Firstly, the Prophet writes, 'waiting - ‫ שומר‬for the realization (of Hashem's promise to bring the redemption).' It is also written in scripture, 'Do not wait - ‫ תשמור‬for my sin,' meaning do not wait." Difficulties in Understanding Rashi It seems clear that Rashi is only explaining one word from the verse upon which he is commenting, the term "Shomar - ‫שמר‬." Although in the overwhelming majority of places that we use this verb, it means guarded, he tells us that here, it means waiting. In our verse, it says that Yosef's "father awaited the matter," which the Torah writes in Hebrew ".‫" ואביו שמר את הדבר‬The word "Es - ‫ "את‬is inserted after the word "waited." Accordingly, it is challenging to say ‫ שמר‬means waited (i.e., was expecting) because if that was the case, the terms "waited" and "matter" should not be separated! Therefore, Rashi brings additional proof from Iyov, "‫ לא תשמור על חטאתי‬- Do not wait for my sin." Here, the meaning is waiting, even though there is the word ‫ על‬meaning "upon" in the sense of "for" ("Do not wait on, meaning for my sin.”) separating the words "wait" and "sin." From this, we understand that even with the name "Es - ‫ "את‬between ‫שמר‬ and ‫דבר‬, it can still have the meaning of waiting for and expecting something.
