4437. 'Saying, Get me this girl for a wife' means that it wished to be joined to the affection for that truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'girl', who in this case is Dinah, as the affection for truth meant by 'Jacob's sons, her brothers' dealt with in 4427, 4433, and from the meaning of 'getting for a wife' as being joined together, dealt with just above in 4434.
