Genesis
Chapter 45
1
Joseph could stand it no longer. There were many people in the room, and he said to his attendants, “Out, all of you!” So he was alone with his brothers when he told them who he was.
2
Then he broke down and wept. He wept so loudly the Egyptians could hear him, and word of it quickly carried to Pharaoh’s palace.
3
“I am Joseph!” he said to his brothers. “Is my father still alive?” But his brothers were speechless! They were stunned to realize that Joseph was standing there in front of them.
4
“Please, come closer,” he said to them. So they came closer. And he said again, “I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into slavery in Egypt.
5
But don’t be upset, and don’t be angry with yourselves for selling me to this place. It was God who sent me here ahead of you to preserve your lives.
6
This famine that has ravaged the land for two years will last five more years, and there will be neither plowing nor harvesting.
7
God has sent me ahead of you to keep you and your families alive and to preserve many survivors.
8
So it was God who sent me here, not you! And he is the one who made me an adviser to Pharaoh—the manager of his entire palace and the governor of all Egypt.

Genesis 45:1-8
In reality Joseph Brothers were doing the work of God, through his captivity Joseph saved the nation of Israel because it was a great drought whole area and through this because of what God did through Joseph to save alot of lives; God used his brothers to put Josue into captivity brothers but God's will that he may save the people through the hard times that came up on them: because the drought came all through that area and through Joseph God saved the people.
