Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
Answer:
The musical "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" features music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice. The earliest form of the musical ran for 15 minutes in 1968. It went through several stages, appearing on the West End of London in 1973 and on Broadway in 1982. The song "Jacob and Sons" introduces many of the characters in the show. It appeared early in the first act and is sung by many of the members of the cast.
These are the sons of the Biblical Patriarch, Jacob.
He had six sons with his elder wife, Leah. In birth order, they were Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. In addition, Leah was the mother of Jacob's daughter, Dinah. By Leah's handmaiden, Zilpah, Jacob had two more sons, Gad and Asher.
Jacob had two sons, Dan and Naphtali, with Bilhah, the handmaiden of Rachel, younger wife of Jacob. Finally, Jacob had two sons-Joseph and Benjamin-with Rachel. This complicated family life of Jacob and the others is elaborated on in the later part of the Book of Genesis.
From the twelve sons descended the twelve tribes of Israel.
