King
In Genesis 14:1, kings signify apparent goods and truths having the upper hand. In the next verse, they stand for the dominant evils and falsities against which the Lord fought as he passed He grew up on Earth.
In Genesis 14:3, we see that these evils and falsities were unclean; and in Genesis 14:4, that they burst forth later. (Arcana Coelestia 1661-1664).
In Genesis 14:14-15, this signifies that the Lord gained victory over them the evils represented earlier in the chapter. (Arcana Coelestia 1711-1715)
In Isaiah 33:17, a king signifies seeing genuine truth. (Apocalypse Explained 304[31])
In Revelation 9:11, a king signifies one who is in truth from an affection for what is good, and abstractly that truth itself -- here, in the opposite sense. (Apocalypse Revealed 440)
Hosea 2:21-23
21
It will happen in that day, I will respond," says Yahweh, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;
22
and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.
23
I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God!'"
