[NCE]1139. Inner Meaning
IT was said earlier that the Word has four different writing modes: 1. the mode of the earliest church, which resembled the manner of writing in Genesis from its first chapter up to the present one, 2. the narrative mode, which is seen in the rest of Moses and in all the other narrative books,{*13} the prophetic mode, and 4. a mode midway between the prophetic kind and people's usual way of speaking. For more on this, see 66.
Footnotes:
{*1} "The rest of Moses" refers to the other books besides Genesis traditionally identified as having been written by Moses: Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. "The other narrative books" are listed by Swedenborg in 66 as Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings. See note 1 in 64. [LHC]

1139. THE INTERNAL SENSE It has been stated already that there are four different styles in the Word. The first, which was that of the Most Ancient Church, is such as is that from the first chapter of Genesis to this chapter. The second is the historical style, as in the following books of Moses, and in the rest of the historical books. The third is the prophetic style. The fourth is intermediate between the prophetic style and that of common speech. Concerning these styles see n. 66.

1139. THE INTERNAL SENSE
It has been stated already that there are four differing styles in the Word. The first is that of the Most Ancient Church, a style like that used in the first chapter of Genesis down to the present chapter. The second is the historical, like that used subsequently in Moses and in the rest of the historical books. The third is the prophetical style, the fourth a style which lies half-way between the prophetical and ordinary speech. Regarding these styles, see 66.

1139. SENSUS INTERNUSDICTUM est prius quod quatuor differentes stili sint in Verbo: Primus qui fuit Ecclesiae Antiquissimae, qui talis fuit qualis a primo capite Geneseos huc usque; SECUNDUS est historicus, qualis in sequentibus apud Mosen et in reliquis libris historicis; TERTIUS est propheticus; QUARTUS, qui medius inter propheticum et communem loquentium de quibus videatur n. 66.
