4979. 'And it happened from the time he put him in charge in his house and over all that he had' means a second state, after this good had applied itself to that truth and had made all that belonged to it seemingly subject to the power and control of that truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'it happened' or 'so it was' - an expression used many times in the Word - as that which implies something new and therefore a second state (similarly in verses 7, 10, 11, 13, 15, 18, 19 below); from the meaning of 'from the time he put him in charge in his house' as after good had applied itself to that truth, dealt with above in 4977; and from the meaning of 'over all that he had' as all that belonged to such good was made seemingly subject to the power and control of that truth, also dealt with above, in 4978.
