Génesis 45:12 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 45:12

And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother
Benjamin
They were eyewitnesses of his being alive, having themselves seen him, and even Benjamin, who could not be suspected by his father of a fraud in imposing on him; and some of them could doubtless remember his features, and had an ocular proof of his being the very person, which they could with great evidence relate unto Jacob; as also his voice in speaking:

that [it is] my mouth that speaketh unto you;
without an interpreter, as Aben Ezra, and in the Hebrew language, as the Targum and Jarchi; which might confirm them, and likewise their father upon their report, that the governor was not an Egyptian, but an Hebrew; and by that and other concurrent testimonies that he must be Joseph.

Génesis 45:12 In-Context

10 Y habitarás en la tierra de Gosén, y estarás cerca de mí, tú y tus hijos, y los hijos de tus hijos, tus ganados y tus vacas, y todo lo que tienes.

11 Y allí te alimentaré, pues aun quedan cinco años de hambre, porque no perezcas de pobreza tú y tu casa, y todo lo que tienes:

12 Y he aquí, vuestros ojos ven, y los ojos de mi hermano Benjamín, que mi boca os habla.

13 Haréis pues saber á mi padre toda mi gloria en Egipto, y todo lo que habéis visto: y daos priesa, y traed á mi padre acá.

14 Y echóse sobre el cuello de Benjamín su hermano, y lloró; y también Benjamín lloró sobre su cuello.
