Furrows
In Psalm 65:10, this signifies things of the church that will become productive and full of knowledge. (Apocalypse Explained 644)
In Psalm 129:3, to make long furrows signifies the state of good, or its holiness, or here the profanation of the holy things of the church. (Arcana Coelestia 650)
In Ezekiel 17:10, this signifies the effect when there is no good in a particular church. (Apocalypse Explained 419[26])
In Hosea 10:4, this signifies the church devastated to such a degree that at heart they worship another god, and so the evils of punishment are brought upon them. (The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms 193)
Sword
A 'sword,' as in Ezekiel 21:9-15, signifies a person so desolated that he can see nothing good and true, but only falsities and contradictions. A 'sword,' in the Word, signifies the truth of faith combating and the vastation of truth. In an opposite sense, it signifies falsity combating and the punishment of falsity.
The 'sword,' in Revelation 1:16, represents a dispersion of falsities by the Lord because the sword came out from His mouth, which means it comes from the Word. Because the Word is understood by doctrine taken from it, this is also symbolically meant. It is called a sharp two-edged sword because it pierces the heart and soul.
A 'flaming sword which turned every way,' as in Genesis 3:24, signifies divine truth in extremes, which, like the Word in its literal sense, can be turned.
