Genesis 41:30 - God's Purpose for Joseph in Egypt

And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land
and the famine shall consume the land:This famine was not only very severe in Egypt, it also devastated the land of his father's household in Canaan (Genesis 47:13). For this reason, God placed Joseph in Egypt to be a savior to his people.
