The previous chapter dealt with the internal man, which is 'Joseph' - with the initial steps taken by the internal man to become joined to the external natural man, which is 'Jacob's ten sons', through the intermediary, which is 'Benjamin'. The present chapter too deals with the internal man - with the actual joining of it to the external natural man. But since the two are not joined together except through spiritual good from the natural, which is 'Israel', the internal man prepares to link this good to itself first.
