10615. 'And proclaimed the name of Jehovah' means worship of the Lord springing from the truths and forms of the good of faith and love, and so preparation for reception. This is clear from the meaning of 'proclaiming the name of Jehovah' as worship of the Lord springing from the truths and forms of the good of faith and love. For 'proclaiming' means worship, see 440, 2724, while 'the name of Jehovah' means everything in its entirety by which the Lord is worshipped, thus everything of faith and love, 2724, 6674, 9310, and also the Lord's Divine Human, 2628, 6887, 'Jehovah' in the Word being the Lord, see in the places referred to in 9373. From all this it is evident that 'proclaiming the name of Jehovah' means worship of the Lord springing from the truths and forms of the good of faith and love. The reason why preparation for being received is also meant is that the subject in what follows immediately after this is the Israelite nation who were to be received and for whom Moses prayed.

2629. 'Whom Sarah bore to him' means its essential being received from, and its manifestation given by, the Divine spiritual united to the Divine celestial. This is clear from the meaning of 'bearing' as giving manifestation to, dealt with in 2621; and since childbirth implies conception - and the giving of birth, or manifestation, rests with the Divine spiritual, while conception or the imparting of being rests with the Divine celestial, and these are united here - 'bearing' here means the receipt of being as well as the gift of manifestation; and also from the representation of 'Sarah' as the Divine spiritual united to the Divine celestial, dealt with in 1468, 1901, 2063, 2065, 2172, 2173, 2198, 2507. These arcana are so deep that they defy description, so deep in fact that they cannot be illustrated by anything at all in this world. They are intended for the minds of angels, to which they are presented in the light of heaven by means of things which lie beyond description.
