Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 9073

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9073. 'And it kills a man or a woman' means if it then destroys the truth or the good of faith. This is clear from the meaning of 'killing' as destroying; and from the meaning of 'a man' as the truth of faith, and of 'a woman' as the good of faith, as above in 9065.
