2622. 'Sarah to Abraham' means from [the Lord's] Divine spiritual united to His Divine celestial. This is clear from the representation of 'Sarah' as the Divine spiritual or Divine Truth, dealt with in 1468, 1901, 2063, 2065, 2172, 2173, 2198, 2507, and from the representation of 'Abraham' as the Divine celestial or Divine Good, dealt with in 1989, 2011, 2172, 2198, 2501. Regarding the Divine spiritual united to the Divine celestial, see what has been stated above in 2618.
