9617. “一幅幔子要长三十肘” 表源于良善的真理的完整性. 这从 “长”,

“幔子” 和 “三十” 的含义清楚可知:

“长” 是指良善 (参看9487节);

“幔子” 是指源于外在属天良善的真理 (9615节);

“三十” 是指完整或完全之物 (9082节).

'Forty' represents completeness because 'four' and 'ten' both mean what is complete. Forty is the product of four and ten. Compound numbers have a meaning similar to the simple numbers which compose them, and all numbers in the Word represent spiritual realities.
