Genesis 43:12

43:12 Take double the money with you; you must take back the money that was returned in the mouths of your sacks – perhaps it was an oversight.

Genesis 43:15

43:15 So the men took these gifts, and they took double the money with them, along with Benjamin. Then they hurried down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.

Genesis 41:32

41:32 The dream was repeated to Pharaoh because the matter has been decreed by God, and God will make it happen soon.


tn Heb “in your hand.”

tn Heb “take back in your hand.” The imperfect verbal form probably has an injunctive or obligatory force here, since Jacob is instructing his sons.

tn Heb “they arose and went down to Egypt.” The first verb has an adverbial function and emphasizes that they departed right away.

tn Heb “and concerning the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh two times.” The Niphal infinitive here is the object of the preposition; it is followed by the subjective genitive “of the dream.”

tn Heb “established.”

tn The clause combines a participle and an infinitive construct: God “is hurrying…to do it,” meaning he is going to do it soon.
