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 The head cupbearer then spoke up and said to Pharaoh, "I just now remembered something - I'm sorry, I should have told you this long ago.

10 Once when Pharaoh got angry with his servants, he locked me and the head baker in the house of the captain of the guard.

11 We both had dreams on the same night, each dream with its own meaning.

12 It so happened that there was a young Hebrew slave there with us; he belonged to the captain of the guard. We told him our dreams and he interpreted them for us, each dream separately.

13 Things turned out just as he interpreted. I was returned to my position and the head baker was impaled."
