Arcana Coelestia＃3205
3205. 'Who is that man there walking in the field to meet us?' means regarding the Rational immersed in good alone, that is to say, an investigation regarding it. This is clear from what has been stated above about Isaac's coming out to meditate in the field, by which is meant a state of the Rational immersed in good, see 3196. Here the rational is meant by 'that man', and being immersed in good by 'walking' - that is to say, by meditating - 'in the field'. 'To meet us' means so as to be joined together.
Apostelgeschichte 7:4
4
Da ging er aus der Chaldäer Lande und wohnete in Haran. Und von dannen, da sein Vater gestorben war, brachte er ihn herüber in dies Land, darinnen ihr nun wohnet.
