This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Gen_43:18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph’s house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.

Ver. 18. And the men were afraid.] Where no fear was; but that an ill conscience haunted them, and so "the sound of a shaken leaf" {Lev_26:36} put them into a fright. As every body hath its shadow, so hath every sin its fear; and fear torment. {1Jn_4:18}
