אעלה ואגידה לפרעה. וכי ארץ מצרים עומדת בהר שאמר אעלה אלא עד עכשיו כשהיה מדבר עם אביו ירד מן המרכבה לכבודו ועכשיו אמר אעלה על המרכבה שלי ואלך ואגידה לפרעה: אעלה ואגידה לפרעה, “I will go up and tell Pharaoh;” was Egypt then a hilly country that the Torah describes Joseph as “going up” to Pharaoh? Up until now, when Joseph had been speaking with his father, he had first descended from his chariot in order to do so. Now he is quoted as again mounting his chariot in order to tell Pharaoh about his father’s having come to Egypt.
