Gênesis 42:25-26 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Genesis 42:21-28

Here is, I. The penitent reflection Joseph's brethren made upon the wrong they had formerly done to him, Gen. 42:21. They talked the matter over in the Hebrew tongue, not suspecting that Joseph, whom they took for a native of Egypt, understood them, much less that he was the person they spoke of. 1. They remembered with regret the barbarous cruelty wherewith they persecuted him: We are verily guilty concerning our brother. We do not read that they said this during their three days?... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Genesis 42:25

Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn ,.... Which was as much as they came for: and to restore every man's money into his sack ; the money paid by each for his quantity of corn delivered to him, not into the person's hands, but to be put into his sack privately, and unknown to him: and to give them provision for the way ; sufficient both for themselves and for their cattle, that they might carry the whole of what corn they bought to their families: and thus did he... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Genesis 42:26

And they laded their asses with the corn ,.... Cattle very fit to carry burdens, and no doubt they had each of them one at least: and departed thence ; from the place where Joseph was, and from the land of Egypt. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 42:25

Commanded to fill their sacks - כליהם keleyhem , their vessels; probably large woolen bags, or baskets lined with leather, which, as Sir John Chardin says, are still in use through all Asia, and are called tambellet ; they are covered with leather, the better to resist the wet, and to prevent dirt and sand from mixing with the grain. These vessels, of whatever sort, must have been different from those called שק sak in the twenty-seventh and following verses, which was probably only... read more

They laded their asses - Amounting, no doubt, to several scores, if not hundreds, else they could not have brought a sufficiency of corn for the support of so large a family as that of Jacob. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 42:1-38

The first visit of Joseph's brethren to Egypt. I. THE JOURNEY TO EGYPT ( Genesis 42:1-5 ). 1. The famishing household . Although Canaan was the land of promise, and the family of Jacob the Church of God, yet neither was the one nor the other exempted from the pressure of that heavy famine which had fallen on all surrounding lands and peoples. It is not God's intention that his people should escape participating in the ills of life. Besides enabling them, collectively and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 42:1-38

God's trials of his people. The trial of Joseph is over. Now comes the trial of his brethren and of Jacob. The Spirit of God is at work in all their hearts. True men they were and yet sinful men. Before they can be made partakers of the blessing of Joseph they must pass through the fire. He who is appointed minister of grace to them is the instrument of their trials. Notice— I. The trial is one of CONSCIENCE . "We are verily guilty concerning our brother. "His blood is required."... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 42:25

Then (literally, and) Joseph commanded to fill —literally, commanded, and they ( i.e. Joseph's men) filled— their sacks (rather, vessels or receptacles, כְּלִי ) with corn, and to restore every man's money (literally, their pieces of silver, each ) into his sack ,— שַׂק , saccus, σάκος, σάκκος , sack ( vide Genesis 37:34 ). Joseph "feels it impossible to bargain, with his father and his brethren for bread" (Baumgarten)— and to give them prevision for the... read more

- Joseph and Ten of His Brethren1. שׁבר sheber, “fragment, crumb, hence, grain.” בר bar “pure,” “winnowed,” hence, “corn” (grain).6. שׁליט shallı̂yṭ, “ruler, governor, hence,” Sultan.
