116. Verse 13. And the name of the second river is Gihon; the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Cush. The “second river” which is called “Gihon” signifies the knowledge [cognitio] of all things that belong to the good and the true, or to love and faith, and the “land of Cush” signifies the mind or faculty. The mind is constituted of the will and the understanding; and what is said of the first river has reference to the will, and what of this one to the understanding to which belong the knowledges [cognitiones] of good and of truth.
