9
Car voici, je m'en vais susciter et faire venir contre Babylone une assemblée de grandes nations du pays de l'Aquilon, qui se rangeront en bataille contre elle, de sorte qu'elle sera prise. Leurs flèches seront comme celles d'un homme puissant, qui ne fait que détruire, et qui ne retourne point à vide.
'The children of Israel,' in Isaiah 14:2, signify the Gentiles.
In Jeremiah 23:8, 'Israel' represents the spiritual natural church.
(Reference: Apocalypse Explained 768)
'Swine,' as in Matthew 7:6, signify the filthy loves that are in the hells of adulterers. They also signify people who only love worldly riches, and not spiritual riches, which are the knowledges of good and truth derived from the Word. To eat the flesh of 'swine,' as in Isaiah 65:4, signifies appropriate infernal evils.
(Reference: Apocalypse Explained 1014; Apocalypse Revealed 727)
