1814. Verse 7 And He said to him, I am Jehovah, who brought you forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to inherit.

'He said to him, I am Jehovah' means the Lord's Internal Man which is Jehovah, from whom perception came. 'Who brought you forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans' means the first state of the External Man. 'To give you this land to inherit' means the Lord's kingdom, of which He alone is the Possessor.

Like other descriptions of time in the Word, "a day" or a number of "days" describe a spiritual state rather than our natural concept of time. A spiritual "day" describes a state of mind or a state in our relationship with the Lord rather than a 12-hour or 24-hour span of natural time. "Day" describes a state in which we are turned toward the Lord, and are receiving light (which is truth) and heat (which is a desire for good) from the Lord.
