Arcana Coelestia # 3165
3165. 'And gave them to Rebekah' means which passed at that point to the affection for truth. This is clear from the representation of 'Rebekah' as the affection for truth, dealt with in 2865, 3077. The words immediately above - 'vessels of silver, vessels of gold, and garments' - describe the affection for truth as the bride. Those words mean therefore that at that point the affection for truth was such, or what amounts to the same, those things passed at that point to the affection for truth.
Follow
The basic meaning of "follow" in the Bible is pretty obvious if we consider what it means to "follow the Lord." That obviously doesn't mean we're going to wait for Him to go for a walk and tag along; it means we're going to do the things He said and believe the things He tells us in the Bible. We're going to follow Him by making His precepts a part of our lives. That same idea applies to other cases. When people in the Bible follow something, it means they are making that spiritual thing (whatever spiritual thing is described) a part of their lives. And the order of the language can even be reversed: sometimes things are described as following people (as in Psalm 23: "surely goodness and mercy will follow me..."), which again means that people are making those spiritual qualities a part of their lives.
