John Gill Commentary Genesis 41:32

"And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh, it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass." — Genesis 41:32 (ASV)

And for that the dream was doubled to Pharaoh twice
Or was repeated to him under different figures and images: it is because the thing is established by God ;
by a firm decree of his, and is sure, and will most certainly be accomplished; of which Pharaoh might be assured, and the repetition of the dream was made to assure him of it.

and God will shortly bring it to pass :
or "make haste to do it" ^F15 , that is, would soon begin to accomplish these events; for, as Bishop Usher ^F16 observes, from the harvest of this (the then present) year, the seven years of plenty are reckoned.
