129. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 6

To all who are in evil love and in falsities from such love in the church. (3)

1-3 They will perish by reason of falsities. (3)

4-6 All of the worship derived from truth and good has been destroyed, because there is nothing but evil and falsity. (3)

10 Those who depart from evils and falsities will not perish. (3, 11)

11 Lamentation over this, (3)

12-14 that all who are in evils and falsities will be destroyed. (3)

'Silver' signifies spiritual good or truth from a celestial origin. It also represents the truth of faith, or the truth acquired from self-hood, or proprium. 'Silver' means scientific truth. In Genesis 20:16, it signifies rational truth. 'A piece of silver' signifies a truth, or a knowledge of truth. In the internal sense of the Word, it signifies truth, but also falsity.
