Joseph’s Gifts

Project Likkutei Sichos | June 25, 2025

The Rebbe’s father explains that Yosef also received severance gifts after leaving Potiphar’s servitude. The main gift was the angel Michael teaching him seventy languages, so that Pharaoh’s servants would recognize and respect his authority.

Pharaoh gifted him the signet ring and staff which were the symbols of his ascension to viceroy of Egypt. And Potiphar himself gave his daughter’s hand in marriage to Yosef.

The same questions asked above can be asked here as well: Why did Yosef receive his main gift, the seventy languages, from the angel and not from his master? And the gifts he received were not regenerative gifts.
