Jacob sent his sons to Egypt to buy grain. Joseph recognized his brothers and tested them to see if they were changed before he revealed who he was. The brothers bowed before Joseph just as he dreamed they would, and he forgave them, realizing that God had sent him to Egypt to save his family from the famine.
