In spite of Joseph supposedly rising to be second only to the pharaoh himself, there is nothing in the extensive Egyptian records that mentions him, directly or even indirectly. The seven years of plenty and the seven lean years can not be identified. Historically, the change in status of the Egyptian landholders, from owners to serfs, seems to have occurred much earlier than in the biblical account. Thus it is not possible to identify which pharaoh would have been in Genesis.
