“And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”
You have saved our lives, they said. May we find favor in the eyes of our lord; we will be in bondage to Pharaoh. The gratitude of the people — you have saved our lives — is the testimony to Joseph's governance of the crisis. The application: the person who manages crisis well receives the gratitude of those who survive because of the management. The people acknowledge what has been done for them.
