1800. Verse 4. And behold the word of Jehovah came unto him, saying, This one shall not be thine heir; but he that shall go forth out of thy bowels shall be thine heir. “Behold the word of Jehovah came unto him,” signifies an answer: “saying, This one shall not be thine heir” signifies that what is external shall not be the heir of His kingdom; “but he that shall go forth out of thy bowels,” signifies those who are in love to Him and in love toward the neighbor; “he shall be thine heir,” signifies that they shall be made heirs.
