Genesis 41:44Meaning & Commentary from the Church Fathers

In addition to everything else that fell under Joseph's authority, the military leaders and the royal nobles were also under his command.

I am Pharaoh: without you no one will be able to act in any way. This signifies that I hold the position of a sovereign ruler, yet I place my authority in your hands. In other words, through the absolute power of a king, I decree that all things will be subject to your command.
