14 Wenn nun eine Dirne kommt, zu der ich spreche: Neige deinen Krug und laß mich trinken, und sie sprechen wird: Trinke, ich will deine Kamele auch tränken, daß sie die sei, die du deinem Diener Isaak bescheret habest, und ich daran erkenne, daß du Barmherzigkeit an meinem HERRN getan hast.

3180. 'And they called Rebekah and said to her, Are you going to go with this man? And she said, I will go' means its full consent. This becomes clear from the sense resulting from the internal sense of the words, for her reply 'I will go' to the question put to her means that she consented fully. The full consent of truth comes when truth perceives within itself the image of good, and within good the replica of itself from which it springs.
