8651. 'And the name of the other was Eliezer' means the essential nature of the good of truth of those within the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'name' and 'calling the name' as the essential nature, as above in 8650. The reason why the essential nature of the good of truth is meant is that the two sons mean forms of the good of truth, 8649. The meaning here - that the essential nature of this form of the good of truth is that of those within the Church - is evident from the words spoken by Moses regarding this son when he was born, which were, Because the God of my father was my help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh. It is also evident from the fact that the essential nature of the good of truth meant by the name of the first son - Gershom - is that of those outside the Church, 8650.
