Joseph reveals his true identity to his brothers in an emotional moment of reconciliation, demonstrating how God transformed their betrayal into salvation for their family during the devastating seven-year famine.
• Joseph weeps loudly before revealing himself to his shocked and terrified brothers
• He reframes their betrayal as part of God's providence: "It was not you who sent me here, but God"
• Joseph has become "father to Pharaoh" and ruler over Egypt at age 39
• He invites his entire family to relocate to Goshen where he can provide for them during the remaining five years of famine
• Pharaoh providentially supports the plan, offering wagons and the best land in Egypt
• Joseph gives his brothers provisions, clothing, and special gifts for Benjamin
• Jacob initially disbelieves the news but his spirit revives when seeing proof of Joseph's survival
