여호와의 말씀이 또 내게 임하여 가라사대
6727. 'And his sister stood at a distance, to know what would happen to him' means the Church's truth far away from there, and observation. This is clear from the meaning of 'sister' as rational truth, dealt with in 1495, 2508, 2524, 2556, 3160, 3386, thus the Church's truth, for this is rational truth; and from the meaning of 'to know what would happen' as observation.
4499. 'Each took his sword' means falsity and evil. This is clear from the meaning of 'a sword' as truth engaged in conflict and consequently the defence of truth, and in the contrary sense falsity engaged in conflict, and consequently the vastation of truth, dealt with in 2799. The reason why 'a sword' at this point also means evil is that Levi was implicated, who represented charity, and so good. When good is turned into evil it uses falsity from evil to fight with, in which case anything it does is evil.
