What does the Torah mean when it writes "va'Yet Eilav Chased"?

1.

Rashi: It means that Hashem drew everyone to him - he found favor in everybody's eyes.

2.

Ohr ha'Chayim: Hashem put his Shechinah on him, and automatically he had grace in the eyes of all.

3.

Malbim: Hashem caused Yosef to be established to be innocent, and afterwards gave him grace in the eyes of all, even though the chief prison warden [normally] acts based on habit (he engages in cruelty).

4.

Ha'amek Davar: "Va'Yet" is above nature. Normally, there is no grace and Chesed among prisoners - they are criminals and thieves! Even so, through Hashgachah, there was grace on Yosef; all the inmates did Chesed with and honored him.
