12 και επι του ποταμου αναβησεται επι του χειλους αυτου ενθεν και ενθεν παν ξυλον βρωσιμον ου μη παλαιωθη επ' αυτου ουδε μη εκλιπη ο καρπος αυτου της καινοτητος αυτου πρωτοβολησει διοτι τα υδατα αυτων εκ των αγιων ταυτα εκπορευεται και εσται ο καρπος αυτων εις βρωσιν και αναβασις αυτων εις υγιειαν

860. Whose number is as the sand of the sea. This symbolizes the multitude of such people.

The multitude of such people is likened to the sand of the sea, because the sea symbolizes the external component of the church (nos. 402-404, 470), and the sand is something which serves no use in the sea except to compose the bottom.

Because the number of such people is so great, therefore the valley of their burial is called "The Multitude of Gog," and the name of the city where they are, "The Multitude" (Ezekiel 39:15-16).
