You could have easily identified him by his coat of many colors, at least, until his brothers sold him into slavery. He was the apple of his parents and God’s eyes and a thorn in the flesh of his siblings. Youssef was the 11th son of the 12 sons of Jacob and the first of his mother, Rachel. The boy was named ‘Yossef,’ Hebrew for ‘to add’ or, more specifically, ‘Jehovah will add.’ He was a blessing to them during a period when they were desperate for another child. The first recorded use of this name, or more specifically, its original Hebrew variation, Yossef, may be found in the first book of the Bible, “Genesis.” Believe it or not, he was named this way because his parents were hoping God to bring yet another son into their lives. It was first documented in one of the most revered and inspiring books of all time - the “Bible.” The popularity of this name is well-deserved and comes from a long ancestry line.
