3925. 'Bilhah, Rachel's servant-girl, conceived again and bore' means reception and acknowledgement. This is clear from the meaning of 'conceiving' as reception, and from the meaning of 'bearing' as acknowledgement, dealt with above in 3919; and also from the meaning of 'a servant-girl' as a subservient means, also dealt with above, in 3913, 3917. For here the second subservient general means by which the internal man is joined to the external is the subject.
