5011. 'That she cried out to the men of the house' means falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'a cry' as falsity, dealt with in 2240, and consequently 'crying out' is used in reference to falsity. In the genuine sense 'the men of the house' are truths in the service of good, but in the contrary sense they are falsities in the service of evil. The fact that they are falsities which Potiphar's wife tells the men of the house now, and her husband later on, is evident from what she actually tells them. For the natural truth that is meant here by 'Potiphar's wife' is incapable of telling anything but falsities, which are the opposite of the truth, once outermost spiritual truth, the most external aspect of which can seemingly effect a joining together, has been torn away, see above towards the end of 5008.
