2965# “在赫的儿子们耳中说的”象征根据那些属于新教会之人的能力。这一解释基于“在耳中说”和”赫的儿子们“这两个短语的深层含义。在内在意义上,”说“既象征直接领受也象征意愿——象征直接领受(参2619节),象征意愿(参2626节)。”耳朵“象征顺从(参2542节)。因此,”在耳中说“象征根据接受者的能力来传达,这种能力体现在他们根据自己的直接领受和意愿而产生的顺从。至于”赫的儿子们“,他们象征新的属灵教会的成员(参2913节)。
关于教会成员如何经历改造,也就是如何将真理植入信仰中,并使之与仁义的良善相结合,将在接下来的2967节中探讨。
2965、“照着他在赫的儿子们耳边所说的”表示照着那些属于新教会之人的能力,或说尽他们所能,这从“在耳边说”和“赫的儿子们”的含义清楚可知。就内义而言,“说”既表示感知(参看2619节),也表示意愿(2626节);而“耳”表示顺从(参看2542节)。因此,“在耳边说”表示照着他们的能力,或尽他们所能,因为能力取决于接受,因而取决于对某个人的感知和意愿的顺从。“赫的儿子们”是指那些属于新的属灵教会的人(对此,参看2913节)。下面这一节(2967节)将进一步讨论教会成员被改造,也就是说,信之真理被植入他,并且这信之真理与仁之良善结合。
Potts(1905-1910) 2965
2965. Which he had spoken of in the ears of the sons of Heth. That this signifies according to the capacity of those who are of the new church, is evident from the signification of "speaking in the ears," and of the "sons of Heth." In the internal sense to "speak" signifies both to perceive and to will (that it signifies to perceive, see n. 2619; that it signifies to will, n. 2626). But the "ears" signify obedience (see n. 2542); hence to "speak in the ears" denotes according to the capacity (for the capacity depends on the reception, and thus on the obedience accordingly as one perceives and wills); also from the signification of the "sons of Heth," as being those who are of the new spiritual church (concerning which see above, n. 2913). (That the man of the church is reformed, that is, the truth of faith is implanted in him, and that this is conjoined with the good of charity, will be stated below in this verse, n. 2967.)
Elliott(1983-1999) 2965
2965. 'Which he had spoken of in the ears of the sons of Heth' means according to the propensity of those who belonged to the new Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking in the ears' and of 'the sons of Heth'. 'Speaking' in the internal sense means both perceiving (see 2619) and 'willing' (see 2626), while 'the ears' means obedience, 2542. Consequently 'speaking in the ears of' means according to their propensity, for propensity is the ability to receive and then to obey what someone perceives and wills. And the meaning of 'the sons of Heth' as those who belonged to the new spiritual Church is dealt with above in 2913. The consideration that the member of the Church is reformed, that is, has the truth of faith implanted in him, and that this is joined to good that is the good of charity, will be discussed further on in this verse, in 2967.

2965. `Quod locutus in auribus filiorum Heth': quod significet secundum facultatem illorum qui a nova Ecclesia, constat a significatione `loqui in auribus,' et a `filiorum Heth'; `loqui' in sensu interno significat et percipere et velle; quod percipere, videatur n. 2619, quod velle, n. 2626; `aures' autem significant oboedientiam, n. 2542; inde est quod `loqui in auribus' sit secundum facultatem, facultas enim est receptionis, ita oboedientiae secundum quod quis percipit et vult; tum ex significatione `filiorum Heth' quod sint illi qui a nova Ecclesia spirituali, de qua supra n. 2913. Quod reformetur homo Ecclesiae, hoc est, ei implantetur verum quod fidei, et hoc conjungatur bono quod {1}charitatis, infra in hoc versu n. 2967 dicetur. @1 quantum recipere et velle potest, hoc est, secundum ejus facultatem, mox$
