3124. 'Jehovah has led me to the house of my master's brethren' means to good, the source of truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'brethren's house' from which Rebekah came, as good from which truth springs. For 'the house of the brethren' means good, here the good from which truth springs, as is clear from the meaning of 'a house' as good, dealt with in 2233, 2234, 2559, and of 'brethren' as the source of that good from which truth springs, represented by Rebekah.

2234. That 'the way' means doctrine is clear from the meaning of 'a way'. 'A way' in the Word is used in reference to truths, because truths lead to good and go forth from good, as is made clear from the places quoted in Volume One, in 627. And because a way is used in reference to truths, 'a way' is doctrine since doctrine taken as a whole embraces all those things which lead to good, that is, to charity.
