Reply To: Natan (Haftarat Chayei Sarah) vs. Yosef (Parshat Vayeshev-Miketz)

DaasYochid, you mean that Yosef erred by seeking to do hishtadlut for himself whereas Natan did the right thing by his hishtadlut not for himself?

coffee addict, Yosef was in prison. So he asked twice; how is that so different from asking only once? Why did Natan “have” to say everything he said?

I thank you both but your answers seem awfully arbitrary. What sources can you cite?

Thanks!
