Exodus 4:9

Studie

       

9 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs, neither hearken to thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river shall become blood upon the dry land.

6968. 'And behold, it was restored like his [other] flesh' means that now it was the good of truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'flesh' as the will side of a person's proprium when it has been made alive by the Proprium of the Lord's Divine Human, which is a heavenly proprium, dealt with in 3813. And since this is meant by 'flesh', the good of love to the Lord and towards the neighbour is what is meant. Among those however who belong to the spiritual Church it is the good of truth, for with them good is the product of truth and accords with the truth as taught by their Church. When this truth becomes part of anyone's life it is called good.
