1 Mose 34:7

Study

       

7 Und die Söhne Jakobs kamen vom Felde, sobald sie es hörten; und die Männer kränkten sich und ergrimmten sehr, weil er eine Schandtat in Israel verübt hatte, bei der Tochter Jakobs zu liegen; und also sollte nicht geschehen.

4452. 'And the land shall be before you; dwell' means the Church which would be one. This is clear from the meaning of 'the land' as the Church, dealt with in 566, 662, 1066, 1067, 1413, 1607, 3355, 4447, and from the meaning of 'dwelling with us' as living together, dealt with immediately above in 4451, thus that the Church would be one.

4451. 'And you shall dwell with us' means life. This is clear from the meaning of 'dwelling' as living, dealt with in 1293, 3384, 3613, and so 'dwelling with us' means living together and making one Church.
