Literatura del Segundo Templo sobre Génesis 45:16

וְהַקֹּ֣ל נִשְׁמַ֗ע בֵּ֤ית פַּרְעֹה֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר בָּ֖אוּ אֲחֵ֣י יוֹסֵ֑ף וַיִּיטַב֙ בְּעֵינֵ֣י פַרְעֹ֔ה וּבְעֵינֵ֖י עֲבָדָֽיו׃

Y oyóse la noticia en la casa de Faraón, diciendo:  Los hermanos de José han venido.  Y plugo en los ojos de Faraón y de sus siervos.

On the Change of Names

[171] And so when you hear that “Pharaoh rejoiced and his servants” (Gen. 45:16) at the coming of the brothers of Joseph, do not suppose that they were really pleased, except perhaps at one thought: they expected once more to lead away the mind to desert its foster-brethren the goods of the soul for the numberless lusts of the body, and to debase its old ancestral coinage, the coinage of virtue its birth-fellow.
