4010. 'And he put three days' journey between himself and Jacob' means that their state was one in which they were totally set apart. This is clear from the meaning of 'putting a journey' as being set apart; from the meaning of 'three' as that which is last, completed, or the end, dealt with in 1825, 2788, and so is totally set apart; and from the meaning of 'days' as states, dealt with in 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, 2788, 3462.
