Horn

  

In Genesis 22:13, this signifies with all power as to the truths of faith. (Arcana Coelestia 2832) Horns are mentioned in the Word here and there, and signify the power of truth from good, or, in the opposite sense, of falsity from evil. Here they signify that the spiritual are entangled in external knowledges of the natural with all power as to truth; but are deprived of the power of receiving truth. (Arcana Coelestia 2832)

In Revelation 8:11, this signifies power in speaking, teaching, and writing, consequently, in reasoning and arguing.

'The little horn that rose up,' as mentioned in Daniel 7:3-8, signifies the full perversion of the Word by the application of its literal sense to the confirmation of the love of dominion. It is called 'little,' because such perverted application is not sensibly apparent to the understanding of a person, or to the sight of his spirit.

When spoken of the Lord, a 'horn' signifies omnipotence. It also stands for the power of truth from good.

18 "He shall go out to the altar that is before Yahweh and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar.

19 He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
