1095. Vers. 26. Et dixit, Benedictus Jehovah Deus Shemi, et erit Canaan servus illi. 'Benedictus Jehovah [Deus] {1} Shemi' significat omne bonum illis qui ab internis colunt Dominum; 'Shemus' est Ecclesia interna: 'et erit Canaan servus illi' significat quod tales qui in externis solum cultum ponunt, sint inter eos qui vilia servitia praestare possint hominibus Ecclesiae. @1 Possibly this omission was intentional, but cf. this page, last line but one.$
