16 Shromažďte lid, posvěťte shromáždění, shromažďte starce, shromažďte maličké i ty, jenž prsí požívají; nechť vyjde ženich z pokojíka svého a nevěsta z schrany své.

Locusts

  

'Locusts' signify falsities in the extremes, which consume the truths and goods of the church in a person. 'The locusts' which John the Baptist ate signify truths of a most common or general nature.

(Odkazy: Apocalypse Revealed 424, 430)

2152. 'From the tent door' means from the holiness that was the Lord's at that time. This is clear from the meaning of 'tent' as holiness, and from the meaning of 'door' as the entrance to holiness, dealt with above in 2145.
