NETBible

But bring your youngest brother back to me so I will know 1  that you are honest men and not spies. 2  Then I will give your brother back to you and you may move about freely in the land.’” 3 

NET Notes

tn After the imperative, the cohortative with prefixed vav indicates purpose/result.

tn Heb “that you are not spies, that you are honest men.”

sn Joseph’s brothers soften the news considerably, making it sound like Simeon was a guest of Joseph (Leave one of your brothers with me) instead of being bound in prison. They do not mention the threat of death and do not at this time speak of the money in the one sack.
