Only on this condition will we consent to you. If you will be as we are, that every male of you be circumcised;
Genesis 34:15
Arcana Coelestia # 4466
4466. 'Then we will give our daughters to you, and your daughters we will take to ourselves' means a joining together in this manner. This is clear from what has been stated above about marriage, in 4434, namely that 'marriage' in the spiritual sense means good and truth joined together. For 'giving our daughters to you and taking your daughters to ourselves' describes an intermarrying.
