14
あなたは、きょう、わたしを地のおもてから追放されました。わたしはあなたを離れて、地上の放浪者とならねばなりません。わたしを見付ける人はだれでもわたしを殺すでしょう」。
Arcana Coelestia #397
397. Verse 16 And Cain went out from the face 1 of Jehovah, and he dwelt in the land of Nod towards the east of Eden.
'Cain went out from the face 1 of Jehovah' means that he was separated from good present in faith and flowing from love. 'He dwelt in the land of Nod' means outside truth and good. 'Towards the east of Eden' is close to the understanding part of the mind, where love had reigned previously.
V:
1. literally, the faces
