"And at the end of two years" (41, 1).

This verse opens the redemption story of Joseph from prison and when he came to an end ("after") period of his imprisonment.

The word "termination" (in Hebrew) is also itself suggests the imposition of limitations - in prison, for "termination"means restriction.

Joseph the righteous, even when he was in prison, where the "termination" conditions, there was not a prisoner in his soul. The Torah he learned at his father's home was in his heart, it is lit the darkness of prison and filled it with joy and pleasure unlimited.

Prison restrictions that limit could not really. As such, limiting his sentence was indeed only temporary, and soon his release from prison he came to be king of all Egypt.

Joseph's prison house, the place where prisoners of the King prohibited. This implies limited world, the souls of Israel were taken - the sons of G-d "dress up" the limited body to hold a Torah. Striking resemblance to the prison especially during the exile.

We must remember Joseph and know that the reality of any restriction is foreign to us, as a Jew is essentially unlimited. Therefore there is no doubt that the current limitations period is temporary, and aims to illuminate the world, as well as disadvantaged and exile, in the light of Torah and mitzvot, and since it was filled mission was redemption right.
