씰라는 두발가인을 낳았으니 그는 동,철로 각양 날카로운 기계를 만드는 자요 두발가인의 누이는 나아마이었더라
Arcana Coelestia #338
338. Verse 1 'And the man knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain; and she said, I have gained a man, Jehovah'. 1
'The man and Eve his wife' means the Most Ancient Church, as is well known. Its first offspring, or firstborn, is faith, which is here called 'Cain'. 'She said, I have gained a man, Jehovah' means that with those called Cain faith was known and acknowledged as something existing by itself.
Footnotes:
1. Grammatically Jehovah is at this point accusative or objective case.
