32 καὶ εἶπεν μή τι κύριε ἐὰν λαλήσω ἔτι ἅπαξ ἐὰν δὲ εὑρεθῶσιν ἐκεῖ δέκα καὶ εἶπεν οὐ μὴ ἀπολέσω ἕνεκεν τῶν δέκα

2197. Verse 11. And Abraham and Sarah were old, entering into days; it had ceased to be with Sarah in the way as of women. “Abraham and Sarah were old,” signifies the Human with the Lord, that it should be put off; “entering into days,” signifies that the time was come; “it had ceased to be with Sarah in the way as of women,” signifies the state of rational truth, that it could no longer remain so.
