Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 5974

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

5974. 'Enough; Joseph my son is still alive' means joy that the internal had not perished. This is clear from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal celestial, and from the meaning of 'being alive' as not having perished or been cast away, as above in 5967. That joy is meant is self-evident.
