405. Verse 19 And Lamech took two wives for himself; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

'Lamech', who was sixth in the line of descent from Cain, means the vastation that exists when faith is no more. 'Two wives' means the rise of a new Church, 'Adah' being the mother of the celestial and spiritual features of that Church, 'Zillah' the mother of its natural features.
