7696. 'And he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you' means an admission that he had disobeyed the Divine and the truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'sinning' as acting contrary to Divine order, dealt with in 5076, and turning away and separating oneself from it, thus from goodness and truth, 5229, 5474, 5841, 7589. As an extension of this, 'sinning' also means disobeying the Divine and the truth, for one who disobeys turns himself away. The Divine is what 'Jehovah your God' is used to mean, and the truth what Moses and Aaron are used to mean, 7695.

5474. 'Do not sin against the boy' means lest they become separated - the external from the internal. This is clear from the meaning of 'sinning' as a separation, dealt with in 5229, for all sin leads to separation; and from the representation of Joseph, to whom 'the boy' refers here, as the internal, as above in 5469.
