6080. 'And now let your servants, we beg you, dwell in the land of Goshen' means so that they may live in the middle of them. This is clear from the meaning of 'dwelling' as living, dealt with in 1293, 3384, 3613, 4451, 6051; and from the meaning of 'the land of Goshen' as the middle or inmost part of the natural, dealt with in 5910, 6028, 6031, 6068.
