41 Ja Eesau alkoi vihata Jaakobia siunauksen tähden, jolla hänen isänsä oli hänet siunannut; ja Eesau ajatteli itsekseen: "Pian tulee aika, jolloin suremme isäämme; silloin minä tapan veljeni Jaakobin".

3583. 'And your mother's sons will bow down to you' means over all other affections for truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'sons' also as truths, dealt with in 489, 491, 533, 1147, 2623, 3373, and from the meaning of 'mother' as the affection for spiritual truth - therefore as the Church, for the Church exists from truth and the affection for this, and is given the name 'mother', dealt with in 289, 2691, 2717.
