1 以色列帶著一切所有的,起身到別是巴,就獻祭給他父親以撒的

2 夜間,在異象中對以色列雅各雅各!他:我在這裡。

3 :我是,就是你父親。你埃及去不要害怕,因為我必使你在那裡成為族。

4 我要和你同埃及去,也必定帶你上來;約瑟必給你送終(原文作將按在你的眼睛上)。

5 雅各就從別是巴起行。以色列的兒子們使他們的父親雅各和他們的妻子、兒女都坐在法老雅各送來的車上。

6 他們又帶著迦南所得的牲畜、貨財埃及雅各和他的一切子孫都一同來了

7 雅各把他的兒子、孫子、女兒、孫女,並他的子子孫孫,一同帶到埃及

8 埃及以色列人名字記在下面。雅各和他的兒孫:雅各長子是流便。

26 那與雅各同到埃及的,除了他兒婦之外,凡從他所生的,共有六十六人。

27 還有約瑟在埃及所生的兩個兒子。雅各埃及的共有七十人。

28 雅各打發猶大先去見約瑟,請派人引歌珊去;於是他們歌珊

29 約瑟套車往歌珊去,迎接他父親以色列,及至見了面,就伏在父親的頸項,哭了許久。

30 以色列對約瑟:我既得見你的面,知道你還在,就是我也甘心。

31 約瑟對他的弟兄和他父的全家:我要上去告訴法老,對他:我的弟兄和我父的全家從前在迦南,現今都到我這裡來了

32 他們本是牧的人,以養牲畜為業;他們把羊群牛群和一切所有的都帶來了。

33 法老召你們的時候,問你們:你們以何事為業?

34 你們要:你的僕人,從幼年直到如今,都以養牲畜為業,連我們的祖宗也都以此為業。這樣,你們可以歌珊,因為凡牧的都被埃及人所厭惡。

6044. And the men are shepherds of the flock. That this signifies that they lead to good, is evident from the signification of “shepherds of the flock,” as being those who lead to good (see n. 343, 3795, 5201). For he is a “shepherd” who teaches and leads, and that is the “flock” which is taught and led. But in the internal sense are meant truths which lead to good, for by the sons of Israel, who here are the “men, shepherds of the flock,” are represented spiritual truths (n. 6040). Moreover with those who teach it is truths that lead. That truths which are of faith lead to good which is of charity, was shown above; and the same is evident from the fact that all things both in general and in particular have relation to an end, and look to it, and those which do not look to an end cannot subsist. For the Lord has created nothing whatever except for the sake of an end; in so much that it may be said that the end is the all in all things that have been created; and all things that have been created are in such an order that as the end from the First through the intermediates looks to the last or ultimate, so the end within the last or ultimate has regard to the end in the First. Hence comes the connection of things. In its first origin the end itself is nothing but the Divine good of the Divine love; thus it is the Lord Himself. Wherefore also in the Word He is called the “First and the Last,” the “Alpha and Omega” (Isaiah 41:4; 44:6; 48:12; Revelation 1:8, 11, 17; 2:8; 21:6; 22:13). This being the case, it is necessary that each and all things which pertain to the life with man should have relation to an end and should look to it. He who has any rational ability can see that the memory-knowledges with a man look to truths as their end, and that the truths look to goods, and that the goods look to the Lord as the last and the first end; as the last end when they look at Him from truths, and as the first end when they look at Him from good. Such is the case with the truths of the church that they lead to good, which is signified by the “men being shepherds of the flock,” and by their being “men of cattle,” as now follows.
