1 αὗται δὲ αἱ γενέσεις ησαυ αὐτός ἐστιν εδωμ

2 ησαυ δὲ ἔλαβεν γυναῖκας ἑαυτῷ ἀπὸ τῶν θυγατέρων τῶν χαναναίων τὴν αδα θυγατέρα αιλων τοῦ χετταίου καὶ τὴν ελιβεμα θυγατέρα ανα τοῦ υἱοῦ σεβεγων τοῦ ευαίου

3 καὶ τὴν βασεμμαθ θυγατέρα ισμαηλ ἀδελφὴν ναβαιωθ

4 ἔτεκεν δὲ αδα τῷ ησαυ τὸν ελιφας καὶ βασεμμαθ ἔτεκεν τὸν ραγουηλ

5 καὶ ελιβεμα ἔτεκεν τὸν ιεους καὶ τὸν ιεγλομ καὶ τὸν κορε οὗτοι υἱοὶ ησαυ οἳ ἐγένοντο αὐτῷ ἐν γῇ χανααν

6 ἔλαβεν δὲ ησαυ τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας καὶ πάντα τὰ σώματα τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντα καὶ πάντα τὰ κτήνη καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐκτήσατο καὶ ὅσα περιεποιήσατο ἐν γῇ χανααν καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐκ γῆς χανααν ἀπὸ προσώπου ιακωβ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ

7 ἦν γὰρ αὐτῶν τὰ ὑπάρχοντα πολλὰ τοῦ οἰκεῖν ἅμα καὶ οὐκ ἐδύνατο ἡ γῆ τῆς παροικήσεως αὐτῶν φέρειν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους τῶν ὑπαρχόντων αὐτῶν

8 ὤ|κησεν δὲ ησαυ ἐν τῷ ὄρει σηιρ ησαυ αὐτός ἐστιν εδωμ

9 αὗται δὲ αἱ γενέσεις ησαυ πατρὸς εδωμ ἐν τῷ ὄρει σηιρ

10 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν ησαυ ελιφας υἱὸς αδας γυναικὸς ησαυ καὶ ραγουηλ υἱὸς βασεμμαθ γυναικὸς ησαυ

11 ἐγένοντο δὲ υἱοὶ ελιφας θαιμαν ωμαρ σωφαρ γοθομ καὶ κενεζ

12 θαμνα δὲ ἦν παλλακὴ ελιφας τοῦ υἱοῦ ησαυ καὶ ἔτεκεν τῷ ελιφας τὸν αμαληκ οὗτοι υἱοὶ αδας γυναικὸς ησαυ

8314. 'Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed' means a like feeling on the part of those leading a life of evil arising from self-love. This is clear from the meaning of 'the chiefs' as the leaders, thus each and every person, dealt with below; and from the representation of 'Edom' as those who, ruled by the evil of self-love, seize on falsities and cast aside truths, or as - in the sense abstracted from persons - the evil of self-love which embraces falsity and rejects truth, so that 'Edom' also represents those who lead a life of evil arising from that love, namely self-love. As regards the word 'chiefs', leaders are meant by it, or - in the sense abstracted from persons - leading features, and so each and every aspect. For when the word 'chiefs' is used, it implies each and every person under them, as when the word 'king' is used it implies all subjects of his kingdom; for the group takes its name from the most powerful person among them. When the term 'chiefs' or 'commanders' is mentioned in the Word general headings under which all else comes is meant, or leading features, as with 'tertiary commanders', 8150, 8276; and that term has reference to good, or in the contrary sense to evil. 'Princes' however likewise means general headings under which all else comes, or first and foremost features, 1482, 2089, 5044; but it has reference to truth.

[2] It should be recognized that in the Word there are terms that belong to the group of spiritual things and terms that belong to the group of celestial things; that is, there are terms serving to express such things as are matters of truth or faith, and terms serving to express such things as are matters of good or love. In addition there are terms that have reference to both. As soon as the person who is acquainted with these looks at or reads the Word, especially in its original language, he knows when such things as are matters of truth are the subject in the internal sense, and when such things as are matters of good are the subject. This is the situation with the meaning of 'princes' and 'chiefs'. 'Princes' means first and foremost features and is used in reference to the truths of faith, or in the contrary sense to falsities of faith, whereas 'chiefs' means leading features and is used in reference to the good of love, or in the contrary sense to the evils of love.

[3] So it is that those who ruled in Edom were called 'chiefs', as is evident from Genesis 36:15-19, 21, 29-30, 40-43. The reason why they were called 'chiefs' is that 'Edom' meant the good of celestial love, and in the contrary sense the evil of self-love. But among 'the sons of Ishmael', those who were set in authority over everyone else were not called 'chiefs' but 'princes', Genesis 25:16, because 'Ishmael' means those guided by truth, 3263, 3268, 4747. For the same reason the term 'princes' was used for those set in authority in Israel, Numbers 7:2, 10, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, since 'Israel' represented those governed by the truth and good of faith. But those set in authority in Judah were called 'chiefs' since Judah' represented those governed by the good of love, as in Zechariah,

Let him be like a chief in Judah. Zechariah 9:7.

And in the same prophet,

The chiefs of Judah will say in their heart, I will strengthen 1 for myself the inhabitants of Jerusalem in Jehovah Zebaoth, their God. On that day I will make the chiefs of Judah like a furnace of fire among pieces of wood. Zechariah 12:5-6.

1. This differs from what appears in English versions of Scripture because Swedenborg, following Sebastian Schmidt, reads the Hebrew as a verb, not as a noun.
