Editorial Reviews

This kids-oriented animated Bible tale follows the exploits of Joseph, whose brothers became jealous and threw him down a well after his father gave him a splendid coat of many colors. Later in life, when Joseph is in a position to gain vengeance on his older siblings, he instead chooses divine forgiveness.

4.0 out of 5 stars "The Story of Joseph & His Brothers" in the Beginner's Bible, December 5, 2000

This review is from: Beginner's Bible: Joseph & His Brothers [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is the Biblical tale of Joseph in a form that's good for kids. It tells the story quite faithfully, except for leaving out the more disagreeable parts of the story, like Potiphar and his wife. And, even after his brothers throw Joseph down the pit, there follows a long sequence about his brothers seeking some lost sheep, just to show that they weren't really all that bad after all.

Being for kids, the Joseph here is a cute looking character, in bright Egyptian style, complete with colourful chariot and horses. And, naturally, once he makes up with his brothers, he sings a nice song just to round off the story.
