2513. That 'God came to Abimelech' means the Lord's perception regarding the doctrine of faith is clear from the meaning of 'God's coming' and from the meaning of 'Abimelech'; for 'God's coming' plainly means perceiving, since perception is nothing else than a Divine coming or influx into man's ability to understand, and 'Abimelech' means the doctrine of faith, as shown above in 2504, 2509, 2510.
