και ελαλησεν προς αυτους αβρααμ λεγων ει εχετε τη ψυχη υμων ωστε θαψαι τον νεκρον μου απο προσωπου μου ακουσατε μου και λαλησατε περι εμου εφρων τω του σααρ
Genesis第23章:8
Arcana Coelestia#2829
2829. As regards 'Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw' meaning the Lord's thought and insight received from the Divine, see above in 2789 where the same words occur. This thought and insight from the Divine is a thought and insight into every single thing that will ever take place, in keeping with the Divine Providence.
Arcana Coelestia#2789
2789. 'And Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw' means thought and insight received from the Divine. This is clear from the meaning of 'the eyes' as intelligence, dealt with in 2701, so that 'lifting up the eyes' means raising one's intelligence, thus thinking; and from the meaning of 'seeing' as receiving insight from the Divine, since this experience is used to refer to the Lord.
