The Story of Joseph
This story of Joseph is one of my favorite stories in the book of Genesis. The moment where Joseph reveals himself to his brothers and in that revelation he weeps so loudly that even Pharaoh cares about it. This reunion of two brothers who have never met is this powerful moment only to be superseded by the moment when Joseph is reunited with his father Jacob with his father Israel. It is just remarkable. What's also remarkable is the tears. Why would you cry? Why would we cry when good things are happening?"
