Genesis 43:15 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 43:15

13 Take your brother also, and arise, go back to the man.

14 And may God ^aAlmighty ^bgive you mercy before the man, that he may release your other brother and Benjamin. ^cIf I am bereaved, I am bereaved!”

15 So the men took that present and Benjamin, and they took double money in their hand, and arose and went ^adown to Egypt; and they stood before Joseph.

16 When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ^asteward of his house, “Take these men to my home, and slaughter¹ an animal and make ready; for these men will dine with me at noon.”

17 Then the man did as Joseph ordered, and the man brought the men into Joseph’s house.

18 Now the men were ^aafraid because they were brought into Joseph’s house; and they said, “It is because of the money, which was returned in our sacks the first time, that we are brought in, so that he may¹ make a case against us and seize us, to take us as slaves with our donkeys.”
