Arcana Coelestia #6264
6264. And lo God hath made me see thy seed also. That this signifies that not only was the influx of love perceived, but also good and truth thence derived, is evident from the representation of Manasseh and Ephraim, who here are the “seed,” as being the good of the will and the truth of the intellectual (see n. 5354, 6222); and also from the signification of “seed,” as also being good and truth (n. 1610, 2848, 3310, 3373, 3671); and because it is said, “I had not thought to see thy faces, and lo God hath made me see thy seed also,” it is signified that not only was the influx of love perceived, but also the good and truth thence derived; for by “seeing the faces” is signified the influx of love (n. 6263).
Isaiah 9:19-21
19
Through the wrath of Yahweh of Armies, the land is burnt up; and the people are the fuel for the fire. No one spares his brother.
20
One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:
21
Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
