Génesis 41:33

33 Por tanto, provéase ahora el Faraón de un varón prudente y sabio, y póngalo sobre la tierra de Egipto

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 aquella abundancia no se echará de ver a causa del hambre siguiente, la cual será gravísima

32 Y el suceder el sueño al Faraón dos veces, significa que la cosa es firme de parte de Dios, y que Dios se apresura a hacerla

33 Por tanto, provéase ahora el Faraón de un varón prudente y sabio, y póngalo sobre la tierra de Egipto

34 Haga esto el Faraón, y ponga gobernadores sobre la provincia, y quinte la tierra de Egipto en los siete años de la abundancia

35 y junten toda la provisión de estos buenos años que vienen, y junten el trigo bajo la mano del Faraón para mantenimiento de las ciudades; y guárdenlo
