And he said to them, Do not delay me, since Jehovah has prospered my way. Send me away and let me go to my master. And they said, Let us call the girl and ask her personally. ² And they called Rebekah and said to her, Are you going to go with this man? And she said, I will go.

'Her brother said, and her mother' means doubt on the part of the natural man. 'Let the girl stay with us' means being kept back by them. 'A week or ten days; after that you will go' means a state of departure which was seen by them as a complete state. 'And he said to them, Do not delay me' means the will of the affection for good. 'Since Jehovah has prospered my way' means that all things had now been provided. 'Send me away, and let me go to my master' means as regards the state of introduction. 'And they said, Let us call the girl and ask her personally' means consent solely of the affection for truth. 'And they called Rebekah and said to her, Are you going to go with this man? And she said, I will go' means its full consent.

The loins, as in Ezekiel 29:7, signify the marriage of truth and good. In general, loins signify love, and when referring to the Lord, divine love. They can also signify the interiors of conjugial love. In Isaiah 11:5, they signify people in the divine good of love, and reins signify people in love towards their neighbor.
