AC 2170 - Make Ready

AC 2170

And Abraham hastened toward the tent unto Sarah,
and said, Make ready quickly
three measures of meal of fine flour,
knead, and make cakes. "
(Genesis 18:6)

Abraham hastened toward the tent unto Sarah,"
signifies the Lord's
rational good conjoined with His truth;
"Abraham" is here the Lord in that state as to good;
"Sarah," as to truth;
the "tent," as to the holy of love:
"and said," signifies 
the state of perception relatively at that time;
"make ready quickly
three measures of meal of fine flour,
knead, and make cakes,"
signifies the celestial of His love in that state;
"three" denotes what is holy;
"meal of fine flour,"
is the spiritual and the celestial of the rational
which were then with the Lord;
"cakes" denote the same when both are conjoined.
