To whom was Joseph first sold?

Explanation:
The event hinges on who was passing by when Joseph’s brothers acted. A caravan of Ishmaelites, traders from the Ishmaelite lineage, was coming from Gilead heading to Egypt, and they took Joseph with them to sell him there. So the first sale is to the Ishmaelites. (Later in the story, he is sold again in Egypt to Potiphar, but the initial sale happens to the Ishmaelites.)
