NETBible

NET Notes

¹sn God sent me. The repetition of this theme that God sent Joseph is reminiscent of commission narratives in which the leader could announce that God sent him (e.g., Exod 3:15).

²tn Heb “to make you a remnant.” The verb, followed here by the preposition לְ (lÿ), means “to make.”

³tn The infinitive gives a second purpose for God’s action.
