3291. 'And she went to inquire of Jehovah' means a state of communication. This is clear from the meaning of 'inquiring' as communicating when said of the Lord. Actually it was Jehovah within Himself who was being inquired of. In the historical sense however that communication is expressed as 'praying', 3285, and the state of communication as 'inquiring'.

2019. 'And your seed after you' means conjunction with those who have faith in Him. This is clear from the meaning of 'seed' as faith, dealt with in 1025, 1447, 1610, and also from the meaning of 'after you' as following. In the Word 'walking after someone' is a frequently used phrase, as in Jeremiah 7:6; 8:2; Ezekiel 20:16; also Mark 8:34; Luke 9:23; 14:27. Here therefore 'your seed after you' means those who have faith and who follow Him. In the internal sense they are those born from Him.
