1708、“就率领他家里生养的精练壮丁”表示外在人中那些现已摆脱奴役枷锁的良善，这从“精练壮丁”和“亚伯兰家里生养” 的含义清楚可知。亚伯兰的“精练壮丁”，也就是受过训练但缺乏经验的人，在内义上是指外在人中那些能与内层人结合的良善；而“家里生养的”在内义上同样是指这些良善，也指真理，是属于内层人的。不过，这句话包含的奥秘比所能表达的还要多。这些奥秘尤其涉及：试探的争战之后，表面的良善如何变成纯正的良善，然后它们如何与内层人或中间人结合，又通过这内层人或中间人与内在人结合，并以同样的方式变成神性。因为主逐渐将祂的人性或人身本质与祂的神性本质结合起来，并且是通过试探的争战和胜利而如此行的，如前所述（1659:2，1661:5节）。这些变得纯正的良善被称为亚伯兰的“精练壮丁”，或缺乏经验的人，因为这些良善经过了训练，但缺乏经验。它们因靠祂自己的能力获得，故被称为“家里生养的”。

[NCE]1708. And he mustered his trainees, offspring of his household, symbolizes the goodness in his outward self that was now free of slavery's yoke, as can be seen from the symbolism of Abram's trainees and the offspring of his household. In an inner sense, Abram's trainees or novices are the good qualities of the outer self that are capable of allying with the intermediate self. The offspring of his household in an inner sense is the fact that these same good qualities, and truths as well, were his own. This sentence holds more secrets than can be expressed, however. In particular it contains information about the way apparent goodness becomes real goodness after our spiritual struggles are over. It also reveals that this goodness is then capable of allying with the intermediate self and through this with the inward self and of becoming divine in the process. The Lord, you see, gradually joined his human nature to his divine nature, and he did so by fighting his spiritual battles and winning them, as noted [1659:2, 1661:5]. This goodness, which had become genuine, is what is being called Abram's trainees, or novices, because it was indeed newly trained. Because he accumulated it by his own power, it is called the offspring of his household.

1708. And he hastened his trained men that were born in his house. That this signifies these goods and truths in the external man which were now delivered from the yoke of servitude, is evident from the signification of the "trained men," as also of those "born in Abram's house." Abram's "men in training," or novitiates, in the internal sense, are those goods in the external man which can be conjoined with the interior man; those "born in the house," in the internal sense, are the same goods and also truths, as being proper to that man. But these things contain more arcana that can be told; in the first place these-how, after the combats of temptations, apparent goods become genuine goods, and that they can then be conjoined with the interior or middle man, and through this with the internal man, and be made in like manner Divine. For the Lord adjoined His Human Essence to His Divine Essence by degrees, and this by means of combats of temptations and victories, as before said. These goods that were made genuine are what are called Abram's "men in training," or novitiates; for these goods were in training, and were novitiates; and as they were procured by His own power, they are called "born in his house."
Elliott(1983-1999) 1708
1708. 'And he brought out his trained men, born in his house' means these goods residing with the External Man which were now released from the yoke of slavery. This is clear from the meaning of 'trained men' and also of 'bore in Abram's house'. In the internal sense 'Abram's trained men' - that is, trained but inexperienced - are those goods residing with the External Man that are able to be joined to the Interior Man, while those 'born in the house' in the internal sense are those same goods, and also truths, as belonging to that Interior Man. But these matters contain more arcana than can be made known. Those arcana have to do primarily with the way in which, following the conflicts brought about by temptations, apparent goods become genuine goods, and with the fact that when this happens they can be joined to the Interior Man and through the Interior Man to the Internal Man, and in like manner be made Divine. For the Lord, by degrees, joined the Human Essence to the Divine Essence, doing so, as has been stated, through conflicts and victories in temptations. These goods that were made genuine are what are called 'Abram's trained men' or inexperienced ones, for those goods had undergone training but were 'inexperienced'. And because they were acquired by His own power, they are called those 'born in the house'.

1708. 'Et expedivit initiatos suos, natos domus suae': quod significet illa bona quae apud Externum hominem quae nunc liberata a jugo servitutis, constat a significatione 'initiatorum,' tum 'natorum domus Abrami'; 'initiati seu novitii Abrami' in sensu interno sunt illa bona apud Externum Hominem quae conjungi possunt Interiori Homini; 'nati domus' in sensu interno sunt eadem bona ut et vera quod propria sint; sed haec plura arcana continent quam ut possint edici, illa imprimis quomodo bona apparentia post pugnas tentationum fiunt bona genuina, et quod tunc possint conjungi Interiori seu Medio Homini, et per hunc Interno, et similiter fieri Divina; Dominus enim per gradus adjunxit Humanam Essentiam Divinae, et hoc per pugnas tentationum et victorias, ut dictum; haec bona quae genuina facta, sunt quae appellantur 'initiati seu novitii Abrami,' nam initiata et novitia fuerunt; et quia propria potentia comparata sunt, appellantur 'nati domus.'
