5 δεν μοι ειπεν αυτος, Αδελφη μου ειναι; και αυτη παλιν, αυτη ειπεν, Αδελφος μου ειναι. Εν ευθυτητι της καρδιας μου και εν καθαροτητι των χειρων μου επραξα τουτο.

2499. Verse 1 And Abraham travelled from there towards the land of the south, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.

'Abraham travelled from there towards the land of the south' means the Lord's advances in goods and truths of faith, 'Abraham' being the Lord during that state. 'And dwelt between Kadesh and Shur' means His state specifically, 'Kadesh' being the affection for interior truth coming from rational concepts, 'Shur' the affection for exterior truth deriving from factual knowledge. 'And he sojourned in Gerar' means consequent instruction in the spiritual things of faith.
