Arcana Coelestia (Elliott) n. 9321

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9321. 'And completely break to pieces their pillars' means that the same must be done to falsities of worship, that is to say, they must be removed. This is clear from the meaning of 'breaking to pieces' - when it has reference to falsities of worship, meant by 'pillars' - as removing, as above in 9320; and from the meaning of 'pillars' as falsities of worship, dealt with in 3727, 4580.
