“The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.”
The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are seven years; it is one and the same dream. The equation — cows and grain are years — is the interpretation of both images to the same referent: seven years of abundance. The application: the double imagery pointing to the same interpretation is the divine emphasis — what is coming is certain and will be of this magnitude.
