Dear all, Peng An,
Very interesting speculations and discussions. Yeah, according to one study, Banjamin was ten years old when Jospheh was sold to Egypt. For those interested in the chronology of Jacob, please check the following url,

As for speculating the possible motivation or intention of Joseph in his intriguing design to trick his brothers, Joseph seemed very careful and manipulating to find out what he would like to know about his younger brother and old father's current situation.

As for the ethical concern against Joseph's plot, this might be other relavant field for us to meditate and discuss.

Was this just a story recorded in the Bible for us to enjoy? Was Joseph's behavior presented here as a descriptive historical account? Or a prescriptive model for us to emulate and follow? Or a prohibitive example to warn us against such or simular behavior?
