32
Quibus appositis, seorsum Joseph, et seorsum fratribus, Ægyptiis quoque qui vescebantur simul, seorsum (illicitum est enim Ægyptiis comedere cum Hebræis, et profanum putant hujuscemodi convivium)
Genesis 43:32
Arcana Coelestia＃5588
5588. 'We will go down and buy food for you' means that in this case the good of truth will be acquired. This is clear from the meaning of 'buying' as acquiring and making one's own; and from the meaning of 'food' as the good of truth, both of which meanings are dealt with above in 5582.
