1 Бог сказал Иакову: встань, пойди в Вефиль и живи там, и устрой там жертвенник Богу, явившемуся тебе, когда ты бежал от лица Исава, брата твоего.

4595. 'And Jacob set up a pillar over her grave' means the holiness of the spiritual truth that was to be raised up again there. This is clear from the meaning of 'a pillar' as the holiness of truth, dealt with in 4580; in this case of spiritual truth stemming from the celestial, since that truth is the subject; and from the meaning of 'a grave' as resurrection, dealt with in 2916, 2917, 3256.
