📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative of Genesis, Jacob is mourning the presumed death of his favorite son, Joseph, who was actually sold into slavery by his jealous brothers. They deceived Jacob by showing him Joseph's coat covered in animal blood, leading him to believe a wild beast had killed his son. In ancient Near Eastern cultures, tearing clothes and wearing sackcloth was a customary way to express deep grief and humility during times of loss.
