3731. Verses 20-22. And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way wherein I walk, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, and I return in peace to my father’s house, Jehovah shall be to me for God. And this stone which I have set up for a pillar shall be God’s house; and all that Thou shalt give me, tithing I will tithe it to Thee. “And Jacob vowed a vow, saying,” signifies a state of Providence; “if God will be with me and will keep me in this way wherein I walk,” signifies continuously Divine; “and will give me bread to eat,” signifies even to conjunction with Divine good; “and raiment to put on,” signifies conjunction with Divine truth; “and I return in peace to my father’s house,” signifies even to perfect union; “and Jehovah shall be to me for God,” signifies that the Divine natural should also be Jehovah; “and this stone which I have set up for a pillar,” signifies truth which is the ultimate; “shall be God’s house” signifies here as before the Lord’s kingdom in the ultimate of order, in which are higher things as in their house; “and all that Thou shalt give me, tithing I will tithe it to Thee,” signifies that He would make all things Divine in general and in particular by His own power.
