Commentaire de citation sur La Genèse 41:16

וַיַּ֨עַן יוֹסֵ֧ף אֶת־פַּרְעֹ֛ה לֵאמֹ֖ר בִּלְעָדָ֑י אֱלֹהִ֕ים יַעֲנֶ֖ה אֶת־שְׁל֥וֹם פַּרְעֹֽה׃

Joseph répondit à Pharaon en disant: "Ce n’est pas moi, c’est Dieu, qui saura tranquilliser Pharaon."

Tze'enah Ure'enah

Joseph responded. “God will see to Pharaoh’s welfare” [41:16]. The Holy One will tell you what the dream means. Bahya writes. Pharaoh and his whole nation thought that the whole world was guided by the seven planets in heaven. The Holy One had no power in the world, heaven forbid. When Pharaoh saw seven ears, Pharaoh thought that the number seven alludes to the seven planets that will cause hunger and satiety. Therefore, Joseph first said, the Holy One will respond. That is to say, do not think that the planets and constellations do anything on the earth, but everything comes from the Holy One.19Bahya, Genesis, 41:16.
