2090. And I will turn him into a great nation symbolizes the enjoyment, and increase, of what is good. This is established by the symbolism of nations as what is good (discussed in §§1159, 1258, 1259, 1260, 1416, 1849 of volume 2). So turning someone into a great nation means both the enjoyment of what is good and increases in goodness.
