וַיָּ֨סַר פַּרְעֹ֤ה אֶת־טַבַּעְתּוֹ֙ מֵעַ֣ל יָד֔וֹ וַיִּתֵּ֥ן אֹתָ֖הּ עַל־יַ֣ד יוֹסֵ֑ף וַיַּלְבֵּ֨שׁ אֹת֜וֹ בִּגְדֵי־שֵׁ֗שׁ וַיָּ֛שֶׂם רְבִ֥ד הַזָּהָ֖ב עַל־צַוָּארֽוֹ׃
And Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it upon Yosef’s hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
Classical midrash on the symbols of authority transferred to Yosef.
טַבַּעְתּוֹ... בִּגְדֵי שֵׁשׁ... רְבִד הַזָּהָב. שְׁלֹשָׁה סִימָנֵי שְׂרָרָה עָבְרוּ לְיוֹסֵף.
English of Core Text: The signet ring… garments of fine linen… the gold chain. Three symbols of authority passed to Yosef.
On the daf / in context: The midrash treats the transfer of the ring (power to seal), the linen garments (royal dignity), and the gold chain (public honor) as the visible investiture that makes Yosef’s new status irreversible.
Type of Learning: Derash on the verse (classic midrash) — not a formal named middah of the 13.
What Is Learned: Authority is conferred through concrete, public symbols; once the ring, the garments, and the chain are given, Yosef’s elevation is complete and visible to all Egypt.
