10 Chính tay người đờn bà vẫn có lòng thương xót, nấu chín con cái mình, Dùng làm đồ ăn cho mình giữa khi con gái dân ta bị phá hại.

95. The subject here is the life of the external man. In the two previous verses it was the life of his faith or understanding, now in this verse the life of his love or will. Previously the external man was not willing to comply with or serve the internal but constantly struggled against it, and so the external man at that time was not man. But now that he has become celestial the external man starts to comply with and serve the internal, and becomes man as well - in particular through the life inherent in faith and the life inherent in love. The life of faith prepares him to be man, while the life of love actually makes him so.
