5885. 'And he said, I am Joseph your brother' means a revelation made by means of influx. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying, I am Joseph your brother' as a revelation, as above in 5878. Influx is, it follows, the means by which that revelation is made because the internal does not act on the external in any other way, especially now since a more internal communication has been established, 5883. The revelation made by means of influx is, in the case of good, a discernment of good produced by an affection for truth, which is charity; but in the case of truth it is an acknowledgement of truth, which is faith.

9092. 'They shall sell the living ox' means that the affection with the one which has injured the affection with the other shall be alienated. This is clear from the meaning of 'selling' as alienating, dealt with in 4098, 4752, 4758, 5886; and from the meaning of 'the living ox' as the affection with the one truth which has injured the affection with the other truth, dealt with above in 9090.
