In a room, three tables were prepared
Joseph sat at the head table

The Hebrew brothers were seated
By order from the firstborn
To the youngest
At another.

The Egytian household servants
At the third table
As it was the custom
For Egyptians not to
Eat with Hebrews

The brothers sat astonished
As the food was brought forth
And
Benjamin's portion
Was five times as much
As all the other's!

You're very good at leaving us hanging.

That's in a good writer. The number 5 in biblical numerics means Grace.

Septsong, we see the gradual but sure unfolding of God's goodness- and of precious opportunity to do for those we love, as we have opportunity, as Joseph now does for his beloved younger Brother, Benjamin. Favoritism, no doubt--but long overdue, on his part. Keep it up, youre doing a fantastic job! David< !signature-->
