4265. Verses 16-23. And he gave into the hand of his servants each drove by itself; and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space between drove and drove. And he commanded the first, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee? Then thou shalt say, Thy servant Jacob's; this is a present sent unto my lord Esau; and behold he is behind us. And he commanded also the second, and the third, and all that went after the droves, saying, According to this word shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him. And ye shall also say, Behold thy servant Jacob is behind us; for he said, I will expiate his faces in a present that goeth before me, and afterwards I will see his faces; peradventure he will lift up my faces. And the present passed over before him, and he passed the night in that night in the camp. And he rose up in that night, and he took his two women, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, and passed over the passage of Jabbok. And he took them, and caused them to pass the river, and caused to pass what he had. "And he gave into the hand of his servants each drove by itself; and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space between drove and drove," signifies an orderly arrangement in regard to the way in which they were to be initiated; "and he commanded the first, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee? Then thou shalt say, Thy servant Jacob's; this is a present sent unto my lord Esau; and behold he also is behind us," signifies submission; "and he commanded also the second, and the third, and all that went after the droves, saying, According to this word shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him," signifies a continuation; "and ye shall also say, Behold thy servant Jacob is behind us; for he said, I will expiate his faces in a present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his faces; peradventure he will lift up my faces," signifies preparation for what follows; "and the present passed over before him," signifies the effect; "and he passed the night in that night in the camp," signifies the things which follow; "and he rose up in that night, and took his two women, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, and passed over the passage of Jabbok," signifies the first instilling of the affections of truth together with the truths acquired; "the passage of Jabbok" is the first instilling; "and he took them, and caused them to pass the river, and caused to pass what he had," signifies further instilling.
