John Gill Commentary Genesis 43:17

"And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men to Joseph`s house." — Genesis 43:17 (ASV)

And the man did as Joseph bid: and the man brought the men
into Joseph's house .
Showed them the way to it, and introduced them into it, and led them into some apartment in it, and ordered every thing to be got ready for dinner as his master had bid him, being a diligent and faithful servant: at old Cair is shown to travellers ^F25 the house of Joseph in the tower, and a very surprising well, said to be made by him, and here, they say; the granaries were, in which the corn was laid up.
