Footnotes
The command "whatever he says to you, do" (כֹּל אֲשֶׁר יֹאמַר לָכֶם תַּעֲשׂוּ) is strikingly echoed in John 2:5, where Mary says of Yeshua at Cana, "Whatever He tells you, do it." Whether echo or providence, Par'oh's directive about Yosef—the provider in whom the Spirit of Elohim dwells, to whom all peoples come for the bread of life—anticipates the greater Provider to whom all authority would ultimately be given.
