17
亚文和比伯实的少年人必倒在刀下;这些城的人必被掳掠。
In Numbers 31:5, Numbers 32:17, this signifies prepared to accept knowledges of truth. (Apocalypse Explained 430[11])

5599. 'Saying, Is your father still alive?' means and regarding spiritual good from which these sprang. This is clear from the representation of Israel, to whom 'father' refers here, as spiritual good, dealt with in 3654, 4598, 5595. Since the truths of faith descend from that good as their father, 5598, the expression from which they sprang is used here.
