Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 6083

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

6083. The land of Egypt, before thee is it. That this signifies that the memory-knowledges of the natural mind are under the auspices of the internal celestial, is evident from the signification of the "land of Egypt," as being the natural mind where memory-knowledges are (see n. 5276, 5278, 5280, 5288, 5301); and from the signification of "before thee," as being under the auspices of the internal celestial, which is "Joseph" (n. 5869, 5877).
