so good morning lot's going on this week let's start with the paraa this week's paraa is micke Kates um which is the middle of the story of Joseph um we learned last week how Joseph was kidnapped when he was 17 years old by his own brothers sold as a slave taken to Egypt where he was um worked in the house of the king's Butcher and over there he was accused by the butcher's wife attempted to seduce him and when he refused her advances she accused him of rape of attempted rape and he's thrown rape of attempted rape and he's thrown into prison over there he meets the king's um Baker and um wine maker and they both have dreams and he successfully interprets their dreams and that is how the and he asks the wine maker when you are reinstated by Pharaoh please mention by name to Pharaoh that he should get me out of here and the wine maker forgets about him and so now this week's para called Mikes opens up Mikes means the end it was at the end of two years two years later after two more two years two years later after two more years in prison Pharaoh has a dream he has two dreams and the first Dream he sees seven fat cows coming up from the Nile and then seven seven skinny cows coming up after them and then the skinny cows eat the fat cows and then he wakes up then he has a nut falls asleep again there's another dream this time there's a stalk of grain with seven ears which are the things that come out of the with the wheat grows on and uh coming up that look very healthy and good and then seven parched and weak bad ears of grain
