Joseph 1  made all the people slaves 2  from one end of Egypt’s border to the other end of it.

Ge 41:48

NET © Notes

tn Heb “and he”; the referent (Joseph) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tc The MT reads “and the people he removed to the cities,” which does not make a lot of sense in this context. The Samaritan Pentateuch and the LXX read “he enslaved them as slaves.”
