Prophet Yusuf in other scriptures

Prophet Yusuf is mentioned in the Bible and Jewish texts.

Differences in the Bible and Qur'an

The Qur'an uses an unspecified King in place of the Biblical Pharaoh.

In the Bible, Joseph discloses himself to his brethren before they return to their father the second time after buying corn. The same in the Islamic story but they are compelled to return to Jacob without Benjamin, and the former weeps himself blind. He remains so until the sons have returned from Egypt, bringing with them Joseph's garment healed the patriarch's eyes as soon as he put it to his face (Qur'an 12:96).
