1556. 'Even to the place where his tent had been before' means towards the holy things which were there before He had been endowed with cognitions. This is clear from the meaning of 'a tent' as the holy things of faith, dealt with already in 414, 1452, and from what has just been stated. Thus it was an advance towards the celestial things which the Lord already possessed before He was endowed with knowledge and cognitions, as is clear from what is said in verse 8 of the previous chapter, 'And Abram removed from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent'. This happened before he travelled to Egypt, that is, before the Lord was endowed with knowledge and cognitions.
