690.启16:8.“第四位天使把他的香瓶倒在日头上”表进入他们爱里面的流注。“倒他的香瓶”在此和前面一样，表示来自良善与真理的流注，在此表示进入他们爱里面的流注；因为“日头”表示主的神性之爱，在反面意义上表示自我之爱（53，382，414节），在此表示自我之爱，因为接下来经上说叫日头能“用火以热烤人”，并且“人被大热所烤”，这些话表示自我之爱的欲望。
690. 16:8 Then the fourth angel poured out his bowl onto the sun. This symbolizes influx into the people's love.
To pour out the bowl symbolizes here, as before, an influx springing from goods and truths, here an influx into the people's love; for the sun symbolizes the Lord's Divine love, and in an opposite sense a love of self (nos. 53, 383, 414). Here it is a love of self, because we are told next that people were scorched with fire, and scorched with great heat, which symbolizes the lusts of that love.
690. [verse 8] 'And the fourth angel poured out his phial into the sun' signifies an influx into their love. By 'to pour out the phial' is signified, here as before, an influx of goods and truths. Here it is into their love, for by 'the sun' is signified the Lord's Divine Love, and in the opposite sense the love of self (53, 382, 414), here the love of self, because it follows on that men were struck down by fire and scorched with the great heat, by which the lusts of that love are signified.
690. Verse 8. And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun, signifies influx into their love. By "pouring out his vial" is signified here, as before, influx from goods and truths, here into their love; for by "the sun" is signified the Divine love of the Lord, and, in the opposite sense, self-love, (53, 382, 414), here self-love, because it follows, that men were scorched with fire, and burned with great heat, by which are signified the concupiscences of that love.
690. (Vers. 8.) "Et quartus Angelus effudit phialam suam in Solem;" significat influxum in amorem illorum. - Per "effundere phialam," significatur hic, ut prius, influxus ex bonis et veris, hic in amorem illorum, nam per "Solem" significatur Divinus Amor Domini, et in opposito sensu amor sui (53, 382, 414); hic amor sui, quia sequitur quod "homines aestu affligerentur per ignem, et aestuarent aestu magno," per quae significantur concupiscentiae illius amoris.
