야곱이 라헬을 위하여 칠년 동안 라반을 봉사하였으나 그를 연애하는 까닭에 칠년을 수일 같이 여겼더라
3853. Verse 31 And Jehovah saw that Leah was hated, and He opened her womb; and Rachel was barren.
'Jehovah saw' means the Lord's foresight and providence. 'That Leah was hated' means that the affection for external truth was not so dear because it was further away from the Divine. 'And He opened her womb' means that this affection gave rise to the doctrines taught by the Churches. 'And Rachel was barren' means that interior truths were not received.
