3331. Verse 34. And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up and went away; and Esau despised the birthright. “And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils,” signifies the good of life gifted with the good of truth and the good of doctrinal things; “and he did eat and drink,” signifies appropriation; “and rose up,” signifies elevation thence; “and went away,” signifies life; “and Esau despised the birthright,” signifies that in the meantime the good of life made no account of priority.
