  • Yosef’s final message from his father: “Yosef is a charming son, a charm to the eye. Girls stepped up to see him. They embittered him, fought with him, and the archers hated him. Nonetheless, he remained steadfast and became a shepherd, providing for Israel. Hashem will help you and bless you with the blessing of heavens and blessings of the depths below. Let the blessings of my father be upon your head.”
