3609. 'And she [sent and] summoned Jacob her younger son, and said to him' means a state in which the affection for truth discerned from an influx coming by way of Divine Truth.... This is clear from the representation of Rebekah - the one who 'summoned' and 'said' - as the Divine Truth of the Lord's Divine Rational joined to the Divine Good of that Divine Rational; from the representation of 'Jacob' as natural truth or the affection for truth there, dealt with already; and from the meaning of 'summoning him' and 'saying to him' as a state of perception, also dealt with already, here a state of discernment since the Natural is the subject.
