It strikes me, this time through the Yosef story, that during the years of plenty he collected all the grain for safekeeping, and in the first couple years of the famine he rationed it (sounded like this was the plan), but then he started selling it. You'd expect outsiders to have to pay, but he was selling Egyptians their own grain, and the text doesn't address the change in policy. If this was Yosef's plan and not Paro's, it doesn't exactly seem consistent with Jewish values like fair business practices. Why was this ok? Are there commentaries on this, and do any of them criticize Yosef's grain policies? It doesn't sound like the farmers who grew the grain had the option to store their own for the future, but instead had to hand it over. What am I missing? #vayigash
