Apocalypse Explained #921
921. Verse 20. And the wine-press was trodden without the city; and there went out blood from the wine-press even unto the bridles of the horses, for a thousand six hundred stadia. 1
20. "And the wine-press was trodden without the city," signifies the bringing forth of falsity from evil out of hell n. 922; "and there went out blood from the wine-press even to the bridles of the horses," signifies falsifications of the Word flowing forth from evil, even to dominion over the understanding n. 923; "for a thousand six hundred stadia," signifies evils in the whole complex (n. 924). 2
Footnotes:
1. A stadium (plural stadia) is an ancient Greek measure of distance equal to about 607 feet. Thus 1600 stadia is about 180 miles or 300 kilometers.
2. MARGINAL NOTE. - See chap. 19., where the Lord as the Word is treated of.
