Genesis 45:25 In-Context

23 He sent his father ten donkeys loaded with the best Egyptian goods and ten donkeys loaded with grain, bread, and other food for the trip.
24 He sent his brothers off and as they left, he said to them, "Don't quarrel on the way."
25 They left Egypt and went back home to their father Jacob in Canaan.
26 "Joseph is still alive!" they told him. "He is the ruler of all Egypt!" Jacob was stunned and could not believe them.
27 But when they told him all that Joseph had said to them, and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to take him to Egypt, he recovered from the shock.
