9660.“十六座”表全部支撑。这从“十六”和“座”的含义清楚可知。“十六”是指完全,因为“十六”和“八”具有相同的含义,相乘得出的数与构成它们的简单数具有相同的含义(参看5291,5335,5708,7973节);“八”表示完整或完全之物,以及在各个方面都是如此之物,如刚才所示(9659节);因此,它也表示全部。“座”是指支撑(9643节)。
Potts(1905-1910) 9660
9660. Sixteen bases. That this signifies complete support, is evident from the signification of "sixteen," as being wholly, for "sixteen" has a similar signification to "eight," because multiplied numbers signify the like as do their factors (see n. 5291, 5335, 5708, 7973); that "eight" denotes what is full, and in every way, was shown just above (n. 9659); thus it also denotes wholly. And from the signification of "bases," as being support (n. 9643).
Elliott(1983-1999) 9660
9660. 'Sixteen bases' means total support. This is clear from the meaning of 'sixteen' as that which is total, 'sixteen' being similar in meaning to 'eight' since multiple numbers have a similar meaning to the simple ones of which they are the products, 5291, 5335, 5708, 7973, and 'eight' means what is complete and what is so in every respect, as shown immediately above in 9659, thus that which is total; and from the meaning of 'bases' as support, dealt with in 9643.
Latin(1748-1756) 9660
9660. `Sedecim bases': quod significet sustentationem prorsus, constat ex significatione `sedecim' quod sint prorsus; (x)sedecim enim simile significant cum octo, quoniam numeri multiplicati simile cum simplicibus a quibus, n. 5291, 5335, 5708, 7973; quod octo sint plenum et omnimodum, nunc supra n. 9659 ostensum est, ita quoque prorsus; et ex significatione `basium' quod sint {1} sustentatio, de qua n. 9643. @1 d sint i sit$
