Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Genesis 41:1-57

Chapter 41For audio go to chapter 39Now it came to pass at the end of two full years ( Genesis 41:1 ), That is after Joseph said "don't forget me, pal". "Oh, I won't." "At the end of two full years," that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river. And there came up out of the river seven well favoured cows, fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 41:1-57

Genesis 41:1. Pharaoh dreamed. See on Isaiah 4:2. Whatever be the pleas of atheism and materialism against dreams of a prophetic character, it is evident enough from the gentile mythology, and from profane history, that they were fully accredited by the best and wisest of men. Cicero dreamed that while wandering in a solitary place, and much depressed in spirit, C. Marius came to him, and asked, why are you so dejected? To whom he replied, “It is because I have been unjustly driven out of... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Genesis 41:25

Gen 41:25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh [is] one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he [is] about to do. Ver. 25. The dream of Pharaoh is one. ] One in signification, but diverse in respect of vision. Why it was doubled, Gen 41:32 Repetitions in Scripture are not tautologies, but serve to set forth to us the necessity, excellency, or difficulty of the thing so reinforced. "To write" to the Philippians "the same things," to St Paul, "it is not grievous, and for them it is safe."... read more

Gen 41:33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. Ver. 33. Now therefore let Pharaoh, &c. ] This was good counsel, and it proved best to the counsellor. The Jews injuriously charge him with ambitious self-seeking: so they did Noah, as is above noted, with hard-heartedness and incompassionateness to the old world. These made the worst of things, and so condemned the generation of God’s children. How much better had it been to have... read more

Gen 41:34 Let Pharaoh do [this], and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years. Ver. 34. And take up the fifth part of the land. ] For so much money as it is worth. The Egyptians might well spare it, and the king might as well buy it, since he should sell it again for very good profit. Neither would Joseph advise, nor Pharaoh be advised, to take his subjects’ goods by violence. When Samuel tells the people that their... read more

Gen 41:35 And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. Ver. 35. And let them gather all the food. ] This text warranteth providence in laying up for a rainy day. Solomon sends us to school to the ant to learn this lesson.
