Structure See Nechama Leibowitz, עיונים בספר בראשית (Jerusalem, 1992): 310-312, who analyzes this structure, noting how Yosef's anchoring his whole speech with references to Hashem, highlights how even in the foreign society of Egypt, Yosef sees the hand of God.

- Verse 28: Attribution to God
- Verses 29-31: Content Interpretation (years of plenty / famine)
