13
εγενετο δε εσπερα και ανεβη ορτυγομητρα και εκαλυψεν την παρεμβολην το πρωι εγενετο καταπαυομενης της δροσου κυκλω της παρεμβολης
Exodus 16:13
Arcana Coelestia # 8520
8520. 'And the house of Israel called its name Man' means its essential nature among them. This is clear from the meaning of 'name' and 'calling the name' as the essential nature of a thing, dealt with in 144, 145, 1896, 2009, 2724, 3006, 3421, 6674. The fact that it was called Man because they did not know what it was, and that it means the good of truth, which is the good of those belonging to the spiritual Church, see 8462, 8464.
Revelation 17:8
8
The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and to go into destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, and shall be present.
