672. Verse 13. And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and there were killed in the earthquake names of men seven thousand; and the rest became afraid, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 13. "And in that hour," signifies during that state (n. 673); "there was a great earthquake," signifies a notable change of state of the interiors with those who are of the church (n. 674); "and the tenth part of the city fell," signifies that no truths of doctrine any longer existed with those who remained (n. 675); "and there were killed in the earthquake names of men seven thousand," signifies that in that change of state all truths of good also perished with them, and thus all things of heaven and the church (n. 676); "and the rest became afraid," signifies the commotion of mind and turning away of those who were to some extent spiritual (n. 677); "and gave glory to the God of heaven," signifies that they acknowledged and worshipped the Lord (n. 678).
