AC 5688 - Joseph and his brothers

AC 5668 [3]
All that is related of Joseph and his brethren represents in the supreme sense the glorifying of the Lord's Human, that is, how the Lord made the Human in Him Divine.
... Furthermore, the glorifying of the Lord's Human is the pattern of man's regeneration, and so man's regeneration also is presented in the internal sense of the Word at the same time with the glorification of the Lord. Man's regeneration together with its innumerable mysteries also enters into the angels' wisdom, and affords them happiness according as they apply it to its uses, which are for man's reformation.
