Your masters cup?We havent stolen your masters cup! You can search every sack and see for yourself! Do you remember what Josephs steward found when he searched those sacks?Yes, thats right, the silver cup was found in Benjamins sack! With great anguish and fear all the brothers got on their donkeys and turned back toward Egypt. Bowing down before the accusing eyes of this harsh Egyptian ruler, they feared for their very lives. But you and I know this Egyptian ruler was Joseph, and he is putting his brothers through one last test. Had their hearts changed since the time they had treated Joseph with such cruelty? 你主人的杯子?我们可没有偷你主人的杯子!你可以搜我们的口袋，自己看! 你还记得约瑟的管家搜查出什么了吗?对了，那杯子竟然在便雅悯的口袋里被搜出来。约瑟的弟兄们又气又怕，骑上他们的驴，回到埃及。他们在这个严厉的埃及长官面前俯伏于地，为他们的命运担忧。但是我们知道这个埃及长官就是约瑟，他正在最后一次考验他的哥哥们。自从他们上一次无情地对待约瑟，他们的心有没有改变呢? Joseph did not wonder for long. As he saw his brothers pleading with tears for their brother Benjamin, he realized they were different. In Genesis 45：l we read：Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren. Joseph said, I am Joseph! Is my father really still alive? But the brothers could not answer him, because they were so shocked with surprise and fear. Joseph called to them, Come near to me, please. I am really Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt. But do not be grieved or angry with yourselves that you sold me as a slave. God sent me before you to save your life. |
