Arcana Coelestia #1020
1020. That these things are meant becomes clear from the fact that everything put together as history from Genesis 1 down to Eber in Chapter 11 means something different from what appears in the letter, and from the consideration that the historical narratives there are purely made-up history customary among the most ancient people. When attesting the truth of some matter they would say that 'Jehovah said it'. Here however 'God' is used because the subject is the spiritual Church. And they did the same when anything true was being, or had been, put into effect.
Torre de vigilancia
Una torre de vigilancia", como en Isaías 23:13, significa las ilusiones o fantasías que provienen del amor a uno mismo, incluso de la adoración a uno mismo. Puede llegar a ser una adoración de sí mismo cuando una persona se pone por encima de todos los demás, con orgullo y arrogancia.
