Commento su Genesi 41:42
וַיָּ֨סַר פַּרְעֹ֤ה אֶת־טַבַּעְתּוֹ֙ מֵעַ֣ל יָד֔וֹ וַיִּתֵּ֥ן אֹתָ֖הּ עַל־יַ֣ד יוֹסֵ֑ף וַיַּלְבֵּ֤שׁ אֹתוֹ֙ בִּגְדֵי־שֵׁ֔שׁ וַיָּ֛שֶׂם רְבִ֥ד הַזָּהָ֖ב עַל־צַוָּארֽוֹ׃
E Faraone si tolse di mano l’anello, e lo pose sulla mano di Giuseppe; indi gli fece indossare abiti di bisso, e gli pose al collo la catena d’oro.
Rashi on Genesis
ויסר פרעה את טבעתו AND PHARAOH TOOK OFF HIS RING — When the king gives his ring it is a sign that the person to whom he hands it is to be second to him in rank.

Ramban on Genesis
AND PHARAOH TOOK OFF HIS RING FROM HIS HAND. The giving of the king’s ring is a sign that the person to whom he hands it is to be second to him in rank. Thus the language of Rashi.
The correct interpretation is that the king’s ring contains his seal, just as it is said, And sealed with the king’s ring.65Esther 8:8. The king thus gave Joseph his seal so that he should be a leader and commander66Isaiah 55:4. of the entire government, and seal with the king’s ring whatever he desires.
