8088.“因此我把一切打开子宫的，若为公，都献给耶和华为祭”表因此，属于新生的仁之信必被归于主。这从“献给耶和华为祭”、“一切打开子宫的”和“公”的含义清楚可知。“献给耶和华为祭”是指归于主；此处“献为祭”与本章2节中的“分别为圣”、12节中的“归给”所表相同；“献给耶和华为祭”表示归于主（参看8042节），“归给”也是（8074节）；“归于”表示拒绝声称某种事物是自己的，而是坦白并承认它来自主。“一切打开子宫的”是指源于仁的信之事物（8043节）；它们属于新生（参看8042节）。“公”是指信之真理，如前所述（2046，4005，7838节）。

8088. Therefore I sacrifice to Jehovah all that openeth the womb, being males. That this signifies that therefore the faith of charity which is of the new begetting must be ascribed to the Lord, is evident from the signification of "sacrificing to Jehovah," as being to ascribe to the Lord (by "sacrificing" is here signified the like as by "sanctifying" in verse 2 of this chapter, and by "causing to pass over" in verse 12; that "to sacrifice to Jehovah" denotes to ascribe to the Lord, see n. 8042, and so does "to cause to pass over," n. 8074); by "ascribing" is meant not to claim to oneself, but to confess and acknowledge that it is from the Lord from the signification of "that openeth the womb," as being the things which are of faith from charity, n. 8043; (that these are of the new begetting, see above, n. 8042); and from the signification of "male" as being the truth of faith (of which, n. 2046, 4005, 7838).

8088. 'Therefore I sacrifice to Jehovah all that open the womb, if they are males' means that therefore the faith springing from charity, which belongs to the new birth, is to be ascribed to the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'sacrificing to Jehovah' as ascribing to the Lord ('sacrificing' here has a meaning similar to that which 'sanctify' has in verse 2 of this chapter, and 'making over to' in verse 12, for 'sanctifying to Jehovah' means ascribing to the Lord, see 8042 and so too does 'making over to Him', 8074; 'ascribing' is used to mean refusing to claim something as one's own, and confessing and acknowledging that it comes from the Lord); from the meaning of 'whatever opens the womb' as matters of faith springing from charity, dealt with in 8043 (for evidence that they belong to the new birth, see above in 8042); and from the meaning of 'male' as the truth of faith, dealt with in 2026, 4005, 7838.
