434. Verse 25 And the man (homo) knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and she called his name Seth - for God has appointed me another seed in place of Abel, seeing that Cain had killed him.

'The man' and 'his wife' are here used to mean the new Church which earlier on was meant by 'Adah and Zillah'. 'Her son whose name she called Seth' means new faith, through which charity may be received 'God has appointed another seed in place of Abel, seeing that Cain had killed him' means that charity, which Cain separated and annihilated, was now conferred on this Church by the Lord.
