4152. Verses 33-35 And Laban came into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the tent of both servant-girls, and did not find them. And he went out of Leah's tent and came into Rachel's tent. And Rachel had taken the teraphim and put them in the camel's straw, and sat on them. And Laban felt around all the tent and did not find them. And she said to her father, Let there not be any anger in my lord's eyes, for I cannot rise up before you, for the way of women is upon me. And he searched and did not find the teraphim.

'Laban came into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the tent of both servant-girls, and did not find them' means that within the holiness which these possessed no such truths were present. 'And he went out of Leah's tent and came into Rachel's tent' means the holiness of that truth. 'And Rachel had taken the teraphim' means interior natural truths which came from the Divine. 'And put them in the camel's straw' means in facts. 'And sat on them' means that they were interior. 'And Laban felt around all the tent and did not find them' means that what was his own was not there. 'And she said to her father' means to good. 'Let there not be any anger in my lord's eyes, for I cannot rise up before you' means that they are unable to be revealed. 'For the way of women is upon me' means that as yet they were among things that were unclean. 'And he searched and did not find the teraphim' means that they were not his.
