5898. 'And for the bestowal of life on you' means the spiritual life from there that is bestowed on the truths in the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'bestowing life' as spiritual life, dealt with above in 5890. For spiritual life is gained entirely from remnants, which is why the words 'the spiritual life from there' are used. And because they are the source from which that life is obtained, the reference to 'a remnant' is followed immediately by the words 'for the bestowal of life on you', that is to say, on the truths in the natural, which are represented by Jacob's sons, 5403, 5419, 5427, 5458, 5512.
