Study

       

18 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in Egypt, and Jehovah thy God doth ransom thee from thence; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.

Remember

  

'Remembering' denotes conjunction because the remembrance of anyone in the other life joins them together, because as soon as any spirit remembers another, he is brought so close that they can talk together. This is how angels and spirits can meet with anyone they have known, and anyone they have heard of, can see them present, and talk with them, when the Lord allows them 'to remember' them.

In Genesis 41:9, this signifies conjunction.
