에브라임이 침을 입고 그 뿌리가 말라 과실을 맺지 못하나니 비록 아이를 낳을지라도 내가 그 사랑하는 태의 열매를 죽이리라
The floor, as in Matthew 3:12, signifies the world of spirits which is between heaven and hell, and where the separation of evils and falsities from goods and truths takes place.
In Hosea 9:2, this signifies the Word as to the good of charity; and a wine-press, as to the good of love.
