1 Och HERREN sade till Abram: »Gå ut ur ditt land och från din släkt och från din faders hus, bort till det land som jag skall visa dig.

2 Så skall jag göra dig till ett stort folk; jag skall välsigna dig och göra ditt namn stort, och du skall bliva en välsignelse.

3 Och jag skall välsigna dem som välsigna dig, och den som förbannar dig skall jag förbanna, och i dig skola alla släkter på jorden varda välsignade.»

4 Och Abram gick åstad, såsom HERREN hade tillsagt honom, och Lot gick med honom. Och Abram var sjuttiofem år gammal, när han drog ut från Haran.

5 Och Abram tog sin hustru Sarai och sin brorson Lot och alla ägodelar som de hade förvärvat och tjänarna som de hade skaffat sig i Haran; och de drogo åstad på väg mot Kanaans land

6 och kommo så till Kanaans land. Och Abram drog fram i landet ända till den heliga platsen vid Sikem, till Mores terebint. Och på den tiden bodde kananéerna där i landet.

7 Men HERREN uppenbarade sig för Abram och sade: »Åt din säd skall jag giva detta land.» Då byggde han där ett altare åt HERREN, som hade uppenbarat sig för honom.

8 Sedan flyttade han därifrån till bergsbygden öster om Betel och slog där upp sitt tält, så att han hade Betel i väster och Ai i öster; och han byggde där ett altare åt HERREN och åkallade HERRENS namn.

9 Sedan bröt Abram upp därifrån och drog sig allt längre mot Sydlandet.

10 Men hungersnöd uppstod i landet, och Abram drog ned till Egypten för att bo där någon tid, eftersom hungersnöden var så svår i landet.

11 Men när han nalkades Egypten sade han till sin hustru Sarai: »Jag vet ju att du är en skön kvinna.

12 Om nu egyptierna tänka, när de få se dig: 'Hon är hans hustru', så skola de dräpa mig, under det att de låta dig leva.

13 Säg därför att du är min syster, så att det går mig väl för din skull, och så att jag för din skull får leva.»

14 Då nu Abram kom till Egypten, sågo egyptierna att hon var en mycket skön kvinna.

15 Och när Faraos hövdingar fingo se henne, prisade de henne för Farao, och så blev kvinnan tagen in i Faraos hus.

16 Och Abram blev av honom väl behandlad för hennes skull, så att han fick får, fäkreatur och åsnor, tjänare och tjänarinnor, åsninnor och kameler.

17 Men HERREN hemsökte Farao och hans hus med stora plågor för Sarais, Abrams hustrus, skull.

18 Då kallade Farao Abram till sig och sade: »Vad har du gjort mot mig! Varför lät du mig icke veta att hon var din hustru?

19 Varför sade du: 'Hon är min syster' och vållade så, att jag tog henne till hustru åt mig? Se, här har du nu din hustru, tag henne och gå.»

20 Och Farao gav sina män befallning om honom, att de skulle ledsaga honom till vägs med hans hustru och allt vad han ägde.

The Inner Meaning of Genesis 12

In the previous chapter, Genesis 11, we met Abram for the first time, as his genealogy was traced down through the generations from Noah. Abram represents the beginning of a new spiritual state of humankind - a new church that would record preserve important external truths. Those external truths contained internal ones - true ideas about God the way people should live.

These external truths were encoded in stories, first preserved in oral traditions then in written scriptures in the time of Moses. In the current , Abram, goes, as commanded by God, the land of Canaan. In doing this, he effectively starts the Hebrew church (from Eber, Abraham's forebear).

All the geographic places in the land of Canaan its environs had been given spiritual significations by the people of the Most Ancient Church. In the new Word that would be written there, these places would be mentioned by name would signify spiritual ideas.

When Abraham is driven by famine in the land seek refuge in Egypt, it symbolizes a state of initial instruction for this new church. That early instruction is of an external type. Egypt, in the Word, represents scientific knowledge - the natural sciences - which teach the natural level in people.

There are two levels of "story" nested in the symbolism of the literal text. One is the spiritual story of humankind. Another, higher one, is the story of the inner spiritual process that would take place in the life of Jesus Christ. Both stories are traced out in Swedenborg's exegesis of the Word.

Here's an excerpt from his capstone work, True Christian Religion:

The Word has two senses hidden in its literal sense; these are called the spiritual the celestial senses. In the spiritual sense the contents of the Word refer chiefly the church in the celestial sense chiefly the Lord. Again in the spiritual sense its contents refer Divine truth in the celestial sense Divine good. (True Christian Religion 248)

A detailed description of the inner meaning of this chapter begins in Arcana Coelestia 1401. Here are some key excerpts:

AC 1401. True historical things begin here, all of which are representative, and each word significative. The things related in this chapter concerning Abram represent the Lord‘s state from earliest childhood up to youth. As the Lord was born in the same way as other men, He also advanced from an obscure state to one more lucid. "Haran" is the first state, which was obscure; " Shechem" is the second; "the oakgrove Moreh" is the third; "the mountain which had Bethel toward the sea and Ai on the east," is the fourth; and the "journey thence toward the south into Egypt," is the fifth.

AC 1402. The things told of Abram’s sojourn in Egypt represent and signify the Lord‘s first instruction. "Abram" is the Lord; " Sarai," as a wife, is truth to be adjoined to the celestial " Sarai," as a sister, is intellectual truth; "Egypt" is memory-knowledge (scientia). The progress from memory-knowledges (a scientificis) even to celestial truths is described; this was according to Divine order, that the Lord’s Human Essence might be conjoined with His Divine Essence, and at the same time become Jehovah.
