Exodus 15:8-10
8
And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9
The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10
Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
Arcana Coelestia #8287
8287. 'The floods stood as a heap' means that those constantly attempting what was evil could not engage in any molestation whatever. This is clear from the meaning of 'standing as a heap', when it refers to falsities arising from evil, as constantly attempting what is evil, for when floods stand as a heap they are overhanging and endeavouring to rush down, but are held back by a stronger force; and from the meaning of 'the floods', like 'the waters', as falsities arising from evil, 7307, 8137, 8138. But they are called 'the floods' on account of their attempt to flow in, that is, to molest.
