Exodus 14:16

Study

       

16 En gij, hef uw staf op, en strek uw hand uit over de zee, en klief dezelve, dat de kinderen Israels door het midden der zee gaan op het droge.

from the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg

 

Arcana Coelestia #8204

Studere hoc loco

8204. 'And the waters were divided' means separation from truths, and removal. This is clear from the meaning of 'the waters being divided' as the dispersing and parting asunder of falsity, dealt with above in 8184, thus separation from truths, and removal.
