Interior confession is of the heart and comes forth in humiliation, a...

2759. On the right side there rose up from the lower earth as it were a roll; and it was said that they were many spirits from the lower class of people, untaught but not depraved.

Further than this they knew little of faith and its mysteries. Afterwards othe...

A "cave" signifies obscurity because it is a dark place; when a "cave of a mountain" is spoken of, it th...

The price of redemption is the Lord's merit and...

That this signifies exterior knowledges, is evident from the signification of "borders" and of "round about," as being things which are exterior (of which above, n. 2936); so that here the "tree that was in the border round about" signifies exterior knowledges. Exterior knowledges are those of the ritual and doctri...
