Context — Joseph Reveals His Identity
2But he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh’s household soon heard of it.
3Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?” But they were unable to answer him, because they were terrified in his presence.
4Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come near me.” And they did so. “I am Joseph, your brother,” he said, “the one you sold into Egypt!
5And now, do not be distressed or angry with yourselves that you sold me into this place, because it was to save lives that God sent me before you. 6For the famine has covered the land these two years, and there will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.Cross References

Genesis 45:4 Summary
In Genesis 45:4, Joseph reveals his true identity to his brothers, who had sold him into slavery many years earlier. Despite the pain and hurt they had caused him, Joseph invites them to come near and begins the process of healing and reconciliation. This shows us that forgiveness and reconciliation are possible, even in the face of great hurt and betrayal, as encouraged in Matthew 6:14-15. Just as Joseph trusted in God's plan and sovereignty, we can also trust that God is working all things together for our good, as stated in Romans 8:28.

How did Joseph's brothers respond to his revelation in Genesis 45:4?

Joseph's example teaches us that forgiveness and reconciliation are possible, even in the face of great hurt and betrayal, as seen in his ability to forgive his brothers and invite them to come near, and as encouraged in Matthew 6:14-15 and Luke 6:27-28.
How does Genesis 45:4 relate to the larger story of Joseph and his brothers?

Gill's Exposition on Genesis 45:4
And Joseph said unto his brethren, come near to me, I pray you,.... Very probably Joseph sat in a chair of state while they were under examination, and through reverence of him they kept at a proper
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Genesis 45:4
And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Genesis 45:4
Come near to me; be not afraid of me, but come nearer to me with cheerfulness and confidence, that you may be assured that I am he, and that we may more freely and privately discourse together, so as none others may hear. It is probable that Joseph sat in state, and that they hitherto kept a due distance from him. Sold into Egypt, i.e. sold unto them that brought me into Egypt, and sold me there: see 39:1. So they sold him into Egypt occasionally and eventually.
Trapp's Commentary on Genesis 45:4
Genesis 45:4 And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I [am] Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.Ver. 4. I am Joseph your brother.] Therefore you are to expect no hard sentence from a brother’ s mouth. Christ "is not ashamed," nor will be at the last day, "to call us brethren," He that was willingly judged for me, said that good woman, will surely give no hard sentence against me. We may say boldly to him, as Ruth did to Boaz, "Spread thy skirt over me, for thou art a near kinsman" Pattern of Piety.
Ellicott's Commentary on Genesis 45:4
(4) I am Joseph your brother.—There is much force in the assurance that he was still their brother. For they stood speechless in terrified surprise at finding that the hated dreamer, upon the anguish of whose soul they had looked unmoved, was now the ruler of a mighty empire. But with magnanimous gentleness he bids them neither to grieve nor be angry with themselves; for behind their acts there had been a watchful Providence guiding all things for good.
Cambridge Bible on Genesis 45:4
4. whom ye sold] The narrative of J is here, as in Genesis 45:5, followed, according to which Joseph was sold by his brethren.
Whedon's Commentary on Genesis 45:4
4. Come near — He notices their confusion and alarm, and their shrinking from his presence, and now kindly seeks to allay their fears and strengthen their hearts.
