171. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 48

1-8 That partition continued, (12)

9-20 for those who are in the third heaven, who are the priests and Levites. (12)

21-22 The Lord is in the midst of them. (12)

23-29 The further partition or inheritance continued. (12)

30-34 The knowledges [cognitiones] of that church, which are introductory truths. (12)

35 This church is the Lord's church. (12)

5974. 'Enough; Joseph my son is still alive' means joy that the internal had not perished. This is clear from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal celestial, and from the meaning of 'being alive' as not having perished or been cast away, as above in 5967. That joy is meant is self-evident.
