7208. 'And I will be to you a God' means that they will also receive the Divine. This is clear from the meaning of 'being to them a God', when said by Jehovah or the Lord, as their receiving the Divine; for it is made possible for all who are in heaven to receive the Divine, that is, Divine Goodness and Truth, and so to receive wisdom and intelligence and therefore happiness of life that results from useful service, which is the exercise of charity. These are the things meant by 'I will be to you a God'.
