'Hasten,' in reference to Joseph, as mentioned in Genesis 43:30, signifies what bursts forth from the inmost. This is because his compassions were moved, which signifies mercy from love. When this bursts forth, it bursts forth from the inmost, and this at the first striking of the eye, or at the first moment of thought, therefore, 'hastening,' signifies nothing but 'from the inmost.' 'To hasten' or 'hastiness' in the internal sense, does not denote what is quick, but what is certain, and also what is full, thus every event. For 'haste' involves time, and in the spiritual world there is not time, but instead of time there is state, thus the haste of time has relation to such a quality of state that corresponds, and the quality of the state which corresponds is that there are several things which are efficient together, from which results a certain and full event.
