EVIL is not from creation; nothing but good exists from creation, 444.  Man himself is the origin of evil, not that that origin was implanted in him by creation, but that he, by turning from God to himself, implanted it in himself, 444.  Love without wisdom is love from man, and this love is the origin of evil, 444.  No one can be withdrawn from evil unless he has been first led into it, 510.  So far as any one removes evil, so far a capacity is given for good to succeed in its place, 147.  So far as evil is hated, so far good is loved, 147.  Evils and falses, after they arose, were distinguished into genera, species, and differences, 479.  All evils are together of the external and internal man; the internal intends them, and the external does them, 486.  So far as the understanding favors evils, so far a man appropriates them to himself, and makes them his own, 489.  See Hereditary.

EXTENSION cannot be predicated of things spiritual, 158.  The reason why, 389.

EXTERNALS derive from their internals their good or evil, 478.  Of the external derived from the internal, and of the external separate from the internal, 148.  How man after death puts off externals, and puts on internals, 48*.

EYE, the, does not see and discern various particulars in objects, but they are seen and discerned by the spirit, 440.  In heaven the right eye is the good of vision, and the left the truth thereof, 316.

EYES, when the, of the spirit are opened, angels appear in their proper form, which is the human, 30.

FABLES.—­Things which are called fables at this day, were correspondences agreeable to the primeval method of speaking, 182.

FACE, the, depends on the mind (animus), and is its type, 524.  The countenance is a type of the love, 35.  The variety of countenances is infinite, 35.  There are not two human faces which arc exactly alike, 186.  The faces of no two persons are absolutely alike, nor can there be two faces alike to eternity, 524.

FACULTY.—­Man is born faculty and inclination; faculty to know, and inclination to love, 134.  The faculty of understanding and growing wise as of himself, was implanted in man by creation, 444.  The faculty of knowing, of understanding, and of growing wise, receives truths, whereby it has science, intelligence, and wisdom, 122.  Man has the faculty of elevating his understanding into the light of wisdom, and his will into the heat of celestial love; these two faculties are never taken away from any man, 230.  The faculty of becoming wise increases with those who are in love truly conjugial, 211.

FAITH is truth, 10, 24.  Saving faith is to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, 82.

FALLACIES of the senses are the darkness of truths, 152*.

FALSES, all, have been collated into hell, 479.  See Evils.

FALSIFICATIONS of truth are spiritual whoredoms, 77, 80.
