6 여호와께서 가인에게 이르시되 네가 분하여 함은 어찜이며 안색이 변함은 어찜이뇨 ?

Arcana Coelestia #387

387. 'Being hidden from Your face' 1 means being separated from all the good present in faith and flowing from love. This is clear from the meaning of 'the face 1 of Jehovah'. As stated already, 'the face of Jehovah' means compassion, the source of all goods present in faith and flowing from love. For this reason every good accompanying faith is meant by 'the face' 1 here.

Footnotes:

1. literally, faces
