Reed, bruised
'A bruised reed shall he not break and the smoking flax shall he not quench,' as in Isaiah 42:3, signifies that the Lord does not break fallacies or quench lust, but inclines them to truth and good. 'A bruised reed' signifies feeble power or ability.
(Odkazy: Apocalypse Revealed 285, 904)
Isaiah 42:3
3
He won't break a bruised reed. He won't quench a dimly burning wick. He will faithfully bring justice.
