genesis 45:14 Then he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck and wept; and Benjamin wept on his neck.

< Genesis 45:13
Genesis 45:15 >

      14, 15. And he fell upon . . . Benjamin's neck--The sudden transition from a condemned criminal to a fondled brother, might have occasioned fainting or even death, had not his tumultuous feelings been relieved by a torrent of tears. But Joseph's attentions were not confined to Benjamin. He affectionately embraced every one of his brothers in succession; and by those actions, his forgiveness was demonstrated more fully than it could be by words.
