[NCE]116. Genesis 2:13. And the name of the second river is Gihon; it is circling the whole land of Cush.
The second river, called Gihon, symbolizes knowledge about everything involved in goodness and truth, or in love and faith. The land of Cush symbolizes our mental abilities.
Will and intellect constitute the mind. The attributes portrayed by the first river belong to the will, while those portrayed by this second river belong to the intellect, which houses our knowledge of goodness and truth.
Potts(1905-1910) 116
116. Verse 13. And the name of the second river is Gihon; the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Cush. The "second river" which is called "Gihon" signifies the knowledge [cognitio] of all things that belong to the good and the true, or to love and faith, and the "land of Cush" signifies the mind or faculty. The mind is constituted of the will and the understanding; and what is said of the first river has reference to the will, and what of this one to the understanding to which belong the knowledges [cognitiones] of good and of truth.
Elliott(1983-1999) 116
116. Verse 13 And the name of the second river is the Gihon, that which encompasses the whole land of Cush.
'The second river', which is called the Gihon, means the cognizance of all things that have to do with what is good and what is true, that is, with love and faith. 'The land of Cush' means the mind, or [mental] power. The mind consists of will and understanding. All that is said about the first river has reference to the will, and all that is said about this [second river] has reference to the understanding, to which the cognitions of good and of truth belong.
Latin(1748-1756) 116
116. Vers. 13. Et nomen fluvii secundi Gihon; is circumdans totam terram Cush. 'Fluvius secundus,' qui vocatur Gihon, significat cognitionem omnium quae sunt boni et veri seu amoris et fidei: 'terra Cush,' mentem seu facultatem. Mentem constituit voluntas et intellectus; quae sunt primi fluvii, referunt se ad voluntatem, quae sunt hujus, ad intellectum, cujus sunt cognitiones boni et veri.
