2668. Verse 13 And also, the son of the servant-girl I will make into a nation, because he is your seed.

'Also, the son of the servant-girl I will make into a nation' means the spiritual Church which was to receive the good of faith. 'Because he is your seed' means that from the Lord's Divine Human salvation is available to them also.
