58. And send to the churches which are in Asia. That this signifies, and then to all those who are in the light of intelligence, is evident from the signification of the seven churches, as being all who are in truths from good, or in faith from charity, thus who belong to the church (concerning this see above, n. 20); and from the signification of Asia, as being those who are in the light of intelligence (concerning this also see above, n. 21).
