385. Verse 14 Behold, You have driven me this day off the facea of the ground; and I shall be hidden from Your face,a and I shall be a wanderer and a fugitive in the land; and everyone finding me might kill me.
'Being driven off the face' of the ground' means being separated from all the truth of the Church. 'Being hidden from Your face'a means being separated from all the good present in faith and flowing from love. 'Being a wanderer and a fugitive in the land' means not knowing what truth and good are. 'Everyone finding him might kill him' means that all evil and falsity would destroy him.
