Joseph was sold into slavery by his ten jealous brothers. Here is the classic tension: an individuator, a good and holy man, sold out by his family, his brothers, the nonindividuators of middling moral and spritual stature at best. As a jealous mob, their spiritual and moral inclinations lead them into degenerate, treacherous actions.
This archetypal rivalry has repeated itself millions of times in human history. The Bible reveals the human condition, warts and all. The sinners offending an individuator should be forgiven by the individuator as God forgives the sins of all.
The maligned individuator should seek redress and justice, but also move on with his life. He has his own excellence to hone and perfect while he still has time.
