📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurs when Joseph's brothers are imprisoned in Egypt, not knowing that the Egyptian ruler questioning them is actually Joseph himself. Years earlier, Reuben had tried to save Joseph from his brothers' plot to kill him, suggesting they throw him in a pit instead, intending to rescue him later. Now, facing difficulties in Egypt, Reuben sees their current troubles as divine justice for their past treatment of Joseph.
