Arcana Coelestia#5043
5043. 'And gave him favour in the eyes of the governor of the prison-house' means consequent support in temptations. This is clear from the meaning of 'giving favour' as support, for 'giving favour' in temptations is bringing comfort and supporting with hope; from the meaning of 'the governor (or the prince)' as primary truth, dealt with in the next paragraph; and from the meaning of 'the prison-house' as the laying waste of falsity, and therefore temptation, dealt with above in 5038, 5039.
Jeremiah第50章:35-37
35
A sword is on the Chaldeans, says Yahweh, and on the inhabitants of Babylon, and on her princes, and on her wise men.
36
A sword is on the boasters, and they shall become fools; a sword is on her mighty men, and they shall be dismayed.
37
A sword is on their horses, and on their chariots, and on all the mixed people who are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is on her treasures, and they shall be robbed.
