“And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.”
Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more. The first dream — and the decision to tell it — is the provocative act that deepens the existing resentment. The application: the wisdom of sharing a dream that confirms your elevation over those who already hate you is questionable. Joseph tells the dream; the hatred increases.
