1993. Walk thou before Me. That this signifies the truth of faith, is evident from the signification of “walking,” as being to live according to the truth of faith (see n. 519); and also from the signification of a “way” in relation to which walking is predicated, as being truth (see n. 627)

1 Balaam said to Balak, "Build me here seven altars, and prepare me here seven bulls and seven rams."

2 Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bull and a ram.

3 Balaam said to Balak, "Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go: perhaps Yahweh will come to meet me; and whatever he shows me I will tell you." He went to a bare height.
