Pharaon surnomma Joseph Çâfenath Panéah et il lui donna pour femme Asenath, fille de Pôti Féra, prêtre d’On. Joseph fit une excursion dans le pays d’Égypte.
On the Change of Names
[89] Not so with the controller of bodily necessaries, Joseph. For he changes his name and receives the title of Psonthomphanech (Gen. 41:45) from the king of the country. The meaning of this also needs explanation. Joseph is by interpretation “addition,” and conventional goods are an adjunct of natural goods. The former are such as gold, silver, chattels, revenues, services of menials, abundant stocks of heirlooms and furniture and all other luxuries, and the instruments of pleasure ready to hand in numberless forms.
