76. Then he (Yusuf) began with their bags before (opening) his brother’s bag. Then he took that (goblet) out of his brother’s bag. In this way, We devised a plan for Yusuf. He could not have held his brother under the king’s law unless Allah had so willed. We elevate in degrees whomever We please. And above every man of knowledge is one who knows better.*
* It may also mean: ‘Above every man of knowledge, there is the One Who is All-Knowing.’
