TSNTyndale Study Notes:

44:1-34 The brothers appeared to have changed; they had shown remorse over what they had done to Joseph, and they showed integrity in returning the money and in bringing Benjamin. Given a chance to get rid of Rachel’s other son, Benjamin, would they do it?


UTNuW Translation Notes:

הֵ֣ן

if

Alternate translation: “After all,”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

כֶּ֗סֶף אֲשֶׁ֤ר מָצָ֨אנוּ֙ בְּ⁠פִ֣י אַמְתְּחֹתֵ֔י⁠נוּ הֱשִׁיבֹ֥נוּ אֵלֶ֖י⁠ךָ מֵ⁠אֶ֣רֶץ כְּנָ֑עַן

money which/who found in/on/at/with,mouths sacks,our brought_back to,you from,land Kenaan

Consider what is the best way in your language to order the clauses in this sentence. Alternate translation: “we returned to you the money that we found in our grain sacks last time. We brought it all the way from our home in the land of Canaan!” or “as soon as we came back here from the land of Canaan, we returned to you the money we had discovered inside our grain sacks”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

וְ⁠אֵ֗יךְ נִגְנֹב֙

and,why steal

The brothers use this rhetorical question to strongly emphasize that they would never steal from the servant’s master. Some languages must use a statement or exclamation here instead. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “So why would we ever take” or “So we would never take” or “So there is no reason that we would ever take”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

כֶּ֖סֶף א֥וֹ זָהָֽב

silver or gold

The brothers are emphasizing that they would never steal anything from Joseph, especially not valuable things made out of gold or silver.
