Metaphysical meaning of Ithnan (mbd)

Metaphysical meaning of Ithnan (mbd)
Ithnan, ith'-nan (Heb.)--constant; perennial, permanent; strong; firm; consistent; extended; excellent; bestowed; given.

A city of Judah, "toward the border of Edom in the South" (Josh 15:23).

Meta. A group of thoughts of firm, steady, upright character (strong, firm, consistent, constant, permanent) in the subconscious mind, and working toward expression in the body consciousness ("toward the border of Edom in the South," south referring to the subconscious mind, and Edom to the outer, or the body). This group of thoughts is also broad and comprehensive (extended), thus giving to the individual a larger understanding of his true source and place in being, as well as giving him more strength and endurance. Thus it does its part in making the whole man, and especially the outer and seemingly physical, more abiding and spiritual.
