5325. 'And Pharaoh said to Joseph' means further perception still. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', from the representation of 'Pharaoh', and from the representation of 'Joseph' as perception present in the natural but received from the celestial of the spiritual, dealt with in 5715, here a further perception because the expression is used once again.
