Anokaat minulta rohkiasti huomenlahja ja antimia, ja minä annan, mitä te anotte: antakaat minulle vaivoin se piika emännäksi.

As with common verbs in general, the meaning of “come” in the Bible is highly dependent on context – its meaning is determined largely by who is coming to whom and the circumstances of the action. In general, though, to come to someone - or to come to a place - represents the presence of one spiritual state with another, communication from one to the other and ultimately conjunction between them.
4519. 'And they will be gathered together against me and will smite me, and I shall be destroyed' means, for the Ancient Church so to perish. This is clear from the meaning of 'being gathered together, smitten, and destroyed' as perishing. The reason why the Ancient Church is meant is that Jacob says this of himself and his house. For here 'Jacob' means the Ancient Church, see above in 4514.
