Génesis 41:33 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 41:33

Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise,
&c.] Of good judgment and conduct, of abilities equal to the execution of a scheme hereafter proposed: it can scarcely be thought consistent with the great modesty of Joseph that he meant himself, or that indeed, he ventured to give any advice at all, until it was first asked of him by the king; who being so well satisfied with the interpretation of his dreams, thought him a proper person to consult with what to be done in this case; who, as a true father of his country, as every king should be, was concerned for the good of it, and to provide against the worst for them: and set him over the land of Egypt;
not to be governor of it in general, but with a particular respect to the present case, to take care of provision for it.

Génesis 41:33 In-Context

31 Y no se conocer谩 la abundancia en la tierra a causa del hambre que vendr谩, que ser谩 muy severa.
32 Y en cuanto a la repetici贸n del sue帽o a Fara贸n dos veces, quiere decir que el asunto est谩 determinado por Dios, y Dios lo har谩 pronto.
33 Ahora pues, busque Fara贸n un hombre prudente y sabio, y p贸ngalo sobre la tierra de Egipto.
34 Haga esto Fara贸n: nombre intendentes sobre el pa铆s y exija un quinto de la producci贸n de la tierra de Egipto en los siete a帽os de abundancia.
35 Y que ellos recojan todos los v铆veres de esos buenos a帽os que vienen, y almacenen en las ciudades el grano para alimento bajo la autoridad de Fara贸n, y que lo protejan.
