This brings up a few questions.
Why was Joseph not with his brothers?
Could it have been because of the tension?
Perhaps after the report Joseph gave about his brothers earlier they did not want him around.
Maybe Jacob/Israel was again favoring Joseph by letting him stay home while his brothers did the hard work of tending the flocks.
Whatever the reason, Joseph must travel and seek them out.
This escalated quickly!
Simeon and Levi had killed before to avenge their sister’s honor, but even so, this is quite a jump.
However, it does tell you how much favoritism and arrogance intensified the sibling rivalry into hatred, and how deep that hatred was.
Reuben does something good!
Reuben really wasn’t the ideal firstborn son, but he finally stands up for good by trying to protect Joseph.
I just have to point out that the brothers throw Joseph into a pit, with no food or water, and then sit down and eat.
Harbored sin leads to more sin and destruction.
