Genesis 44:18

Studie

       

18 Siis astus Juuda tema juurde ja ütles: 'Mu isand, luba ometi oma sulast rääkida üks sõna mu isanda kõrva ees ja su viha ärgu süttigu põlema oma sulase vastu, sest sina oled nagu vaarao ise!

5939. 'Do this: Load your animals' means that they were to fill every truth with good. This is clear from the meaning of 'loading animals' as infilling truths; and from the meaning of 'the grain' with which the animals were to be loaded as the good of truth, dealt with in 5295, 5410. The reason 'the animals' here are truths is that they were asses, Genesis 42:26, 17; 43:18, 24; 44:3, by which factual knowledge is meant, 5741. And since factual knowledge is meant by 'asses', and at this point the joining to internal good has been effected through the intermediary, truths contained in factual knowledge is meant, which is why 'animals is used here instead of asses.
