3112. 'And she said to him, I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milkah, whom she bore to Nahor' means the whole origin of it, that is to say, of the affection for truth. This is clear from the representation of 'Bethuel', and also of 'Milkah and Nahor', as the origin of the affection for truth which Rebekah represented, see 3078.

3115. 'And a place to spend the night' means that state. This is clear from the meaning of 'a place' as a state, dealt with in 2625, 2837, and from the meaning of 'spending the night' as abiding or having a resting-place, dealt with in 2330. Here therefore the state of the affection for truth, as to its origin, is meant. Its origin is described by the things represented by Bethuel, Milkah, and Nahor, and its relationships by Laban who is mentioned later on. Since the origin of that affection is obscure its state is therefore meant by 'a place to spend the night', as also above in 3111.
