📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative of Genesis, Joseph, who had been sold into slavery by his brothers, rose to a position of power in Egypt as Pharaoh's advisor after interpreting dreams about an upcoming famine. This foresight allowed Egypt to store grain during seven years of abundance, preparing for the seven years of severe scarcity that followed. The famine described in this verse affected not only Egypt but also the surrounding regions like Canaan, where Joseph's family resided, highlighting the widespread impact of such natural disasters in ancient times.
