355. Verse 5. But to Cain and his offering He looked not; and Cain’s anger was kindled exceedingly, and his faces fell. By “Cain” as has been stated, is signified faith separated from love, or such a doctrine as admits of the possibility of this separation; by his “offering not being looked to” is signified as before that his worship was unacceptable. By “Cain’s anger being kindled exceedingly, and his faces falling” is signified that the interiors were changed. By “anger” is denoted that charity had departed; and by the “faces” the interiors, which are said to “fall” when they are changed.
