23
At sinabi sa kaniya ng Panginoon, Dalawang bansa ay nasa iyong bahay-bata, At dalawang bayan ay papaghihiwalayin mula sa iyong tiyan: At ang isang bayan ay magiging malakas kaysa isang bayan; At ang matanda ay maglilingkod sa bata.
Genesis 25:23
Arcana Coelestia # 3331
3331. Verse 34 And Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil pottage; and he ate, and drank, and he rose up, and went. And Esau despised the birthright.
'Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil pottage' means that the good of life was given the good of truth and the good of doctrine. 'And he ate, and drank' means taking to oneself. 'And he rose up' means a consequent raising up. 'And went' means life. 'And Esau despised the birthright' means that the good of life did not in the meantime attach any importance at all to priority of place.
