Marriage # 94
94. There are some in excrementitious hells who have been given to variety, and by this have extinguished the conjugial, and are at the same time voluptuaries; these are in the province of the intestines, underneath them, where there are lavatories everywhere and a foul smell; and everywhere there are caverns from which this smell escapes.
Sit
If you think about sitting, it seems fair to say that where you're sitting is more important than that you're sitting. Sitting in a movie theater, sitting in a classroom, sitting in the driver's seat of a car, sitting in the defendant's seat at a trial, sitting at the family dinner table -- those are very, very different things. But even so, the fact that you're sitting in those places is important -- it means you are part of what's going on, you're staying in place. This is similar to "sitting" in the Bible. Sitting on a throne indicates judgment; sitting in a tent door indicates holiness. The context is crucial. But in all cases "sitting" indicates a sense of permanence, belonging, and full participation in the spiritual state illustrated through the context.
