Genesis 44:17 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 44:17

15 And Joseph said to them, “What deed is this you have done? Did you not know that such a man as I can certainly practice divination?”

16 Then Judah said, “What shall we say to my lord? What shall we speak? Or how shall we clear ourselves? God has ^afound out the iniquity of your servants; here ^bwe are, my lord’s slaves, both we and he also with whom the cup was found.”

17 But he said, ^a“Far be it from me that I should do so; the man in whose hand the cup was found, he shall be my slave. And as for you, go up in peace to your father.”

Judah Intercedes for Benjamin

18 Then Judah came near to him and said: “O my lord, please let your servant speak a word in my lord’s hearing, and ^ado not let your anger burn against your servant; for you are even like Pharaoh.

19 My lord asked his servants, saying, ‘Have you a father or a brother?’
