1747. Verse 23. That from a thread even to the thong of a shoe, I will not take aught that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have enriched Abram. “That from a thread even to the thong of a shoe,” signifies all natural and corporeal things that were unclean; “I will not take aught that is thine,” signifies that in celestial love here was nothing of the kind; “lest thou shouldest say, I have enriched Abram,” signifies that the Lord derived no strength whatever from such things.
