1It happened after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.

Daniel 4:8, Genesis 37:5, Genesis 37:10, Daniel 2:31, Daniel 4:10
10and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes.
11Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand."

12Joseph said to him, "This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.

16When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, "I also was in my dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.
Genesis 40:1, Genesis 40:2, Genesis 40:1, Genesis 40:2
17In the uppermost basket there was all kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head."
Genesis 49:20, Genesis 49:20, 1 Chronicles 12:20, 1 Chronicles 12:20
18Joseph answered, "This is its interpretation. The three baskets are three days.

22but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
