TT #2 · Parashas Mikeitz · First Aliyah · Passuk 41:13
וַיְהִ֛י כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר פָּֽתַר־לָ֖נוּ כֵּ֣ן הָיָ֑ה אֹתִ֛י הֵשִׁ֥יב עַל־כַּנִּ֖י וְאֹת֥וֹ תָלָֽה׃
And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.
Torah Temimah points to Berachos 55b (and parallel Yerushalmi).
א״ר אלעזר, מניין שכל החלומות הולכין אחר הפה, שנאמר ויהי כאשר פתר לנו כן היה.
English: R’ Elazar said: From where do we know that all dreams follow the mouth [i.e., the interpretation]? As it is said, “And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was.” Rava said: This is when he interprets it according to the content of the dream, as it is said, “each according to his dream he interpreted.”
On the daf / in context: The Gemara teaches that a dream’s outcome follows its interpretation, provided the interpretation fits the dream; this is why a dream should be interpreted in a favorable manner when possible.
Type of Learning: Derash on the verse (Bavli sugya) — not a formal named middah of the 13; the sugya establishes that dreams follow their interpretation.
What Is Learned: Dreams are realized according to the interpretation spoken over them. A person should therefore seek or give a favorable interpretation so that the dream unfolds for good.
