4971. 'And Jehovah was with Joseph' means that the Divine existed within the celestial of the spiritual. This is clear from the representation of 'Joseph' as the celestial of the spiritual from the rational, dealt with above in 4963; and because the Lord is the subject, at this point His Internal Man within His Human, 'Jehovah was with him' means that the Divine existed within it. The Divine existed within His Human because He had been conceived from Jehovah. The Divine does not exist within angels; it is merely present with them, because they are merely forms receiving the Divine coming forth from the Lord.
