Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 8713

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

8713. Princes of hundreds. That this signifies primary truths in the second degree, is evident from the signification of "princes," as being primary things (as just above, n. 8712); and from the signification of "hundreds," as being many persons or many things, but in the second degree, because "thousands" signify those in the first degree. (That "a hundred" denotes much, see n. 4400.)
