/ 10837  
  

2013. I will make thee fruitful very exceedingly. That this signifies the fruitfulness of good to infinitude, is evident from the signification of being “made fruitful,” as being predicated of good (explained before, n. 43, 55, 913, 983); and because it is said “very exceedingly,” and the Lord is treated of, it signifies fruitfulness to infinitude.
