412. Verse 20. And Adah bare Jabal; he was the father of the dweller in tents, and of cattle. By “Adah” is signified, as before, the mother of the celestial and spiritual things of faith; by “Jabal, the father of the dweller in tents, and of cattle” is signified doctrine concerning the holy things of love, and the goods thence derived, which are celestial.
