42 Kui minuga ei oleks olnud mu isa Jumal, Aabrahami Jumal, Iisaki Kartus, siis oleksid sa mind nüüd tühje käsi ära saatnud. Jumal on näinud mu häda ja mu kätevaeva ja on eile öösel teinud otsuse.'

4082. 'And it happened, when the flock came on heat' means an intense desire to be joined together. This is clear from the meaning of 'coming on heat' as an intense desire and the effect produced from this, dealt with in 4018, 4019, and so that those goods and truths should be joined together.
