The expression could simply mean that he greeted Pharaoh, but that seems insufficient in this setting. Jacob probably praised Pharaoh, for the verb is used this way for praising God. It is also possible that he pronounced a formal prayer of blessing, asking God to reward Pharaoh for his kindness.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Genesis%2047%3A7/2"}

It is named Rameses because of a city in that region ( Exod 1:11; 12:37 ). The use of this name may represent a modernization of the text for the understanding of the intended readers, substituting a later name for an earlier one. Alternatively, there may have been an earlier Rameses for which the region was named.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Genesis%2047%3A11/2"}

The idea of slavery is not attractive to the modern mind, but in the ancient world it was the primary way of dealing with the poor and destitute. If the people became slaves of Pharaoh, it was Pharaoh’s responsibility to feed them and care for them. It was the best way for them to survive the famine.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Genesis%2047%3A19/2"}
