Carpenters

  

For carpenters, there are big differences in meaning, depending on the context:

'Carpenters' signify truths in extremes, the same as 'iron.'

In Genesis 4:22, this signifies one who is wise, intelligent, and knowing, here in natural good and truth. (Arcana Coelestia 424)

In Isaiah 40:19, this signifies one who shapes a falsity from self-intelligence and makes it appear to be a truth. (Arcana Coelestia 10406[4])

In Isaiah 41:7, this signifies people who are in self-intelligence. (The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms 41)

In Isaiah 44:13, this signifies the religion that is from self-intelligence. (Arcana Coelestia 8941[8])

In Matthew 13:55, this signifies the good of life from the doctrine of truth. (Athanasian Creed 98)

15-16 They will be totally dispersed. (8)

16-17 Those who confide in the Lord will not fail. (3)

18-20 They will have truths and goods in all abundance. (11)

21-24 The rest will not know, and will have no power. (11, 3)

25-26 Those who are in ignorance of truth, will come to the Lord; (11)

27 the church will consist of these. (11, 3)

28-29 Of themselves they are [nothing] but falsity and evil. (11)
