Genesi 41:55 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 41:55

And when all the land of Egypt was famished
Their old stock and store eaten up, and the inhabitants ready to starve with hunger: the people cried to Pharaoh for bread;
as their common father, and knowing that he had stores of provision laid up in all cities against this time: and Pharaoh said to the Egyptians, go unto Joseph;
whom he had appointed over this business of providing and laying up corn against this time, and of distributing it: what he saith to you, do;
give the price for the corn he fixes or requires; for this was the principal thing they had to do with him, to get corn for their money.

Genesi 41:55 In-Context

53 Poi, finiti i sette anni dell’abbondanza che fu nel paese di Egitto;
54 cominciarono a venire i sette anni della fame, siccome Giuseppe avea detto; e vi fu fame per tutti i paesi; ma per tutto Egitto vi era del pane.
55 Alla fine tutto il paese di Egitto fu anch’esso affamato, e il popolo gridò a Faraone per del pane. E Faraone disse a tutti gli Egizj: Andate a Giuseppe, e fate ciò ch’egli vi dirà.
56 Ed essendo la fame per tutto il paese, Giuseppe aperse tutti i granai, e ne vendè agli Egizj. E la fame si aggravò nel paese di Egitto.
57 Da ogni paese eziandio si veniva in Egitto a Giuseppe, per comperar del grano; perciocchè la fame si era aggravata per tutta la terra.
