He was removed from his normal surroundings, sold for twenty pieces of silver and cast into a pit, where he remained for three days. This indicates an initiation. Then he comes to Egypt where his activities bring new life. And now we have finally indicated the transition which began at that time from the knowledge of God in the stars to the knowledge of man. Joseph was rejected because he had dreams. He had the following dream: Sun, Moon and eleven stars bowed down before him. The eleven stars are the eleven signs of the Zodiac. He felt himself to be the twelfth. The symbolism of the Star-Religion was now led over into the human. In the twelve brothers, the starting point of the twelve tribes' the knowledge of God in the stars was led over into the personal. “Now you surely do not wish to assert,” said his father—“that your brothers will bow down to you.” Here the change is given us. The divine knowledge of the stars is replaced by a knowledge attached to the personal human. This finds its form in the Mosaic law.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture XXXI","site_heading":"Root Races and Sub-Races: From Atlantis to Fifth Root-Race","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Und nun haben Sie in feiner Art angedeutet den Umschwung, der damals eintrat von der Sternengotteskunde zu der Menschenkunde. Joseph wurde ausgestoßen, weil er Träume hatte. Er hatte den Traum: Vor ihm neigten sich Sonne, Mond und elf Sterne. Die elf Sterne sind die elf Zeichen des Tierkreises. Er empfindet sich als den zwölften. Das Symbol der Sternenreligion wird jetzt in das Menschliche hinübergeführt. In den zwölf Brüdern, dem Ausgangspunkt der zwölf Stämme, wird die Sternengotteskunde heruntergeleitet in das Persönliche. Nun, du wirst doch nicht behaupten wollen - sagt der Vater -, daß vor dir sich neigen werden deine Brüder. - Da haben wir den Umschwung gegeben: Es wird übersetzt die Himmelssternenkunde in eine Kunde, die haftet am Persönlich-Menschlichen.
