Show Notes
Jacob and his sons are reduced to poverty by the famine that has spread from Egypt and into the Promised Land. Jacob sends ten of his sons down to Egypt to buy grain. Joseph recognizes his brothers, interrogates them, imprisons Simeon and lets the others go, threatening that if they don't bring Benjamin with them next time, that they won't be allowed to buy more grain. When the brothers return and tell their father Jacob what had happened, his depression deepens. The loss of yet another son and the prospect of losing Benjamin, his only living reminder of his beloved Rachel, was too much for him to bear.
