4894. 'And he returned to Judah' means reflection. This becomes clear from the fact that 'the Adullamite, Judah's companion' means falsity, 4817, 4854, 4886, and when falsity is said 'to return' and, as Judah's companion does here, to report what had happened, nothing else is meant than a recalling to mind and reflection on what the situation is.

4886. 'By the hand of his companion the Adullamite' means by means of falsity. This is clear from the representation of 'Hirah the Adullamite' - who was Judah's companion - as falsity, dealt with in 4817, 4854.
