41:50-52 In spite of his position and authority, Joseph never abandoned his heritage; he gave Hebrew names to his two sons. • Manasseh: Joseph’s prosperity and success made him “forget” the misery of separation from his family. • Ephraim: In so naming him, Joseph proclaimed his gratitude to God for making him “fruitful” in Egypt.
