Joseph? Son of Jacob & Rachel?

Well, Benjamin was his kid brother (from his same mother Rachel), then there are all the other ten half-brothers from Jacob and Lea (Leah?), and from Jacob and his two concubines: Bilhah and Zilpah.

From Leah: Ruben (Reuben), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Isacar (Issachar), ZabulÃ³n (Zebulun).
From Bilhah: Dan, Neftali (Naphtali)
From Zilpah: Gad, Aser (Asher)

He also had a half-sister named Dina (or Dinah), daughther of Leah. He may had more sisters but you know daughthers names are rarely mentioned in jews geanologies lists.

I'm not sure of the question however the 12 brothers were the fathers of the 12 tribes of Israel. Joseph was the youngest. Does this help?

Yoseph ben Yaacov had ten half-brothers and one full brother, Benyamin.

Leah's sons: Reuven, the first-born of Yaacov
Simeon, Levi, Yehudah, Issachar and Zebulun

Rachel's sons: Yoseph and Benyamin

Bilhah's sons: Dan and Naphtali

Zilpah's sons: Gad and Asher

All these sons were the heads of their tribes except Yoseph, whose sons Ephraim and Mannasseh founded "half-tribes".
