But God works for Joseph, and in the prison puts him in contact with the chief butler and the chief baker of the king of Egypt (Genesis 40). They too have their dreams to tell.
Joseph willingly listens, and interprets according to the wisdom of God that was given him. His interpretation was soon verified. With the remarkable prudence which marks his character, he had begged not to be forgotten. But “his soul came into iron” a little longer. The word of Jehovah tried him.
God would work in His own way. If the chief butler forgot Joseph in his prosperity, God did not.
