| Summary: | Gen 47,2 states that Joseph took five of his brothers to an audience with the Pharaoh. The number five has scarcely been commented on in this context. Adding Joseph himself, the number six results, which is half of twelve. A half represents the whole. Thus, Joseph counts himself among his brothers when facing the Pharaoh. In Gen 47,2 wird erzählt, dass Josef zur Audienz beim Pharao fünf Brüder mitgenommen hat. Die Zahl fünf ist in diesem Zusammenhang bisher kaum beachtet worden. Wenn man Josef selbst hinzunimmt, ergibt sich sechs, die Hälfte von zwölf. Die Hälfte steht für das Ganze. Damit reiht sich Josef vor dem Pharao in die Reihe der Brüder ein. |
