A child is a young boy or girl in the care of parents, older than a suckling or an infant, but not yet an adolescent. "Children" are sometimes used as a name for a large group of descendants of one person, such as the Children of Israel, or even all human beings as the Children of Men. A child represents innocence and charity, where innocence is the willingness to be led, and charity is love. This is why Jesus blessed them and suggested that we all become like children in order to enter heaven.

To go forth, as in Genesis 19:14, signifies to recede from, or not to remain in evil. To go near, as in Genesis 33:12, signifies adjunction and conjunction. To go forth, as in Genesis 41:45, denotes influx, or to flow in.
