3878. Verse 35 And she conceived again and bore a son, and she said, This time I will confess Jehovah; therefore she called his name Judah. And she left off bearing.

'She conceived again and bore a son' means, as previously, spiritual conception and birth from what is external towards that which is more internal still. 'And she said, This time I will confess Jehovah' means in the highest sense the Lord, in the internal sense the Word, in the external sense doctrine from the Word - the Divinity of love, also His celestial kingdom being meant here. 'Therefore she called his name Judah' means the essential nature of it. 'And she left off bearing' means the ascent up a stairway from earth even to Jehovah or the Lord.
