3826. 'And Jacob served seven years for Rachel' means the fulfilment. This is clear from the meaning of these words as a diligent effort to be made during a holy state, to the end that it might be joined to internal truth, dealt with above in 3824 - the fulfilment of all this, it is evident, being meant now.
