Genesis 40:15-17
Amplified Bible
15 For in fact I was [a]taken (stolen) from the land of the Hebrews by [unlawful] force, and even here I have done nothing for which they should put me in the dungeon.”
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation [of the dream] was good, he said to Joseph, “I also dreamed, and [in my dream] there were three cake baskets on my head; 17 and in the top basket there were some of all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, but the birds [of prey] were eating [these foods] out of the basket on my head.”

- Genesis 40:15 The word here is much less personal than “kidnap.” Joseph was considered a “thing”—not a person.
