Genesis 44:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 44:5

3 As soon as the morning dawned, the men were sent away, they and their donkeys.

4 When they had gone out of the city, and were not yet far off, Joseph said to his steward, “Get up, follow the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, ‘Why have you ^arepaid evil for good?

5 Is not this the one from which my lord drinks, and with which he indeed practices divination? You have done evil in so doing.’ ”

6 So he overtook them, and he spoke to them these same words.

7 And they said to him, “Why does my lord say these words? Far be it from us that your servants should do such a thing.
