5609. 'And I will be surety for him' means that in the meantime [the truth of good] will be attached to it [the good of the Church]. This is clear from the meaning of 'being surety for someone' as being responsible for him, as is also evident from what immediately follows, especially from what Judah told Joseph regarding his being surety, Genesis 44:32-33. And because 'being surety' is being responsible for that person, even while on the way the truth of good exists attached to it [the good of the Church].

32 For your servant became collateral for the boy to my father, saying, 'If I don't bring him to you, then I will bear the blame to my father forever.'

33 Now therefore, please let your servant stay instead of the boy, a bondservant to my lord; and let the boy go up with his brothers.
