That this signifies when the first conjunction had been thus effected, is evident from the signification of “blessing,” as being conjunction (see above, n. 3504, 3514, 3530, 3565, 3584); thus “as Isaac made an end of blessing” signifies when conjunction had been effected; that the first conjunction was with truth, represented by Jacob, is evident from what has been already said.

That this signifies disjunction, is evident from the signification of a “curse,” as being disjunction, or a turning away from good (n. 245, 379, 1423); and from the signification of a “blessing,” as being conjunction with good (n. 3504, 3514).
