29
mitt under det att man skådar åt dig falska profetsyner och spår åt dig lögnaktiga spådomar om att du skall sättas på de dödsdömda ogudaktigas hals, vilkas dag kommer, när missgärningen har nått sin gräns.
Hesekiel 21:29
Wicked
Swedenborg several times associates the “wicked” with “malevolence,” defines “malevolence” as “destroying good, interior and exterior,” and says that the wicked do this by disowning the desire for good and understanding for good that come from the Lord and actively denying the Lord.
We might say, then, that wickedness is evil on the hunt, looking for all that is good and true specifically so it can attack and destroy it.
