3317、“以扫从田野而来”表示对生活良善的追求。这从“以扫”的代表和“从田野而来”的含义清楚可知：“以扫”是指属世真理所教导的生活良善（参看3300节）；“从田野而来”是指对良善的追求。“在田间默想”表示沉浸于良善的思维，或思想良善（3196节），因为“田”是指教会的良善（2971节）。

3317. And Esau came from the field. That this signifies the pursuit of the good of life, is evident from the representation of Esau, as being the good of life of natural truth (concerning which see n. 3300); and from the signification of "coming from the field," as being the pursuit of good; for meditating in the field denotes cogitating in good (n. 3196), because a "field" denotes the good of the church (n. 2971).

3317. 'And Esau came from the field' means an urgent desire for the good of life. This is clear from the representation of 'Esau' as the good constituting the life of natural truth, dealt with in 3300, and from the meaning of 'coming from the field' as an urgent desire for good. For 'meditating in the field' is thought immersed in good, 3196, since 'the field' is the good which constitutes the Church, 2971.
