Genesis 42:6

[Joseph came to Egypt at the age of 17. At the age of 30, he was promoted, and now, nine years later, his brothers come to buy grain from him—22 years after they sold him into slavery. Joseph's first dream is now coming true, see Gen. 37:5–8—almost. When they bowed down to him, he counted them; there were ten, not eleven. Where is the eleventh?]
Joseph was governor of the land, and he was the one who managed the sales to all the people in the land. Joseph's brothers [ten of them, see verse 3] came and bowed down before him with their faces to the ground.
