Joseph
Preservation in Egypt and the wider government
The KJV records Joseph’s betrayal, suffering, exaltation, preservation of many lives, reunion, and death. Jasher adds trading details, court narratives, wars, and administrative reports.
The governing order
Scripture establishes the line; Jasher supplies additional detail.
Additional narratives are retained as testimony and always identified by source.
Where Jasher adds an identity, event, age, or conflict absent from Scripture, the distinction remains visible.
