וְאֶת־הָעָם הֶעֱבִיר אֹתֹו לֶעָרִים מִקְצֵה גְבוּל־מִצְרַיִם וְעַד־קָצֵהוּ׃
Arcana Coelestia # 6139
6139. 'And give us seed' means an influx, as a result of this, of the good of charity and the truth of faith. This is clear from the meaning of 'seed' as the good of charity and the truth of faith, dealt with in 1025, 1447, 1610, 1940, 2848, 3078, 3310, 3373. It is self-evident that 'giving' them means an influx, for they enter a person by flowing in from the Lord.
Luke 8:5-8
5
"The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6
Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7
Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.
8
Other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit one hundred times." As he said these things, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
