Commentary

 

Strength

  

In Psalm 96:6, this signifies divine good and truth in the church. (Apocalypse Explained 288[4])

In Isaiah 49:5, this is attributed to truth which cannot be resisted. (Arcana Coelestia 426[3])

In Isaiah 52:1, this relates to Zion because Zion signifies the celestial church which is in the good of love to the Lord. (Arcana Coelestia 4545[2])

In Luke 10:27, this signifies the will and understanding extended to extremes. Strength' relates truth and falsity.

'Strength,' as in Revelation 1:6, signifies divine omnipotence, and relates to divine love.
