Arcana Coelestia #9087

Study this Passage

  
/ 10837  
  

9087. 'The owner of the pit shall make repayment' means that the one with whom the falsity resides shall make amends. This is clear from the meaning of 'the owner of the pit' as the one with whom the falsity resides, 'the pit' meaning falsity, see 9084, 9086; and from the meaning of 'making repayment' as making amends. The reason why 'making repayment' means making amends is that 'a fine' means amendment, 9045, and 'the silver' he was to pay means the truth by means of which the amendment was accomplished, dealt with in what follows next.
