创世记 10:3中的'利法'是有外在敬拜形式的几个国家之一,象征着几个教义问题,这些教义尊重来自歌篾外在敬拜的礼仪. 这一点在先知书中很清楚,在先知书中再次提到了同样的国家. 这些国家在任何情况下都是指教义的教诲或仪式的形式. 通常这意味着两种意义,有时是真正的意义,有时是相反的意义.

46. Further, people of similar quality all recognize each other there just the way people in this world recognize their neighbors and relatives and friends, even though they may never have seen each other before. This happens because the only relationships and kinships and friendships in the other life are spiritual ones, and are therefore matters of love and faith. 1

I have often been allowed to see this when I was in the spirit and therefore out of body and in the company of angels. Then some of them looked to me as though I had known them from infancy, while others seemed totally unfamiliar. The ones who looked as though I had known them from infancy were the ones who were in a state like that of my own spirit, while the unfamiliar ones were in dissimilar states.
