10039. It is sin. That this signifies thus purified from evils and falsities, is evident from the signification of “sin,” when by it is meant sacrifice, as being purification from evils and falsities; for in the original tongue by “sin,” where sacrifices are treated of, is meant sacrifice for sin, and by “sacrifice” is signified purification from evils and falsities (n. 9990, 9991). (That in the Word sacrifice for sin is called “sin,” see Leviticus 4:3, 8, 14, 20-21, 24-25, 29, 33, 34; 5:6, 8, 9; 16:9, 25)
4975. And that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand. That this signifies that all things were of the Divine providence, is evident from the signification of “being made to prosper” as being to be provided (of which above, n. 4972). Hence “Jehovah’s making it to prosper in his hand” denotes the Divine providence.
4975a. And Joseph found grace in his eyes. That this signifies that it was accepted, namely, by natural good, which is signified by his “lord,” is evident from the signification of “finding grace in one’s sight,” as being to be accepted. It is said “in the eyes,” because grace is predicated of the understanding, and this is signified by the “eyes” (see n. 2701, 3820, 4526).
