365. (3) To you is his desire, and you have dominion over him', which means that charity wishes to reside with faith but cannot because faith wishes to have dominion over it, which is contrary to order. As long as faith wishes to have dominion, it is not faith. But once charity has dominion, it is faith, for the chief thing of faith is charity, as shown already. Charity may be compared to a flame of fire, without which heat and light do not exist since it is the source of heat and light; separated faith may be compared to light which, when devoid of the heat of the flame, is certainly light, but winter light when everything becomes inactive and dies off.

399. Verse 17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he was building a city, and he called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch.

'Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch' means that this schism or heresy produced another from itself which was called 'Enoch'. 'A city that was built' means every detail of doctrine and heresy arising out of it. It is because that schism or heresy was called Enoch that the statement is made about the name of the city being called after the name of his son Enoch.
