1113. 有些少女被引诱卖淫, 以为此举不属邪恶, 但在其它方面正派得体. 由于她们还没有达到能够认识和判断有关那种生活的年龄, 因此, 会有一个十分严厉的导师与她们在一起, 只要她们思想这种放纵的行为, 就会受到惩罚. 她们非常害怕这个导师. 以此法, 她们受到消磨. 但是, 那些已为妓女且引诱她人为娼的成年女人不经历消磨, 而是下地狱.

A congregation is a group of people with common loves, interests, and purposes. It often refers to a church group. In the Word it is almost always used to speak of the whole group of the Children of Israel, as the tabernacle of the congregation, or the people of the congregation. Sometimes the original Hebrew is translated as assembly, too. This is a case where readers and translators need to be aware of the context and potential nuances of meaning. Swedenborg writes that,'The congregation of the people' stands for people who are ruled by truths constituting intelligence, since 'congregation' is used with reference to truths... as also is 'people'... 'the assembly of the old' stands for people who are ruled by good. The usage of the term congregation also implies an ordering, or arrangement of truths.
