In this passage, Joseph interprets Pharaoh’s dreams, explaining that both dreams carry the same message:
God is revealing what He is about to do in Egypt.

• The seven fat cows and seven healthy heads of grain represent seven years of abundance.

• The seven thin cows and seven scorched heads of grain represent seven years of severe famine.

• The repetition of the dream means the matter is firmly decided by God and will happen soon.

Joseph makes it clear that God, not man, holds the future, and He reveals His plans to those who listen.
