5
ρεβεκκα δε ηκουσεν λαλουντος ισαακ προς ησαυ τον υιον αυτου επορευθη δε ησαυ εις το πεδιον θηρευσαι θηραν τω πατρι αυτου
Genesis 27:5
Arcana Coelestia #3568
3568. 'And he said, Bring it to me, and I will eat from my son's venison' means a desire to join natural truth to itself by means of good. This is clear from the meaning of 'eating' as joining together and making one's own, dealt with in 2187, 2343, 3168, 3513 (end), and from the meaning of 'my son's venison' as truth acquired from good, dealt with in 3309, 3501, 3508. The fact that a desire is meant is self-evident.
