ברכות-נה

In one of his famous dreams, יוסף dreamt that the sun, the moon and 11 stars bowed down to him. As חז״ל tell us, the sun represents his father, the moon his mother and the 11 stars represent his brothers. Someone is missing from this dream. Where is his sister, Dinah? חז״ל inform us that from the incident with Shechem, Dinah became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter, Osnat, who was sent to מצרים. And whom did Osnat marry? יוסף! That means that Dinah was his mother-in-law. And even in his wildest dreams, he didn’t dream that his mother-in-law would bow down to him.
