Pharaoh

Pharaoh (of Joseph)

Pharaoh is the title used for the ancient Egyptian monarchs. In the Book of Genesis, the Pharaoh during Joseph's time plays a significant role in the narrative, particularly in relation to Joseph's rise to power and the events leading to the migration of Jacob's family to Egypt. In order to differentiate this Pharaoh from others mentioned in the Bible, he is often referred to as "Pharaoh of Joseph" or "the Pharaoh who knew not Joseph." Pharaoh is also used to refer to the ruling household or dynasty--as a broader term.
