3672. 'To inherit the land of your sojournings' means the life acquired through receiving instruction. This is clear from the meaning of 'inheriting' as possessing the life of another, dealt with in 2658, 2851, in this case life received from the Divine, which is the meaning of the words that follow immediately after this, and from the meaning of 'sojournings' as forms of instruction, dealt with in 1463, 2025. 'The land' means where life is. A life acquired through receiving instruction, as referred to here, is the life of good springing from the truth which 'Jacob' represents here. For when a person lives according to the truths in which he receives instruction there is in him the life that is acquired through receiving instruction.
