10
Ses fils se mettront en campagne et rassembleront une multitude nombreuse de troupes; l'un d'eux s'avancera, se répandra comme un torrent, débordera, puis reviendra; et ils pousseront les hostilités jusqu'à la forteresse du roi du midi.
Daniel 11:10
Terah
In Genesis 11:24, Terah, Abraham's father, as a nation represents idolatrous worship. (Arcana Coelestia 1353)
In Genesis 11:31, when Terah leaves Ur for Haran, partway to Canaan, it signifies that people who were in idolatrous worship were instructed in the celestial and spiritual things of faith, so that a representative church could arise from them. (Arcana Coelestia 1373)
In Joshua 24:2, it notes that Terah served other gods. In Arcana Coelestia 5628[2] there are interesting details about this. Abraham's ancestors worshipped 'God Shaddai', which name connotes temptations and, after hardship, comfort.
