Genesis 44:3 — Meaning and Application

And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks {with} food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth. {the steward...: Heb. him that was over his house}

And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.

As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.

{And} when they were gone out of the city, {and} not {yet} far off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up, follow after the men; and when thou dost overtake them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye rewarded evil for good?

{Is} not this {it} in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing. {divineth: or, maketh trial?}
