Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 22. - To all of them he gave each man changes of raiment; - literally, alterations of garments, i.e. changes or suits of dress (Judges 14:12, 13; 2 Kings 5:5); probably dress clothes for special occasions (Keil, Lange, Murphy); δισσὰς στολὰς (LXX.); binas stolas (Vulgate) - but (literally, and) to Benjamin he gave - not to make amends for having given him a fright (Lange), but as a special token of fraternal affection (Murphy) - three hundred pieces of silver,-literally, three hundred of silver (cf. Genesis 43:44) - and five changes of raiment - which renders it probable that the brothers only received two.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(22) Changes of raiment.--Gifts of clothing were marks of special favour in the East (Genesis 41:42). Joseph's brethren would thus show by their very apparel how honourable had been their treatment.
