3571. Verses 26-29. And Isaac his father said unto him, Come near I pray, and kiss me, my son. And he came near, and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his garments, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which Jehovah hath blessed. And God shall give thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fat things of the earth, and a multitude of corn and new wine. Peoples shall serve thee, and peoples shall bow down themselves to thee. Be thou a master to thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down themselves to thee; cursed are they that curse thee, and blessed are they that bless thee. “And Isaac his father said unto him, Come near I pray,” signifies a degree of perception still more interior; “and kiss me, my son” signifies whether it can be united; “and he came near, and kissed him,” signifies presence and unition; “and he smelled the smell of his garments,” signifies that which was grateful from the truth of good which he perceived; “and blessed him,” signifies conjunction thus; “and said, See, the smell of my son,” signifies that which was grateful from the truth of good; “is as the smell of a field,” signifies as from good ground out of which is truth; “which Jehovah hath blessed,” signifies that it is multiplied and made fruitful from the Divine; “and God shall give thee of the dew of heaven,” signifies from Divine truth; “and of the fat things of the earth,” signifies from Divine good; “and a multitude of corn,” signifies the derivative natural good; “and new wine,” signifies the derivative natural truth; “peoples shall serve thee,” signifies the truths of the church, or spiritual churches; “and peoples shall bow down themselves to thee,” signifies the truths of good; “Be thou a master to thy brethren,” signifies the dominion at first appearing to be that of the affection of natural truth over the affections of natural good; “and let thy mother’s sons bow down themselves to thee,” signifies over all other affections of truth; “cursed are they that curse thee,” signifies that he who disjoins himself shall be disjoined; “and blessed are they that bless thee,” signifies that he who conjoins himself shall be conjoined.
