Genesis 37:3

Israel loved Joseph more than his other sons because he was the son he had in his old age [91 years old, with Rachel, whom he loved more than Leah, see Gen. 29:30], and he had a special coat made for him. [The word for "special coat" (Hebr. ketonet passim) can mean long-sleeved or multicolored. It probably had woven threads of other colors or patterns. It was a beautiful, ornate coat that attracted attention.]
