5524. Then shall I know that ye are no spies. That this signifies that then truths would no longer be for the sake of gain, is evident from the signification of "spies," as being those who are in the truths of the church for the sake of their own advantage, meaning here that they would be so no longer if there were conjunction through an intermediate.
