82. Sacks, of Two Kinds

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Genesis 42:25
Listen from:
Genesis 42:25. Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man’s money into his sack.
The sacks (keleihem) which were filled with corn, and the sack (sak) which had the money put into it, are supposed to have been of two different kinds. The latter is thought to have been a bag for holding the provender for the journey; while the former (more properly rendered vessels than sacks) were larger, and were filled with the grain that they were carrying to Canaan.
