Find

  

Finding, or being found, can have different meanings in the Word, depending on the context. Here are two examples:

From Arcana Coelestia 5756, 'Behold, the silver which we found in the mouth of our pouches' means when truth freely given.

In Revelation 18:21, we find this: "And one strong angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be cast down, and shall not be found any more." Here, "to not to be found any more," signifies not to rise again, according to Apocalypse Explained 1183.

4856. 'And it was pointed out to Tamar, saying' means some kind of communication with the Church that was representative of spiritual and celestial things. This is clear from the meaning of 'being pointed out' as discernment, dealt with in 3608, and so as communication, here some kind of communication; and from the representation of 'Tamar' as the Church that was representative of spiritual and celestial things, dealt with in 4829, 4831. Communication with this Church is a phrase describing what happened when the state underwent a change and there was some kind of a raising up to consult the interests of the Church, dealt with above in 4850, 4853.
