VERSE: Gn41-01a

RULE: There are several method to denote that something
happened AFTER something else


EXAMPLES
--------
(1) "And Adam lived 130 years, AND he gave birth to Sheth"

     In this method you indicate "AFTERWARDS" by LISTING
     the 2 items sequentially in a sentence
     (cf all of Gn05)

     This method is used when 2 events happened one RIGHT
     after the other



(2)  "And AFTER these events, God said to Abraham..."

     In this method you indicate AFTERWARDS by using the
     word AFTERWARDS (Cf Gn22-01)

     This method is used when one event happened SOME
     TIME AFTERWARDS but not necessarily immediately
     after another one



(3)  "At the COMPLETION of 6 months of bathing in perfume
     baths, they then visited King Achasveyrush for an evening"

     In this method "AFTERWARDS" is indicated using the word
     COMPLETION

     This method is used when something is a PREREQUISITE for
     something else (So the perfuming was a prequisite for
     coming to the King)*1


APPLICATION TO Gn41-01
----------------------
   The word COMPLETION is used in Gn41-01
  "At the COMPLETION of 2 years Pharoh had a dream (Which
   Joseph would interpret and enable him to become vice
   king)"

   Since the word COMPLETION is used, therefore
   we infer that the 2 years were a PREREQUISITE
   for Joseph coming to Pharoh. Since during this 2 year
   period Joseph was making contacts and relying on people
   to redeem him we infer that he had to get "over this
   stage"(of depending on people) in order to be worthy
   (in Gods eye) to be vice-king.
