v4 Joseph attended, or served, them. He cared for his fellow prisoners. This is further indication of his faithfulness.
v8 Joseph had confidence in Gods ability to reveal the meaning of dreams; God is the revealer of secrets (Dan 2.28). Like Daniel, he does not claim any special power himself. Again, Gods blessing upon Joseph overflows to others.v14-15 After explaining the butlers dream, Joseph asks him to mention his case to Pharaoh.
v23 Although Joseph had been faithful, and his interpretation had proved accurate, the butler forgot him. Men do disappoint us, but God remains faithful. The butler forgot the request "remember me"; but Christ honoured the same request; see Luke 23.42.1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
