“And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.”
The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy, full heads. Then Pharaoh woke up; it had been a dream. The repetition of the consuming image — thin swallowing full — is the dream's conclusion. Pharaoh wakes again; the double dream has shaken him. The application: the double dream that repeats its disturbing image is the dream that requires interpretation most urgently.
