11 Så skall det dem emellan komma till en ed vid HERREN, för att det må utrönas om den ene icke har förgripit sig på den andres tillhörighet; denna ed skall ägaren antaga och den andre behöver icke giva någon ersättning.

4170. 'And I have not eaten the rams of your flock' means the truth of good, in that He took nothing of his. This is clear from the meaning of 'rams' as the truths of good - for 'sheep' means goods, and 'rams' consequently the truths that go with good since rams partner sheep; and from the meaning of 'eating' as making one's own, dealt with in 3168, 3513, 3596, 3832, and so taking, for that belonging to another which is made one's own is something taken from him.
