In Genesis 41:50, 'Manasseh' symbolizes the area of the will belonging to the new natural, while 'Ephraim' means the area of understanding belonging to it. It follows that 'Manasseh' refers to the good present in the new natural, since good exists as an attribute of the will, and 'Ephraim' the truth present there, since truth exists as an attribute of the understanding.
