27 那隨上來的隻又乾瘦又醜陋的母年,那個虛空、被東風吹焦的穗子也是年,都是個荒年。

5333. 'And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt' means when both parts of the natural were His. This is clear from the meaning of 'going out' here as flowing into, and from the meaning of 'the land of Egypt' as the natural mind, often dealt with already, and so both parts of the natural. Since 'going out' means flowing into, and 'the land of Egypt' means both parts of the natural, these words and the ones that come just before mean the essential nature of the celestial of the spiritual, and the essential nature of the marriage of good to truth, and of truth to good, when the celestial of the spiritual flowed in and made both parts of the natural its own. For what is meant by making the natural its own, see just above in 5326.
