Midrash interpreted to mean that Jacob told his sons that they were all strong and brotherly; they were not to enter through one gate and all stand in the same place, so that they should not tempt the evil eye. Similarly, a Midrash taught that Jacob asked his sons not to go out with food in their hands, or with weapons, and not to show themselves to be well fed, lest neighbors come and wage war against Jacob. For the Midrash read the words "look one on another" in to allude to war, as in , "Come, let us look one another in the face."

And the Midrash taught that Simeon was repaid when in , Joseph took Simeon from among the brothers and had him bound before their eyes.
