was betrayed by his own disciple. Jesus was stripped of his robe, Joseph was
stripped of his coat of many colors. Joseph was thrown into a pit, Jesus
descended to the lower parts of the earth.
Jesus was blamless, Joseph was blameless yet was cast into prison where he led
the prisoners, Jesus led the captives captive.

one in three days you will be freed.
