Nurse

  

In Genesis 21:7, this signifies to implant truth from good, or something spiritual from a celestial origin. (Arcana Coelestia 2643)

In Psalm 8:2, this signifies that praise can come to the Lord only through innocence, for this alone effects all communication and all influx. (Arcana Coelestia 5236[4]) 'The nurse,' in Genesis 24:59, signifies a state of innocence. 'The nurse,' in Genesis 35, signifies hereditary evil. 'A nurse,' as she feeds and nurses an infant, properly signifies the introduction of innocence by the celestial spiritual. But when 'Deborah, the nurse of Rebecca died and was buried,' it signifies that hereditary evil which the Lord received from His mother, which was nourished from infancy just like with other people, was later totally expelled forever.

5235. 'We dreamed each according to the interpretation of his own dream' means what was to be the outcome of both. This is clear from the meaning of 'interpretation' as what it held within it and what was to take place, dealt with in 5093, 5105, 5107, 5141, and so what the outcome was to be - [evident] from what was foreseen, meant by 'a dream', 5233.
