13
And thou shalt speak thus in the sight of the Lord thy God: I have taken that which was sanctified out of my house, and I have given it to the Levite, and to the stranger, and to the fatherless, and to the widow, as thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments nor forgotten thy precepts.
'Labor,' as in Genesis 41:51, denotes the combats of temptation. 'To eat the labor of the hands' signifies celestial good which man receives through living a life according to divine truths from the Lord. 'Labor' has respect, in a positive sense, to the things that are of love, and in an opposite sense, to the things that are of evil. It also signifies affliction of soul and crucifixion of the flesh for the sake of the Lord and of eternal life.
