📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Genesis, Jacob is an elderly patriarch dealing with a severe famine in the land of Canaan, which forces his family to seek food in Egypt. His sons have returned from Egypt with grain but are told they must bring their youngest brother Benjamin on their next trip, as the Egyptian governor (who is secretly Joseph, their long-lost brother) is testing their honesty. Jacob refuses to let Benjamin go, fearing he might lose him as he already believes he lost Joseph years earlier to a tragic fate.
