3458. 'And in the morning they rose up early' means a state of enlightenment. This is clear from the meaning of 'the morning' and 'rising up early' as a state of enlightenment. For by 'the morning' and 'the dawn' in the highest sense is meant the Lord, and in the internal sense the celestial element of His love, and also from this the state of peace, see 2333, 2405, 2540, 2780. And 'rising up' means in the internal sense a raising up, 2401, 2785, 2912, 2927, 3171. From these meanings it is evident that 'in the morning he rose up early' means a state of enlightenment.

3456. 'He made a feast for them' means dwelling together. This is clear from the meaning of 'a feast' as dwelling together, dealt with in 2341.
