1168. Verse 7. And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba, and Dedan. By “the sons of Cush” are signified those who had not internal worship, but who had the knowledges of faith, in the possession of which they made religion to consist. “Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabteca” are so many nations with whom there were such knowledges. By the same in the internal sense the knowledges themselves are signified. By “the sons of Raamah,” likewise, are signified those who had not internal worship, but had knowledges of faith, in the possession of which they made religion to consist. “Sheba and Dedan” are nations who had such knowledges. By the same in the internal sense are signified the knowledges themselves; but with the difference that by “the sons of Cush” are signified knowledges of spiritual things, and by “the sons of Raamah,” knowledges of celestial things.
