26 And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence.
26 they loaded their grain on their donkeys and left.
26 Then they loaded their donkeys with their grain and departed.
26 They loaded their food supplies on their donkeys and set off.
26 So they loaded their donkeys with the grain and departed from there.
26 So the brothers loaded their donkeys with the grain and headed for home.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Genesis 42:26
Commentary on Genesis 42:25-28
(Read Genesis 42:25-28)
The brethren came for corn, and corn they had: not only so, but every man had his money given back. Thus Christ, like Joseph, gives out supplies without money and without price. The poorest are invited to buy. But guilty consciences are apt to take good providences in a bad sense; to put wrong meanings even upon things that make for them.
