1601. Verse 14. And Jehovah said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up, I pray, thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward. “Jehovah said unto Abram,” signifies that Jehovah spoke thus to the Lord; “after that Lot was separated from him,” signifies when the cupidities of the external man had been removed so as not to impede; “Lift up, I pray, thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art,” signifies the state in which the Lord then was, from which He could perceive things that were to come; “northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward,” signifies all men, as many as there are in the universe.
