873.“这是第二次的死”表这些人遭受被罚入地狱本身之苦。“第二次的死”表示属灵的死亡,也就是被罚入地狱(参看853节)。之所以这么说,是因为那些内心邪恶,本身已沦为魔鬼和撒但,却貌似教会之人的人比其他人所受的惩罚更甚。
873. This is the second death. This symbolically means that this is their final damnation.
That the second death symbolically means spiritual death, which is damnation, may be seen in no. 853 above. It is mentioned here because the impious at heart, who in themselves are devils and satanic spirits, and yet seem to be people of the church, are more damned than others.
873. 'This is the second death' signifies that these suffer damnation itself. That by 'the second death' is signified the spiritual death that is damnation may be seen above (853). This is said because those who are wicked-hearted and in themselves devils and satans and yet are like the men of the Church are damned beyond the rest.
873. This is the second death, signifies that with these there is damnation itself. That by "the second death" is signified spiritual death, which is damnation, may be seen above, (853).

873. "Haec est altera mors," significat quod his sit ipsa damnatio.-Quod per "alteram mortem" significetur mors spiritualis, quae est damnatio, videatur supra (853); hoc dicitur, quia illi qui impii corde sunt, et in se diaboli et satanae, et tamen sicut homines Ecclesiae, prae reliquis damnati sunt.
