5514. Twelve are we, brothers' means all truths in their entirety. This is clear from the meaning of 'twelve' as all, and - when used, as it is here, in reference to the sons of Jacob, or else to the tribes named after them, as well as to the twelve apostles - as all aspects of faith in their entirety, dealt with in 577, 2089, 2129, 2130, 2553, 3272, 3488, 3858, 3862, 3913, 3926, 3939, 4060.
