야곱이 또 이르되 `내가 들은즉 저 애굽에 곡식이 있다 하니 너희는 그리로 가서 거기서 우리를 위하여 사오라 그리하면 우리가 살고 죽지 아니하리라 !' 하매
Arcana Coelestia #5540
5540. 'All these things will be upon me' means that, when this is so, that which constitutes the Church will have been destroyed. This is clear from the representation of Jacob, who says this about himself, as the Church, dealt with in 5536. When neither the internal represented by 'Joseph' nor faith in the will represented by 'Simeon' exist within the Church, and if the intermediary, represented by 'Benjamin', that effects the joining together is taken away, that which constitutes the Church has been destroyed. These are the factors meant by 'all these things will be upon me'.
