Just Like Joseph

Seasons of Gray is based on the Biblical story of Joseph. The life of Brady Gray holds many similarities to the life of Joseph. This modern-day story takes the lessons of forgiveness and redemption and turns them into a cinematic masterpiece.

Joseph was the favorite son in his family and was loved deeply by his father. His father was not afraid to show his obvious preference for Joseph over his brothers, and this wounded many of them. The same is true in Brady's life. He is favored by his father, and this causes tension and jealousy to arise amongst the brothers.

In the Bible, Joseph's brothers saw him approaching them and quickly hatched a plot to kill him. Their plans involved throwing him in a cistern where he would be devoured by a wild animal. They knew their father would grieve deeply, but they hoped it would eliminate the prejudices that had been building up in their family. One of the brothers, Reuben, did not want to kill Joseph. Instead, he suggested that they throw him into the empty cistern and leave him there, but not lay a hand of harm in them. They did just that, but then saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming along. Instead of leaving him in the cistern to either die or be rescued, they sold him into slavery to the Ishmaelites. They dipped his robe in blood and brought it back to their father to convince him that Joseph was dead. In the same way, Brady was driven off the ranch by his brothers and physically harmed. There, he was found and entered into a new job.

In Joseph's story, he was sold to Potiphar, Captain of the Guard to Pharaoh. Here, Potiphar's wife tried to seduce him, but he refused to give in to her. She became angry at the way he rejected her and stood strong in his faith, so she framed him for trying to assault her. Since she was the wife of a noted official, her story was believed to be true and Joseph was thrown in jail. In Seasons of Gray, Brady was given a new job that he enjoyed very much. Unfortunately, when things started to go well for him, the wife of his boss tried to seduce him and he refused to give in. She then framed him for assaulting her, exactly like what happened between Joseph and Potiphar's wife.

Joseph was thrown into jail for a crime he didn't commit, exactly as Brady was. There, they both decided to overcome the terrible things and the hatred shown them and decided to forgive. In the end of their stories, both are given the opportunity to condemn their brothers and give them what they truly deserve. However, God reveals his character to them and gives them the strength that is needed to forgive the wrongs done to them.

Seasons of Gray lines up very closely with the Biblical story of Joseph, complete with themes of forgiveness and the power of mercy. This film is gripping and powerful, telling an amazing story as well as teaching an important lesson.

Seasons of Gray is rated PG-13 by the MPAA for a scene of violence and some thematic elements. We always recommend that you watch the film first to decide if it's right for your family.
