3274. 'These are the years of Ishmael's life' means a state representative of the Lord's spiritual kingdom, portrayed by means of Ishmael. This is clear from the meaning of 'years' and 'life' at this point as representative states, dealt with above in 3251, and from the representation of 'Ishmael' as the Lord's spiritual kingdom, dealt with in 2699, 3263, 3268.
