1) Ch. 44, v. 18: "Va'yigaSH eiloV YehudoH" And Yehudoh drew close to him Baal Haturim notes that the final letters of these three words form the word "ShoVoH," equal. Yehudoh advised Yoseif that he was his equal, also a king. If this is so, is the statement of Rashi that Yehudoh warned Yoseif that he was about to speak to him in a harsh manner agreed upon by the Baal Haturim? Since Yehudoh was of equal stature his words are not to be considered something that might incite another king.
2) Ch. 44, v. 20: "Va'yivo'seir" And he was left over Compare this with the synonymous word "v'hu l'vado NISHOR" (42:38).
3) Ch. 44, v. 32,34: "Ki av'd'cho orav es hanaar, Eich e'eleh el ovi v'hanaar einenu iti" Because your servant has is responsible for the youth, How will I be able to ascend to my father without the youth Why was it necessary for Yehudoh to add the second reason since the first in its own right is very compelling?
4) Ch. 46, v. 21: "Uvnei Vinyomin Bella voVecher" And the sons of Binyomin were Bella and Becher Rashi on 43:30 explains that Bella alludes to Yoseif's being swallowed into the society of the gentiles, while Becher alludes to his being the first-born to his mother Rochel. Since Yoseif was a first-born upon birth and only later was swallowed into the gentiles, why didn't Binyomin name his first son Becher and his second son Bella?
5) Ch. 47, v. 6: "B'meitav ho'oretz hosheiv es ovicho v'es achecho yeishvu b'eretz Goshen" In the prime of the land place your father and your brothers they shall reside in the land of Goshen Did Paroh offer that Yoseif's father and brothers reside in one land or in two?
