The Torah Portion In A Nutshell
Parsha Vayigash begins where Miketz left off, with Judah approaching Joseph to plead on behalf of Benjamin, offering himself instead. This show of brotherly love provokes Joseph to reveal himself to them in a tearful reunion, asking them “is my father still alive?”
Joseph reassures the brothers, as they are racked with intense remorse for their actions towards him all those years ago, saying to them that it had not been they who had sent him to Egypt but God Himself, that life may be preserved during the famine, through God’s intervention by the hand of Joseph. Swiftly returning to Canaan, they bring the news of Joseph’s survival to Jacob, who promptly makes the journey to Egypt with his whole family, to be reunited with his son whom he had considered lost for many years.
Joseph gains the whole of Egypt for Pharaoh by buying the inhabitants' land and livestock for the food that he had commanded to be stored up in the years of plenty. After having presented his family to Pharaoh, Joseph is given the land of Goshen for his family to dwell in, being ideal for their livestock. Although they are technically in exile in Egypt at this point, they begin to flourish and prosper through the promise of God.
