Have you ever felt betrayed, or found guilty of some wrong doing? Yet, you were really innocent. In Chp. 44 we read that Joseph was betrayed by his brothers. Now, to teach them a lesson he placed a silver cup in his youngest brother's sack. A sack that he had requested for the family. Benjamin had not been a part of the family secret. The Egyptians and Hebrews lived separately. If they had to gather for any reason the Egyptians would sit apart from the Hebrews.
Chp. 44
44:18 Notice Lord is not capitalized or upper cased. You will only find an upper case "L" when making reference to God (Allah, Yahweh, or Jesus).
Chp. 45
45:5 Do you suppose this is what Jesus says to faith believers?
45:21 Joseph is now the governor of Egypt and everything in it. He respects his boss, and his position. We must be like Joseph to understand our place or identity on the job. This will allow us to build trust/loyalty/respect. Sometimes we may start at the very bottom and it appears soo very dark. We may even feel lonely, or unappreciated. If we are willing to use our skills than we shall eventually achieve in financial stability. We will also be directed to like minded individuals at just the right time. Revenge is left up to God. Yet, God allows the entire lands to know about Joseph's blessing. A promise kept to Abraham (See Chapter 15:13-16 for further discussion).
Chp. 46
46:34 There were 300 people, and more from the house of Jacob. Do you believe Pharaoh will allow all of these people to enter his land?
