Apocalypse Revealed (Whitehead) n. 333

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

333. Verse 13. And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, signifies the dispersion of all the knowledges of good and truth. That "stars" signify the knowledges of good and truth, may be seen above (n. 51); that "to fall from heaven to earth" means to be dispersed is evident; in the spiritual world, also, stars appear to fall from heaven to the earth there, when the knowledges of good and truth perish.
