Shackles for the feet. It is said of Joseph that his feet were hurt with fetters (Psa. 105:18 18Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron: (Psalm 105:18)). They are spoken of as being made of brass and of iron, fetter suggests a restraining so severe that freedom to move or progress is almost lost. Reading vs 17 through 21 . 17He sent a man before them—Joseph—who was sold as a slave.18They hurt his feet with fetters,a]He was laid in irons.
19Until the time that his word came to pass,
The word of the Lord tested him.20The king sent and released him,The ruler of the people let him go free.21He made him lord of his house,And ruler of all his possessions,
