1814. Verse 7. And He said unto him, I am Jehovah, who led thee forth out of Ur of the Chaldees to give thee this land to inherit it. “He said unto him, I am Jehovah,” signifies the Lord’s internal man, which was Jehovah, and from which He had perception; “who led thee forth out of Ur of the Chaldees,” signifies the first state of the external man; “to give thee this land to inherit it,” signifies the Lord’s kingdom, of which He alone is the possessor.
