4068. 'And Jehovah said to Jacob' means the Lord's perception from the Divine. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' in historical narratives of the Word as perceiving, dealt with in 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2619, 2862, 3395, 3509; and 'Jehovah' means the Lord, see 1343, 1736, 1793, 2921, 3023, 3035. From all this it is evident that 'Jehovah said' means the Lord's perception from the Divine.

1819. 'He said, O Lord Jehovih' means a conversing, so to speak, of the Interior Man with the Internal Man. This is clear from what was stated in the previous verse at the words 'Jehovah said to him', and also from what was stated in verse 2 of this chapter about the Lord Jehovih, as meaning a conversing of the Interior Man with the Internal Man, or Jehovah, especially when He was undergoing temptation.
