6288. 'And it was wrong in his eyes' means displeasure. This is clear without explanation. The reason Joseph was displeased was that he represents the internal celestial, which is above the spiritual good that 'Israel' represents. What is higher can discern the nature of anything done in what is lower, and so can also discern whether or not any thought there is the truth. For what is higher can see whatever exists in lower parts because it does so in the light of heaven. Thus it was that the internal celestial, which is 'Joseph', could see that spiritual good from the natural, which is 'Israel', was making a mistake; therefore it displeased him.
