In the Book of Genesis [5] Joseph is Jacob 's eleventh son and Rachel 's first son, and known in the Hebrew Bible as Yossef ben-Yaakov .[6] New Testament the most notable two are Joseph , the husband of Mary , the mother of Jesus ; and Joseph of Arimathea , a secret disciple of Jesus who supplied the tomb in which Jesus was buried.
Etymology
[ edit ]
The Bible offers two explanations for the origins of the name Yosef : first, it is compared to the word asaf ' taken away ' : "And she conceived, and bore a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach"; Yosef is then identified with the similar root /ysp/, meaning ' add ' : "And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son."[7] The Jewish Encyclopedia theophoric name referencing the Tetragrammaton , and in fact his name is spelled Jehoseph , with the theophoric first syllable 'Jeho' [8] yadah meaning "praise", "fame" and the word asaf .[citation needed
