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 I remember my faults.

10 Pharaoh had been angry with his servants, and he put me and the chief baker in the custody of the captain of the guard.

11 He and I had dreams on the same night; each dream had its own meaning.

12 Now a young Hebrew, a slave of the captain of the guards, was with us there. We told him our dreams, he interpreted our dreams for us, and each had its own interpretation.

13 It turned out just the way he interpreted them to us: I was restored to my position, and the other man was hanged."
