The book of the Father

There are two sets of three fathers:
Adam, Seth, Noah The accounts of these are concerned with the spiritual (heavenly) relationship with God. [1]
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob The accounts of these concern the inheritance of land/earth .[2]
The perspective of the book is as a father bragging on his son. "Here is my son. Look at him. There is trouble, but he has it covered."
The bulk of the book speaks of the son Joseph, who is the king of kings. [3]
