Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 14. And the state in which the soul comes from the affection of interior or rational truth into the commencement of the life of good is one in which truths are in fullness, and a new state is commencing in which the self-will of the evil proprium is becoming subdued, and the soul is convinced of its insufficiency to contend in its own strength against evil as declared by the Lord.
