Quiz on Sleep and dreams
Joseph becomes Zapthnat Paneah
Why the brothers don’t recognize him.
Why Joseph’s
brothers don’t recognize him according to…
Rashi (Shlomo Yitzhaki, France, 10th century):
For you see that when Joseph left them, he had not been “sealed in old
age” [he had not finished growing and come to his adult face], but now he had
been “sealed in old age.”
Rashbam (Shmuel Ben Meir, France, 11th century, Rashi’s
Grandson):
For not only did he come to them now “Sealed in old age” but when they
saw him, he was ruling in power, and had all the royal garments upon him, and
they did not recognize his voice (others translate his “accent”).
Chizkuni, (France, 13th century)
והם לא הכירוהו, “but they did not recognize him;” one
reason was that he had grown a beard that he did not have when he was sold.
Secondly, his name had been changed. Thirdly, he now spoke Egyptian and he used
an interpreter, making believe that he did not understand Hebrew.
Nachmanides (Ramban, Moshe Ben
Nachman, Spain, 13th century):
He placed his headdress low on his forehead and over part of his face,
and concealed his appearance in other
ways, as we see the wife of King Yereboam
doing in 1st Kings. Also they did
not recognize him because it did not occur to them that a slave sold to the
Ishmaelites should be the ruler of a land.
Rabeynu Bachya (Spain, 14th century):
It is possible that Joseph did not change his features in order to
deceive his brothers but merely spoke to them in a tone and language which made
it unlikely that they would ever associate his person with being remotely
similar to their brother.
Midrash Tanchuma (midrashim first
collected in the 5thcentury):
He did things like just like a idol-worshiper, and in particular used his
goblet to consult it as if it possessed magic powers…. Joseph told them that
his goblet told him that two of their number had once destroyed an entire city
by the name of Shechem [a true but little known fact]. When they heard this
they were possessed with great fear, and told Joseph that they were actually
twelve brothers. Thereupon Joseph demanded to know the whereabouts of the other
two brothers. They told him that one of their number had disappeared and that
the youngest one was at home with his father…..
