Parashah 9 Vayeshev (He continued
living) 37:1-40:23
37:1
(i) וישׁב יעקב בארץ מגורי אביו בארץ כנען׃
Vayeshev Yaakov beeretz megurei aviv beeretz Kenaan:
And Yaakov dwelt in the land of his father’s sojournings, in the land of Kenaan.
37:2 אלה תלדות יעקב יוסף בן־שׁבע־עשׂרה שׁנה היה רעה את־אחיו בצאן והוא נער את־בני בלהה ואת־בני זלפה נשׁי אביו ויבא יוסף את־דבתם רעה אל־אביהם׃
Eleh toldot Yaakov Yosef ben-sheva-esreh shana hayah roeh et-ekhav batzon vehu naar et-benei Bilhah veet-benei Zilpah neshei aviv vayave Yosef et-dibatam raah el-avihem:
These are the generations of Yaakov Yosef, being seventeen years old, was pasturing the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives. And Yosef brought a evil report of them to their father.
37:3 וישׂראל אהב את־יוסף מכל־בניו כי־בן־זקנים הוא לו ועשׂה לו כתנת פסים׃
VeYisrael ahav et-Yosef mikol-banav ki-ven-zekunim hu lo veasah lo Ketonet Pasim:
Now Yisrael loved Yosef more than all his children, because he was son his old age: and he made him a Coat of many stripes
37:4
And when his achim (brethren) saw that avihem loved him more
than all his achim (brethren), they hated him, and could not speak
l'shalom unto him.
37:5
And Yosef (יוסף) dreamed a dream, and he told [it] his achim (brethren):
and they hated him yet the more.
37:6
And he said unto them:
Hear, I pray you, this chalom (dream) which I
have dreamed:
37:7
For, hinnei, we [were] binding sheaves in the field, and,
lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, hinnei, your
sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.
37:8
And his achim (brethren) said to him,
Shalt thou indeed reign over
us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated
him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
37:9
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his achim (brethren),
and said, hinnei, I have dreamed a dream more; and, hinnei, the
sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.
37:10
And he told [it] to his avi, and to his achim (brethren): and
his avi rebuked him, and said unto him, What [is] this dream
that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy achim (brethren)
indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
37:11
And his achim (brethren) envied him; but his avi observed the
saying.
37:12
(ii)
And his achim (brethren) went to feed avihem's flock in
Shekhem.
37:13
And Yisrael said unto Yosef (יוסף):
Do not thy achim (brethren) feed [the
flock] in Shekhem?
Come, and I will send thee unto them.
And he
said to him: Here [am I].
37:14
And he (Yaakov) said to him:
Go, I pray thee, see whether it be
well with thy achim (brethren), and well with the flocks; and bring me
word again. So he sent him out of the valley of Hevron, and he
came to Shekhem.
37:15
And a certain man found him, and, hinnei, [he was]
wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What
seekest thou?
37:16
And he said, I seek my achim (brethren): tell me, I pray thee,
where they feed [their flocks].
37:17
And the man said:
They are departed hence; for I heard
them say, Let us go to Dotan. And Yosef (יוסף) went after his
achim (brethren), and found them in Dotan.
37:18
And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near
unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.
37:19
And they said one to another, hinnei, this dreamer comes.
37:20
Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into
some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him:
and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
37:21
And Reu'ven heard [it], and he delivered him out of their
hands; and said, Let us not kill him.
37:22
And Reu'ven said unto them:
Shed no blood, [but] cast him
into this pit that [is] in the midbar, and lay no hand upon
him; that he might rid him out of their hands, to deliver him
to his avi again.
37:23
(iii)
And it came to pass, when Yosef (יוסף) was come unto his
achim (brethren), that they stript Yosef (יוסף) out of his ketonet, [his] ketonet
ha passim that [was] on him;
(Yochanan 19:23)
37:24
And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit
[was] empty, [there was] no water in it.
37:25
And they sat down to eat lechem: and they lifted up their
eyes and looked, and, hinnei, a caravan of Yishm'elim came
from Gil'ad with their camels bearing spicery and balm and
myrrh, going to carry [it] down to Mitzrayim.
37:26
And Yehudah said unto his achim (brethren):
What profit [is it] if
we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?
37:27
Come, and let us sell him to the Yishm'elim, and let not
our hand be upon him; for he [is] our brother [and] our flesh.
And his achim (brethren) were content.
37:28
Then there passed by Midyanim merchantmen; and they drew
and lifted up Yosef (יוסף) out of the pit, and sold Yosef (יוסף) to the
Yishm'elim for twenty [pieces] of kesef (silver): and they brought
Yosef (יוסף) into Mitzrayim.
37:29
And Reu'ven returned unto the pit; and, hinnei, Yosef (יוסף)
[was] not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
37:30
And he returned unto his achim (brethren), and said, The child
[is] not; and I, whither shall I go?
37:31
And they took Yosef (יוסף)'s coat, and killed a kid of the
goats, and dipped the kesonet in the blood;
37:32
And they sent the ketonet ha passim, and they brought
[it] to avihem; and said, This have we found: know now
whether it [be] the kesonet benecha or no.
37:33
And he knew it, and said, [It is] the kesonet beni; an evil
beast hath devoured him; Yosef (יוסף) is without doubt rent in
pieces.
37:34
And Ya'akov rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his
loins, and mourned for his son many days.
37:35
And all his banim and all his banot rose up to comfort
him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go
down into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his avi wept
for him.
37:36
And the Midyanim sold him into Mitzrayim unto Potiphar, an
officer of Paroh's, [and] captain of the guard.

Yosef view as the type of Yeshua
(ketonet/tunic reaching. to palms and soles) the multi-colored garments as Kotonet Pasim in Hebrew. The word translated as pasim means the palm of the hand and it is strips, denoting both a pattern of interwoven lines and different colors, In the shemetic tribe system the leader of the clan wears a long sleeved tunic in which ends of the sleeves are greatly belled.
When this leader passes on that
leadershipto the next in line (usually his oldest son), he passes on this long sleeved tunic with the large belled sleeves.
Just a Rabbincal view point know as Coat of many color stripes or Garment of certain marks. It was the garment of the priesthood. No wonder they were jealous of Yosef, they being the elder brothers and Yosef was the younger in the patriarchal line coming down from Avraham.
From the study of Hebrew Letter Chaf and Pay are the secret of the Geulah or letters of redemption this two word has Messianic view point of the Hebrew letter כְּ denotes the Mashiach first come as Yosef; then the Hebrew letter פַּ denotes the Mashiach second coming as Ben David King of Kings and Lord of Lords and relate to end times
Did a Gematria search the equivalent and value and cross reference
Pasim (stripe color) Gen 37:3 = has the Gemaria value of 190 = כְּתֹ֥נֶת פַּסִּֽים׃
The word "The End" Gen 6:13 occurred 53 times = also has the Gemaria value of 190 = קֵ֤ץ
