What does the Bible say about the butler and the baker?

Answered in 1 source

The butler and the baker in Genesis 40 represent two types of people: those chosen by God and those relying on their own works.

In Genesis 40, the butler and the baker symbolize two distinct groups of humanity: the butler represents the elect of God, chosen, redeemed, and dependent on Christ's righteousness, while the baker represents those who trust in their own works for acceptance before God. Joseph's interpretation of their dreams reveals this dichotomy, illustrating the ultimate destination of each group—one to restoration and blessing, the other to judgment and wrath due to self-reliance and the rejection of God's grace.
