23 καὶ οὐκ εἶδεν οὐδεὶς τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ οὐκ ἐξανέστη οὐδεὶς ἐκ τῆς κοίτης αὐτοῦ τρεῖς ἡμέρας πᾶσι δὲ τοῖς υἱοῖς ισραηλ ἦν φῶς ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς κατεγίνοντο

7661. We will go with our boys, and with our old men. That this signifies the simple and the wise, is evident from the signification of “boys,” when joined to “old men,” as being the simple, for “old men” denote the wise (see n. 3183, 6524, 6890).
