Joseph’s brothers to be divulged in ‘Prophet Joseph’

Joseph’s brothers commit a blunder in iFilm English TV’s historical series ‘Prophet Joseph’.

Joseph’s brothers carried out their sinister plan and came back to the village with Joseph’s shirt stained with blood.

“This is just as the Prophet of God’s dream in which wolves were chasing a child,” says Prophet Jacob’s wife.

“No, Joseph wasn’t hurt by any wolves. This shirt is proof of that. If the wolf devoured Joseph, why didn’t it rip his shirt? Why is the shirt intact?

I don’t know what really happened or what you’ve done to my son but what happened was the result of your carnal soul and your very carnal soul displayed to you as good what you did. There is no doubt Satan helped with this,” Prophet Jacob says.   

Don't miss the seventh episode of the 45-part series on iFilm TV tonight at 23:00 GMT and you can watch it now via the channel’s website.

Made by Farajollah Salahshour, the series is the Iranian version of the very beloved story of Prophet Joseph, the son of Prophet Jacob who guided the Israelites to pray to the One and Only God.

“God annunciates to him about the next prophet, who will be from his own generation. One night, his son, Joseph, dreams about the sun, the moon and eleven stars which kneel in front of him. He tells Jacob, who advises him not to tell his brothers about the dream,” a synopsis of the series by iFilm English website reads.

Prophet Joseph is dear to Jews, Christians and Muslims alike. For centuries, the story of his life has been told over and over in many different ways and in many different languages.

The most notable names on the cast list are Mostafa Zamani, Jafar Dehqan, Mahmoud Pakniyyat, Jahanbakhsh Soltani, Elham Hamidi, and Rahim Norouzi.
