4209. Verses 54-55 And Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain, and called his brothers to eat bread; and they ate bread and stayed the night in the mountain. And in the morning Laban rose up early, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and Laban went and returned to his place.

'Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain' means worship founded on good that stems from love. 'And called his brothers to eat bread' means [an invitation] to make the good from the Lord's Divine Natural their own. 'And they ate bread' means the achievement of this. 'And stayed the night in the mountain' means serenity. 'And in the morning Laban rose up early' means the enlightenment of that good by the Lord's Divine Natural. 'And kissed his sons and his daughters' means the acknowledgement of those truths and of affections for them. 'And blessed them' means the resulting joy. 'And Laban went and returned to his place' means the end of the representation by means of Laban.
