The sefarim reveal an allusion to this scenario between Yosef and Pharaoh in the passuk (Tehillim 81,6) ‫ עדות ביהוסף שמו בצאתי על ארץ מצרים שפת לא ידעתי אשמע‬Simply translated, that the day of Rosh Hashanah was when Yosef was whisked out of the dungeon in order to be brought before Pharaoh to interpret his dream. If one decides to keep some mitzvos yes and others not, with that decision he has already concluded that he is more perfect, omniscient, rational, capable, wiser, creative compassionate, kinder, powerful, never tiring, understanding, protective, sympathetic, empathetic etc. Being a single drop of water in all the combined oceans and seas of the world, is still light years away to be used as inadequate comparison to try to demonstrate how small of a degree the most brilliant human being is capable of fathoming Hashem's true existence.

Yosef who knew the dream even before Pharaoh told him (Tanchumah Mikeitz 3) thereby also noticed that particular change that Pharaoh made in his dream with the word ‫ שפת‬instead of ‫על‬. The Yidden when they first met the gabbai were so impressed with his middos and knowledge that they were getting so excited to meet the Rebbe who would be many more times greater that the gabbai. ‫ שפת לא ידעתי אשמע‬the Egyptian language which I didn't know I was able to understand and speak because the Malach Gavriel came to me at night and
