Judah, realizing the terrible situation that was unfolding, started to plead with the Egyptian governor. He had made a pledge to Jacob offering himself as surety if he did not bring back Benjamin. He was now making good on that promise. He was keeping his word to his father. He approached the prime minister of the greatest nation on earth at that time without being asked to come near. This could have easily been a capital offense. One does not approach a sovereign without being recognized to do so. Judah recognized that this man’s power and authority was equal to that of Pharaoh. But the motivation to keep his word to his father and preserve his brother Benjamin far superseded his fear of the governor and his position. Judah told Joseph that he would become surety for Benjamin if it came to that and now he was prepared to do that. Joseph was seeing the outcome of his testing of the brothers. Judah was speaking for his brethren and trying to make good for their sin, which brought grief upon their father.
