Study

       

27 Mangagtaas kayo ng watawat sa lupain, inyong hipan ang pakakak sa gitna ng mga bansa, magsihanda ang mga bansa laban sa kaniya, pisanin laban sa kaniya ang mga kaharian ng Ararat, ng Minmi, at ng Aschenaz: mangaghalal ng puno laban sa kaniya; pasampahin ang mga kabayo ng parang mga uod.

Commentary

 

Slain

  

In Genesis 4:23, this signifies to extinguish faith. (Arcana Coelestia 427)

'The slain of Jehovah' signify people who turn truths into falsities, which causes them to perish.

'The slain,' in Lamentations 2:12 signify people who do not know what the truths of faith mean.

'The slain' when referring to the Lord in Revelation 5 means the separation of everything from the divine. In denial of His divinity, He is spiritually slain to people and this denial causes a state of separation from Him.
