Joseph is remarkable in his ability to forgive his brothers and see his years of suffering as God’s will. He and his brothers are paradigms of self-transformation. Joseph’s rapprochement with his brothers helps us to understand the connection between taking responsibility for what we have done, while acknowledging that there is a grand divine narrative at play.
