5825. 'And your servant my father said to us' means perception received from spiritual good. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as perception, dealt with often; and from the representation of Israel, to whom 'father' refers here, as spiritual good from the natural, dealt with in 3654, 4598, 5801, 5803, 5807.
