5082. 'With the chief of the cupbearers and with the chief of the bakers' means in general from the sensory powers subordinate to the understanding part and to the will part. This is clear from the meaning of 'the cupbearer' as the senses subordinate and subject to the understanding, dealt with above in 5077; from the meaning of 'the baker' as the senses subordinate and subject to the will, also dealt with above, in 5078; and from the meaning of 'the chief (or prince)' as that which is first and foremost, dealt with in 1482, 2089, 5044, in this case in general or commonly so throughout; for that which is first and foremost is also common throughout since it reigns throughout the rest of the whole. In relation to particular details, things that are first and foremost exist as what is general and overall, making everything one and removing any signs of incongruity.
