Genesis 39:22

Context
39:22 The warden put all the prisoners under Joseph’s care. He was in charge of whatever they were doing. 4 

1 tn Heb “From the Lord the matter has gone out.”

2 tn Heb “We are not able to speak to you bad or good.” This means that Laban and Bethuel could not say one way or the other what they wanted, for they viewed it as God’s will.

3 tn The Hebrew text adds “in his hand,” a phrase not included in the translation for stylistic reasons.

4 tn Heb “all which they were doing there, he was doing.” This probably means that Joseph was in charge of everything that went on in the prison.
