10494. 'For [every] man has been against his son and against his brother' means when the internal has been shut off, in order that truth and good from heaven may not enter the external. This is clear from the meaning of 'man against son and against brother', or after they have killed them, as a shutting off of the internal to prevent the inflow of truth and good, dealt with above in 10490, 10492.

'Son' means truth, see 489, 491, 533, 1147, 2623, 2628, 2803, 2813, 3373, 3704, 4257, 9807.

'Brother' means good, 3815, 4121, 4191, 5409, 5686, 5692, 6756.

3643. I have noticed that those in heaven dwell beneath a clear, bright sky like that of morning and midday, extending also towards evening, and likewise in a warmth like that of spring, summer, and autumn. But those in hell dwell under a dim, cloudy, and darkened sky, and also in the cold [of winter]. I have noticed that between the two in general a balance is kept; also that insofar as love, charity, and consequently faith are present in angels, they dwell under a clear sky and in the warmth of spring, and that insofar as hatred and consequently falsity are present in those in hell they dwell in thick darkness and in coldness. And as stated above, the light in the next life holds intelligence within it, the warmth love within it, while thick darkness holds insanity within it, and cold hatred within it.
