Jewish 1105 · Rashi on the Pentateuch, Genesis 41:13

Rashi, on Gen 41:13

Rashi · 1040–1105
Gen 41:13 · Douay-Rheims
“And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.”
On this verse:
“השיב על כני HE RESTORED UNTO MY OFFICE — he means Pharaoh who was mentioned before, where it is said (v. 10) “Pharaoh was wroth with his servants”. The phrase is elliptical not stating explicitly who restored, for it is not necessary to state explicitly who restored: obviously he who has the power to restore viz, Pharaoh. This is the ease with all elliptical sentences — they leave the matter indefinite as to who has to do the action (i.e. they omit the subject of the verb).”
