15 Men han faldt fra og sendte sine Bud til Ægypten, for at de skulde give ham Heste og Folk i Mængde. Mon det lykkes ham? Mon den, der bærer sig således ad, slipper godt derfra? Skal den, der bryder en Pagt, slippe fra det?

Commentary

 

Branch

  

In Matthew 24:32, the branch signifies affection, for affection springs and flourishes from good as a branch springs from its trunk.

In Malachi 4:1, the branch denotes truth.

In Isaiah 19:15, a branch signifies spiritual truth, and bulrushes things that are sensual and worldly.

In Exodus 25:33, this signifies the power of truth from good—for a branch is like the arms of a man. (Arcana Coelestia 9555, 9558)
