Genesis 41:53

53 igitur transactis septem annis ubertatis qui fuerant in Aegypto

Genesis 41:53 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 41:53

And the seven years of plenteousness that was in the land of
Egypt were ended.
] Perhaps quickly after the birth of Ephraim, Joseph's second son; since the account follows upon that, and it is certain that he was born before the years of famine began, ( Genesis 41:50 ) ; some connect the words, "moreover when" the seven years of plenty were ended, then began, as follows, seven years of famine; these events were fulfilled just as Joseph had predicted.

Genesis 41:53 In-Context

51 vocavitque nomen primogeniti Manasse dicens oblivisci me fecit Deus omnium laborum meorum et domum patris mei
52 nomen quoque secundi appellavit Ephraim dicens crescere me fecit Deus in terra paupertatis meae
53 igitur transactis septem annis ubertatis qui fuerant in Aegypto
54 coeperunt venire septem anni inopiae quos praedixerat Ioseph et in universo orbe fames praevaluit in cuncta autem terra Aegypti erat panis
55 qua esuriente clamavit populus ad Pharaonem alimenta petens quibus ille respondit ite ad Ioseph et quicquid vobis dixerit facite
