Jacob sends his ten sons to buy grain in Egypt during a severe famine but keeps Benjamin home out of fear for his safety, revealing his distrust of his other sons even twenty years after Joseph's disappearance.

• Joseph, now governor of Egypt, recognizes his brothers when they bow before him, fulfilling his prophetic dreams
• Joseph tests his brothers by accusing them of being spies and demanding they bring Benjamin
• The brothers confess their guilt about selling Joseph when they think he can't understand them
• Finding their money mysteriously returned in their sacks terrifies the brothers and Jacob

Our journey through Genesis continues to reveal how God uses difficult circumstances to protect and continue the Messianic line while bringing about reconciliation and growth in the line of Israel, even decades after terrible sins have been committed.
