Reunion in Egypt - Genesis Chapter 43 Poem

More about Reunion in Egypt - Genesis Chapter 43 Poem

The famine still plagued the land, so dire,
In Egypt, Joseph's brothers did inquire,
To buy food and grains for their clan,
They ventured with hope, though their past did ban.
For Joseph, the governor, they did not know,
His face concealed, his status kept low,
But Joseph, their long-lost sibling dear,
Saw them approach with mixed feelings severe.
He tested their hearts, their guilt to assess,
To see if they'd changed, their sorrows confess,
He accused them of spies, their words to probe,
To gauge their remorse, their souls to probe.
The brothers pleaded, they shared their plight,
Benjamin, their youngest, their father's light,
Joseph's heart softened, tears welled in his eyes,
As he saw his brother, to his surprise.
He revealed his identity at last,
Embracing his kin, their sins of the past,
Forgiveness and love, a reunion so sweet,
Their bond restored, their souls replete.
He sent them back with abundant grace,
To fetch their father to this new place,
A journey of joy, a tale of redemption,
A family healed from old contention.
In Egypt's land, a story so grand,
Of brothers reunited, by fate's command,
Forgiveness and mercy, a lesson to learn,
In Genesis 43, a tale to discern.
