1431. Verse 5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their acquisitions that they had acquired, and [every] soul which they had gained in Haran. And they came out to go into the land of Canaan; and they came into the land of Canaan.

'And Abram took Sarai his wife' means good to which truth has been joined, 'Abram', as stated, being used to mean the Lord - here when He was a boy - and 'Sarai his wife' to mean truth. 'And Lot his brother's son' means truth that has been learned through the senses, thus the first that is implanted in childhood. 'And all the acquisitions that they had acquired' means all truths that have been learned through the senses. 'And [every] soul which they had gained in Haran' means every essential with life in it that was possible in that obscure state. 'And they came out to go into the land of Canaan' means that in this manner He drew closer to the celestial things of love. 'And they came into the land of Canaan' means that He attained to the celestial things of love.
