פּירוש אויף בראשית 41:38

(On verses 37-38:) What did Pharaoh see to say to his servants, "Could we find another like him, a man in whom is the spirit of God," and that he said to him, "there is no one wise and understanding like you," and that he made him the master over his entire household and ruler over the entire land of Egypt - before he knew whether his words would be substantiated and whether the thing would come to effect as he had interpreted or not?! As behold, the chief wine steward did not do a thing [for just this reason], when he interpreted his dream positively. As maybe the thing would not be as he had interpreted it to Pharaoh. And if so, why did he raise him before the thing was tested? And he also [prematurely] gave him a wife from the notables of the land.

“Could we find another like him, a man in whom is the spirit of God?” [41:38]. Pharaoh was very pleased with Joseph’s advice and [it found favor] in the eyes of the nobles. Pharaoh said: is there found such a man in whom is the spirit of God?

Ramban writes. Since the Egyptians hated Hebrews very much, and when a Hebrew touched a piece of bread, they considered the bread impure. Thus, Pharaoh thought that the Egyptians would not agree to make Joseph a viceroy. Therefore, I must talk with them and he said that one does not find an Egyptian who is so wise.²⁶Ramban, Genesis, 41:38.

הנמצא כזה CAN WE FIND SUCH A ONE AS THIS? — The Targum renders it: “can we find like this one” — meaning, “If we go to seek one could we find anyone like him?” הנמצא is a question, as is every ה prefixed to a word with the vowel Chataph Patach.
