3822. Verses 18-20. And Jacob loved Rachel; and he said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter. And Laban said, It is better that I should give her to thee than give her to another man; abide with me. And Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they were in his eyes as a few days for the love he had to her. “And Jacob loved Rachel,” signifies the love of good toward internal truth; “and he said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter,” signifies study, and at the same time a holy state, in order to be conjoined with internal truth; “and Laban said, It is better that I should give her to thee than give her to another man; abide with me,” signifies a means of conjunction through interior truth with that good; “and Jacob served seven years for Rachel,” signifies the accomplishment; “and they were in his eyes as a few days, for the love he had to her,” signifies a state of love.
