3201. Verses 64-65. And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and saw Isaac, and she alighted from off the camel. And she said unto the servant, What man is this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant said, It is my lord. And she took a veil and covered herself. “Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and saw Isaac,” signifies the reciprocal attention of the affection of truth; “and she alighted from off the camel,” signifies the separation thereof from the memory-knowledges in the natural man at the perception of rational good; “and she said unto the servant,” signifies exploration from the Divine natural; “what man is this that walketh in the field to meet us?” signifies concerning the rational which was in good alone; “and the servant said, It is my lord,” signifies acknowledgment. “And she took a veil and covered herself,” signifies the appearances of truth.
