Joseph, a tailor, had a beautiful coat of many colors just like the Joseph in the Torah. When his coat rips, he's unsure of what to do next. Should he try to preserve it, or start fresh? In this beloved story retold by Cantor Ellen Dreskin, Joseph learns an important lesson about moving forward. For another version of this story, read Something from Nothing by Phoebe Gilman.
