How do we know that Jesus is portrayed as a servant in Joseph's story?

Answered in 1 source

Joseph’s life serves as a type pointing to Jesus Christ as the ultimate servant of God.

Joseph's role in Genesis 39 illustrates how he serves God faithfully despite hardship, paralleling the servant role of Christ. In Isaiah 42, God refers to Jesus as His servant, chosen and upheld by Him, reflecting the same themes found in Joseph’s story. Both Joseph and Christ were deeply beloved yet faced rejection and adversity, emphasizing that their missions were ultimately to serve and redeem God's people. The Scriptures reveal that, like Joseph, Christ was appointed to fulfill the will of God as our Redeemer, which further establishes the truth of who He is.
