BIBLE VERSES

LAND, DRY 

A symbol of the lower quaternary, the lower planes of the soul, or natural man.

"And God called the dry land Earth: and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good." – GENESIS 1:10.

And the dry land is named Earth, which term also stands for the lower nature of the Soul, which is the natural man; and the gathering together of the waters signifies the formation of the astral sea of the desires. And all is pronounced good, that is, perfect in involution for purposes of forthcoming evolution.

"These knowledges are the waters gathered together into one place, and are called seas; but the external man is called dry land, and presently earth." - SWEDENBORG, Arc. Cel. To Genesis 1:10.
