Second time. See Gen. 45:1-4.

Was made known. This phrase appears twice in this verse in the KJV. In the second instance, the Greek original is different and should be translated “became manifest.”

Kindred. Gr. genos, “race.” Joseph had not sought to conceal his Hebrew origin (Gen. 41:12), but until this crisis it was not generally known. Now Pharaoh himself was aware of it (Gen. 45:16).
