359. Verse 6 And Jehovah said to Cain, Why has your anger been set ablaze, and why has your face ¹ fallen?

'Jehovah said to Cain' was the dictate of conscience. 'Anger has been set ablaze and the face ¹ has fallen' means, as previously, the departure of charity and the change that took place in interiors.

Poznámky pod čarou:

Hands in the Bible represent power, the force with which things are put into action. To be specific, they represent the power of spiritual good -- which is the love of others and serving others -- expressed through spiritual truth -- which is an understanding and knowledge of what it is to love and serve others. This is in contrast to the feet, which represent power on the natural level, and a “rod,” which represents the power of the hand passed down into external or natural ideas. In a few cases in the Bible, hands also represent communication and a drawing together. This is true when people lift their hands to heaven or to Jehovah, and also when the Lord touches children or touches people to heal them.
