Arcana Coelestia#4135
4135. 'Like captives taken with the sword' means that those affections for truth were taken away from it. This is clear without explanation. They are called 'captives taken with the sword' because 'a sword' has reference to truth, 2799. The implications of this have been explained already.
Ezekiel第5章:1-2
1
You, son of man, take a sharp sword; You shall take it as a barber's razor to you, and shall cause it to pass on your head and on your beard: then take balances to weigh, and divide the hair.
2
A third part you shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled; and you shall take a third part, and strike with the sword around it; and a third part you shall scatter to the wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.
