Midrash su Genesi 47:26
וַיָּ֣שֶׂם אֹתָ֣הּ יוֹסֵ֡ף לְחֹק֩ עַד־הַיּ֨וֹם הַזֶּ֜ה עַל־אַדְמַ֥ת מִצְרַ֛יִם לְפַרְעֹ֖ה לַחֹ֑מֶשׁ רַ֞ק אַדְמַ֤ת הַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ לְבַדָּ֔ם לֹ֥א הָיְתָ֖ה לְפַרְעֹֽה׃
Giuseppe la stabilì [questa cosa] qual legge (sussistente) sino a quest’oggi, sul terreno dell’Egitto, a vantaggio di Faraone, che gli fosse (cioè) pagato il quinto (dei prodotti). Però il terreno dei soli sacerdoti non divenne di Faraone.
Ein Yaakov (Glick Edition)
R. Malai. in the name of R. Isaac, said further: "Since the day when Joseph departed from his brothers, he tasted no wine, as it is written (Gen. 47, 26.) And on the crown of the head of him who was separated from his brother." R. Jose b. Chanina said: "The brothers of Joseph also did not taste wine, for it is said (Ib. 43, 34.) And they drank and were merry with him. We infer that without him they did not drink." But the former (R. Malai) holds this refers to being drunk but not to tasting. R Malai further said: "As a reward [due to Aaron] for, And when he sees thee, he shall be glad in his heart (Ex. 4, 14) , he was given the Choshen Hamishpat on his heart."
