2170. Verse 6 And Abraham hastened towards the tent to Sarah, and said, Take quickly three measures of meal of fine flour, knead it, and make cakes.

'Abraham hastened towards the tent to Sarah' means the Lord's rational good joined to His truth - 'Abraham' here being the Lord in that state as regards good, 'Sarah' as regards truth, 'the tent' as regards the holiness of love. 'And he said' means as it related to the Lord's state of perception at that time. 'Take quickly three measures of meal of fine flour, knead it, and make cakes' means the celestial existence of His love in that state - 'three' meaning that which is holy, 'meal of fine flour' the spiritual and celestial ingredients of the rational which were present at that time with the Lord, 'cakes' the same when both had been joined together.
