Joseph probably brought his father and brothers with him from Goshen (46:31) to Pharaoh’s palace. It is not clear whether or not they were in the room yet when Joseph spoke to Pharaoh about them (47:1). Alternate translation: “Then he took five of his brothers to Pharaoh and presented them to him.” or “Joseph had brought five of his brothers with him from Goshen, so he brought them before Pharaoh and presented them to him.”
