He Forgives Them!
The whole scene is too delicious! It couldn’t be scripted any better. It sets up to be the ultimate story of revenge. There are the brothers. They are before the one they believe to be the second-in-command in all the land of Egypt. They believe his name to be Zaphenath-Paneah (Genesis 41:45). Little do they know the man is really their own brother, Joseph! Their brother Joseph whom they had cruelly sold 22 years earlier.
