3799. And watered the flock of Laban, his mother’s brother. That this signifies instruction, is evident from the signification of “watering the flock,” as being instruction (concerning which see above, n. 3772). The reason why Laban is here a third time called “his mother’s brother,” is that the origin is pointed out from which came the flock and Rachel, that is to say, from which come the doctrine and the affection of interior truth.
