“Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron: he: Heb. his soul came into iron”
Psalms 105:18 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 105:18
Joseph's feet were 'hurt with fetters' and he was 'laid in iron.' This describes his imprisonment's harsh reality. Yet this suffering was preparatory—the testing before exaltation. 'Hurt' (innah) suggests affliction and humiliation. Iron chains symbolize complete powerlessness. Yet God was present in Joseph's imprisonment, ultimately exalting him. Christ suffered bonds (John 18:12, 24) before His exaltation. The Reformed understanding of suffering recognizes God's sanctifying purposes in believers' trials (Rom 5:3-5, James 1:2-4).
