8019.“按着他们的军队”表这些人照着源自真理的良善之品质而彼此不同。这从“军队”的含义清楚可知,“军队”是指良善和真理,如前所述(7988节)。“按着他们的军队”表示以色列人所代表的那些人照其源自真理的良善之品质而彼此有别。在来世,所有人都照着良善而彼此不同,并相互结合(参看7833,7836,8003节)。之所以说“照着源自真理的良善之品质”,是因为一切良善都从真理获得自己的具体品质,并由此而各不相同(3804,4149,5345,5355,6916节)。
Potts(1905-1910) 8019
8019. By their armies. That this signifies these distinct according to the quality of good from truth, is evident from the signification of "armies," as being goods and truths (of which above, n. 7988); "by their armies" signifies that they who are represented by the sons of Israel were made distinct according to the quality of good from truth. (That all in the other life are distinct and conjoined according to goods, see n. 7833, 7836, 8003.) It is said "according to the quality of good from truth," because all good has its quality from truth, and is thereby varied (n. 3804, 4149, 5345, 5355, 6916).
Elliott(1983-1999) 8019
8019. 'By their hosts' means those people made distinct from one another by the specific character of their good, which is derived from truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'hosts' as forms of good and truths, dealt with above in 7988. 'By hosts' means that those people, those who are represented by 'the children of Israel', were made distinct from one another by the specific character of their good, which is derived from truth; for all in the next life are made distinct from, yet are linked to one another by their varieties of good, see 7833-7836, 8003. The expression 'by the specific character of their good, which is derived from truth' is used because all good derives its specific character from truth, and is for that reason varied, 3804, 4149, 5345, 5355, 6916.
Latin(1748-1756) 8019
8019. `Quoad exercitus illorum': quod significet illos distinctos secundum quale boni a vero, constat ex significatione `exercituum' quod sint bona et vera, de qua supra n. 7988; `quoad exercitus' significat quod illi, qui per `filios Israelis' repraesentantur, distincti essent secundum quale boni a vero; quod omnes in altera vita secundum bona distincti et conjuncti sint, videatur n. 7833, (x)7836, 8003. Secundum quale boni a vero dicitur, quia omne bonum suum quale habet a vero, (c)et inde variatur, n. 3804, 4149, 5345, 5355, (x)6916.
