Genesis 41:11 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 41:11

And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he
In one and the same night: we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream;
they both dreamed exactly what should befall them, as it was interpreted to them; the dreams, the interpretation of them, and the events, answered to each other.

Genesis 41:11 In-Context

9 Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, "Today reminds me of something wherein I am at fault:

10 Pharaoh was angry with his officials and put me in the prison of the house of the captain of the guard, me and the chief baker.

11 One night both I and he had dreams, and each man's dream had its own meaning.

12 There was with us a young man, a Hebrew, a servant of the captain of the guard; and we told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us -he interpreted each man's dream individually.

13 And it came about as he interpreted to us-I was restored to my office, and he was hanged."
