8 C'est l'Egypte; elle s'élève comme une rivière, et [ses] eaux s'émeuvent comme les fleuves; et elle dit : je m'élèverai, je couvrirai la terre, je détruirai les villes, et ceux qui y habitent.

112. Internal Meaning of Jeremiah, Chapter 46

The natural of man will perish by reasonings from knowledges [scientifica]. (3)

1-6 All such knowledges are no longer of any avail, because they have been destroyed by means of reasonings. (3)

7-10 Pride in these will be lowered, and they will become falsities. (3)

11-12 They cannot be healed, because the church has been destroyed by means of these falsities. (3, 15)

13-19 The whole natural perishes, nor is there anything there but falsity and evil. (3)

20-24 All its learning which confirms falsities will perish. (3, 11)

25-26 The like will happen to others who trust in knowledges [scientifica]. (3, 11)

27-28 It is otherwise with those who are in spiritual captivity, who will constitute the church. (11, 11)
