Joseph is now 28 years old and in the royal prison of Pharaoh.  Two notable prisoners will join him,   They are the chief butler and chief baker.  We are not certain what they did to offend the king of Egypt, but in the providence of God they end up in the same prison as Joseph.  In the process of time, they each have dreams about their futures.  Joseph declared that the interpretations belong to God alone and went on to interpret the dreams respectively.  One prisoner would be released, and the other executed.  Joseph pleads with the pardoned prisoner to remember him, to no avail.
