'''Manasseh''' was the first born son of [[Joseph]] and his [[Egyptian]] wife Asenath, daughter of Potiphera, priest of On. (Gen 41:51) His brother was [[Ephraim]]. The story is told in the [[Bible]] in the book of [[Genesis]].
The descendents of both brothers became part of the [[Twelve tribes of Israel]]. When [[Jacob]] gave his blessing on the sons of Joseph, he put his right hand on the younger, Ephraim, instead of on Manasseh. Joseph tried to correct this, but Jacob told him that while both brothers would be great, Ephraim would be greater than his brother Manasseh. (Gen 48)
