19 Derpå brød vi op fra Horeb og drog gennem hele denne store, grufulde Ørken, som I selv har set, i Retning af Amoriternes Bjerge, således som HERREN vor Gud havde pålagt os. Og vi kom til Kadesj Barnea.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 19. And when the soul left the state in which it had been instructed in truths from the Word, it passed through temptations in which, the mind appeared deprived of all joy and happiness, and was oppressed by evils and falses. These are perceived to be in the soul when it is in a state of self-love, and for this reason it is remitted into this state by the Lord, after which the regenerating soul comes into the affection of interior or rational truth (Kadesh-barnea).
