was the captain of the guard and the keeper of the king’s prison, and he put Joseph into the prison to wait upon the prisoners.
The king of Egypt was called Pharaoh. And in Pharaoh’s prison at that time were the king’s chief butler and chief baker. One morning, when Joseph took them their breakfast, he saw that they both looked very sad.
So he said, “What is the matter? Why do you look so sad?”
They said, “We have each had a strange dream, and nobody can tell us what it means.”
Joseph said, “Tell me what it was.”
Then the butler answered, “In my dream I saw a vine with three branches, and ripe grapes grew upon them, and I pressed the juice into Pharaoh’s cup.”
