Arcana Coelestia #4297
4297. 'And he blessed him there' means a joining to the Divine celestial-spiritual. This is clear from the meaning of 'blessing' as a joining together, dealt with in 3504, 3514, 3565, 3584, a joining to the Divine celestial-spiritual being meant here, as is clear from what has gone before concerning Jacob's being named Israel; for 'Israel' represents the Lord's Divine celestial-spiritual, 4286. What the celestial-spiritual is, see that same paragraph.
Arcana Coelestia #3514
3514. 'And I will bless you before Jehovah' means conjunction thereby. This is clear from the meaning of 'I will bless you' as an alliance to its own life, dealt with above in 3504. Here, because the words 'I will bless you before Jehovah' are used, conjunction is meant. The expression 'alliance' is used to refer to the communication of the truth of the natural with the good of the rational, but the expression 'conjunction' to refer to the communication of the good of the natural with the good of the rational. For a parallelism exists between God and man so far as celestial things, which are forms of good, are concerned, but not where spiritual things, which are forms of truth, are concerned, see 1832.
