Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 8574

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

8574. What shall I do to this people? That this signifies for those who are in a complaining so grievous on account of the non-reception of truth, is evident from the signification of "What shall I do to this people?" as involving such things; for by the quarreling of the people against Moses is signified a grievous complaining (see n. 8563, 8566); and by their having "no water to drink" is signified a lack of truth (n. 8562, 8568).
