Description

Why does the Torah expound at such length about Yosef's economic policies during the years of famine ( http://alhatorah.org/Yosef%27s_Econom... ). How are they relevant to the history of the Nation of Israel? Moreover, what can we learn about Yosef through the episode? Does the story portray him in a positive or negative light? Were his policies evidence of economic genius or of exploitation? This Torahcast, brought to you by ALHATORAH.ORG, featuring Neima Novetsky, explores these questions and more.
