Genesis 43-46

The Brothers Return to Egypt

[14] and may God Almighty grant you compassion before the man, so that he will release to you your other brother and Benjamin. And as for me, if I am bereaved of my children, I am bereaved." [Gen 43:14 LSB]

[16] "Go, gather all the Jews who are found in Susa, and fast for me; do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my young women also will fast in the same way. And thus I will go in to the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish." [Est 4:16 LSB]

Joseph Sees Benjamin

The Brothers Fall Before Joseph

Judah Remains Instead of Benjamin

Joseph Sends for Jacob

[5] "So now do not be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life. [Gen 45:5 LSB]

[27] Yet they told him all the words of Joseph that he had spoken to them, and he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him. Then the spirit of their father Jacob revived. [28] And Israel said, "It is enough! My son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die." [Gen 45:27-28 LSB]

Jacob Moves to Egypt

[2] And God spoke to Israel in visions of the night and said, "Jacob, Jacob." And he said, "Here I am." [3] And He said, "I am God, the God of your father; do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you a great nation there. [4] "I Myself will go down with you to Egypt, and I Myself will also bring you up again; and Joseph will close your eyes with his hand." [Gen 46:2-4 LSB]
