Chuàngshìjì 40:12 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 40:12

And Joseph said unto him, this [is] the interpretation of it,
&c.] Of the dream: the three branches [are] three days;
signify three days, or, as Jarchi expresses it, are a sign of three days; which Joseph could know only by divine revelation; for there is no more likeness between branches and days, than between them and months or years, and bid as fair to signify one as the other, if the interpretation depended on similarity, or bare conjecture.
