2512. Verse 3 And God came to Abimelech in a dream in the night, and said to him, Behold, you will die because of the woman whom you have taken, for she is married to a husband.

'God came to Abimelech' means the Lord's perception regarding the doctrine of faith. 'In a dream in the night' means a perception that was obscure. 'And said to him' means thought springing from this. 'Behold, you will die because of the woman' means that the doctrine of faith would be ruined if the rational were consulted regarding the contents of that doctrine. 'For she is married to a husband' means that the doctrine of true faith is spiritual, and the contents of it are joined to the celestial.
