Studie

       

14 Wenn nun eine Dirne kommt, zu der ich spreche: Neige deinen Krug und laß mich trinken, und sie sprechen wird: Trinke, ich will deine Kamele auch tränken, daß sie die sei, die du deinem Diener Isaak bescheret habest, und ich daran erkenne, daß du Barmherzigkeit an meinem HERRN getan hast.

3054. 'He made the camels kneel down' means a holy ordering of general facts. This is clear from the meaning of 'making them kneel down' as ordering themselves into a holy array, and from the meaning of 'the camels' as general facts, dealt with just above in 3048.
