OF Pharaohs Butler and Baker, and Pharaoh himself and the Egyptians.
OF Pharaohs Butler and Baker, and Pharaoh himselfe and the Aegyptians.
Before I speak of Joseph, 1some thing must be noted of a few more with whom he lived and had occasion of commerce. First, the Butler and Baker of Pharaoh, in whom we may take notice, 1. That they were both Officers to a mighty King. 2. That they both did offend or seemed to offend their King. 3. They both were imprisoned. 4. That they both dreamed true dreams, somewhat like in appearance but quite contrary in signification. Lastly, that they felt the effect of their dreams, and that the Butler was forgetful of Joseph a great while but at last remembered him. So we have their good deeds, their bad deeds, their benefits,2 their crosses.
BEfore I speake of Ioseph, 1some thing must be noted of a few more with whom he lived and had occasion of commerce. First, the Butler and Baker of Pharaoh, in whom wee may take notice, 1. That they were both Officers to a mighty King. 2. That they both did offend or seemed to offend their King. 3. They both were imprisoned. 4. That they both dreamed true dreames, somewhat like in appearance but quite contrary in signification. Lastly, that they felt the effect of their dreames, and that the Butler was forgetfull of Ioseph a great while but at last remembred him. So wee have their good deeds, their bad deeds, their benefits,2 their crosses.
