6583.“约瑟见到以法莲第三代的子孙”表就其理解力及其衍生物而言，教会的建立。这从“以法莲”的代表和“第三代子孙”的含义清楚可知：“以法莲”是指教会的理解力（参看3969，5354，6222，6234，6238，6267节）；“第三代子孙”是指衍生物；由于儿子和儿子的儿子出身于父母，所以他们表示这父母所代表的事物的衍生物。“约瑟见到”表示来自内在，也就是经由内在来自主的教会的建立。至于何为“以法莲”所代表的教会理解力，可参看前文（6222节）。
Potts(1905-1910) 6583
6583. And Joseph saw Ephraim's sons of the third generation. That this signifies the setting up again of the church in respect to the intellectual and its derivatives, is evident from the representation of Ephraim, as being the intellectual of the church (see n. 3969, 5354, 6222, 6234, 6238, 6267); and from the signification of "sons of the third generation," as being derivatives; for as sons and the sons of sons descend from a parent, they denote the derivatives of that which is represented by the parent. The setting up again of the church from the internal, that is, through the internal from the Lord, is signified by "Joseph saw." (What the intellectual of the church represented by Ephraim is, see n. 6222.)
Elliott(1983-1999) 6583
6583. 'And Joseph saw Ephraim's sons of the third generation' means the establishment of the Church so far as its understanding and the derivatives from this were concerned. This is clear from the representation of 'Ephraim' as the area of understanding in the Church, dealt with in 3969, 5354, 6222, 6274, 6238, 6267; and from the meaning of 'sons of the third generation' as derivatives, for being the descendants of their parent, 'sons and 'sons of sons' mean the thing represented by that parent. The establishment of the Church from the internal, that is, from the Lord through the internal, is meant by 'Joseph saw. What the Church's understanding is which 'Ephraim' represents, see 6222.
Latin(1748-1756) 6583
6583. `Et vidit Joseph Ephraimo filios tertianorum': quod significet Ecclesiae instaurationem quoad intellectuale et ejus derivativa, constat ex repraesentatione `Ephraimi' quod sit intellectuale Ecclesiae, de qua n. 3969, 5354, 6222, 6234, 6238, 6267; et ex significatione `filiorum tertianorum' quod sint derivativa, nam filii (c)et `filiorum filii', quia descendunt a parente, sunt derivativa illius rei quae per parentem repraesentatur; instauratio Ecclesiae ab interno, hoc est, per internum a Domino, significatur per `vidit Joseph'. Quid intellectuale Ecclesiae quod per `Ephraimum' repraesentatur, videatur n. 6222.
