5318. And put it upon Joseph’s hand. That this signifies that the natural yielded all the power to the celestial of the spiritual, is evident from the signification of “putting a ring upon another’s hand,” as being a confirmation that one yields to him the power that he himself has (see n. 5317); and from the representation of Joseph, as being the celestial of the spiritual, as often shown above.
