Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Genesis 43:4
If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:
If thou wilt send our brother with us,…. Give orders for his going with us, and put him under our care:
we will go down and buy thee food; signifying, on the above condition, that they were ready and willing to take a journey into Egypt, and buy provisions for him and his family, otherwise not.

I detain the Reader to remark the character here assumed by Judah as a surety, in which he was an eminent type of JESUS. It was JESUS, who from everlasting undertook to answer for his people. And in this great office he hath fulfilled all righteousness, and expired all offences and is new pledged, (as Judah said here), to bring all his people and set them before his father. Sweetly is it said of him that he restored that which he took not away. Psa 69:4 .
