1341. Verse 13 And Arpachshad lived after he begot Shelah four hundred and three years; and he begot sons and daughters.

'Arpachshad lived after he begot Shelah four hundred and three years' means duration and state, 'Arpachshad' here, as previously, meaning knowledge, and 'Shelah' that which is the offspring of knowledge. 'And he begot sons and daughters' means matters of doctrine.
