1 Mose 43:31

31 Und er wusch sein Angesicht und kam heraus und bezwang sich und sprach: Traget Speise auf!

5611. 'If I do not bring him to you and set him before you' means the complete restoration of it to the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'bringing him and setting him before him' as completely restoring; and from the representation of 'Israel', to whom Benjamin would be restored, as the Church, dealt with in 3305, 4286, 5595.
