10415. 'And the people sat down to eat and drink' means making those things their own. This is clear from the meaning of 'eating and drinking' as making their own, 'eating' making evil their own and 'drinking' making falsity their own.

'Eating' means making good one's own, see 3168, 3513(end), 3596, 3832, 9412, so that in the contrary sense it means making evil one's own, 4745.

'Drinking' means making truth one's own, and in the contrary sense making falsity one's own, 3069, 3168, 3832, 8562, 9412.
