6228. And Jacob said unto Joseph. That this signifies the communication of the truth of the natural with the internal, is evident from the signification of "saying," as being perception (of which above, n. 6220), and also communication (see n. 3060, 4131), for that which is perceived by another is communicated; from the representation of Jacob, as being the truth of the natural (of which just above, n. 6223); and from the representation of Joseph, as being the internal (of which also above, n. 6224).
