SEV Biblia, Chapter 41:40
Tú serás sobre mi casa, y por tu dicho se gobernará todo mi pueblo; solamente en el trono seré yo mayor que tú.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 41:40
Verse 40. According unto thy word shall all my people be ruled] Literally, At thy mouth shall all my people kiss. In the eastern countries it is customary to kiss any thing that comes from a superior, and this is done by way of testifying respect and submission. In this sense the words in the text are to be understood: All the people shall pay the profoundest respect and obedience to all thy orders and commands. Only in the throne will I be greater than thou.] This, in one word, is a perfect description of a prime minister. Thou shalt have the sole management, under me, of all state affairs.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 33-45 - Joseph gave good advice to Pharaoh. Fair warning should always be followed by good counsel. God has in his word told us of a day of tria before us, when we shall need all the grace we can have. Now therefore, provide accordingly. Pharaoh gave Joseph an honourabl testimony. He is a man in whom the spirit of God is; and such men ough to be valued. Pharaoh puts upon Joseph marks of honour. He gave his such a name as spoke the value he had for him, Zaphnath-paaneah, " revealer of secrets." This preferment of Joseph encourages all to trus in God. Some translate Joseph's new name, "the saviour of the world. The brightest glories, even of the upper world, are put upon Christ the highest trust lodged in his hand, and all power given him, both in heaven and earth.
