SWORD version by Tero Favorin (tero at favorin dot com)
3852. 'And he served with him yet another seven years' means holy diligent effort. This is clear from the meaning of 'serving' as diligent effort, dealt with in 3824, 3846, and from the meaning of 'seven' as that which is holy, dealt with in 395, 433, 716, 881, 3824. The expression 'holy diligent effort' is used for that effort by means of which internal truths are joined to good, for internal truths in every case regard the Lord and are joined to a person by means of love to Him. This love is holiness itself.
