This week’s Parashah covers Genesis 44:18 to 47:27. After 22 years of separation, Joseph and his brothers draw near to each other. After the brothers pass Joseph’s tricky tests of their moral character, he reveals himself to them as the brother they thought was dead. He forgives them, assuring them that everything that happened was the will of God. Joseph brings his family to Egypt to wait out the famine. What stands out most to me in the text is the specific selection of Goshen as the family homestead. Joseph, an expert strategist, had his reasons for pushing Goshen.
