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.

5756. 'Behold, the silver which we found in the mouth of our pouches' means when truth freely given. This is clear from the meaning of 'silver' as truth, dealt with in 1551, 2954, 5658; from the meaning of 'we found' as that which has been freely given, since the silver for each man's grain had been returned to them, and so had been freely given, see 5530, 5624; and from the meaning of 'the mouth of their pouches' as the opening of the exterior natural, dealt with in 5497.
