5045. 'Into Joseph's hand all the bound who were in the prison-house' means received from Him over all falsities, that is to say, the truth governing in a state of temptations was received from Him. This is clear from the meaning of 'giving into Joseph's hand' as placing under its power and control ('the hand' means power and control, 5008, thus that which is received from Him - for anything done by the use of His power is something done by Him - while 'Joseph' means the Lord in the internal sense, as has often been shown above); and from the meaning of 'the bound in the prison-house' as falsities, dealt with above in 5037, 5038. Thus 'the governor of the prison-house gave into Joseph's hand all the bound who were in the prison-house' means the truth governing in the state of temptations that was received from Him and had power over all falsities, that is, He Himself was the source of the truth by means of which He governed falsities in the state of temptations. Here and in what follows at the end of this present chapter the subject in the internal sense is the Lord and the government executed by Him in a state of temptations. That is, it describes how He overcame, by His own power, the hells which were steeped in evils and falsities, and which were constantly pouring out evils and falsities onto the human race. For details about the Lord overcoming them and bringing them into subjection to Himself by His own power, thereby also glorifying the Human within Him or making it Divine, see 1616, 1749, 1755, 1813, 1904, 1914, 1921, 1935, 2025, 2026, 2083, 2159, 2574, 2786, 2795, 3036, 3381, 4075, 4286, 5005. This is clear from many places in the Word, including the following in John,

I lay down My life, ¹ so that I may receive it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself; I have power to lay it down and I have power to receive it again. John 10:17-18.

The passion of the Cross was the last temptation, by which He fully glorified the Human within Him, that is, made it Divine, as is also evident from many places in the Word, such as John 13:31-32; 17:1, 5; Luke 24:26.

2083. 'And you will call his name Isaac' means the Divine Rational. This is clear from Isaac's representation and also from the meaning of his name in the internal sense.

From Isaac's representation: As stated frequently already, 'Abraham' represents the Lord's Internal Man, 'Isaac' His Rational Man, and 'Jacob' His Natural Man. The Lord's Internal Man was Jehovah Himself. Because the Rational Man was conceived from the influx of the Internal Man into the External Man's affection for knowledge, 1896, 1902, 1910, it originated in the Divine thus joined to the Human. Consequently the first rational represented by 'Ishmael' was human, but it was made Divine by the Lord, and is then represented by 'Isaac'.

From the meaning of his name: He was given the name Isaac from the word for 'laughter', and because laughter in the internal sense means the affection for truth, which belongs to the rational, as shown above in 2072, Isaac accordingly here means the Divine Rational.

[2] From His own power the Lord made Divine everything that was human with Him. Thus He made not only the rational Divine but also the sensory part, interior and exterior, and so the body itself. In this way He united the Human to the Divine. It has been shown already that not only the rational, but also the sensory part, and so the whole body also was made Divine and Jehovah. This may also become clear to anyone from the fact that He alone has risen as to the body from the dead, and sits at the right hand of the Divine Power both with His entire Divine and with His entire Human. 'Sitting at the right hand of Divine power' means having all power in heaven and on earth.
