9494. 'And put them on [its] four corners' means firmness. This is clear from the meaning of 'corners' as strength and firmness, the reason why this is meant by 'corners' being that the greatest resistance [to pressure] resides there, and also the whole is bonded together there. Because 'corner' means strength and firmness such as Divine Truth derived from Divine Good possesses, the Lord is called 'the corner-stone': In David,
The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. Psalms 118:22; Matthew 21:42.
And in Zechariah,
From Judah will be the corner-stone, from him the tent-peg, and from him the battle-bow. Zechariah 10:4.
Also in Isaiah,
The Lord Jehovih will lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, a tested stone, a precious corner-stone, surely founded. Isaiah 28:16.
In these places 'corner' in like manner stands for the firmness of teachings which consist of truth that is derived from good.
[2] In Jeremiah,
Nor are they to take from you a stone for a corner, or a stone for foundations. Jeremiah 51:26.
Because firmness is meant by 'corners' horns were placed on the four corners of the altar, regarding which the following is stated in Moses,
You shall make the horns of the altar on its four corners; its horns shall be of one piece with it. 1 Exodus 27:2.
'The horns' are the power of truth derived from good, thus its strength and firmness, see 2832, 9081.
[3] 'The corners' again means strength and power in Jeremiah,
Fire has gone out of Heshbon, which has devoured the corners of Moab. Jeremiah 48:45.
And in Moses,
A star will arise out of Jacob, and a sceptre rise up out of Israel, which will crush the corners of Moab. Numbers 24:17.
'Moab', whose power was going to be destroyed, stands for those who adulterate the Church's forms of good, 2468, their 'corners' standing for the power of falsity that results from the adulterated forms of good. Since power and strength are meant by 'the corners' those who lack the power of truth derived from good are called the cut off of the corner, 2 Jeremiah 9:26; 25:23. What the meaning is when 'corners' refers to the four quarters or winds, see below in 9642.
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. literally, shall be from (or out of) it
2. This expression is generally thought to mean men whose hair is cut in a particular way. Another understanding of it is those in a remote corner of the desert or on the edge of civilization.
