1193. Verses 13-14. And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, and Pathrusim, and Casluhim, from whom went forth the Philistines, and Caphtorim. “Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,” signifies so many nations, by which so many kinds of rituals are signified; “Mizraim” is memory-knowledge; “Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, and Naphtuhim” are so many rituals which are mere matters of memory-knowledge [scientifica]; “Pathrusim and Casluhim” are nations so called, by which are signified the doctrinals of rituals from a similar origin, which were only matters of memory-knowledge; “from whom went forth the Philistines,” signifies a nation thence derived, by which is signified the mere memory-knowledge of the knowledges of faith and charity. Its being said that they “went forth” signifies that with them knowledges are mere memory-knowledges.
