Genesis 45:21 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 45:21

And the children of Israel did so
As Pharaoh commanded, and Joseph from him directed them to do: and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh:
and beasts, either horses or oxen to draw them, and these not empty, though the principal use of them was to fetch his father and his family, and their goods: and gave them provision for the way:
both going and returning, as much as would suffice for both.

Genesis 45:21 In-Context

19 Give them these instructions too: Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your children and wives, and pick up your father and come back.
20 Don't worry about your possessions because you will have good things from the entire land of Egypt."
21 So Israel's sons did that. Joseph gave them wagons as Pharaoh instructed, and he gave them provisions for the road.
22 To all of them he gave a change of clothing, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
23 To his father he sent ten male donkeys carrying goods from Egypt, ten female donkeys carrying grain and bread, and rations for his father for the road.
