Genesis 41:1-41, God Warns of a Coming Famine; How John Calvin's Commentary on this Passage has Been Used to Justify the Subjugation of Women

-41 from the Good News Translation, Today's English Version. In this story, God warns the King of Egypt through his dreams that a famine is coming. Joseph correctly interprets these dreams, and then helps Egypt prepare for the coming hardship. As a result, Joseph is elevated to a position of power in Egypt. As strange as it may seem, influential patriarchal theologians--past and present--make an inaccurate assumption about God, based on this story. This faulty assumption is then used to justify the subjugation of women to male authority.
