Count the cost
In Luke 14:28, this signifies to determine how one may procure for oneself interior truths. (Arcana Coelestia 4599[5])
In Revelation 18:19, this signifies the belief that for certain temporary actions people could receive spiritual blessings and rewards after death. (Apocalypse Revealed 789)
Fowl
Fowl signify spiritual truth; a bird, natural truth; and a winged thing, sensual truth. Fowl of heaven, as in Hosea 2:18, signify the affections of truth; and reptiles of the earth, the affection of the knowledges of truth and good. Fowl signify thoughts, and all that creeps on the ground, the sensual principle. Fowl signify intellectual things.
