Commentary on Genesis 45:19

Theological / Devotional

Take you wagons. Since the Hyksos had introduced the first horses and the first chariots into Egypt, neither of which had previously been known in the Nile valley, light two-wheeled vehicles were in use by the Egyptians, especially in warfare, but also for transportation outside of Egypt. In Egypt itself all transportation of people and goods was carried on by boats on the Nile, and carriages were of little use.
