29. Chapter 29 [Isaiah] The lost doctrine of truth of the church. This is "Ariel." 3 1-4 It will perish even until it is not anything. 3 5, 6 Falsities will gain strength and pervert still further, even until the church perishes. 2, 3 7, 8 Falsity will appear as truth. 2, 3 9, 12 Because of falsities they are unable to see truths. 2, 3 13 There is external worship without internal. 2, 3 14 There is no longer any understanding of truth. 2, 3 15, 16 They will entertain sinister thoughts about God. 3 17-19 When the old church perishes, a new one is to be established by the Lord. 3, 11 20, 21 All who are against truth and good will perish. 3 22-24 It will be otherwise with those who will receive the Lord; they will understand truths. 11
