Genesis 47:16
_ _ And Joseph said, Give your cattle — “This was the wisest course that could be adopted for the preservation both of the people and the cattle, which, being bought by Joseph, was supported at the royal expense, and very likely returned to the people at the end of the famine, to enable them to resume their agricultural labors.” |
- Give your cattle:
- This was the wisest measure that could be adopted, both for the preservation of the people and the cattle. As the people had not grain for their own sustenance, consequently they could have none for their cattle. Hence they were in the most imminent danger of starving; and the people also were in equal danger; as they must have divided a portion of that bought for themselves with the cattle, which, for the sake of tillage, etc., they wished of course to preserve till the seven years' famine should end.
Daniel 6:5-7 Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find [it] against him concerning the law of his God. ... All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.
Proverbs 12:17 [He that] speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

Colossians 4:5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
