1 Abraham pak opět pojal ženu jménem Ceturu.

2 Kterážto porodila jemu Zamrana, a Jeksana, a Madana, a Madiana, Jezbocha a Suecha.

3 Jeksan potom zplodil Sábu a Dedana. Synové pak Dedanovi byli: Assurim, a Latuzim, a Laomim.

4 Ale synové Madianovi: Efa, a Efer, a Enoch, a Abida, a Helda; všickni ti synové byli Cetury.

5 I dal Abraham Izákovi všecko, což měl.

6 Synům pak ženin svých dal Abraham dary, a odeslal je od Izáka syna svého, ještě živ jsa, k východu do země východní.

7 Tito pak jsou dnové let života Abrahamova, v nichž byl živ: Sto sedmdesáte a pět let.

8 I skonal a umřel Abraham v starosti dobré, stár jsa a plný dnů; a připojen jest k lidu svému.

9 Tedy pochovali ho Izák a Izmael synové jeho v jeskyni Machpelah, na poli Efrona, syna Sohar Hetejského, naproti Mamre,

10 Na tom poli, kteréž byl koupil Abraham od synů Het; tu pochován jest Abraham i Sára manželka jeho.

11 Po smrti pak Abrahamově požehnal Bůh Izákovi synu jeho, a bydlil Izák u studnice Živého vidoucího mne.

12 Tito jsou pak rodové Izmaele syna Abrahamova, jehož porodila Agar Egyptská, děvka Sářina, Abrahamovi.

13 A tato jsou jména synů Izmaelových, jimiž se jmenují po rodech svých: Prvorozený Izmaelův Nabajot, po něm Cedar, a Adbeel a Mabsan,

14 A Masma, a Dumah a Massa,

15 Hadar a Tema, Jetur, Nafis a Cedma.

16 Ti jsou synové Izmaelovi, a ta jména jejich, po vsech jejich, a po městech jejich, dvanáctero knížat po čeledech jejich.

17 (Bylo pak života Izmaelova sto třidceti a sedm let, i skonal; a umřev, připojen jest k lidu svému.)

18 A bydlili od Hevilah až do Sur, jenž jest proti Egyptu, když jdeš do Assyrie; před tváří všech bratří svých položil se.

19 Tito jsou také rodové Izáka syna Abrahamova: Abraham zplodil Izáka.

20 Byl pak Izák ve čtyřidcíti letech, když sobě vzal za manželku Rebeku, dceru Bathuele Syrského, z Pádan Syrské, sestru Lábana Syrského.

21 I modlil se Izák pokorně Hospodinu za manželku svou; nebo byla neplodná. A uslyšel jej Hospodin; a tak počala Rebeka manželka jeho.

22 A když se děti potiskali v životě jejím, řekla: Má-liť tak býti, proč jsem já počala? Šla tedy, aby se otázala Hospodina.

23 I řeklHospodin: Dva národové jsou v životě tvém, a dvůj lid z života tvého se rozdělí; lid pak jeden nad druhý bude silnější, a větší sloužiti bude menšímu.

24 A když se naplnili dnové její, aby porodila, a aj, blíženci byli v životě jejím.

25 I vyšel první ryšavý všecken, a jako oděv chlupatý; i nazvali jméno jeho Ezau.

26 Potom pak vyšel bratr jeho, a rukou svou držel Ezau za patu; pročež nazváno jest jméno jeho Jákob. A byl Izák v šedesáti letech, když ona je porodila.

27 A když dorostli ti děti, byl Ezau lovec umělý, chodě po polích; Jákob pak byl muž prostý a v staních bydlil.

28 I byl Izák laskav na Ezau, proto že z lovu jeho míval pokrm; ale Rebeka laskava byla na Jákoba.

29 Uvařil pak Jákob krmičku. Tedy Ezau přišel z pole zemdlený,

30 A řekl Jákobovi: Dej mi, prosím, jísti krmě té červené, nebo jsem umdlel. (Protož nazváno jest jméno jeho Edom.)

31 Odpověděl Jákob: Prodej mi dnes hned prvorozenství své.

32 I řekl Ezau: Aj, já k smrti se blížím, k čemuž mi tedy to prvorozenství?

33 Jákob: Přisáhni mi dnes hned. I přisáhl mu, a prodal prvorozenství své Jákobovi.

34 Tedy Jákob dal Ezauchovi chleba a té krmě z šocovice. Kterýžto jedl a pil, a vstav, odšel; a tak pohrdl Ezau prvorozenstvím.

3319. 'And Esau said to Jacob' means the Lord's perception from the good of the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as perceiving, dealt with in 1791, 1815, 1819, 1822, 1898, 1919, 2080, 2862, from the representation of 'Esau' as the Lord as regards the good of the Natural, dealt with in 3300, 3302, and in what follows shortly regarding Edom, and from the representation of 'Jacob' as the truth of the Natural, dealt with in 3305, regarding which there was perception.

Arcana Coelestia#1919

1919. That 'Abram said to Sarai' means perception is clear from what has been stated above in 1898. The perception which the Lord had was represented and is here meant by 'Abram said to Sarai', but thought which sprang from that perception is meant by 'Sarai said to Abram' - perception being the source of thought. The thought possessed by those who have perception comes from no other source. Yet perception is not the same as thought. To see that it is not the same, let conscience serve to 'illustrate this consideration.

[2] Conscience is a kind of general and thus obscure dictate which presents those things that flow in from the Lord by way of the heavens. Those things that flow in manifest themselves in the interior rational man where they are enveloped so to speak in cloud. This cloud is the product of appearances and illusions concerning the goods and truths of faith. Thought is, in truth, distinct and separate from conscience; yet it flows from conscience, for people who have conscience think and speak according to it. Indeed thought is scarcely anything more than a loosening of the various strands that make up conscience, and a converting of these into separate ideas which pass into words. Hence it is that the Lord holds those who have conscience in good thoughts regarding the neighbour and withholds them from evil thoughts. For this reason conscience can never exist except with people who love the neighbour as themselves and have good thoughts regarding the truths of faith. These considerations brought forward here show how conscience differs from thought, and from this one may recognize how perception differs from thought.

[3] The Lord's perception came directly from Jehovah, and so from Divine Good, whereas His thought came from intellectual truth and the affection for it, as stated above in 1904, 1914. No idea, not even an angelic one, is adequate as a means to apprehend the Lord's Divine perception, and thus this lies beyond description. The perception which angels have - described in 1384 and following paragraphs, 1394, 1395 - adds up to scarcely anything at all when contrasted with the perception that was the Lord's. Because the Lord's perception was Divine, it was a perception of everything in heaven; and being a perception of everything in heaven it was also a perception of everything on earth. For such is the order, interconnection, and influx that anyone who has a perception of heavenly things has a perception of earthly as well.

[4] But after the Lord's Human Essence had become united to His Divine Essence, and had become at the same time Jehovah, the Lord was then above what is called perception, for He was above the order which exists in the heavens and from there upon earth. It is Jehovah who is the source of order, and therefore one may say that Jehovah is Order itself, for from Himself He governs order, not merely, as is supposed, in the universal but also in its most specific singulars, for it is these singulars that make up the universal. To speak of the universal and then separate such singulars from it would be no different from speaking of a whole that has no parts within it and so no different from speaking of something consisting of nothing. Thus it is sheer falsity - a figment of the imagination, as it is called - to speak of the Lord's Providence as belonging to the universal but not to its specific singulars; for to provide and govern universally but not specifically is to provide and govern absolutely nothing. This is true philosophically, yet, strange to say, philosophers themselves, including the more eminent, understand this matter in a different way and think in a different way.
