1 Mose 18:3

Study

       

3 und sprach: HERR, habe ich Gnade funden vor deinen Augen, so gehe nicht vor deinem Knechte über.

from the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg

 

Arcana Coelestia #2215

Studere hoc loco

2215. Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not, for she was afraid. That this signifies that human rational truth wished to excuse itself, because it observed that it was not such as it ought to be, is evident without explication.
