and,served portions from, his/its=faces/face to,them
As a person of high position and status, Joseph probably had his servants serve the food rather doing it himself. Decide whether you want to make that information explicit in your translation or include it in a footnote. Alternate translation: “Then Joseph served his brothers food from his table,”
וַתֵּ֜רֶב מַשְׂאַ֧ת בִּנְיָמִ֛ן & חָמֵ֣שׁ יָד֑וֹת
and,much portion Binyāmīn's & five hands
Alternate translation: “but the amount of food that was served to Benjamin was five times more”
מִמַּשְׂאֹ֥ת כֻּלָּ֖ם
than,portion any,theirs
Alternate translation: “than the amount of food that was served to any of the rest of them.”
וַיִּשְׁתּ֥וּ וַֽיִּשְׁכְּר֖וּ עִמּֽוֹ
and,drank and,became_drunk with=him/it
The Hebrew verb for became drunk is the same word that is used in Gen 9:21 to describe Noah when he had drunk so much wine that he had fallen asleep. Here, it probably means that they had drunk enough wine that they were feeling happy and sociable. Alternate translation: “Then they ate food, drank wine and feasted with him.” or “Then they feasted and drank wine freely with him until they were very merry.”
43:34 The brothers were confronted with generous and gracious dealings from God through Joseph, who tested their tolerance by reenacting the favoritism toward Rachel’s son that had galvanized their earlier hostility.
