2787. Verse 4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar off.
'On the third day' means that which has been completed, and the beginning of sanctification. 'And Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw' means thought and insight received from the Divine. 'The place from afar off' means into the state which He foresaw.
13
Again he sent the captain of a third fifty with his fifty. The third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and begged him, and said to him, "Man of God, please let my life, and the life of these fifty your servants, be precious in your sight.
14
Behold, fire came down from the sky, and consumed the two former captains of fifty with their fifties. But now let my life be precious in your sight."
