27 Und einer öffnete seinen Sack, um seinem Esel in der Herberge Futter zu geben; und er sah sein Geld, und siehe, es war oben in seinem Sacke.

5499. My silver is restored. That this signifies that there was no aid from them, is evident from the signification of “restoring silver,” as being without any ability of theirs, or what is the same thing, that there was no aid from them (of which above, n. 5488, 5496).

5496. And he saw his silver. That this signifies perception that it was without any ability of their own, is evident from the signification of “seeing,” as being to understand and perceive (see n. 2150, 2325, 2807, 3764, 3863, 4403-4421, 4567, 4723, 5400); and from the signification of the “silver being restored,” as denoting without any power of theirs (n. 5488).
