14 Må därför min herre draga åstad före sin tjänare, så vill jag komma efter i sakta mak, i den mån boskapen, som drives framför mig, och barnen orka följa med, till dess jag kommer till min herre i Seir

4343. 'And over towards Rachel' means the deployment of interior truths beneath their own specific affection. This is clear from the representation of 'Rachel' as the affection for interior truth, dealt with in 3758, 3782, 3793, 3819. Consequently her 'sons' in this case are interior truths. See what has been stated immediately above in 4342 about interior truths.
