Arcana Coelestia #2919
2919. 'The sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him' means a reciprocal state existing with members of the new Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'answering', when assent is given to that which is requested, as that which is reciprocal, and from the meaning of 'the sons of Heth' as those with whom the new spiritual Church existed, dealt with above in 2913.
Arcana Coelestia #6903
6903. 'Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews, has come to meet us' means the Lord's Divine in the Church, and what was commanded by Him. This is clear from the meaning of 'the Hebrews' as the Church, dealt with in 5136, 6675, 6684 (the reason why' Jehovah God' is the Lord's Divine is that in the Word none other than the Lord is meant by 'Jehovah', 1776, 2921, 3023, 3035, 5041, 5667, 6303); and from the meaning here of 'coming to meet' as what was commanded, since 'coming to meet' is used here to mean that He spoke to them and gave them orders. The fact that this is what is implied by 'has come to meet' is clear from the consideration that it no longer states the actual words spoken by Him but goes on immediately to express what had been commanded by Him.
