28 und sprach zu seinen Brüdern: Mein Geld ist mir wieder geworden; siehe, in meinem Sack ist es. Da entfiel ihnen ihr Herz, und sie erschraken untereinander und sprachen: Warum hat uns Gott das getan?

5481. And he returned to them, and spoke to them. That this signifies influx, is evident from the signification of “returning to them and speaking to them” after he had turned about from them, as being influx; for the celestial of the spiritual or truth from the Divine, represented by Joseph, flows into the truths that are in the natural. This is expressed in the sense of the letter by “returning to them and speaking to them.” (That “speaking” also denotes to flow in, may be seen above, n. 2951)
