1 σαρα δε η γυνη αβραμ ουκ ετικτεν αυτω ην δε αυτη παιδισκη αιγυπτια η ονομα αγαρ

2 ειπεν δε σαρα προς αβραμ ιδου συνεκλεισεν με κυριος του μη τικτειν εισελθε ουν προς την παιδισκην μου ινα τεκνοποιησης εξ αυτης υπηκουσεν δε αβραμ της φωνης σαρας

3 και λαβουσα σαρα η γυνη αβραμ αγαρ την αιγυπτιαν την εαυτης παιδισκην μετα δεκα ετη του οικησαι αβραμ εν γη χανααν και εδωκεν αυτην αβραμ τω ανδρι αυτης αυτω γυναικα

4 και εισηλθεν προς αγαρ και συνελαβεν και ειδεν οτι εν γαστρι εχει και ητιμασθη η κυρια εναντιον αυτης

5 ειπεν δε σαρα προς αβραμ αδικουμαι εκ σου εγω δεδωκα την παιδισκην μου εις τον κολπον σου ιδουσα δε οτι εν γαστρι εχει ητιμασθην εναντιον αυτης κριναι ο θεος ανα μεσον εμου και σου

6 ειπεν δε αβραμ προς σαραν ιδου η παιδισκη σου εν ταις χερσιν σου χρω αυτη ως αν σοι αρεστον η και εκακωσεν αυτην σαρα και απεδρα απο προσωπου αυτης

7 ευρεν δε αυτην αγγελος κυριου επι της πηγης του υδατος εν τη ερημω επι της πηγης εν τη οδω σουρ

8 και ειπεν αυτη ο αγγελος κυριου αγαρ παιδισκη σαρας ποθεν ερχη και που πορευη και ειπεν απο προσωπου σαρας της κυριας μου εγω αποδιδρασκω

9 ειπεν δε αυτη ο αγγελος κυριου αποστραφητι προς την κυριαν σου και ταπεινωθητι υπο τας χειρας αυτης

10 και ειπεν αυτη ο αγγελος κυριου πληθυνων πληθυνω το σπερμα σου και ουκ αριθμηθησεται απο του πληθους

11 και ειπεν αυτη ο αγγελος κυριου ιδου συ εν γαστρι εχεις και τεξη υιον και καλεσεις το ονομα αυτου ισμαηλ οτι επηκουσεν κυριος τη ταπεινωσει σου

12 ουτος εσται αγροικος ανθρωπος αι χειρες αυτου επι παντας και αι χειρες παντων επ' αυτον και κατα προσωπον παντων των αδελφων αυτου κατοικησει

13 και εκαλεσεν αγαρ το ονομα κυριου του λαλουντος προς αυτην συ ο θεος ο επιδων με οτι ειπεν και γαρ ενωπιον ειδον οφθεντα μοι

14 ενεκεν τουτου εκαλεσεν το φρεαρ φρεαρ ου ενωπιον ειδον ιδου ανα μεσον καδης και ανα μεσον βαραδ

15 και ετεκεν αγαρ τω αβραμ υιον και εκαλεσεν αβραμ το ονομα του υιου αυτου ον ετεκεν αυτω αγαρ ισμαηλ

16 αβραμ δε ην ογδοηκοντα εξ ετων ηνικα ετεκεν αγαρ τον ισμαηλ τω αβραμ

1954. Thou God seest me. That this signifies influx, is evident from what has just been said. Mental view from the higher into the lower, or what is the same, from the interior into the exterior, is termed influx, for it takes place by influx; just as in the case of man’s interior sight: unless this continually inflowed into his outer sight, which is that of the eye, this latter could not possibly apprehend and discern any object; for it is the interior sight which, through the eye, apprehends the things which the eye sees; and by no means is it the eye, although it so appears. From all this we may also see how much that man is in the fallacies of the senses who believes that the eye sees; when in fact it is the sight of his spirit, which is the interior sight, that sees through the eye.

[2] Spirits who were with me have seen through my eyes things in the world as well as I did (concerning which see n. 1880); yet some of them who were still in the fallacies of the senses supposed that they had seen through their own eyes; but they were shown that it was not so, for when my eyes were closed they saw nothing in this atmospheric world. It is the very same with man: it is his spirit that sees, not his eye: the spirit sees through the eye. The same thing may be seen from dreams, in which a man sometimes sees as in the day. The case is the very same in regard to this interior sight, or that of the spirit; this again does not see from itself, but from a still more interior sight, or that of man’s rational. Nay, neither does this see of itself, but does so from a still more internal sight, which is that of the internal man (concerning which, n. 1940). And even this does not see of itself, for it is the Lord who sees through the internal man, and He is the Only One who sees because He is the Only One who lives, and He it is who gives man the ability to see, and this in such a manner that it appears to him as if he saw of himself. Such is the case with influx.
