Genesis 43:33

They sat before him, the firstborn [first] according to their birthright, and the youngest according to their age. [Joseph had seated them so that they were all in order of age.] The men [the 11 brothers] looked at each other in amazement. [They wondered how Joseph could know their ages. The probability of randomly choosing this order is extremely small, about one in 40 million.]
