Instead of the usual interpretation as an Horatio Alger success story, the text proposes that we are presented with a cautionary tale of high achievement and the pursuit of success. In the context of the larger biblical narrative, Josephs short-term success leads to the enslavement of his descendants and the centuries-long derailment of the destiny of the Children of Israel. The self-limiting nature of the pursuit of power is just one of the themes illuminated in this work.</p>...3446785The Joseph Paradox412503https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-joseph-paradox-9780786489824/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3204575/9d3689d8-3156-43e0-9789-5a21e6971e8c.jpg?v=638385026261230000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20149780786489824_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_<p>This book is a reader-friendly treatment of the Joseph story--one of the most popular tales in the Bible.
