This is clear from the meaning of 'the neck' as an influx, communication, and joining together, dealt with in 3542, 3695, 3725 (strictly speaking it is a joining together of celestial things and spiritual ones, 5320, 5328, thus a joining of the internal celestial, which is 'Joseph', to the spiritual of the celestial, which is 'Benjamin'; consequently 'falling on the neck' means joining very closely to oneself, which is therefore an inmost joining together); and from the representation of 'Benjamin' as the intermediary, dealt with in 5411, 5413, 5443, 5679, 5686, 5688, 5689.
