520 |a This article argues for the existence of two competing voices/theologies in the Joseph story, and that these voices do not line up with traditional source-critical observations. One voice is represented by both the speech and actions of Joseph, the other by the speech and actions of Jacob. The former posits a worldview in which God’s dealings with humanity support a benevolent cosmic order; the latter subverts this view, insisting that God, acting through Jacob, is not above inflicting evil on humanity to forward divine purposes. This reading is accomplished through a close literary examination (utilizing Bakhtinian socio-linguistic categories, primarily) of the discourse and actions of both primary characters.
