Abimelech

  

In Genesis 20:2, Abimelech, the King of Gerar, signifies the doctrine of faith looking to rational things. (Arcana Coelestia 2509[10])

In Genesis 26:9, Abimelech represents the Lord as to that doctrine. (Arcana Coelestia 3393)

In Genesis 21:25, Abimelech represents those who place salvation in truths alone, without the good of life. (Apocalypse Explained 537[5])

Abimelech, his companion Ahusath, and Phicol, the chief captain of his army (Genesis 26:26), represent the doctrinals of faith as grounded in the literal sense of the Word.
