1 At nangyari, sa katapusan ng dalawang taong ganap, na si Faraon ay nanaginip: at, narito, na siya'y nakatayo sa tabi ng ilog.

2 At, narito may nagsiahon sa ilog na pitong bakang magagandang anyo at matatabang laman; at nanginain sa talahiban.

3 At, narito, na ibang pitong baka, na nagsiahon sa ilog na nasa likuran nila, mga pangit na anyo, at payat; at nagsihinto roon sa tabi ng mga unang baka, sa tabi ng ilog.

4 At ang pitong bakang magagandang anyo at matataba, ay nilamon ng mga bakang pangit ang anyo at payat. Sa gayo'y nagising si Faraon.

5 At siya'y natulog at nanaginip na bilang ikalawa; at, narito may sumupling na pitong uhay na mabibintog at mabubuti, na may isa lamang tangkay.

6 At, narito, may pitong uhay na payat at tinutuyo ng hanging silanganan, na nagsitubong kasunod ng mga yaon.

7 At nilamon ng mga uhay na payat ang pitong uhay na mabibintog at malulusog. At nagising si Faraon, at, narito, isang panaginip.

8 At nangyari, sa kinaumagahan, na ang kaniyang diwa ay nagulumihanan at siya'y nagsugo at kaniyang ipinatawag ang lahat ng mago sa Egipto, at ang lahat ng pantas doon: at isinaysay ni Faraon sa kanila ang kaniyang panaginip: datapuwa't walang makapagpaliwanag kay Faraon.

9 Nang magkagayo'y nagsalita ang puno ng mga katiwala kay Faraon, na sinasabi, Naaalaala ko sa araw na ito ang aking mga sala:

10 Nguni't si Faraon laban sa kaniyang mga alila, at ibinilanggo ako sa bahay ng kapitan ng bantay, ako at ang puno ng mga magtitinapay.

11 At nanaginip kami ng panaginip sa isang gabi, ako at siya: kami ay kapuwa nanaginip ayon sa kapaliwanagan ng panaginip ng isa't isa sa amin.

12 At nandoong kasama namin ang isang binata, isang Hebreo, na alipin ng kapitan ng bantay; at siya naming pinagsaysayan, at kaniyang ipinaliwanag sa amin ang aming panaginip; ipinaliwanag niya ayon sa panaginip ng bawat isa sa amin.

13 At nangyari, na kung paano ang kaniyang pagkapaliwanag sa amin, ay nagkagayon; ako'y pinabalik sa aking katungkulan, at ipinabitin ang isa.

14 Nang magkagayo'y nagsugo si Faraon at ipinatawag si Jose, at siya'y inilabas na madalian sa bilangguan: siya'y nagahit at nagbihis ng suot, at naparoon kay Faraon.

15 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Ako'y nanaginip ng isang panaginip, at walang makapagpaliwanag: at nabalitaan kita, na pagkarinig mo ng isang panaginip ay naipaliwanag mo.

16 At sumagot si Jose kay Faraon, na sinasabi, Wala sa akin; Dios ang magbibigay ng sagot sa kapayapaan kay Faraon.

17 At sinalita ni Faraon kay Jose, Sa aking panaginip ay narito, nakatayo ako sa tabi ng ilog:

18 At, narito, may nagsiahon sa ilog na pitong bakang matatabang laman at magagandang anyo, at nanginain sa talahiban:

19 At, narito, may ibang pitong baka na nagsiahon sa likuran nila, mga payat, at napakapangit ang anyo, at payat na kailan ma'y hindi ako nakakita sa buong lupain ng Egipto ng ibang kawangis ng mga yaon sa kapangitan.

20 At kinain ng mga bakang payat at pangit, ang pitong nauunang bakang matataba:

21 At nang kanilang makain, ay hindi man lamang maalaman na sila'y kanilang nakain; kundi ang kanilang anyo ay pangit ding gaya ng una. Sa gayo'y nagising ako.

22 At nakakita ako sa aking panaginip, at, narito, pitong uhay ay tumataas sa isang tangkay, mapipintog at mabubuti.

23 At, narito, may pitong uhay na lanta, mga pipi at tinutuyo ng hanging silanganan na nagsitaas na kasunod ng mga yaon:

24 At nilamon ng mga uhay na lanta ang pitong uhay na mabubuti: at aking isinaysay sa mga mago: datapuwa't walang makapagpahayag niyaon sa akin.

25 At sinabi ni Jose kay Faraon, Ang panaginip ni Faraon ay iisa; ang gagawin ng Dios ay ipinahayag kay Faraon:

26 Ang pitong bakang mabubuti ay pitong taon; at ang pitong uhay na mabubuti ay pitong taon; ang panaginip ay iisa.

27 At ang pitong bakang payat at mga pangit, na nagsiahong kasunod ng mga yaon ay pitong taon, at gayon din ang pitong uhay na tuyo, na pinapaspas ng hanging silanganan; kapuwa magiging pitong taong kagutom.

28 Iyan ang bagay na sinalita ko kay Faraon: ang gagawin ng Dios, ipinaalam kay Faraon.

29 Narito, dumarating ang pitong taong may malaking kasaganaan sa buong lupain ng Egipto;

30 At may dadating, pagkatapos ng mga iyan, na pitong taong kagutom; at malilimutan iyang buong kasaganaan sa lupain ng Egipto; at pupuksain ng kagutom ang lupain;

31 At ang kasaganaan ay hindi malalaman sa lupain, dahil sa kagutom na sumusunod; sapagka't magiging napakahigpit.

32 At kaya't pinagibayo ang panaginip kay Faraon na makalawa, ay sapagka't bagay na itinatag ng Dios, at papangyayarihing madali ng Dios.

33 Ngayon nga'y humanap si Faraon ng isang taong matalino at pantas, at ilagay sa lupain ng Egipto.

34 Gawing ganito ni Faraon, at maglagay ng mga tagapamahala sa lupain, na paglimahing bahagi ang lupain ng Egipto sa loob ng pitong taon ng kasaganaan.

35 At kanilang tipunin ang lahat ng pagkain nitong mabubuting taon na dumarating, at magkamalig ng trigo sa kapangyarihan ng kamay ni Faraon, na pinakapagkain sa mga bayan at ingatan.

36 At ang pagkain ay kamaligin na itaan sa lupain sa pitong taong kagutom na mangyayari sa lupain ng Egipto; upang huwag mapuksa ang lupain sa kagutom.

37 At ang bagay ay minabuti ng mga mata ni Faraon, at ng mga mata ng kaniyang mga lingkod.

38 At sinabi ni Faraon sa kaniyang mga lingkod, Makakasumpong kaya tayo ng isang gaya nito, na taong kinakasihan ng espiritu ng Dios?

39 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Yamang ipinabatid sa iyo ng Dios: ang lahat ng ito, ay walang matalino o pantas na gaya mo:

40 Ikaw ay magpupuno sa aking bahay, at ayon sa iyong salita ay pamamahalaan mo ang aking buong bayan: sa luklukang hari lamang magiging mataas ako sa iyo.

41 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Tingnan mo, ikaw ay inilagay ko sa buong lupain ng Egipto.

42 At inalis ni Faraon sa kamay niya ang kaniyang tandang singsing at inilagay sa kamay ni Jose, at siya'y sinuutan ng magandang lino at nilagyan siya ng isang kuwintas na ginto sa palibot ng kaniyang leeg;

43 At siya'y pinasakay niya sa ikalawang karro na tinatangkilik ni Faraon at isinisigaw sa unahan niya. Lumuhod kayo: at inihalal siya na puno sa buong lupain ng Egipto.

44 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Ako'y si Faraon, at kung wala ka ay hindi magtataas ang sinomang tao ng kaniyang kamay o ng kaniyang paa sa buong lupain ng Egipto.

45 At pinanganlan ni Faraon si Jose na Zaphnath-paanea, at ibinigay na asawa sa kaniya si Asenath, na anak ni Potiphera, na saserdote sa On. At lumabas si Jose, sa lupain ng Egipto.

46 At si Jose ay may tatlong pung taon nang tumayo sa harap ni Faraon na hari sa Egipto. At si Jose ay umalis sa harap ni Faraon, at nilibot ang buong lupain ng Egipto.

47 At sa pitong taong sagana ay nagdulot ang lupa ng sagana.

48 At tinipon ni Jose ang lahat na pagkain sa pitong taon na tinamo sa lupain ng Egipto: at inimbak ang nangasabing pagkain sa mga bayan; na ang pagkain sa bukid na nasa palibot ng bawa't bayan ay inimbak sa bawa't kinauukulan ding bayan.

49 At si Jose ay nagkamalig ng trigo na parang buhangin sa dagat, na napakarami hanggang sa hindi nabilang; sapagka't walang bilang.

50 At bago dumating ang taong kagutom ay ipinanganak kay Jose ang dalawang lalake, na ipinanganak sa kaniya ni Asenath na anak ni Potiphera, na saserdote sa On.

51 At tinawag ni Jose ang pangalan ng panganay na Manases, sapagka't aniya'y, Ipinalimot ng Dios sa akin ang lahat ng aking kapagalan at ang buong bahay ng aking ama.

52 At ang ipinangalan sa ikalawa ay Ephraim: Sapagka't ako'y pinalago ng Dios sa lupain ng aking kadalamhatian.

53 At ang pitong taon ng kasaganaan na nagkaroon sa lupain ng Egipto ay natapos.

54 At ang pitong taon ng kagutom ay nagpasimulang dumating, ayon sa sinabi ni Jose: at nagkagutom sa lahat ng lupain; datapuwa't sa buong lupain ng Egipto ay may tinapay.

55 At nang ang buong lupain ng Egipto ay magutom, ay dumaing ng tinapay ang bayan kay Faraon: at sinabi ni Faraon sa lahat ng mga Egipcio, Pumaroon kayo kay Jose; ang kaniyang sabihin sa inyo ay inyong gawin.

56 At ang kagutom ay nasa ibabaw ng buong lupa: at binuksan ni Jose ang lahat ng kamalig at nagbili sa mga Egipcio; at lumala ang kagutom sa lupain ng Egipto.

57 At lahat ng mga taga ibang lupain ay nagsiparoon kay Jose upang magsibili ng trigo; sapagka't lumala ang kagutom sa buong lupa.

5335. 'And Joseph was a son of thirty years' means a state when the quantity of remnants was complete. This is clear from the meaning of 'thirty' as a completed number of remnants, dealt with below, and from the meaning of 'years' as states, dealt with in 482, 487, 488, 493, 893. In the Word the number thirty can mean some existence of conflict, or else it can mean a completed number of remnants. The reason why that number has this twofold meaning is that it is arrived at by multiplying five and six, or else by multiplying three and ten. When it is the product of five times six it means some existence of conflict, 2276, because 'five' means some, 649, 4638, 5291, and 'six' conflict, 720, 737, 900, 1709. But when thirty is the product of three times ten it means a completed number of remnants, because 'three' means that which is complete, 2788, 4495, and 'ten' means remnants, 576, 1906, 2284. A composite number implies much the same as the simple ones of which it is the product, 5291. Remnants are the truths joined to good which have been stored away by the Lord in a person's interior parts, see 468, 530, 560, 561, 576, 660, 1050, 1738, 1906, 2284, 5135.

[2] A completed number of remnants is likewise meant by 'thirty' - as it is also by 'sixty', and by 'a hundred' too - in Mark,

The seed which fell into good ground yielded fruit growing up and increasing. One bore thirty-fold, and another sixty, and another a hundred. Mark 4:8, 10.

Each of these numbers, being a multiple of ten, means a completed number of remnants. Also, because no one can be regenerated - that is, permitted to enter into spiritual temptations, by means of which regeneration is effected - until he has received a completed number of remnants, it was therefore laid down that no Levite should carry out any work in the tent of meeting until he was fully thirty years old. Their work or function is also called 'military service', being referred to in Moses as follows,

Take a census of the sons of Kohath from the midst of the sons of Levi - from sons thirty years of age and over, up to sons fifty years of age, everyone coming to perform military service, to do the work in the tent of meeting. Numbers 4:2-3.

Much the same is said regarding the sons of Gershon, and much the same regarding the sons of Merari, in verses 22, 23, 29, 30, and then in verses 35, 39, 43. Of that same chapter in Moses. And something similar is implied where it says that David began to reign when he was a son thirty years of age, 2 Samuel 5:4.

[3] From all this one may now see why the Lord did not make Himself known until He was thirty years of age, Luke 3:23. At that age a completed number of remnants existed with Him, though these remnants which the Lord possessed were ones that He Himself had acquired for Himself. They were also Divine ones and the means by which He united His Human Essence to His Divine Essence and made that Human Essence Divine, 1906. In Him therefore lies the reason why 'thirty years' means a state when the quantity of remnants is complete and why the priests the Levites began to perform their specific functions when they were thirty years old. And because he was to represent the Lord's kingship, David did not begin to reign until he was that same age. For every representative is derived from the Lord, and therefore every representative has reference to Him.

Arcana Coelestia#1906

1906. 'After Abram had been dwelling ten years in the land of Canaan' means the remnants of good and of truth deriving from that good which the Lord acquired to Himself and by means of which this rational was conceived. This is clear from the meaning of 'ten' as remnants, dealt with already in 576. What remnants are has been stated and shown in 468, 530, 560, 561, 660, 661, 798, 1050; that is to say, they are all the states of affection for good and truth conferred by the Lord on a person from earliest childhood right through to life's end. These states are stored away within him for the use of his life after death, for in the next life all the states of his life return one after another and at that time they undergo modification through the states of good and truth which the Lord has conferred on him. The more remnants he acquires therefore during his lifetime, or the more good and truth he acquires, the happier and more beautiful the rest of his states seem to be when they actually return. The truth of this may become clear to anyone if he gives the matter careful consideration. At birth no one of himself possesses any good at all, but is wholly defiled with hereditary evil. Everything good flows in, such as his love for parents, nursemaids, and playmates, this influx being from innocence. These are the gifts which flow in from the Lord through the heaven of innocence and peace, which is the inmost heaven, and this is the manner in which they are imparted to him during early childhood.

[2] Later on, when he grows up, this good, innocent, and peaceful state of early childhood departs from him little by little; and insofar as he is introduced into the world, he enters into its pleasures and delights, and so into evils, and the heavenly things or the goods of early childhood start to be dispersed. Yet they still remain, it being by means of these that the states are moderated which a person takes to himself and acquires later on. Without them he cannot possibly be truly human, for states in which evil desires or any evils occur, if not moderated by means of states in which the affection for good is present, would be more dreadful than those of any animal. Those states of good are what are called remnants, which are conferred by the Lord and implanted in a person's natural disposition, this being done when the person is not aware of it.

[3] In later life he has further new states conferred on him; but these are not so much states of good as of truth, for as he grows up he has truths bestowed on him, and these in a similar way are stored away within his interior man. By means of these remnants, which are those of truth, and which have been born from the influx of spiritual things from the Lord, a person has the ability to think, and also to understand what the good and truth of civil or public life and moral or private life are, and also to receive spiritual truth, that is, the truth of faith. Yet he has no ability to do these things except by means of the remnants of good which he received in early childhood. Of the existence of remnants, and the fact that they are stored away in man in his interior rational, man is completely unaware. That unawareness is due to thinking that nothing flows in but that everything is innate within him, and thus present within him when he is an infant, though the reality is altogether different from that. Remnants are referred to in various places in the Word, and by them are meant those states by which a person becomes human, and this from the Lord alone.

[4] The remnants which resided with the Lord however were all the Divine states which He acquired to Himself and by means of which He united the Human Essence to the Divine Essence. These are in no way comparable with the remnants that reside with man, for the latter are not Divine but human. The remnants the Lord had are what is meant by the ten years Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan. When angels hear the Word they have no knowledge of what 'ten' is; but the moment ten is mentioned by man the idea of remnants comes to them, for 'ten' and 'tenths' in the Word mean remnants, as is clear from what has been stated and shown in 576, 1738. And when they perceive that 'Abram had been dwelling ten years in the land of Canaan' the idea of the Lord comes to them, and with it simultaneously countless things meant by the remnants residing with the Lord when He was in the world.
