Damascus

In Genesis 14:15, Damascus, being the chief city of Syria, signifies knowledge of good and truth. (Arcana Coelestia 1715)

In Ezekiel 27:18, this signifies external knowledge. (Apocalypse Explained 376[18])

In Isaiah 17:3, this signifies people who value religion for knowing only external things. (The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms 17)

Damascus and Aroer (Isaiah 17:1, 2) signify knowledge of truth and good. See Eliezer of Damascus.

¹⁰ The field is laid waste. The land mourns, for the grain is destroyed, The new wine has dried up, and the oil languishes.

¹¹ Be confounded, you farmers! Wail, you vineyard keepers; for the wheat and for the barley; for the harvest of the field has perished.
