The following article is about Joseph as the Master of Time. As such, dreams are analogous to time, as he was derisively called the Master of Dreams, Ba'al ha-Chalomot (591 in the Torah's spelling, same as "all Israel").
Egypt is antithetical to this free, unobstructed flow of time, i.e., to the progress. Egypt in Hebrew is MiTzRaYiM, spelled Mem–Tzadik-Resh-Yud-Mem. This word could be broken into two—MeTzaR (constriction) and Yud-Mem. The numerical value (gematria) of Yud-Mem is 50, symbolizing the fifty gates of understanding, i.e., the Divine emanation of Binah (Rosh HaShanah 21b). In Chasidut—the philosophy of Chabad—intellectual faculties of Chochmah (Abba-father) and Binah (Immah-mother) are seen as parents giving birth to the emotions (Da’at-toldot-children). In Kabbalah, the same triad of Divine emanations—Chochmah-Binah-Da’at—can also be interpreted in terms of time, where Chochmah represents the past, Binah represents the future and Da’at represents the present.
Compare America as the Lord of Dreams (being sole owner/ba'al of the American Dream) to Manifest Destiny [הייעוד הגלוי] and Columbia the dove, the spirit of revelation (light) hovering over the face of the waters:
American Progress, (1872) by John Gast, is an allegorical representation of the modernization of the new west. Columbia, a personification of the United States, is shown leading civilization westward with the American settlers. She is shown bringing light from the East into the West, stringing telegraph wire, holding a school textbook that will instill knowledge,[1] and highlights different stages of economic activity and evolving forms of transportation.[2]

Chochmah represents the past...
Which reminds me of the writing on the wall, what's visible in the present while everyone is at the tavern, oblivious to the time:
Dan 5.5. In the same hour the fingers of a man's hand appeared, and wrote opposite the lampstand upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace; and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote:
Y
'
S
Y'S (wise), whys, why's... how many questions (4, why is this night different..)
Nobody likes a wise guy, but whatever... he owns the place and the time. GUY'S place, you might say. At No. 9.
Note that the hand, by pointing downward toward the location of the door at that time, and to the rejected stone that had become the head of the corner three times (at three different places of upcycling, at each end and then the final location in the middle, with the third time's the charm in 1835)...
... is also the letter Q, fingerspelling for the deaf.
There's a fascinating little article here at 79 about people receiving name signs. Also, name signs are given to political figures, so they are not restricted to members of the deaf community. The names even work in puns on the hearing world's language, especially as word plays on an individual's character. Now if a wise guy rates his own name sign and it's a Q, what kind of a character is that? The type who is always asking a lot of questions. How else would he be capable of designing all manner of ingenious gadgets. That's progress.
Y is for Yid, the guy who is a Jew, who is easily recognized by his kippa. A guy can point to a kippa and say, "There's a Jew." Nothing hidden about that Yid.
Q.E.D.
953 (9 + stone) is a very busy number/place. Here are a few examples:
House of Israel
Coordinated Universal Time
Holy One of Israel
Solomon 375 Yedidiah 43 Kohelet 535 (the sum of the names of the world-famous wisest king ever)
And what is his son's name, if you can tell
And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed
Discover the unknown.. it's all the same name and soul, past, present, or future.
Exo 3.
3. And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt:
4. And when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses; And he said, Here am I:
YHVH ki sar lirot = 953
Heh, I was not even looking for that, but there it was for the checking. I'll add it to my list. After all, it states the time when the Lord saw that Moses turned aside to see:
Coordinated Universal Time (abbreviated to UTC) is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time.

America has been saving the world since she came out of WWII as a superpower and devised a plan to rebuild Western Civ. The world hates America the Can-Do nation but assumes she's going to come along to save all the world's worthless ingrates from themselves anyway.
You'd think the brothers would have recognized Joseph because only Joseph would have known all the stuff that the lord of Egypt knew.
Master of Dreams... Master of Time, Joseph the "Time Man", the owner of time: ba'al hazman. 204. "Tzaddik"
Yoseph ha-Tzaddik; Yosef ha-Ba'al Hazman.
Nothing new under the sun, because
As we have already seen, early on Joseph is linked to the fulfillment of Jacob's legacy.
These are the generations of Jacob, Joseph was seventeen years old ...[Genesis 37:2]
At the outset, the Torah connects Jacob with Joseph. Of all his sons specifically Joseph holds the key to not only Jacob's but the family's ission. In this Torah portion, we will examine the implications of that mission from the mystical -- that is Kabbalistic -- standpoint. To do so, we must go back to the point where all it first began:
The typo draws the reader to the word [m]ission, which is the reversal of time (who else but Joseph?):
emit (v.)
1620s, from Latin emittere "send forth," from assimilated form of ex "out" (see ex-) + mittere "to send" (see mission). Related: Emitted; emitting.
Gen 45
4. And Joseph said to his brothers, Come near me, I beg you; And they came near; And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt:
5. Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here; for God did send me before you to preserve life:
The date (time) that a business was established is often marked on the physical building as "Est. [year]". It's kind of a pun on time itself, EST (UTC - 5). Also, because standard time in the US is 127 days, you could call EST "Esther" time as well, when the light is hidden from view in the winter months.
These are the generations of Jacob, Joseph was seventeen years old ...[Genesis 37:2]
(we must go back to The Point where all it first began)
UTC (953) minus 5 = 948, 9 x 4 x 8, same as 1948: 1 x 9 x 4 x 8 = 288...
1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth:
2. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep; And a spirit from God hovered [m-288-t] over the face of the waters:
3. And God said, Let there be light; and there was light [238, 288 - 50]:
Another detail about time, and darkness verses light: in the current US division between daylight saving and standard time, daylight time is 238 days. When no leap day is involved, standard time is 127 days.
Exciting stuff! It's like crack to data (daat) wonks. No wonder the Patriarchs were looking forward in eager anticipation to these days, times, heh.
Joseph (as well as the king's daughter) wore a special coat, a ketonet passim.
passim: here, there, and everywhere
