Arcana Coelestia #6249
6249. 'And Israel saw Joseph's sons' means a discernment regarding the Church's understanding and will. This is clear from the meaning of 'seeing' as discernment, dealt with in 2150, 3764, 4403-4421, 4567, 4723, 5400; and from the representation of Ephraim and Manasseh as the Church's understanding and will, born from the internal, which is 'Joseph', dealt with in 5354, 6222.
Arcana Coelestia #3765
3765. 'Behold, a well' means the Word. This is clear from the meaning of 'a well' as the Word and also as doctrine drawn from the Word, dealt with in 2702, 3096, 3424. The Word is called 'a well' here because the subject is the natural, which by itself can do no more than understand the literal sense of the Word. But the Word is called 'a spring' when the subject is the rational, by which one is able to see the internal sense of the Word.
