Apocalypse Explained #101

Studere hoc loco

  
/ 1232  
  

101. Verse 3. And hast borne and hast endurance, signifies resistance against those who assail the truths of faith, and diligence in instructing. This is evident from the signification of "bearing," in reference to those who are in the knowledges of truth and good, as being resistance against those who assail the truths of faith, for those who are in knowledges defend those truths, and resist those who are against them; also from the signification of having "endurance" or "patience," as being diligence in instructing.

Arcana Coelestia #9984

Studere hoc loco

  
/ 10837  
  

9984. The actual delight that resides in the love of doing good without thought of benefit to oneself is a reward that lasts forever; for all love and affection inscribed on a person's life remains permanently. Into that good 1 heaven is introduced, and eternal happiness from the Lord.

V:

1. The meaning of the Latin here (in illum) is not certain. But in the small work De Nova Hierosolyma Et Ejus Doctrina Coelesti, published two years later, Swedenborg wrote in id bonum (into that good).
