Commentary
And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again,.... Put him into the same office he was in before:
and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand; ministered to him in his office the same day, according to his dream and the interpretation of it: the Targum of Jonathan adds this as a reason of his being restored,"because he found that he was not in that counsel,''in which it was consulted to poison Pharaoh; see Gill on
Gen 40:1
