5799. 'For as you are, so is Pharaoh' means that he has control over the natural. This is clear from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as the natural in general, dealt with in 5160; and from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal, dealt with previously. The control exercised by the internal over the natural is represented by Joseph's being placed in charge over all the land of Egypt as well as over the whole of Pharaoh's house, Genesis 41:40-41.
