856. Verse 5 And the waters were going down and abating until the tenth month; in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.
'The waters were going down and abating' means that falsities started to be dispersed. 'The tenth month' means the truths that are present within remnants. 'On the first of the month the tops of the mountains appeared' means the truths of faith which at that point began to be seen.
