Context

42:8 Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him.

Genesis 37:33

Context

37:33 He recognized it and exclaimed, “It is my son’s tunic! A wild animal has eaten him! 1  Joseph has surely been torn to pieces!”

1 sn A wild animal has eaten him. Jacob draws this conclusion on his own without his sons actually having to lie with their words (see v. 20). Dipping the tunic in the goat’s blood was the only deception needed.
