In Luke 12:49, this signifies spiritual combats may exist when goods and truths are revealed by the Lord and that without such combats personal reformation cannot take place. (Apocalypse Explained 504[31])

'Word,' as in Isaiah 9:8, signifies the doctrine of internal and external worship. 'Word,' as in Psalms 119:6-17, stands for doctrine in general.

'The Word,' as in Psalms 147:18, signifies divine good united with divine truth.

The whole Word is nothing but the doctrine of love towards the Lord, and love towards our neighbor, as in Matthew 22.
