Verse 4
"And his brothers saw that his father loved him more than all his brethren; and they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him."
"It was the partiality of Jacob toward Joseph that made his brothers hate him."[11] The additional factor of Joseph's talebearing was not mentioned by Keil, but there is no way this could not have been an additional factor. The immaturity and lack of discernment on Joseph's part are also visible. He evidently enjoyed the distinction placed upon him, as evidenced at once in his foolishly relating those dreams to his family.
