4166. Whereas thou hast felt about all my vessels, what hast thou found of all the vessels of thy house? That this signifies that no truths of good had been his own, but all had been given, is evident from the signification of the “vessels of his house,” as being his own truths. (That “vessels” are truths, see above, n. 3068, 3079, 3316, 3318.) From this it is manifest that the “vessels of his house” denote his own truths. “To feel for them, and not to find,” denotes that none had been his, and consequently that all had been given. How the case herein is may be seen above (n. 4151).
