6251.“约瑟对他父亲说”表来自更内在之物的答复。这是显而易见的，无需解释，因为“约瑟”表示内在（6177节）。事实上，当一个人觉知某事时，他就会自问关于这件事他所知道的东西，并从更内在之物进行自答。我还发现，当灵人问我我对于某事所知道的东西时，他们只是探察一下我的思维就能得到答复。
Potts(1905-1910) 6251
6251. And Joseph said unto his father. That this signifies an answer from within, may be seen without explication, for by "Joseph" is meant the internal (n. 6177); for when a man perceives, he then on making inquiry with himself about anything, also answers himself from within. I have also observed that when spirits have made inquiry with me, they received an answer by merely looking into my thought.
Elliott(1983-1999) 6251
6251. 'And Joseph said to his father' means a response coming from what exists more internally. This becomes clear without explanation, since 'Joseph' means what is internal, 6177. For what happens when a person perceives something is that he asks himself what he knows about the matter and also responds to what he asks from what exists more internally in him. I have also noticed that when spirits have asked me what I knew about something they received a response by merely looking into my thought.
Latin(1748-1756) 6251
6251. `Et dixit Joseph ad patrem suum': quod significet responsum ab interiore, constare potest absque explicatione, cum per `Josephum' intelligitur internum, n. 6177; cum enim homo percipit, tunc cum inquirit apud se de aliqua re, etiam respondet sibi ab interiore; observatum etiam est, cum spiritus aliquid inquisiverunt apud me, quod ex sola intuitione in cogitationem meam responsum tulerint.
