25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments by which they should not live;

Commentarius

 

Seed

  

'A seed' signifies the ultimate and primary levels in a person. It also signifies good and truth from the Lord. In an opposite sense, it signifies falsity of doctrine and hellish falsity. 'A seed' signifies everyone who constitutes the Lord's spiritual kingdom and faith grounded in charity.

In Genesis 12:7, 8:15, 16, 'a seed' signifies love and everyone who has love.
