The first verse of this section does not say the owner of the estate is on a trip, but it is implied there and confirmed here in verse 46. This newly-named supervisor is not over the family members that were left behind, but he is responsible for seeing that they have food along with all the servants. However, he has authority over the business affairs of the owner in his absence, at least the ones located on the homestead.
