1187. 'He built Nineveh, and Rehoboth city, and Calah' means that in this way they formulated for themselves doctrinal teachings concerning faith. This is clear from the meaning of 'Nineveh and Rehoboth and Calah', to be dealt with in the paragraphs following immediately after this, and from the meaning of 'a city' in the Word, as doctrine, true or heretical, as shown already in 402.

10 I, Yahweh, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.

11 As the partridge that sits on [eggs] which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right; in the midst of his days they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool.
