My mate says: A lot of the commentary (including Rashi) says that 41:55 “says” that Joseph told the Egyptians to circumcise themselves in that verse. Is my translation bad or what? I don’t see it saying that explicitly.

Joseph shaved before meeting Pharaoh. 41.14

Joseph establishes that it’s not himself, but God, who can interpret the dreams. Call me paranoid but I’m suspicious.

42.2 Jacob and his family incapable of being self-sufficient

42.16 vs 42.19 — send one vs send 10... why the reversal?

43.11 makes it seem like the famine wasn’t exactly a famine in Canaan

43.32 — the *Egyptians* find it abominable to eat with the Jews! Based! Segregated lunch tables.

From Wikipedia page on A. Philip Randolph, desegregating hero:

In 1950, along with Roy Wilkins, Executive Secretary of the NAACP, and, Arnold Aronson,[20] a leader of the National Jewish Community Relations Advisory Council, [A. Philip Randolph] founded the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights (LCCR). LCCR has been a major civil rights coalition. It coordinated a national legislative campaign on behalf of every major civil rights law since 1957.

Needless to say, I blame American whites for letting the desegregation happen.

I also want to talk about Brundle's comment from last night that "nothing of historical note" ever happened outside of cities -- in relation to this book I'm reading by Evola. I think it's relevant to the question of whether there's any truth to the standard antisemitic canards about Jews being "parasitic." The language there is probably too harsh, but urbanites do seem to live at a "second order," and they seem to take for granted the production done by the rural people and to see it as an endless resource to be exploited. And maybe it is (?).
