Ezekiel 16:57

Study

       

57 Before thy wickedness is revealed, As [at] the time of the reproach of the daughters of Aram, And of all her neighbours, the daughters of the Philistines, Who are despising thee round about.

Commentary

 

Rivers

  

'Rivers' or 'floods' signify temptations. 'Rivers' signify truths in abundance serving the rational self, and so, the understanding, for the purpose of doctrine and life.

In Isaiah 43:2, 'rivers' and 'waters' signify difficulties and falsities.
