Kejadian 47:6

47:6 The land of Egypt is before you; settle your father and your brothers in the best region of the land. They may live in the land of Goshen. If you know of any highly capable men ²  among them, put them in charge ³  of my livestock.”

[45:27]  ¹ tn Heb “and they spoke to him all the words of Joseph which he had spoke to them.”

[47:6]  ² tn Heb “men of skill.”

[47:6]  ³ tn Heb “make them rulers.”

[47:6]  sn Put them in charge of my livestock. Pharaoh is, in effect, offering Joseph’s brothers jobs as royal keepers of livestock, a position mentioned often in Egyptian inscriptions, because the Pharaohs owned huge herds of cattle.
