2512. Verse 3. And God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou wilt die because of the woman whom thou hast taken, for she is married to a husband. “God came to Abimelech,” signifies the Lord’s perception concerning the doctrine of faith; “in a dream by night,” signifies that it was obscure; “and said to him,” signifies thought thence; “Behold, thou wilt die because of the woman,” signifies that the doctrine of faith would be null and void if the rational were consulted in regard to its contents; “for she is married to a husband,” signifies that the doctrine of true faith, and the things therein, are conjoined with the celestial.
