가로되 `사래의 여종 하갈아 네가 어디서 왔으며 어디로 가느냐 ?' 그가 가로되 `나는 나의 여주인 사래를 피하여 도망하나이다'
Arcana Coelestia #1918
1918. Verse 6. And Abram said unto Sarai, Behold thy handmaid is in thy hand, do to her that which is good in thine eyes; and Sarai humbled her, and she fled from her face. “Abram said unto Sarai,” signifies perception; “Behold thy handmaid is in thy hand,” signifies that the rational that was conceived was in the power of truth adjoined to good; “do to her that which is good in thine eyes,” signifies absolute control; “and Sarai humbled her,” signifies subjugation; “and she fled from her face,” signifies the indignation of this rational that was first conceived.
