Génesis 40:21 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 40:21

And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again,
&c.] Put him into the same office he was in before: and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand;
ministered to him in his office the same day, according to his dream and the interpretation of it: the Targum of Jonathan adds this as a reason of his being restored,

``because he found that he was not in that counsel,''
in which it was consulted to poison Pharaoh, (See Gill on Genesis 40:1).

19 Al cabo de tres d铆as quitar谩 Fara贸n tu cabeza de sobre ti, y te har谩 colgar en la horca, y las aves comer谩n tu carne de sobre ti.
20 Y fu茅 el tercero d铆a el d铆a del nacimiento de Fara贸n, 茅 hizo banquete 谩 todos sus sirvientes: y alz贸 la cabeza del principal de los coperos, y la cabeza del principal de los panaderos, entre sus servidores.
21 E hizo volver 谩 su oficio al principal de los coperos; y di贸 茅l la copa en mano de Fara贸n.
22 Mas hizo ahorcar al principal de los panaderos, como le hab铆a declarado Jos茅.
23 Y el principal de los coperos no se acord贸 de Jos茅, sino que le olvid贸.
