1716. Verse 16 And he brought back all the acquisitions, and also Lot his brother and his acquisitions he brought back, and the women and the people as well.

'He brought back all the acquisitions' means that the Interior Man brought all things in the External Man back into a state of agreement. 'And also Lot his brother and his acquisitions he brought back' means the External Man and all that belonged to it. 'The women and the people' means both goods and truths.
