It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad is not with us, that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.
Cuando nuestro padre vea que el joven no está con nosotros, morirá de dolor. Nosotros, tus siervos, seremos responsables de llevar a nuestro anciano padre a la tumba con gran tristeza.
Los hermanos de José temían que la ausencia de Benjamín causara la muerte de su padre Jacob por el dolor.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Genesis, this verse occurs during a tense encounter where Judah, one of Jacob's sons, is pleading with Joseph (whom he doesn't recognize as his long-lost brother) to release their youngest brother Benjamin, who has been detained in Egypt. Judah explains that if Benjamin doesn't return, their father Jacob will die of sorrow, highlighting the deep emotional bonds and responsibilities within ancient family structures during the patriarchal era. This moment is part of the broader narrative of Joseph's rise to power in Egypt and his testing of his brothers' character, which ultimately leads to reconciliation and reveals God's providential hand in their lives.
