412. Verse 20 And Adah gave birth to Jabal. He was the father of the tent-dweller and of cattle.

'Adah' means, as previously, the mother of the celestial and spiritual things of faith. 'Jabal, the father of the tent-dweller and of cattle' means doctrine concerning the holy things of love, and goods deriving from these, which are celestial.
