Genesis 37:36

36 the Midianites in Egypt sold Joseph to Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, instructor of the soldiers. ^{▼▼37:36The word ‘magistro’ has more of the meaning of a teacher or instructor, than of a captain or magistrate. This eunuch was an instructor of the soldiers (probably of the new recruits), not an officer over the active duty soldiers.(Conte)
,} ^{▼▼37:36 An eunuch: This word sometimes signifies a chamberlain, courtier, or officer of the king: and so it is taken in this place.(Challoner)}
