Contradiction with Proverbs 22:7
This verse says, "The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender," contrasting the notion of Joseph in Genesis 42:6 being a ruler despite his humble, servitude beginnings.
Proverbs 22:7: The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower [is] servant to the lender. [the lender: Heb. the man that lendeth]
Contradiction with Matthew 23:11
States, "But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant," which contradicts the situation in Genesis 42:6 where Joseph, once a servant, is now a ruler, seemingly opposite to this teaching.
Matthew 23:11: But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
Contradiction with Mark 9:35
"If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all," presents a contrast to Joseph who's first among his brothers despite his initial position as the youngest and once-servant, as indicated in Genesis 42:6.
Mark 9:35: And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, [the same] shall be last of all, and servant of all.
Contradiction with Luke 22:26-27
These verses emphasize serving others as true greatness, contradicting the notion of Joseph, a servant becoming a ruler, as shown in Genesis 42:6.
Luke 22:26-27: But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
Paradox #1
The potential contradiction or conflict in this scenario could be the issue of forgiveness versus justice. Joseph, who is now in a position of power, encounters his brothers who previously betrayed him. There might be a struggle between showing compassion and forgiveness to them, or seeking some form of justice or retribution for their past actions. This tension between forgiving and holding others accountable for wrongdoings can present a moral dilemma.
