Enemy

  
Charge of the Huns, by Ulpiano Checa

An enemy in the Bible refers to people who are in the love of evil and the false thinking that springs from evil. On a deeper level it refers to the forces of hell itself, and on an abstract level it refers to evil itself and falsity itself – which are, obviously, the ultimate enemies we have to fight.

(References: Apocalypse Explained 671; Arcana Coelestia 2851 [1-15], 8282, 8289, 9255 [1-2], 9313)
