1782. The heifer, she-goat, and ram are representatives of the celestial things of the Church, while the turtle dove and the fledgling are representatives of the spiritual things of the same, verse 9. The Church was on one side, the Lord on the other, verse 10. The Lord would disperse evils and falsities, verse 11. But falsities would continue to infest it, verses 12, 13. From those falsities there would be deliverance, verse 14, and so the Lord would experience comfort, verse 15. Evils however would take possession of it, verse 16, and in the end nothing but falsities and evil desires would reign there, verse 17. At this point the Lord's kingdom would come, and a new Church, the extension of which is described, verse 18. The falsities and evils that were to be expelled from it are the nations mentioned in verses 19-21.
