Studie

       

23 Nõnda hävitati kõik olendid, kes maa peal olid; niihästi inimesed kui loomad ja roomajad, ja linnud taeva all hävitati maa pealt, järele jäid ainult Noa ja need, kes temaga laevas olid.

Mountains and hills

  

In Isaiah 55:12, this stands for worshiping the Lord in love and charity (which are the mountains and hills) and in the faith that grows out of them (which is the trees of the field.) (Arcana Coelestia 795[4])

Flesh

  
Still Life with Ham by Ferenc Ujházy

Flesh has several meanings just in its most obvious form. It can mean all living creatures as when the Lord talks about the flood "destroying all flesh"(Genesis 7:21), or it can mean all of mankind (Genesis 6:3), or it can mean something soft and yielding such as the heart of flesh to replace the stony heart (Ezekiel 11:19) But spiritually it means the loves that dwell in the will of a person, and seem to belong to that person, to be that person. This person may be one who has not started to regenerate (or never will), or one who is in the middle of the process, or one who is near the end. In the highest sense flesh means the loves that are in the Lord's will, which are divine. This meaning is clear in the Lord's words in the gospel of John (John 6:53-56).
