Genesis 41:14
Compare all
12 Now there was a young aHebrew man with us there, a bservant of the captain of the guard. And we told him, and he cinterpreted our dreams for us; to each man he interpreted according to his own dream.  
13 And it came to pass, just aas he interpreted for us, so it happened. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”  
14 aThen Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they bbrought him quickly cout of the dungeon; and he shaved, dchanged his clothing, and came to Pharaoh.  
15 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. aBut I have heard it said of you that you can understand a dream, to interpret it.”  
16 So Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, a“It is not in me; bGod will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”

Genesis 41:14

They brought him hastily out of the dungeon - Pharaoh was in perplexity on account of his dreams; and when he heard of Joseph, he sent immediately to get him brought before him. He shaved himself - having let his beard grow all the time he was in prison, he now trimmed it, for it is not likely that either the Egyptians or Hebrews shaved themselves in our sense of the word: the change of raiment was, no doubt, furnished out of the king' s wardrobe; as Joseph, in his present circumstances, could not be supposed to have any changes of raiment.
