6102. 'And Joseph caused his father and his brothers to dwell' means the life which spiritual good and the Church's truths received from the internal celestial. This is clear from the meaning of 'dwelling' as life, dealt with in 1293, 3384, 3613, 4451, 6051; from the representation of Israel, to whom 'father' refers here, as spiritual good from the natural, dealt with in 5801, 5803, 5806, 5812, 5817, 5819, 5826, 5833; from the representation of his sons, to whom 'brothers' refers here, as the Church's truths in the natural, dealt with in 5414, 5879, 5951; and from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal celestial, dealt with in 5869, 5877. From all this it is evident that 'Joseph caused his father and his brothers to dwell' means the life which spiritual good and the Church's truths received from the internal celestial.
