24
Mười cái sừng là mười vua sẽ dấy khiến từ nước đó; và có một vua dấy lên sau, khác với các vua trước, và người đánh đổ ba vua.
Daniel 7:24
Apocalypse Explained #454
454. Out of every nation, and [of all] tribes.- That these words signify all those who are in the good of life according to the doctrinals of their religion, is evident from the signification of nation, as denoting those who are in good, concerning which see above (n. 175, 331); here, those who are in the good of life; and from the signification of tribes, as denoting the goods and truths of the church in their whole extent, concerning which see also above (n. 431). But because those who are in the good of life according to their religion, are here treated of, by tribes are signified the doctrinals of religion, which they believe to be truths and goods; for these also are meant by tribes, when such are treated of in the Word, whereas, the tribes of Israel, which we have spoken of above, mean all those who are in the genuine truths and goods of the church, and in the abstract those truths and goods. Out of every nation and [of all] tribes, here therefore signifies all those who are in good of life according to the doctrinals of their religion.
Mark 7:33-35
33
He took him aside from the multitude, privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue.
34
Looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha!" that is, "Be opened!"
35
Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was released, and he spoke clearly.
