Arcana Coelestia # 3966
3966. And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her. That this signifies foresight and providence, is evident from the signification of “remembering,” when as here predicated of God, as being foresight, for “remembering” is looking toward anyone; and that in the supreme sense “to see” is foresight may be seen above (n. 3863); and from the signification of “hearkening to” anyone, when predicated of God, as being providence (n. 3869).
Isaiah 55:2-3
2
Why do you spend money for that which is not bread? and your labor for that which doesn't satisfy? listen diligently to me, and eat you that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
3
Turn your ear, and come to me; hear, and your soul shall live: and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
