Arcana Coelestia #1019
1019. Verse 8 And God said to Noah and to his sons with him, saying,
'God said to Noah and to his sons with him, saying' means the truth of the things that follow concerning the spiritual Church, meant by 'Noah and his sons with him'.
Gathered together, waters
In Exodus 15:8, this signifies falsities gathered together. Waters normally signify truths, but in this case, where they were blocking the escape of the Children of Israel from slavery and signify the opposite: falsities.
