3621. 'If Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Heth' means that natural truth ought not to be associated with them. This is clear from the meaning of 'taking a wife' as being associated, and from the meaning of 'the daughters of Heth' as affections for truth from a non-genuine source, dealt with just above in 3620, or what amounts to the same, as [mere] truth, for truth devoid of affection is not joined, 3066, 3336. What is implied in all this is clear from what has been stated just above about the daughters of Heth.
