5529. 'And so it was, as they were emptying their sacks' means the use performed by truths in the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'emptying' - emptying out the corn they had brought back from Egypt - as the use performed by truths (for 'corn' means truth, 5276, 5280, 5292, 5402); and from the meaning of 'sacks' as receptacles within the natural, dealt with in 5489, 5494, and so the natural itself. Regarding the receptacles in the natural, see below in 5531.
