3 Og da jeg så op, fikk jeg se en vær som stod foran elven; den hadde to horn, og begge hornene var høie, men det ene høiere enn det andre, og det høieste vokste sist frem.

179. Internal Meaning of Daniel, Chapter 8

Prediction concerning the church in respect to charity and in respect to faith. (11, 11)

1-3 The church which is in faith and in charity, and its power. (11)

4 It will increase in truths and goods. (11)

5 Faith alone will wholly destroy charity. (2)

6-10 It will prevail through reasonings, by which it will dissipate the truths of doctrine that are derived from the Word. (2)

11-12 It will destroy the worship of the Lord, together with Divine truths. (2)

13-14 This will go on until the Coming of the Lord. (1)

15-19 It is further explained, that this will be when the Lord comes. (2, 1, 15)

20-25 Faith alone will destroy the church, and despise the Lord. (3, 4)

26 This is the end of the church. (3)

27 It is a sad time. (3)
