Rain

  

'To rain' signifies influx. In Genesis 2:5-6, Exodus 34:25-27, and Hosea 6:3, 'rain' signifies the tranquility of peace when the combat of temptation ceases. 'An inundating rain' signifies the vastation of truth, as in Ezekiel 3:11-14. 38:23, and temptation, as in Matthew 7:24-27. In Genesis 7:4, 'rain' signifies temptation and vastation. 'Rain,' in a positive sense, denotes blessing, but in the opposite sense, damnation

Matthew 7:24-27

Studie

      

24 "Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock.

25 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn't fall, for it was founded on the rock.

26 Everyone who hears these words of mine, and doesn't do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand.

27 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell--and great was its fall."
