Commentarius

 

Jericho

  

'Jericho' generally signifies the good of truths.

In Luke 10:30, this signifies the church in possession of the knowledges of truth and good.

In Joshua 6:1, 'Jericho' signifies instruction and the good of life because no one can be instructed in the truths of doctrine but he who is in the good of life. In an opposite sense, it signifies the profanation of truth and good. (Apocalypse Explained 700)

(Notae: Luke 10)

Behind

  

To be behind, (Genesis 18:10), signifies not to be joined together, but at his back. What is separated from any one, this is represented in another life, by a kind of rejection, as it were, to the back. (Arcana Coelestia 2196)

In Genesis 19:17, this signifies being away from doctrinal things. (Arcana Coelestia 2417)

In Genesis 16:13, Here, behind, or after, signifies within or above, or an interior or superior principle.

In Revelation 1:10, 'behind' signifies that people who do not approach the Lord only (Apocalypse Revealed 42)
