És felele néki Júda, mondván: Erõsen fogadkozék az a férfiú, mondván: Színem elé ne kerûljetek, ha veletek nem lesz a ti atyátokfia.
1 Mózes 43:3
Arcana Coelestia # 5599
5599. Saying, Is your father yet alive? That this signifies and concerning the spiritual good from which they were, is evident from the representation of Israel, who is the “father” here, as being spiritual good (see n. 3654, 4598, 5595). It is said “from which they were” because from this good, as from a father, the truths of faith come down (n. 5598).
