Genesis 27:29

Study

       

29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee; be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.

from the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg

3500. And go out to the field. That this signifies where there is good ground, is evident from the signification of “field,” as being the good of the church, also the good of doctrine (see n. 2971, 3196, 3310, 3317), thus good ground.
