Act II Scene 9
Harmonious Chorale Ghana - Joseph And His Brethren An Oratorio By George Frideric Handel.
Performed By The Harmonious Chorale-Ghana and Conducted By James Varrick Armaah - 2nd July, 2017

The famine in Israel was intense. Jacob looked at his sons who were sitting around looking at each other - it was time to seek help and look for food elsewhere. Everyone knew Egypt had provisions, so Jacob sent all his sons except Benjamin to purchase grain in the foreign country. (Spiritual application: Unknown to Jacob and his sons, God's plans were perfectly working out!) On their arrival at Egypt the brothers came face to face with a powerful Egyptian Lord, a man who had only to answer to Pharaoh – they instantly bowed at his feet. The Egyptian was their long-lost brother. Joseph recognized them - but they were completely oblivious to his identity as he cleverly spoke to them through an interpreter. With a wise plan in mind, Joseph accused them of being spies! As they were arrested the brothers pleaded their innocence and stated that they were honest men - Joseph questioned them about life at home. They spoke of their younger brother Benjamin and a brother who was no longer alive. To test their honesty, Joseph freed all his
brothers except Simeon - who would be held ransom until they returned from Canaan with Benjamin to prove their words were true. (Spiritual application: Joseph controlled his emotion and displayed great dignity with no thought of revenge- an example
to us all).
