4854. 'He and his companion Hirah the Adullamite' means that falsity was present with it still. This is clear from the representation of 'Hirah the Adullamite' as falsity, dealt with above in 4816, 4817. When therefore the expression 'his companion' is used, the attachment of falsity to that Church is meant, that is, that falsity was present with it still.
