Génesis 45:18 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 45:18

And take your father, and your households
Or families, for they were all married persons, and had children, and no doubt servants also: all were to be brought with them,

and come unto me;
into his kingdom, to his metropolis, and to his palace, and into his presence:

and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt;
the best things which it affords, and the best and most fruitful part of it, as he afterwards did, which was the land of Goshen:

and ye shall eat the fat of the land;
the choicest fruits of the earth, such as were produced in fields and gardens; meaning that they should have the finest of the wheat for themselves, and the fattest pastures for their flocks.

Génesis 45:18 In-Context

16 Cuando se oyó la noticia en la casa de Faraón, de que los hermanos de José habían venido, agradó a Faraón y a sus siervos.

17 Entonces Faraón dijo a José: Di a tus hermanos: "Haced esto: cargad vuestras bestias e id a la tierra de Canaán;

18 y tomad a vuestro padre y a vuestras familias y venid a mí y yo os daré lo mejor de la tierra de Egipto, y comeréis de la abundancia de la tierra."

19 Y a ti se te ordena decirles: "Haced esto: tomad carretas de la tierra de Egipto para vuestros pequeños y para vuestras mujeres, y traed a vuestro padre y venid.

20 "Y no os preocupéis por vuestras posesiones personales, pues lo mejor de toda la tierra de Egipto es vuestro."
