The Bible

Genesis 1:8

⁸ And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

Commentary

Firmament

The firmament of heaven represents mutual love. The firmament, as in Genesis 1, signifies the internal man.

Commentary

Face of the deep

The face of the deep (Genesis 1:2) signifies the lust of the unregenerate man, and the falsities that originate from it.
