1 Nang magkagayon ay hindi nakapagpigil si Jose sa harap nilang lahat na nakatayo sa siping niya; at sumigaw, Paalisin ninyo ang lahat ng tao sa aking harap. At walang taong tumayo na kasama niya samantalang si Jose ay napakikilala sa kaniyang mga kapatid.

2 At siya'y umiyak ng malakas: at narinig ng mga Egipcio, at narinig ng sangbahayan ni Faraon.

3 At sinabi ni Jose sa kaniyang mga kapatid, Ako'y si Jose; buhay pa ba ang aking ama? At ang kaniyang mga kapatid ay hindi mangakasagot sa kaniya: sapagka't sila'y nagugulumihanan sa kaniyang harap.

4 At sinabi ni Jose sa kaniyang mga kapatid, Lumapit kayo sa akin, isinasamo ko sa inyo. At sila'y lumapit. At kaniyang sinabi: Ako'y si Jose na inyong kapatid, na inyong ipinagbili upang dalhin sa Egipto.

5 At ngayo'y huwag kayong magdalamhati, o magalit man sa inyong sarili na inyo akong ipinagbili rito: sapagka't sinugo ako ng Dios sa unahan ninyo upang magadya ng buhay.

6 Sapagka't may dalawang taon nang ang kagutom ay nasa lupain; at may limang taon pang hindi magkakaroon ng pagbubukid, o pagaani man.

7 At sinugo ako ng Dios sa unahan ninyo upang papanatilihin kayong pinakalahi sa lupa, at upang iligtas kayong buhay sa pamamagitan ng dakilang pagliligtas.

8 Hindi nga kayo ang nagsugo sa akin dito, kundi ang Dios: at kaniya akong ginawang ama kay Faraon, at panginoon sa buo niyang bahay, at tagapamahala ng buong lupain ng Egipto.

9 Magmadali kayo, at pumaroon kayo sa aking ama, at sabihin ninyo sa kaniya: Ganito ang sabi ng iyong anak na si Jose: Ginawa akong panginoon ng Dios sa buong Egipto: pumarito ka sa akin, huwag kang magluwat.

10 At ikaw ay tatahan sa lupain ng Gosen, at malalapit ka sa akin, ikaw at ang iyong mga anak, at ang mga anak ng iyong mga anak, at ang iyong mga kawan, at ang iyong mga bakahan, at ang iyong buong tinatangkilik.

11 At doo'y kakandilihin kita; sapagka't may limang taong kagutom pa; baka ikaw ay madukha, ikaw at ang iyong sangbahayan, at ang lahat ng iyo.

12 At, narito, nakikita ng inyong mga mata at ng mga mata ng aking kapatid na si Benjamin, na ang aking bibig ang nagsasalita sa inyo.

13 At inyong sasaysayin sa aking ama ang aking buong kaluwalhatian sa Egipto, at ang inyong buong nakita; at kayo'y magmamadali at inyong ibababa rito ang aking ama.

14 At siya'y humilig sa leeg ng kaniyang kapatid na si Benjamin, at umiyak; at si Benjamin ay umiyak sa ibabaw ng kaniyang leeg.

15 At kaniyang hinagkan ang lahat niyang kapatid, at umiyak sa kanila: at pagkatapos ay nakipagsalitaan sa kaniya ang kaniyang mga kapatid.

16 At ang kabantugang yaon ay naibalita sa sangbahayan ni Faraon, na sinasabi, Nagsidating ang mga kapatid ni Jose: at ikinalugod ni Faraon, at ng kaniyang mga lingkod.

17 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Sabihin mo sa iyong mga kapatid, Ito'y gawin ninyo: pasanan ninyo ang inyong mga hayop, at kayo'y yumaon, umuwi sa lupain ng Canaan;

18 At dalhin ninyo ang inyong ama at ang inyong mga sangbahayan, at pumarito kayo sa akin: at aking ibibigay sa inyo ang pinakamabuti sa lupain ng Egipto, at kakanin ninyo ang katabaan ng lupain.

19 Ngayo'y inuutusan ka, ito'y gawin ninyo; kumuha kayo ng mga kariton sa lupain ng Egipto para sa inyong mga bata, at sa inyong mga asawa, at dalhin ninyo rito ang inyong ama, at kayo'y pumarito.

20 Huwag din ninyong lingapin ang inyong pag-aari; dahil sa ang buti ng buong lupain ng Egipto ay inyo.

21 At ginawang gayon ng mga anak ni Israel: at binigyan sila ni Jose ng mga kariton, ayon sa utos ni Faraon, at sila'y binigyan ng mababaon sa daan.

22 Sa kanilang lahat ay nagbigay siya ng mga pangpalit na bihisan; nguni't kay Benjamin ay nagbigay siya ng tatlong daang putol na pilak, at limang pangpalit na bihisan.

23 At sa kaniyang ama ay nagpadala siya ng ganitong paraan; sangpung asnong may pasang mabuting mga bagay sa Egipto, at sangpung asna na may pasang trigo at tinapay at pagkain ng kaniyang ama sa daan.

24 Sa ganito ay kaniyang pinapagpaalam ang kaniyang mga kapatid, at sila'y yumaon: at kaniyang sinabi sa kanila, Huwag kayong magkaaalit sa daan.

25 At sila'y sumumpa mula sa Egipto, at naparoon sa lupain ng Canaan, kay Jacob na kanilang ama.

26 At kanilang isinaysay sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Si Jose ay buhay pa, at siya'y puno sa buong lupain ng Egipto. At ang kaniyang puso ay nanglupaypay, sapagka't di niya pinaniwalaan sila.

27 At kanilang isinaysay sa kaniya ang lahat ng salita ni Jose, na kaniyang sinabi sa kanila: nang kaniyang makita ang mga karitong ipinadala ni Jose upang dalhin sa kaniya, ay nagsauli ang diwa ni Jacob na kanilang ama.

28 At sinabi ni Israel, Siya na; si Jose na aking anak ay buhay pa: ako'y paroroon at titingnan ko siya, bago ako mamatay.

5898. 'And for the bestowal of life on you' means the spiritual life from there that is bestowed on the truths in the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'bestowing life' as spiritual life, dealt with above in 5890. For spiritual life is gained entirely from remnants, which is why the words 'the spiritual life from there' are used. And because they are the source from which that life is obtained, the reference to 'a remnant' is followed immediately by the words 'for the bestowal of life on you', that is to say, on the truths in the natural, which are represented by Jacob's sons, 5403, 5419, 5427, 5458, 5512.

Arcana Coelestia#5427

5427. 'And Joseph recognized his brothers' means that the truths of the Church were visible to the celestial of the spiritual in the light that this possessed. This is clear from the meaning of 'recognizing' as perceiving, seeing, and so being visible; from the representation of 'Joseph' as the celestial of the spiritual, dealt with already; and from the meaning of 'his brothers' as the general truths known to the Church, dealt with above in 5409, 5419. And Since 'Joseph recognized his brothers' means that those truths - the general truths known to the Church - were visible to the celestial of the spiritual, it follows that they were seen by the light in which the celestial of the spiritual dwells and so by the light which the celestial of the spiritual possesses. In this light, which is truth from the Divine, 5417, every single truth below - that is, within the natural - is visible. But the reverse is not possible if no intermediary is present, still less if no agreement between the two sides exists, no agreement enabling the two to be joined together. This becomes quite clear from the consideration that angels dwelling in the heavens, and so in the light of heaven, can see every single thing that happens in the world of spirits, which is immediately below the heavens, as well as every single thing that happens on the earth of the lower ones, and indeed that happens in the hells. But the reverse is not possible.

[2] It is also the case that the angels of a higher heaven can see everything that is happening in the heaven beneath them, but the reverse is not so unless an intermediary exists. Intermediary spirits also serve as the means by which communication forward and back takes place. When therefore those who are in a lower position and have no intermediary, and more particularly those who are not in agreement with the ones above them, look at the light of heaven, they see absolutely nothing at all; everything there appears to them to dwell in total obscurity. But in fact those in the place where they look dwell in the brightest light. This may be illustrated by the following unique experience: A large city once appeared in front of me, where there were thousands of different, delightful and beautiful sights. I saw these because an intermediary had been provided; yet the spirits present with me could not see a single thing because they had no intermediary. I was told that even though they are present in that place those who are not in agreement with the ones above them discern nothing whatever of the things existing there.

[3] The same is similarly true of a person's interior man or spirit, which is also called his soul. The interior man can see every single thing present and taking place in the exterior man; but the reverse is not possible unless the two are in agreement and an intermediary is present. To the exterior man therefore, when it is not in agreement with the interior man, the interior man does not appear to have any existence. It appears to be so completely non-existent that when anything is said about the interior man, it seems to the exterior man either to be so obscure that it is unwilling even to contemplate it or to be nothing it can believe in. But when agreement between the two does exist, the exterior man sees, with the help of the intermediary, what is going on in the interior man. For then the light which the interior man possesses enters into the light which the exterior or natural man possesses; that is, heavenly light passes into natural light and brightens it, and in this brighter light what is happening to the interior man is made visible. This is the origin of the intelligence and wisdom which the exterior man possesses. But if no intermediary is present, and especially if no agreement exists, the interior man sees and perceives what is going on in the exterior man and also to some extent guides it; the reverse however does not happen. More than that, if contrariety exists - that is to say, if the exterior man completely perverts or snuffs out what comes in by way of the interior man - the interior man is deprived of the light it receives from heaven, heaven is inaccessible to it, and a communication from hell with the exterior man is opened up. You may see more about these matters in what now follows below.
