The Old Testament Verses from 1-10 are talking about 1) the famine was sore in the land, 2) Jacob commanded his sons to go to Egypt to buy corn and 3) Judah said: we have to take Benjamin with us, otherwise we will never be able to get corn from Egypt!

The New Testament Verses from 1-10 are talking about the chief Jewish priests had delivered Jesus (for envy) to be crucified (See: B: The second part).

The Noble Quran Verses from 1-10 are talking about 1) the revelation of the Quran, 2) how many were the prophets were sent to the people? , 3) no prophet came to people except that they mocked him, etc; (see: C: The third part – I and II).

=========

Old Testament:

Chapter 43 in the Old Testament is Genesis 43; it is composed of 36 verses.

Verses from 1-10 are talking about 1) the famine was sore in the land, 2) Jacob commanded his sons to go to Egypt to buy corn and 3) Judah said: we have to take Benjamin with us, otherwise we will never be able to get corn from Egypt!

This was the smart plan of Joseph to have Benjamin with him!

Genesis 43 (King James Version)

1] And the famine was sore in the land.

2] And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.

3] And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.

4] If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:

5] But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down: for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.

6] And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye so ill with me, as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?

7] And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state, and of our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?

8] And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, and also our little ones.

9] I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:

10] For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time.

Jewish Study Bible $32.99 oxford University Press breaks exciting new ground in the field of study Bibles with The Jewish Study Bible. This innovative volume will, for the first time, offer readers of the Hebrew Bible a resource that is specifically tailored to meet their needs. The JSB presents the center of gravity of the Scriptures where Jews experience it–in Torah. It offers readers the fruits of various schools of Jewish traditions of biblical exegesis (rabbinic, medieval, mystical, etc.) and provides them with a wealth of ancillary materials that aid in bringing the ancient text to life. The nearly forty contributors to the work represent the cream of Jewish biblical scholarship from the world over. The JSB uses The Jewish Publication Society TANAKH Translation, whose name is an acronym formed from the Hebrew initials of the three sections into which the Hebrew Bible is traditionally divided (Torah, Instruction; Nevi’im, prophets; and Kethubim, Writings). A committee of esteemed biblical scholars and rabbis from the Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform Judaism movements produced this modern translation, which dates from 1985. Unlike other English translations based upon such ancient versions as the Septuagint and Vulgate, which emend the Hebrew text, TANAKH is faithful to the original text. Conservative, Reform and Reconstructionist Jews, professors, students, rabbis: indeed, anyone interested in acquiring a fuller understanding of the riches of the Hebrew Bible will profit from reading The Jewish Study Bible.

Studies in the Bible and Jewish Thought $65 With this selection of his essays and studies, Moshe Greenberg joins JPS’s Scholars of Distinction. One of the world’s foremost Bible experts, Dr. Greenberg’s viewpoint has been shaped by the study of the ancient Near Eastern context of biblical Israel and the history of the interpretation of the Bible from its earliest translations until today. He regards the text with admiration for its enduring power, for the features that set it apart from the literatures of surrounding cultures, and for the riches discovered in it through the ages by faith-full interpreters. For Dr. Greenberg, the Jewish Bible scholar is, ultimately, charged with the task of identifying and explaining the impact that Hebrew scriptures have had on humanity in general and on Judaism in particular. These essays, composed during a period of some forty-five years, are presented essentially in their original form, many with newly added notes by the author; some of the essays have never before been published.
