3663. 'Rise up' means provided it raised up that good from these. This is clear from the meaning of 'rising up' - whenever this is mentioned - as a phrase that implies some kind of raising up, dealt with in 2401, 2785, 2912, 2927, 3171. Here it is a raising up from such things as are meant by 'the daughters of Canaan' to such things as are meant by 'the daughters of Laban', dealt with below.
