2236. 'In order that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham that which He has spoken concerning him' means that the Human Essence will for that reason be joined to the Divine Essence. This is not so clear from the meaning of the words here, but it is clear from the consideration that everything stated in the Word implies the Lord's Coming to unite the Human Essence to the Divine Essence, by means of which, once these were united, He would save the human race. These are the things that are meant in the internal sense by the statement that He would bring upon Abraham that which He had spoken concerning him.
