Son (human)
'A son,' as in Genesis 5:28, signifies the rise of a new church. 'A son,'
In Genesis 24:3, this signifies the Lord's rationality regarding good.
In Genesis 30:7, this signifies a general truth.
In Genesis 38:4, this signifies evil and something idolatrous.
"Sons" are individual "truths," or concepts of how to do specific good things. This general representation is colored in by context. For instance, since Abraham represents the Lord's own desire for good when he lived as the human Jesus, and Sarah represents the truth that describes that desire for good, their son Isaac represents the specific ideas springing from that union called the Divine Rational. As with all things, "son" can also be used in the negative, meaning falsity that springs from evil.
Arcana Coelestia # 3924
3924. Verses 7-8 And Bilhah, Rachel's servant-girl, conceived again and born a second son to Jacob. And Rachel said, With the wrestlings of God I have wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed. And she called his name Naphtali.
'Bilhah, Rachel's servant-girl, conceived again and bore' means here, as previously, reception and acknowledgement. 'A second son to Jacob' means a second general truth. 'And Rachel said, With the wrestlings of God I have wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed' in the highest sense means [the Lord's] own power, in the internal sense temptation in which a person overcomes, in the external sense resistance offered by the natural man. 'And she called his name Naphtali' means the essential nature of it.
