In this episode, Joseph’s ten brothers arrive in Egypt to buy food. He immediately recognizes them, but they do not recognize him. Immediately, he accuses them of being spies. They insist that they are honest men, ten of twelve brothers, one of whom is dead and the youngest of whom is still with their father, Jacob. Joseph demands that one of the brothers return to Canaan and fetch the other brother. He puts them in jail to think about this. Afterwards, Joseph comes up with another plan. Nine of the brothers can return home, with the provisions they came to buy, fetch the other brother, and return to Egypt. In the meantime, Simeon will stay in a cell in Egypt. Having no choice, the brothers buy food and return. When they get home they tell Jacob what has happened. Of course, he is upset. He has no intention of letting Benjamin out of his sight which also means that he will never see Simeon again. Making matters worse, the money for the food was in the sacks carrying the provisions. On the way home, only one brother had found the money; now, every brother would be implicated. Eventually, again having no choice, Jacob sends his sons back to Egypt with Benjamin in tow.
