This week, the weekly Torah reading Miketz, Joseph interprets
Pharaoh's dreams, becomes viceroy over Egypt, and implements his plan to save the region from famine. Joseph is harsh with his brothers who come to Egypt to buy food, and demands that Benjamin be brought to Egypt. When Benjamin eventually comes he is framed and accused of theft.

Today is the 100th anniversary of General Allenby of the British Army dismounting from his horse and walking thru the Jaffa gate of Jerusalem to receive the official surrender of the city without a single shot being fired. Two years ago we published a photo of this

Weekly Portion: Miketz – December 16 – 28 Kislev |
In this Shabbat’s weekly Torah portion Miketz Genesis 41:1 – 44:17, Joseph’s imprisonment finally ends when Pharaoh dreams of seven fat cows that are swallowed up by seven lean cows, and of seven fat ears of grain swallowed by seven lean ears. Joseph
interprets the dreams to mean that seven years of plenty will be followed by seven years of hunger, and advises Pharaoh to store grain during the plentiful years. Pharaoh appoints Joseph governor of Egypt. Joseph marries Asenath, daughter of Potiphar, and they have two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
In this week’s Haftara Prophets reading I Kings 3:15 – 4:1, opens with the
words “And Solomon awoke, and behold it was a dream,” echoing this week’s Torah portion which opens with Pharaoh’s dreams.
Happy studying!
