He was thrown in a well, a dark, well alone, then he was put into slavery sold as a slave. And then he was accused and slandered. And then he was put in prison, test after test after test, trial and hardship after trial and hardship, after trial and hardship.
And now he is in front of the people who made this happen to him,
What punishment will he give them?
What will he tell them?
He said, Do you remember what you did to use of?
Who is this person? How could he know of what we did to use of nobody knows except for the 10 of us, and use of himself?
How could this man know who is this person? And then they asked him Are you use?
