Studie

       

21 And the remainder shall be for the chief, on this side and on that side of the holy uplifting, and for the possession of the city, facing the five and twenty thousand of the uplifting until the border eastward, and westward on the faces of the five and twenty thousand on the border westward, alongside the parts for the chief; and it shall be the holy uplifting; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in its midst.

Issachar

  

'Issachar,' in an opposite sense, signifies merit-seeking good.

In Genesis 49:14, this signifies a reward or compensation for good works done from self-centered motives. (Apocalypse Revealed 358, 445[4])

'Issachar,' in the highest sense, signifies the divine good of truth, and truth of good. In a spiritual sense, he signifies celestial conjugial love, which is the love of goodness and truth. And in a natural sense, he signifies repayment, or giving rewards.
