Bring

  
The Offering, by François-Alfred Delobbe

To bring, in Genesis 37:28, signifies consultation.

As with common verbs in general, the meaning of “bring” is highly dependent on context, but in general it represents an introduction to a new spiritual state or to new ideas.

2997. This may also be recognized to some extent from the fact that the spiritual or internal man, which is a person's spirit and is called his soul, in a similar way has a correspondence with his natural or external man. The correspondence is such that the things belonging to the internal man are spiritual and celestial, but those belonging to the external are natural and bodily, as becomes clear from what has been stated above in 2988, 2989, about looks on the face and movements of the body. Furthermore as to the internal man the human being is a miniature heaven since he has been created in the image of the Lord.
