5908. 'God has established me as lord for all Egypt' means that it sets in order every single thing in the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'being established as lord' as setting in order, as above in 5903, 5904; and from the meaning of 'all Egypt' as factual knowledge in the natural, and so every single thing there. For factual knowledge is what the natural consists of; and 'Egypt', as shown many times already, means factual knowledge.
5903. 'And as lord for all his house' means that everything in the natural was dependent on him. This is clear from the meaning of 'all Pharaoh's house' as everything in the natural. The dependence on him of everything there is meant by the statement that he was established as lord over that house, 'lord' too being used in the Word to refer to good.
