Genesis 42:
Jacob asked his 10 sons to go down to Egypt to buy food. He kept the youngest Benjamin with him because he was afraid that something might happened to him. Joseph at this time was already in charge of the the selling of the food. His brothers went to him and bowed to him. He recognized thim but they didn't recognize Joseph. When Joseph was reminded with his dreams he accused them as spies, and ordered them to prove their innocence by taking the youngest son to him. when he learned that Reuben missed him, he wept but turned back and spoke harshly to them. He threw Simon in Jail and had the others take food back and bring Benjamin. He also put back the money they used to buy food. When the brothers found out, they were scared. They went to their father and told him everything. Jacob was really angry and sad because he didn't want Benjamin to leave him. He was afraid something might happened on the way that he might never see Benjamin anymore. Reuben offered his two sons saying that if Benjamin dies, Jacob could take the lives of his two son.
Mark 13:
Jesus was leaving the temple, and his disciples came and pointed out all the great buildings to him. He then started predicting that no one of these stones will be lifted up. Some disciples asked him secrety that when would things happened. Jesus told them to be careful with the false prophet and the false-christs. There would be betrayals among families. flee when persecution comes. Everything would change, but God would not change. Whoever stand firm to the end would be saved. the Christ will come like the master of the house, but the servents don't know when he will come back so they should be always on duty to prepare for the regturn of the master.
