1 ελθων δε ιωσηφ απηγγειλεν τω φαραω λεγων ο πατηρ μου και οι αδελφοι μου και τα κτηνη και οι βοες αυτων και παντα τα αυτων ηλθον εκ γης χανααν και ιδου εισιν εν γη γεσεμ

2 απο δε των αδελφων αυτου παρελαβεν πεντε ανδρας και εστησεν αυτους εναντιον φαραω

3 και ειπεν φαραω τοις αδελφοις ιωσηφ τι το εργον υμων οι δε ειπαν τω φαραω ποιμενες προβατων οι παιδες σου και ημεις και οι πατερες ημων

4 ειπαν δε τω φαραω παροικειν εν τη γη ηκαμεν ου γαρ εστιν νομη τοις κτηνεσιν των παιδων σου ενισχυσεν γαρ ο λιμος εν γη χανααν νυν ουν κατοικησομεν οι παιδες σου εν γη γεσεμ

5 ειπεν δε φαραω τω ιωσφη κατοικειτωσαν εν γη γεσεμ ει δε επιστη οτι εισιν εν αυτοις ανδρες δυνατοι καταστησον αυτους αρχοντας των εμων κτηνων ηλθον δε εις αιγυπτον προς ιωσηφ ιακωβ και οι υιοι αυτου και ηκουσεν φαραω βασιλευς αιγυπτου και ειπεν φαραω προς ιωσηφ λεγων ο πατηρ σου και οι αδελφοι σου ηκασι προς σε

6 ιδου η γη αιγυπτου εναντιον σου εστιν εν τη βελτιστη γη κατοικισον τον πατερα σου και τους αδελφους σου

7 εισηγαγεν δε ιωσηφ ιακωβ τον πατερα αυτου και εστησεν αυτον εναντιον φαραω και ευλογησεν ιακωβ τον φαραω

8 ειπεν δε φαραω τω ιακωβ ποσα ετη ημερων της ζωης σου

9 και ειπεν ιακωβ τω φαραω αι ημεραι των ετων της ζωης μου ας παροικω εκατον τριακοντα ετη μικραι και πονηραι γεγονασιν αι ημεραι των ετων της ζωης μου ουκ αφικοντο εις τας ημερας των ετων της ζωης των πατερων μου ας ημερας παρωκησαν

10 και ευλογησας ιακωβ τον φαραω εξηλθεν απ' αυτου

11 και κατωκισεν ιωσηφ τον πατερα και τους αδελφους αυτου και εδωκεν αυτοις κατασχεσιν εν γη αιγυπτου εν τη βελτιστη γη εν γη ραμεσση καθα προσεταξεν φαραω

12 και εσιτομετρει ιωσηφ τω πατρι και τοις αδελφοις αυτου και παντι τω οικω του πατρος αυτου σιτον κατα σωμα

13 σιτος δε ουκ ην εν παση τη γη ενισχυσεν γαρ ο λιμος σφοδρα εξελιπεν δε η γη αιγυπτου και η γη χανααν απο του λιμου

14 συνηγαγεν δε ιωσηφ παν το αργυριον το ευρεθεν εν γη αιγυπτου και εν γη χανααν του σιτου ου ηγοραζον και εσιτομετρει αυτοις και εισηνεγκεν ιωσηφ παν το αργυριον εις τον οικον φαραω

15 και εξελιπεν παν το αργυριον εκ γης αιγυπτου και εκ γης χανααν ηλθον δε παντες οι αιγυπτιοι προς ιωσηφ λεγοντες δος ημιν αρτους και ινα τι αποθνησκομεν εναντιον σου εκλελοιπεν γαρ το αργυριον ημων

16 ειπεν δε αυτοις ιωσηφ φερετε τα κτηνη υμων και δωσω υμιν αρτους αντι των κτηνων υμων ει εκλελοιπεν το αργυριον

17 ηγαγον δε τα κτηνη προς ιωσηφ και εδωκεν αυτοις ιωσηφ αρτους αντι των ιππων και αντι των προβατων και αντι των βοων και αντι των ονων και εξεθρεψεν αυτους εν αρτοις αντι παντων των κτηνων αυτων εν τω ενιαυτω εκεινω

18 εξηλθεν δε το ετος εκεινο και ηλθον προς αυτον εν τω ετει τω δευτερω και ειπαν αυτω μηποτε εκτριβωμεν απο του κυριου ημων ει γαρ εκλελοιπεν το αργυριον και τα υπαρχοντα και τα κτηνη προς σε τον κυριον και ουχ υπολειπεται ημιν εναντιον του κυριου ημων αλλ' η το ιδιον σωμα και η γη ημων

19 ινα ουν μη αποθανωμεν εναντιον σου και η γη ερημωθη κτησαι ημας και την γην ημων αντι αρτων και εσομεθα ημεις και η γη ημων παιδες φαραω δος σπερμα ινα σπειρωμεν και ζωμεν και μη αποθανωμεν και η γη ουκ ερημωθησεται

20 και εκτησατο ιωσηφ πασαν την γην των αιγυπτιων τω φαραω απεδοντο γαρ οι αιγυπτιοι την γην αυτων τω φαραω επεκρατησεν γαρ αυτων ο λιμος και εγενετο η γη φαραω

21 και τον λαον κατεδουλωσατο αυτω εις παιδας απ' ακρων οριων αιγυπτου εως των ακρων

22 χωρις της γης των ιερεων μονον ουκ εκτησατο ταυτην ιωσηφ εν δοσει γαρ εδωκεν δομα τοις ιερευσιν φαραω και ησθιον την δοσιν ην εδωκεν αυτοις φαραω δια τουτο ουκ απεδοντο την γην αυτων

23 ειπεν δε ιωσηφ πασι τοις αιγυπτιοις ιδου κεκτημαι υμας και την γην υμων σημερον τω φαραω λαβετε εαυτοις σπερμα και σπειρατε την γην

24 και εσται τα γενηματα αυτης δωσετε το πεμπτον μερος τω φαραω τα δε τεσσαρα μερη εσται υμιν αυτοις εις σπερμα τη γη και εις βρωσιν υμιν και πασιν τοις εν τοις οικοις υμων

25 και ειπαν σεσωκας ημας ευρομεν χαριν εναντιον του κυριου ημων και εσομεθα παιδες φαραω

26 και εθετο αυτοις ιωσηφ εις προσταγμα εως της ημερας ταυτης επι γην αιγυπτου τω φαραω αποπεμπτουν χωρις της γης των ιερεων μονον ουκ ην τω φαραω

27 κατωκησεν δε ισραηλ εν γη αιγυπτω επι της γης γεσεμ και εκληρονομησαν επ' αυτης και ηυξηθησαν και επληθυνθησαν σφοδρα

28 επεζησεν δε ιακωβ εν γη αιγυπτω δεκα επτα ετη εγενοντο δε αι ημεραι ιακωβ ενιαυτων της ζωης αυτου εκατον τεσσαρακοντα επτα ετη

29 ηγγισαν δε αι ημεραι ισραηλ του αποθανειν και εκαλεσεν τον υιον αυτου ιωσηφ και ειπεν αυτω ει ευρηκα χαριν εναντιον σου υποθες την χειρα σου υπο τον μηρον μου και ποιησεις επ' εμε ελεημοσυνην και αληθειαν του μη με θαψαι εν αιγυπτω

30 αλλα κοιμηθησομαι μετα των πατερων μου και αρεις με εξ αιγυπτου και θαψεις με εν τω ταφω αυτων ο δε ειπεν εγω ποιησω κατα το ρημα σου

31 ειπεν δε ομοσον μοι και ωμοσεν αυτω και προσεκυνησεν ισραηλ επι το ακρον της ραβδου αυτου

6019. 'Jacob and all his seed with him' means of natural truth and of all matters of faith belonging to that truth; that is, the introduction of them into the Church's factual knowledge. This is clear from the representation of 'Jacob' as natural truth, dealt with in 3305, 3509, 3525, 3546, 3599, 3775, 4009, 4234, 4520, 4538; and from the meaning of 'seed' as faith springing from charity, dealt with in 255, 1025, 1447, 1610, 1940, 2848, 3310, so that 'all his seed with him' means all matters of faith belonging to natural truth.

3576. 'And he blessed him' means conjunction thereby. This is clear from the meaning of 'being blessed' as conjunction, dealt with in 3504, 3514, 3530, 3565. From these details which refer to Esau and Jacob it becomes clear that the good of the rational joined itself inmostly to the good of the natural, and then through the good of the natural to the truth there. For 'Isaac' represents the rational as regards good, 'Rebekah' the rational as regards truth, while 'Esau' represents the good of the natural and 'Jacob' the truth of the natural. The idea that the rational as regards good, which is 'Isaac', joined itself inmostly to the good of the natural, which is 'Esau', but not to the truth of the natural, which is 'Jacob', except indirectly, is evident from the consideration that Isaac had Esau in mind when pronouncing the blessing on Jacob. At that time he was not thinking of Jacob but of Esau. When anyone pronounces a blessing he is blessing the person of whom he is thinking, not someone of whom he is not thinking. All blessing comes forth from something interior, for though pronounced with the lips it receives its life from the will and the thought of the person pronouncing it. It belongs essentially therefore to the individual to whom he wishes to impart it and of whom he is thinking. If anyone intercepts it and so makes it his own it is like something stolen which ought to be restored to the other person. The fact that Isaac, when pronouncing the blessing, was thinking of Esau and not of Jacob becomes clear from every single detail that goes before this - from verses 18-19, where Isaac said to Jacob,

Who are you, my son? And Jacob said to his father, I am Esau your firstborn.

Then from verses 21-23,

Isaac said to Jacob, Come near now, and I will feel you, my son, whether you are my son Esau, or not.

And after feeling him he said, The voice is Jacob's voice, and the hands Esau's hands; and he did not recognize him.

Also from verse 24,

And he said. Are you my very son Esau? And he said, I am.

And at length, when kissing him,

He smelled the odour of his clothes.

That is to say, he smelled Esau's clothes, at which point he blessed him and said,

See, the odour of my son.

From all this it is clear that by the son whom he blessed he meant none other than Esau. This also was why when he heard from Esau that it had been Jacob,

Isaac trembled very greatly. Verse 33.

And he said, Your brother came in deceitfully. Verse 35.

The reason why Jacob retained the blessing however, according to what is said in verses 33-37, was that truth represented by 'Jacob' would from the point of view of time apparently have dominion, as shown frequently above.

[2] But once the time of reformation and regeneration is completed good itself which has been Lying hidden in the inmost parts and from there has been disposing every single thing which seemed to be a matter of truth, that is, which truth had ascribed to itself, comes to the fore and openly has dominion. And this is what Isaac's words addressed to Esau mean,

By your sword you will live, and you will serve your brother. And it will be when you have dominion over him, that you will break his yoke from above your neck, Verse 40.

The internal sense of these words is that all the time truth is joined to good, good appears to be in the lower position but will eventually be in the higher. At this point there will be a joining together of the rational with the good of the natural, and through the good of the natural with the truth. Truth will thus become the truth of good. In this case 'Esau' will consequently represent the good itself of the natural and 'Jacob' the truth of the natural, both joined to the rational. Accordingly in the highest sense they will represent the Lord's Divine Natural - 'Esau' as regards the Divine Good there and 'Jacob' as regards the Divine Truth.
