Jacob told them to take the best fruit, double the money, and gifts to Joseph - praying God puts mercy in his heart to release Simeon and Benjamin...

Genesis 43:11 And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:

12 And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight:

13 Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the man:

14 And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin.

Genesis 43:15 And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.

16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring these men home, and slay, and make ready; for these men shall dine with me at noon.

33 And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another....32 because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.

34 ... And they drank, and were merry with him.

Many times in Joseph's presence the brothers bowed down to him - thus fulfilling several dreams Joseph had, and the hate it aroused in his brothers believing this would never happen.

Hate to the point they were going to murder him.

Once again, Joseph sent them on their way with food and all their money, but this time deceptively, put his silver cup in Benjamin's sack:

Genesis 44:1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth.

2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest...
