32
Jeg vil idag gå gjennem hele din hjord og skille ut alt som er flekket og spraglet og alt som er sort blandt fårene, og likeså alt som er spraglet og flekket blandt gjetene; og det skal være min lønn.
1 Mosebok 30:32
Arcana Coelestia #3953
3953. Verses 17-18 And God hearkened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son. And Leah said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my servant-girl to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
'God hearkened to Leah' means Divine love. 'And she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son' means reception and acknowledgement. 'And Leah said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my servant-girl to my husband' in the highest sense means Divine Good wedded to Truth, and Truth wedded to Good; in the internal sense heavenly conjugial love; and in the external sense mutual love. 'And she called his name Issachar' means the essential nature of it.
