We have explained in our article Biblical Formatting located on the world wide web at http://www.Rashiyomi.com/biblicalformatting.pdf, that the Biblical Author indicates bold, italics, underline by using repetition. In other words if a modern author wanted to emphasize a word they would either underline, bold or italicize it. However when the Biblical author wishes to emphasize a word He repeats it. The effect - whether thru repetition or using underline - is the same. It is only the means of conveying this emphasis that is different.

Verse Gn37-07c discussing Joseph's dream of the standing sheafs states for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves came round about, and bowed down to my sheaf.' Note the repetition indicated by the underlined words. This repetition creates an unspecified emphasis. Rashi comments The phrase arose and also stood upright connotes a permanant standing in which the sheaf remains standing. (An ordinary object, stood up, would fall if its center of gravity was high enough...so the dream showed a standing that remained without subsequent falling).

Advanced Rashi: Undoubtedly, the permanant standing connotes the non-transient reign of Joseph.
