8150. 'And there were tertiary commanders over them all' means having been arranged into order under general headings. This is clear from the meaning of 'tertiary commanders' as general headings under which come particular aspects. The reason why 'tertiary commanders' has this meaning is that 'three', which lies behind the term 'tertiary', means something completed and entire, 2788, 4495, 7715, and commanders' means the things that rank first. And these together with the particular aspects constitute general wholes, for every single component of a series is arranged into order under a general heading. This arrangement into order under general headings enables individual aspects to act in unison, have form, and at the same time possess a particular quality. Regarding general headings, that they have particular aspects under them, and specific details under these, see 920, 2384, 3739, 4325 (end), 4329, 4345, 4383, 5208, 5339, 6115, 6146.

5799. 'For as you are, so is Pharaoh' means that he has control over the natural. This is clear from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as the natural in general, dealt with in 5160; and from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal, dealt with previously. The control exercised by the internal over the natural is represented by Joseph's being placed in charge over all the land of Egypt as well as over the whole of Pharaoh's house, Genesis 41:40-41.
