Verse 23. Your God. To Him we must always refer what advantage we derive from men. He inspired Joseph to give such orders to his steward.—I have for good. I received it, and was satisfied that it was good: you need not be uneasy; you are not suspected of any fraud. Bible.—Hebrew “Your money came into my hands.” Menochius.
