Footnotes

  1. Genesis 41:42 The ring, fine linen robes, and gold neck-chain are the insignia of authority; they may also be seen on monuments. “Make way!”: Hebrew, Abrech, which may also mean “Kneel down!” and be a command to show supreme honor. Zaphenath-peneah: the meaning of the name is obscure; perhaps it means “God says: He is alive” or “He who explains hidden things.”
