6636. THE INTERNAL SENSE

Verses 1-5 And these are the names of the children of Israel who came to Egypt with Jacob - a man and his household they came: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah; Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin; Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher. And every soul, those who came out of Jacob's thigh, were seventy souls; and Joseph was in Egypt.

'These are the names of the sons of Israel' means the essential nature of the Church. 'Who came to Egypt with Jacob' means after truths have been introduced into factual knowledge.' A man and his household they came' means in regard to truth and in regard to good. 'Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah; Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin; Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher' means the whole process from start to finish. 'And every soul, those who came out of Jacob's thigh' means everything that springs from general truth. 'Were seventy souls' means that which was complete. 'And Joseph was in Egypt' means that the internal celestial was within the natural.
