What does the name Joseph actually mean—and how does that meaning shape the stories of both Joseph in Genesis and Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus?In this episode of What’s in the Name?, Dr. Mario Melendez explores the Hebrew meaning of Yosef, “to add” or “to increase,” and traces that idea through Scripture.From Rachel’s prayer for another son, to Joseph being taken away and restored, to the preservation of Israel during famine, the theme of addition and subtraction runs throughout the Genesis story.Then we turn to the New Testament, where another Joseph adds something very different: honor instead of shame, protection instead of accusation, and obedience in the face of uncertainty.Two Josephs. Two stories. One name with remarkable significance.In this episode:The Hebrew meaning of JosephWhy Rachel gave him this nameThe irony of “addition” and “subtraction” in GenesisJoseph’s role in preserving IsraelEphraim and Manasseh and the double inheritanceHow Joseph’s story connects to Genesis 50:20The significance of Joseph, the earthly father of JesusHow both Josephs point toward preservation, restoration, and God’s purposes📖 “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good…” — Genesis 50:20Study deeper with GlossaHouse:🌐 https://glossahouse.com📚 Classes (GlossaHouse U):https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 Digital Libraries:https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library🎧 Listen to ProveText:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiRApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462📲 Follow GlossaHouse:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouseFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse
