Genesis 45:2
"And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And he wept aloud,....; Or "gave forth his voice in weeping" (r); as he wept he cried aloud; for having put such a violent restraint on himself, as the flood

of tears was the greater, so his voice was the stronger and louder for it: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard; the Egyptians, that were in the room or rooms adjoining to that where Joseph was, heard his cry, and perhaps a great deal of what was said; which they soon reported to others, and it quickly reached Pharaoh's court, which might not be at any great distance. (r) "et dedit vocem suam in fletu", Montanus; so Junius & Tremellius, Piscator, Schmidt.
