3973. 'Send me away and let me go to my own place and to my own land' means that at that time there was in the natural represented by Jacob a strong desire to arrive at a state in which it would be joined to everything Divine in the Rational. This is clear from the representation of 'Jacob', who is the speaker, as the good of natural truth, dealt with immediately above in 3972; from the meaning of 'place' as state, dealt with in 2625, 2837, 3356, 3387; and from the meaning of 'land' in this case as everything Divine in the Rational. For 'my land' is used to mean Isaac his father and Rebekah his mother, it being to them that he wished to be sent away and to go. 'Isaac' means the Divine Rational as regards good, see 2083, 2630, 3012, 3194, 3210, and 'Rebekah' Divine truth joined to the Divine good of the Rational, 3012, 3013, 3077. It is evident from the affectional content of the words themselves that a strong desire to be joined to these is meant.
