6562. Thus shall ye say unto Joseph. That this signifies perception from the internal what ought to be done, is evident from the signification of "saying," in the historic Word, as being perception (see n. 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2619, 2862, 3509, 5687, 5743); and from the representation of Joseph, as being the internal (n. 6177, 6224, 6560). That it is perception of what ought to be done, is signified by "thus shall ye say."
