SATANS.--They are called satans who have confirmed themselves in favor of nature to the denial of G.o.d, 380. Those who are evil from the understanding dwell in the front in h.e.l.l, and are called satans, but those who are in evil from the will, dwell to the back and are called devils, 492. See _Devils_. Satan wishing to demonstrate that nature is G.o.d, 415.

_Obs._--In the Word, by the devil is understood that h.e.l.l which is to the back, and in which are the most wicked, called evil genii; and by satan, that h.e.l.l in which dwell those who are not so wicked, who are called evil spirits, _H. and H._, 544.

SAVED, to be.--All in the universe who acknowledge a G.o.d, and, from a religious principle, shun evil as sins against Him, are saved, 343.

SCIENCE is a principle of knowledges, 130. There is no end to science, 185. Man is not born into the science of any love, but beasts and birds are born into the science of all their loves, 133. Man is born without sciences, to the end that he may receive them all; whereas, supposing him to be born into sciences, he could not receive any but those into which he was born, 134. Science and love are undivided companions, 134.

SCIENCE OF CORRESPONDENCES, the, was among the ancients the science of sciences, 532. It was the knowledge concerning the spiritual things of heaven and the church, and thence they derived wisdom, 532. It conjoined the sensual things of their bodies with the perceptions of their minds, and procured to them intelligence, 76. This science having been turned into idolatrous science, was so obliterated and destroyed by the divine providence of the Lord, that no visible traces of it were left remaining, 532. Nevertheless, it has been again discovered by the Lord, in order that the men of the church may again have conjunction with Him, and consociation with the angels; which purposes are effected by the Word, in which all things are correspondences, 532. See _Correspondences_.

SELF-CONCEIT, or SELF-DERIVED INTELLIGENCE.--The love of wisdom, if it remains with man, and is not transcribed into the woman, is an evil love, and is called self-conceit, or the love of his own intelligence, 88, 353. The wife continually attracts to herself her husband's conceit of his own intelligence, and extinguishes it in him, and verifies it in herself, 353. He who, from a principle of self-love, is vain of his own intelligence, cannot possibly love his wife with true conjugial love, 193.

The use of this sense is the complex of all other uses, 68. Wives have a sixth sense, and which is a sense of all the delights of the conjugial love of the husband, and this sense they have in the palms of their hands, 155*.

SENSUAL.--Natural men who love only the delights of the senses, placing their heart in every kind of luxury and pleasure, are properly meant by the sensual, 496.

SERPENT, the, signifies the love of self-intelligence, 353. By the serpent, Gen. iii. is meant the devil, as to the conceit of self-love and self-intelligence, 135. In h.e.l.l, the forms of beasts, under which the lascivious delights of adulterous love are presented to the sight, are serpents, &c., 430.

That simultaneous order is grounded in successive, and is according to it, is not known, 314.

SIN.--All that which is contrary to religion is believed to be sin, because it is contrary to G.o.d; and, on the other hand, all that which agrees with religion is believed not to be sin, because it agrees with G.o.d, 348.
