215 Egypt’s Best-kept Secret

Genesis 43:1-34; 44:1-34; 45:1-3, TBC Book One, Chapter 29
Death threatened every family in Canaan, including the tribe of Israel. His family had eaten all the grain they purchased from Egypt, and the famine was still severe. Israel summoned his sons and told them to get more food in Egypt. They knew it wasn’t that simple. Only Judah had the boldness to reason with his father. 

“We can’t do that. The man in Egypt solemnly warned us to bring Benjamin. We won’t go unless we can take him.”

So Israel’s sons set out for Egypt, and Benjamin went with them. When they arrived, they asked to see the governor. . . . 
The next morning, Joseph gave his steward strict orders concerning them: “Fill their sacks with grain and return their silver with it. Put my silver cup in Benjamin’s sack. When they leave, go after them. . . .”
