Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 19. - Until the time that his word came; i.e. "came true," "came to pass" (comp. Deuteronomy 18:22; Jeremiah 17:15). Joseph's "word came," when the chief butler was restored to favour, and the chief baker hanged (Genesis 40:20-22). The word of the Lord tried him. It is difficult to decide what "word of the Lord" is meant. Hengstenberg suggests "the promise of the possession of Canaan." But this had not been made to him. Dean Johnson thinks that there is an "implied promise" to Joseph himself in Genesis 37:5, 9, etc. - a promise that he should be raised to an eminent rank above his brethren, and that it was this promise which, during the time of his affliction, "tried" or tested him.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(19) Until the time that his word came--i.e., until his (Joseph's) interpretation of the dreams was fulfilled (Genesis 41:12). (For the expression "his word came," equal to "came to pass," comp. Judges 13:12.)Word of the Lord.--As a different Hebrew word from that in the previous clause is used, better render, saying (or, oracle) of Jehovah.Tried him.--Better, purified him, i.e., proved him innocent of the charge for which he was imprisoned. (For this sense of the verb, see Psalm 17:3; Psalm 18:30; Proverbs 30:5, margin.) The psalmist means that by enabling him to foretell the dreams of Pharaoh's servants, God brought about the proof of his innocence. . . .
