Genesis 43 · Grade 2

A Feast with Joseph

Name Date

Read the Story

The family's food ran out again. Jacob told them to go back to Egypt and buy more food. But they had to bring Benjamin. Judah promised to keep him safe. Jacob prayed and let Benjamin go.

In Egypt, Joseph saw Benjamin, his little brother. Joseph's heart was full of love. He went into another room and cried. Then he washed his face and came back.

Joseph had a big feast for his brothers. He gave Benjamin five times as much food as the others! The brothers ate and enjoyed themselves. They still did not know the ruler was Joseph.

Memory Verse

May God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may release to you your other brother and Benjamin. If I am bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.”

Genesis 43:14 (WEB)
