11
And the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing-floor of Atad, and they said, This is a grievous mourning of the Egyptians. Therefore the name of it was called Abel-Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Genesis 50:11
Arcana Coelestia # 6569
6569. 'And Joseph said to them, Do not be afraid' means renewal by the internal. This is clear from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal, dealt with above in 6499; and from the meaning of 'do not be afraid' as that they should not be anxious. And because in what now follows Joseph removes their anxiety by comforting them and 'speaking to their heart', 'do not be afraid' here means renewal.
