4090. 'Where you anointed a pillar' means where the good of truth exists, and the boundary of it. This is clear from the meaning of 'a pillar' as a holy boundary and so the ultimate degree of order, and therefore as truth, dealt with in 3727, and from the meaning of 'anointing', or pouring oil, as Jacob did, over the head of the pillar, as making truth good, dealt with in 3728.
