3029. 'The servant said to him' means the Lord's perception concerning the natural man. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as perceiving, dealt with in 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2506, 2515, 2552, and from the meaning of 'the servant' here as the natural man, dealt with above in 3019, 3020. All that takes place in the natural man, and what the natural man is like, is perceived in the rational, for that in man which is lower is perceived from that which is higher, see 2654. Consequently 'the servant said to him' means the Lord's perception concerning the natural man.
