“And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.”
Joseph found favor in his eyes and became his attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household, and he entrusted to his care everything he owned. The promotion from slave to household manager is the covenant blessing in operation: Joseph is elevated to the limit of his position. The application: the LORD's presence with Joseph does not remove him from slavery — it maximizes his flourishing within it. The blessing operates within the constraint, not by removing the constraint.
