Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

5239. 'And he interpreted our dreams for us' means what the things foreseen in obscurity held within them. This is clear from the meaning of 'interpreting' as what was held within, dealt with in 5093, 5105, 5107; and from the meaning of 'dreams' as the things foreseen in obscurity, dealt with above in 5233.
