But Joseph spoke kindly (Genesis 50)

“Joseph threw himself on his father, and wept over him and kissed him.”

Joseph did. His brothers felt too much shame and guilt (and fear of what Joseph do to them now that their father was gone) to express much emotion.

But Joseph spoke kindly to them, and assured them of his love. God is out to bless his people. Ironically, God used Joseph – the one they had wronged – to communicate that message.
