4781. 'And all his sons rose up' means those who are governed by falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'sons' as truths and in the contrary sense as falsities, that is, those who are governed by truths or by falsities, dealt with in 489, 491, 533, 1147, 2623, 2803, 2813, 3373, 3704. Here those governed by falsities are meant because Jacob's sons or Joseph's brothers represent those who are adherents to faith separated from charity' and so who have annihilated Divine Truth and are as a consequence governed by falsities, as shown above.
