39 Και ειπεν ο Φαραω προς τον Ιωσηφ, Επειδη ο Θεος εδειξεν εις σε παντα ταυτα, δεν ειναι ουδεις τοσον συνετος και φρονιμος οσον συ.

5203. Evil in look. That this signifies that were not of faith, is evident from the signification of “beautiful in look,” as being that were of faith (of which just above, n. 5199); hence in this passage “evil in look” denotes that were not of faith.
