5
ιδων δε κυριος ο θεος οτι επληθυνθησαν αι κακιαι των ανθρωπων επι της γης και πας τις διανοειται εν τη καρδια αυτου επιμελως επι τα πονηρα πασας τας ημερας
Genesis 6:5
Arcana Coelestia #564
564. Verse 1. And it came to pass that man began to multiply himself upon the faces of the ground, and daughters were born unto them. By “man” [homo] is here signified the race of mankind existing at that time. By the “faces of the ground” is signified all that tract where the church was. By “daughters” are here signified the things appertaining to the will of that man, consequently cupidities.
