4867. 'And he turned aside to her at the wayside' means that it associated itself because of what it was by nature. This is clear from the meaning of 'the way' as truth, dealt with in 627, 2333, 3123, 3142, 3477, and so in the contrary sense as falsity. Falsity is meant here because he supposed that she was a prostitute, by whom falsity is meant; see just above in 4865. For the same reason it is also said that 'he turned aside' at the wayside, for 'turning aside' is used in reference to falsity, 4815, 4816.
