And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
All Commentaries on Acts 7:10 Go To Acts 7
John Chrysostom
AD 407
He shows that unknowingly they helped to fulfil the prophecy, and that they were themselves the cause, and that the evils recoiled on their own selves. And gave him favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt, Gave him favor, in the eyes of a barbarian, to him, the slave, the captive: his brethren sold him, this (barbarian) honored him. Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance. But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first. And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren.
