3864. 'My affliction' - that is to say, 'Because Jehovah has seen it' - means a state of arriving at good. This is clear from the meaning of 'affliction' as temptation, dealt with in 1846. And because temptation is the means by which a person arrives at good 'my affliction' here means a state of moving on from truth which is external and of arriving at good which is internal.
