3100. 'The man, wondering at her, remained silent' means a state of perception regarding those things. This is clear from the meaning of 'wondering but remaining silent' - when he saw that the things he had spoken in his heart were actually taking place - as a state of acknowledgement, yet at the same time of waiting to see whether it really was so. He 'wondered' because he acknowledged that things were happening as he had prayed, but he 'remained silent' because he was waiting to see whether it was in fact so. This is the state of perception that is meant.

Beer, or Beersheba

  

In Genesis 21:14, 36; 28:10, Beersheba signifies divine doctrine. (Arcana Coelestia 3690)

In Genesis 26:23, it signifies the doctrine of faith which, from the very literal sense of the Word, is divine. (Arcana Coelestia 3436)

In Genesis 21:33, 'He planted a grove in Beersheba' means doctrine with the cognitions composing it and the nature of it. 'And he called on the name of [Jehovah,] the God of Eternity' means worship from it. (Arcana Coelestia 2723)
