2074. The spirits who had been struck with horror by the first image portrayed of that garden tract, could hardly throw off that horror, until they were told that if any kind of uncleanness had been there, it nevertheless has nothing unclean in it when someone else possesses it-just as the temple of Jerusalem, which had been profaned by idols, until, when the true worshipers came, it was sanctified. 1748, 25 May.
2074. Spirits who conceived a horror from the first representative idea of the garden tract could scarcely throw off that horror till they were told that should there have been any other such thing there presented as being a certain unclean thing, still that no one could contract aught unclean when possessed by another. As, for instance, the temple at Jerusalem was sanctified so long as true worshippers came to it, though it was profaned by idols. - 1748, May 25.
2074. Spiritus qui horrorem ceperunt ex prima idea repraesentativa tractus hortulani, vix potuerunt excutere eum horrorem, priusquam iis dictum sit, quod si quicquam simile ibi fuisset, ut immundum quid, quod usque nihil immundi secum habeat, cum alius eum possidet, sicut templum Hierosolymae, quod profanatum ab idolis, usque dum cultores veri venerunt, sanctificatum est. 1748, 25 Maj.
