In the spiritual sense, by "eye" is not meant the eye, but the understanding; therefore, "every eye shall see Him," signifies that all who are in the understanding of Divine truth from affection will acknowledge Him, because they alone understand and acknowledge. The rest see indeed and also understand, but do not acknowledge; the former, then, are signified, because it follows, that "they also who pierced Him" will see Him, by whom are meant those who are in falsities. That "the eye" signifies the understanding, will be seen below (n. 48).
