Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 8800

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

8800. Or shooting he shall be shot. That this signifies that spiritual good also will perish, is evident from the signification of "being shot," as being to perish in respect to spiritual good; for by "an archer" is signified the spiritual man (see n. 2686, 2709, 6422).
