    Brief Summary: Rashi supplements Judahs statement YOU ASKED ABOUT OUR RELATIVES (Gn44-18c) by citing Gn42-07 IT WASN'T JUST ASKING BUT A HARASSING INTERROGATION

Verse Gn44-19a discussing Judah's account of Joseph's interrogation states My lord asked his servants, saying: Have ye a father, or a brother? Rashi notes The underlined words, My lord asked his servants references verse Gn42-07 which explicitly states that Joseph's interrogation was not routine, but intended to harass.

Text of Target Verse Gn44-19a Text of Reference Verse Gn42-07
My lord asked his servants, saying: Have ye a father, or a brother? And Joseph saw his brothers, and he knew them, but spoke estrangedly and roughly to them; and he said to them, From where do you come? They said, From the land of Canaan to buy food.
Rashi comments: As shown by the underlined words asked, estranged, harshly Joseph's interrogation was not routine but intended to harass.
