Genesis 41:24 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 41:24

And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears
(See Gill on Genesis 41:7); and I told [this] unto the magicians;
just in the same manner as he had to Joseph: but [there was] none that could declare [it] unto me;
the meaning of it; what all this should signify or portend.
