4346. 'And he himself passed over in front of them' means that which is universal and so means all things. This is clear from the representation of Jacob, to whom 'he' refers here, as that good of truth, that is, truth in will and action, dealt with in 4337. The good of truth is the universal embodiment of every kind of truth, for the general, the particular, and the specific kinds of it spoken of immediately above all go with it because they are included within it.

2361. Verse 8 Behold now, I have two daughters, who have not known a man; let me now bring them out to you and you may do to them as is good in your eyes; only do nothing to those men, for they have come under the shadow of my roof.

'Behold now, I have two daughters, who have not known a man' means the affections for good and for truth. 'Let me now bring them out to you' means blessedness from these. 'And you may do to them as is good in your eyes' means enjoyment insofar as they perceived them to come from good. 'Only do nothing to those men' means that they were to do no violence to the Lord's Divine Human and His Holy proceeding. 'For they have come under the shadow of my roof' means that the good of charity exists with them, 'shadow of the roof' meaning within a general obscure [perception] of that good.
