29
At ang kanilang buong yaman, at ang lahat ng kanilang mga anak, at mga asawa, ay dinala nilang bihag at samsam, sa makatuwid baga'y lahat na nasa bahay.
Genesis 34:29
Slain
In Genesis 4:23, this signifies to extinguish faith. (Arcana Coelestia 427)
'The slain of Jehovah' signify people who turn truths into falsities, which causes them to perish.
'The slain,' in Lamentations 2:12 signify people who do not know what the truths of faith mean.
'The slain' when referring to the Lord in Revelation 5 means the separation of everything from the divine. In denial of His divinity, He is spiritually slain to people and this denial causes a state of separation from Him.

Father and mother, which a man is to leave
The "father and mother", which a man is supposed to leave (as in Genesis 2:24, and Matthew 19:4, 5) are, in a spiritual sense, his proprium of will, and proprium of understanding. We all love a mixture of good and evil things, as we're growing up, and we all understand a mixture of true and false things, too. The things we "own", at first, are the evil loves and false ideas, and the more we get into them, the more they define us -- i.e. they are our "properties", or, to use a more Latinate term, our proprium. We have to change those -- get rid of the evil loves and false ideas, and invite good loves and true ideas from the Lord -- building a new understanding and a new will.
