Genesis 45:16-24 - Joseph's Brothers Sent to Canaan

Genesis 45:16-24

When the news reached Pharaoh's house that Joseph's brothers had come, Pharaoh and his servants were pleased. 17Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Tell your brothers, 'Do as follows: Load your animals and return to the land of Canaan. 18Then bring your father and your families and return to me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you shall eat from the fat of the land.' 19You are also directed to tell them: 'Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your young children and your wives, and bring your father and come back. 20But pay no regard to your belongings, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.'" 21So the sons of Israel did as they were told. Joseph gave them wagons as Pharaoh had instructed, and he also gave them provisions for their journey. 22He gave new garments to each of them, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silverb and five sets of clothes. 23And he sent to his father the following: ten donkeys loaded with the best of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provisions for his father's journey. 24Then Joseph sent his brothers on their way, and as they were leaving, he said to them, "Do not quarrel on the way!"
