What does Genesis 45:21 mean?

When Joseph finally revealed himself to his estranged brothers, the secret was also uncovered to Pharaoh, the ruler of Egypt (Genesis 45:1–2). The king reacted with joy (Genesis 45:16). He instructed Joseph to not only bring the entire family to live in Egypt (Genesis 45:10–11), but to send transports (Genesis 45:19) and plan to receive the best Egypt had to offer (Genesis 45:20).

Pharaoh's command is carried out. Joseph outfits his brothers with wagons and abundant provisions for their journey to and from Canaan.
