THE FOE UNDER THE GUISE OF FRIEND! Verses 11-14

      When their plot was finalized, the brethren proceeded to put it into execution. They therefore came to their father and said:ِ
      ``Dear Father! Why don't you trust us with Joseph while we are a well-wisher for him?''

      Jacob did not trust his beloved Joseph to go with them, but they resorted to brotherly affection, and said again:ِ

      ``Let him come with us to-morrow to enjoy himself and play, and we shall take good care of him.''

      Jacob found it not wise to put off the brethren, because if they were driven to open hostility, they could easily harm him in one way or another. He therefore gave reasons for his refusal that, Joseph was not of an age to play with them, and when they were attending to their affairs, a wolf could attack and devour the little boy.

      They rejected the father's idea, for being a strong band of young and well grown men. (BENJAMINE WAS TOO YOUNG TO GO WITH THEM):ِ

      ``How a wolf tears or even touches our brother while we are alive with him, inspite of being a strong band of well grown men!? If so it is better for us to be

lost.''
