4100. 'For all the riches which God has snatched from our father belong to us and to our sons' means that all had been acquired by His own power and nothing given to Him by anyone else - by flowing in from His Divine into that which He received from [intermediate good]. This is clear from what has been stated and explained above in 4065, 4075, 4081.
