6505.“为他满了四十天”表通过试探的保护状态。这从“四十”和“天”的含义清楚可知：数字“四十”是指试探（参看730，862，2272，2273节）；“天”是指状态（23，487，488，493，893，2788，3462，3785，4850节）。“为他满了四十天”这句话就表示，它们是保护的状态；因为预备是通过满了这些天而做好的，好叫尸体能得以保存，防止腐烂，以此在灵义上表示灵魂能得到保护，防止邪恶的败坏。邪恶和虚假通过试探被除去，人由此被预备好接受真理和良善（参看868，1692，1717，1740，2272，3318，4341，4572，5036，5356，6144节）。
Potts(1905-1910) 6505
6505. And forty days were fulfilled for him. That this signifies states of preparation by means of temptations, is evident from the signification of the number "forty," as being temptations (see n. 730, 862, 2272, 2273); and from the signification of "days," as being states (n. 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, 2788, 3462, 3785, 4850). That they are states of preparation is signified by these "days being fulfilled for him;" for by fulfilling these days preparation was made that the bodies might be preserved from putrefying, in the spiritual sense that souls might be preserved from the contagion of evil. (That by means of temptations evils and falsities are removed, and that man is thereby prepared to receive truths and goods, n. 868, 1692, 1717, 1740, 2272, 3318, 4341, 4572, 5036, 5356, 6144.)
Elliott(1983-1999) 6505
6505. 'And forty days were completed for him' means states of preparation through temptations. This is clear from the meaning of the number 'forty' as temptations, dealt with in 730, 862, 2272, 2273; and from the meaning of 'days' as states, dealt with in 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, 2788, 3462, 3785, 4850. The fact that they are states of preparation is meant by the words 'days were completed for him'; for the completion of that number of days allowed preparation to be made so that bodies might be preserved from putrefaction, by which in the spiritual sense is meant the preparation that is made so that souls may be preserved from the corruption of evil. For more about the removal of evils and falsities by means of temptations, and a person's preparation through temptations to receive truths and forms of good, see 868, 1692, 1717, 1740, 2272, 3318, 4341, 4572, 5036, 5356, 6144.
Latin(1748-1756) 6505
6505. `Et impleti ei quadraginta dies': quod significet status praeparationis per tentationes, constat ex significatione numeri `quadraginta' quod sint tentationes, de qua n. (x)730, 862, 2272, 2273; et ex significatione `dierum' quod sint status, de qua n. 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, 2788, 3462, 3785, 4850; quod sint status praeparationis, significatur per quod `impleti ei illi dies', nam per impletionem dierum illorum {1}fiebat praeparatio ut praeservarentur corpora a putredine, in sensu spirituali {2}ut animae a contagio mali. Quod per tentationes removeantur mala et falsa, et quod homo per illas praeparetur ad recipiendum vera et bona, videatur n. 868, 1692, 1717, 1740, 2272, 3318, 4341, 4572, 5036, 5356, 6144. @1 praeservabantur$ @2 animae a malis$
