6346. 'Light as water' means that faith alone does not possess such qualities, neither glory nor powerfulness. This is clear from the meaning of 'being light as water' as having no weight or worth. The fact that faith alone is meant, that is, faith separated from charity, is evident from the things mentioned in what follows that involve Reuben, and that involve Simeon and Levi. Those men - Reuben, Simeon, and Levi - are used here also to refer to faith alone or faith separated from charity.

士麦那

  

在启示录第二章中,'士麦那的教会'表示处于美好生活中的人,但在教义上是虚假的,这一点从写给士麦那的信中可以看出,如果从属灵的角度来理解的话。
