Manasseh and Ephraim are born during the years of plenty
Joseph gathered grain throughout Egypt during the seven abundant years. Before the famine, Asenath bore Manasseh and Ephraim, whose names remembered God's help in Joseph's suffering and fruitfulness (Genesis 41:47-52).

📖 Genesis 41:47–49
47During the seven years of abundance, the land brought forth bountifully. 48During those seven years, Joseph collected all the excess food in the land of Egypt and stored it in the cities. In every city he laid up the food from the fields around it. 49So Joseph stored up grain in such abundance, like the sand of the sea, that he stopped keeping track of it; for it was beyond measure.
