1814. Verse 7 And He said to him, I am Jehovah, who brought you forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to inherit.

'He said to him, I am Jehovah' means the Lord's Internal Man which is Jehovah, from whom perception came. 'Who brought you forth out of Ur of the Chaldeans' means the first state of the External Man. 'To give you this land to inherit' means the Lord's kingdom, of which He alone is the Possessor.
