Genesis 42:6 KJV [6] And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph’s brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth. https://bible.com/bible/1/gen.42.6.KJV
😇… Interesting, such a big man like Joseph so why did he personally sell to the people.I guess because as a leader u do thr lost important of things and delegate all others and at this time bread 🥪 was the most important thing the world needed
Genesis 42:24 KJV [24] And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes. https://bible.com/bible/1/gen.42.24.KJV
Joseph liek David ✡ was wise and soft hearted at the same time hard and witty.See how he maximized the famine till the people sold themselves over.Yet wept and forgave his brothers whiles still playing them by not revealing his identity immediately
