101. (Verse 3) And hast borne and hast endurance. That this signifies resistance against those who assault the truths of faith, and zeal in instructing, is evident from the signification of bearing, when said of those who are instructed in the knowledges (cognitiones) of truth and good, as being resistance against those who assault the truths of faith; for those who are in possession of such knowledges (cognitiones) defend them, and resist those who are against them; and from the signification of having endurance or patience, as being zeal in instructing.
