18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time, are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bond-men, and our asses.

390. (Verse 9) And when he had opened the fifth seal. That this signifies prediction still further, is plain from the signification of opening a seal of a book, as denoting to reveal things hidden, and to predict future things (concerning which see above, n. 352, 361, 369, 378).
