“And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.”
When Joseph came home, they presented to him the gifts they had brought into the house, and they bowed down before him to the ground. The second bowing of the brothers — adding to the bowing of Genesis 42:6 — is the continued fulfillment of the sheaves dream. The application: each encounter with Joseph produces the bowing that the dream announced. The covenant word keeps being fulfilled in each successive encounter.
