1 και εκινησεν εκειθεν αβρααμ εις γην προς λιβα και ωκησεν ανα μεσον καδης και ανα μεσον σουρ και παρωκησεν εν γεραροις

2 ειπεν δε αβρααμ περι σαρρας της γυναικος αυτου οτι αδελφη μου εστιν εφοβηθη γαρ ειπειν οτι γυνη μου εστιν μηποτε αποκτεινωσιν αυτον οι ανδρες της πολεως δι' αυτην απεστειλεν δε αβιμελεχ βασιλευς γεραρων και ελαβεν την σαρραν

3 και εισηλθεν ο θεος προς αβιμελεχ εν υπνω την νυκτα και ειπεν ιδου συ αποθνησκεις περι της γυναικος ης ελαβες αυτη δε εστιν συνωκηκυια ανδρι

4 αβιμελεχ δε ουχ ηψατο αυτης και ειπεν κυριε εθνος αγνοουν και δικαιον απολεις

5 ουκ αυτος μοι ειπεν αδελφη μου εστιν και αυτη μοι ειπεν αδελφος μου εστιν εν καθαρα καρδια και εν δικαιοσυνη χειρων εποιησα τουτο

6 ειπεν δε αυτω ο θεος καθ' υπνον καγω εγνων οτι εν καθαρα καρδια εποιησας τουτο και εφεισαμην εγω σου του μη αμαρτειν σε εις εμε ενεκεν τουτου ουκ αφηκα σε αψασθαι αυτης

7 νυν δε αποδος την γυναικα τω ανθρωπω οτι προφητης εστιν και προσευξεται περι σου και ζηση ει δε μη αποδιδως γνωθι οτι αποθανη συ και παντα τα σα

8 και ωρθρισεν αβιμελεχ το πρωι και εκαλεσεν παντας τους παιδας αυτου και ελαλησεν παντα τα ρηματα ταυτα εις τα ωτα αυτων εφοβηθησαν δε παντες οι ανθρωποι σφοδρα

9 και εκαλεσεν αβιμελεχ τον αβρααμ και ειπεν αυτω τι τουτο εποιησας ημιν μη τι ημαρτομεν εις σε οτι επηγαγες επ' εμε και επι την βασιλειαν μου αμαρτιαν μεγαλην εργον ο ουδεις ποιησει πεποιηκας μοι

10 ειπεν δε αβιμελεχ τω αβρααμ τι ενιδων εποιησας τουτο

11 ειπεν δε αβρααμ ειπα γαρ αρα ουκ εστιν θεοσεβεια εν τω τοπω τουτω εμε τε αποκτενουσιν ενεκεν της γυναικος μου

12 και γαρ αληθως αδελφη μου εστιν εκ πατρος αλλ' ουκ εκ μητρος εγενηθη δε μοι εις γυναικα

13 εγενετο δε ηνικα εξηγαγεν με ο θεος εκ του οικου του πατρος μου και ειπα αυτη ταυτην την δικαιοσυνην ποιησεις επ' εμε εις παντα τοπον ου εαν εισελθωμεν εκει ειπον εμε οτι αδελφος μου εστιν

14 ελαβεν δε αβιμελεχ χιλια διδραχμα προβατα και μοσχους και παιδας και παιδισκας και εδωκεν τω αβρααμ και απεδωκεν αυτω σαρραν την γυναικα αυτου

15 και ειπεν αβιμελεχ τω αβρααμ ιδου η γη μου εναντιον σου ου εαν σοι αρεσκη κατοικει

16 τη δε σαρρα ειπεν ιδου δεδωκα χιλια διδραχμα τω αδελφω σου ταυτα εσται σοι εις τιμην του προσωπου σου και πασαις ταις μετα σου και παντα αληθευσον

17 προσηυξατο δε αβρααμ προς τον θεον και ιασατο ο θεος τον αβιμελεχ και την γυναικα αυτου και τας παιδισκας αυτου και ετεκον

18 οτι συγκλειων συνεκλεισεν κυριος εξωθεν πασαν μητραν εν τω οικω του αβιμελεχ ενεκεν σαρρας της γυναικος αβρααμ

2551. 'What did you see, that you have done this thing?' means a looking into the cause. This is evident without explanation, as well as from what follows where the cause is stated. The reason ideas of how the Lord perceived and thought regarding the doctrine of faith, and regarding the rational, whether it should be consulted, are presented in that particular order in the internal sense is that it is angel-like to think about them in such a sequence. The internal sense of the Word exists in particular for angels, and has accordingly been rendered suitable to their perceptions and thoughts. For them these are experiences of delight, indeed of bliss and of happiness, when they are thinking about the Lord, about His Divinity and His Humanity, and about how the latter was made Divine. For when thinking about these they are encompassed by a celestial and spiritual sphere which is filled with the Lord, so that it may be said of them that they are in the Lord. Consequently nothing is more blissful and happy for them than to think in accordance with those things which belong to that sphere and to the affection resulting from this. What is more, they are at the same time instructed and perfected, in particular in the matter of how as He grew up the Lord by degrees and from His own power made Divine the human into which He had been born, and thus how, by means of knowledge and cognitions which He revealed to Himself, He perfected His rational, gradually dispelled its shadows, and brought it into Divine light. When the Word is being read, these and countless other realities are presented to angels in a celestial and spiritual fashion, together with thousands and thousands of representatives in the light of life. But these matters which to angels are so precious are to men of little importance since they are above and beyond them and so are lost in the darkened parts of their understanding. Conversely those which are precious to men, such as hold worldly matters within them, are to angels of little importance since they are beneath their state of existence and so are lost in the darkened parts of their wisdom. Thus, wondrous to tell, the very things which enter the darkened parts of man's mind, and almost into his contempt, pass into the light angels enjoy and into their affection, as do many things which belong to the internal sense of the Word.
