6566. 'And Joseph wept as they spoke to him' means reception brought about by love. This is clear from the meaning of 'weeping' as a sign indicative both of sadness and of love, dealt with in 3801, 5480, 5873, 5927, 5930; from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal celestial, dealt with in 5805, 5826, 5827, 5869, 5877, 6177, 6224; and from the meaning of 'speaking' as influx and consequent reception, dealt with in 5797, for the influx comes from the internal celestial, which is 'Joseph', and the reception is by the truths in the natural, which are 'his brothers'. From all this it is evident that 'Joseph wept as they spoke to him' means reception brought about by love.
