After Joseph and his brothers were reunited, Joseph presents only five of his brothers to Pharaoh. >Genesis 47:1-2 > >New International Version (NIV) > >47:1: Joseph went and told Pharaoh, “My father and brothers, with their flocks and herds and everything they own, have come from the land of Canaan and are now in Goshen.” > >2: He chose five of his brothers and presented them before Pharaoh. Why only five? Why not all?
