CHILDREN OF MEN AND WOMEN
Symbolic of new mental forms begotten of mind and
emotion. These are opinions, ideas, and impressions formed in the
lower mind; or they are aspects of mental qualities seeking
expression in various ways.
"That children signify truths, and in an opposite sense falseness,
is because in the spiritual sense of the Word, by 'generations' are
meant spiritual generations, neither does spiritual generation give
birth to any other sons and daughters, than truths and goods." -
Swedenborg, Apocalypse Revealed, n. 139.
"In sorrow shalt thou bring forth children,' points to the efforts
necessary for attaining knowledge." - JOHN SCOTUS.
