The readers of the works of Swedenborg are aware that a re- print of the Index to the Arcana Coelestia was announced for an earlier date than the appearance of this volume. It may be necessary to explain, therefore, that nothing further was con- templated at that time than a few verbal corrections and the verification of the numbers, with such additional passages, perhaps, as might be considered absolutely necessary, and which it was not supposed would affect its bulk very materially. As the work proceeded, however, it became impossible to avoid a liberal extension of its plan and the various improvements which suggested themselves. It is now hoped that the best apology for the delay of the remaining portion, as well as for past dis- appointment, may be found in the amount of labour bestowed on the greater part of this volume, the immense number of additional references contained in it, and the new forms which the principal subjects have assumed, as the experience of the editor increased with the progress of the task assigned to him. The original Index, left in manuscript by Swedenborg was translated and published with additions by the late Mr. Tulk, the whole alphabet making about 450 pages. As a few sheets at the commencement of the present edition are strictly based upon that work, it wiU be easy to decide upon the propriety of the changes that have been effected, — by a comparison, for example, of the proper names Aaron and Abram with any that occur afterwards, — say Esau, Hagar, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob, Laban, Leah, or Lot. For the sake of consistency, as well as their own intrinsic importance, Aaron and Abram will be given in the same extended form at the end of the second volume. It may be observed here that the sons of Jacob, not being in their alphabetical places, will be found all-together under the article Tribes. VI NOTE. No one who takes the trouble to make such a comparison will fail to see that the respect due to all that has come from the hand of Swedenborg, the advantage of his readers, and the easier reception of the spiritual sense of the Word by the public at large, have been well considered by the present writer. The latter is an object of too much importance to make it any matter of regret that so much space should be occupied with these and other still more elaborate articles. Swedenborg repeatedly re- marks on the difficulty of forming a collected and clear idea of subjects so abstruse, and sometimes so diffusely explained as those of the Arcana Ccekstia without the frequent aid of sum- maries (3074 for example) ; and indeed, there is hardly another writer so remarkable for the assistance that he has himself af- forded to his readers in this way. Patriarchal history, too, forms the very back-bone of his interpretations, as it does of the literal sense of the Word ; so that it must always appear an ob- ject of importance to obtain a clear view, not only of the thing represented, but of the thread of the representation, as it runs through the sacred narrative ; and especially when we know that there are threads of various colours, which pass over and under one another as in a fabric from the loom. Such a view will be Jbund in the historical summaries, given under each name, which not only afford a glimpse of the consistency preserved by Swe- denborg, but also of the beautiful harmony that existed between the events recorded of the patriarchs and their place in the re- presentation. As an example of this, and it may be added as a hint to the reader who wishes to enter into the real spirit [of the author's revelations, we may instance the case of Isaac, who is said to represent the rational man, and whose life really exhibits the meditative and sometimes reasoning mind, as in a pictured history. This is equally true, whether we regard him as contemplative in the fields at evening-tide, as manifesting a holy affection for the truth brought to him under a vail in the figure of Rebecca, or as reasoning upon its appearances when he felt the hands of Jacob disguised as Esau. Another improvement consists in the concordance of passages, as a short example of which, and to afford the instant means of comparison between the former and the present edition of the Index in this respect, an extract is here given from both. NOTE. vii HERD larmentum]. See Ox. That herd denotes natural goods, n. 2566. That flock denotes interior good, n. 2566, and interior natural good, whilst herds denote exterior natural good, n. 5913. That flocks denote internal goods, herds external goods, n. 8937. That flock and herd denote good, internal and external, iU. and sh. n. 10,609. HERD [armentum']. Animals of the herd denote celestial natural things, those of the flock celestial natural, 2180. They within the church who are external or natural men are signified by the herd ; hence, a herd denotes external or natural goods in the abstract, 2566, 3408. Flocks denote internal or rational goods, herds external or natural, 4378, 4505 ; ill. and sh. 10,609. The flock and the herd denote natural good interior and exterior, 5913, 7504, 7663, The flock denotes charity, the herd its exterior goods, which are the exercises of charity, 6530, 6531, 7663. Herds denote exterior goods, and also what are thought to be goods but are not, 4250, 1565, The animals belonging to the herd are oxen, heifers, and steers, which denote affec- tions of good and truth in the natural or external man ; those belonging to the flock, are lambs, sheep, kids, he and she-goats, and rams, which denote affections of good and truth in the internal man, 8937, 9391, briefly 5913. See Flocks, Cattle. The strife between the herdmen of Abram and the herdmen of Lot, denotes the discrepancy and want of correspondence between the internal and external man, 1571. Abraham's running to the herd, and preparing a calf for the entertainment of the angel, denotes the procedure of the rational man in the conjunction of external good, 2180. Isaac being blessed with flocks and herds denotes the acquisition of goods in general, both interior or rational, and exterior or natural, 3154, 3403, 3408. The strife between Isaac's herdmen and the herdmen of the valley of Gerar, denotes the discrepancy and opposition between those who instruct froDi internal doctrine and those who instruct from external, 3425. Jacob's acquisition of flocks and herds iB the service of Laban denotes the procuration of genuine goods and truths by means of such as are not genuine, 3993, 4005, 4073, 4084, 4087, 4169, 4217. His return- ing home with them, and reconciliation with Esau, the conjunction of divine good flowing into the natural man thereby, 4336, 4368, 4378, 4384. His going with all his family and their flocks and herds into Egypt, the procedure of influx and forma, tion of a spiritual state in the natural man, 6043, 6046, 6064, 6065, 6084, 6102— 6106. The Egyptians supplied with com in return for their cattle and their flocks, the influx of spiritual life in proportion to the goods which are offered as receptacles, 6121, 6123, 6124, 6126, 6128. The Israelites delivered from Egypt, their flocks and herds going with them, the salvation of the spiritual church after infestation ; both of those who are in interior good and those who are in exterior, 6825, 6839, 7663, 7960. Finally, the animals of the flock and herd appointed for sacrifice denote the means by which both the internal and the external of man is to become regene- rate, 10,042, 9391. This example has been selected on account of its brevity but every one must see the value of such a spiritual concordance collated from the whole of the Arcana Cceleslia, and also thai it is a much greater act of justice to Swedenborg to furnish the pub- lic with such a guide to his greatest work than to reprint his YIU NOTE. own hastily-penned references, and no more than them ; for it should be remembered that the original Index was found in manuscript after the author's death and was not prepared by him for the press. In this particular instance and in numerous others, the na- tural word or thing is the same, and the spiritual subject is va- rious ; in other cases the spiritual subject is the same, and the things representing it various. There is, accordingly, both a concordance of words and a concordance of subjects in this volume. Of the first class are Field, pp. 216, 217 ; Fire, pp. 220, 221 ; Flocks, p. 226 ; Garmenl, p. 242 ; Gold, pp. 252, 253 ; Oralis, p. 289 ; Greal, p. 289 ; Ground, p. 291 ; Hand, p. 299— 301 ; Hand and Rod, p. 302, 303 ; Handmaid, pp. 304, 305 ; Herd, pp. 332, 333 ; Hoof, p. 341 ; Horse, p. 344 ; Incense, p. 367; Infants, p. 372 ; Inhabit, p. 388 ; Journey, ^,457 ; King, pp. 469 — 471 ; Light, pp. 545, 546 ; Lightnings, p. 546 ; Lion, p. 548; Princes, pp. 472, 473; Riding, p. 344; River Nile, p. 150; and some others. Of the second class are the various illustrations of Fear, pp. 212, 213. Good works, p. 256. Natural good, p. 260. Simple Good, p. 261. Good of Infancy, p. 262. Good of Life, p. 263. Good of Truth, pp. 265, 266. The Rational Man as to Good and Truth, p. 269. Humiliation, p. 348. Idol-Worship, pp. 357, 358. Illustration or Spiritual Illumination, pp. 362, 363. Influx of Good and Truth, pp. 377, 378. Union of Good and Truth, pp. 382, 383. Innocence, pp. 394, 395. The Internal and External Man, p. 408, 409- The Internal and External Church, pp. 412, 413. Internal and External Good, pp. 415, 416. Knowledges, p. 478. The Divine Law, p. 505. Liberation, p. 513. Freedom, pp. 516, 517. Life, pp. 531 — 534. Love, pp. 634 — 636; and many others of less extent and importance. The historical elucidations, which are distributed in parts under the proper names, will often be found in interesting com- binations, which show the cohesion or affinity of the ideas con- tained in the internal sense. Such, among others in the pre- sent volume, are the citations concerning The Patriarchs and Israelites in Egypt, pp. 146 — 149 ; concerning The Jews in Canaan, pp. 451 — 454; and concerning The Miracles done by Moses, p. 302. All these, as well the foregoing, are so many NOTE. IX summaries of the spiritual sense exhibited in its proper dramatic form ; for as the author remarks, good and truth must be under- stood along with their subjects, namely, those who are in good and truth (3305, 4380) ; and the abstract treatment of such things is really for the sake of understanding them in the con- crete ; that is to say, as they stand in the letter of the Word, not as a record of the past merely, but as a representation of human life in all ages. When the concordance of passages is not given in some of the earlier articles, they will be found elsewhere. The passages which might have been given under Colours, for example, will be found under Priest and Tent, and will be quite appropriate to those places because the priests' garments and the vails and coverings of the tabernacle are the principal things of colour mentioned in the Word. In a future edition these will doubt- less be collated under one head with the same advantage as the passages contained under Gold, Silver, ^c. The division of the more extended articles under a number of subordinate heads will afford every facility that could be desired for the discovery of particular passages. To render these as useful as possible, the subdivisions with the page on which they commence are here recited. CHARITY.— I. Charity in life and doctrine, 52. II. Charity and faith, 56. III.

It may be remarked here that the original design of the writer was to give an historical or pictorial representation of every distinct subject under the article Lord, and, in conclusion, a resume of the whole in the order of the author's exposition. The space already covered by that subject made it absolutely necessary to abandon this part of the plan. The subdivisions 75—78, however, possess some interest of this kind, and references are given under most of the others to the representative subjects in other parts of the Index ; on referring to these it will of course devolve upon the reader to allow for the necessary change and elevation of the expressions when he applies them to divine subjects : see in par- ticular what is said on this point, 10,252. In the compilation of this Index the Arcana Ccelestia has been used in the original Latin, the edition of Dr. Tafel, but the wnter is not aware that any marked discrepancy will be found with the translated copies. It has sometimes been neces- sary to pause and consider whether a state or a thing was to be understood in the employment of certain abstract terms, but the general principle already referred to has been kept in view, namely, that celestial and spiritual things are nothing without their subjects, though sometimes spoken of in the abstract— not only for philosophical reasons, but lest they should be re- garded as man's own (4380). Such abstract terms as -the celestial,- " the spiritual,- -the divine," &c., have seemed to the wnter quite unobjectionable in the English language when so much reason can be shown for using them in a system of doctrine. It is only occasionally, therefore, that he has sup- plied the substantive -principle" or any other that seemed appropriate. The sixth subdivision of the article Language treats of the Hebrew language as used in the Word, on which it may be necessary to remark, that the Hebrew words and proverbs there collected are only examples of a law which is really common to a much larger number. The same word, for example, which denotes a horse or horseman (Gen. 1. 9; explained A, C, 6534 Exod. xiv. 26, 28 ; explained A. C, 8224, 8230. Jer. iv. 29 • I Sam. viii. 11 ; 2 Sam. i. 6 ; Is. xxi. 7, 9 ; xxviii. 28), signifies to define or determine, to give distinct intelligence. This and numerous other instances of a symbolic value in the words of the Hebrew tongue are not noted by Swedenborg, who gives the spiritual sense of the Word, as a general rule, without com- ment upon the structure of the literal. The instances collected m the place mentioned are simply the few upon which he has passed the remark. The word compare, which is of frequent occurrence in the following pages, indicates generally another method of ex- plaining the same thing, or some collateral argument or illus- tration which maybe consulted with advantage; but also, in XIV NOTE. some particular instances, a very necessary correction of the idea expressed in either of the passages taken separately. The abbreviations made use of are ilL for illustrated, marking pas- sages where the subject is set forth with the necessary eluci- dation ; sh, for shown, where texts are collected from the Word ; ex, for explained ; and br. for briefly, which is often used there- fore in combination with the foregoing. In some instances the sense expressed is to be gathered from several of the numbers cited, but it is more generally contained, and often with some instructive difference, in each of them. By way of conclusion, it may be useful to advise the stranger, as yet unacquainted with the internal sense of the Word, into whose hands this volume may fall, that it is only a fragment of a dictionary to the spiritual language of ideas, which is after all as much greater and richer than these defini- tions as the language of an epic composition is superior to the same words in a vocabulary. See how the Word in its proper living form vanishes from the understandings of those who are not yet illustrated, and what illustration consists in. A, C, 10,551 : Exod. xxxiii. 8—10. E. B. Canonbury, 30th April, 1853. I INDEX. A. ABI AARON [Aharon]. Denotes the doctrine of good and of truth, 6998, 7089 : and the truth of doctrine which proceeds mediately from the Lord, 7009. When Moses and Aaron are named together, Moses denotes the Word in the internal sense, and Aaron doctrine thence derived, 7089. Moses also denotes the internal law, or internal truth ; and Aaron the external law, or external truth, 7382. Aaron denotes the doctrine of truth from the internal sense of the Word, and Hur the truth of that doctrine, 9424. Aaron represents the Lord as to divme good. His sons, the divine truth proceeding from divine good, 9805---9813. See Priest. The priesthood of Aaron, of his sons, and of the Levites, represents the work of the Lord's salvation in suc- cessive order, 10,017. Aaron and his garments represent the superior heavens, thus the celestial kingdom; and his sons and their garments the inferior heavens, thus the spiritual kingdom, 10,068. Aaron (Mo- ses being absent) denotes the external of the Word, of the church, and of worship, separate from what is internal, ill, 10,397. That Moses is the internal, 10,468. See Hur. ABADDON, signifies perdition, ' 7643. ABDICATION. The abdication of bodily gratifications, or volun- tary poverty and misery, is not the self-denial which the Lord requires, 945, 1947. External delights, however, are only so far good as thev involve spiritual ends, 395 1 . o j ABDOMEN. Concerning certain spirits who have influx into the abdominal parts, 5378, 5724. ABEL [Habel], signifies charity, 342, 374, 9263. His death, the extinction of charity by Solafidianism, 369. See Cain. ABHORRENCE. See Aversion. ABIB. This month denotes the beginnina: of a new state, 8053. 9291, 10,659. o e > » ABIDE, to [commorari, seumorari]. See to Inhabit, to Dwell, to Tarry. ABIHU. See Nadab. ABILITY [potentid]. See Power. ABIMAEL. A ritual of that branch of the ancient church derived from Eber, 1245 — 1247. ABIMELECH [Ahimelechus'], the king of Gerar, or the king of the Philistines, signifies the doctrine of faith as to things rational, 2504, 2505, 2509, 2510, 3365, 3391 ; the nature of which is described, 3391, 3447. Hence all those are signified by Abimelech, who are m the doctrine of faith, and regard spiritual truths or the ra- tional form of truths in knowledges, 3391, 3392. In the supreme sense, the Lord Himself perceived in all doctrine is represented by li 2 ABR Abimelech, 3393. Concerning Abimelech, Ahusath, and Phicol, see 3447 — and Sarah, 2564, 2569 — the well of water and his covenant with Abraham, 2720. See Gerar, Philistea. ABOMINATION. The separation of perverted principles from goods, 6052. Hence it signifies infernal filthiness and defilement, 7454. The abomination of desolation is the state of the church when there is no love and no charity, 2454. ABORTION. See Nativity, to Bring-forth. ABOVE [supra]. The interior is expressed by what is above or superior, 2148, 3084, 4598, 5146, 8325. To look above is to regard the good of one's neighbour and country with a view to the Lord's kingdom, and to look beneath is to regard nothing but self and the world, 7814 — 7821. See Charity. From superior states the inferior may be seen, but not contrariwise, 8937. ABRAM. Abram was an idolater, and knew not Jehovah, 1356, 7194. He worshipped other gods, and the god Schaddai, 1992, 2559, 3667, 7194. Abram signifies the interior or rational man, 1732, 1741. Abram the Hebrew, the interior man serving the internal, 1702, 1703, or the Lord's spiritual principle to which the internal man was con- joined, 1741. Abram signifies the Lord's internal man ; the rational being signified by Isaac and the natural by Jacob, 1893, 3245, 6098. The age and state signified by the number of his years when Jehovah appeared, 1988, 1989; and by his journeying, 2501. As Abram re- presented the Lord, he also represented many things which regard the Lord, as the celestial church, the celestial man, &c., 1965. In heaven they are ignorant of Abram as a person, 1834, 1S76, 1989. He was called Abraham, the letter H being inserted by derivation from the divine name Jehovah, that he might represent the divine of the Lord, 1416, 2010, 3251. Abraham represents the human principle of the Lord as to good, Sarah as to truth, 2172, 2198. Abraham also de- notes the Lord's divine human, 2833, 2836. If the historicals were the Word from any other sense but the internal sense, many would be regarded as saints and gods, as Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, for exam- ple, whereas, in the other life, there is nothing more in them than in others, 3229. Abraham represents the Lord's divine spiritual, 3236. Concerning Abraham and Keturah, that their sons represent the Lord's spiritual kingdom in the doctrine of good, 3239—3245. Abraham represented the Lord as to the Divine itself, which is compared with the representation of the Lord by Isaac and Jacob, 3245, 3251. He also represented the divine human, which is called the son, but the divine human that was from eternity, 3251. To sit down with Abra- ham, Isaac, and Jacob, is to be with the Lord, and to come into Abraham's bosom is to be in the Lord, 3805. Jehovah God of Abra- ham, signifies the divine of the Lord which Abraham represents, 3439. Jehovah the God of thy father Abraham, signifies the Lord, that from him is good, 3703. Abram represents the genuine church as existing with those who have the Word, 3778, 4206, 4207 ; Terah, his father, havmg represented the common stock from which that church and also the church of the Gentiles is derived, 3778. The sojourning of Abra- ham and Isaac when Jacob came to them at Hebron signifies the Divine ^^self with the Divine Rational and the Divine Natural, 4615. By Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the representative sense' are signified ACC 3 the celestial, the spiritual, and the natural principles in man, as in the supreme sense they signify the divine itself, the divine radonir and the divine natural m the Lord, 6098, 6185. These three ii the Lord and in the church make one, 6185.

The absence of the Lord is ABSTRACTION. The natural mind cannot by any mere abstrac- tion of thought perceive that which is celestial, 5110^ The natura principle of Itself perceves nothing, but its faculty of perception ?s from a principle prior to itself. 6040. In spiritual speech the ideas of X thought are abstracted from persons, and are determined to the truths and good m man. 6040. To think specifically of persons, is to with! draw the mind from a universal idea, consequently from wi dom. 6653.

Unless divine good were accommodated to reception in heaven, heaven could not exist, for no angel can sustain the flame proceeding from divine love, 8644, 8922, 9956. All things are reduced to order, that is accommodated, when mediate truths are subordinate to truth immediately from the divine, 8731. The Lord as to the divine itself which is called the Father, and as to the divine human, which is called the Son, is the divine love it- self, thus the divine good itself; but the Lord as heaven, which is beneath the Lord as a sun, is the divine truth ; but this divine truth contains divine good accommodated to the reception of angels and spirits, 10,196. ACHAN, The deed of, and its signification, 5135. See Vessel. ACHOR, Valley of [yallis Achoris]. See Sharon. ACKNOWLEDGE, to [agnoscere]. It is one thing to know, an- other thing to acknowledge, and yet another to have faith, 896, 4319, 5664. The acknowledgment and true worship of the Lord is to obey and do his commandments, 10,143, 10,153 10,578, 10,645, 10,829. ACQUISITION. External knowledges and affections are so called, 1435, 1717, or truths acquired sensually, which form the scientific principle from which man thinks, 1435. Also celestial and spiritual good after temptations, 1851. Acquisition is predicated of truths, and substance of good, 4105. Goods and truths in common are so called, 4391. It signifies the good of truth, and purchase denotes truth, 4487. Goods and truths procured are called acquisitions, 6017. Also truths producing good, 6049. ACT, to [agere]. Reaction derives its force from the active cause which it reciprocates, 6262. The conjunction of good and truth illus- trated by action and reaction, 10,729. See Regeneration. The essential principle of activity is all the good of love and charity, 1561. ACTION. See to Act. Actions are all qualified by the ruling thought and intention of the mind, 3796, 5130, 5949. ACTIVITY [activu7n]. See to Act. ADAH and ZILLAH, signify the beginnincr of a new church, 405, 409, 413, 421. ABXM. [Adani]. See Man (homo), Adam's nakedness signifies the purity of the internal man, or the state of innocence of the celestial church, 9960. See Nakedness. ADAMANT or DIAMOND [adamas]. See Precious Stones. ADD, to [addere]. Joseph being named from a word signifying to collect and to add, denotes the spiritual kingdom saved by the Lord's advent, and made into one fold with the celestial ; hence, fructification and multiplication, 3969. The common signification of increase is denoted by the verb to add, 4692. ADHERE, to [adhcErere]. In the supreme sense, it signifies love and mercy ; in the internal sense, charity ; in the external sense, conjunction, ex. 3875. It also signifies celestial love, and conjugial love ; but in this case it is expressed by a different word in the original, 3875. ADJOIN, to [adjungere]. Spiritual good cannot be conjoined to those who have been from infancy in the mere externals of the church, but only adjoined, 8981. See Conjunction.

The most filthy of them induce a weariness of life 5723 By the prohibited degrees of marriage, are signified various kinds of ( 6 AFF Hi profanations, 6348. The hell of those of the church who have lived in faith separate from charity, and in a life of evil, is under the hell of adulterers, the reason, 8137. To commit adultery, whoredom, and scortation, in the spiritual sense, is to pervert the goods and truths of faith, consequently to apply the Word to confirm evils and falses, 8904. Whoredoms signify perversions of truth, and witchcrafts, the falses thence derived, 9188. Marriages are most holy, but adulteries most profane, 9961, 10,174. The delights of marriage flow in from heaven, the pleasures of adultery ascend from hell, 10,174. Those who take delight in adulteries, no longer believe those things which appertain to heaven and the church, because the love of adultery is derived from the marriage of the evil and false, which is infernal, 10,175. See Harlot. ADULTS. Their state in regard to spiritual things compared with the state of infants and boys, 1453. Those who die in infancy and boyhood attain to the stature of adults in the other life, 2304. ADVENT [adventum'] . Every coming of the Lord is a beginning to those who are regenerated, and the ending of those who are vastated, 728. The last judgment with every one is when the Lord cometh, as well in general as in particular, 900. The first advent of the Lord was not to save the celestial, but the spiritual. When the celestial church began to decay, a prediction was made concerning the Lord's coming into the world, because the Lord foresaw that the celestial church would entirely perish from off the earth, 2661. When the end of the old church, and the beginning of the new, is at hand, then is the last judg- ment, and also the coming of the Son of Man, 4230, 4333, 4535, 6895, 9807. At the time immediately preceding the Lord's coming, the in- fernal crew raged almost without control, infesting and attempting to subdue all, 8289. ADVERSARIES [meWci]. See Enemy. AFAR [longinquum']. To see from afar, signifies to perceive re- motely, 4723. To stand afar off, signifies removal from things internal, thus from good and truth, sh. 8918. To bow down, or worship afar off, denotes humiliation and adoration from the heart, and in such case the influx of the Lord, 9377. Afar off is predicated of truth, 9666. See Nigh, to Approach. AFFECTATION. See Simulation. How the affectation of ele- gance in speech and learning obscures the things treated of, 6924 : com- pare 3348, 6621. See Eloquence. AFFECTION. See Love, Charity. There is the affection of good and the affection of truth. What the distinction is between them, 1904, 1997. All affections have gestures corresponding to them, 2153. The celestial angels perceive the Word as it is in the internal sense ac- cording to affection ; but the spiritual angels according to thing, 2157, 2275. The quality of those who are in the affection of good, and the quality of those who are in the affection of truth, 2425, 2429. The celestial angels, from the affections involved in the interior sense of the Word, form to themselves so many lights of affection and perception rather than ideas, 2157, 2275. Affections are what excite truths and falses, 2487. Celestial freedom is of the affection of truth and good, and infernal freedom of the affection of false and evil, 2870, 2873. See Li- berty. The conjunction of truth with good is effected by affection, 3024. The first affection of truth in the natural man is not the affection AFF 7 of genuine truth, but the affection of truth comes afterwards, and is gradually substituted for the former, 3040. Truth, without affection does not enter, still less inhere in the memory, 3066, 3336. Affections are signified by infants, damsels^ young women, and daughters, but with a difference, 3067. See Infant, &c. Every affection comprises things innumerable, for it involves within itself the whole life of a man from his very infancy to the time of its acquisition, 3078, 3189. In every affection, there are many subordinate affections, and those in an incom- prehensible form, 3189. Affection always adjoins itself to the things QQQ^ ^'^i!"S'"2f^^'^ ^"^ *^^ memory, and is reproduced along with them, t u Ihe affection of good is adjoined to truth in the natural man, by the Lord, and by the affection of good truths are reproduced; and thus falses and evils are removed, 3336. The quality of a man's attections may be known from his end in entertaining them, 3796. All affections are bonds, either external or internal, 3835. Truths are nothing, unless attended with some affection, ilL 3849. Ce- lestial affections are altogether incomprehensible and ineffable, 3839, ^«o7. Affections become milder when they ascend towards interior things, or towards heaven, 3909. Affection is the continuity of love according to its varied manifestations in different cases, 3938 at the end. All affections have their delights, ill, 3938. See Delight. All conjunction is wrought by affections, 3939— as the implanta- tion and conjunction of the love of good and truth, 4018. The stronger the affection, the stronger the conjunction, 4018. Affection IS insinuated by refusal, 4366, 4368. The affection of truth appears to be from truth, but it is from good, 4373. The genuine affection of truth consists in the willing and desiring to know the verimost truths of taith for the sake of good ; the spurious affection of truth in desiring their acquisition for the sake of reputation, or gain, &c., 8993. Those who are in truth without affection are signified by the men-servants of the Israelites ; and those who are in the affection of truth, but not genuine, by maid-servants ; the difference explained, 8994. There is an extension of the thoughts and affections into heaven and hell, ac- cording as they are good or evil. This extension or nexus, however, IS by influx from the societies and not to them, 6600. To counterfeit affections resembling celestial from the proprium is infernal, 10,309 bee Abuse, Simulation. AFFINITY [affinitas']. The societies of heaven are circumstanced comparatively as consanguinities and aflSinities upon earth, 685 • but they are those of love and faith, 917. In all things appertaining to nian there are consanguinities and affinities, 2508, 2524, 2556 ; and they are derived from the celestial marriage, or from celestial love, 2508, 2739. Those who know what good is may know innumerable things concerning the proximities and afiSnities of good and truth, such as they are in heaven, 3612. All consanguinity in heaven is from good, 3815. All consanguinities and relationships in the other life, take place according to good, 4121. To contract affinities denotes union, 4450. Love makes consanguinity, and things which are more remote affinity. At the ultimate boundaries affinities expire, 5530. AFFIRMATIVE [affimiativum']. There must be the affirmative of truth before the influx of good from the Lord can be received, 2568, 3913. A state affirmative of good and truth is first in the order of 8 AHO man's regeneration, but it takes the last place in the regenerate man, 3923. What it is to think from affirmative and from negative princi- ples, 2588. They who consult scientifics concerning things divine, if they are in the affirmative principle, confirm them ; if they are in the negative principle, they invalidate them, and at length believe nothing, 4760, 2588. The learned more than the simple do thus, and have less belief, because they consult scientifics from a negative principle, and thus deprive themselves of interior sight, 4760. AFFLICTION. A day of affliction denotes man's miserable state in the other life, 34. Affliction signifies temptation, 1846. To afflict the soul is to compel one's self to do good, 1937, 1947.

Concerning the successive states of man according to ages ; that the first state is from birth to the fifth year, or the state of ignorance and of innocence in ignorance, which is called infancy ; the second state, from that period to the twentieth year, is the state of instruction and of science, and is called childhood ; the third state is to the sixtieth year, and is the state of intelligence, and is called youth and manhood ; the fourth state, which is the last, is from the age of sixty to the end^ of life, and is the state of wisdom and of innocence in wisdom, 10,225. The progress of man's regeneration in those succes- sive states according to ages, 3603. AGE, PERIOD OF time [scecidum]. When it relates to the church it denotes duration to the end, when to heaven and to the Lord, what is eternal ; it is predicated in general of every church, specifically of the celestial church.

Everything appertainmg to the altar and to worship thereby, represented and signified somewhat, 4489. The altar signifies the holy principle of worship, 4541. To build an altar, in the supreme sense, denotes sanctification, 4558. An altar also denotes what is built for a witness and memorial, sh, 8623. An altar of earth is a principal representative of the worship of the Lord from good, but an altar of stone from truth, 8935, 8940. The altar of Jehovah is a principal representative of the worship of the Lord, as above ; they who acted Irom deceit or hypocrisy were to be taken from the altar and slain, 9014 at the end. Altar denotes a representative of the Lord as to divine good, but statue as to divine truth, 9388, 9389, 9714. Hence the altar signifies essential worship as to divine good, 9714. The ashes ot the altar denote such things as are to be removed after use, 9723. Ihe grate of net-work, which surrounded the altar, signifies the sensual principle, ill 9726.

To come near to the altar, denotes to represent all things of worship from celestial good, 10,242, 10,245. The altar was the principal representative of the Lord and of his wor- ship from good, 10,642. By the altars of the nations is meant idola- trous worship, 10,642. The vessels of the altar denote scientific truths administering to good, 9724, 9725, 10,344. AMALEKITES [Amalekita]. This nation signifies the falses by which truths are assaulted, 1679. The false grounded in interior evil, sh, 8593. The genius or nature of the evil spirits so called, sh. 8622, 8625.

ANATOMY [anatomica scientia]. The author, when reflecting on anatomical subjects, was led to his conclusions by angels ; the latter, however, did not reflect on anatomical things, but on their spiritual correspondences, 2992. Compare 3347, 3626. AH the viscera and organs are disposed in series and in series of series, analogically as goods and truths, and the arrangement of heaven in societies, 10,303, 10,030.

Names by which the angels who were with the Lord during the spiritual combats of his early boyhood are signified, 1705, 1752. They are not the names of angels but they represent them, and signify the goods and truths which form angels, 1754. o j ^ A^GEL [angelus]. See also Heaven. Every man is governed by spirits and angels from the Lord, 50, 227, 697, 968. The author^s communication with spirits and angels, and that man was so created that he might speak with them, 5, 67—70, 1880. See Speech. lleayen and earth from first creation were united, 1880. When man is raised up, the celestial angels hold the province of the heart, and two 1«9 i«o ^^'^l^^^"/^]- Thes^a^e succeeded by spiritual angels, 182—189. The angels do not forsake the raised soul, but the latter IS desirous to depart from them, 182, 314-316. The celestial angels perceive all things of love from love, and hence also, but with a difference which they themselves know, the things which are of faith. Their speech also is derived from love and differs from that of the spiritual angels, 202. The latter speak from faith, or conscience, vivified by the Lord, and formed into a perception resembling the celestial, 203. The discourse of the celestial angels is more ineffable therefore, 880. It IS more copious, for the celestial angels are in the fount and oriein of thought and language, 1647. The difference between the speech of KlfS"^f^%'P'^^^^^^ ^^^2.

See Speech, Tongue. The state of the angels when they do not speak from themselves, but from the Lord, 1 740. lemptation and para of conscience is from the combat of spirits and angels, 227. Angels perceive exquisitely what enters into man, „: iii!f angels attendant, on man attend to nothing but ends and uses, 1645 The life of the angels consists in the goods of charity and in use, 454, 456 696, 997. There are three heavens, of spirits, of angehc spirits and of angels; in each of which there are both celestial and spiritual 459. The angels of the three heavens are subordinate to each other, but not under the ordination of authority, 1752, 1802 The angels are nearer to the Lord, and more remote from him, or interior and exterior, 1802. The man of the most ancient church dis- coursed with angels; those who discoursed afterwards did so in another manner, 784. It is dangerous to man to have heaven opened to him. and to discourse with spirits and angels, unless he is principled in faith and chanty, /84 The angels appear clothed, 165. They moderate punishments in the other Hfe, but cannot take them away, 967 The angels know no other than that evil is separated from them, but it is only quiescent; they are withheld from evil and held in good by the i^ord, 1581. The Lord appears as a sun to the celestial angels, and as amoontothespmtual, 1053, 1521, 1529-1531. Angels were atten- dant on the Lord when he was in combat, 1705, 1752. On such occa- 12 ANG sions the angels had all their power from the Lord, 1 752. Angels are named from their quality as to good, 1705, 1754. Angels have dominion over evil genii and spirits, 1755. All spirits and angels have been men, 1880. They see nothing which is in the solar world, 1521, 1880. They saw, however, through the author's eyes, which appeared a miracle to them, 1880. Spirits and angels have every sense except taste in more exquisite perfection than man, 322, 1630, 1880 — 1883. The evil cannot endure the presence of an angel, 1 27 1 , 1 398. Spirits and angels are organical substances, 1533. The LORD Himself is meant by angels in the Word, but what of the Lord appears from the series, 1925, 2821. Why the one Lord is signified by many, 3035. The two angels seen by Lot, signify the divine human and the holy proceeding of the Lord, 2320. When the Lord speaks by angels, they know no other than that they are the Lord, 1925; the reason, 1745. The angels, inasmuch as they are in celestial and spiritual love, are in wis- dom and intelligence, and see all things which are beneath, 2572. Spirits and angels perceive the interior things of the thoughts of man, 1931. Angels dwell with those who are in the goods of faith, 2268. Men who are in love and charity, have angelic wisdom in themselves, but they can only perceive it obscurely so long as they live in the body, 2494. The internal sense of the Word is for the angels ; and things therein are precious to them, which appear trifling to man, 2540, 2541, 2545, 2551, 2574. Many things, in the internal sense of the Word, fall into the understanding of angels, because they are in the light of heaven, which do not fall into the appreheusiou of man, because he is in the light of the world, 2618, 2619, 2629. The speech of the celes- tial angels is much more copious than that of spiritual angels, because from the affections involved in the interior sense of the Word they form to themselves lights of affection and perception rather than ideas, while the spiritual are determined by the significations of things, 2157, 2275. With what charity and joy they who come into heaven are received by the angels, 2131. What angels are successively attendant on infants and boys, 2303. What angels insinuate beautiful dreams, 1977. Con- cerning the memory of the angels and their state in regard to the past, 2493. Innumerable things are comprehended by the angels, which cannot come to the understanding of men, 2786, 2795, 2796, 2802. All changes of state, as to things voluntary, and also as to things intel- lectual, are rendered perceivable by the Lord to spirits and angels, 2796. Every man is attended both by evil spirits and angels, 2887, 2888. The angels enjoy celestial freedom. See Liberty. The angels regard man as a brother, but evil spirits regard him as a vile slave, 2890. Angel of the Lord, denotes the divine Providence, 3039. The angels comprehend innumerable things, where man does not com- prehend even the most general, an example, 3314. The thoughts and discourses of the angels are as the internal things in the body in respect to external things, 3347. The superiority of the wisdoni of angels above that of man, 3404, 3405. Angels dwell in the affections of every one, 3464. Spirits and angels appear as men, because their interiors aspire to the human form, 3633. Angels of God denote divine truth, 3701. Angels are forms of love and charity, 3804, 4735, 4985, 9879. Men in the world are in the society of such spirits and angels as agree with their own quahty, 4067, 4073, 4077.

APOSTLES Upostolil What is signified by the apostles judging the twelve tribes of Israel, 2 1 29. The apostles cannot judge even one thing appertaining to man, 2129. 2553. The disciples of the Lord reorfsented all who are of the church, 3354. The apost es believed ZuC-'e to become great in heaven 3417. /he tweve apostles plainly signified all things of faith, as well its good as its truth, 3488. \h. 3858. See Numbers (twelve) . They had no other oP'"'"" *»«"*' concerning the Lord, than the Jews at that time had and at this day have, concerning the Messiah whom they expect 38o/, and also concerning the celestial kingdom and what is celestial, than as of a terrestrial kingdom, 3857. It is said of the tribes and of the apostles that they are to judge, but the truths are denoted which are signified by them! 6397 Disciple denotes truth of life, but prophet truth of doctrine, 10,683. _ , , , • *„ u:™ ;<■ ^\„ APPEAR, to, [p.pparere']. By Jehovah appearing to him, is sig- nified thought from the Divine, 3367, 3438. APPEARANCE \_apparentia-\. See Fallacies. Concerning ap- pearances of truth which are adopted as if they were truths, 1832. In the Word of the Lord many things are expressed according to appear- ances, 589, 626, 735. 926. 1838, 1874. The truths aPP/ehen-l/d by man kre appearances. 2196. 2203. 2209. 2242. The doctnne of faith must be clothed with such appearances as are of human thought and affection. 2719, 2720. Pure truths are not given with man. nor in- deed with angels, but only in the Lord, 3207. . The appearances of truth, appertaining to angels and men who are in good, are received by the Lord as truths, 3207. Examples of such appearances. 3207. Appearances, or angelic and human truths, are of three degrees. 3357, 3360 3362. Truths divine flow-in through the appearances apper- taining to angels and men ; otherwise they could not. in any JJ^e. be apprehended, 3362. Thus they are in those appearances, 3364 ; and by being within them effect the conjunction of man with the Lord, 3365. Doctrinals are appearances of truth, or celestial and spiritual vessels containing divine truths, 3364, 3365. Rational truth and aPPe«™"«^^ of truth are the same, 3368. They exist by the influx of truth divine from the Lord, into the rational principle, and thence into thmgs natural, where they are presented as an image of many things together in a mirror ; those things which are in heaven, appertaming to the angels, are presented in the worid of spirits, hence by representations, 3368. Appearances are the truths which appertain to man : »» example from space or place, 3387. Appearances are acknowledged W't"?ths. be- cause they are of such a nature as that the divine can be in them, 3387. Concerning the appearances of a superior degree, in whieti are the angels, exemplified by their conception of eternity from state. 3404. Even the Lord himself was in appearances of truth when in the ma- ternal humanity, and that he put them off. 3405. The appearances of truth of a higher degree, immensely exceed those of a lower m perfec- tion and abundance. 3405. Appearances of truth, ma lower degree, exemplified by the case of being said to be made great m heaven. 3417.

Serial remarks concerning the grand man, and correspondence with the cerebrum and cerebellum, 1039 — ' 4055. All things in the brain are according to a heavenly form, 4040 — 4042. According to that form, there are gyrations and circumvolu- tions in the brain, 4041. This is the reason that there is descent from the heavens into the world, and ascent from the world into the heavens by man, 4042. In the heavens there are heavens and societies which have reference to the cerebrum and cerebellum in common atid in parts, 4045. The quality of those which have reference to the dura mater, 4046.

The expression, " Father of cattle," (Gen. iv. 20,) signifies the good of love, 415, 1550. Cattle is denoted in the original by a word which also signifies acquisition, hence it signifies truths when opposed to flock, by which goods are signified, 4105, 6049. Cattle signifies the good of truth, 6126, or the good derived from truth, 6045. Also the truths and goods of faith, 7502, 7506. Cattle signifies the good of truth, because it includes both the flock and the herd as well as horses, camels, mules, and asses, 6016. Cattle of the flock and cattle of the herd signify the good of truth interior and exterior, 6134. See Flock, Herd. By cattle under this head are meant all laboring animals, whether of the flock or herd, and also camels, horses, mules, and asses ; the latter signify such things as relate to truths, the former such as relate to goods; hence cattle, which denotes the whole, signifies truths from which is good. See 6049 and the following article. CATTLE, THE SMALL KIND OF (pccus-udis) , dcuotc the goods and truths of the church and of doctrine, 3786, 3993. Also innocence, 7832, 7837. Or the truth of innocence, 8078. When cattle are meant by acquisition the good of truth is signified, 4487. See pre- ceding ARTICLE. It denotes interior goods, because lambs, sheep, kids, goats and rams, are meant, 6049, 9099, 9103. See the name OF EACH animal. Cattle signify truth and good before regeneration, which become good and truth after regeneration, and are then signified by flocks, 9135. See Flocks. CAUL, THE [reticulum], on the liver, signifies the interior good of the external or natural man, 10,031. Also, that good purified, 10,073. See also 5943. CAVE [speluncd], of a mountain, signifies obscure good, or such as is of a false principle, or such as it is in temptations, 2463. The cave of the field of Machpelah denotes an obscure principle of faith, 2935, 2971, 6548, 6551. See Field. Hole or fissure of a rock, signifies the obscurity and falsity of faith, 10,582. CAUSE. The end is the all in the cause and efl^ect, 3562. See End. The quality of correspondence illustrated from end, cause, and eff*ect, when the prior is all in all and is perfectly represented in the posterior, 5131. The eff*ect is not the cause, but it is the cause so formed and clothed that it may act as a cause in a lower sphere ; the cause must be continually in the eflect, otherwise it is dissipated, 5711. 48 CEL CEL 40 III The case is the same with the cause in respect to the end, 5/11. The internal, or the efficient, clothes itself with such things in the external, or the effect, as enable it to be effective there, 6275, G284, 6299. The whole man is a resemblance of his will and of his understanding thence derived, illustrated from end, cause, and effect, 10,076. [Concerning causes of disease originating in diseases or passions of the mind, see note (s) § 74, in the Treatise on the Worship and Love of God.] CEDAR [cedriis]. Cedar trees signify spiritual men, 776 ; also, spiritual things or truths of faith, 886. The glory of Lebanon, celes- tial and spiritual things, 2162. The rational principle is called a cedar of Lebanon, 119. The wood of the cedar, signifies niternal spiritual truth, 7918; hence it denotes the internal means of purifica- tion ; hyssop, the external, sh. 7918. The cedar signifies the spiritual church, 9472. See Shittim-wood. Lebanon signifies the spiritual church: cedar the truth of that church, 10,199. CELESTIAL [cceleste et ccelestis]. See Love, Charity. The celestial are distinguished from the spiritual by regarding the goods of faith, while the latter regard its truths, 1155, 1577. The celestial and spiritual principles constitute one in the internal man, when the latter is derived from the former, ill, 1577. The celestial principle is love to the Lord, and towards the neighbour, 1824, 2048, 2227. What interior and exterior celestial things are; also what celestial- spiritual things are, 1824. The celestial, the spiritual, and the natural succeed each other by derivation, 775, 880, 1096, ilL 9992. See In- flux. The celestial man is a likeness, and does good from love, 51, 52, 1013. He is the seventh day, the Sabbath, or rest, because in him spiritual labour or combat has ceased, 84—87. The quality of a dead man, of a spiritual man, and of a celestial man, discriminated, 81. In what manner the celestial church became degenerate in the last posterity, 310. See Church. The celestial angels do not even utter those things which are of faith, because they perceive how the case is from love, 202, 337. They do not discuss truths like the spi- ritual, 3246, 4448. There is given a parallelism between the Lord and man as to things celestial, 1831, not as to things spiritual, 1832. Spiritual good is derived from celestial good, 2227. Celestial men alone can receive the influx of divine good, because it flows into the voluntary part; but spiritual men receive divine truth, 2069. The difference between celestial truth and spiritual truth is according to this reception ; hence the Lord appears as a sun to the celestial angels, and as a moon to the spiritual, 2069. The celestial are in the affection of good from good, the spiritual in the affection of good from truth, 2088. The former is the good of love, the latter the good of faith, 2669, 2708. The celestial love their neighbour more than themselves, but with the spiritual the love of self and the world continually flows in from their voluntary part, 2715. The celestial are they who say *yea, yea, and nay, nay,* and do not confirm truths by reasonings, 2715, 3246, 4448, 9166. The celestial, from the good and truth in which they are principled, can see indefinite things, but the spiritual, inasmuch as they dispute whether it be so, cannot come to the first boundary of the light of the celestial, exemplified, 2718. The Lord pame into the world that he might save the spiritual ; there would have been no need to come for the sake of the celestial, 2661, 3235. They who have conscience do not swear, still less they who have perception, or the celestial, hence swearing is forbidden by the Lord, 2842. See ^o Swear, Conscience, Perception. The celestial principle is the good which flows-in from the Lord, and the spiritual principle is the truth thence derived, 3166. It is the same divine truth which appears to the celestial as celestial, and to the spiritual as spiritual, 3235, 9995. Both the celestial church and the spiritual have good and truth, but with a difference, 3240. The celestial church is represented by a wife, the spiritual by a concubine ; and concerning the sons of the latter, and their adoption by the Lord, 3246. The spiritual principle is the light of trutli from the Lord flowing into the rational and the natural, and the celestial principle is the flame of good from the Lord, 3374. In heaven there are two kingdoms, the celestial and the spiritual ; the celestial are in love, thus in a state of peace and of innocence above others, 3887. The celestial belong to the province of the heart, but the spiritual to the province of the lungs, 3887. The difference be- tween the celestial and the spiritual pulse, explained, 3885, 3886. The most ancient church was celestial ; but the ancient church and the Christian church, spiritual, 4448. The Lord flowed-in by an internal or prior way with the men of the most ancient church, and by an ex- ternal or posterior way with the men of the ancient church, and also with the Christian, ill, 4489, 4493. Hence the man of the most an- cient church was altogether of another and diverse genius from the man of the ancient church, 4493. See Church. Those things which are of truth are denoted by the term spiritual, and those which are of good by the term celestial ; such terms must be brought into use for want of others so adequate to express the sense, 4585. The spiritual of the celestial is for an intermediate between the external or natural man, and the internal or rational, 4585, 4592, 4594. The Lord alone was born a spiritual-celestial man, 4592, 4594. Celestial things are the head, spiritual things the body, natural things the feet, and it is in this order they succeed and flow-in, see Man, 4938, 4939. The celestial like the spiritual is predicated of the external or natural man, as well as of the internal or rational, 4980. The celestial-natural is good in the natural, 4980. The regeneration of the man of the celestial church is by things of the will, and of the man of the spiritual church by things of the understanding, 5113. The celestial of the spiritual principle in the Lord, which is represented by Joseph, was that good of truth, or truth containing good, in which is the divine, 5307, 5331 ; and that it cannot be fully comprehended, 5332. To look backwards is to look from good in which the celestial are, to the doctrinals of faith, and thereby to leave good, sh, 5895 at the end, 5897 near the end. The celestial kingdom and the spiritual kingdom are conjoined by charity towards the neighbour, because charity is the external of the celestial kingdom, and the internal of the spiritual kingdom, 5922 : compare 6435, and see Mui ual Love. The truth of the celestial man is the good of charity, and this is called the truth of good, 6295. Those who are in celestial good do not fight, but evil spirits flee away from them, 6369, 6370. The spiritual are kept in order by the Lord mediately through the celestial, and also immeaiately, 6366. In like manner, the hells, 6370. Before the Lord's coining the human divine of the celestial kingdom was the 50 C H A C H A ii. J ii metliiim of life nnd Salvation, but afterwards the divine human, 6371 6372, 6373, In the former period the divine hnman was pre- sented in form through that kingdom, 6371, 6372. But whereas it was weak, and thence inordinate or impure, therefore the Lord came into the world, 6373. The celestial have innate powers from good, because in the voluntary part, 6367. Celestial things, in their order, were represented by bread, cakes, and wafers, of things unleavened, 9992. The orderly succession of the celestial, the spiritual, and the natural, illustrated from the heavens and from man, 9992. What is celestial is received in the will-principle, and what is spiritual m the intellectual, 9995. Celestial good is formed by truths in successive order, or, in the order of degrees, from the outermost, 10,2.12, 10,JO(». The Lord alone was a celestial man, 1434, lo4o. There are few who can become celestial men, because there are few with whom there is anything still entire in the will part, 6296. Celestial men have per- ception, because they are filled by the Lord with the spirit of wisdom, 9818. Celestial angels do not think from faith as the spiritual do, 9818. [Man becomes celestial when the celestial degree is opened m him. See Angelic Wisdom concerning the Divine Love and Wisdom, 345.1 By anointing the ark of the testimony, is signified to induce a representation of the divine principle of the Lord in celestial good, which is of the inmost heaven, 10,269. Bread denotes celestial good, and table spiritual good, 9545, 9684, 9685, 10,270. Divine worship from celestial good is not performed by prayers, but by truths from the heart, 10,295. The six days which precede the sabbath, denote the combats, which prepare for the celestial marriage, or conjunction with the Lord, which is rest, 10,360. The celestial marriage is also the conjunction of truth and of good with man, 10,367. Celestial and spiritual things are in the internal of the Word, of the church, and of worship, 10,547. Celestial and spiritual things fall into natural things, and form and constitute them, 10,547. Natural light, separate from celestial light, is mere darkness, 10,551. CENSER. See Incense. CENTRE [centrum]. See Middle. The Lord is the common centre, and every one is a centre of influxes in the heavenly form, 3633, 4225. When the natural man is illustrated by the light of heaven, and reduced to order, truths or things which consent are in the centre, and discordant things are rejected to the sides, 5128. The Lord from the centre, where he performs the work of purification, reduces to order whatsoever is disorderly and tumultuous in the cir- cumferences, 5396. Those things which are directly under intuition are in the midst, comparatively like those which are under the external sight, and such things are clear and delectable, 6068. See Middle. CEREBELLUM. See Brain. CEREBRUM. See Brain. CERBERUS. See Dog. CEREMONIES [ceremonia, seu ritualia], are of no moment by them- selves, 2342. See Rituals. CHAFF {palea]. Wheat denotes the good of love and charity; chaff that which is void of good, 3941. The good which a linan only thinks, and does not bring into life, is carried away in the other life like chaff before. the wind, 4881, 6208. Chaff or straw signifies the lowest scientifics, which are replete with fallacies, 7112, 7127, 7144. The delusive arguments and elegant discourses in favour of faith as the only means of salvation are only so much chaff or straw to make bricks, 7127, which bricks denote fictions and falses, 7112. See Straw, Stubble, Bulrush. CHAFER [bruchus']. See Caterpillar. CHAINS. Little Chains [catencSy catenula]. Chains signify things conjoined, or coherences of good, of truth, of falses, &c., ac- cording to the subject, 9852, 9879. The casting of silver chains, a nexus apparently resembling truths, 8932. CHALCEDONY. See Precious Stones. CHALDEA. Ur of the Chaldeans, signifies external worship in- teriorly profane and idolatrous, 1368, 1816. Chaldea denotes worship, in which is the false principle, 1368. Babel denotes the profanation of good, or of celestial things, and Chaldea the profanation of truth, or of spiritual things, 1368. Babel and Chaldea signify the love of self and the world, 1691. They are Chaldeans who are in knowledge profaned with falses, 3079, 1613. And those also who are exteriorly holy, but interiorly in falses, 3901, 10,227. In like manner, daugh- ters of the Chaldeans, 4335. The daughters of Babylon are they who are interiorly profane and evil, 4335. CHAMBER [camera]. Concerning an obscure chamber where the deceitful are in darkness and plot deceits, 949. CHAMBERS, secret or inner [conclavia, seu penetralia]. Wilder- ness, and secret or inner chambers, when spoken of in an evil sense, signify truth and good vastated in the church, 3900. Closets and bed- chambers signify the interiors of man, 5694, 7353. See House. CHAMBERLAIN, the [cuhicularium] of Pharaoh, denotes the in- terior things of scientifics, 4789, 4965. Interior scientifics being such as accede closely to spiritual things, 4965. CHANCE casusy fortuitu]. See Fortune. CHANGE [mutatio]. Change of place signifies difference of state, 1463. Such changes are continual, both as regards affections and thoughts, 2796. They are variations of heat and light flowing-in from the Lord, 3862. With the unregenerate goods are not changed, but affections and their delights, 4136. With the regenerate, the states of good are changed even from infancy, 4136. The organical forms of the exterior memory are varied and changed according to states of affection and persuasions, 2487. Concerning the separation of spirits, and the consequent changes of state with the regenerate, 4110. See Vicissitude. To change raiment signifies to put on holy truths, 4545. CHANNEL [canalis]. See Water Pot. CHARACTER. See Mark. CHARIOT [currus]. The chariot of fire, by which Elijah As- cended, represented the doctrine of love and charity from the Word, and the horses the doctrine of faith, 2762. The chariot which went out from between two mountains of brass, signifies the doctrine of good, 3708. That chariot signifies doctrine, sh. 5321. Chariot of an ass signifies the congeries of particular scientifics; chariot of a camel, the congeries of general scientifics, both in the natural man, 3048. The waggon, cart, or carriage, on which the ark was set, re- presented the literal sense of the word, or doctrinais, as conveying in E 2 52 CH A CH A 53 tonml things, r>!)i:>. The carriages of Egypt signify doctrinals of scientifics, 5945. The horses of Pharaoh, or of the Egyptians, scien- tifics derived from a perverse intellectual principle ; the horsemen, iaise reasonings thence derived ; the chariots doctnnals of the false ; the armies falses, 8146, 8148. Chariots used for carriages, and chariots used for combat, denote doctrinals in each sense, but m the latter case prepared for conflict with falses ; from representatives in the other li|e, 8215. The tumult of chariots and the noise of wheels, signify false doctrinals, and fallacious sensual reasonings, 6015. ^ee >yHEKL. The spiritual sense contained in the letter represented to the author by a man in a chariot, 6212. . .i ^ /. 1 1 ^ CHARITIES [charites-] or Graces. The three graces m the fables of the ancients signify affections of good, 4966. CHARITY [charitas]— . . , , . . . I . ChaHty in life and Doctrine, Charity is love towards the^neigh- bour, 615. Love is a likeness, charity an image of God, 1 1 '^' ^J'^^'^y is the brother of faith, 367. Charity, not faith, is the superior, 363, 304. 332 1 . Charity is the good of faith, 654. Every increment of good and of truth is according to charity, 1016. No one is regenerated who is not endowed with charity, for from charity the new will is formed, 98 ). Wisdom, intelligence, and science are the sons of charitv, 1 2^0. l ne presence of the Lord is according to the state of love and charity, 904. They who are in charity have a law inscribed on themselves, and are every where accepted citizens, on earth as in the heavens, 1121. In^»^^a^f" all are viewed from charity, and the faith thence denved, 1258. Ihe delightful states of charity return in the other life, 823. They who exer- cise charitv from obedience are regenerated in the other life, 989. 1 bey who are without charity think nothing but evil of every man, and observe his evils, not his goods, 1079, 1080, 1088. Forms of hatred and of charitv cannot be together, 1 860. No one can be in the good of love and charity who does not acknowledge the divine human, and the ho y pro- ceeding ; hence these principles are not to be violated, 2359. AH love, charity, and mercy, and all good and truth, are from the Lord, 27a 1. All blessedness consists in good and truth, and these principles cannot flow-in from any other source than the Lord, as may be manifest to every one from the light of reason, 2363. He who is in love to the Lord, must needs be in love towards the neighbour, 2227. They who look to doctrinals, and not to Hfe, do not really believe what doctrine teaches concerning the soul, the life after death, &c., 24.54. Hence doctrinals ought to be looked at from love and chanty, and not from faith, 245 1. There is a doctrinal of charity and a doctrinal of faitli, and the former is at this day obliterated ; in the ancient church there was the doctrinal of charity, and from it was known what is meant by neighbour, woat oy the poor, what by the fatheriess, widows, &c., 2417. In what igporance of truth they are who are in no doctrinal ot charitv, 2435. Intelligence and wisdom increase immensely with those in the other life who are in charitv, 1941. During man*s regeneration the Lord meets and fills truth with the good of charity, 2063. Good is implanted and formed according to the quantity and quality of the truths of faith, 2190. The quality of those who are in the good ot charity, and of those who are not in the good of chanty, discnmmated. 2380. Some suppose themselves not to be in the good of charity when they are in it, some that they are in it when they are not, the reason, 2380. The difference between love and charity is the same as between celestial and spiritual men, 2023. See Celestial. Charity is exer- cised by those who are in the affection of truth, and thence in light, with discrimination according to good, 2425. The doctrine of charity teaches who is the neighbour, that in the supreme sense it is the Lord, and in the spiritual sense those who are principled in good and truth from him, 2425. See Neighbour. Those who live in the good of charity, and are ignorant of the truths of faith, are in the good of ignorance, 2280. See Good. Mutual love flows from conjugial love as a stream from its fountain, 2737 ; hence adulterers oppose themselves to the good of charity, and to the Lord, 2751. None can be admitted into heaven by thinking good, and by being instructed, unless they will what is good, 2401. Falses do not become conjoined with those who are in the good of charity, but only apply themselves, and are easily separated, 2863. There must be innocence and charity that truth may be conjoined, 3111. Good is not good, neither is it fruitful, until man is regenerated ; because, until this is tlie case, good has not in it its very soul, 3186. Charity towards the neighbour is a life according to the precepts of the Lord, 3249. He who lives in charity receives truths from the Lord suitable to his good, 3267. They who are not in charity, but only in the science of the knowledges of faith, cannot at all see in the^ Word the interior things which relate to love and charity, 3416, 3773, 3793. But the Word is unclosed or open, when love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour are regarded as principles, 3773, 3793. Charity, which appears only in an external form, and is not in the internal form, is not charity, nor ought it to be so called, but cha- rity itself ought to be in the internal form from the affection of good, 3776. To know or understand truth, to will truth, and to be affected with truth or charity, succeed each other in the regeneration, and those things are afterwards contained in charity, in their order, 3876, 3877. Charity seeks no recompense, but is from the affection, 3887. The delight of the affections of good and of truth, or the delight of charity, is unknown to those who are in the delight of evil and the false, 3938. See Delight. If men would only use their reason, they might know that love to God and charity towards the neighbour constitute the whole difference between men and beasts, and that they constitute the hea- venly life itself, 3957. Unless the doing good is conjoined with willing good and thinking good, there is no salvation ; that is, unless the exter- nal man be conjoined to the internal, 3987. All truths have respect to love and charity as their principle and end, and ought to be implanted in it, 4353. Heaven consists in love to the Lord, and in charity to- wards the neighbour, 4776. Charity towards the neighbour is the affection of good and truth, and the acknowledgment of self as nothing but evil and the false ; these things in the internal sense are contained in the Lord's words. Matt. xxv. 35, 36, 4956. Hence those who are in true charity attribute no merit to themselves, 6388 — 6393. See Merit. Charity or good is in the first place, and truth in the second, and how much good there is in the church when this order prevails, 6272, 6273. While man is regenerating, good is in the first place actually, and truth apparently, 3701. See Regeneration. They who do good from truth, and are not yet in good, are in the ultimate of the Lord's king- dom, 6396. They who do good from truth, but not as yet from good. 54 C H A N do works not of truth, still less of good, 6405. They induce a want of order in the will, because the interiors are almost closed, 6406. The Lord is present in the good of charity, 6495. The doctrine of charity is amongst the things which have been lost ; yet the Word is nothuig else but this doctrine, 6632. Because the doctrine of charity is lost, the doctrine of faith is much alienated from truth, 6633. See^the seriatim remarks on the doctrine of charity, 6627 — 6633, 6703 — 6712, 6818—6824, 6933—6938, 7080—7086, 7178—7182, 7255 — 7263, 7^m^7^77, 7623—7627,7752—7762, 7814—7821, 8033—8037. 8120—8124, 8252—8257, 8387—8394, 8548—8553, 8635—8640, 8742—8747, 8853—8858, 8958—8969, 9112—9122. ^ Charity is not to be exercised towards all promiscuously, 6703. Charity consists in performing uses from the love of the heart, 7038. Love is the source of the Hfe of man, and that the ruling love is that source, 7081. Love and faith, in the spiritual world, are like heat and light in the natural world, 7082—7084. Spiritual heat or love, and spiritual light or faith, come from the Lord as the sun of heaven, 7083, 7625. AH in the other life are consociated according to loves; in heaven according to love towards the neighbour and towards the Lord, and in hell accord- ing to the loves of self and of the world, 7085. It cannot be known what good is, unless it be known what love to the Lord and love or charity towards the neighbour is, 7178—7182, 7255. Nor can it be known what evil is unless it be known what the love of self and of the world is, 7178, 7255, 7366. Nor can it be known what the truth of faith is, except from good, nor what the false is, except it be known what evil is, 7178. There are two faculties, the understanding allotted to the truth of faith, and the will to the good of love ; these faculties are conjoined with those who are in good, but not with those who are in evil, 7179. They ought not to be separated, 7180. It is necessary for man to know what good is, that he may know what heaven is, and to know what evil is, that he may know what hell is, 7181. The life of charity according to Christian precepts is saving, but not a Hfe according to natural good, 7197, 7761. The good of love to the Lord is called celestial good, and the good of charity towards the neighbour is caHed spiritual good, 7257. The doctrine of love to the Lord is most extensive and mysterious; the doctrine of love and charity towards the neighbour is extensive, but not so mysterious, 7258. Inasmuch as this latter doctrine is extensive, the ancients reduced charity towards the neighbour into classes, and gave them names, 7259, 7260. Those names were given them from heaven, 7261. Their doctrine of charity taught in what manner charity ought to be exercised towards those who are in each class, 7261. Hence such names occur in the Word, where they signify those who are such spiritually, 7262. See Love of Self. They who are in the good of charity cannot lose any thing, and they remain to eternity, because, by the good of charity, they are conjoined to life itself and to the Eternal, that is, the Lord, 7506, 7507. There are two things which proceed from the Lord, good and truth, but they are united both in their proceeding from him and in heaven; in the church they are charity and faith, which in like manner ought to be one, 7623, 7624. See below, Charity and Faith. Every one may see from natural lumen, that good and truth agree together, not evH and truth ; and that experience testifies the same thing, 7627. All things in the universe Lave reference to good and truth j thus all things of the church to cha- C II A uo rity and faitli, 7752—7754. The good of charity has its quality from the truth of faith, and truth has its essence from that good, 7759. Good also^has its quality from the copiousness of truths and their con- nection, 7760. Spiritual good is alone saving, because spiritual good is a plane for the angels, but not natural good ; for the latter is drawn away as easily into what is false and evil as into what is true and good, 7761. The confidence which is of faith is from the good of love, not from faith separate, 7762. See Faith. Man is so created as that he can look above himself, and beneath himself, 7814. He looks above himself when he looks to his neighbour, his country, the church, heaven, especially to the Lord, 7814, 7815, 7817. To look above himself is to be elevated by the Lord, 7816. He looks at the world and at self when he looks at those things which are of heaven and of the Lord from behind, 7817. To look above self, and beneath self, is to regard the one or the other as an end, and to love it above all things, 7818. Man may love self and the world, also eminence and opulence, but as means to an end, 7819; and that in such case it is good, 7820. Man IS distinguished from the brutes by the capacity of looking above self; to look beneath self is to be a beast, but to look above self is to be a man, 782 1 . The difference between living according to the precepts of faith, and according to the precepts of charity, is as the difference between man in his unregenerate and regenerate state, 8013. Charity is an internal affection of doing good, and the delight of the life, 8033. With those who are in charity there is heaven and the church ; these also are the regenerate, who have a new will and a new understanding, 8036. They who are in the love of self and of the world do not know what charity and faith are ; neither do they comprehend what it is to do good without recompense, and that this is heaven; rather, they believe that there is nothing of joy if they be deprived of the joy arising from the glory of honours and 'wealth, when yet heavenly joy then commences, 8037. It is believed that giving to the poor, assisting the indigent, and doing good to every one, is charity, but charity ex- tends much further, 8120, 8121. It consists in doing what is right, just, and good in every work, and in all employments, ill. 8121, 8122. The reason is, because man, a society, a man's country, the church, the kingdom of the Lord, and generally what is good and just, are the neighbour, 8123. With those who are in charity from internal affec- tion, it pervades all and every thing which they think, speak, wHl, and act, 8124. A life of piety without a Hfe of charity is of no avail, but with it, it avails every thing, 8252. What is meant by a life of piety, and what by a Hfe of charity; that the latter consists in uses, 8253. The worship of the Lord consists in a life of charity, 8254 ; ah. 8255. Man remains of such a quality as is his life of charity, and not such as his life of piety without charity, sh. 8256. The life of charity is according to the precepts of the Lord, and is spiritual ; but to do what is just and honest without it is civil and moral life, 8257. The unre- generate do not know what the good of charity is, 8462. Charity con- sists in doing weH to the internal of man, that is, in such benefactions as conduce to the spiritual life, and in conjoining with it such benefac- tions as conduce to external welfare at the same time, with a prudent regard that the former always accompany the latter, 9209. When any one does good for the sake of good, or for the sake of truth, it is ii- 56 C II A CH A 57 i for the sake of the Lord, 9210. This ought always to he the head, and self or gain the sole of the foot, 9210. To love what is good and true for the sake of what is good and true, is to love the neighhour and God, 10,310. To do what is good and true for the sake of what is good and true, is to love the Lord above all things, and the neighbour as one's self, 10,336. 2. Charity and Faith. Charity saves, not faith without charity 379, 389. Charity, or love and mercy, is the only bond which con- joins the Lord and' man, 3/9. They who place the essential of salvation in faith, do not even attend to or see what the Lord so often said concerning charity and love, 1017, 2373. Charity is received from the Lord by means of faith, 393. See Faith. With a person about to be regenerated, seed cannot be rooted except in the good of charity, 880. The illumination of a regenerate person is from charity, not from faith, 854. All the precepts of the decalogue, and all things of faith, are grounded in charity as their essence, 1798. In the last times there is no faith, because no charity, 1843. The fruits of faith are good works, and good works are of charity, and charity is of the Lord, con- sequently he himself is in it, 161, 1873. They who are in faith with- out charity have no conscience, 1076, 1077. There is no faith where there is no charity, 654, 1162, 1176. They who are in no charity cannot acknowledge the Lord, and if they profess him, it is a mere external thing, or from hypocrisy, 2354. None are saved by faith. plified, 2340, 2349. Those who are in the good of charity easily re- ceive the truths of faith, 2049. See Nations. Doctrinals of faith are of no effect unless they have charity in them, because they respect charity as their very end, 2049, 2116. Faith has been separated from charity, and regarded as the means of salvation, in the degree that self-love has prevailed, 223 1 . Charity is a celestial flame, and faith thence derived is like the light of spring, but faith separate from cha- rity is like the light of winter, 2231, 7625. They who separate faith from charity make charity meritorious in the other life, 2371, 2380. It has been matter of controversy from highest antiquity whether the primogeniture belongs to charity or faith, 2435. Charity without faith is not genuine charity, and faith without charity is not genuine faith, 2839. From various reasonings it would appear that faith is prior to charity, or truth superior to good, but it is a fallacjr, 3324 . They who make faith, and not charity, the essential, may be m the good of truth, yet not so much in heaven, or so conjoined to the Lord, as they who are in the good of charity, 3459. Those who do good from faith, and not from charity, are more remote from the Lord, 3463. Faith is the external form of charity, and charity the internal of faith, 3868, 3870. Without charity, faith is lifeless and filthy, 3870. The truths of faith cannot be accepted except by conjunction with the good of charity and love, ill. 4368. How much eood there would be in the church if cha- rity were in the first place and faith in the second, ill. 6269. An idea concerning good and truth, or charity and faith, may be formed from the sun, and the light thence derived, such as it is in the spring, and such as it is in the winter, 7625. When the light and the heat are conjoined, man is compared to a garden, and when they are not con- joined, to a wilderness, 7626. The first principle of the church is charity, and it enters by an internal way; the second is faith, which enters by an external way, 7755, 77b(S, Their conjunction is effected in the interiors of man, wherein good adopts truth, 77^7. By con- junction with good or charity, faith becomes charity, 7758. Faith itself is an internal affection for what is true and good, and this is the ground of its conjunction with charity, 8034. They who are in genuine charity and faith, know that the all of charity and faith is from the Lord, 8035. Seriatim remarks concerning charity and faith, 9239 — 9245, 9363—9369, 9443—9454, 9585—9591, 9701—9709, 9796—9803, 9974-9984, 10,167—10,175, 10,318 — 10,32.5, 10,386—10,392, 10,519-10,522, 10,591—10,597, 10,714—10,724, 10,740—10,749, 10,760—10,766, 10,773—10,781, 10,789—10,806, 10,815—10,831. 3. Charity in worship and the Church, The church is one if all have charity, notwithstanding the diversity of worship and of doctrinals, 1285, 1316, 2385, 2982. Charity, which is of the will, not the doctrinal of faith, constitutes the church, 809, 1798, 1799, 1834, 1844. They who are of the external church possess the internal in worship if they have charity, 1100, 1151, 1153. See Internal, Worship. The church is spiritual from charity, not by professing faith without charity, 916. The church in process of time recedes from charity, 1327, 1334, 1335. Every one may know from charity whether he is in the internal of worship, 1102, 1151, 1153. Charity prevailed in the ancient church, and therefore it was one, though it was spread over many kingdoms, 2385. See Church. The spiritual church is every where various as to truths, but it is one by charity, 3267. The church is not the church unless doctrinal truths are conjoined with good of life, 3310; but when that is the case, notwithstanding the variety of doctrinals, it is one, 3451, 3452. There is not any church where charity is not acknowledged for the essential of the church, ill. 4766. The internal of the church is charity towards the neighbour in will and in act, and thence faith in perceiving, 4899. Hence the genuine love of the Lord and genuine worship are testified by charity and its exer- cises, and not merely by outward veneration, 5066, 5067. The church does not consist in the truths of faith, but it exists where charity is, 5826. How much good there is in the church if charity be in the first place, and faith in the second, ill. 6269. How much of evil, if faith be in the first place, and charity in the second, 6262. The doctrine of charity was the prevailing doctrine in the ancient churches, and hence they derived their wisdom, 6628, 6629. 4. Various particulars concerning Charity. Angelic life consists in use and the good works of charity, 454. The angels are forms of charity, 553, 3804. Those who have the life of charity come into heaven immediately, from experience, 318. When the Word is read, it is vivified according to every one's state of charity and inno- cence, 1776. The spheres of charity and faith, which are perceived as odours in the other life, are most delightful, 1519. Concerning the doctrinals of love and charity known to the ancients, and which are now lost, 3419, 3420. See Doctrine. The regenerate are, as to their spirits, forms of love and charity like the angels, 3804, 4735. Charity exemplified in the case of a judge who condemns an ofifender. 58 C II I CHR 59 4730. The simple know and acknowledge what charity is, not what faith separate is, 4/41, 4754. The doctrinals of the ancient church were doctrinals of charity, and their knowledges and scientifics con- sisted in knowing what their rituals, and the objects of the world, repre- sented, 4844. Those who have lived in the good of charity come into all wisdom in the other life, .5859. The celestial kingdom and the spiritual kingdom are conjoined by charity towards the neighbour, be- cause charity is the external of the celestial kingdom, and the internal of the spiritual kingdom, 5922 ; compare 6425, and see Mutual Love. In the former case it is called mutual love ; in the latter, cha- rity, 64.35. When the angels communicate their good to another so as to be willing to give all, an augmentation of good flows in ; but if they think of recompense it is dissi[)ated, 6478. All in heaven are kept in a front aspect with the Lord by love towards him, and by cha- rity towards the neighbour, ill. 9828. CHAUNTING OF THE LAND [decantatio terrce']. The best fruits or praises of the earth signifies the more excellent things of the church, 5618. See Singing, Music. CHECKERED [tesselatum']. See Garment. CHEDORLAOMER [Kedorlaomer']. Chedorlaomer and his vas- sals signify apparent goods and truths, 1667 ; and these in the external man, 1671. See also 1685, and the articles El am, Shem. CHEEK-BONE [jnaxiUd]. To smite the cheek-bone signifies to destroy truth, 9048. CIIEMOSH [KemoscK]. See Moab. CHEFiETHIMS. See Egypt (Caphtorim), CHESED [Kesed^. See Nahor. CHERUB. Cherubim signify the providence of the Lord, to pre- vent man's entering of himself into the mysteries of faith, 308, 6832, 9391. The Lord's dwelling between the cherubim signifies the Lord in such a state of providence, 3384. The word cherub was derived from remote antiquity, like the divine names, 4162. Cherubim signify fore- sight and providence, 6367. Cherubim, palms, and flowers engraved on the walls of the temple, signify providence, wisdom, and intelligence, 8369. Cherubim signify the guard and providence of the Lord, to prevent access to himself, except by good, 9277 at the end ; and to prevent the good, which from the Lord is in heaven and with man, being injured, 9506; sh, 9509. There being two cherubim denotes the celestial and spiritual good by which he is approached, 9523. They also denote a guard to prevent spiritual good and celestial good being mixed together, 9673. CHILD. See Boy, Girl, Infant. CHILDHOOD [pueritid]. Infants and children are in celestial things more than adults, because they are in love towards their parents, and in mutual love and innocence, 1453. The good of these loves flows in from the Lord, and ser^s as the plane for receiving truths in after life, 10,110. But the delight of learning in childhood is only external, not regarding any end, 1472, 1480. It opens the way for the celestial, the spiritual, and the rational to flow in, 1495. See Instruction. The celestial affections of love with which infants and children are im- bued flow in without knowledges, and are stored up for future use, 1450. See Remains. Worldly and sensual things adjoin themselves ; 1 in childhood, and can only be discritninated and separated as knowledge is attained, 1547, 1557. Hence instruction and knowledge must pre- cede temptations, 1661, 3701. Childhood and youth signify states of the affections of good and truth, 3254. By the truths of infancy and childhood the angels of God ascend from earth to heaven as by a ladder, and by the truths of adult age they descend from heaven to earth, 3701. From infancy to childhood man is merely sensual ; from childhood to youth communication with the inner natural is opened, 5126. From early infancy to early childhood man is introduced by the Lord into heaven, among celestial angels, and held in a state of innocence; but from this period he gradually puts off this state of innocence, and comes into the aff'ection of charity, and among spiritual angels, 5342.

Concerning the easy initiation of gentile spirits into choirs, 2595. A choir of the Chinese, 2596. On the formation of visible representa- tives by choirs, 3350; compare 2596. How choirs act in unity, though the number may be many myriads; and thus that the universal heaven is one from mutual love, and from love to the Lord, 3350. The more numerous they are, so much the more distinct and perfect, 3350. It is by choirs that inauguration into unanimity is efi^ected, and that they are successively more interior, 5182. The spirits of Jupiter are much delighted with angelic choirs, 8115. In ancient times it was per- mitted to express spiritual dehghts by choirs, or by dancing and sing- ing, as mentioned in the Word, where these things signify the joys belonging to the affection of truth grounded in charity, 8339. See Music. CHOSEN, OR Elect, the [electum], denotes what is well pleasing, 2922. The chosen (or elect) are those who are in the hfe of good and of truth, 3755 at the end, 3900. Their election precedes the marriage of good and truth, 3805. There is no election and reception into hea- ven from mercy, according to the opinion of the vulgar, 5057, 5058 at the end, 8700, 10,659. But the election of the good is universal, 7051. CHRIST [Christus], In the internal sense by Jesus is signified divine good, and by Christ divine truth; and by both the divine mar- riage of good and truth, 3004. That by Jesus is signified divine good, 3005; and also the complex of all doctrine and worship, 3006. That Christ is the same as Messiah, anointed, and king, sh. 3007, 3008. And that Messiah, anointed, and king, is the same thing as divine truth, sh. 3009. Hence what is the regal principle, and what the priestly principle of the Lord, 3009. The divine spiritual proceeding from the Lord's divine human is one with the divine truth, or Christ, 4669. By false Christs are signified truths not divine, or falses, 3010. They who profess themselves Christians, and do not live according to the precepts of the Lord, worship false Christs, 3732 at the end. CHRISTIANS [ChrUtiani], Concerning the state and lot of the 60 CIl U CHU 61 I Gentiles (or nations) in the other life, as compared with that of Chris- tians, 2597. See Gentiles, Nations.

Concerning the most ancient church, its celestial state, &c., 597, ^08 .^^'^T^^^^l ^^ T T}^^ man or Adam, and its members are high above the head lllo. They have beautiful habitations and delightful auras, 1116. 1 hey are in the highest light, 1117. They had internal respiration which is described! 607, 608, 1118—11 20. Accordingly, their speech was not a speech of words, but was effected by expressions of the face and lips, 1118 They enjoyed perception like that of the angels with whom they communicated, 607, 895, 1121. They had the law inscribed on them 1121 ; the Word not being written in their time, but revealed, 2896! In terrestrial and corporeal things, they saw only spiritual and celestial things, and cared for nothing else, 920, 1 122 They had de- liahtful dreams and visions, and hence their paradisiacal representations, 1?22 With them, goods and truths were inseminated m the voluntary part^not so with the ancient or spiritual church, 895. The difference between the quality of these two churches described, o97, 607. The antediluvians (when the most ancient church had declined) saw notlung but worldly and corporeal things in the objects of the senses, 920. The knowledge of representatives and significatives was from the most an- cient church, 2896 ; those who collected them for the use of posterity bein^ signified by Enoch, 2896. The most ancient church existed in the fand of Canaan, 3686. See Canaan. The most ancient church, the ancient, and the Christian, agree as to internals, for they are one 4489. The difference of genius between the man of the most an- cient, and the man of the ancient church, ill. 4493. See Celestial. The most ancient church had not the externals of worship, nor cmild they have received them unless their internals were closed, 4493. The Lord was expected by the third generation of this church, 1123 ; and by their posterity, when the church declined, but with a difference, 1124. The remains of the most ancient church were the Hittites and Hivites, 4447, 4454. Also the NephiUm or giants, 4454. This church was informed concerning the things relating to eternal life by immediate commerce with the angels of heaven, 10,355. The period when it flourished is called the golden age, 10,355. Hamor and Shechem were remains of this church, and committed an enormous sin when they submitted to circumcision, 4493. Had the man of the most ancient church read the historical or the prophetical word, he would have seen the internal sense without any previous instruction, 4493. 2. The Ancient Church. The ancient church was altogether of another temper compared with the most ancient, and was formed m the intellectual part, 640, 641, 765. It was instructed by doctnnals, 609 ; and had no internal communication with heaven like the most ancient, 784. The church Enos, and its quality, 1125. The church Noah, and its quaUty, 1 126. The church Shem, and its quality, 1 127. The ancient church represented as to its quality, when it began to de- cline, 1128. Through how many kingdoms the ancient church was spread, 1238, 2385. That by Eber in Syria, a new church was es- tablished, 1238. What was the quality of the church from Eber; that it was in externals, and was instituted when the ancient church was adulterated, and turned into idolatry, 1241. The ancient church had a written word which was lost, and it consisted of historical and propheticals, 2897. It was derived from the representatives and sig- nificatives of the most ancient church, and was divine, 2897. Con- firmation of this fact from the prophecy of Balaam, 2898. See Word. Concerning the doctrinals of love and charity in the ancient church ; and concerning representatives and significatives, 3419, 3420. See Doctrine, Representation. The ancient church, like the most ancient, existed in Canaan, and hence the places there were repre- sentative, 3686. The statutes and laws commanded to the posterity of Jacob were known in the ancient churches, 4449. In general there were three churches after the flood, the first named after Noah, the second from Eber, the third from Jacob and afterwards from Judah and Israel, 1327. The ancient church was a representative church inasmuch as their external rituals corresponded with their internal wor- ship, not so with the church descended from Jacob, 4288. The Canaanites and Perizzites were remains of the ancient church, 4516, 4517. See Hebrews. The traditions of the most ancient church were the source of their knowledge of the things of eternal life, 10,355. They were in spiritual good, and their period is that of the silver age* 10,355. Circumcision was known in this church, and emanated from it to many nations, 4462. They knew the essential doctrines of the church, but they were led to them by representatives, 4904. 3. The Jewish and Israelitish Church, The Hebrew or Syrian church in the time of Abram had so far departed from the truth as to be idolatrous, 3031. See Hebrews. In his stock, however, the genuine principle of the church was capable of being represented' 4208. Hence the representative of a church, but not a church, was raised up amongst the posterity of Jacob, 4281. See Jew, Repre- sentation. This consisted of the same external rituals as the repre- sentative church, but without the corresponding internals, ill. 4288, 4680. The internals of the ancient church had reference to charity, which was to them the essential of the church, not so with the posterity of Jacob, 4680. A church merely representative is not a church, 3480. But all the representatives of the Jewish church contained in them ali the arcana of the Christian church, 3478 at the end; such things having been representative of the interior things of the church and of heaven, 10,149. The Jews were not led by such representatives to internal things as were the men of the ancient church, 4904. Hence the Jewish church never was a church beginning from charity, but only the representation of one, 2910. It was not a new church, but only a resuscitation of the ancient church, 4835. Abraham was ordered to go to the land of Canaan, and this land was given to his posterity for the sake of the representation of heavenly things, 3686. Angels communed viva voce with the Israelitish church, because the men of that church were not interiorly receptive of influx and illustra- tion, 10,355. The period of this church is called the age of brass. I 02 CHU c H i; 63 I 10,355.

Ihe last judgment is the last time of the church, 2118. In VFhat the consummation of the several churches which have existed on this globe has consisted, 2243. The Lord came into the worid, that he might save the spiritual, 2661. They who are within the church, ought especially to be purified from evils and falses, because they can render holy things impure, 2051, 2054, 2056. The communication of heaven with the human race is by the church, because the church IS like the heart and lungs. 2853. All men who are in the Lord's church, although dispersed through the globe, still make as it were one, as in the heavens, 2853. States of the church compared to times of the year and of the day, 2905. Every church decreases, and this even to no charity, and at length to hatred against others, 2910. The reason is, because hereditary evil increases with time unless families become regenerate, 2910 at the end. A new church is rarely, if ever, raised up by the Lord from the men of a former church, but from the gentiles which were in ignorance, 2910, 2986; the reason is, they have no falses opposed to the truths of faith, 2986, 4747. Various churches form one church, when love to the Lord and charity towards the neigh- bour IS the essential, not when faith is, 2982. The church is compared to a bridej and in ancient times, vessels of silver, and of gold, and 64 CHU garments, were given to a bride, to signify truth, good, and their adorn- ins:, which arc of the church, 3164, 31C5. See Bride, Bracelets. The church of the Lord extends to gentile nations; and the gentiles who are in good easily acknowledge many truths from themselves, 32()J. Even the tacit acknowledgment and worship of the Lord, ««« his pre- sence with them, is involved in their reception of good, 3263. Ihey constitute the spiritual church, which is every where various as to truths, but one by charity, 3267. There is no church unless the truths of doctrine are implanted in the good of Hfe, 3310. Concermng the first state of the perversion of the church, 3353, 3354. 1 here is only one doctrine of the church, viz., the doctrine of chanty towards the neighbour and of love to the Lord, 3445. Although doctrmAls are various, still the church is one, if all have charity, 3451, 34o2. Ihe Word is unclosed to churches in their infancy, because love to the Lord, and charity towards the neighbour, is assumed as a principle ; but after- wards, when faith is so assumed, the Word becomes closed, 3/73. Ihe knowledges of doctrinals, that is, the Word, must precede before the church can be established, 3786. There would be no church unless man was spoken to in the Word by exterior truths, ilL 3bo 7. 1 he churches which have existed were in external truths, 3857. Ihey are not of the church who are in the afifection of truth and not m good, and who are in the affection of good which is not productive of truth, 3963. The church is the foundation of heaven, 4060. That man is the church, 4292. That they who are of the vastated church are re- moved from heaven by a cloudy mist, caused by an inundation of falses, 4423. That life makes the church, not doctrine thence separated, 4468. The human race would grow insane and be extinguished, if there were no church, 4545. The church which commences from faith has no other regulator than the understanding; but the church which commences from good has for its regulator charity, and the Lord, 4672. The church in process of time usually declines to faith, 4683, 4689. There is no church where there is not an acknowledgment in life and doctrine, that the human of the Lord is divine, and thus one with the Father, sh. 4766. Neither is there any church, where charity is not acknowledged for an essential of the church, 4766. Concerniug the representation of the man of the celestial church as to the voluntary part, and of the man of the spiritual church as to the intellectual part, throughout the Word, 5113. They who are in the affection of truth do not remain in the doctrinals of their own church, but search the Word, and see whether they be true, ill. 5432, 6047. The man of the church was heretofore in interior things; but at this day in what is external, or the body, 5649. Man ought to be in the good of truth, that he may be a church, 5826. The Word ought to be searched, to know whether the doctrinals of the church are true, otherwise truths would be estimated only from the soil in which they are propagated, and their birth-place, 6047. See Faith. How much good there would be in the church, if charity was in the first place, and faith m the second, ill, 6269. But how much evil there is when faith is in the first place, and charity in the second, 6272. That charity is actually in the first place, andYaith apparently,— see Truth, Regeneration.

It was performed with knives made of flint, because flints or stones signify truths, 2039 at the end, 2046, 2/99, 7044; and it is by the truths of faith that purification is effected, 2/99. The performance of this rite on the eighth day, denotes that purih- cation ought to be effected every moment, 2044. The uncircumcised within the church, are they who are not in chanty, howsoever they may be ii> doctrinals, 2049 at the end. Everything is called uncircum- cised which impedes and defiles, as an uncircumcised ear, 2056. Ihey were called uncircumcised, who were in the loves of self and ot gain, 3412 3413. Circumcision was enjoined, because the toreskm m tne anciekt church corresponded to the defilement of good, but in the most ancient to its obscuration; wherefore with this latter, there was no cir- cumcision, 4462. All are circumcised who are spiritually circumcised, viz., purified from the love of self and of the world, sh. 4462. It was enjoined upon Abraham and his descendants as a representative sign that they were of the church, and was not a new rite, 4462. It effected initiation into the externals of the church, 4486, 4493. The pain after circumcision denotes lust occasioning anguish, 4496. The foreskin cor- responds to the most external loves, viz., such as are corporeal and terrestrial, 7045. One uncircumcised in lips, denotes one who is im- pure as to doctrine, 7225. An uncircumcised ear denotes disobedience, and an uncircumcised heart is that which does not admit good and truth, 7225 Moses calling himself uncircumcised in lips, has respect to the nation of which he was the head ; that its worship, which was merely external, was impure, 7245. When the angels entertain the idea of purification from natural defilements, as when any desire to be admitted into heaven, there is somewhat quick, hke a rapid circumcision, repre- sented in the world of spirits, 2039.

Hyacinth and purple signify celestial goods and truths, 4922, 5954, 9834, 9839. Hyacinth signifies the celestial love of truth, or truth derived from the good of love to the Lord, 9466, 9596, 9833. This good itself prevails in the celestial heaven, and appears of a purple colour, and the truth thence derived hyacmthme, 9466. In the opposite sense hyacinth signifies the infernal love of the false, 9466 at the end. It signifies love, or the affection ot truth, 9596. Also the truth of celestial love, 9873, 9933. The truth of celestial love is the same thing as the good of mutual love, by both of which is meant the external of the celestial, 9933. It is also called the external good of innocence, 9912. See Precious bTONES (Chrysoprasusy Azure Stone). Blue [caruleum]. There are two colours called blue, one which partakes more of red, and signifies the celestial love of truth, or the external of the good of the celestial kingdom, (see Hyacinth,) and another which partakes more of white, and signifies the spiritual love ot good, or the internal good of the spiritual kingdom, 9868. Blue signifies good, 4328, also truths, 6609. Good, when it is presented to the eye m the other life, appears as continuous, as round, and in regard to colour, as blue, yellow, and red, 8458. Blue signifies spiritual good, or^the spiritual love of good, which is charity towards the neigh- bour, 9870. There is an appearance in the other worid of a heaven with stars similar to the appearance in this, its blueness is truth trans- parent from good, 9408. The angels of the planet Jupiter are clothed in blue, and blue is loved by them, 8030. An inhabitant of mercury was represented to the author in obscure blue clothing, 7175. See Precious Stones (Azure Stone). Scarlet [coccineum], when it appears in the other life, signifies spiritual good, or the good of charity, sh. 4922, 9833; or the good of truth, 9596; or the good of spiritual love, 9873. In the opposite sense, the evil opposed to that good agreeing in both senses with the signification of blood, 4922, 9468, both at the end. It signifies celes- 72 COM COM 73 i tial truth, which being the external of the celestial kingdom and the internal of the spiritual, is the same thing as the good of mutual love, »A. 9468. It is the sphere of this love which shines like scarlet in passing through the light of the middle heaven, 9468. Scarlet signi- fies good, double-djed its truth, 9468. To be clothed with scarlet and adorned with gold is to teach the truths of doctrine from a celestial origin, and the goods of life, 9468. To be brought up in scarlet is to be instructed from infancy in the good of mutual love, from the Word, 9468. The external 'of the Word appears scarlet to the in- habitants of heaven, hence the signification of this colour in the Apocalypse, where it treats of those who have profaned the Word, 9468. Scarlet signifies remembrance also from the same ground, 9468. Yellow [Jlavum]. The colour of good when presented to the sight in the other life is blue, yellow, and red, 8458. See Honey, Butter, Manna. Green [viridis], A green thing signifies the external pleasures of the intellectual part, or of spiritual aifection, 996. Herbs, grass, and the leaves of trees signify truths, their greenness the sensitive or ultimate perception of truth,' 7691, 9936, 10,137. See Herb, Tree, Precious Stones (Emerald), Black [niffru7n]. Opaque white and black are the two planes from which all the colours are reflected, 1042, 3993, 4530. Black denotes evil; specifically the proprium of man, 3993, 3994. Hence the cor- poreal life of man, when seen in the spirit, appears like a black mass, 5865. See Ham. Whence the blackness of evil spirits, 4320. Black in lambs denotes the proprium of innocence, 3994, 4001. The sor- didly avaricious, when they are excoriated Hke hogs, from black become white, 939. Certain black spirits seen in the habitation of dragons, 950. That one who supposed he had lived hoHly without works of charity became black, 952. Concerning certain spirits of black men, 2603. The Word in the letter represented by black shining garments worn by a beautiful maiden, 1872. See Garments, Proprium. COMB, to [pectere]. To comb the hair, denotes to accommodate natural things, that they may appear decent ; hence the appearance of certain female spirits described, 5570. COMBAT [pM^na]. See Temptation. COME, to [venire]. See to Enter-in. To come, denotes tran- sition from one state to another, 1853, 3016. The coming of God signifies perception, because such is the efiPect of his advent or divine influx into the intellectual faculty, 2513. To come to drink signifies the affection of truth, 4017. To come into Egypt signifies to be ipstructed, 1479. To come to any one signifies communication, 5249 ; also, what is successive, 5505 ; whence it denotes accession, 5941, 5947 ; and presence, 5934, 6063, 6089. See /o Bring. To come or enter to any one is presence or appearance, 7498, 7631 ; and when predicated of what is matrimonial, conjunction, 3914, 3918. But see 6782, 6783. To come likewise, denotes application, (which precedes conjunction,) 6117. See Application. To come after them, when predicated of those who are in falses derived from evil, denotes an attempt to do violence by the influx of what is false from evil, 8187. COME NEAR, to [accedere], denotes presence, also perception thence, 3572, 3574 ; and interior communication, 5883. To approach COMELINESS [decw,] Comeliness or pleasantness signifies a stateof trnth 4769.

Particular ideas, as the objects ot the senses, insinuate themselves into general affections, by which they are qualified and whence they flow, 920. See Universal. The reception of common truths makes an easy entrance for the indefinite particulars to which they open, 1802. How particulars and generals are as what is small and what is large, 2384. During man's reforma- tion, generals are first arranged into order, and when these are so dis- posed as to receive influx doctrinals are removed, 3057. compare 5208. national truths in respect to natural truths are as particulars compared with generals, 3513. The common or general appears under a form which IS according to the order of its constituent particulars, 3513. Thus superior or highest things are in what is ultimate as in their general principle and image, 3739. and therefore generals ought to be Known that particulars and singulars may be apprehended, 4269 Par- ticulars and singulars continually refer themselves to their common or cardinal forms, 3913. Effects arc so called, 4104. The ordination of 74 COM COM 75 truths and affections of truth into their common principles is their pro- duction in the Ufe of the natural man as in tlieir images and mirrors, 4104. There must be a general principle, otherwise there cannot be particulars and singulars, 4325, 4329. Generals are so called from particulars, for particulars are insinuated in order into generals, and singulars, in like manner, into particulars; such is the progress from things exterior to things interior, ill, 4345. Generals are insinuated into those who are regenerating, wherein are particulars and singulars, which successively come forth, 4383. The angels notwithstanding their ineffable wisdom know and perceive only such things as are compara- tively most common or general, 4383. There are series of things in arrangement under their general principles, according to angelic socie- ties, with the regenerate, 5339. The perceptive principle is the com- mon principle of thought, 5228. What is common must always precede whether in things natural or spiritual, into this the less common, and at length particulars are inserted, 5208, 5339. See Series. Common or general truths must enter into the understanding first, otherwise the affection of particulars could not exist, 5454. Common or general principles have their receptacles ; and in those general principles are arranged things less general, or particulars, and in these singulars, 5531. Common truths before they are qualified by particulars, and these again by singulars, suffer themselves to be bent so as to favour all kinds of interpretation, 5620. What is general is the father of what is internal or particular in the beginning, but not afterwards, ill. G089. All things must have reference to what is general, that they may be kept in form, and general things be under more generals, ill, 6115. The most general universal principle is the Lord ; those which are less universal or common successively described, 6115. All things are to be referred to general things, thus to doctrinals, 6146. Not even ge- neral things can be known to eternity, 6618. In proportion as any thing is more common, it perceives less of what is more particular, 6686. General things may be filled with things innumerable, 7131. The common or general is the outward or inferior, 8823. COMMUNICATION. All joy and happiness are perceived and communicated in heaven, 549, 550. Also all science, insomuch that one spirit is capable of entering into all the knowledge of another, 1390, 6193. Such communications are effected not only by speech, but by representations which coincide with ideas, 1391. The communication of joy and happiness is by actual transmission, 1392, preceded by the instantaneous removal of what is sad and contrary, 1393, compare 1875. There is a communication between heaven and the interiors of spirits and men, and between the world of spirits and their exteriors, 1399. The communication of every idea of thought and affection is such, that the good are thereby associated with the good, and the evil with the evil, 2449, 6193. Communication is from perceiving and willing, 3060. Man has communication with hell by means of two spirits, and with heaven by means of two angels, 5849, 5861. Such are called emissary or subject spirits and angels, 5983, 5984. The acknowledgment of the truths of the church and of the Lord effects communication with heaven, and opens the interiors of man towards heaven, 10,287, compare 784 ; and in regard to the manner of com- munication, 1638, 1639, 10,199. Even those who are in evil, so ong as they possess the truths of faith, are preserved in communica- hon with heaven, 7545. Evil spirits in hell L in such commuradon but not HI conjunction, 7560 ; and such communication ceases when they are yasta ed, 7573 7601. Man has communication with heaven by the mternal sense of the Word, 4280, 9817. In early times his communication with heaven was open and manifest, but that ceased when he became external, 7802 ; but more particularly, 920. Man comes into communication with angels after temptations and thence nfcatton' wiH T ^^^^^?^«^^ ^^^J' I>"ring tem^ptation' his commu! nication with heaven is partly closed, 8367, compare 5036.

How the Lord is in communicatTon and conjunction with the human race, 9276. See Conjunction, Per- CBPTiON, Influx. ' COMMUNION. The communion of the church throughout the whole world illustrated by the communion of parts in the human body those who are in true doctrine as well as the good of life being as the heart and lungs 2853. 7396. The communton of all in the heavenly societies IS such, that when a good spirit enters one of them he comes into possession of all its wisdom, 5859. 10.723. The societies which constitute the church in the complex, and which are called the Lord s church or kingdom, consist both of those within the church and without It who are in good. 7396. The intelligence, the wisdom, the felicity, and the peace of all who are in heaven^re communicated to each individual, and those of each individual to all, 10,723 See Feasts, Consociation. COMPANION \mius-\. Brother or neighbour denotes the good ll J 1 76 COM CON 11 of love ; companion, the truth of faith, 2360, «A. 10,490. A companion is one who is in the truth of faith, who may be at enmity with his associate, 6765. The expression, 'man and companion,* and *man and brother,' denotes what is mutual, and the conjunction of good and truth, 10,555; also * one at another,* or 'one to another,* 5705, 9149. COMPARISON [comparatio, comparativa]. Comparisons taken from nature are also representatives, 3518. Natural objects serve for comparisons according to their signification, 3579, 7571. All com- parisons used in the Word are made by significatives, 3901, 4231, 9086. But see 4424, 5201. They are real correspondences, and not mere metaphors of language, 4434, 8989, 9272, 9828, 10,669, All the historicals of the Word are representative, and all the words sig- nificative, 1404, 1408, 1409. If the comparisons used in the Word were not significative and representative they would not cohere together, 4599. They are called correspondences because such particular objects actually appear in the world of spirits as representatives of the subject discoursed upon, 5115, 8989 ; and because they are actually conjoined to that which they correspond to, as sight is conjoined to the eye, &c., 7850. See Correspondence, Representation. The progress of the church is compared to the succession of times and seasons, &c., 1837, 10,134 ; and with the development of vegetable and animal hfe, 501. Good affections compared to the beautiful in form and aspect, and evil affections to the monstrous, 2363. The latter compared to all that is vile in nature, 2045. Regeneration compared to the infu- sion of the sweet juices in fruits when they grow ripe, and the growth of new fibres in the heart, 3470. The immature fruit is the first ra- tional, the genuine rational being the fruit tree bearing seed, and the further productions of gardens and paradises, 2657. Comparison of these growths with the growth of the spiritual life in man, 3518, 5115; and of the operation of divine good and divine truth, with the heat and light of the sun, 8328, 9434. The apparent absence of divine love compared with the apparent setting of the sun, 5097. Comparison of one who knows the truth concerning the influx and operation of spirits to a person who looks at his own image in a mirror, and knows it to be his image ; while those who are ignorant of this truth are like persons who believe the image to be themselves, 5036. Man undergoing temptation compared to squalor and uncleanness, and after- wards to a person who has cleansed himself and put on fresh garments, 5246. Comparison of intellectual and voluntary things with forms perpetually varying and the harmony of them, 5147; — of a man ac- quainted with truths, but still in evil, to a tree bearing leaves but not fruit, 2388; — of those who are holy in externals but interiorly evil, to fruits which have an outwardly good aspect, but are rotten and filthy within, 2468. Interior things compared to seeds, and exterior to the fruits which contain them, and how much more perfect and vital are the former, 9666. The union of the Lord's human essence with the divine, compared to the conjunction of the soul and body in man, 2018; not that the one can be compared to the other, but that it may be illus- trated by it, 2025, 2026, compare 2063. COMPASSION [commisseratio]. In the original tongue compas- sion is expressed by a word which signifies the inmost and tenderest love; to be inoved with compassion is to have mercy from love, 5691. The compassion felt for others by those who are in charity flows in from the Lord, and is an admonition to give aid, 6737. Compassion IS predicated of truth, and moving of the bowels of good, 8875. See Mercy. COMPEL, to [coffere]. Man ought to compel himself to resist evil, and to do good ; otherwise he cannot receive a celestial proprium, 1937, 1947. For a man to compel himself is freedom, but not to be compelled, 1937 at the end, 1947. No good can arise from any other compulsion, 1 937, ill. 5854. Hence the Lord governs man in perfect freedom, 5854. See Liberty. Man cannot come into the good of innocence or the good of love to the Lord unless he compel himself, /914. See Compulsion. COMPLAISANT, the [assent atores]. They who are of this cha- racter, for the sake of doing mischief, constitute the sphincter of the bladder, or of the urethers, and correspond to things contrary, 5388. Complaisance is more or less evil according to the end, 5388. See Simulation. COMPULSION [coactum]. No one can be reformed or regenerated by compulsion, 1947; because the affection for good is the recipient of good, and the means of its conjunction, 2875, 2881, 4031—4033. If not received into the will it belongs to another's will, and hence is not of liberty, 5854, 10,777. Therefore it is impossible to force man to be saved, 8700. See to Compel. CONCEAL, to [celare]. See to Hide. CONCEIVE, to [concipere]. See Nativity, to Bring forth. lo conceive denotes the first reception of life flowing from the internal man into the external, 1910. In the inmost sense, the origin of the divine natural, 3288. It signifies reception and acknowledgment, 3925. It IS the first condition of spiritual birth, 6718. See Generation. All conception of doctrine is from good as a father ; and all birth is by truth as a mother, 2586. The thought and device of the heart is meant by conception, 261,264. CONCUBINE. Handmaids, with whom children were procreated, are called concubines ; and children were procreated from them, that such as are out of the church, and also such as are of an inferior de- gree within the church might be represented, 2868. The spiritual are sons of concubines, 3246. It was permitted those who were in ex- ternals, for the sake of representation, to adjoin a concubine to a wife, but not to those who are in internals, and in good and truth ; therefore not to Christians, to whom it is adultery, 3246. The celestial church was represented by the wife, and the spiritual by the concubine, 3246. See also, 8983. That it is not allowed to have concubines or many wives at this day, as with the Jews, 9002. CONCUPISCENCE [concupiscentia]. See Desire, Lust. CONFESS, to {confiteri\ from which Judah takes his name, de- notes, in the supreme sense, the Lord ; in the internal, the Word ; and in the external or proximate interior sense, doctrine thence derived, 3880. See Tribes (Judah). It signifies the divine principle of love, and the Lord's celestial kingdom, 3880. It signifies the acknowledgment of Him, and the things which are of him ; which acknowledgment is doctrine itself and the Word itself, 3880. Confession belongs to the 78 CON CON 79 celestial class of expressions being from the heart as the voice of love ; praise to the spiritual class, 3880. The sacrifices of confession or thanksgiving involve the celestial things of love and faith, 3880. In- terior, which is real confession, is attended with humiliation and with the affection of good, but exterior confession with the fictitious resem- blances of these, 2329. There must be confession of sins, that maa may be saved, 8387. In what the confession of sins consists and that it must be before God. 8388. A general confession of sin is not the confession of repentance, 8390. See to Repent. CONFESSION. See to Confess. CONFIDENCE [fiducia, seu conjidentiay The Lord was in m- most confidence and faith of obtaining the victory, because he fought against hell, not for himself, but for the whole human race, 1812. There can be no confidence of salvation except in the good of life ; but there are various kinds of confidence, 2982 ; which are further described, 4352, 9242. Genuine confidence or faith is derived from charity, 3868, 4352, 5826, 62/2, 6578, 9242. How fallacious the, so called, confidence of faith is when the affection of the life has been contrary, 3938. All confidence draws its esse from the end of the life, and hence genuine confidence only exists in good, 4683. The spurious faith or confidence, which may be excited by the near approach of death, effects nothing, 5826. Without the perception of the Lord's presence, or of good and truth, it is impossible to enjoy that confidence in him which gives rise to perfect tranquillity, 5963. Faith in an eminent sense is confidence, 6272, 9242. Genuine confidence is the offspring of good in the will, and is only given to those who are in the good of charity ; as genuine hope is given to none but those who are in the good of faith, 6578. The supposed confidence of faith is only natural, the essence and life of genuine confidence being the good of love, 7762. It is of love by faith, 8240. All who are in celestial love have confidence that they are saved by the Lord, 9244. CONFIRM, to [confimare]. See Confirmation. CONFIRMATION. Falses confirmed by a life of evil are dam- natory, 845. The confirmation of truth, by which it is firmly rooted and multipKed in the mind, is effected by the Lord through charity, 984. It is possible to confirm false principles from innumerable things in the Word, 589 ; and even truths are falsified by their connection with a false principium, 2385. The confirmation of divine truth with those who think of the Lord as changeable like men, is signified by the Lord's swearing, 2842. See also 7192. How necessary it is truth should be confirmed with those who have no perception of it, 3388. Universal confirmation, including the confirmation of things not un- derstood, is effected by the idea of sanctity attaching to them, 3388. Without a knowledge of the internal sense of the Word, any dogma may be confirmed from it, 4677 at the end, 6222, 8521. Falses, which are of three distinct kinds, are confirmed by a life of cupidities, 4729, 4730. It is not the part of a wise man to confirm a point of doctrine, but first to see whether it be true, 4741, 7012. It is in this that perception consists, 7680, 7950; which is only enjoyed by those who are affected with truth for the sake of the uses of life, 8521. Things which have been confirmed by the life as well as doctrine, remain to eternity, from experience, 4747. Falses may be confirmed. so as to appear a together like truths, 5033, 6865. The interpreta- tions of Scripture hy which they are confirmed are appearances of truth, 4/68; which appearances are intended for the initiation of the simple into the internal sense, examples given, 4783. See also 5008. The truths of faith and the goods of charity are more interiorly implanted and more strongly confirmed by temptations, 6574, 6663, 8098, 8099 • thus by the defence which they provoke, 6663. The light of confirma' tion 13 not the light of perception, or divine light from heaven, but is sensual light, such as belongs to the infernals, unless there be an noxrS^TTVT^i *^ ^''"^ Sounded in good, 8780,9300, 10,124. y^/^*OUND, ^0 [confunderel is to darken, to obliterate, and to dissipate, 1321.

Conjunction is predicated of the natural and rational as to good, adjunction of truth natural and the latter, 3514, 3660. Conjunction depends on the end regarded, and is effected first between the most interior, and the ex- tenor, 3a6o. All spmtual conjunction is effected by goods and truths, ^// 490^ iTL?"J"r?^^'°'' ^^' "'^^^^ *^ *^^«^' 3^12; the former III. 4J05, 10,367. The process of the conjunction of one good with another, includes mutual acknowledgment, agreement, affection, and initiation, to which conjunction itself succeeds, 3809, 3810. All con- junction m the other life is according to the will and thought, and not according to outward profession as the conjunction of friendship in this world, 41J(). Conjunction is what constitutes regeneration, ill, 4353 ^'■^^J^^^o conjunction there must be reciprocity or consent on both parts 6047. See Consent. With those who have been educated tor the world, and thought little of spiritual things, spiritual good cannot be conjoined but only adjoined as a means of confirming them 80 CON CON 81 in the truths of the church, when they undergo anxieties, 8981 . There can be no conjunction with the external without the internal, 9380, 1038 Hence there is no conjunction of the Lord with those who re- main* in the literal sense of the Word, 9380, 9396. But compare 3735, 3362—3365, 10,452. The Lord conjoins himself with those who are in gross ideas concerning spiritual things by the good of chanty and obedience, 421 1. He is conjoined with man even in his impurity, in order to vivify and affect him with innocence, 2053. The conjunc- tion of the Lord with the human race was the whole end of the assump- tion and glorification of his humanity, 2034, 2102, 2112. The con- junction of the Lord with the human race is by love and charity, and faith thence, 2342. He is present with man in love and chanty, either more nearlv or more remotely according to the degree in which they are received,' 1038; and by the internal man, 1999. This pre- sence or conjunction is not with the supreme divine, but with the divine human, and thereby with the supreme, 3441, 4211, 10,067. The appropriation and conjunction of the divine in man is by acknow- ledgment and affection, 5114, 10,205. It is by the good of chanty that the Lord conjoins himself with those who are m the affection ot truth, 9276; and consequently by which they are elevated into heaven, 7200. The conjunction of the truth of faith with the good of chanty can only be effected in freedom, 2877, 4029, 3158. Yet this conjunc- tion is necessary in order that man may come into the heavenly mar- riage, 3957. . 1 Ml • • X The difference between legitimate conjunction and illegitimate con- junction, ill. 9182. The affection of truth for the sake of life is the affection of conjunction, 9206, 9207. And the conjunction of truth and good is what constitutes the church, or the kingdom of the Lord, 10,367, 10,555. The conjunction of divine truth with those who do not acknowledge the Lord is profanation, 10,287. The conjunction of good with truth in the natural man is effected by spiritual combats or temptations, 3321, 4572; the reason of which, 4341, 5270; but to this end some good must exist in the will, 3.542; because good is the active cause and truth the reactive or passive, 4380, ill., 5928. See Reciprocation. At first, the conjunction of good with truth appears to proceed from exteriors to interiors, 3848, 4271. Hence truth appears in the first place before conjunction, and good after, 4337, 6717. The conjunction of good and truth is effected by a life according to the truths of faith, 10,237i. The actual conjunction of good and truth is not in the natural but the rational, 3098, 3123 — 3128; the manner of which is ill. 3128, 10,143; and in respect to charity and faith, 77b7—77b9. What appears like conjunction in the external is only affinity, 4989. Good flows in by the internal man and is conjoined with truth insinuated by the external, 4352. It can only he conjoined with interior truths as man comes into illustration, 4402. The heavenly marriage or conjunction of good and truth cannot have place between good and truth of the same degree, 3952. Celestial and spiritual truths can only be conjoined so far as man is in the affection of truth from good, and in the affection of good, 3834. The internal and external man are never united, but are held in conjunction by the Lord, 1577. The beauty of the latter could it be united would be ineffable, 1590. The love of self and the world is what disunites them, 1594. Perception increases and becomes more interior, in proportion as the celestial things of the internal man are conjoined with those of the external, 1616. Before this conjunction the internal man is, as it were, dead, 3969. Good cannot be fructified, unless the doing of good is joined with the willing of good, and the teaching of good with the thinking of good ; that is, unless the exter- nal man be conjoined with the internal, 3987. When this conjunction is effected man wakes as from a dream, and is illustrated as by the light of a clear day, 4283. This is meant by the conjunction of the celestial spiritual with natural good, 4275—427 7. How the natural man shnnks and withdraws from it, 5647. It cannot take place until the natural man is reduced to obedience, and, as it were, to nothing, 5651. Hence the labours and combats of temptation, 9278, with which compare 4353. The natural is not regenerated before it is conjoined to the rational. How this is effected, 3573. The conjunction of the natural and rational makes the human, 4108. The conjunction of the good of the interior man with the good and truth of the exterior, is both immediate and mediate, 3952, 3969; its application to the church, 5469. There is immediate, as well as mediate. Divine Influx into every man, and these are conjoined in those who suffer themselves to be led by the Lord, 7055. See Influx. The conjunction of the natural with the celestial spiritual represented in the story of Joseph and his brethren, 5710, and see, concerning the first and second conjunction there mentioned, 5645. The conjunctive principle is good in the will, which elects to itself truth in the understanding, 10,067. The conjunction of the internal of the church with its external, re- presented by the reconciliation of Joseph and his brethren, 5469 ; and of the truths of the church with scientifics, by their dweUing with the Egyptians, 6047, 6052. The conjunction of the Israelitish church with heaven, and by heaven with the Lord, was effected by representa- tives, 6877, 10,244, compare 10,698. But this conjunction was not so close as that^ effected by the representatives of the ancient church, 4874. Jehovah's speaking face to face with Moses signifies the con- junction of the Word internal and external, 10,554—5. The mutual conjunctions effected between its celestial and spiritual contents, and between these and the representatives of the letter are as innumerable as the connexion of the parts in the human body, and of societies in heaven, 10,554. All in heaven are conjoined, as it were, in one body, 9864. This conjunction is effected by spheres, which proceed from every society, and from every angel in a society, 9606. The two king- doms of heaven are conjoined by the good of love to the neighbour, which is the external of the celestial kingdom, and the internal of the spiritual, 5922, 9139; but with a specific difference which is de- scribed, 6435. See Mutual Love. All the angels are kept in aspect with the Lord, and in the bonds of conjunction, by their love one for another, 9828. The six universal laws by which this is effected, 9613. The consequence is, that every angel enjoys all the wisdom and in- telligence of the society with which he is more immediately associated, 4186. In like manner spirits are conjoined to man, by whom, under the Lord himself, he is governed, 4186. See Communion, Conso- ciation, Society, Communication. CONNECTION [nexus]. What a wonderful connection exists in G Hi 82 CON the internal sense between the historical and other portions of the Word, however varied in the letter, 1659, 2161. Such is the order, the con- nection, and the influx subsisting between heavenly and earthly things, that the perception of the former conveys along with it the perception of the latter, 1919 ; and He who governs heaven governs all things in the world and in nature, 2026. A similar connection of all things per- taining to affection, perception, and thought, is the means by which every human being is in conjunction either with heaven or hell, 2556. Without such connection man could not remain in existence a single moment, 2998, 9481. All truths are in affinity and connection with one another, 2863. It is by the Grand Man and its influx that man is connected with the Lord, 3627. Everything is contained in its connec- tion and form by two forces, ill, 3628. Everything in nature derives its existence from something prior to itself, and thus from the first and only existence, 3739, ^4523, 9481. They are derived by continual succession from the First Cause, 7270. The interiors are contained in their connection by ultimates, where they are at rest and in power, ill. 10,044. Illustrated and shown from the signification of the belt as a common bond, 9828. The connection of things is owing to the same- ness of the end in the first and the last, 6044. They are connected from first to last by correspondences, 4044. There is in man a connec- tion with the Divine, and his inmost is such that it is able to receive the Divine, and appropriate it by acknowledgment and affection; this connection with the Divine implanted in him is the reason that he is immortal, 5114. It is more or less remote, according to the reception of influx from the Lord, 5461; which influx proceeds by means of spirits and angels, 9438, 9481. Concerning the connection of evils and falses in man, and the means by which they are removed, 9334 — 9336. See Conjunction, Consociation. CONSANGUINITY [consanffuinitas]. See Affinity; and in ad- dition to the numbers there cited, 3703, 4619, 6756, 9079, 10,490. CONSCIENCE [conscientia]. See Bond, Perception. When evil spirits begin to rule, the angels labour to avert evils and falses ; hence a combat arises, which is sensibly apprehended by per- ception, dictate, and conscience, 227, 263. This assault of the consci- ence is spiritual temptation, 847. See Temptation. When doctrinals of faith are implanted in the man of the spiritual church, conscience is insinuated, lest he should act against the truth and good of faith, and hereby he becomes receptive of charity, 765. Hence, it is the con- science of what is right, 986 at the end, ill. 1798. Conscience is the , medium by which the intellectual part of man is separated from the voluntary part and its cupidities, 863, 875, 918, 1043. It is formed in the intellectual part, as ground, and in the good of charity there, 875, 895. Hence, all who have conscience are in the good of charity, and it cannot be given without charity, 1919, 2380. It is formed by the truths of faith, 986, 1077. It is the new will, 918, 987, 1023, 1043, 1044. It is the new will and the new understanding of the regenerate man, who comes into anxiety when he acts contrary to conscience, in like manner as the nnregenerate when he is restrained from acting accord- ing to his delights, 977, 4299. Conscience is implanted by the Lord in the internal man, where there is nothing but goods and truths, 978. It is an intermediate between the Lord and man, 1862. The Lord CON. 83 rules man by bonds of conscience ; and if he has not conscience bv external bonds, 1835. There is a true, a spurious, and a false consci- ence, which are respectively described, 1033. With the unregenerate man there is no conscience; and what its quality is if there be anv thing hke conscience, 977. They who actually separate faith from cha- nty cannot have any conscience, 1076, 1077. Adulterers have no con- science, 827; nor jugglers and syrens, 831. They who are evil in the other lite, cannot be punished by conscience, because they have had none; they who have had conscience are amongst the happy 965 Conscience is a kind of dictate flowing in by heaven from the Lord, the things which form it present themselves in the interior rational man • and trom the things of conscience is derived thought, 1919 It is otherwise, however, with those who have not conscience, whose thoughts are derived from sensual and corporeal things only, 1914, 1919 Hence they are not rational, 1814,1944. The thought of conscience is inte- nor thought, which is capable of animadverting upon the evils and falses of the external man ; those who are without conscience are with- out interior thought, and their rational principle acts as one with their corporeal sepsual 1935. The conscience is better in proportion as the truths ot faith which form it are more genuine, 2053, 2063 at the end. Ihe difference between perception and conscience is the same as be- tween the interior rational and exterior rational ; the former receiving the mflux of good the latter of truth, 1914, 2144. There is thought from perception, thought from conscience, and thought from no consci- ence, which are respectively described, 25 1 5. He who has perception is acquainted with the particulars, and the singulars again contained under them, ot general truths; those who have conscience only, with general or common truth, 865 The simple in faith, who have lived in conju- gial love, and have had conscience, come into heaven, 2759 They who have conscience do not swear in confirmation of the truth, still less they who have perception; wherefore it was forbidden by the Lord to swear, 2842. Conscience is formed in spiritual good and truth, also in what IS lust and equitable, and in what is honest and becoming, which are goods that succeed each other in order, as successive planes of in- telligence and wisdom, 2915. There are three planes into which the i.ord operates: the interior conscience, which is of spiritual good and truth ; the exterior conscience, which is of natural good and truth, and of civil good and truth, or of what is just and equitable ; and the sense of honour and fear on account of those things which are of the love of self and of the worid, 4167. The new will and the new understand- mg which form conscience are from the Lord; hence conscience is the Lord s presence in man, 4299. The conscience of what is good is from the good of truth, which is truth in the will and in act, 4390. They who are without conscience are in external things alone, 4459 Con- science is the interior plane in which the influx of divine good termi- nates ; interiorly it is the conscience of spiritual good and tnith, exte- noriy, of what is just and equitable, 5145, 6207. It is the boundary of the extenor rational part, as perception of the interior, both to the intent that the divine good received by man may not flow out, with- out direction by the way, and be turned into what is vile, 5145. Those who are obstinately conscientious in things not necessary correspond to the phlegmy parts of the brain, 5386, 5724. When any thing of g2 84 CON C ON 85 anxiety is felt on man's betaking himself to evil, it is a proof that he may be reformed, 5470. The influx of the angels is mto those things which are of man's conscience, 6207, 6213, which evil genu and spirits continually attempt to destroy, 1820. Besides the genmne conscience, interior and exterior, is the false conscience, vi^hen all things are done for the sake of self, 6207. They who are in false conscience, or m ex- ternal bonds, are able to discharge more eminent duties and do goods according to the stringency of those bonds, 6207. But they who do good from natural good, and not from the doctrine of religion, cannot be saved, and have not conscience, 6208. Men who are only natural call it weakness of mind to be tormented on account of the privation of truth and good, because they have no conscience, ill. 7217. Con- science is produced and formed from the truths of faith, and is in- scribed in the interior memory, to act from which becomes as easy and familiar as to act from habits of the body, 7935. The conscience of those who belong to the spiritual church, is a conscience derived iroin truths or from things beheved to be true, 8081. The voluntary prin- ciple with them has perished, but the intellectual part is preserved whole by the Lord, 10,296. Those who act from the love of self are not aware that conscience consists in acting and speaking justly from the pure love of justice, 8908. Seriatim passages on the doctrine of con- science, 9112—9122. That it arises from a religious principle, 91 12. That it is from the truths of faith, according to their reception in the heart, 9113, 9116. That they who have conscience speak and act from the heart, and that conscience' is improved with the illustrated and the intelligent, 9114. That it is a new will, and that it exists from chanty, 9115° That to act against conscience is to act against faith and cha- rity, thus against the spiritual life of man, 9 1 1 6, 9 1 1 7. That they are in tranquillity and blessedness, who act according to conscience, and con- trariwise, 9118. That there is a conscience of what is good pertam- ino- to the internal man, and a conscience of what is just, pertaining to the external man, 9119. Two examples concerning gain and dignity, to illustrate what conscience is, 9120 ; and hence the quality of those who have not conscience, neither know what conscience is, 9121. That they who have not had conscience in the world, have it not in another life, and that it is the plane and receptacle of the influx of good from the' Lord, 9122. Faith is called conscience when it passes from the understanding into the will, 10,787. . . CONSENT \ consensus]. In order that truth may be conjoined with good, there must be consent from the understanding and the will, and when it is from the will there is conjunction, 3157, 3158. It is predicated of the affection of truth, and is inspired into truth from good, 3161, 3179. Full consent is predicated of truth when it per- ceives in itself the image of good, 3180. To consent signifies accession, 4464, and agreement or concordance as to life, 4484, 4490. Obedience is predicated of what is comparatively vile, consent of what is more eminent, 6513, 8702. When good and truth are conjoined, there is reciprocal consent in every particular, 8702. How evil enters the will by detention in the thought, and by consent ; and how with consent the particular hell answering to that evil is opened, 6203, 6204. See Consociation, Conjunction. CONSOCIATION. All consociations in the other life are accord- ing to differences of mutual love and faith, 685, 1394, 2449. Thus according to perception and consent, 1395 — 1398. See Consent. Those who are in a similar state appear consociated, and if they mutu- ally touch one another, especially by the hands, the state of their life is communicated, 10,023. When evil spirits consociate in masses they are dispersed by cohorts of spirits whose operation is signified by the east wind, 842. Consociation in hell is according to differences of lust and phantasy, 2449. Those are consociated there who can act as one against good, though in internecine hatred themselves, 5764. In heaven, on the contrary, those are associated who constitute one good, because unity consists in the harmony of many similar things, 8003. This law of consociation was represented by the manner in which the pascal supper was ate, 7996, 7997, 8003, 9079. The consociation of angels and men is effected by the Word, 3982, because all thought in its first origin is spiritual and becomes natural by influx into the exter- nal man, 10,215. In like manner, the consociation of good and truth in the human mind is according to the consociation of angels by good and truth, 9079. See Communion, Conjunction, Communica- tion, Society. CONSOLATION, always succeeds to temptation combats, 1/87, 1865, 8415, 8567. It is an influx from the Lord into the affection of truth, 2692, 2821. Consolation after temptation is insinuated into good, and is from good, 2822. All consolation is by good and from good, or is according to every one's love, 2822, 2841. To be consoled denotes the restlessness of the mind appeased with hope, 3610, 4783, 6577. To be consoled is predicated of the understanding, and to speak to the heart of the will, 6578. How consolation, and also recreation by good and truth succeeds to temptation, 6829, 8165. See Recreation. It is occasioned by the communication opened with heaven, 8367. CONSTERNATION, denotes commotion, by which is meant a new arrangement and ordination of truths in the natural mind, ill. 5881. Also the terror and despair experienced in the regeneration, 8310 — 8314 ; and the fear and trembling of the evil, 9327, 9330. See Fear. CONSUME, to, [consumerejy is to perish by reason of evil, 10,431. Those who are in the love of self and the world would be consumed if anything of the divine were to flow in, 10,533. The bush not con- sunied by fire, denotes scientific truth not dissipated by the good of divine love, 6834. Silver consumed (or the failure of money) in Egypt, denotes scientific and practically applicable truth no longer appearing by reason of desolation, 6116. CONSUMMATION. The consummation of evil has arrived when it reaches the boundary to which it is permitted to go, when it runs into punishment, 1311, 1857. The consummation of the church arrives when there is no longer any charity, 1837, 1857, or good and truth, 2239, 10,249. The consummation of the several churches described ; in each case, when evil had come to its height, 2243, 2905, 4516. The consummation of the age denotes such periods, and when more interior truths can be revealed without danger of profanation, 3398. Thus, the consummation of the age and the coming of the Lord, denotes the last time of a former church, and the first of a new one, 4057, 4535, 10,622. Consummation, and what is consummated, 86 CON [:• • have reference to evil when it is brought to the height, both in general or in the case of churches, and in particular, or in the case of indivi- duals, 1857, 2243, 10,622. CONTAIN, to, [continere]. That which contains and that which is contained make a one, and hence the two things have a like signifi- cation, 5120, 5882, 10,177. Scientifics contain natural good, as the ears contain the corn, 5212. How all things are thus contained by more and more common or universal principles up to the divine itself, 6115. The external contains all the interiors in their order, and in their form and connexion, 9824. To contain oneself, or be silent, indicates perception, 3100; also concealment, because it prevents what is interiorly willed from becoming manifest, 5697. Not to be able to contain oneself, or forbear any longer, indicates a state of full prepara- tion when all things are prepared and disposed for the end, so that it then becomes manifest, 5869. CONTEMPT [contemtiis], A description of certain spirits by whom the Lord and all divine worship had been held in contempt, 950, 1878, and in like manner the Word, 5719, also of those who despised others, 4949. Such contempt of spiritual things, and also of others in comparison with themselves, arises from the proprium, when the external or natural man is not subject to the internal, 5786 ; and when man does not acknowledge that he is nothing but evil, and that all good is from the Lord, 5758, 7643. See Love of Self. CONTEND, to [contendere], as a prince, with God and men, sig- nifies temptation combats as to truths and as to good, 4287 ; but in the internal historical sense it denotes the opposite, namely the con- tumacy of the posterity of Jacob, because that people were not in goods and truths, but in falses and evils, 4293. Litigation or strife signifies contention concerning truths, and in favour of truths against falses, 9024, also denial, 3425 — 3427. Not to contend in the way, a state of tranquilHty, and confidence in the Lord, 5963. CONTENT [contentus]. The blessing of Jehovah, in the external sense, denotes a mind contented in God, whatever be its state in this world, 4981. See a similar expression, 5051, and compare 3938, 8717. All content and happiness is from spirits and angels, who are associated with man according to his ruling love, 5866. CONTINGENCIES [contingentia], which are generally ascribed to chance or fortune, are of the Divine Providence, and they denote things foreseen or provided, 5508, 6485, 6493, 9010. They appear like contingencies because Providence acts tacitly and secretly, 6485. To think otherwise is to attribute efi^ects to dead causes and not to living ones, 8717. See Fortune, Providence. CONTINENT. See to Contain. CONTINUALLY [juge\ denotes all and in aU, ill. and ah., 10,133. See also, 3994, 9485, 10,042. CONTINUOUS. See Degree. CONTRIVE, to [machinart], denotes to will from a depraved mind, 4724. CONTRIVER, a, or Skilled Person [excoffitatorl, denotes the intellectual part, 9598, 9688, 9835, 9915. What is signified by dis- covering or inventing, 10,332. CONVOCATION. The three great feasts of the Jews are called COR 87 holy convocations, because the whole company of Israel, according to their tribes and families, were then assembled, and represented heaven^ 7891. See Feasts. COOK, to [coquere]. See to Bake, to Boil. COPPER [cuprum]. See Brass. CORAL [ramuth], is mentioned along with the merchandise of Tyre, by which knowledges of good are signified, 1232. CORD Ifunis]. See Rope. CORIANDER SEED [semen coriandri], denotes truth and its purity, 8521. See Seed, Manna. CORMORANT [platea]. The cormorant, the bittern, the owl, the raven, denote genera of tne false which exist when the divine truths of the Word are made of no account, 5044. The cormorant and bittern lodging in the pomegranates [or capitals resembling pomegranates, Zeph. ii. 13, 14; Amos ix. 1. Authorized version, lintels] signifies falses of evil destroying the scientifics of good, 9552. CORN [frumentum], denotes natural good, and new wine (mustum) natural truth, sh. 3580—3941, 9780. See Wine. Abundance of provision denotes the multiplication of truth with good, 5276, 5280, 5292 ; 5358, compare 5345 ; provision, the truth of the church, or the truth of faith, 5402. Ears of corn denote truths of the exterior natural principle, which are scientifics, 5266. Seven ears on one stalk, natural scientifics conjoined in their origin, 5212. Corn in general denotes natural good, or the good of truth in the natural, 5295, 5410, 5737, 5959, 6537, 7602, 10,031, 10,402, from which is spiritual life, 5614. When predicated of the celestial internal it denotes the truth of good, 5959. It signifies the interior good of the spiritual church, 9960. It signifies truth in will and act, 5345. The corn in the storehouses in the cities of Egypt, signifies truths adjoined to good concealed in the interiors of man, 5342. Corn in the field [seges], signifies truth in the church; the sheaf containing the corn, doctrine in which is truth, 4686. Standing corn denotes the truth and good of faith in concep- tion ; when gathered together in heaps, the truth and good of faith received, 9145, 9995, sh. 9146. See Harvest, Wheat, Barley, Farina, Flour. CORN, standing [seges]. See Corn. CORNELIAN. See Precious Stones. CORNER [angulus]. Comers denote firmness and strength, be- cause there is the greatest resistance, and also the connexion of the whole, sh. 9494. Such is the strength and firmness of divine truth from divine good, and hence the Lord is called the head of the corner, 9494. Hence also the signification of the four rings upon the four corners of the table of shewbread, 9537, and of the four horns upon the four comers of the altar, 9719 — 9721. When the quarters of the world are meant by corners, they signify where that state is which is denoted by the quarter, 9642. See Quarters, and as to the west, or corner of the sea, 9755. The comer or stay of the tribes denotes what serves for supports to the things of faith, 1462. The corner of a bed and extremity of a couch denotes the lowest natural, that is, the external sensual, and its truth and good, 10,050, compare 6188. CORONATION. See Crown. CORPSE [cadaver], A man without charity is a dead carcass. 88 COR COR 916. With those who are called Babel there is no real worship, but what they interiorly worship is a dead carcass, 1326. The church is compared to a dead carcass when it is void of good, and thereby of the truths of faith, 3900. Where the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together, 1667; il. and sh. 3900, 3901. The sphere of those who have lived in hatred and cruelty is cadaverous, 1514, 5394. A heap of carcasses and no end of bodies denotes innumerable evils, and masses of those who are in evils, 6978. To be filled with dead bodies denotes spiritual death, which is the total deprivation of truth and good, 9809. Why the animal which died of itself or was torn by beasts was not to be eaten, 4171, 5828. A carcass signifies the death of good, occasioned by evils, 5828 ; or evils which are acquired by oneself, and confirmed in act and thought, 4171, 4172. CORRESPONDENCE [correspondentia]. There is in every man a celestial and spiritual principle, or internal man, which corresponds to the angelic heaven, 978. The external man is formed to correspond with and receive the influx of the internal man, 1460, 5131, and is brought into correspondence and concordance therewith by knowledges, 1461. There are things in the external man which correspond and things which do not correspond with the internal, and what they are, 1563, 1568, 3349. Between the Lord and man there is parallel- ism and correspondence as to things celestial, 1831 ; not as to things spiritual, 1832. The Word is written by correspondences, representa- tives and significatives ; the laws concerning servants, for example, 2567, and the correspondence of certain members of the body, 2763. Representatives and significatives originate in representatives which exist in the other life, but correspondences are altogether different in sound and signification from the things which they denote in the spiri- tual sense, 2763. Seriatim passages concerning representatives and correspondences, 2987—3003, 3213—3226, 3337—3352; especially concerning those that are in the Word, 3472 — 3485. Representatives are the external things which are put forth as efiigies of internal things, and those which concord, or which are rightly represented, are cor- respondences, 2989, 2990, 4044. There is nothing throughout the whole natural world, but has something to which it corresponds in the spiritual, and hence is representative of the Lord's kingdom, 2992, 2993, 3483 ; in like manner, all things in the external man, and the human body, 2994 — 2998. Correspondences, therefore, are things which stand in the same mutual relation to each other as the light of heaven and the light of the world, 3225, 3337. Such is the corre- spondence between the ideas of men and the ideas of angels, and between the literal sense of the Word and its internal sense, 3131, passages cited, 3349. Hence the conjunction and correspondence be- tween angels and men, illustrated by the case of the Holy Supper, 3464, and developed seriatim, 5846—5866, 5976—5993. There is but one only life, and to that life correspond forms, which are sub- stances or organs ; which organs have a quality according to the degree of their correspondence with life, as its receptacles, 3484. The things which belong to the light of this world only so far live and afiTect life, as they are adequately and correspondently conjoined with those things which belong to the light of heaven, 3485. The ra- tional principle, which, as being internal and nearer to the divine, is first 89 ^ LToHti^r °^*^^"6 ^"^ darkness in the natural, until the latter L&hV f?"^«P«°dence, thus until the things ;hich are in the responds tn tL J .Za A ' ^' ^^^^' Heaven, therefore, cor- henT heaveS i^ f h; 'p "!f V '" "" ^"^ ^^"^"^^^ ^^^"g^ ^o heaven; 374?' ^7^1 Ao^o^.c^T^ ^^" • s^"«^i"i passages, 3624—3649 il'^^''^' 4218—4228, also 2853, 4044 4318 10 C^n^..

Their influ" and c^rre spondence wi h man are unknown, because the very existence of « heaven and a hell is doubted, 4322. How there musT be a corresPon deuce of exterior things with interior, in order that one may be ,„ administering medium to another, illustrated by the philosophLal doc" 90 COU I trine of end, cause, and effect, 5131, and from the existence and sub- sistence, in one harmonious whole, of the universe at large, 5^/7. " there be not correspondence between the internal and fxterual, the former appears to the latter as alienated and hard, 5422, 5423. Illus- trated by examples, 551 1. By correspondences is e^^ected the conjunc- tion of things interior with things exterior, and at length with things ultimate, 8610 ; thus they effect the conjunction of heaven with earth, 8615. Correspondences have the greatest force, even to the working of miracles, and affecting the angels in heaven ; on this account the Word was written by mere correspondences, 8615. They consist in the subordination of inferior things to superior, so that the latter work in them as causes work in their effects, 8778. All things m the world, in its three kingdoms, are representative of the spiritual and celestial things of the Lord's kingdom, and also ^f. divine things, and this ac- cording to correspondence ; passages cited m illustration, 9280. Ihe representatives seen in the other life, are correspondences agreeing with the state of the interiors with spirits, 10,194. The correspondence of all the members of the body with heaven, shown from the statue of Nebuchadnezzar, namely, that the head corresponds to the inmost heaven, the breast and body to the middle heaven, and the legs and feet to the ultimate heaven, 10,030. The science of correspondences, though it is now antiquated and lost, far excels all other sciences, 4280. It existed in Egypt, and when the church with them came to an end, it was turned into magic and thus perished, 4964. It was known to the Arabians, the Ethiopians, and other eastern nations, but was at length obliterated, especially in Europe, 10,252. It was first obliterated with the Israelitish nation, 10,252. , ^ , . • ^ n * i CORRUPT, to [corrumpere], is predicated of things intellectual, thus of persuasions, 621, sh. 622. The way of all flesh being corrupt, denotes that the understanding of truth had perished by reason of man s becoming corporeal, 627, 628. To corrupt, when predicated of the truths of faith, is to extinguish, 9060; and when predicated of worship, to turn awav from the Divine, 10,420. COTTAGES [tuguria]. See Tent. . o • . a COTTON \xylinum], is the bi/sius or fine hnen of bcripture, ana signifies truth from the Divine, 5319. See Flax, Linen. COUCH [sponda]. The natural mind is signified by a bed, be- cause it serves aTa substratum to the rational, 6188. The extremity of a couch denotes the sensual part, and the corner of a bed, the lowest natural, sh. 6188, 10,050. See Bed. COUCH, to. See to Bow Himself. , , . . COUNTENANCE or looks [vultus]. To eat bread in the sweat of the countenance signifies to hold what is heavenly in aversion, 276. The countenance is an index of the mind, 1388, 6616. It is a type of the interiors, which are manifested in the face as m their image, 3527, 4066, 4292. Hence it denotes the state of affection and thought, 4066. See Face. , „ , ., . ^ i COUNTRY [patria]. Those who really love their country, seek its welfare without the least thought of reward, 381 6. A society of many persons is the neighbour in a higher degree than a single indi- vidual; one's country in a higher degree than a society; the church GOV 91 XoZ-'i^r -^'^^P^ ai&sr, :ra stiii' 8Q00 A J •'■'"*' 'V^" ^P'"'""! ^ense. the latter in the nftural ^Iff^Z^^^-,--^ - the. ^ villa°and caLtleT± , ° *^' ""S'""' '""Sr^"' 'te word that signifies the inirottCiythe ^11^^^^; ^27'^//^^ serve for introduction into houses Z Ji^.tfl ' ' ^^ 5°"'** troducing man into the trutrr^he cTurcf '5?8o' "h!^''"' ^-'t the interiors of the natural minrcourt its exte'rioS T/o?'*^^^ porches, outward things which cohe e with th nKsTntenW 73^?

Blood wa^ a s>gn of a covenant, because it signifies conjunction by spirUual loTe il 92 CRE C RO 93 that is, by charity towards the neighbour, 6804 at the end. To keep a covenant, is to Hve according to the precepts, thus in good, and to be thereby conjoined to the Lord, ill, 8767. A covenant can only be made between the Lord and man by his receiving the influx of truth from the Divine, and thus by correspondence; in this case conjunction is effected, because superior things can act in inferior as their subjects, 8778. To estabUsh a covenant denotes communication as well as con- junction, because things which communicate are conjoined, 9344. The conjunction of man with the Lord is effected by the Word ; hence the Word is called a covenant, as also the law, the tables, and the ark where the law was, sh, 9396, 10,632. Things were halved and set opposite to each other when a covenant was entered into, as in the case of the sacrifices and the tables on which the law was inscribed, on account of correspondence, sh. 9391, 9416. Why the salt of the sacrifices is called the Lord's covenant, 10,300. Passages cited, showing that a covenant denotes conjunction, 10,3/1, 10,632. See Conjunction. COVERING [velamen, tegumentum]. See Vail. COVET, to [concupiscere], is to will from an evil love, for concupis- cence or covetousness is nothing but the procedure of love, or the life of its respiration, 8910. It pertains both to the will and the understand- ing, being the continuum or procedure of the will in the understand- ing, 8910. The precept not to covet signifies that man is to be careful lest the evils which enter into his thought pass into the will, and go out thence, 8910. Not to covet denotes aversion, 10,676. See Concu- piscence, Lust. COW \yacca\. Cows denote interior natural truths, 5198, 5212, 5263, 5265 ; in the opposite sense, falses, 5202, 5268. Somewhat holy is evidently signified by the red cow, from the ashes of which the water of purification was made, 3300, 9723. See Calf, Cattle, Goat. CRAFT [^dolus]. See Simulation, Deceit. CREATE, to [creare]. To create, to form, and to make, in the prophetic writings signify to regenerate, but with a difference, 16, 88. To create is to regenerate or make man spiritual ; to make is to ren- der him perfect, or celestial, 472, 593. To create is predicated of some- what new that had not before existed ; to form, of quality ; and to do or make, of effect, 10,373. See, as to the signification of creating, 1688, 3043, 3704, 10,3/3, and as to the means and procedure of regeneration, 3470. The verimost reality and verimost essential in the whole universe is Divine Truth, or the Word, proceeding from Divine Good; it is this which creates and makes all things, 5272, 61 15. As to its procedure in the creation, 7270. The historical account of crea- tion in the first chapters of Genesis is only factitious, the new creation or regeneration of the man of the church being signified, and thus, the establishment of a celestial church, ill. 8891, 9942, 10,545 ; compare 9396. To create a new heaven and a new earth is to institute a new church, internal and external, 10,373, and the passages cited there. To be created denotes to be from the Divine itself, and thus in divine order from first principles to last, or from inmost principles to outer- most, 10,634. CREATION. See to Create. CREATURE [creatura], Man becomes a new creature when the external man is reduced under obedience to the internal, 9708. Crea- tures in the sea that have souls, or life, denote scientific truths in which is good, 6385. See to Create. CREEPING THING [r^^iVe]. See Animals. Creeping things of the water, or fishes, denote scientifics which belong to the external man, 40. The least part of every thought of angelic spirits not only lives but has a species of body, signified by the moving or creeping thing, 41, concerning the life of which see 9050. Hence the hving creeping thing denotes scientific truths, which are at the same time truths of faith, 9050. The sensual part and its pleasures, which creep as it were in the surface of man, are signified by reptiles and creeping things, 746, 810, 909. With the regenerate those pleasures correspond to the celestial and spiritual things which are of the will and understanding, 911; but more especially 994. They include in their signification that of birds and beasts, both clean and unclean, 994 ; compare 803. They signify the things of the will and understanding, but of the lowest kind, 674 ; thus external and sensual goods and truths, 9182, and their opposites, 9331. See Insect. CRIMSON [coccineus]. See Colours (Scarlet), CRITIC [criticus]. The ideas of such as read the Word with the art of critics appear in the spiritual world like closed lines, or a texture of such lines, 6621. CROOKED [obliquus]. The crooked made straight denotes the evil of Ignorance turned into good, and the rough places made into plain ways denotes the falses of ignorance turned into truths, 3527 at the end. CROSS, thelcrvx'jy denotes temptations, 4599, 8159; or the state of man undergoing temptations, 10,490-as truth divine was treated with contumely, scourged, and crucified by the Jews, 2813. The Lord's suffenngon the cross was his last temptation or combat with hell, 9930, ill. 10,659. It is not to be understood according to the faith prevalent at this day, 10,659. See Lord, Temptation. CROWD [turba]. In the beginning of illustration the mind is dis- turbed and agitated, and only becomes tranquil when truths are disposed mto order by good, 5221—5222. How crowds of evil spirits are con- nected with such ideates of turbulence. The means by which they are dispersed, &c., 842. A mixed crowd denotes goods and truths not genu- ^^' ''u L^* ^ ^^^^^ multitude or crowd signifies those who are of the church but not in it, as the Gentiles, who live in mutual charity but have no knowledge of the Word, 7975. How a great crowd of spirits, who were r- coherently mixed together, were gradually reduced to order by a choir of angels in their midst, 5396. Pharaoh compared to a great whale disturbing the waters, denotes scientifics perverting the truths of the church, 6015; disturbance denotes consternation of heart and soul, 9328. The Word is to be searched bv every one for himself, to see whether the doctrines of the church to which he belongs are in agreement with the truth ; but if they are found to disagree, care is to be taken lest the church be disturbed, 6047. If the truth is expounded by any but those who are teaching ministers, heresies come into existence, and the church is disturbed and rent asunder, 6822, compare 5432. The quality of certain spirits described who could be in great crowds without feeling disturbed, 5172. See Multitude. CROWN, the, or top of the head [vertex]. See Head, Naza- RITE. 94 CRY CUS 95 CROWN [corona]. Unless the holy things of heaven and the church were represented by the ceremonials of a coronation, thev would be nothing more than childish amusements, 4581. It was well known to the ancients what the crown, the sceptre, the sword, the keys, &c., signified, 4966. A golden crown upon the head denotes the good of wisdom, 6524, 9930. A crown of adornment signifies the wisdom which is of good ; a diadem of beauty, the intelligence which is of truth, 9818, 9930, 10,540. The golden plate worn by Aaron is called a crown of holiness because a crown is the representative of divine good ; and sanctity, of divine truth thence proceeding, 9930. A crown denotes divine good, from which is divine truth, and a crown and sceptre, go- vernment from both, 9930. What the crowns like gold worn by the locusts signify, 7643; and the crown of thorns worn by Jesus, 9144. See Throne, Sceptre, King. CRUCIFY to [crucifigere]. See to Hang, Stoning. CRUELTY [crudelitas]. Those who have been distinguished for cruelty have also been notorious adulterers, 824. Those who have been violent and unmerciful in the life of the body become incredibly cruel in the other life ; and into what phantasies cruelties are there changed, 954. The hell of cruel adulterers beneath the right foot, where there are such from the Jewish nation, 5057. How cruelly they delighted to treat the nations whom they overcame, 824, 5057, 7248. Those who cherish ill-will to others, if they are likewise adulterers, become cruel, 7370. The cruel are in the excrementitious hells, where are cadave- rous things, 5394. See Hell. CRY, or SHOUT [clamor], A voice crying, or the voice of a cry, is an expression of speech very common in the Word, and is applied where there is anything disturbed or unhappy; and conversely, on occasions of festivitv, 375. To shout from the top of the moun- tains is to worship the Lord from love, 795. To cry is predicated of what is false, 2237, sh. 2240, 2396, 5011; and of its wrathful aspect towards what is good, 2351. A cry from heaven denotes influx, 2692, and hence consolation, 2692, 2821, 2841. A cry in the night (Mat- thew XXV, 6) denotes a change in the church, 4638. To cry bitterly, lamentation over the false, or truth perished, 4779. To cry with a great voice denotes aversion, 5016, 5018, 5027. To cry denotes con- fession and acknowledgment by faith, which is the opposite of aversion, sh. 5323. To cry is predicated of indigence, or the want of good, 5365. When man cries to the Lord from evil, or for himself against the good of all others, he is not heard, and it appears to him that the Lord is without mercy, 5585, 6852. Also, when he prays and cries to the Lord in temptation, without overcoming the evil as of himself, 8179. A cry ascending to God denotes imploration and its being heard, 6801, 6802, 6852. To say denotes thought, hence to cry signifies to think more powerfully, thus, thought with a full intention of doing, 7119. See to Say. To cry is to testify indignation, 7142 It denotes inte- rior lamentation and intercession, 7782, 8179, 8573, and hence, sup- plication from the feeling of pain, 8353. The tacit supplication of the heart is heard as a cry in heaven ; this is what was represented by the vocal supplications or cries in the representative church, 9202. If the prayer and supplication originate in what is evil and false, they are not heard in heaven, but if sufficiently ardent they are heard as a cry in hell, 9202. Compare 10,456, 10,457. See to Pray. CRYSTAL [cry8taUum\ denotes the truth of faith derived from good, 9872. The knowledge of immaterial things is represented in the other life by crystals, 7175. [The translucence of the word in the let- ter from the truths contained in its spiritual sense is denoted by crystal Ap, Rev. 897, 932.] See Precious Stones. CULTIVATE, to or till [colere]. To be banished from Eden is to be deprived of all intelligence and wisdom ; to till the ground is to become corporeal, 305, 345. A tiller of the ground is one who re- gards corporeal and terrestrial things, and is without charity, 345, 381. See Cain. CUMMIN [cuminum]. See Fitches. CUNNING [astua]. See Deceit, Simulation. CUNNING WORKMAN [excogitator]. See Contriver. CUP [scypus, seu poculurn], A cup denotes the truth of faith which 11 from the good of charity, and, in the opposite sense, the false derived from evil, sh. 5120. Joseph's cup signifies interior truth as a medium, 5736, 5747. The various things in the external memory are so many vessels intended for the reception of interior things, and are signified by vessels in the Word, as cups, bowls, baskets, etc., 9394. Hence a cup signifies the intellectual part proximate to the senses of hear- ing and sight, and is predicated of truths, 9996. See Bowl, Vessels. CURDLE, to [coagulo]. See Milk. CURE, to OR TAKE care OF [curare]. See to Heal. CURSE, to [maledicere]. The Lord curses none, but is merciful to all, 245, 592, 1093, 1874. To be cursed is to turn away from what is celestial, and to turn to what is corporeal, 245, 379, 1423. A curse signifies disjunction, or aversion from good, 379, 1423, 3530, 3584 They are called cursed who have averted themselves, 5071. Hence blasting and mildew signify the non-reception of the good of love and the good of faith, 9277. Not to curse God signifies that divine truths ®"^ott"iSI\^^ blasphemed, 9221. See Blasphemy, Mercy. CURTAINS [auleBa]. The curtains over the habitation or taber- nacle were of goat's hair, because it signifies the innocence of ignorance such as exists with the Gentiles who were thereby represented, 3519 • or because it signifies truths from external celestial good which foni the external of heaven, 96 1 5, 9627. The three heavens with the Lord in the midst were represented by the tabernacle ; their ultimates by the vails or curtains, 3478, 3540. The ten curtains of fine-twined linen, and hyacinth, and purple, and scarlet double-dyed, signify the interior truths of faith, which are of the new intellectual part, and their deriva- tion from spiritual and celestial things, 9595, 9596, 9615. See Col- n^i*^^' r?u^^ particular curtain denotes one particular truth, 9602, i? -J ^"^ ''^"^^a'^t or superfluous part of the curtain hanging over the side of the tabernacle, denotes truth proceeding, 9627. Its edge the sphere of truth, 9606. To stretch out the heavens, and expand the earth, is to regenerate man ; thus, it is to create a new intellectual part, m which is a new will. The like is signified by expanding the curtains of the habitation, 9596. Tapestry, or hangings, denote truths, such as are m the ultimate heaven, 9743, 9756. See Tent. CUSH, [Cusch, KuscK]. See Ethiopia. CUSTODY, GUARD, OR WATCH. To GUARD, OR WATCH, OR KEEP [cuatodia, custodire]. To keep custody is to serve and be sub- 96 DAM D A R 97 M li ordinate, 372. When predicated of the Lord, it signifies the divine pro- vidence, 3711, 9304 ; and in the supreme sense, the divine continuum, or divine essence continued to ultimates, 3733. To feed and keep a flock is to have and apply that particular good to use» 3991. To keep, in the sense of remembrance, is to conserve within, 4/03 ; hence it is predicated of the memory, 9149. The corn preserved in the store- houses of Pharaoh denotes goods and truths stored up in the interiors of the natural mind, 5298. To be imprisoned, or given into custody, denotes rejection, 5083, 5089, 5101, and hence separation, 5456. Guard and custody are predicated of the Lord ; also of the prophets and priests ; thus of the Word, sh, 7989, 8211, at the end. To keep the Lord's covenant or precepts, is to live according to them, thus it is to live in good and be conjoined to the Lord, ilL 8767, 8881. To guard or keep, denotes to hold in bonds and to coerce, and is predicated both of good and of evil affections, according to opposites, 9096. See Prison. As to the protection or guardianship signified by the cheru- bim, see 9391, and the article. Cherub. CUT, to, or to Cleave, [secure, findere\ To cleave or rend the shoulder signifies deprivation of all power, 1085. Hewers of wood and drawers of water, signify those who perform comparatively vile uses in the church, 1097. Those who arrogate merit to themselves on account of works, appear in the other life to cut wood, 1110, 2784, 3720, 4943, and those who place merit in truths, to cut stone, 3720. A certain class of the former appear to cut or mow grass, 1111. To cut wood signifies the merit of righteousness, 2784, and such merit is in good done from the proprium. See Merit. To cut stones is to exclude or fashion truths from the proprium, 8941. To cut into segments or pieces is to prepare for arrangement, 10,048. To cut asunder or divide the sea signifies the dissipation of falses, 8184. To be cut off by famine is to perish from the defect of truth, 5302. CUT ASUNDER THE SEA, to. See to Cut. CUTICULARS \cuticulares\. Such as acquire truth without de- light, but only because they regard it as necessary to salvation, are called cuticulars, because they correspond to the cuticle in the Grand Man, 8977, 8980.

DAGGER [rnachcera]. See Sword. DAILY [quotidiel, denotes continually, what is perpetual and eternal, 2838 ; in like manner as to-day, yesterday, to-morrow, &c., 2838, 3998, 4304, 6165, 6983. Day by day, or daily, denotes in- tensely, 5000. As to the signification of the prayer : Give us this day our daily bread, 2493, 2838 at the end, 4976, 6110. See Day, Time. DAINTIES, or savoury meat [cupedia]. See Taste. f DAMASCUS, was the principal city of Syria, and has a like signifi- cation, 1715. The remains of the worship of the ancient church existed there, 1796. Eliezer of Damascus, the steward of Abram's house, signifies the external church, 1796. See Syria. DAMNATION. Divine truth, separate from divine good, damns every one, 6148. Damnation is the punishment which accrues to the false when truth is vastated, 7102 ; but it is in consequence of the evil and false procuring their own separation, 7791, 7878, 9020, compare 8286. With those who are damned, the truths of faith and the goods of love are extinguished, 9008. The process of final damnation ex, 7795, The sphere of damnation flows in from hell, and were all the hells opened, the human race would perish, 7879. Those who succumb in temptations come into a state of damnation, 8165. The Jews, when they neglected and thus annihilated their representative worship, represented the damnation of those who remain in their sins, 9965. Damnation, and thus immersion in hell, was also represented by the swallowing up of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, 8306. No one is con- demned because of the omission of external rites, but only for evils of the heart, 9965 ; nor for false doctrines, unless they are confirmed by evils, 845. To be damned is to perish by reason of evil, 2395. DAMSEL [pvella], denotes affection* in which is innocence, 3067, 3080,3110. See Girl. DAN. See Tribes. DANCE [chorea]. The timbrel and dance denote the affection of truth derived from good, 3081. Dancing is predicated of truth, glad- ness of good, 4779. In ancient times it was permitted to express spiritual delights by choirs, or by dancing and singing, as mentioned in the Word, where these things signify the joys belonging to the affection of truth grounded in charity, sh. 8339. Such dances and sports denote interior festivity, because all festivity is from the delight of the love in which man is, and in the Word internals are expressed by externals, *A. 10,416 10,459. See Choir. Music. DANIEL, when mentioned by name, represents whatsoever is pro- phetic concerning the coming of the Lord, and the state of the church at the last times, 3652. The prophecies of Daniel concerning the four kingdoms, and concerning the kings of Media and Persia, have respect to the internecine conflicts of evils and falses, 2547. In like manner, all the numbers mentioned in Daniel are significative, 1709. By the magi of whom Daniel is called the prince are meant such as were in the science of spiritual things and thence in revelations, 5223. DARIUS. As to the quality of worship signified by his requiring to be worshiped as a God, 1326. DARKNESS, Thick Darkness [tenebrce, caligo']. The things of man's proprium, which appear as light before regeneration, are thick darkness, 7, 21 ; because he is then in stupor and ignorance of all things relating to spiritual and celestial life, 1 7. Darkness denotes fal- sities, «A. 1839, 7688, 6015. Darkness denotes falses, thick darkness evils, ill. and sh. 1 860. In the original tongue the word translated dark- ness. Gen. XV. 17, involves the meaning and signification of both the above terms, 1860. The lumen of the evil is turned into darkness, and darkness is loved by them, 1528. In the hells there is thick darkness, which is derived from falses ; and cold, which is derived from evils. 98 D AR DAY 99 m 3340. There is also a lumen there, but it is like what is derived from an ignis fatuus ; and there is also warmth, but it is Hke that of unclean baths, 3340 ; as to the lumen more particularly, 3224. When the hells are looked into, there is seen a thick dark mist ; and the inhabi- tants have warmth from the hatreds, revenges, and murders, which they breathe, from experience, 3340. The inhabitants of hell dwell in a gross atmosphere, cloudy and dark, and also in cold ; their darkness and cold are proportionate to the hatred and the falsity in which they are principled, 3643, 8814. The hells are said to be in darkness be- cause they are in falses which appear as darkness when seen from the light of heaven ; but they have a lumen as from a coal fire, 4418, 4531, 7870, and also of a yellowish hue as from sulphur, 4416 ; thus they see one another, 6000, 78/0. Those who believe that they are wise from themselves are sent into a state of darkness where they become utterly stupid, from experience, 4531. The lumen flowing in from hell is called darkness, for it is turned into darkness when light from heaven flows into it, 5128. When man comes \ to temptations he is obsessed by evils and falses, and, as it were, in durkness ; for darkness, in the other life, is nothing but the obsession of falses, 6829. Thick darkness denotes the total privation of truth and good, thus, impene- trable falseness grounded in evil; darkness, the privation of truth, thus what is false only, «A. 7711. To feel or grope in thick darkness, denotes where there is contrariety to truth and good, sh. 7712. Divine light is as thick darkness and smoke to the evil, ill. and sh. 1861, 6832, 8197. Clouds and darkness are condensations of falses derived from evils, 8197. The darkness in the church at this day is much grosser than in ancient times, in consequence of confirmations from scientifics formerly unknown, 231—233. The light of truth becomes changed into darkness when man regards himself in place of the Lord, 1321. The mind or intellectual part of man is kept in a light which is quite different from the light of the world ; but what darkness this is to those who are in the love of self and the world, ill. 3224. When those who are without charity draw near to heaven, their light is changed into darkness, and their minds overcome with stupor, 3412. The love of self and the love of lucre induce darkness and stupor in the mind, 3413. Those who are in corporeal ideas only, that is, in the will of what is evil and in the understanding of what is false, can only regard spiritual and celestial things from the darkness and cold- ness of their own state, thus, they extinguish them. 3888. Black signifies evil, in particular man's proprium, depth of shade or dark- ness [tenebricosutn] what is false, 3993. Darkness upon the earth denotes falses occupying the natural mind, 6015. Those who are in truth and not yet in good are in shade and darkness, and what they see are only phantasms, ill, 6400, 10,201. When man is in the sen- sual state and its light, he is in darkness as to spiritual and divine things, and his sensual lumen is turned into mere darkness when it falls into the light of heaven, 6948, 9577, 9801. Actual darkness pervades hell when any light from heaven flows in, 7870. Truth divine is as thick darkness to the man of the spiritual church, and still more to the IsraeHtish and Jewish people, 8928; compare 8814. Those who refer all things to faith are in darkness concerning good, consequently they are in darkness concerning the conjunction of good and truth, and concerning truth itself, 9186. All heavenly and divine things are dark- ness to those whose internals are not open to the light of heaven, 9256, 9577, 10,156, 10,201, 10,227. DART [jaculutn]. See Bow, Archer. DATES. See Branch, Palm. DATHAN. See Korah. DAUGHTER [/lid]. In the spiritual man the intellect or under- standing is called male, the will female, 54, compare 8994. Hence the church itself, from the affection of good, is called a daughter, &c., 54. And hence sons denote truths and daughters goods, 489 — 91. In the opposite sense, daughters signify cupidities or lusts, 564, 568. Daughters signify the affections of good and truth ; daughter of Zion the affection of good, and daughter of Jerusalem the aff'ection of truth ; thus celestial and spiritual churches, 2362, 10,402. Daughters of the nations signify the various aff'ections of evil and the false, and their religious principle, sk. 3024. Daughters of the Canaanites signify aff^ections which are discordant with the truth, 3024. Daughters of Canaan signify the aff*ections of what is false and evil, 3683—6, 3662. Daughters of Heth the affection of truth with those who are without the Word, thus from a source not genuine, 3620. Daughters of Babel, those who are interiorly profane and e DE A DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY, the {niidius tertius]. See Day. DAY FOLLOWING, the [postridie]. See Day. DAYS OF ETERNITY, the [dies cetemitatia], or days of old, sig- nify the beginning, by which is denoted the commencement of man's regeneration, 16. Days of eternity denote the most ancient church; generation of generation, the ancient church, 477, 1259, 6239, 10,248; compare 3419, and see Age, Day, Eternal, Generation. DEAF [surdus]. The deaf are those who do not perceive what is true, and hence do not obey ; abstractly, the non-perception of truth, and hence non-obedience, sh. 6989. By the deaf, in the Word, are also signified the Gentiles who are unacquainted with the truths of faith, because they are without the W^ord, and hence cannot live according to them, 6989. The deaf are they who are not in the faith of truth, because not yet in the knowledge and apperception of it, briefly sh, 9209, 9397. Those who reason from sensual things, and thence con- clude concerning heavenly things, are deaf serpents, 196. To enter upon an explication of heavenly things to the unregenerate who have no notion of them is like speaking to the deaf, 4027. DEATH, dead [morsy mortuum]. He is a dead man who acknow- ledges nothing as good and true but what pertains to the body and the world ; he is a spiritual man who acknowledges spiritual good and truth, but only from faith ; and he is a celestial man who believes and per- ceives them from love, 81. Man is called dead when the external and internal are separated, 272, and when he is not in faith, 290. A man is called dead who lives the life of death, which is damnation and hell, 304. Death signifies the cessation of any particular state or quality, 494, 525, 2516, 3326, 4563, 4833. The death of the antediluvians was occasioned by an inundation of evils and falses, 660 ; compare 5725. In the other Hfe it is manifestly perceived what is alive and what is not alive with man ; how his good appears in each case, 671. He who is without goods and truths is not living but dead, 680. The worship of those who are in the love of self is interiorly as somewhat dead and cadaverous, 1326. Corporeal things must die before man can be bom anew or regenerated, as the body itself must die before he can come into heaven, 1408. The death of the body is only a conti- nuation of life in a new state, which is therefore signified by expressions relating to death when they occur in the Word, 1854. As to the life of man after death and the manner of his resuscitation, see Life, Resurrection. To see death signifies to perish, 2687. By the Lord's death on the cross all that was merely human was put off, illus- trated by the offering up of Isaac, 2818, 2854. To die denotes the last time of the church, when all faith, that is, charity, has expired, illus- trated by the death of Sarah, 2908, 2912, and by the death of Joseph, 6587, 6593. To bury the dead is to emerge from the state of shade and of night, predicated of the truth of faith, represented by death, 2917, 2923, 2961 ; compare 6557, 6558. To die, denotes an end of a given representation, illustrated by the death of Abraham, 3253, 3259 ; by the death of Ishmael, 3276 ; by the death of Isaac, 4618, 4621; by the death of Jacob, 6464, 6465; and generally, 5975: in respect to the office of Aaron, 9928, 10,244. To die is to rise again, or to end one state and commence another, 3326, 3498, 3505, 3523, 6008, 6036, 6176 ; ill, 6221, 6645. To be slain and to die, when it is DE A 103 predicated of good and truth, denotes not to be received, 3387, 3395. The proprium of man is nothing but evil, and when it is not vivified by divine good, or the Lord's proprium, man is said to be dead, 3813. In ancient times, wives who bare no children called themselves dead, and believed themselves to be so, and this from a spiritual cause grounded on the correspondence of sons and daughters, 3908, 3915, 3969. The life of the evil, though received from the Lord, is spiritual death, 4320, 4417, 5070, 6685, 10,363. Man cannot die when corporeal things are separated by the death of the body, because his interiors are conjoined to the Lord, 4364, 4525; compare 5114, 5144, 6326, 10,099, 10,591. Death denotes the extinction of the Lord's life, which is the life of the divine human, in man, 4724. It was customary with the ancients to bewail the dead, by which a last farewell is to be understood, though they knew that the person still lived, 4565. By death, in the Word, is signified hell and eternal unhappiness, and what is evil and false, as opposed to the life of intelligence and wisdom, 5407 ; or the life of truth, 5465, 7136. No other death is treated of in the internal sense of the Word than spiritual death, which is damnation, 5605, 5759, ah. 6119, 7136, 7494, 7954, 8364, 8407, 8571, 9007, 9008. Death is occasioned by sin, 5712, 5726, 8364. If man had lived the life of good, he would have been without disease, and would have become an infant again in his old age, but a wise one; and would then have passed into heaven, and put on a body such as the angels have without suffer- ing, 5726. See Disease. The destruction (or death) that wasteth at noon-day, denotes evil openly lived, by which truth is destroyed, 6000. When man is said to die he only passes out of the body which has served him as an instrument of use in this world into a body adapted for uses in the other, 6008. To place the hand on the eyes when a man dies, denotes to vivify or to elevate, and this by the closing of the external sensual and the opening of the internal, 6008. In the state of desolation, when truths are deficient, the spiritual life labors, and man is partly remitted into his proprium, hence there is then presented an image of spiritual death, which is damnation, 6119; compare 8571. Inasmuch as death denotes resurrection to life and regeneration, sickness denotes the successive state preceding, ilL 6221. The death of the men who were at enmity with Moses denotes the removal of falses that would destroy the Hfe of truth and good, 7021. The fishes dying when the waters were turned into blood, the extinction of scientifics by the falsifica- tion of truth, ill. 7318. The first-born dying or being slain throughout Egypt, the damnation of those who are' in falses of evil, or in faith separate from charity, 7871. They have life, and are said to be alive, who will what is good and believe what is true ; while they have not life, and are said to be dead, who will what is evil and believe what is false, sh. 7494. To die denotes the consumption or withdrawal of good and truth, 7507,7511,7699. To die denotes extirpation, 7738. To die in the desert is to succumb in temptations, and hence to be damned, ill. 8165. To die by the hand of Jehovah is to rush into damnation by relinquishing the Lord, 8407. Anguish, and as it were death, is occasioned by any attempt of those below heaven to enter into it, or of those in an inferior heaven to enter into a superior, or of those in the highest heaven to ascend to the divine, 8797; the reason, 8922. Dam- nation is called spiritual death, and yet the damned live, because they lot DEC DEC 105 have extinguished the truths of faith and the goods of love, which are the verimost life of the Lord with them, ill. 9008. By the dead saints arising, after the resurrection of the Lord, and going into the holy city, is signified the salvation of the spiritual church ; and that they were seen in vision, 9229. Knowledges of heavenly things become dead when they are only stored in the memory, and used for worldly ends, 9272. When man ceases to respire externally by the death of the body, he enters upon a respiration which is exactly accordant with the affection of truth in which he was principled, thus according to his life of faith, 9281. When death is predicated of Aaron and his sons, it denotes the end of what is representative, and thus of conjunction with heaven, 9928, 10,244. See above. The punishment of death for breaking the sabbath denotes spiritual death in consequence of non- conjunction with heaven and the Lord, 10,363, 10,731. DEBILITY [dehilitas\t signifies the diminution of potency, 86 IG. See Disease. DEBORAH, the nurse of Rebeccah, denotes hereditary evil, ill, 4563. See Rebeccah. The prophetic chant of Deborah and Barak treats of the perversion of the church and its restitution, 8753. DEBT [debild]. Those who are wise not only observe the laws of the decalogue externally, but also in internals, because the doing of such evils is contrary to the internal debt, or charity, between man and man, 4190. The conjugial debt signifies conjunction, 9003. DECALOGUE [decalogus]. See Law. The ten precepts or words of the decalogue signify remains, and the table on which they were written the internal man, b7^. All the precepts of the decalogue have relation to the life of charity and faith thence derived, ill, 1798, 1038. The precepts of life were adapted to use in both senses, those which were for use in the literal sense, were for the Jewish people of that time, 2609, compare 10,637. The moral precepts of the decalogue needed not to be miraculously revealed, as they were known to all nations, but they were so promulgated from Sinai on account of their internal sense, 2609, 3690, 8862, 8902 at the end. The precepts of the decalogue are called a covenant, because there can be no conjunc- tion between God and man unless they are observed not only in their external form, but in their internal, 4197 at the end, 8899. The laws of life which are in the decalogue and other parts of the Old Testa- ment are not abrogated, but confirmed in both senses, 9211. The ten commandments are the divine truths implanted in the good of those who are of the Lord's spiritual church, 8859. The signification of each commandment, tV/. and *A. 8860 — 8910. See Adultery, Sab- bath, &c. The two tables signify the law in the whole complex, 9416, 10,375. Why there were two tables, and how they were divided and written, 9416. See also 10,375, 10,376 and the numbers cited there. DECEIT [dolus]. Those who deceive by artful deceit, with a view to destroy souls, seem to live among serpents in a more direful hell than homicides, 830; compare 4533, 9013. There are differences of deceit, some being premeditated, and some not premeditated. The worst of deceivers are expelled from all society, and sit in solitary misery, like images of death, 830. Those who have simulated external decorum and religion for the purpose of obtaining influence over others, and drawing them into their lusts and pleasures, become jugglers and t I' soothsayers; their quality described, 831. The most deceitful are in an internal tun; they infuse deceits with so much subtilty that they are able to pervert the very thoughts, and even to substitute others for them; hence they are not admitted to men, 947. Concerning others ot the deceitful m an obscure chamber who have fraudulently deceived others with a view of possessing their goods, 949. Generally, deceitful pretenders undergo the various punishments of discerption ; the author's expenence, 957—960. Deceivers and hypocrites at first insinuate them- selves into societies; but they are rejected and fined, 1273. See Fine. feuch are meant by those who enter in, not having on a wedding ear- ment, 2132. The deceitful present the fallacy of being situated above the head while they are in hell beneath the feet, 1380. Infernal spirits are only allowed to speak what is false from their own evil, to speak otherwise being deceit, which is not permitted, 1695. The Lord conti- nually provides against the danger of good and evil becoming com- mingled, on account of the eternal damnation which it entails upon man • but there are deceivers and hypocrites within the church who are iri greater danger than others in this respect, 2427. Pretence and deceit were regarded as enormities by the most ancient people ; and the de- ceitful were cast out, as devils, from society, 3573 at the end He whose will and thought are not exhibited in his face as in their proper image is deceitful or a hypocrite, 3934. Simulation which has the good ot the neighbour, or the country, or the church for its end is prudence • but simulation that has evil for its end is deceit, 3993. Such deceit the evil call prudence, 6655. Simulation and deceit are rendered prac- ticable by the fibres of the cerebrum governing the fibres of the cere- bellum, 4327. Fraud is evil opinion and intention, and the fraudulent think and intend differently from him with whom they speak 4459 4469. As to the fraud of Jacob, 3660 ; and the fraudulent contract of his sons with Sheckhem, 4459. The state of a crafty and deceitful spirit who was known to the author in his lifetime described, 5058 Concermng the assumption of subjects by such spirits, 5989, 6197. 1 he deceitful when viewed by the angels, appear as serpents, and the most deceitful as vipers, 4533, 9013; compare 830. To act insidiously or lie m wait is to do evil from the will and from forethought, 9009 Deceit or guile is wickedness grounded in the will, in previous thought' or premeditation, which is the worst of all evil, 9013. Those who have acted from guile in regard to worldly things in this life, also allure others in regard to spiritual and celestial things in the other life- such are called genii, and their abode in hell is behind the back, where they have the power of rendering themselves invisible, 9013. They destroy the al of spiritual and interior life, and therefore are not admitted to men hke spirits, 9013. Because they appear like serpents when inspected by the angels, and what proceeds from them is venom, poison denotes deceit in the Word, and poisonous serpents the deceitful, sh, 9013 Ueceit IS hypocrisy in the spiritual sense, being so called when piety or charity, or innocence is simulated, sh, 9013. It is what is meant by the sin against the Holy Spirit, because hypocrisy or deceit in divine things infects the interiors of man, and destroys his spiritual life. 9013 See Hypocrites, Simulation. ^ r > - DECISION. The decision, consummation, and fulness of things 106 DEF denotes the end of the church, 1857, 2905. See Desolation, Vas- TATiON, Consummation. DECLARE, OR Tell, to [indicare], signifies to think and t « 1 « , 2862, 5508, 8142. Consequently to perceive, 3608, and to know, 3803; or to apperceive and communicate, 4856, 5264, 5922. Hence it also signifies to conjoin, 5596. To tell or indicate is to apper- ceive, because thoughts are communicated in the other life without speech, 5601. It signifies communication, conjunction, and influx, 5966, 6063, 7058. To tell what shall happen, communication and prediction, 6337. Tell me, I pray thee, exploration, 3111, and deli- beration, 3158. See to Say. DECLINE, OR TURN ASIDE, to [declinare], is to fall into what is false and evil, 4815. To decline, in hke manner as to descend, is predicated of elongation from good to evil, and from the true to the false, 4816; thus, of application to what is false, 4867. To decline, in a good sense, is to submit, 3068, compare 2330, 2339. To decline or pervert the judgment of the stranger, &c., is to lead by instruction to what is false and evil, 4844. To decline or follow after a multitude to do evil denotes confirmation and consociation with those who pervert truths and goods, 9252. To decline is to pervert, thus, to destroy, 9260. DECORUM. Honesty is the complex of all the moral virtues ; decorum the form, 2915. Where these are, the Lord is present with man, for upon them he founds conscience, consequently intelligence and wisdom, 2915. Honesty consists in willing well to others from the heart, decorum in the speech and manner, by which that honest will is testified or represented, 4574. The case of honesty and de- corum an illustration of the sense in which truths are to be regarded as the forms of good, 4574. DEDAN. See Sheba, Keturah. DEEP, Depth \profundum, pro/unditas]. Deeps denote the hells as to evils, because they are the opposite of heights, which denote heaven, sh. 8279, 8298, 8099. Abysses denote the hells as to falses because they are understood to contain waters, 8278, 8279. See Abyss. Deeps are exteriors, and heights are interiors, 9656, iU. 10,181. The want of love towards the neighbour is an infernal deep which separates man from the Lord, and into which those who are so separated fall if they approach towards him, 904. See Hell. DEER. The animal understood to be the stag, or male deer, [cervus, Ps. xlii, I; Is. xxxv, 6,] signifies the natural affection of truth, 64 1 3. The hind [cerva, the female of the deer] is an animal which rejoices beyond others in its freedom ; it signifies natural affec- tion ; specifically, the affection of natural good, 6413. Napthali com- pared to a hind let loose, signifies the affections of the natural man remitted into freedom after temptations, 3928, 6411 — 6415. The fallow-deer [dama^y and the roe, or roebuck [caprea], only occur, 2165, where 1 Kings iv, 23, is cited. Animals of this species would seem to come under the signification of the flock, 8937. See Flocks, Herd. DEFENCE [de/ensio']. Ultimate truth is a defence to spiritual truth ; it is also the means by which the natural man conjoins himself to the spiritual, and when the latter relinquishes it he has no means DEG 107 of defendmg himself against the former, 5008, 5022—5028. Hence It IS. as man becomes more spiritual that he is assailed by evil spirits who are ^H merely natural and thus comes into temptations, ill. 5036, compare 8960. Those who are in the truths of faith only are noJ admitted into temptations, because the Lord could not defend them agamst evils and falses, 8975. Evils necessarily lead men into falses, because what a man loves he cherishes and defends, and evils can only be defended by falses, 7437.

The inhabitants of hell are horribly defomed, and when seen m the light of heaven appear as monsters, 5199, 5377. Certain deformed spirits described, 5717. Spirits and angels are beau- tiful in proportion to the communication of their thoughts and affec- tions with societies ; if the communication is diffused in societies not according to celestial order, they are in that degree unhandsome ; if thej commumcate with infernal societies they are deformed and dia- bolical, 6605. See Beauty. • .^^^''.P^'j'"' ^■^^'' [ffradus]. The intellectual part of man con- sists of three degrees, which are respectively called, the scientific, the rational, and the intellectual, 657, 658, compare 5934. The differ- ence between the degrees of heavenly joy is such, that the inmost of one degree hardly approaches the outmost of another, 543. There is a like difference of degree in goods and truths, those in the higher degree being represented in the lower as in their images, 3691. With- out a distinct Idea of degrees, it is impossible to understand the nature ^L.^>T^"'^,^m^''-?f"u''^'?"''""^ '•'" ^°^y' "O' tow heaven is const tuted, 3691. The three degrees with man are in correspondence with the three heavens, and receive influx from them, ill. 3691. How much those things, which are in a superior degree, exceed, in perfec- tion and abundance, those which are in an inferior, 3405. The lowest degree is that which is called the external or natural man. the concu- piscences and phantasies of which are similar to those of animals • the middle degree IS the internal or rational man by which they are kept m subjection and ruled; the third or highest degree is most un- known to man, but it is the medium by which the Lord flows into the rational mind, 3747.

There are goods helin" °^»*"P'« "^egfe^ 1" the internal man, according to the three heavens ; and goods and truths of a triple degree in the external man, which correspond to them, ill. 4154. Degrees are as ladders from 108 DEG things interior to things exterior, and are so distinct that the interior are capable of existing and subsisting without the exterior, but not contrariwise, 5114, 5144, 6326, 10,099. On this account man cannot die when corporeal things are separated by the death of the body, 4364, 4525. There are three degrees in man answering to the three heavens, besides the body with its sensual faculties, 5114. The life which flows in from the Lord is derived from one degree to another, and becomes more and more common or composite, 5114, compare 3240. The in- teriors of man are distinguished into degrees, and every degree is so terminated as to be separate from the inferior or subjacent degree ; if this were not the case evil in the ultimate degree would flow in with defile- ment, 5144, 5145. Things interior and their quality in respect to things exterior cannot be known unless degrees are known, 5146. All thiugs are formed from one another successively, so that they are not united by a continuum, but contained within one another; he who conceives of formations, as of things continuously purer and grosser, cannot comprehend the internal and external of man, 5146, 6326, 6465, 8603. See Internal, External, Form, Connection. Man casts himself into hell or evil by degrees, first from consent, then from purpose, and lastly, from the delight of his life, 6203, 6204. Each degree in man is distinguished by its particular light, the lumen of the sensual degree is that by which hell flows-in, as heaven with its wisdom and intelligence by the clear light of the interior, 6310 — 6313. The degrees of regeneration proceed from truth to the good of life, and thence to good, 6396, compare 4145, 5605. It is impossible to liberate man from evils and falses at once, because they are so inherent that they can only be removed by various mutations of state, thus by de- grees, 7186, 9336. The vastation or removal of truth is in like manner effected by degrees, 7265, 7710, 7795, 7465. There are six degrees of divine truth, two of which are above angelic intelligence, 8443, 8603, compare 9435. The degree, both as to quantity and quality of good and truth with man, can be seen in the light of heaven but not in the light of the world, 8533 ; and no one can ascend higher than the degree in which he is, 8945. How the case is with degrees in successive order, illustrated from fruits and from animal life, 8603. To ascend by de- grees or steps denotes to be elevated to things interior, ilL and sh, 8945. In order to man's regeneration divine truth must be received in good from the Lord, and this can only be done by degrees, in the same order that heaven and earth were created, and in which they are sustained, 9336, 9435. All altitudes in heaven are relative to the Lord as a sun which is its centre, hence altitude or heights signify degrees of good and truth, 9489 ; hence also what is high signifies what is in- ternal, and good is more perfect in proportion as its degree is more interior, 9489 at the end. Altitude signifies degree as to good, and it signifies degree as to truth also when predicated of the ultimate heaven, 9773, compare 10,179, 10,181. All distances from the Lord, as the highest or inmost are so many degrees of good and truth from him, 9773. The Lord's spiritual kingdom consists of three degrees, the inmost communicating with the celestial, the outmost with the natural, and the middle participating equally of both, 9825. There are three heavens and three degrees in each ; there are also the same number in man, 9825. The influx and reception of the divine is in several degrees, DEL 109 and innumerable arcana are involved in each, 9940. The three degrees which succeed each other in heaven are called celestial, spiritual, and natural, and they are connected and make one by influx, 10,099, com- pare 8603. The learned of this day have no knowledge of degrees, except as to continuity, but the ancients were acquainted with them ; hence their knowledge of the separate existence of the spirit, and of man's capacity for being withdrawn from sensual things and elevated into the light of the spirit, 10,099. The interior degrees are opened by divine truths as vessels recipient of the good of love from the Lord, and in proportion as they are opened man approaches nearer to the divine, 10,099. And how impossible it is for anything to exist unless good and truth consociate to produce it, 5194. Degrees from interior to ex- terior, or from inmost to the outmost or the extremes, are called degrees of altitude or of depth, and are discrete from one another ; it is accord- ing to these degrees that the Lord is called the Most High, by which is meant the inmost and centre of all, 10,181. Degrees of greater or less purity, which proceed by continuity, as from light to shade, are called degrees of longitude and latitude, 10,181. Degrees of altitude are consociated according to correspondence, the things of the interior degrees becoming more and more perfect, 10,181. [That the spiritual degree, which is interior, does not communicate with the natural or exterior by continuity, but by correspondences, see Angelic Wisdom concerning Divine Love and Divine Wisdom, 238 ; and on the subject of degrees generally, the third part of that work.l DEISTS. See Deity. DEITY [^Deitas\ There is no real acknowledgment of the Deity except under the human form, 4733. Those who profess to acknow- ledge the supreme ens, of which they can form no conception, acknow- ledge no God, but nature in his place, 4733 ; because man is such that he can have no idea of the abstract, for unless somewhat natural is adjoined, his thought perishes as in an abyss, and is dissipated, 5110. Hence the divine human is the All in* All in heaven, 7211; and the means by which man can be conjoined to the invisible God in thought and aff'ection, 9972. The idea of God under the human form is from heavenly influx, and hence is according to the order and fluxion of heaven, which in its complex is one man, 10,159. The divine human seen in the sun of heaven, 7173; and the advent of God, as a man in this world, acknowledged with joy by the inhabitants of other earths, 9359. See God, Lord. DELIGHT [jucunda, juncunditas']. The phantasies that have been indulged in the life of the body are turned into filthy delights in the other life, 820, 954, 1742. Interior afl'ections and their delights be- come manifest in the world of spirits ; the more interior with their pleasantness in the heaven of angelic spirits ; the yet more interior with their felicity in the heaven of angels, 994. Pleasures, in the Word, are signified by reptiles or creeping things, and distinction is made between those whereof the delights are living or heavenly, and those whereof the delights are dead or infernal, sh. 994. See Creeping- Thing. Pleasure derives all its quality from delight, without which It IS inanimate and dead, 995. The delight of pleasure, thus of everything corporeal and sensual, is derived from interior aff'ections, 995. See Pleasure. Only that delight in which is good from the no DEL Lord can be called living, 995. Interior affections, if they are living, draw their deHght from good and truth ; good and truth draw their de- light from charity and faith ; and these again from the Lord, thus from life itself, 995. The various delights of the body and of sensual things are therefore denied to no man providing his intentions are good, 995. Delight grows vile the more it approaches to things external, and inde- finitely sweeter and pleasanter as it approaches to things internal, 996, compare 5620. Hence the delights of the body are held in contempt when man comes into the spirit, and these again when he comes into heaven, and so on to the highest of the heavens, 996. The living de- light of pleasure is derived from charity, and is proportioned to use, ilL 997, compare 1096. There is a two-fold happiness in the internal man to which correspond two delights in the external, the one being the delight of good, the other of truth, 14/0, compare 3589, 4301, 8056. Evil spirits can find no delight except in a life of cruelty and hatred flowing from the loves of self and of the world, 1742, ill. 3701, 5057, 7370, 7371. They delight especially in the destruction of man, 6192. They seek the evil of others for no end but the delight they find in it, 8293, 7032, 7392. Savoury meats or delicacies are expressed in the Hebrew tongue by a word which denotes the delight and pleasantness of taste ; in the internal sense, it denotes the delight of good and the pleasantness of truth, 3502, 3536. Nothing can remain with man which is not insinuated by some delight ; hence the natural man can only become regenerate by the insinuation of rational truths with de- lights, 3502, compare 7967. Such truths, together with all other scientifics, are situated in the memory according to the delight found in them, accordingly when the delight is excited the truth or object returns, and when the truth or object is remembered the delight re- turns, 3512, 4302. Love is the life itself of man, and such as his love is such is his delight, because it can only proceed from his love, 3539, 3701, 3938. The delights of good are called things desirable, the plea- santness of truth things delectable, because the affection of good desires, and the affection of truth finds delight in it, 3589. The same dis- tinction is observed between joy and gladness, 8056, compare 4301. Delight is an actual variation of form modified and animated by the influx of life from the Lord, 3726, compare 5147. The combats be- tween the delights of the natural man and the delights of the spiritual man constitute temptation, ill. 3928 ; for the external man is entirely occupied with the delights of evil, 6631 ; and the delights and blessed- ness of the internal man can only flow-in as these are removed, 6408. The delight of affection in the external sense, the felicity of eternal life in the internal sense, and eternity itself in the supreme sense are signified by blessedness, ill. 3938. They who are in the delight of the affections of what is evil and false, do not know what the delight of the affections of good and truth is ; and they suppose they should perish if they were deprived of their delight, shown from experience, 3938, 4063. Delights of the affections of truth and good effect con- junction, because the life of man consists in delights, 3939. Such delights flow-in by the medium of angels from the Lord, 4027. An illustration of the reality of truth and good and their effect upon man. The pleasantness and delight of seeing is of the soul and its affection, not of the eye, and what is not seen from any delight of affection is not DEL 111 inserted into the memory, 4301 . Those who are in faith separate from charity take no other truths from the Word but such as agree with the delights of their life, fully ill. 4769. The whole delight and happiness ot heaven consists m willing well and doing well to others, 4776 thus nothing affords them more joy than removing evils from man, and leading him to heaven, 5992. In the other life there are societies of such as have given themselves up to the delight of conversation, with- out regard to the good or evil of those with whom they associated- how they deprive others of all joy, and appropriate it to themselves,' 4804. How the posterity of Jacob delighted in cruelty, 5057. The intellectual part of man may be compared to forms which are continu- ally varied, and the voluntary part to the harmony resulting from such variation ; consequently, truths may be compared to variations and goods to delight thence derived, 5147. The good of charity yields nutrition to the spirit of man as food nourishes his body; illustrated by the opening of the meatuses or ducts of the body according to de- light &c., ol4/. All sweetness in the natural world corresponds to delight and pleasantness in the spiritual, ill. and sh. 5620. See Honey. ±.xternal delight contains somewhat of the love of the worid in it 5620 compare 996. And see below, 9213. The Word in the externd form s sigmfied by delight, because every one can bend it to favour his own love, o620. In Its interior sense it is the delight of spiritual and angehc minds, o648. Man is led to good by the delights of his life and by the mediation of evil spirits; his delights themselves being bent towards the liberty in which he is ultimately placed, 5993. When man casts himself into evil from the delight of his affection, then the hell correspondmg to such evil is opened to him, because its influx is into its own delight, 6203. So much of the delight of doing evil as remains after death can only be removed by punishments, and further bv demersions into hell, 7032. The interior goods of love and affection when they flow into the natural part of man are sensibly perceived there ^nnH« ?^ '/^' T^ ""^^ ^'^. ^^"^™«»Jy called delights are exterior goods, ^d:>Q The evd come into tedium instead of delight when thev are in mere falses, because they are unable to do evil ; hence they de- light m the appearances and falsifications of truth by which the upright may be deceived, 7392.

After re- generation the good of charity is the all of life, and the dehght of plea- sure is the ultimate plane in which spiritual good with its fdicity and blessedness is terminated, 8413. Those who can only be led by natural n!rl. i ""^l '^^^''™^!^ b"t "ot regenerated ; only those can be rege- \\2lfn "i; ^^^^^eceptive of the truths of faith, 8987. External de- hglits cohere with the worid, and are excited and vivified by its heat 112 DEP 9213, 9341. See below, 9996. Internal delights are in like manner coherent with heaven, and are excited and vivified by its heat which is love from the Lord, 9213. The delights of external love are as a shade in which the truths of faith cannot be discerned, 9213. The sensual scientific is the ultimate of the intellectual part of man, and sensual delight the ultimate of the voluntary part, 9996, 3293. The delight of love truly conjugial is both internal and external, the delight of love not truly conjugial is only external, 10,1/0. Natural and sensual de- light is signified by the calf as an idol, and it consists in the delight of pleasure, of cupidity, and of the loves of self and the world, ill. and«A. 10,407. Those who give themselves up to the loves of self and the world, at length find their delight in hatred and revenge, and after death rush into all manner of wickedness, 10,742 — 10,746. DELIVER, tOy \lib€rare.\ signifies to prevail, 6784 ; and to ex- empt or liberate from falses, 6854. Deliverance is predicated of the bound, who are such as are principled in good, and yet bound as it were by falses, 6854. Such were those who were detained in the lower earth until the Lord's advent, 7849, concerning whom see 8668, and the passages cited there. Their deliverance at the Lord's resurrection is signified by his descent to hell, and was also represented by the deceased who rose from the tombs and appeared to many in Jerusalem, 8018. No power but the holy proceeding of the Lord could deliver the spiritual church from falses, 6864 ; which proceeding is the divine truth manifesting the divine human, 6945. The process by which this deliverance is effected, ex. 8099,--that it involves three states repre- sented by the three festivals observed in the Jewish Church, 9286, 9294, 9295. No other than a gradual process is possible since no one can be introduced into heaven by an instantaneous act of mercy, 7186. It is the same thing as deliverance from sins, or the removal of evil, which can only take place as man seriously repents, 9077. It is an actual deliverance from the yoke and dominion of wicked spirits, 905, 10,219, especially 10,657. No one can be delivered from evil who believes that his actions are self-derived, 10,219. All deliverance from evil is owing to the subjugation of the hells by the Lord, and the glorification of his human, 10,655; see also 9937; and as to the temptations experienced by those who are delivered, 4299. See Temp- tation, Regeneration, to Escape. DELUGE [diluvium]. See Flood. DEMON. See Devil, Spirit. DENIAL \negati6]. See Aversion, Doubt. DEPART, to [eyredi]. See to Go Forth. DEPART, OR Journey, to [proficisci']. See to Journey. DEPART, or go away, to [ahire seu exire], signifies separation, not necessarily actual, but in appearance, 5827, compare 5696. To go, or to go away is to live ; also to live removed and in secret ; and to relinquish, 5962. To cause to go away is to dissipate, 8201. Moses sent away to the people by Jehovah, denotes the Lord's conjunction with them by truth from the divine as a medium, 8787. The Lord's going away to the Father denotes the union of the human essence to the divine, sh. 3736. See to Go. DEPENDENCE [dependentia]. All things that are in the world and in nature depend from heaven, and this more immediately from DE S 113 If 1 ' the Lord, who thus governs all, 2026. Every posterior formation exists separate from the prior, but not without dependence, 6465. See Degree. Dependence is the subordinate disposition of things from interiors to exteriors, as from angels and angelic societies to men, 8728. See Disposition. DEPOSIT, to [deponereX signifies to conceal or store up for use, 5299. r > DEPOPULATE, to [depopulari], signifies to disturb order, or cause a want of order, 6405, 6406, 10,227. See Tribes (Gad), DEPREDATION. See Thief. DERIVATIONS [derivationes]. The truths of faith variously accepted are called the derivations of faith or of the church, 3267. Truths of the second class, produced by the influx of the rational, are derivations, 3579, compare 7966. The derivations of divine good in the Lord's divine natural are signified by names only because they ex- ceed all finite intelligence, 4642. Unless there were a continuum of derivations in man, from the intellectual principle which is in the light of heaven, to the sensual principle which is in the light of the worid, the latter could have no human quality, 5114. These derivations are as steps or degrees, as of a ladder, between the intellectual and sensual, i7/. 5114. Derivations in the inferior degrees are only compositions, or more properly, conformations of the singulars and particulars of the superior degrees, with such things added, first of a purer nature, and afterwards of a grosser, as may serve for containing- vessels, 5114, compare 5122. The productions and derivations of goods and truths with the spiritual are eudless, 7966. In the chain of derivations and successions interior things do not cohere with exterior by continuity, but are distinct, ill. 8603, compare 5114. See Degree. Such is the continuum of evil which man derives from his parents and remotest ancestors, that his own proper life is nothing but evil, 8550. DESCEND, to [descenderejy is predicated of Jehovah, in like manner as he is called the Most High, from the appearance ; and when judgment is effected, 1311, 6854. The influx of divine love into the affection of good, and thence into the affection of truth, disposing all things m the natural man into order is signified by descent, 3084. To ascend is predicated of going to Jerusalem, because to interiors, to descend of going from Jerusalem, 3084. To descend mourning to the sepulchre, when predicated of the church or of divine truth, is to perish, 4785. To descend involves declension to evil; to ascend, elevation to good, ill. 4815, 4816. To descend is to pass from inte- riors to exteriors, that is, towards natural and terrestrial things, 4969, 5406, 5546. To descend, understood in the same sense as to go, de- "n*k^ ^^^^' ^^^^' also animus or intention, 5655, 5660. Jacob with all his household descending into Egypt, denotes natural truth about to be initiated into the scientifics of the church, 6004—6006, 6023. When descending is predicated of the Lord it denotes to inferior states, for example, to those who are of the spiritual church, 6854. It de- notes his presence by influx, thus his advent, 8792. To descend from the mount, predicated of Moses, denotes application and preparation, 8805. It denotes the influx of the Lord into the externals of the Word, of the church, and of worship, 10,689. To ascend into heaven denotes conjunction with the Lord, to descend from heaven the con- :: 114 DE S trary, 8760. To descend from heaven, when predicated of divine truth, signifies its influx into man, 10,396. To descend, in the spi- ritual sense, is not to descend bodily but mentally ; hence, Moses de- scending from Sinai when the people were practising idolatry, denotes the intuition and examination of their externals by divine truth, 10,419. Jehovah's descending in a cloud denotes the divine in the externals of the Word, 10,614. To descend into the deep like a stone is to go to- wards hell, by reason of the false of evil, which gravitates thither as what is heavy tends towards the earth, 8279. To descend is to become subject, 5809. By the truths of infancy and boyhood the angels of God ascend to heaven as by a ladder, and by those of adult age they descend from heaven to earth, 3701, 3882, 4009. All goods and truths descend from the Lord and ascend to him ; and if the life of man were according to order, the divine itself would descend through man to the ultimates of nature ; and from the ultimates of nature as- cend to him again. Thus it would represent the divine communication and conjunction, which is signified by the angels ascending and^ de- scending on Jacob's ladder, on the top of which stood Jehovah, 3702, 3721, 3726. Descent from heaven into the world, and ascent from the world into heaven, is effected by the brain and its interiors, 4042. See to Ascend, to Arise, Elevation. DESERT [solitudo~\. See Wilderness. DESIRE [desideriurn]. The goods of love and charity are the food and recreation of angels, such being their desires, 5147, compare 8562. Desires, loves, affections, &c., are spiritual heats deriving their origin from the sun of heaven, 5215. The respiration or breathing of evil love is called concupiscence, that of good love desire, 8910. Desire is the affection of conjunction, as in the case of good and truth, ill. 9206. Desire is the very activity of the life, for it is from the affection of good, 9269. Those who are principled in truths always desire to do good, such desire being in all truth by reason of its con- junction with good, 9207. The desire of truth to conjunction with good is signified by the salt of the sacrifices, &c., ill, and sh. 9207, 10,300. See Salt. Such desire is the conjunctive principle itself, 10,300, ill. 5365, 8772. When man has received good he comes into the desire of truth, and this desire is kindled in proportion to the defect of truth, ill. 8562, 10,290. Those who are principled in good, and hence desire to know truths from the Word, are affected with de- light by the influx of angelic wisdom into the sense of the letter, 5202. Those who are in good are in the delight of perfecting their good by truths, consequently they desire truths ; and the contrary with those who are in evil, ill. 5623. It is manifest from the desire of knowing in man that scientifics and truths are sustenance to his soul; the case is still more manifest with good spirits and angels, 6078. The man who desires heaven thinks no otherwise of death and of the sickness which precedes it than as resurrection into life, 6222. The delights of good are called things desirable, the pleasantnesses of truth things delectable, for it is the affection of good that desires, and the affection of truth that then enjoys delight, 3589. Spirits meet and are con- joined in the other life according to the state of desire one for another, 9104. DESOLATION, is predicated of the spiritual things of faith ; vas- 1 DE S 115 tation of the celestial things of faith, 411. Vastation and desolation are also called consummation and excision, 411. Desolations and temptations are inundations of falses, and are signified by inundations of waters, sh. 790. Desolation as to truth and good is signified by being cast under a shrub, in the fissures of the rocks, the rivers of deso- lation, &c., 2682. A state of desolation as to truth is signified by Hagar's despair on account of her child, 2689. Those who are re- formed are reduced to this state of desolation, in order that the pro- prium may be subdued, 2694. The desolation of truth is called afflic- ^^^^j"^?^^* "^^^ ^^^^^ ^^^^ ^^^ ^^ apparently deprived of truths is called desolation, but with those who are susceptible of reformation such truths are only indrawn, 5270. It is signified by a state of famine, closing m despair concerning spiritual life, 5270—5279, 5280, 6144, 7147. See Despair. The nature of such desolation farther shown] and that it is absolute with those who do not become regenerate, 5376. In the Word, desolation is used when truths are deficient, and vasta- tion when goods are deficient, 5360. Good spirits and angels actually appetite goods and truths, and come into desolation when they are not received, 6078, 6 1 1 0. A defect of the knowledge of good and truth is signified by famine, and hence desolation, or indigence of spiritual things, 5576 and citations there. To desolate denotes to deprive by lusts, and thereby to consume, 9141. See Devastation, Vastation. Famine. ' DESPAIR, or desperation [desperatio]. Temptations are ac- companied with despair concerning the end, 1787. They who are regenerating are reduced to despair in order that the persuasive light m which falses and truths are equally illuminated may be extinguished, and in order that the proprium may be overcome, 2682, 2694. The despair attendant on those who are about to be regenerated is concern- ing spiritual life ; the delight of the love of self and the world being removed, and the delight of the love of good and truth insinuated, 5279; Uence, it is the last state of vastation and desolation, 5280, 5369,8164. By despairs, desolations, and temptations, it at length comes to be acknowledged, that the all of truth and of good is from the Lord, 6144. The fallacies and falses which infest arise from the hells and are com- bated by truths insinuated from heaven, 7090, 7990. They who are in infestations, and in temptations, are brought to despair by the with- drawing of truths, 7147. The subjects of this desolation and despair suppose themselves to be damned, or delivered to infernals, 7155. Unless infestation and temptation were continued even to a state of despair the ultimate of use would be wanting, hence the temptation ot the Lord, which is the exemplar of the temptations of the faithful, w^as to this extremity, 7166. When temptations proceed to the length ot despair man is in the declivity to hell, and bitter things are spoken, which are not attended to by angels because temptation i^s to the last limit of the power of resisting, 8165. Temptations are continual des- pairs concerning salvation, comparatively light at first, but growing heavier and heavier by degrees, until the divine presence and aid are scarcely believed in, 8567. They are succeeded by comfort, and, as Q Jf ^' o ®^J^^*^ ^^^^ *^® ^^^* ^^^^* 4572, 5246, 6829, 8367, 8370, o5o7. See Consolation. DESTROY, to [perdere], when predicated of the Lord, denotes, I 2 H 116 DE V I to perish by evil, that is, to be danincti, 2395, 2397 ; and that it is impossible it can be otherwise, 2402. See Damnation. The des- troyer signifies hell, 7879, or the false and evil which flow in from hell, 7929. To destroy is to deprive any one of the truths and goods of faith and of love, which, in the Word, is called desolation and vastation, 10,510. See Desolation, Devastation, Vastation. DESTROYER [perditor]. See to Destroy. DETAIN, to [detinere]. Spirits who infest man detain him in the delight of his love as one bound ; hence to detain denotes to con- tinue to infest, 7501. If man were not momentarily detained from evils and falses by the Lord, he would rush headlong into hell, 789, 929, 5854. Such evils cannot be separated, but only reduced to qui- escence, thus the angels themselves are only detained or withheld from them, 1581, more especially 5398. The angels plainly perceive the detention itself, and also influx itself from the Lord, 2016. Those who are principled in faith and love to the Lord, derived from himself, are capable of being detained from hell and from eternal damnation, but no others, 10,153. How the spiritual church was detained in the in- ferior earth and infested by evil spirits, until the Lord's advent, 7090, 7932^. See Earth. DETENTION. See to Detain. DETERMINATION. There are two determinations of the intel- lectual and voluntary parts of man, the one outwards towards the world, the other inwards towards heaven, ill. 9730, 7607. It is essential that truths be determined to a certain form, or finished and closed exteriorly, 4875: compare Degree, 5144, 5145, and see Basket [caww^rt/wi]. The indeterminate of the internal sense of Scripture is determined to persons and particular modes of expression in the letter, 3776, compare 8705. To reflect on these outward determinations of the Word instead of the universal sense couched under them, limits the idea and turns the mind from the perception of the thing, 6653. To think of God without an idea of the divine human is to think indeterminately, in which case the thoughts fall into the idea of nature as God, 8705, compare 9972. All who think of God from themselves or from the flesh think of him indeterminately ; but those who think of God from the spirit think of him determinately, that is, they present to them- selves an idea of the divine under the human form, 8705. Certain spirits described, whose weak and indeterminate proprium renders them almost useless, 1937. DEVASTATION. A total devastation is the privation of all good and truth, thus, a state of mere falses and evils, 7770, 7947. The total devastation of truth is signified by the first-bom of Egypt perishing, 7039, 7699. The last state of devastation, when the evil cast them- selves into hell, is signified by the overthrow of all Pharaoh*s host in the Red Sea, 8210. That it is the evil who expel good and truth, and thus devastate themselves, 7643, 9330 ; and this by virtue of influx and communication with hell, 7879. See Desolation, Vastation. DEVIL [diabolus]. See Hell, Spirit. Inasmuch as all hell has one proprium and animus, it constitutes one devil, 694. Those who form this devil were once men in the world, being such as lived in hatred, revenge, adultery, &c., 968.

Tlfose whj Hi 118 DI S have genuine perception think that it is within them, and that it flows from the nexus of things, but it is a dictate from the Lord through heaven flowing into the interiors of thought, 5121. If a man recede from good and then comes into any anxiety, it is not from any innate dictate, but from the dictate of the faith in which he has been educated from infancy, 5472. With those who are in truths derived from good, or in illustration from the Word, a resplendence flows-in from heaven similar to that by which the responses from heaven were discovered in the breast-plate. It is this which, as it were, responds and dictates when they inquire into truth from the affection of the heart, 9905. DIE, to [won]. See Death. DIET \yictus\y or meat and drink, denotes the knowledges of good and truth, 1480, 9003. See Food, to Eat, to Drink. DIG, to [fodere], denotes to inquire, or investigate ; digging for water, the investigation of truth, 3424, 7343. It signifies to devise or fashion from the proprium, 9084, 9085. To dig through a well signifies doctrine from the literal sense of the Word, 3445. To dig through as a thief, the perpetration of what is evil in what is hidden, sh, 9125. DIG THROUGH, to [per/odere']. See to Dig. DIKLAH, one of the sons of Joktan, signifies a ritual of the He- brew church, 1245—1247. See Joktan. DILATE, to, [ditatarey'] or enlarge, in the internal sense is to illustrate, because illustration is an amplification or enlargement of the bounds of wisdom and intelligence, 1101. To dilate or enlarge thy border signifies the multiplication and extension of truth from good, 10,675, compare 80C3. Breadth is predicated of truth, hence to dilate is to receive increase of truth, 3434. See Expanse, Extension. DIMENSION. There is a three-fold dimension in all terrestial things, and when such dimensions are predicated of celestial and spi- ritual things, their more or less perfection, and also their quantity and quality is to be understood, 650. All things connected with worship in the ancient church, as the dimensions of the altar, its stones, &c., were representative, 4489. See Breadth, Height, High, Length, Measure, Number. DINAH, denotes the affection of general truths, or the church in which is the good of faith, which is the spiritual church, 3963, 3964. She denotes the affection of all things of faith, or the affection of truth, thus the church, 4427. Being withheld from Sheckem by her brothers and remaining among them as one polluted, she denotes, also, the church corrupted, or the affection of all falses, 4504, 4522. See Ha- MOR, Tribes. DINNER [praridium]. See Feasts [convivia], DISCERPTION . Divers punishments of discerption and laceration described, and the character of those who undergo them, 829, 956, 957, 959, 1983. They who inflict the punishment of discerption act in the form of a cone, 958. Discerption as to the thoughts, 962. All discerption in the spiritual world consists in the separation of good from evils and falses, 5828. Hence to be rent or torn signifies to perish by reason of such, 4777, 5828, 9171. Flesh torn in the field denotes the good of faith falsified, 9230. As to rending the garments, see Dust. DISCIPLES, the [discipuli], of the Lord represent all things of DIS 119 the church, thus all things of faith and charity, 2089 2129 2no 3354, 3858, 6397, 7418, 8902, 10,683. In the representative sense they signify all who are principled in the truths of faith and the good of charity, 6756, 9942. As to the numbers twelve and seventy, and the analogy of both with the tribes and elders of Israel, 9404, 3913 See Apostles, Peter, Numbers. DISCORD [discorditas].

Misfortune, sickness, disease, &c., are suf- fered at this day m place of temptations, the latter being experienced by those only who have a conscience of what is good and true, 762, 5353. Description of the spirits who correspond to the vicious things that enter into the purer blood or animal spirit, from which the most grievous and fatal diseases break forth, 4227. He is called sick who is m evil, and he bound who is in the false, 4958. Seriatim passac^es concerning the correspondence of diseases with the spiritual world, 571 1 —5727. Diseases correspond to the spiritual world in a wide sense • not to the grand man, but to those who are in hell, 5712. They cor- ^7 f!?"f i^ *^® ^"^^^ ^"^ passions of the soul, thus they are from sin, 571-, 5/26, 8364. All infernals induce diseases, but with a difference, because they are all in the lusts and concupiscences of evil, 5713. They are not permitted to flow into the solid and organical parts of the body but only into lusts and falses ; when man falls into disease, however, they have influx into the unclean things pertaining to disease, 5713. Ihis circumstance does not hinder man from being healed naturally because the providence of the Lord concurs with such remedies, 5713 Adulterers inflict pains in the periosteums, and the nerves of those parts, and this wheresoever they emerge ; also oppression of the sto- mach trom experience, 5714. A sphere of the most dreadful evils described which produced disease instantaneously, like a burning fever, 5/lo. When man falls into such disease, which he contracts from his lite, the unclean sphere to which it corresponds adjoins itself and acts as an aggravating cause, 5715. A cold fever is induced by certain spirits from unclean colds, also swooning, &c., 5716. Concerning those who have reference to the vitiated excrements of the brain, that they rush into the skull, and by continuity even into the spinal mar- row, and induce insanities and death, but that their hells at this day are closed, from experience, 5717. Concerning those who in their prin- ciples and life have been desirous of rule, that they excite enmities and hatreds, and have reference to the gross phlegm of the brain, by which they induce torpor ; how many diseases are thus originated, 5718. They who despise the Word and the life of charity have reference to the viti- ated principles of the blood which run through the veins and arteries, and contaminate the whole mass ; infernal spirits of this description are contined to their own separate hell, and only communicate with such as are ot a similar quality, and thus cast themselves into their haHtus or sphere, .^719. Hypocrites induce excruciating pains in the teeth, in the I 120 DI S DIS 121 bones of the temples, the cheeks, &c., 5/20. The most contumacious of all are they who, in the life of the body, have appeared more just and serious than others, and have lived only a life of self-love, in hatred against those who have not worshiped them ; these, when they apply themselves to man induce the most insufferable tedium, and such in- firmity of mind and body, that those who suffer under it are hardly able to rise from their beds, 5721. A similar weariness of life, and torpor of the joints and members is induced by the presence and influx of certain most filthy spirits into the soHd parts of the body, 5722. Other spirits, who had given themselves up to voluptuousness, occasion heaviness or pains in the belly ; also torpor in the members and joints of the sick, 5723. They who indulge in scruples of conscience on all occasions, and in matters of indifference, induce anxieties and act upon the abdominal parts and the region of the diaphragm, 5724. How it is with man when he is inundated by evils and falses, that he is indig- nant, and under the influence of vehement desire, 5725, compare 660. Evil is the first cause of disease, and it acts in the body by closing the most minute vessels which enter into the texture of the larger ; hence the first or inmost obstruction, and vitiation of the blood, 5726. If man had lived the life of good, he would have been without disease, and would have become an infant again in his old age, but a wise in- fant ; and would then have passed into heaven, and have put on a body such as the angels have, without suffering, 5726. Physicians, medi- cines, &c., signify preservations from evils ; for spiritual diseases are nothing but evils and falses, 6502. Inasmuch as to die signifies to enter upon life, and man enters upon eternal life by regeneration, to be sick, which precedes death, denotes the successive state preceding re- generation, *//. 6221. Diseases denote evils which affect the spiritual life of man, and tend to spiritual death, which is damnation, 8364, 903 1 . When man sickens as to his spiritual life, evil is derived into his natural life and there becomes disease, 8364. A burning fever denotes the cupidity of evil ; a plague, the vastation of good and truth; a leprosy, the profanation of truth, 8364 ; a dropsy, the perversion of truth and good, 9086. The Lord's miracles were heahngs of diseases because hereby was signified the iniquities and evils of spiritual life, hence they involved and signified states of the church, 8364 at the end. Hence also they were performed on the Sabbath day, 9086. Disease denotes falsified truth, and adulterated good, because good and truth are what constitute the spiritual life, 9324. DISPERSION. To be dispersed denotes to be dissipated, and is predicated of internal worship, 1328. Dispersion, which denotes ex- termination, is predicated of the internal man and of good, division of the external man and of truth, 6361, 9093. To be dispersed upon the faces of the whole earth is not to be received and acknowledged, 1308, 1309, 1324—1328, compare 1066, 1158, 1206, 1258. See Division. DISPUTE [lis, rixa]. To dispute, or litigate, denotes to deny, 3425, 3427, 3428. Not to contend, denotes to be in tranquillity, 5963. The well not contended about denotes the literal sense of the Word not denied, 3432. Altercation or dispute denotes combat, 6764. To dispute denotes contention concerning truths amongst those who be- long to the church, also the defence of truths against falses, in order to their liberation, 9024, 9260. Contention or strife is predicated of J truths and falses, 9041, 9252, 9253. Two subjects of strife have in- fested the church from the very beginning ; the first, whether faith or charity is the first-born, the second, whether faith separate from charity is saving, 9224. The contention of the learned at the present day seldom goes beyond the question whether a thing be or be not, 3428. How such contention arises from the prevalence of fallacies of the senses, ill, 6948. See Fallacies, Falses. DISH. See Bason [crater], DISJUNCTION. Nothing but charity, or love and mercy, is con- junctive; when this is wanting the bond between the Lord and man is broken, 379, ill, 2034. When man is disjoined from the Lord by the want of charity he is left to his own proprium ; all that he then thinks is false, and all that he then wills is evil, 389. The love of self and its cupidities disjoin the external and internal man ; in like manner, the love of the world and its cupidities, but not to the same degree, ill, 1594. The disjunction of the human race from the divine was the cause of the Lord's assuming the humanity, ill, 2034. Disjunction from the Lord is signified by evils and sins, because evils and sins considered in themselves are nothing but disjunction from good, ill. 4997. . Spi- ritual conjunction, which is charity or mutual love, is effected by the mind of one presenting itself in the mind of another, with all manner of good will towards him; spiritual disjunction, by its associating with another the thought and will of doing him evil, 8734. See Conjunc- tion. DISPOSITION, dispose, to, [disponere]. Before things can be disposed into order, they must of necessity be reduced to a common mass or chaos, in order that the evils which cohere may be dissociated and broken, 842. Truths are disposed into order when spiritual good begins to act in the natural mind, 4543. The order in which they are disposed when man becomes truly rational or regenerate, is answerable to the order of heaven, and is from influx ; hence, the faculty of con- cluding, judging, and reflecting, is so wonderful as to exceed all human science and wisdom, 2556, compare 5339. It is a holy arrangement or disposition, first, of common scientifics in order that particulars may be insinuated into them by the Lord ; after which, doctrinals or con- clusions from those scientifics are removed, 3057, i7/. 3161. In the process of this order of disposition a most exquisite exploration is effected, by means of which good elects to itself truth, and rehn- quishes all that is false to some evil, 3110. See Initiation, Con- junction. All disposition of good and truth in the natural man is effected by the Lord through the medium of the spiritual, and by truth there, in which consists the potency of good, 4015, compare 9337, 9846. It takes place when man acknowledges the love of the Lord and the neighbour, and all things confirming them, which are the things of faith, 4104, 9931. Sensual things are disposed into order, so as to receive the light of heaven, when they are brought under subordina- tion to the rational mind, ill, 5128. It is the life of charity by which the images and ideas of things in the natural mind are illustrated and disposed into the order and fairness of heaven, 5133, compare 9931. They are disposed under common principles, and in perpetual series according to the arrangement of societies in heaven, and thus adapted to the influx of hfe, 5339, 5343, 7403, 9337, 9846, 10,303. See Series. 122 DI V II Man must dispose himself to receive the influx of heavenly charity from the Lord, by removing evils, and, as far as he can, falses, 5354. Scien- tifics and the truths of the church are disposed into order by truth from the divine, and scientifics are so disposed first, ilL 5510. When so disposed they cohere together in series according to various aflinities and propinquities, not unlike families and their offspring, and so as to be excited at the same time and act harmoniously with good, 6G90, compare 9079. All things in heaven and earth were first disposed into order by heaven, and afterwards by the Lord's divine human, 7931. When man has undergone temptations his interiors are disposed into order, so that by influx immediately from the Lord, and mediately from heaven, he may resist falses and evils, 8131. The disposition of the goods appropriated by man is effected by the Lord at the end of every state, denoted by the sixth day ; such disposition also is followed by conjunction, which is signified by the seventh day, 8422. The dis- position of things from eternity and to eternity is effected by truth divine immediately proceeding from the Lord, and also by the media- tion of heaven ; such divine disposition or providence extending to the most minute particulars of all things, 8717. The subordinate or me- diate disposition of things consists in their dependence one from ano- ther, 8728. See Dependence, Degree. The disposition of truths and also of falses is according to ends and uses ; thus every one when he comes into the spiritual world is reduced to the state of his good or his evil, thus to the use of his life, or the end that he had loved above all things, 9297, compare 4104. The Lord flows into man by good, and by that disposes truths into order, and so far as this dispo- sition takes place evils and falses are removed, 9337, compare 4015. Hence it is that truths constitute the form of good, 9846. See Form. As to the disposition of natural good and truth to the influx of inno- cence, see 4021 and sequel. DISSIMULATION [simulatio']. See Simulation. DISSOLUTE, Unbound, Loose, Naked [dissolutus], denotes aversion from what is internal, 10,479, 10,480. See Nakedness, Aversion. DISTANCE [distantia]. Places and distances in the other life are nothing but varieties of state, and are determined according to the human frame, 1274, 4403. Distance has no effect in rendering spirits and angels invisible, 1274. The mutation of place and distance is only in appearance according to state, 1275, compare 1380. Hundreds or thousands of miles would be no hindrance to the mutual presence and discourse of persons so situated in the world, providing their in- ternal sight were opened, 1277. But see the seriatim passages, 1273 — 1277, 1376 — 1382. Places, distances, and places in nature, are states and mutations of state in heaven, 3356, 3387. The societies of heaven appear at a distance from one another according to the difference of affection as to truth and good, 6602. That distances in the other life are appearances from the diversity of states of life, 2625, 2837, 3356, 3387, 3404, 4321, 4882, 5605, 7381, 9104. See Place, Situa- TION. DISTURB, to [turbare]. See Crowd. DIVINE, to [divinare], signifies to know what is hidden, 5748 ; when predicated of the Lord, to know things hidden and future, 5781. DOC 123 i^ii^: Thmgs which do not flow according to the common order of nature can only be predicted from the Divine Prsevidence, notwithstanding the prophet may be a worshiper of other gods. The predictions of divniers, augurs, soothsayers, and Pythonesses, derived from natural magic, are always opposed to the Lord, and to the good of love and raith, 3698. See Magic. Divination, when predicated of the pro- pliets, denotes revelation which respects life ; seeing, revelation which respects doctrine, 9248. DIVINE, Divine Human. See Lord. DIVINE NAMES. See Name. DIVISION. To divide or halve denotes paralleUsm and corre- spondence, and as this cannot exist between the doctrines of faith and the Lord, the birds were not divided in the sacrifices, 1832. To divide unto [dividere super ad\ or share out, denotes disposition or arranee- ment, 4342, 4343, 4344. To divide the spoil denotes service, 8292. 1 hose who are in the knowledges of good and truth and yet in a life of ''T ^^!?/^^ TT*° ^^ divided when these are removed from them, ill, and «A. 4424.

Ancient Church, and constituted the word that was in use with the Ancient Church ; and because Noah was instructed in them ne is called a husbandman, or man of the ground, 1068, 1071. The nse of all doctrines, true and false, from this stock, is also signified by ^l!;I '^ '°"!' i^^l' ^°^ ''^^"^l ' ^"^ ^«"°"s remoter doctrinals, Tn rnnrrf f ^ ''''^!l ^^ ^^^^^^ l^^^' 1^52. See Noah! In course of time the first Ancient Church was adulterated, and its representatives and significatives turned into idolatry and magic; hence :*» 124 DOC DOC a second Ancient Church was instituted by Eber, the doctrinals of the antediluvian age constituting its internal worship, and sacrifices, &c., its external, 1241. See Eber. The doctrinals and rituals of the first Ancient Church were various in the several kingdoms over which it extended, but still the church was one, because charity was the essential in all, 1799, 2385, 2417. Their knowledges and scicntifics consisted in knowing what the rituals of the church signified, and how charity was to be exercised, 4844. Hence they were enabled to know what is signified by the neighbour, and what by the poor, the father- less, &c., 2417, 3419, 4844, 7259. It has been a subject of con- troversy from the most ancient times whether charity or faith is the primary, but the doctrinal of charity involves the all of faith, 2417, 2435. The Ancient Church, and ail other churches, know no other doctrine at their commencement than the doctrine of charity, but this has always perished in course of time, and been superseded by the doctrine of faith, 2417, 4720, 1834. In the Ancient Church, those who thus studied doctrine rather than life, and at length rejected the life by making faith the essential of the church, were called Philis- tines, 3412. Having rejected the doctrine of charity, they at length obhterated interior truths by the loves of self and the world, 3413. In like manner the Babylonians and Philistines of the present day, 3419, 3420, 1844. Their doctrinals were formed from external truths, 3857. How much the doctrine of charity, and the innumerable truths flowing from it originally prevailed over the doctrine of faith, 4844, 4955. And how scieutifics were thence all subservient to the love of God and the neighbour, or the doctrine of charity, 4964, 4966, com- pare, 2417, 4844. See Church. 2. How far essential to the Church. It is one thing to know from perception, and another to learn from doctrine, 521. Those who are in perception know what is good and true by internal influx; those who are in doctrine, by the external way of the senses, 52 1! Neither the scientific and rational things of faith, nor yet doctrine, constitute the church, but only the love and charity to which they lead, 809, ill. 916, 1798, 1799, 1834, 1844. Hence the church would be one if all had charity, notwithstanding their difference as to worship and doctrinals, 809, 1285, 1316, 1798, 1799, 1834, 1835, 1844, 3419, 3420. And hence doctrinals are of no account whatever if the life be not formed according to them, 1515. The doctrine of faith is nothing but the doctrine of charity, for it only exists in order that its teaching may be performed, 916, 2571. That is called the doctrine of faith which treats concerning truth, and thence good ; and that is called the doctrine of charity which treats concerning good, and thence of truth, 7053, compare 5542. Those who are in doctrinals and not in charity dispute about all things, and condemn all who do not believe as they do, 1798. Yet doctrinals do not constitute the external of the church much less its internal, 1799. If all had charity, even schism would not be called schism, nor heresy, heresy, but would be left to the con- science of every one as differences of doctrine, providing only that the Lord, and eternal life, and the Word, were not denied, and that the life was according to divine order, 1834. To look to doctrinals is to turn from good to truth, in which case the latter, as well as the former becomes vastated, ill. and sh. 2454. Even the life after death is not 125 really believed by those who instruct others in doctrine and nrA nnf • charity, 2454 at the end, compare 2416.

How this good differs from natural hereditary good, though there is some affinity between them in externals, 4988. Doctrinals are the spiritual or interior truths pertaining to the natural man, and arc eliminated from scientific and sensual truths after he attains adult age, 3310: compare, generally, 5432, 6047. The truth of doctrine is acquired by the external way, the good of life by an internal way ; hence, it appears as though the truth of doctrine or faith were prior to good or charity, 3324, 3030, 3098. The true doctrine, however, by which the priority of charity is determined, is as follows : — 4. The comprehension of all Doctrine in Charity. Man considered in himself can neither do anything that is good, nor think anything that is true, 874 — 876 ; but good and truth from the Lord so far flow-in as what is evil and false are removed, 2388, 2411, 3142, 3147. The church comes into existence when truths of doctrine are implanted in the good of life, 3310. Good has the faculty of acknowledging its own truth, 3101, 3102, 3179. Truth is from good, and is the form of good, 2434, 3049, consequently it tends to good, 2063. It contains in itself the image of good ; and in good is its own primitive effigy, 3180. Hence, the faith of the church can never exist except in its life, that is, in love and charity, 379, 389, 654, 724, 1608, 2343, 2349. And to look from doctrinals of faith, and not from love and charity as the cardinal principle, is to turn back like Lot's wife, who became a pillar of salt, and thus represented a state of vastation, 2454. Good flovvs-in by an internal way unknown to man, but truths are procured externally by a known way, 3030, 3098, 3324. Truths are the recipient vessels of good, 1496, 1832, 1900, 2063, 2261, 2269, 3068, 3318. Hence, truth is vivified according to the good of every one, thus according to his state of innocence and charity, 1776, 3111. The truths of faith can be received by those only who are in good, or in charity ; the ac- knowledgment of the Lord by others is either wholly external or hypo- critical, 2261, 2343, 2349, 2354. Consequently where there is no longer any charity there is no longer any faith, 654, 1162, 1176, 2429. All the precepts of the Decalogue, and all things pertaining to faith are involved in love and charity, 1121, 1798. The Lord himself is present according to the state of love and charity, 904. The love of the Lord and the neighbour is heaven itself, 1802, 1824, 2057, 2130, 2131. The knowledge of doctrinals effects nothing without charity, for doctrinals regard charity as an end, 2049, 2116. There is no salvation by faith, but only by the life of faith, which is charity, 2228, 226 1 . If a cogitative faith had any saving efficacy all would be intro- duced into heaven, but this is not possible because the life obstructs, 2363. A saving faith or actual confidence of salvation can only be possessed by those who are in the good of life, 2982. Truth is not really truth before it enters into the heavenly marriage, or is accepted by good, 2173, 2429, 2503, 2507. The affection of good is of the life, and the affection of truth for the sake of life, 2455. By the in- flux of good truths are evoked from the natural man, and elevated into the rational, 3085, 3086. Thus the rational part of man is formed as he enters upon the regenerate life, 3161; and it is by good that he is regenerated, 989, 2146, 2183, 2189, 2697. The same truths are truths in a greater and less degree, and are even falses, according to 127 the state of those who acknowledge them as to good, 2439 Hence It IS not doctrine, or faith separate from charity, that constitutes the church, but the doctrme of charity and faith in one, 809 916 1798 1799, 1834, 1844. See above, 2. Hence also, the good of love to the Lord and of charity towards the neighbour is superior and prior to the truth of faith, and not contrariwise, 363, 364. Thus, there is only one doctnne throughout the Word which is the doctrine of charity. 344o. See Love, Charity, Faith. ^ 5.

The com mon heads into which doctrine is parted, and to which all truths refer, are doctrinals, 6146 Such truths or doctrinals are various m the spiritual church and being adjoined to good render it com- paratively impure, 6427. The spiritual, indeed,\re aware that good and truth proceed from the Lord, but when these exist in the rational mind, they regard them as their own, and thus do not separate them from their proprium, 3394. On this account the spin ual who are regenerating are willing that the things of faith should be simply believed, without any intuition from the rational principle, for they do not perceive how what is divine can have anythmg in common therewith, 3394. The doctrine of spiritual good is not so deep and ample as the doctrine of celestial good, 7258.

His initiation into the intelligence of wisdom begins with scientifics which are the truths of the natural man, after which come doctrinals which are the truths of the spiritual man in the natural ; how the substantial forms of the mind are modified and animated by the reception of these and of the influx of life from the Lord, 3726. 6. Connection of Doctrine with the Word, The Word is so uni- versal that it contains doctrine accommodated both to external men and to internal men, 2531, 9025, 10,028. The doctrine of faith is con- tained in the literal sense of the Word, from which, however, falses may be derived as well as truths, 3436. The doctrine of faith is the Word understood in its interior sense, 2762. The interior or genuine sense of the Word is the divine law represented by Moses, the exterior sense is doctrine represented by Aaron, 7089, compare 7053, 9424. All doctrine is from the Word, and it all teaches the worship and love of the Lord who is the Word itself and doctrine itself, 2859, 2531, 2762. The doctrinals from which the Word is to be understood are those of love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, ill, and sh, 3419, 3420. The church must of necessity be everywhere different, because it derives its doctrinals from the literal sense of the Word ; it is nevertheless one church if unanimous in willing well and doing well, ill, 345 1 . In all doctrinals derived from the literal sense of the Word there are interior truths, 3464. Divine doctrine is divine truth, and divine truth is the whole Word of the Lord, 3712. Hence it contains divine doctrine, in a threefold sense, the supreme, the internal, and the literal, 37 12. The literal sense and its doctrine can only be spiritually discerned from the doctrine of charity, 3419. The doctrinals, the rituals, and the knowledges of the church are only scientifics, until they are seen to be true by comparison with the Word, and are thus appropriated, 5402, 5432. Accordingly, there are two ways of procuring the truths of the church, namely by doctrinals, and by the Word ; if they are procured only by doctrinals, man believes those who have collected confirmations, but if by the Word, he procures to himself truths from the divine, 5402. They who are in the affection of truth for the sake of truth, and for the sake of life, do not remain in doctrinals, but search the Word, and see whether they be truths, 5432, more especially 6047. Those who are only in the afl^ection of truth from natural delight remain in the doc- trinals of their churches, 8993. Doctrinals of scientifics are those which are derived from the literal sense of the Word, which are espe- cially serviceable as a means of inauguration into the interior truths of the church, 5945. Doctrinals are from the Word, knowledges are from doctrinals on the one hand and scientifics on the other, but sci- entifics are from sensible experience, 6386. See Science, Know- ledges. The true doctrine of the church arises from the scientific truths derived from the literal sense of the Word, by its explication ; hence true doctrine is the internal sense, as perceived by the angels, 9025, compare 9409, 9430. Truth from the letter of the Word being dissimilar and sometimes contradictory in appearance occasionally weakens the doctrines of the church which are spiritual truths, 9025. The doctrine of the church often recedes from the sense of the letter, i X 902 J. Those who live an angelic life, accept the Word according: to the internal sense, for it is what the internal sense contains that is taught by the genuine doctrine of the church, that is to say, the Lord as the object of faith and love, and the love of all good that is from him .T w '^^^l**"^y towards the neighbour, 9086, 9430. They who read the Word from heavenly love are illustrated, and thence make to them- selves doctrme ; but they who read it from infernal love, are not illus- trated, but are thereby more blinded, ill, 9382. Those who are illumi- nated understand the Word according to its interiors ; hence they make doctrme for themselves from the Word, to which doctrine thev applv the sense of the letter, 9382. They who are in the external sense of the Word, and not m the internal, make to themselves no doctrine from the Word, 9409. All doctrine from the Word ought to lead to the understandmg of the Word in its internal sense, for the internal sense is nothmg but the doctrine of love and charity, ill, 9409. With those who are in the sense of the letter without doctrine, truth is not in any power, ill, 94 10. There is no communication with angels if the Word is understood according to the letter without doctrine, which is the internal of the Word, 9410. Those who are not wise in heavenly things imagine the Word in the literal sense to be doctrine itself, but w '"Vn^.o^"^ heavenly in doctrine unless it be eliminated from the 7rZ\ ^* aT'^T ^^^^ Doctrine, therefore, ought to be derived from the Word by those who are in illustration from the Lord, namely. 7XT n^^T^^.*'"*^ ^""^ ^'""^^'^ s^*^^' 9424, 10,105, 10,323! 1.^1.

Doctrines derived from the external sense of the Word, without the internal, are signified by idols, sh, 9424, 10,406. The external sense of the Word, without genuine doctrine from the Word, is obscure like a cloud, 9430 ; and those who are in it are merely sen' sual men, 10,582. When man is in genuine doctrine as to faith and Tot^IaI fe JS in the internal sense of the Word, for it is then in- scribed both m his understanding and will, 9430.

The external ^J^^^^TP ^°^^°c*''\»e to external men, and the internal sense, when collected from the various parts of the Word which are explained by those who are m illustration, to internal men, 10,028, compare 2531, of ft W ""' ?' u'^"! ^^' ^^^^ ^^ ^^^^ ^ *^™P' ^"^ tb« internal sense theMJnf.K^^^^ IMOl 10,584, and citations.

See Things purely divine could never be receiv>ed by man unless they r 130 DOM DOC) were expounded sensually, hence human members and affections are predicated of Jehovah, 2553. The Lord's intuition into this state, and the still grosser state into which men had fallen at his advent, was the reason why he first thought whether the rational principle was to be consulted in regard to the doctrine of faith, 2553. See above, lo this succeeded his perception and thought concerning the doctrine ot love and charity, which is divine doctrine itself, 257 1 . Hence to divme doctrine, or to the presence of what is divine in doctrine was adjoined rational human things, of which also progression is predicated, 28oS, compare 3161. To be in doctrine when predicated of the Lord is to be doctrine, for he is the Word itself and doctrine itself, 2859. Hence all doctrine treats of his divine humanity and the worship and love due to him, 2859, 5321. It is the supreme of all doctrines that the human of the Lord is divine, and how this is to be understood, ill, 4687. All doctrine treats of the good of love and the truth of faith, thus all doc- trine treats of the Lord by the medium of whose divine humanity all that is good and true proceeds to man, 5321. See Lord, Good, Truth DODANIM. See Elishah. DOGS [canes], denote the lowest or vilest of all in the church, who blather and babble of things belonging thereto, yet know little ; in the opposite sense, those who are entirely out of the faith of the church, and those who speak contemptuously of the things of faith, sh. 7/84. By a dog's not moving the tongue against the sons of Israel is signified that there should not be the least of damnation or lamentation with the spiritual church, 7/84. Dogs denote those who render the good of faith unclean by falsifications, because they eat unclean things, and bark, and bite men, ilL md sh. 9231, By the dogs that licked the sores of Lazarus, are signified those who are in good although not m genuine faith, 9231. A certain spirit described whose face resembled the jaws of a rabid dog, 5566. A dog like Cerberus seen by the author, and that it denotes a guard to prevent any one passing from the delight of eonjugial love to the delight of adultery, which is infernal, 2743, 5051. DOMINION [dominiutn]. Evil spirits, even though they are bound, think themselves able to contribute to the power and dominion of the Lord ; but dominion from the evil and the false is the very opposite of dominion from good and truth, ill. and sh. 1749. All dominion is of love and mercy, and is exercised without the will to dominate ; hence, evil spirits and infernals are given into the power of the angels, the Lord governing all, 1755. See also 50,905, 7332, 10,152. But subordination and government in hell, differs from sub- ordination in heaven, 7773, 8232. Dominion from the love of the neighbour exists with those who dwell together in patriarchal houses or nations; but dominion from the love of self with those who Uve in kingdoms, or under other forms of universal rule, 10,814. The spi- ritual or internal man acquires dominion over the natural or external man by temptations, 8967; and when this occurs a new state begins, 5159. Good always has dominion when man is regenerating, but the appearance is otherwise because it adjoins truth, 4977. See also 3582, 3587, 4250—4256, and compare 52. The internal man is enabled to rule the affections of evil in the natural man, 9069. The manner in which good exercises the dominion over evil, illustrated by 131 the spirits of another earth, 10,808. To reign is predicated of the understanding, to have dominion of the will ; hence the difference between kingdom and dominion, 4691, 4973, especially the analogies in the latter, domus, dominus, ^c.

A door signi- hes that which introduces or intromits man either to truth, or to good or to the Lord ; hence it signifies truth itself, good itself, and the Lord himself ; because truth introduces to good, and good introduces to the A \ ^4 ^^J^- ^^^ ®^*^ ^^^ admitted to the knowledge of eood and of the Lord, but not to actual acknowledgement and faith ; hence l.ot closed the interior door [ostium] leading into the house, in which were the angels, against the men of Sodom, 2357, 2376, 2380. Their laboring to find the outer door or gate [janua] signifies their inability to see any truth that leads to good, 2385.

Ihe Lord is called the door, because the divine itself can have no communication with men, nor even with angels, except by the dmne human, 8864. A door signifies communication as well as intro- iTi!''''-;!. I'f 'K'^Jn^ ""f^"' by which one apartment communi- cates with another, sh. 8989. Angels and spirits dwell in real habitations where everything is significative; communications of truth with good appear to the sight as doors, conjunctions by posts, and other spiritual things by apartments, courts, windows, &c., 8989. They are real correspondences, and are opened and closed in heaven according to com- munications, 8989. A door signifies approach and communicftiou ; to enter by the door is to proceed by the truth of faith to the good of chanty and love, thus to the Lord, 8989.

Those whose doubU concerning the truths of the Word only forerun their denial, are S asTncline to'a life of evil ; those whose ^ouhis.res^coeMh^ affirmation are such as incline to a life of goodness, 2o68, 2388. Doubts „e insinuated by the spirits adjoined to man "hen his thougl.tsj.ave been held in truths in order to their conjunction with good, but so ar L the affection of truth prevails with him he is led to the affirmative 4090. The first state preceding the appropriation of good « the state of doubting, the seconS consists in the dispersion of these doubt by reasons thf third in affirmation, and the last or ultimate, in act, 409/. Where worWly things dominate over heavenly things, truths are con- sumed away and brought into doubt; but where heavenly things pre- dominate, worldly things are illustrated and set in clearness, and dols removed, 4099, compare 42.50. The state of doubting is sig- „med by unseasonable sleep, as slackness or tardiness in spiritual Things by natural sleep, 4638. The doubting of the prudent or wise invofves the affirmative of truth, the doubting of the foolish involves the ne<^tive, 4638.

The drink-ofifering in the Jewish 134 DRY church signified faith in the Lord, 1071. The drink-offering poured upon the statues signified the divine good of faith; od, the divme good of love 3728. The stones which were accustomed to be set up m tne earliest'ae:es for signs and testimonies were at length treated as holy by those who lived immediately before the flood, who poured dnnk-offerings and oil upon them in order to sanctify them, 4580. The drmk-offering. which consisted of wine, denotes the good of truth, the good of taith or spiritual good, which is charity ; the meat-ofl-ering, which consisted ot fine flour and oil, celestial good ; in like manner, the bread and wine in the holy supper, sh. 4581, 10,079, ilL 10,137. A dnnk-ofl'enng ui the opposite sense denotes the worship of what is false, sh. 4oHl, lU, i^/ .

DRYNESS or DROUGHT [siccitas] . The external man is called the dry (land), 27; the want of water denotmg the ab- sence of anything spiritual, 806, 6976. Dryness or drought, from failure of dew or rain, denotes a failure of truth derived from any good, 3580. The waters being withheld, while the children of Israel passed the Red Sea on dry land denotes protection from the influx of falses, 8185, 8234. The waters returning upon the Egyptians, that the falses of evil revert to those who intend evil to the good, 8334. To dry the rivers is to dissipate falses, and to dry up the abyss to dissipate evils, 8185. Generally when waters denote falses, dry and drying denote D WE 135 non-falses; but when waters denote truths, dry and drying denote non-truths, ah, 8185. In like manner, when the subjects predicated are trees or herbs, or the harvest, &c., dry and drying denote what is contrary to those things; and that dry earth is predicated of good, 8185 at the end. A drought upon the waters denotes truths destitute of life, 8869, or the deprivation and consumption of the truths of faith. 10,227. DUDAIM. See Mandrakes. DUKES [duces].

As to mute grief, 1688. DUNG [fimus, stircus']. See Excrement. DUST [j)ulvis'\. To eat dust is to be incapable of living from any other than worldly and corporeal things, 249. Thus, it has reference to the love of self and the world, 3413. Dust signifies what is damned and infernal, 249, 275, 278, 7418, 7522. The humanity which the Lord derived from the mother, and which he put ofi; compared with the divine human, was as dust and ashes, 2265. To be clothed with sackcloth and covered with dust or ashes was a token of humiliation on account of evil, 2327, 4779, 7418. To rend the garments signifies grief on account of lost truth, to put dust on the head on account of lost good, 4763. Man formed of the dust of the ground denotes the external man, 94. To smite the dust of the ground is to stir up those things which are damned in the natural man, 7418. Dust signifies what is damned because the place where evil spirits are, and under which are the hells, appears as uncultivated and arid earth, 7418. See to Grind, at the end. In a good sense, the dust of the earth has re- lation to the immensity of celestial things, the sand or dust of the sea to spiritual things, and the stars of the heavens to both in a superior degree, 1610, 3707. The dust of the feet signifies what is unclean from evils and falses, 1748, or the natural and corporeal things which are with man, 2162.

See to Inhabit, to Tarry, Habitation. 136 EAR EAR 137 E. EAGLE \afmila\ By the carcase (Matt. xxiv. 23-28) is signified the church without the hfe of charity and faith, by the eagles gathered thereto, reasonings confirming falses and evils, 3900. An eagle denotes the rational man as to truth ; and, in the opposite sense, the ra- tional as to what is false or reasoning, sh, 3901. That it denotes the rational man, 5113. To bear on the wings of eagles, denotes to elevate by the truths of faith to celestial light, 8764. A great eagle with great wings signifies the interior truths of the spiritual church, 10 189. The spiritual church is called an eagle from perception, 9688. Certain spirits belonging to one of the earths in the universe, and who were seen on high, Ukened to eagles, not as to rapme, but as to keenness of sight, 9970. ^ ^, ^. • n EAR, the r«Mm]. denotes obedience, ah. 2542, 2965, especialy 3869, 4403, and seriatim, 4652—4660. In the supreme sense, it de- notes providence ; in the internal sense, the will of faith ; in the in- terior sense, obedience, ill. and ah. 3869. That which is heard is ad- dressed to the understanding as well as that which is seen, but the former affects the voluntary part also, and persuades to obedience, 3869. The left ear corresponds to obedience alone without affection ; ill.y by changes of influx into the face, &c., 4326. The right ear, on the other hand, derives its signification from good, which supposes love or affection, 10,061. The ear is formed correspondently to the modifica- tions of the air and sound ; the eye, correspondently to the modifications of aether and light, 4523, 6057. Thought is the speech of the s^rit of man, and the apperception of speech is its hearing, 46o2. The spirits who correspond to hearing, or constitute the province of the ears, are such as are in simple obedience, 4653. They are various, however, according to the parts and functions of the ear interior and exterior, 4653. The quality of those who correspond to the external ear in par- ticular, 4654. Certain spirits were observed by the author near the ear, and within it, 4655. They who do not attend to the sense of a thing, though they hear the words, correspond to the cartilaginous and bony part of the external ear, 4656. There are spirits given to whis- pering, especially into the left ear, the sinister manner in which they speak of others, &c., 4657. Of those who had immersed their thoughts in the scholastic philosophy and the influx of their speech towards the left ear ; the contrast between them and Aristotle, who spoke into the right ear, 4658. By means of the ear, the thought of one is transferred to the understanding of another, from the understanding it passes into the will, and from the will into act ; hence hearing signifies both apper- ception and obedience, 5017, compare 7216, especially 8361. When hearkening is predicated of those in lower stations it denotes obedience, when predicated of the more eminent, for example, of kings, it denotes consent, 6513. To see with the eyes is to understand and have faith, to hear with the ears is to be in obedience, 2701. To speak in the ear denotes application to the faculty of obedience, or the will, 2965, 2975, 8621, compare 3869. To bore the ear with an awl, in the case of the Hebrew servant, denotes the addiction of those who do not undcr- K stand truth, and are relatively not free, to obedience, 3869, 8990. To hear signifies to be instructed and to receive, sh. 9311 ; thus, hearken- ing, perception and obedience, sh. 9397, 10,061, where the ceremony of putting blood on the ears of Aaron and his sons is explained. Ear-rings, like ornaments for the nose, signify good, but good in act, and in the opposite sense evil in act, 3103, 3263 at the end. The nose ornament, which was applied on the root of the nose at the fiare- head, is expressed in the original Hebrew by the same word as ear-rings ; the latter were the insignia representative of obedience, the former of good, 4551. Ear-rings signify the perception of truth, and also obe- dience ; a nose ornament the perception of good, 9930, compare 10,540. Ear-rings of gold were insignia representative of obedience and of the apperception of the delights which are of external love, ill. and sh. 10,402. To put on ear-rings denotes to obey, 10,402. EAR OF CORN [arista]. Ears of corn, or spikes, denote exterior natural truths, or scientifics, sh. 5212, 5266. See Corn. EAR-RINGS [inaures]. See Ear, Ornament, Ring. EARTH, or Planet [^e//M«, planetal. See Universe. EARTH, or Land [terra']. The earth empty and void, or ground in which nothing is yet implanted, denotes man before regeneration, 17. The external man is signified by dry land or earth, 27, 913, 1016. It signifies a receptacle, 28. It is prepared to receive celestial seed by re- generation, 29. It is the external man which is signified by earth, the internal by heaven, 82, 1732. The external man is signified by earth while man is spiritual, and by ground or field when he becomes celestial, 90. When man is regenerated, he is no longer called earth, but ground, because celestial seed is then implanted in him, 268. Hence, in the early chapters of Genesis ground signifies the church, earth or land where there is no church, 566. The land or faces of the ground denotes wherever there is instruction in the truths of faith, 5ij7, 620. Conse- quently where the church is, 567, 662, 1066, 2571. Thus earth or land denotes the church itself, 566, 662. 1066, 1262, 1413, 16e7, 1733, 1850, 2117, 2571, 2928, 3355, 4447, 4535, 5577, 8011, 8732, 9643, 10,570. As it denotes the church in general, it also denotes the church in particular, thus the regenerate man, 10,373. In the Hteral sense the earth denotes wherever man is ; in the internal sense, where there is love, and as love is predicable of the will it denotes the volun- tary part of man, 585. Earth is predicated of love, ground of faith, because the earth is the continent of the ground, and ground of the field, in like manner as love is the continent of faith, and faith of the knowledges which are implanted in it, 620, 636, 1066, 1068. Earth is distinguished from ground as the man of the church and the church itself, 662, compare 10,570. The external man, and the body itself, are as earth or ground, the pleasures of the body as reptiles and creep- ing things, 909. By the whole earth, the ancients did not mean all lands, but only where the church existed ; in the opposite sense, how- ever, it signifies where there is no longer any church, but an unregen- erate people, 1066. Hence the land or earth denotes the nation dwell- ing in that particular tract and its quality, 1251, 1262, 1411, 8011. In a general sense, it denotes the external man who is not of the church, his will and proprium, &c., 1044, 1066, 1411. By a new heaven and a new earth is meant, in general, the Lord's kingdom, 1 733, 1850, 2571 ; 138 EAR EBE 139 or a new church internal and external, ah. 3355, 4447, 4535, 5577, 10,373, briefly 2117, 2118. See Judgment. In a special sense, by earth or land is meant Canaan, and thus, again, the Lord's kingdom, because the church existed there in ancient times, 1413, 1437, 1585, 1607, 2571, 4535, 5577, 801 1, 5136, 9325, and citations. See Church, Canaan. Earth or land has various significations according to the series of things treated of, 2571, and citations. Under all these various significations, it retains the signification of the church, which is its pro- per and universal sense, 3368, 8732. Inasmuch as it signifies the man of the church, the church itself, and the Lord's kingdom, it signifies the essential of these, namely, the doctrine of love and charity, ill. 2571. Also, rational truths illustrated by the Lord's presence ; thus, in the supreme sense, the Divine itself, because where the church is the Lord himself is, 3368, 3379, 3404, 8732. The people of the land denote those who are of the spiritual church, 2928. Land married denotes those with whom the understanding and will, or charity and faith are conjoined, 55. Land of the south denotes the good and truth of faith, 1458, 2500. Land of the east, the good of faith or charity, 3249 ; otherwise called the truths of love, 3762. The land of the shadow of death, the state of those who are in ignorance of good and truth, 3384. The land of Ham is the corrupt church of Egypt, 1063. The land of Egypt is the natural man, 5278, 5279, 5280, 5288, 5301, 5510, 6111, 6976, 10,156; also the vastated church, 6589 ; the state of infestation by infernal spirits, 7221, 7240, 7274, 7278, 7826, 8401, 8407, 8866 ; and damnation or hell, 8018, 10,156. The whole land of Egypt is the natural mind both interior and exterior, 5276, 5316, 5329 ; the best of the land of Egypt is the inmost of the natural mind, 6084. New or holy land is the Lord's kingdom, 4255, and citations. A land good and broad denotes where the good of charity and truth of faith are, thus heaven, 6856. A land inhabited likewise, because of \\h from good, 8538 ; and a land flowing with milk and honey, 5620, 6857, 8056. The midst of the land, signifies truth from good, or where it is, consequently the church, 7444. The deep places of the earth signify the truths of the church, which are called strengths of the mountains from power grounded in good, 4402. In the world of spirits, the lower earth is the region under the feet, where well-disposed spirits are, before they are elevated into heaven, ah. 4728, 6928, 7090. Beneath it are places of vastation which are called pits, and in a lower region, extending round about, are the hells, 4728. Those who are in the lower earth are in the region of the belly and intestines, 5392. Their quality, and the relative situation of the places they inhabit more particularly described, 4940 — 4951, 7090. A very great number of Christians are sent into the lower earth, because they are natural, 4944. Those of the spiritual church who were saved by the Lord's advent into the world had been detained, and infested by infernal spirits in the lower earth, 7090. The vastation of what is false and contrary to the life of heaven takes place there at this day, 7090. The lower earth is signified by Goshen in Egypt, where the children of Israel were ; the Egyptian quarters denoting the hells round about, which infest, 7240. The land where they are who are in falses derived from evils, and whence they are cast down into heU, appears uncultivated and arid ; hence the signification of dust as denoting damnation, 7418. The earth swal- lowing them up, denotes danmation, thus immersion into the hells, ah, 8306. EARTHQUAKE, an [terrce motua], denotes a change of the state of the church, ah, 3355, compare 3353, 3354. See Earth. EASE [oHum]. The author's experience ccmcerning certain spirits who had given themselves up to ease and sluggishness in the life of the body; and that they induce heaviness in the stomach, 5723. How sensual they are who live in wicked slothfulness, 6310. The joy and blessedness of heaven does not consist in ease but in active exercises of use, 454, 6410. The Israehtes being at ease or remiss, in reference to the tasks imposed upon them by the Egyptians, denotes the insuffi- ciency of infestation by falses, to withdraw them entirely from divine things, 7118. '^ EAST [oriena]. See Quarters. EAST- WIND [eurua]. See Wind, Quarters (Eaat), EAT, to [edere]. To eat, in the internal sense, is to live, 270, 272—274. Also, to be communicated, appropriated, and conjoined, ah, 2187, 3149, 3168, 3734, 5643. Such is its meaning in the Holy Supper, 2187, 2343. The sanctified things of the sacrifices, being eaten, represented the communication, conjunction, and appropriation of celestial goods, 2187, 2343. To eat denotes the appropriation of good, and to drink the appropriation of truth, 3168, the nature and manner of which are explained, 3513. By eating and drinking in the Holy Supper, is signified appropriation, and what is meant by eating worthily, 3513 at the end. Feasts and repasts amongst the ancients, signified appropriation and conjunction by love and charity, 3596. See Feasts, Bread, Food. Eating also denotes the appropriation of evil, 4745. The ancients, after they had decreed anything which required the confirmation of others, ate together, by which the approval and appropriation of what they had done was signified, 4745. To eat in the original tongue is also to consume, which is its signification when pre- dicated of false principles originating in evil, 5149, 5157. To eat to- gether denotes fruition or enjoyment, 7849. To eat the passover, de- notes to be consociated, 8001. See Passover. To eat and to drink, denotes information concerning good and truth, ah, 9412, and in the opposite sense, the appropriation of evil and the false, 4334. To eat denotes conjunction and appropriation as to good, 3570, 10,686. To eat bread, confirmation in good, 6791. To eat the herb of the field, to live like a beast, 272—274. To eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, is to enquire into the mysteries of faith by sensuals and scientifics, 126, 128, 202. To eat of every tree of the garden, to know what IS good and true from perception, 125. To eat and drink in the Lord's kingdom, to appropriate the goods of love and the truths of faith, which are celestial food, 3832. See to Drink. EBER, the son of Salah, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem [See Shem], was the first institutor of the representative church which began in Syria, and was afterwards spread through many lands but es- pecially Canaan, 1 238. This church is called the second ancient church, the first being signified by Noah and his three sons, 1238. The two sons of Eber, Peleg and Joktan, signify the internal and the external worship of this new church, 1137, 1240, 1242; and in what the in- EDU 140 EDE 141 ternaland the external respectively f ?,«^^*^^\ ?241; -i^'' Tncipa^^^ mitted to institute this church, though its worship *^«f f ^^ P^^^ ^ Tn externals, because the former church had degejierated ^^^J^^^^l^ and in many places, had been turned to magic, 1241.

The scientifics sign fied bv Eevnt are all in *!,« nouse 01 Jigypt the good of the natural mind, 4973, 4980 ; thus^ the 141 EG Y good of the life, 4982. Egypt signifies the natural man, 5013, be- cause the scientific principle* is the truth of the natural man, 5079. When regenerated, it signifies the interior natural, 5080, 5095, 5H)0. The scientifics signified by Egypt are all those to which the goods of faith and charity can be in-applied, thus, all natural truths which cor- respond to spiritual truths, 5213. The wisdom of Egypt denotes the science of natural things, its magic, the science of spiritual things ; hence the wise men of Egypt denote exterior scientifics, the magicians, interior scientifics, and Egypt, science in general, 5223. By Pharoah and the land of Egypt is to be understood the natural man ; by the events which occurred there, matters pertaining to regeneration, and in the supreme sense, to the glorification of the Lord's humanity, 5275. All the land of Egypt signifies the natural mind, both interior and exterior, as the continent of interior and exterior scientifics ; thus the whole external man as distinguished from the internal, 5276, 5278—5280, 5288, 5301, 5338, 5341, 5359, 5363, 5364, 5366, 5373, 6015,6145, 6147, 6252, 6643. In its proper and good sense, Egypt denotes the scientifics of the church, 5373, 5700, 5958, 6015, particularly 5580, 6004, 9391, and the passages cited above, 4749, 4964, 4966. Pharoah signifies the scientific principle the same as Egypt, but in general or common ; consequently the natural man as a whole, 6015, 6145, 6147, 6651. In the opposite sense, the scien- tific principle separated, and opposed to the truths of the church; thus, what is false, 6651, 6679, 6683. The Egyptians, or people of Pha- roah, denote contrary scientifics, namely, such as are alienated from the truth, 5700, 7701, 6692, 6761, 6871. Pharoah and his people denote those who are in falses, and who infest others with their falses, as those who are in faith alone, and in evil infest the spiritual church, or the well disposed in the other life, 7097, 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142, 7280, 7317, 7498, 7502, 7506, 8049, 8132, 8165, 8364, 8528. AH such infesting spirits had belonged to the church when they lived in the world, 7502, 7926. Those who infest by the absolute false are denoted by Pharoah when called king of Egypt, because king in the genuine sense is truth, 6651, 7220, 7228. The land of Egypt as the abode of the Israelites signifies the lower earth, where they are who are infested ; as the abode of the Egyptians, it denotes the hells which are near the lower earth, 7240, 7090, 7445. See Earth. The land has the same signification as the nation itself, and the latter that which is predicated of it, thus the Egyptians and Egypt denote infestation, 7278, 8165, 8528. The Egyptians signify those who falsify truths, 7320. The house of Pharoah, and the house of his servants, and of all his people, denotes all things interior and exterior in the natural mind, 7353, 7355, 7648. Before vastation, the Egyptians signify those who are in falses; afterwards, those who are in evil, 7786 ; at length, those who are in mere falses from evil, thus, who are in damna- tion, 8132, 8135, 8138, 8146, 8148, 8161, 8217. Egypt and the Egyptians signify those who are in the science of spiritual things, and who separate life from doctrine because such was really the case with them ; they who are of this quality undergo vastation, and are then damned, 7926. Egypt, the house of servants (or house of bondage), denotes the spiritual captivity occasioned by the infestation of falses, 8049. The army of Egypt denotes the falses themselves; horses and EG Y 145 horsemen, the intellectual perversities and reasonings pertaining thereto ; the chariots, their doctrinals ; the captains, their common principles holding all in series and connection, 8138, 814G, 8148, 8150. In a summary, Egypt denotes science in both senses, good and evil ; in the former case the natural man himself both as to good and truth ; in the latter, ending in the representation of hell, 9340, particularly 9391, 10,437, and citations. 3. The Ancient Church and Idolatry of Egypt. The church de- noted by Noah and his three sons was not confined to a few, but ex- tended through many kingdoms, e. y.y Assyria, Mesopotamia, Syria, Ethiopia, Arabia, Lybia, Egypt, Philistea, and the whole land of Canaan on both sides of Jordan, 1238, 2385. It differed in rituals and doctrinals, yet it was one church, because all had charity, 2385. See Church, Doctrine. The doctrinals of this church treated of love to God and charity towards the neighbour ; its scientifics of the correspondence between the natural world and the spiritual, and of the representatives of spiritual and celestial things in those of the world, 49(i4. The Egyptians in particular cultivated this science, and were teachers of correspondences, representatives, and significatives, the ancient word that was extant amongst them being thus expounded, 49(54. See Word. In this primitive age they worshipped Jehovah, but they afterwards rejected him and served idols, especially the calf, and turned their representatives into magic, 5702, 7097, 9391. Their scientifics were instrumental to charity, the goods of charity and faith beuig contained in them as ends, 5213, G004 ; thus, they consisted of such natural truths as correspond to spiritual truths, 4749. On this account, the scientifics signified by Egypt are called the scientifics of the church, 4749, 4964, 49GG, 5373, 5580, 5700, 5958, G004, G015, G750, 9391. In the opposite sense, such as are contrary to the truths of the church, GG51, GG52, GG84, G692, 7097. They were of two kinds, the interior, which formed the science of spiritual things, and the exterior, which formed the science of natural things, 5223. The Egyptian mystics, the teachers of the former, were called magi ; the teachers of the latter, wise men ; and Egypt itself, the son of the wise, or the son of ancient kings, 5223, 729G. By means of their representatives and significatives, those who lived in the good of charity had communica- tion with heaven, which communication was open with many, GG92. When they departed from charity, the perversion of these interior scientifics gave origin to their magic applied to selfish purposes, 4680, 5223, 6692. At this time, they were in mere fallacies and falses, or the abuse and reflection of divine order in opposites, which enabled them to perform miracles similar in external form to those of Moses, 7287, 7297, 7388, particularly 7337. The abuse of order and of the science of correspondences consists in its application to evil ends ; thus in ob- taining command over others, and injuring or destroying them instead of doing them good, 7296. In consequence of its abuse in this way, their science was withdrawn from the Egyptians ; this, and the vileness of the evils to which they were given up, signified by the miracle of the lice and their inability to imitate it, 7419, 7426, 7427. They are now in the deepest region of the hell of magicians, 6692. See Magic. That the Hieroglyphics of Egypt, which represent spiritual ideas by means of natural objects, are a proof they were acquainted with the 1 1 146 EG Y actual correspondence of such things, 6692, 7097, 9391. 10,407. 10 437. See Hieroglyphics. That the ancient church of Lgypt >.as the representative church, 7097, 9391, 10,437., That it declined after the age of Joseph, 66-) 1, 66,i2. That its dechne was owing to the ahenation of science and faith from genuine religion ; thus, to sell- intelligence, 7039, 7926, 8364, 4735. That they who thus come into faith separate from charity, cast themselves into evds and falses, and that this was represented by the history of Cam, of Ham, ot Canaan, of Reuben, and the Egyptians, 332.5. That the gods of Egypt denote falses, 3325. And that the final end of the Egyptian church is de- noted by the overthrow of Pharoah and his host in the Red bea, 05«y. See below, (7). , a^ x i • 4. Abram and the Egyptians. For the part that Abram took in the representation of divine things, namely, of the Lord and the church: See Abraham (supi)lement). His going to Egypt signifies instruction in science, 1462. Predicated of the Lord, his instruction in knowledges from the Word by way of the external man, 14^9-7 1464. Sarai with him denotes truth with the celestial state in which he was, thus a priori truth, 1465, 1469. Abram' s fear on her ac- count when they approached Egypt, signifies the cupidity of acquiring truth alone perceived in the scientific mind, 1471—1474. Her passing for the sister of Abram, signifies the influx of celestial truth appeanng as intellectual truth, to the end that the celestial state may not be violated, 1475, 1476, 1477. Her being in Pharoah s house denotes its influx into sciences, and how it captivates the nnnd, 1483. Abram s being prospered by Pharoah on account of Sarai, denotes the multi- plication and accession of scientifics, 14841—1486. Pharoah and his house being plagued on her account denotes the destruction of such scientifics as are incapable of conjunction with the internal man, 1487— 1489. Their leaving Egypt, the idea of truth alone, or mere scien- tifics, altogether relinquished ; love and charity forming the celestial state in the scientifics which were accordant, and the others laUing away as dead scales, 1498—1502. Summary of the process, 149.0. Sarai having no children signifies that as yet the rational man was not formed, 1893. Her having an Egyptian handmaid, the affection of sciences in the external man, 1 895. The Egyptian given to Abram, the conjunction of the internal and external, 1909. Her conception, the life of the rational man commencing in the latter, 1910. Her con- tempt of Sarai, the low estimation in which the perception of truth is held by the rational when first born of scientifics, 1911,1916. Her hu- miliation and flight, the intestine conflict by which intellectual truth and the rational principle are divided, 1923. The angel admonishing her, the dictate with man that he ought to compel himself to speak, and to do according to internal truth, 1937. The promise that she should bear a child, and that his seed should be multiplied, the fruc- tification of the rational man as a consequence, 1938—1941, 1944. The birth of Ishmael her son, the rational man at length formed by the influx of the internal man into the affection of sciences, 1960. See Ishmael, Reason. , . . t^ . l 5. Joseph in Egypt, Joseph was made as a king in Egypt, because the divine truth proceeding from the Lord's divine human in heaven and the church was represented by him, 4669 ; specifically, the celestial EGY 147 spiritual man, or the good of truth present with the rational mind, 4963 and citations. The Ishmaelites and the Midianites, by whom he was drawn out of the pit and conveyed to Egypt, denote those who are in simple good and in the trutli of 'that good, 4747. Their being on the way to Egypt denotes instruction in scientifics, 4749. Their bring- ing Joseph there, consultation from scientifics concerning divine truth, 4760, 4787, 4788. His being sold by the Midianites, the alienation of divine truth in consequence of the fallacies which deceive the external man, ilL 4788. His being with Potiphar, the chamberlain of Pharoah and captain of the guard, divine truth in the interiors of the natural mind, or in scientifics, which are the primary agents of interpretation and doctrine, 4789, 4790, 4962, 4965, 4966, 4967. His being in the confidence of Potiphar, having the care of his household goods, &c., the initiation of the celestial spiritual man, or the truth of that degree mto natural good, 4973, and following passages. The importunity of Potiphar's wife, the natural man by means of its truth only seeking the conjunction of spiritual good, 4986, 4989. Joseph's garment left with her, truth in ultimates, which is all that the natural man can thus procure and acknowledge, 5008, 5019, 5028. Joseph's accusal and imprisonment, the false appearing as the true; and the bondage of temptation, which is suffered in the natural man by spiritual eood, 5011 5024, 5028, 5029, 5032, 5035, 5039. His finding favour with the chief of the prison, the mercy of the Lord and his grace imparted to those who are undergoing spiritual temptations, 5042, 5043. His having all the prisoners under his hand, truth ruling over all falses in this state, 5044, 5045 ; the keeper looking to nothing, its absolute power, 5049. Pharoah, after these events, casting the chief of the butlers and the chief of the bakers into prison, signifies the commencement of a new state with the natural man ; his aversion to the sensual things of the body both intellectual and voluntary, 5073, 5074, 5077, 5078, 5081. Joseph's ministering to them in prison signifies instruction as to these things, 5088. His interpreting their dreams, the influx of perception into the natural man, 5121, 5142, 5150, 5168. In respect to the butler, that the sensual things of the intellectual part would resume their function, be reduced to order, and minister to interiors, 5125, 0126, 5127. In respect to the baker, that the sensual things of the voluntary part should be rejected and damned, 5156, 5157. His pray- ing the butler to remember him, that all this was in order to the re- ception of charity and faith, 5129—5132: on account of its present alienation by evil, 5135. The butler not remembering him, that such conjunction could not yet take place, 5169, 5170. The advancement of Joseph in the kingdom of Pharoah signifies the exaltation of the celestial spiritual man over the natural ; thus, over ?oir® ^^io'i^*^^^ *^®^^» denoted by Egypt, 5191, 5312, 5316, 5324, 5325—5330, 5333, 5338. Pharoah's acknowledgment of the wisdom ot Joseph, the perception of the natural man that all truth and good fr. n ^^J""^^' ^306» 5307, 5310.

Tlie years of abundance which followed, the multiplication of truths, 5339. The corn gathered and stored up, such truths adjoined to good concealed in the interiors of man, 5342. The birth of Ephraim andManasseh, the natural man renewed by the conception of a "^w understanding and will from the influx of the celestial spiritual, 5348, 5351, 5354. Their being born in Egypt the land of his affliction, that such is the result of temptations endured in the natural, 5356. The famine which followed, and their coming from all parts to buy corn ot Joseph, the desolation of the natural man, and the conjunction of the celestial spiritual with scientifics therein, 5360, 5365, 5369, 53/6. Joseph's opening the store-houses and selling to them, denotes the pro- duction and communication of remains to that end, 5370. See He- mains. , A second conjunction which takes place in the natural man, namely, of the celestial spiritual man with the truths of faith therem, is de- noted by the father and the brethren of Joseph coming to Egypt, 5396. Jacob's sending his sons to buy corn there, denotes the external truth of the church seeking to sustain itself by scientifics, 5401, 5402, 540o, 5406, 5410, 5414. Thus, seeking to procure spiritual life, 5407. His not sending Benjamin with them signifies without a medium between the internal and the external, 5411—5413. Joseph's not acknow- ledoing them, that there could be no manifestation and conjunction ot the internal in this case, 5411, 5422. His brethren in Egypt not knowing him, that divine truth cannot be perceived in natural hght, not yet illustrated by celestial light, 5428. Joseph's treating them as spies, and demanding their brother, the perception that the truths of the church are confessed for selfish ends, 5447—5451, 5513. Their remorse concerning Joseph, that they were guilty of having alienated the internal by the non-reception of good, 5469, 5470. Reuben having remonstrated with them, that they had had perception from faith in the understanding, 5472—5476. Simeon being taken from them and bound before their eyes, that it is made clear to their apperception they were without faith in the will, 5482—5484. Corn put m their sacks, the infusion of good into their scientifics, 5487. Their money returned with it denotes from no ability of their own, 5488, 5496, 5499, 5530, 5532. Their going back and returning with Benjamin, the acquisition of the means of conjunction, which is intenor truth depending on the intuition of the internal in the external, 5574, 5600, 5631, compare 5411, 5413. Their returning again for their father Israel, the means of conjunction by good acquired, 5867. After this, the whole family of Israel in Egypt denotes the order in which spmtual good, with all the goods and truths of the church, occupy the natural man, conjoined with the celestial internal denoted by Joseph, 5994, 6168—6174, 6643. ^ . 6. The Israelites in Egypt. The death of Joseph denotes the end of the internal church thus instituted, 6593, 6645. His being em- balmed and put in a coffin in Egypt, that it was still within the ex- ternal, preserved from the contagion of evil, and darkened by scientifics, 6596. The king who knew not Joseph denotes the false principle dominating in scientifics when separated from internals, 6651, 66;)2. Their affliction of the Israelites, scientifics and falses opposed to the church and insurgent against it, 6639, 6659, 6660. The Israelites t EG Y 149 compelled to build treasure-cities in Egypt, doctrines from falsified truths in the natural man, 6661. Their continued multiplication, the increase and firm establishment of truths by temptation and infestation, 6663. The command of Pharoah that the midwives should destroy the male children only, the assault of the evil upon truths, and good protected from them, (iii77. The command that all the people should throw the sons into the river, the immersion of all truths as they ap- peared m falses, ^^9S. The birth of Moses, the divine truth appearing as the law, 6717—6720. His being concealed among the flags, that it was first among the falses of the natural man, 6726. His preservation by the daughter of Pharoah, its reception and consent on the part of that false religion, 6729, 6/30, 6740, 6741, 6743. His being grown and going out to his brethren, conjunction with the truths of the church, P^?\ ^^^ ^^^m^ their burdens, perception that they were infested by falses, 67o7. His slaying the Egyptian, the destruction of the alienated scientific principle, 6761. His flight from before Pharoah, the separation of the truth of the divine law from falses, 6772. His dwelling in Midian, its reception with those who are in simple good, ^^73, 6827. His return to rescue the Israelitish people from Pharoah, the liberation of the spiritual church by divine truth, 6825, 6864, 6865, 80 1 8. All the first-born of Egypt perishing in the night of the Exodus, the damjiation of all those who were in faith separate from charity, 7946 — 7952. The Israelites borrowing of them vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and raiment, the scientifics of truth and good lost by the evil within the church and accruing to the good, 7969, 7970, and citations. The 430 years of the sojourn of the children of Israel in Egypt are reckoned from Abram's sojourning there, not from the settle- ment of Jacob, 1502, 1847. It denotes the whole duration and state of temptation, 1847. 7. The Red Sea [mare suph\ The waters of the Red Sea have a similar signification to the waters of the deluge ; the Egyptians who were drowned representing the evil; and the Israelites who passed over m safety, the regenerate, 842. The destruction of the Egyptians in the I^d Sea represented the end of the vastated church, 6589. The Red Sea denotes the hell of those who are in faith separate from cha- nty, and in evils of life, thus damnation, 8099, 8200, 8265. This hell IS widely extended beneath the hell of adulterers, and separated from It by waters as of a sea ; the relative situation of the PhiUstines, of the desert, &c., described, 8099, 8137. They who are liberated from infestations are brought through the midst of this hell, surrounded by a column of angels with whom the Lord is present, as represented in the passage of the Israelites, 8099. The passage of the Israelites and destruction of Pharoah and his host fully explained and illustrated, 8191—8241. The Red Sea, as the boundary of the land of Egypt, denotes sensual and scientific truths, 9340. From the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, denotes from scientific truths to the interior truths of faith, 9340. The casting of the locusts into the Red Sea denotes the rejection of falses to hell, 7704. 8. The Nile, The river of Egypt signifies the extension and ter- mination of the spiritual things of faith, 1866. The Euphrates, the Jordan, the Nile, and the sea, were the last boundaries of the land of Lanaan, and represent the ultimatcs of the Lord's kingdom ; the Nile, 150 ELE ilij liii 1:1 t sensual things subject to the intellectual part, thus, scienti6cs, 5196. In the opposite sense, it denotes the contrary of intelligence, thus, what is false, 6693, namely, false scientifics, 6975. The shore of the Nile denotes the last mental plane or terminus, 5196, 5197, 5205, 6726, 6731, 7308. The seed of Sihor, the harvest of the Nile, sig- nifies good without the church, derived from scientific truths, 9295. In the opposite sense, Egypt and the waters of Sihor, denote scien- tifics which pervert, 5113, 120; or falses induced by scientifics per- versely applied, 9341. [The Hebrew Tar, the general designation of a large river, is translated the Nile in the passage, 9295, by the author; but the English Bible does not specify what river is meant. The word is usually understood according to the context.] Pharoah's dream of the fat and lean kine ascending from the river, denotes the perception of truths and falses, which rise together in the natural mind, 5195—5202, 5205, 5259. Pharoah's appeal to Joseph for the interpretation, denotes the thought of the celestial-spiritual, from the natural mind as its plane of reflection, 5259. Moses con- cealed in the flags by the brink of the river, denotes those who are initiated into truth at first among falses, 6726. The daughter of Pharoah washing in the river, denotes worship from falses, 6730. Her maidens attending her, denotes the ministration of that false religion, 6731. Moses going to the river's brink to meet Pharoah, denotes influx discovering the fallacies and falses of those that infest, 7307, 7308. The waters of the river, the streams, and the ponds of Egypt, all turned to blood, denotes total falsification of truths and doctrinals, and scientifics subservient to truth, 7317, 7323—7325, 7332. The fish of the river dying, denotes the extinction of truth by its falsifica- tion, ill. 7318, 7333. The water of the river stinking, and the Egyp- tians unable to drink of it, denotes aversion to truth and unwillingness to be instructed, 7319, 7320, 7334, 7344. The waters bringing forth frogs, denotes reasonings from mere falses springing up, the whole mind and all its delights being occupied by them ill, and ah. 7351 — 7357. Pharoah's going to the water, denotes the procedure of the thought of those who are in evil to falses, 7437, 7307. EIGHT, Eighteen, Eighty, &c. See Numbers. EJECT, to [ejicere]. See to Expel. EL, Eloah, Eloim, El-Elohe, &c. See Name. ELAM, one of the sons of Shem, denotes faith grounded in cha- rity, 1228. See Shem, and observe that Chedorlaomer was king of Elam, 1667, 1685. EL-BETHEL. See Bethel. ELDAAH. See Midian. ELDER [senior]. See Old. ELDER, the [major natu], denotes good, the younger truth ; or the affection of good and the affection of truth, 3296, 3494. When predicated of truth, the elder denotes what is external, because it is first learnt ; the younger, what is internal, because it is learnt after- wards, 3819. As to the signification of old age, &c., see Old. ELEAZAR and ITHAMAR. See Nadab. ELECT, Election. See Chosen. ELEVATED, to be [elevari]. See Elevation. ELEVATION, is the effect of charity, 361—363. The natural ELE 151 mind is said to be elevated when spiritual things are appropriated, 3171, 7607. Man is said to be elevated when he is perfected as to spiritual and celestial things, that is, as to the truth of faith, and the good of love and charity, 3334. In like manner, the Lord as to the natural man when he made it divine, 3761. Elevation denotes a nearer accession to the divine ; in the case of man to what is celestial, 4103. ' Truths and their affections are elevated with man when he prefers the things of eternal life and the Lord's kingdom to those of the body and the world, 4104, ill. 4353. Elevation signifies emergence from a state of obscurity into clearness, or from ignorance into a state of intelligence, 4881. To be elevated towards interiors is to think interiorly, by draw- ing nearer to the influx of truth and good from the Lord ; in this case, scientifics serve for the ultimate plane of intuition, 6007; compare 5089, 7442; from experience, 6210, 6309, 6315, 6954. The only means of ascending from exteriors to interiors, and thus thinking as a spirit or an angel, is by regeneration, 6454, 6954, 7645. When man is ele- vated interiorly the sensual part is also elevated, but its lumen is ren- dered obscure by the brightness of the light of heaven, 6954, 7442 ; compare 9406. No one can look above himself and the world except by elevation from him who is above, 7607, 7816, 10,156, 10,229. The Lord elevates all who are in faith and love to him, 9127, 9405. He is said to be elevated above the sensual or led away from it, and thus to think interiorly, who explores and considers his sensual desires and thoughts ; this has place only with those who are in the good of charity and faith, 9730, 6309, 6312. Elevation is effected by withdrawal from sensual and scientific things, into a state of interior thought and affec- tion, thus interiorly into heaven, 6183, 6844. Unless man be thus removed from sensual things, the divine cannot flow in, 6845; ill. 7645. Such elevation towards interiors is a departure from the infestation of falses towards the truths and goods of faith, 6897, 7442, 7443. It is not the sensual part, but the thought of the mind proximate thereto which is elevated, 7442, and citations at the end. It can only take place according to the degree of good in which man is, 8945 ; compare 3101. In proportion as man is thus elevated he becomes truly rational, that is, truly a man, 3175. Such elevation is to be understood by the initiation and introduction of truth into good, 3175. It is an actual elevation of such truths out of the natural mind as concord with good in the rational, 3098, 3101, 3102, 3182, 3190; or from the truths of the exterior natural to the good of the interior, 5817. The internal elevates the natural to itself by continual generations, so that man is perfected by degrees, and continually elevated towards interiors by rege- neration, 6239. The process consists in the insinuation of spiritual life by the Lord through the internal man, 6183, 6262, 9227; hence influx and illustration, 10,330; see Influx. The interiors are actually elevated by the Lord when man is in the good of faith and charity; thus man is enabled to look upwards who otherwise would only look downwards to self and the world, 6952—6954, 10,330; compare 7814 — 7821. By such perpetual elevation and conversion towards himself, the Lord protects both the angels of heaven and the men of the church, 9517. Good with man is elevated by means of the truths of faith, 9514. To be led from the natural man and its scientifics, and elevated into the intelligence and wisdom of the spiritual, is to be led from hell, 152 ELI EMB 153 Hi I !■' I and elevated in thought and in will to heaven, 10,156, 10,229. Varia- tions of state are effected by elevations towards interiors and demersion into exteriors, how signified by evening and morning, 10,134. Still there is a continual tendency and elevation upwards towards heaven by those who suffer themselves to be regenerated, 6611; compare 6315. In general, to be elevated signifies to ascend from inferior to superior states, 3084; thus into the light of heaven, 3171,3190, 4104, 9407, 10,156. It is denoted by arising, 4092, 4103, 4881; by the ascent of steps, 8945; by flying with wings as a cherub, 9514; by lifting the feet, 3761; by lifting the hand, 1745; by the lifting up of the coun- tenance, 363, 4796, 5585; and by speaking, as the effect of influx, 6262. Elevation into heaven is also signified by the promise of the land of Canaan to the Israelites, 7196, 7200, 721 1, 8325. They were not themselves elevated into heaven, because the heavenly sphere was not received by them; but there was communication with the heaven without them by means of their holy externals, 4311, 8588. Such as remained in the lower earth were elevated to heaven by the Lord's advent, 7207. Elevation from sensual things into a milder and more interior light was experimentally known to the ancients, 6313. When elevated into interior light man thinks justly and equitably, and in light still more interior, from spiritual good and truth, 6315. lie who is in the good of life is elevated from one lumen to another, and into interior lumen the instant he begins to think any evil, for angels are near him, 6315. The light into which man is thus elevated is the universal sphere of divine truth proceeding from the Lord, which not only appears as Hght to the eye, but illuminates the whole mind, ill. 9407. ELIAS OR Elijah. Moses and Elias denote all the books of the Old Testament ; the former, all the historical portion, the latter, the prophetical, 2606, and Preface to Gen. xviii. The chariot of fire and horses of fire which carried Elias to heaven signify the doctrine of love and charity, and the doctrine of faith, the latter being the same as the understanding of the Word according to the internal sense, 2762. In a general sense, Elias and Elisha represent the Lord as to the Word, 2762, 3301, 3540, 4763, 6752, 9954. Elisha's rending his clothes when Elias ascended to heaven signifies grief on account of divine truth disappearing, 4763. The mantle of Elias falling upon him signifies that he continued the representation, 4763. Elias with the widow of Sarepta signifies the Word communicated to those who are in the desire of truth and in charity, 4844. Elisha' s being called baldhead signifies the Word ignominiously reputed to be deficient of an external sense, that is, of a sense adequate to the understanding of man, 5247. Elisha with the sons of the prophets represents the Word and doctrines there- from ; death in the pottage, the good of the Jewish rituals falsified ; its cure by Elisha, the means of restoration by truth from the Word, 8408. Elisha and the men of Jericho, his healing the waters, &c., also signify the emendation of the church and of life, the particulars ex, 9325. Elisha in Dothan signifies the Lord as the Word within the doctrinals of good and of truth derived therefrom, the instruction of those who are subject to falses, &c., the particulars also ex.^ 4720. The representation of the Lord as the Word, or divine truth in the earth, by Elias and by John the Baptist, was nearly the same, their clothing, &c., compared, 5620, 7643, 9372, 9828. See John. How the spirits of the planet Jupiter are carried away into heaven by bright horses as of fire, like Elias, 8029, 2762. ELIEZER of Damascus, the steward of Abram's house, signifies the external church, 1796. Eliezer, the son of Moses and Zipporah, signifies the good of truth with those who are within the church, 8651. ELIJAH. See Elias. ELIM, denotes a state of illustration and affection; thus consola- tion after temptations, 8367, 8397. It derives this signification from the fountains and palms that were there, 8399. ELISHA, THE Prophet [^Elisceus], See Elias. ELISHAH [Elischah]. The sons of Javan, Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim, signify so many species of ritual or externsd worship, 1 156 — 1158 ; according to the genius, opinion and probity of those with whom they severally prevailed, 1157, 1159. Why called islands, 1158. The isles of Kittim or Chittim denotes the Gentiles who are in simple good, and thence in natural truth, 3268. See Tar- shish, Javan. ELM [ulmus]. The tree so called in the authorized version (Hosea iv. 13) is translated by the author as signifying the male oak, robor, 2466. See Oak. ELOQUENCE. The sphere of those who study eloquence as an end, thereby drawing universal admiration to themselves, is perceived as an odour of burnt bread, 1514. The art of verbal criticism is such that the ideas of those who have studiously applied it to the Word, without much solicitude about the sense, appear like closed lines, or a texture of lines, 602 1. The affectation of eloquence and of erudition brings things into a shade, substituting mere words for them, &c., 6924. See Learned. Eloquent words signify the joy of the mind, 6414. ELPARAN. See Paran. EMBALM, to [condire\y bodies after death, signifies a means of preservation from the contagion of evil, 6503, 6504, 6505. The em- balming of Israel denotes the effect of preserving spiritual good ; the forty days of the process, a state of preparation or temptations by which falses and evils are removed, 6504 — 6506. When predicated of the church, embalming denotes its preservation internally, thus with the angels, nothing but the external remaining with man, 6595; com- pare 10,252. EMBITTER, to [exacerbarejy or sorely vex another, denotes resist- ance by falses, 6420. When predicated of the Lord, it denotes aver- sion from him by reason of the falses of evil, 9308. EMBLEMS [emblemata]. The ceremonies observed at coronations, &c., are at this day only received as emblematic, but they correspond to sacred things, 4581, 4967. In the emblems of the oriental books, hieroglyphics, &c., many things which are correspondences are still extant, but the knowledge of them has perished, 9011. See Compa- rison, Correspondence. EMBRACE, to [amplexi]. See to Kiss. EMBRYO. The whole interior man or spirit is derived from the father; the whole exterior man, or body, from the mother, 1815. The soul is implanted by the father, and begins to clothe itself with corpus- cular forms in the ovulum, which it subsequently perfects in the womb, of the mother, 1815, ill, by the conception of good in the rational 154 END END 155 part, 3570. All that the parents contract from actual use and habit, thus all that they are imbued with from actual life, so that it becomes familiar and natural to them, is derived as hereditary stock into their offspring, ilL 3469. See Evil. The embryo, or the child so long as it remains in the womb, is in the kingdom of the heart, and has no corporeal sensation or voluntary action, 3887, 4931. In the embryo, the action of the liver precedes that of the heart, for it receives the blood from the womb of the mother and is the medium by which it finds access to the heart, 5183. The office of the renal capsules ex- plained, 5391. With what unerring accuracy the lineaments of the embryo are projected, every successive formation for the sake of that which is to follow, and with a view to the reception of heaven by the adult man, 6491. The nutritious liquor received by the embryo by means of the placenta and the umbilical cord from the womb of the mother, corresponds to the good of innocence, 10,031.

EMERODS [hcemorroidea], and other kinds of ulcers signify so many varieties of falses from evil, 7524. The emerods with which the Philistines were smitten signify the unclean loves of the natural man ; the golden emerods the same loves purified and made good ; Treatise on Divine Providence^ 326. EMPIRE. See Government. EMISSARY SPIRITS [mhjecta\ See Subjects. EMULATION [cemulatio]. See Envy. ENAKIM. See Nephilim. ENCAMP, to [castr anient art]. See Camp. ENCHANTMENTS [incantationes]. See Magic. END, to \^absolvere\ or leave off speaking, signifies the close of that state of perception, 2097, 2287. To bring any action to an end involves the signification both of what precedes and what follows, hence it signifies what is successive, 3093. The camels leaving off to drink signifies the end of illustration in common scientifics, thus acknowledg- ment, 3102. To end admonishing denotes the effect of what is insinu- ated, 6462. To end a task, the doing what is enjoined, 7138. Jehovah's ceasing to speak with Moses, and giving him tne covenant of the deca- logue, signifies conjunction by means of the Word after the institution of the church, 10,375; compare 10,700 and context. END or Termination Q/?ww]. See Extremity. As to the end or consummation of the church, &c., see Church (5), Consumma- tion, Vastation, Evening. END [Jinis], 1. As characteristic of man. The end regarded by man, or his life's love, rules all that he thinks, and all that he does ; hence to do signifies thought and intention, thus the end itself, 1317, 6937. To regard a thing as an end is to love it above all others ; and the thing so loved reigns universally, and constitutes the interior or spiritual life of man, 5949; ill. 6571, 6936, 6937, 8995. Hence all things of the will and the thought, and the quality of every action, depends on the end as the first and ruling principle, 6571, 6934 — 6938. By the Lord and the angels nothing is regarded in man but ends and uses, 1317, 1645. The end cannot be changed or hindered from coming into effect except by change of state, 1318; compare 5660. The qua- lity of the whole man, the very love of his life, and the true nature of his charity and his works, can only be known from the end which pre- vails with him, 1317, 1568, 1571, 3776, 3796, 3816, 4054, 6934— 6938. It is the end that constitutes the spiritual life of man, thus the man himself, and which distinguishes one from another as to internal form, 3425, 3796, 6571, 8995, 10,284. The life of the internal man flows into all the affections of the natural man, and is varied therein, or exists in different forms according to the ends which constitute such affections, 1909. If the end or intention is good, the life itself is good, though it may appear otherwise externally; in like manner if it is evil, 4839. Hence no one is punished for an evil act if it be performed from a truly good end, 1936, 2364, 4839. It is the end that makes man happy or unhappy in the other life, because it is the inmost of all causes and effects, 3562. All things that are beneath the end, or inter- mediate between the end and the effect, are formed by it, 3562. In such formation good ends organize according to the form of heaven, evil ends according to the form of hell ; thus ends determine all things and bring them into order, 4104. Good ends evince that man is in heaven, evil ends, that he is in hell; hence, by attending to the ends of his life every one may know whether he is regenerating, 3570, 3796. With the unregenerate there is no other end but self and the world ; all spiritual things being made su1)servient thereto by the natural man, 5025, 10,284. The whole difference between the unregenerate and the regenerate, or the old man and the new, is a difference of ends, which are natural in the one case and spiritual in the other, and by which the Lord arranges all things, 4063, 4104; compare 3165. The end of regeneration is that the natural and the spiritual, or the external and the internal, may be united, 4353. Man can have no freedom except in the ends or loves which he cherishes, for these constitute his whole will and life, 5786, 5660. Beasts also are ruled by their own ends, which are natural ; men, therefore, who have only natural ends have little of life, nor do they know what life is, 3646, 3647. The difference between natural or external ends and internal, and in what manner they ascend, illustrated by the various affections from which corporeal, spiritual, and celestial food may be taken, 4459. Things essentid ought to be regarded as ends, not things instrumental, for when this is the case the former are obliterated, ill. 5948. Even the loves of self and the world are good, if they be regarded as means of serving the Lord and the neighbour, and not as ends, 7819, 7820, 8995. In like manner, the end of all science, intelligence, and wisdom consists in the life, and they are either good or evil according as the life or real end in their possession is good or evil, 10,331. 2. As respects the Word. Those who have faith in the Word, and receive its divine instruction in simplicity, are in the end itself for which all doctrine and knowledge concerning the Scriptures are given ; hence they have no need of such knowledges, 2094, 2718. The instruc- tion afforded by the Word is proportionate to the end and affection of growing wise, 3436. To those whose ruling end is the love of reputa- tion and self-aggrandizement by such knowledges the Word is a sealed I f 156 END ENG 157 li book, 3769; because worldly and corporeal ends bring notbing but darkness over the mind, 8993. The end for which the Word is given is that men in the Word and angels in heaven may be conjomed by means of its internal and external senses, 10,687. Ends and uses, or affections derived from the world rather than ideas, are represented even in the speech of the angels, 1645, 2157. See Speech. As to the end of all truth and good in respect to their reciprocal conjunction, 3679. See Conjunction. . 3. As operative. The end of the regenerate, or his particular good, commences in the rational part like the human soul in the ovulum of the mother, and forms to itself a body in the natural, as in its womb, 3570. It is the influx of the Hfe or end of the will that forms the intellectual part or understanding of man, and makes the life of thought, 3619. Hence, in the idea of spirits, thought is predicated of natural good, when good is the eud regarded ; while it is viewed by man as being in natural good, 3679. A single end or principle may act vari- ously in ultimates according to the form there ; thus, many may be associated together in one thought or end, though they speak variously, 5189; compare 4051. All things in ultimates are disposed in order by the end, and they are so disposed before intermediates, 3565. If man only acknowledge the Lord as his first and last end, the descent of the divine to the ultimates of nature, and ascent from the ultimates of nature to the divine, would be effected through him, 3702. He is so constituted as to be capable of being in the sphere of divine ends and uses, 3645, 3646. The human brain, like heaven, to which it corre- sponds in its form, is in that sphere, 4041, 4054. The ends of all things that exist in nature are in the interior heaven, 5711. The ends of all things in their first origin coalesce in the divine good of the divine love, thus in the Lord himself, who is the First and the Last, 6044. Nothing was ever created except to some end, and the end is all in all in created things, 6044, 9337. The whole universe, with its myriads of stars and earths, is only a means to one end, and that end is a heaven of human beings, thus the Lord's kingdom, 6698, 9441. To this end, the whole aim of the divine love and mercy is the fehcity of the good, and the restraint and emendation of the unrighteous, 8700. By its operation as one end, all things are kept in subordination and consociation, thus in connection and form, 9828. End, cause, and effect are related to one another as the threefold state of man, the internal man, the middle or rational part, and the external, and as the three heavens, &c., 978, 9825, 10,076. It is the first end which produces the cause or middle end, and, by means of the cause, the effect or ultimate end, 4104. The cause is the end formed, the effect is the cause formed, 4666; or the cause appearing in external form, 10,076. The end is all in the cause and the effect, and were it not continually in them the effect would be dissipated, 3562, 5711. When end, cause, and effect are in perfect correspondence, the end itself acts the part of both, being all in all in them, otherwise it is changed and varied in the cause, and still more in the effect, 5131. Their coexistence and duration within one another illustrated by love to the Lord, charity towards the neighbour, and good works, 5608. The effect is the complement in which the interior or prior efficients naturally close together and rest, 9824. These three, end, cause, and i effect, are everywhere necessary in order that any perfect thing may exist, 9825. The operation of the end is like that of the human soul, which is the will or life's love ; the proximate cause by which it pro- duces the effect resembles the human understanding ; the effect itself is like the representation of what is willed and thought in the human body, 10,076. Ends also are represented by the principles from which the fibres proceed, such as they are in the brain ; the thoughts thence derived by the fibres, and the acts by nerves, 5189 at the end. ENEMY, Foe, or Adversary [hosHsy inimicus]. Enemies de- note all the abuses, natural and rational, by which worship is perverted, 2162. Good can never be insinuated into falses, nor evil into truths, for instead of correspondence, which is the cause of conjunction, there is nothing but enmity between them, 2269. Enemies are evils and falses, or those who are evil, as genii and infernal spirits, 2851, 6365, 6657, 8282, 9954. The promise given to Abraham, that his seed should inherit the gate of his enemies, denotes that charity and faith shall be in the place of what was evil and false, ill. and sh. 2851. See Gate. What enmity and hatred towards the whole human race is cherished by vast numbers who come into the other life from the Chris- tian world, by such also as were in ancient times of the most celestial genius, 4327. They who are out of the church are called foes, haters, enemies, from spiritual disagreement, but only in the sense of the letter, for they are not treated as enemies by the angels, but instructed, 9255, 9256. The hatred the Jews bore towards them was owing to their own hereditary nature, 9259. Foes or adversaries denote the falses of evil, 9314, 9330. To act as an adversary or a foe, when predicated of the Lord, is to avert the falses derived from evil, 9313. Enemies and insurgents denote evils, and falses derived from evils, for these are the spiritual foes which rise up against man, sh. 10,481. As to the appa- rent wrath and hostility of the Lord towards the evil, 8282, 8875. As to the law of retahation and the Christian duty of loving our enemies, 8223, 9174. As to the hostility against truth and good signified by the words of Zipporah, 7047. As to certain spirits who delight in exciting hostilities and divisions amongst others, in order to rule them, 5718; and of others who are the enemies of evil spirits, 5189. See War, Temptation. ENGRAVING, Graven Thing, to Engrave {sculptural sculp- tile, sculpere]. A thing graven denotes somewhat false conceived and excluded from the proprium, 585. The fairness of the truth of faith only is like the beauty of a painted or sculptured face, but the fairness of the affection of truth derived from good is like a living face animated by celestial love, 5199; compare 9424 at the end. A graven image denotes what is not from the Lord, but from man's intellectual pro- prium; a molten image what is from his will proprium, the love and worship of which are forbidden by the second commandment, ill. and sh. 8869, 10,406. Those who fashion doctrines from their own intelli- gence, which they are desirous should be received as divine truths, are denoted by the makers of graven images, 8869, 9424, 9852; compare 8932, 2466. Molten and sculptured images, graven things, &c., denote such things as are excluded and fashioned from man's own intelligence, which are in themselves dead, though they are adored as living, 8941, 9424. Writing and engraving upon tablets or stones denotes the being 158 ENT impressed upon the life and memory, and thus rendered permament, ill. by the commandments written upon two tables of stone, 9416. And by the names engraved on the two onyx stones, 9841, 9842, 9846, 9931. The covering of the graven images of silver, and the clothing of the molten images of gold, denote the scientifics of what is false and evil, which are acknowledged and worshipped for truths and goods, 9424. An image of molten silver denotes good falsified, 3574; see in particular 8932. The engraving of a seal denotes the celestial order of truths as the type-form, according to which all the affections which are of love and all the thoughts which are of faith necessarily flow, 9846, 9877. Thus it denotes the celestial sphere, 9931. The forma- tion of falses, so that they cohere together and appear like truths, is signified by what is graven ; their conjunction so as to favour external loves, and make evil appear like good, by what is molten, 10,406. See above, 8869. The carving of stones denotes the representation of all things of faith or truth ; the carving of wood, the representation of good, 10,333, 10,334; compare 9846. See Idolatry. ENLARGE, to. See to Dilate. EN-MISHPAT [En Mischpatk]. See Kadesh. ENOCH [Chanoch\ the alleged son of Cain, signifies a heresy derived from that principal schism, 331, 399, 400. The name itself denoting instruction — understood as begun by that heresy, 401. The city called by his name denotes that heretical principle and doctrine, 402. The sons of Enoch, — Irad, Mebujael, and Methusael, signify other derived heresies, 404 ; and the son of Methusael, vastation, 406. See Lamech. Enoch, the alleged son of Jared, was a church whose doctrines were framed from the things revealed and perceived in the most ancient church, 464. It was the seventh distinct church in that line, 463, 513. It took its rise with those who formed doctrines, whence good and truth might be known, from the perceptions of the most ancient church, and accordingly the name itself signifies to instruct, 519. This church was numerically small, and its doctrine was preserved for the use of posterity, 520— -522, 5136. It was adopted in the Noatic church 736. It was collected and framed when communication with angels be- gan to cease, 2896. The quality of the human mind at that time, 522. ENDS [EnoscK]. Adam and Enos in the original both signify man ; Adam, the man of the celestial church, Enos, the man of the spiritual church, 7120. See Lamech. As to Enos in the line of Adam, who denotes a church similar to the most ancient, see Seth. ENSNARED, to he [illaqueart]. See Snare. ENTANGLED. See Entwisting. ENTHUSIASM [enthusiasmus] . The visions of enthusiastic spirits are beheved by themselves to be genuine, on account of the false per- suasions and principles they had contracted while they were living in the world, 1968, compare 6865. ENTIRE [integer] . To be just is predicated of the good of charity, to be whole or perfect of the truth of charity, 610, ill. and sh. 612, 331 1 . Wholeness or integrity is also predicated of the good done from truth, ill. and sh. 1994. To be entire denotes without blemish, un- spotted, immaculate, 7837. See Integrity. ENTRANCE, Enter-in, to [introitus, intrare']. To enter-in sig- EN V 159 nifies compiunication, because one enters to another spiritually when he communicates his thought, 6901. Nothing can be retained in the memory, much less enter into the thought, except by some idea, how- soever formed, 2249, 2831, 5510. To come or enter-in to any one denotes conjunction, 4868. Also presence or appearance, 7498, 7631. To enter into a chamber or a house denotes to think or intend interiorly, thus, to have mental communication, 5694, 5776. Those who enter the house of another in the other life actually communicate their thoughts with all there ; those who are together, therefore, in one house are of one mind or opinion ; still more those who are together in one apartment, 9213, compare 9927. To enter-in and go out denotes the whole state of the life, thus, from beginning to end, according to the subject treated of, ill. and sh. 9927, 10,240. See ^ Come, ^oGo, ^o Journey. En- trance into the holy place, or entering-in before Jehovah to speak with him, denotes worship, 9903, 9907, 9963 ; or the whole state of good and truth involved in worship, 9927, 10,242; or influx from the Lord through the internal man into the external, 10,702. The entrance of the Lord into man by the way of the internal, and what is transacted there, transcends all human perception, 1940, compare 1999. The entrance or intromission of spirits into heaven consists in their reception by angelic societies, their state of life being conformable, &c., 2130 — 2132, 6571, 8988. Those enter heaven and are conjoined to the Lord in whom the heavenly marriage of good and truth has taken place, 10,360, 10,367. Man enters into the heavenly marriage by the con- junction of good and truth in the rational, which is the commencement of what is truly human, 3161. To enter from truths or the doctrines of faith into rational ideas and arguments is according to order, but not the contrary, 2588. The truths of the internal man, which are spiri- tual or intellectual ideas, can only come to manifest perception by en- tering the natural memory, 10,237. See above 2249, and the article Scientifics. Whatever once enters into man, more especially if it be received from affection remains with him for ever, 7398. ENTWISTING, Perplexed [implexum perplexuni]. How im- mensely the truth of good is multiplied when man passes into the other life ; compared with the growth of a seed which has been relieved of the dense and perplexed obstructions that had prevented it from springing up, 1941. What is perplexed or twisted together, as the vegetation of a forest, denotes the scientifics which are mingled in the exterior memory, sh. 2831, 4156, 9011. Entwisted work denotes the scien- tifics of the natural memory ; the same of gold, divine truth therein, 3703, or truths in which are good, 5954. To be entangled in the land denotes confusion as to the things of the church, 8133. Baldness in- stead of entwisted work (* well-set hair') denotes the deprivation of exterior truth, 10,199. ENUNTIATIONS, the Book of. See Word. ENVY [invidid]. With how much envy evil spirits are afl^ected and tormented, when they see the blessedness of the angels, and what degrees and varieties of envy exist, 1974. To envy denotes not to take or comprehend, 3410. In the original Hebrew, to envy signifies likewise to emulate and to chide, and because all these are the eflfect of hatred it denotes aversion, 4702. Envy is among the causes of disease, 5712. 160 EQU E S A 161 EPHAH, one of the sons of Midian. See Midian. EPHAH, the Hebrew measure. See Measure. EPHER. See Midian. EPHOD [ephodum]. The ephod signifies the truth of faith covering the good of love, 9477. The ephod signifies the covering of external celestial things, breast-plate the covering of internal celestial things, 9477. The ephod signifies divine truth in the spiritual kingdom, in the external form, into which interior things close, 9824, 989 1 . The ephod being the outmost of the three garments, is more holy than the others, and denotes priestly raiment in general, 9824. The girdle of the ephod signifies the external bond of the spiritual kingdom, 9837. The ephod, like the breast-plate signifies heaven in ultimates ; but the ephod signifies the spiritual heaven, and the breast-plate all the heavens in one complex, 9873. The ephod with the robe or cloak denotes the spiritual kingdom, and the waistcoat, because separated from them b^ the girdle, denotes what is spiritual and celestial, the same as is signi- fied by the vail in the tent, and by the human neck, ill, 10,005. EPHRAIM. See Tribes. EPHRATH, OR Ephrata, the ancient name of Bethlehem, sig- nifies the same thing in a prior state, namely, the middle term between the internal of the natural man and the external of the rational, ill, 4.585. This middle state is called the spiritual of the celestial, because the spiritual man is from the natural, and the celestial man from the rational, 4585. Ephrath from the most ancient times signified the spiritual of the celestial, or the medium between the internal and ex- ternal man ; hence, Benjamin was born there, David was born and anointed king of Israel there, and the Lord was born there, 4594. In the prior state signified by Ephrata, man is affected with truth for the sake of doctrine or of becoming intelligent ; in the new state signified by Bethlehem, he is affected with truth for the sake of wisdom or life, 6245 — 6247. We have heard of him in Ephratah, predicated of the Lord, signifies his revelation in the spiritual celestial sense of the Word, 9406. It is predicated of him because he was born there, 9485, 9594. EPHRON, and the sons of Hetli, denote those who are capable of receiving the goods and truths of faith, 2901, 2933, 2940, 2969, 6.544 — 6551. Ephron is called the Hittite, in order to represent the spiritual church, as the head and prince, 2941. The discourse of Abraham with Ephron signifies influx and the state of reception, 2949 — 2957. The field of Ephron signifies the church, or the good of faith which forms it, 2968—2971, 6454. See Heth. EQUILIBRIUM. Such is the formation, disposition, and con- junction of all things, celestial, spiritual, and natural, that each is in its own freedom, and yet the equilibrium of the whole is continually preserved, 689. It is by the action of this equilibrium in the other life that evils run into their own punishment, 696, 967, 1857. The Christian world is in such disorder and wickedness that the equilibrium begins to incline on the side of evil, it is about to be restored therefore by the rejection of those who are within the church, and the reception of those who are without, 2122. How societies are then dissolved, 2129. A common equilibrium is preserved between the aura of heaven and the atmosphere of hell, 3643. Man is kept in equilibrium between what is evil and good, and between what is true and false, hence his liberty, 5982, 6477. To this end, the societies of heaven and hell are preserved in a most distinct order, 6864. It is effected by the medium of influx, 6308, 8209. See Liberty. ER. See Tribes (Judah), ERECH. See Nimrod. ERECT [erectus.'] To go erect, and look upwards or forwards, is predicated of the celestial man, 248. All who are in heaven and in hell appear erect on their feet, but such is not their real position, 3641. To stand erect and rigid is a quality of truth, to bend and soften of good, 7068. He who regards charity and faith as of first importance is an erect or upright man, and appears so in the other life, his head being in heaven, 9181. The inhabitants of Jupiter do not go erect, &c., 8371—8374. ERNESTI. Communication by an intermediate spirit given with him, and concerning the ideas he entertained of spiritual things, 3749. ERR, to \errare]. See Error. ERROR. Evil signifies disjunction and aversion ; error, if there be sin in it, the same thing in a less degree, thus what is adverse, 5625. Those who are in faith are prone to discover the errors of others, those who are in charity either do not see them or try to excuse them, 1079 — 1088. What errors they at first fall into who are reformed, and the uses to which their errors are subsequently rendered conducive, 2679, 2946. To err or stray in the desert of Beersheba, signifies a wan- dering in the doctrinals of faith, 2679. To stray in the field, a wan- dering or a falling away from the common truths of the church, ill, 47 \7, See to Wander. ESAU: — 1. Person and signification, Esau, or Edom, in the genuine sense, represents the Lord as to his human essence, 1675; spe- cifically, as to the divine good of the divine natural, 3302. The con- ception and birth of the divine natural as to good is represented by Esau ; as to truth by Jacob, 3232. Their being the sons of Isaac and Rebecca denotes their origin from the divine rational, by means of divine truth as a mother, 3288, 3297, 3306. Their being called two nations and two peoples, that such good and truth are both interior and exte- rior, 3293, 3294. Their being twins, that such good and truth are conceived and born together, 3299. The greater serving the less, that the truth for a season would be preferred over good, 3296. Esau born first, that good in its essence is primary, 3300. His being red and hairy in person, the good of life and its production to externals, thus to its investiture, which is the truth of good, 3300, 3301, 3526, 3527. Jacob, his brother, appearing next, denotes the truth and its fraternal connection with good, 3303. His hand taking hold of the heel of Esau, that their being separated in consequence of hereditary evil does not hinder the power of truth adhering to good in externals, 3304. See Evil (2). Esau in particular denotes natural good, to which doctrinals of truth are not yet adjoined ; also the good of life from rational influx; Edom, natural good, to which are adjoined doc- trinals of truth, sh, 3322, 4642. In the opposite sense, Esau denotes the evd of self-love before falses are adjoined; Edom, the same with falses adjoined thereto ; and both names in common, such as despise M 162 E S A E S A 1G3 tii and reject truths, from the evil of self-love, sh. 3322, 5135, 8311 — 8314. Man is in the state signified by Esau, in the genuine sense, when he no longer mistakes truths for good, and substitutes knowledge for life, but when he does good from the affection of good, that is, when he is regenerate, 3G03. Esau being the greater son denotes that the affection of natural good or the good of life which he represents is greater than the doctrine of truth, 3494. Such good is not spiritual until it is made so by regen- eration, but is the same as the good of infancy, 3504. It is not natural good, but the affection of rational good in the natural, 3508 ; more particularly, ill. 3509. It is good producing truth, called the truth of good ; as its inverse, which Jacob denotes, is good derived from truth, 3669, 3677. In general terms, the good denoted by Esau is celestial good in the natural man, 4239. In respect to the Lord, thus in the supreme sense, it is the good, or the very proprium, which the Lord had from the Father ; the difference between natural good, and good in the natural, ex. 3518, 4641. Esau first represented the natural good of the Lord's infancy, which was divine from the father, but human from the mother ; after^vards the divine good of the divine natural ; analogically as Jacob represented the divine truth, 3599, 4234, 4641, and citations. It is to be noted that Jacob and Esau are considered as brethren in this repre- sentation but that they are only one potency receptive of the actual good and truth which are treated of afterwards, 3599. Also, that Jacob's putting on the person of Esau was for the sake of the primogeniture and blessing of Isaac, and in order that the representation of the Lord de- rived from Abraham and Isaac might fall into one person, 3659. See Jacob. 2. As to the enmity between him and Jacob. The boys growing, signifies the first state of the progress of good and truth to conjunction, 3308. Esau a cunning hunter, signifies the good of life supported by sensuals and scientifics, 3309. Isaac's love for him, the preference (jf the rational man as to good, 3313, 3314. His coming from the field, weary or faint, to Jacob, the study of the good of life and desire for doctrinals, 3317 — 3319. His eating the pottage, which appeared red, and from which Esau was himself called Edom, such doctrinals, apparently good, appropriated, 3320. The contempt of his birthright on this occasion, the apparent priority and supereminence of truth, while the good of life is being attained by the regenerate, 3325, 3336. Esau's subsequently taking for a woman Judith, the daughter of Beeri, and Bashemath, the daughter of Elon, both Hittites, the adjunction of truths not genuine to natural good, 3470. Isaac's growing old and unable to see, the rational man without perception in the natural and desirous to illustrate it, 3493. His sending Esau for venison, the truth of good to be procured by the immediate influx of the will of the rational man into natural good, 3502, 3508, 3509. Jacob's forestalling Esau by the advice of Rebecca, that the way is provided by the mediation of natural truth ; thus that influx into the good of the natnral man must take place through the understanding, 3509, particularly 3563. The clothing of Esau put on him, the understanding acting and not the will, ill. 3539. His calling himself Esau, that the truth puts itself forward as the good, 3550. The voice appearing to Isaac as the voice of Jacob, and the hand as the hand of Esau, that it is perceived to be in inverse order, good being exterior when it should be interior, ill. 3563. His blessing him, that there is conjunction thereby notwithstanding, 3565. The coming of Esau afterwards, the genuine truth of good and its advent, 3588. His being to live by his sword, and finally throwing off the yoke of his brother, that conjunction could only take place by temp- tations, and that then truth would owe its conjunction to good, and not good to truth, 3601 — 3603. Esau's hatred of Jacob and his purpose to slay him on the death of Isaac, the aversion of good from truth in this inverse order, thus the withdrawal of the life that truth owes to good, 3605 — 3607. His taking Mahalath, the daughter of Ishmael, for a woman, conjunction with truth from a divine origin ; her being called the sister of Nabaioth, the affection of interior celestial truth, 3678, 3687, 3688, 4643. See Mahalath, Bashemath, (Supple- ment). It is to be noted that Esau was thought of and intended when Isaac blessed Jacob, whose substitution represented the apparent pri- ority and supereminence of truth until reformation and regeneration have been effected, 3576. 3. Their reconciliation. The inversion of the state preceding regen- eration, thus the true order instituted, is signified by the reunion of Jacob and Esau when the former returned from Haran, 4232. Jacob's messengers sent to Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom, de- notes the first communication with celestial good and truth thence, 4239 — 4241. Their announcement that Esau was coming, denotes the continual influx of good, ill. 4247. Four hundred men with him, and the fear of Jacob thereupon, the temptations that good brings along with it in assuming the first place, 4248, 4249, 4341. The present forwarded by Jacob to Esau, its arrangement in droves, &c., the acquire- ments of the natural man prepared for initiation into good, 4265, 4266, 4269. The disposition of his wives and children, the arrangement of interior truths under their affections, 4342 — 4345. His passing over before and bowing himself seven times as he drew near Esau, the high- est degree of submission and humiliation, 4346, 4347. Esau's running to meet him, the influx of divine good towards truth when thus insinu- ated externally, 4350. His embracing him, and falling upon his neck, and kissing him, conjunction more and more interior, thus by stronger and stronger love, 4351 — 4353. His lifting up his eyes and beholding the women and children, the affections of truth and the truths there- with perceived, 4356, 4357. The handmaidens and their - children approaching to Esau, and bowing themselves, the submission of scien- tific sensuals and the truths thereof, 4360. Leah and her children approaching and bowing themselves, the humble introduction of the ex- terior affection of faith and the truths thereof 436 1 . Joseph and Rachel approaching and bowing themselves, the humble introduction of the interior affection of faith and therewith the celestial spiritual man, 4362. Esau's gently refusing the gifts of Jacob, their tacit acceptance as the return of affection, thus in token of reciprocity on the part of man, 4363, ill. 4368, 4373. His desiring to set forth again with Jacob, pro- gression to ulteriors, 4375, 4376. His desiring to leave some of his men with him, that truths should flow-in from good now conjoined, 4385. Jacob's refusal of them, that illustration is from within and M 2 » • 164, ESS nearer presence is not requisite, 4386. Esau's going on his vi&y to Mount Seir that day, the state of divine good to which the goods of truth are now adjoined, 4387. By the generations of Esau are signified the derivations of divine good in the Lord's divine human, the whole chapter very briefly noted, 4639 — 4651. These divine states are expressed by mere names because they are such as cannot fall within the understanding of any man, and hardly of any angel, 4641, 4644. When the chapter is read, however, they are represented by a celestial light and influx afl"ecting the angels with divine good, 4642. They are obscure to human comprehension, because no one is born into any good, but only the Lord ; hence they signify such derivations as existed in the Lord's humanity when it was made divine by glorification, 4644. See Edom, Seir. ESCAPE, to [evadere], denotes liberation from damnation by re- mains, sh. 5899. The remnant, or those that escape, are such as have remains, 5899; compare 1700, 1701. See to Deliver. ESCHOL [EsckAol'}. See Aner. ESEK, in the original tongue, signifies contention or strife, from a root denoting oppression and injury ; the wellEsek signifies the internal sense of the Word denied, from the appearance of opposites, ill. 3427. ESPOUSALS. See Marriage. ESSE. All esse or being and life is of the Lord, 726. It consists in love, which is the only absolute life, 1735, 2253, 5042, 9954, 10,125. The human essence of the Lord was also made esse and life itself, 1 738, 3938, 5041, 10,053. As to esse, the Lord is called Jehovah, 726, 1738, 2253, 3938; and as to existence, God, 10,158. As to verimost esse he was divine good itself or Jehovah, and as to verimost derived esse divine truth itself which was of Jehovah, 3141. Concerning which good and truth, see 3703; and as to their unition, or the Lord's glorifi- cation, 10,053. The divine esse is the divine itself; the divine existere was the divine human before its assumption, 6880; but the human being made esse itself, the divine truth which proceeds from it is the divine existere, 6880, where the signification of the divine name I AM is ex. See also 6882, 6887, 7444, 10,579. The Lord is the esse itself of all love and wisdom with the angels, and is present wherever good is, as its esse, 2572. The difference between esse and existere is as the difference between man's soul and his sensitive or corporeal life, and as the difference between cause and effect, 2621. The divine is infinite as to esse and eternal as to existere, 3404. The celestial church adored the infinite esse in the infinite existing, from the perception and sensi- bility which they enjoyed, as a divine man, 4687. State as to esse corresponds to space, and state as regards existere to time, 3938. Existere is predicable of the Lord in the world, and of his divine pro- ceeding, but it is not in him, he having put on the divine esse, 3938. Love is the esse of man's life, and is as the soul, which creates the body to its image, 4727. The good of life is the very esse of man, and the truth of faith is the very existere thence ; the former is of the will, the latter of the understanding, 4985, 9995. The esse of man's life is to will, and thence to acknowledge, believe, and do, 9282, 9386, 9995. The esse of a thing is the good of love, because it conjoins ; non-esse is predicated of disjunction, ill. 5002. That which is the r I f ESS 165 esse of the life forms all that is derived from it, according to its own similitude, 10,125. The esse itself of man, and thence the inmost of his life, is from the father, the clothings or exteriors of which are from the mother, 5041. The eternal really is, because the divine or esse is in it, 8939. See Eternal, to Be. ESSENCE [essentia]. The essence of the Lord's life, answering to what is called the soul in man, was the divine itself, or divine essence called the Father, 4235. The human essence was only an additament to the divine essence, 1461; but it was made divine by conjunction, 1475, 1502, 1539. The divine essence immediately proceeding from the Lord is far above the inmost heaven, 7270, 8760. Love in its essence is the harmony resulting from the mutations and variations of state, in the forms of which the human mind consists ; which harmony is produced by the influx of divine love disposing such forms into the order of heaven, 5807. The essence of love and charity is the con- junction of two so that they become one, 1013. The essence of cha- rity towards the neighbour is the affection of good and truth, 4956 : for the neighbour is good itself, and consequently those who are in good, 5132. The essence of truth is good, and truth is not truth, however it appears like it, without its essence, 2429. Truths are no- thing but good, as an essence, formed into its various images in the understanding, 4574, 9818. In like manner, nothing in the whole universe is a thing unless it exists from divine good by divine truth, 5075; compare 6948. See Form. The internal church, in its es- sence, is charity, 1228. ESSENTIAL [essentiale']. With the regenerate, charity or love is the very essential or life itself of the will, 1001. The essential of all worship is the adoration of the Lord from the heart, which cannot exist without charity, when this is in external worship it is said to correspond to internal, 1 150, II 75. The most essential of all doctrines is that of the divine, the human, and the holy proceeding, as constituting one God ; what dissensions exist in the church on this subject, 3241, 9303. The very essential itself of the Lord's kingdom and the church, is good, 4576. The essentials of external divine goods and truths, are provi- dence, charity, love, conjugial love, &c., 4606. There are two essen- tials which constitute the church, and two principal doctrines depending thereon ; the first, that the human of the Lord is divine ; the second, that love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour constitute the church, 4723, 4766. The error that truth or faith is the first essential of the church has arisen from the appearance of its being first learnt, the good of the regenerate life being hidden in the interior man, 4925. The essential of the church is the good of truth, insomuch that it is the same thing whether a man is said to be in the good of truth or in the church, 5536. The divine truth, proceeding from the divine good, is jhe verimost reality and verimost essential in the whole universe, 5272, 8200. It is the one only substance by which all things exist, both essentially and formally; for the forms of things are the created recipients of divine truths, 8861. The essential can only act in the effect according to the quality of the instrumental by which it acts ; such instrumentals are signified in the Word by all kinds of vessels, 5948. See End. Essential and instrumental are only relative terms ; n It 166 ETE that which acts hy an instrument or organ in one case may itself be nothing more than an instrument or organ in another ; thus the only self-essential is the Lord himself, 5948. Unless things essential are regarded as the end, and things instrumental as subservient thereto, the former perish ; hence the Lord, as the verimost essential, ought to be regarded in all things, and he is regarded when uses are kept m view, 5949. If things essential are regarded as the end, there will be things instrumental in abundance, 5949. Truth is the essential of the spiritual church because it is the essential of spiritual good, 8042. The essentials of the spiritual church are charity and faith, hence the good of truth or spiritual good is represented by Israel, and spiritual truths received in the natural man by his sons, 6657, 7162. The essential of all things relating to heaven and eternal life is the good of love to the Lord, 9474. The first and verimost essential of the church, without which there can be no progress in the life of heaven, is the acknowledgment of the Lord as the Saviour of the world, 10,083, 10,089. See Education. The essentials of the church, as repre- sented by the keeping of the Sabbath, are to preserve the mind in holy thought concerning the union of the divine and hunian in the Lord, concerning his conjunction as to the divine human with heaven, con- cerning the conjunction of heaven with the church, and the conjunction of good and truth in the man of the church, 10,356. Love and faith are the essentials of the church, because they conjoin both men and angels to the Lord, the good of love conjoining their wills and the truth of faith their understandings, 10,361. The essential and the formal illustrated by the case of honesty and decorum, 4574 : and by charity and faith as constituent of natural truths, 5200. ETERNAL [ceternum]. To be and to live can only be predicated of what is eternal, consequently of the Lord, because all esse and life in eternity are of him, 726, 1096, 2572, 10,409. Men think of eternity from time, the angels from state, 1382, 3404, 3938, 8325. In the Lord, all is infinite and eternal ; infinite in respect to esse, eternal in respect to existere, 3404, 3701. Man can never comprehend what is from eternity, consequently nothing of eternity ; but the angels can comprehend it because to them the eternal is the infinite as to existere, being thought of from state and not from time, 3404, com- pare 8325. There are two states, namely, a state as to esse and a state as to existere ; the state as to esse corresponds to space, the state as to existere to time, 2625, 3938. The esse of man is the recipient of eternity, the existere is his life and felicity, 3938. The infinite, consequently the esse, is predicable of the Lord, and is in him ; the eternal, consequently the existere, is not in him, but from him, 3938. Man, in his inmost," is such as to be receptive of the divine, and to be capable of appropriating it by acknowledgment and affection; hence he can never die ; for he is in eternity and infinity, not only by influx thence but by reception, 5114. The infinite and the eternal are in all things done by the Lord ; the eternal, because he regards no terminus from which or to which, the infinite because in every minute particular he has regard to the universal, and in the universal to every minutest particular, 5264. The eternal is the infinite as to time, hence there is no proportion between myriads of years and eternity, 8939. The eter- EUP 167 nal iSf because it derives esse from the divine ; the temporal respectively considered, is not, 8939. The eternal is signified by generations, be- cause the generations of charity and faith are understood ; but eternity is predicated of divine good, generations of divine truth, thus of the divine celestial and divine spiritual, 6888, 9789. The statutes of the Israelitish nation were not eternal truths, but they enter into the holy things of the Word because they contain eternal truths, which truths are their internal sense, 10,637. The arrangement and providence of the Lord in respect to man's regeneration is eternal, everything done by him having in view somewhat that is to succeed to it, and so on to eternity, 10,048. Those who are elevated into heaven continue to be perfected to eternity, 754 1 . Those who are cast into hell sustain more and more grievous evils, until they no longer dare to do evil to any one; they then remain in hell to eternity, 7541. Days of eternity de- note the most ancient or celestial church, generations the ancient church, 477, 6239. The mountains of eternity denote the good of love of the most ancient church ; the hills of ages the good of mutual love ; the one being internal the other external, 6435. ETERNITY. See Eternal. ETHAM. The children of Israel journeying from Succoth to Etham denotes the second state of the spiritual after their liberation, 8103. See Journey. ETHIOPL\. See Ham. Cush or Ethiopia, and Sheba, in like manner as the gold and precious stones and aromatics with which the country abounded, signify good and truth and the grateful things de- rived from them, such as are knowledges of love and faith, 117. Speci- fically, the land of Cush denotes the mind or faculty ; and Gihon, the river which encompassed it, all knowledge, 116. In the opposite sense, Cush and its river signify the false and evil principles derived from ratiocination, 130. Ethiopia denotes those who possess celestial things, which are love, charity, and works of charity, 349. The sons of Cush denote knowledges of spiritual things ; the sons of Raamah knowledges of celestial things, 1132, 1168. Cush is said to have begot Nimrod, because it is only those who possess interior knowledges that can per- vert internal worship and make it external, 1173. See Nimrod. Cush or Ethiopia was a nation ; it signifies the more universal and interior knowledges of the Word, 1163, 1164, 1166, or of spiritual and celestial things 1169, 1173, 1174, 1176, thus in the opposite sense, the knowledge of good and truth whereby evils and falses are confirmed, 1164, 6723, 9340. Ethiopia, as signifying knowledges, cited, 2588. Why it is said the Ethiopian or negro cannot change his skin, 3540. What is signified by the tents of Cushan in affliction, 3242. See Seba, Sheba. EUCHARIST. The particulars of the eucharistic sacrifice denote the celestial things of faith and love, 3880, 8936. Being a free-will offering, it denotes worship from the heart, or love, 10,097. See Sacrifice. EUNUCH [eunuchus]. By eunuchs (Matt. xix. 12), are signified those who are in the heavenly marriage, according to the three degrees, 394. Eunuch (Isaiah Ivi. 3 — 5) denotes the natural man as to good, or the gentiles who are without the church and yet in good, sh, 5081. EUPHRATES [Phrath, seu Euphrates]. This river, as the boun- 168 EVE EVE 169 I i R dary of the dominion of Israel, denotes the sensual and scientific prin- ciple which is the boundary of celestial and spiritual intelligence, 120, 1585; and in the opposite sense, 130, 9341. The river of Egypt denotes the extension and termination of the spiritual things of faith ; Euphrates, of things celestial, 1866, 9828. As a boundary of the land of Canaan, the river Euphrates signifies not only the ultimate, where the representation of Canaan ceases, but also the primate where it begins, and on this account it denotes conjunction with good ; in the supreme sense, with the divine, 4116, 4117, 5196, 9341. Its signifi- cation varies, according as it is regarded from the midst of Canaan or from Assyria ; in the latter case it denotes the good and truth of the rational principle, ah, 9341. In the opposite sense, such good and truth adulterated and falsified by fallacious reasonings and scientifics which favour the loves of self and the world, sh. 9341. See Ashur, Eden. EUROPE, at this day, is signified by the faces of the ground, it being the tract of the church, where those are who are instructed in the doctrines of faith, 567. How contrary it is to the mercy of the Lord to suppose that only those can be saved who are born in Europe, the inhabitants of which only constitute a small portion of the human race, 1032. How strange it appears that the internal sense of the word should be unknown to the learned, especially to those of Europe who are in possession of the Word, 901 1. How the science of correspon- dences, upon which the knowledge of the internal sense depends, has been obliterated, 10,252. The full consummation of the Jewish church or the residuum of the worship of that nation takes place with the con- summation of the Christian church in Europe at this day, 10,497. See Church (4), Christians. The state of Europe represented by ap- pearances in the other life, 2125. EVANGELIZATION. See Gospel. EVE [ChavaK], Adam signifies the celestial man. Eve the church, 287. She is called the mother of all living from faith in the Lord, which is Hfe itself, 287 — 290, and from love, for the same reason, 476. By the marriage of Adam and Eve is described the first time when the church was in the flower of her age representing the celestial marriage, 29 1 . See Church. And as to the decline of the Adamic age, see Seth. EVENING [yespera]. Evening denotes the whole state of shade or of falsity, and the absence of faith, which precedes regeneration ; morning, the state that succeeds which is one of light, or of truth and the knowledges of faith, 22, 9787. The evening, like the morning twilight, denotes the state in which the goods and truths of faith begin a little to appear, 883. The evening denotes the state of the church when there is no longer any charity, and when, as a consequence, faith begins to decline ; the night which follows, denotes the total ab- sence of all things constituting the church, 2323. See Night. The evening also denotes the commencement of charity with a new church, but in this case the twilight before morning is understood ; thus by the evening is meant both the evening and the morning twilight according to the subject predicated, 2323. See Twilight. Evening, in general, signifies the visitation both of the faithful and the unfaithful, which precedes judgment, 2323, 7844. The evening denotes the state of obscurity which precedes the end of a falling church signified by night. * ^j I and the rise of a new church signified by morning, 3056. It denotes the obscure state of the natural man previous to the conjunction of truth with good in the rational ; thus, such things as are beneath the intuition of the latter or good in divine light, 3197. It denotes the obscurity of the state of initiation which precedes conjunction, when truths are indrawn and man is apparently deprived of them, ill. 3833, 3838, 5270. This state of obscurity or evening always precedes the morning of re- generation ; on this account, the day was reckoned from the evening in the representative church, 5270. The evening with angels is when the things of intelligence and wisdom fail them ; thus, the evening is a state of spiritual hunger, ill, 5576—5579, 6110. There are changes of illustration in heaven corresponding to morning, noon, and evening in the world ; the evening occurs when the angels are immitted into their proprium, 5672, 5964. The spring or morning of the spirit, is when man is held in the sphere of life, which he receives from the Lord by regeneration ; its autumn or evening is when he enters the sphere of his own life, 5725. The angels are perfected by continual changes of state from morning, noon, evening, and twilight, to morning again, 5962, 8426. The evening occurs to them when they do not perceive the Lord present, but it is shortly succeeded by twilight and morning, 5962, 5964. The light from the Lord as a sun continually flows into the will and understanding, but the evils and falses of the proprium surround it with the shades of evening, ill, 6110, 8812. There are similar changes in hell which are variations of shade and darkness, end- ing in night; but there is no night in heaven, 6110, 6000, 8426. The light which should appear about the time of evening, (Zech. xiv. 7 — 9,) denotes the advent of the Lord at the end of the representative church, 6000. In the other life, states of temptation, infestation, and desola- tion are evening and night ; states of consolation and festivity, morning and day-dawn, ill. 7193. Between the evenings, denotes the end of a former state, and the beginning of another ; as well for those who are saved, as for those who are damned, 7844, 7901. Evening denotes the end of a former church, or its vastation, and the beginning of a new church, sh. 7844. Evening and morning denote the coming of the Lord, sh. 7844. Evening denotes the end of a former state ; morning, the commencement of a new one, ill, and sh, 8426, 8427, 8431, 9787, 8452. Flesh in the evening denotes the good of the natural man, or the proprium, vivified ; bread in the morning, spiritual good from the Lord, 8431, 8432, 8447, 8448, 8452, 8455. In the time of evening, in heaven, the spiritual principle is in obscurity^ and the natural in clearness, and contrariwise when it is morning, 8431. In a state of evening in the other life, angels and good spirits are remitted into the state of natural delight pertaining to them when they were in the world, but such as contains in it spiritual good, ill, 8452. Evening, and the other states of time in the world, exist according to corres- pondence with the states of life in heaven, as effects from their causes, 8812. The ordering of the lamps from evening to morning, so that they might never go out, represented the influx of good and truth from the Lord continual in all states, 9786, 9787. Evening denotes a state of light, and of love in the external man, and morning in the internal ; illustrated by the state of the angels, and by reasons, and shown, 10,134, 170 E VI E VI 171 i 10,135. When morDiug and evening are mentioned the whole day is understood, morning including mid-day, and evening twilight, 10,135. Between the evenings does not mean between the evening of one day and the evening of another, but the time between evening and morning, thus including night (in the case of the evil) and twilight (in the case of the good), *A. 10,135. The spiritual man whilst he is becoming celes- tial, is the sixth day and evening of the Sabbath, hence the holiness of the Sabbath was reckoned from the evening in the Jewish church, 86. For the like reason the day before the paschal feast was called evening, 10,134. As to the Holy Supper, see Feasts, Supper, Initiation. EVIL, Sin [malum, peccatum'] : — 1. What evil is. Everything existing and everything done in the universe, which is according to order, has relation to good and truth ; everything which is not accord- ing to order, to evil and the false, 3166, 4390, 4409, 4839, 5232, 7256, 10,122. Evil is all that proceeds from an evil intention or end, 4839. See End. To sin is to act contrary to order, so that there is no con- cordance between the sensual externals and interiors, 4839, 5076. In- asmuch as those who are in inverse order, are disjoined from those who are in order, evil and sin consist in aversion and disjunction from the Lord, which are accordingly signified by evil and sin in the Word, 4997, 5229, 5474, 5746, 5841, 9346. Separation from the Lord implies separation from truth and good, which is also denoted by sin, 7589. In like manner, the returning of evil for good, which is denoted by aver- sion, 5746. The inversion of state in the case of the evil, occasions all good and truth flowing in from the Lord to be perverted, 3607, 6991, ill, 7643, 7679, 7710. Hence evil is hell and damnation, and when it is known what evil is, it may be known what hell is, 6206, 7155, 7181, 8918. The disjoining causes, or origin of all evil, are the loves of self and the world, and the quality of all evil may be known from the quality of those loves, 693, 694, 760, 1321, 1594, 1690, 1691, 2039, 2041, 2045, 2057, 2219, 2364, 2444, 2632, 3413, 4750, 4776, 6667, 7178, 7255, 7364, 7376, 7488, 7490-7494, 8318, 8487, 8678, 8918, 9335, 9348, 10,038, 10,742. The mercy of the Lord is never removed from man, but evils are as dense clouds which conceal the Lord from his view, 5696. To do evil when predicated of those who are in truths and goods, signifies the infestation and temptation to which they are subject, predicated of the Lord it denotes his permission of such infes- tations, 7165, 7168. In the Word, evils are mentioned by the several names of sins, iniquities, and prevarications ; sins denote such as are done against the good of charity and love ; iniquities such as are done against the goods of faith ; prevarications (or trespasses) such as are done against the truths of faith, 9156, 6563. Tbe sin against the Holy Spirit is the hypocrisy of those who profane the divine truth proceeding from the Lord; which is done by thinking evil of holy things and speaking well of them, and by willing evil and doing well, 9013. To do evil is to violate the good of charity, and the divine human and holy proceeding of the Lord, 2359, 2373. God not permitting evil to be done, denotes that evil was not able to impede the influx of good, 4078. The phrase to do evil and to sin against God is used, because all evil disjoins man from the Lord and from heaven, 4997. To do evil is to disjoin, 5596. To do evil when predicated of the Lord, in reference to those who are in truths and goods, denotes the permitting them to be too much infested, 7165, 7168, compare 7392. 2. The hereditary state as to evil. It is a universal truth that men are born into evils of all kinds, insomuch that their proprium is nothing but dense evil, 210, 215, 694, 731, 874, 987, 1023, 1049, 2307, 2308, 3518, 3701, 3812, 4317, 8480, 8550, 10,283, 10,284, 10,286, 10,731. Hereditary evil is not derived from Adam, but actual evils which have become habitual with the parents are transmitted to the children, and so on to posterity with continual augmentation and increase, 313, 494, 2910, 3469, 3701, 4317, 8550. To this hereditary accumulation of evil is added the actual evils committed by each individual, 8551. The springs of all evil and falsity, which are born with the proprium of man, are the loves of self and the world, 210, 694, 4317, and passages cited above (1). The native proprium is all that is evil and false, but it is sus- ceptible of being tempered by goods and truths from the Lord, in which case it becomes the ground of a new and beautiful creation, 731, 164. In consequence of this hereditary nature man is viler than any beast, and as he grows up to maturity would rush into all manner of wicked- ness unless he were under restraining influences, 987. It brings him into communication with hell by the medium of evil spirits, and thus is itself the hell of each individual, 987, 1049, 8480. In consequence of the augmentation of evil through successive generations, it is more intense or malignant now than in ancient times, 2122, 2910. See Judgment. Infants derive their different inclinations and tempers from hereditary evil, 2300, compare 4317. Their native proprium is nothing but evil, illustrated by the case of those who die in infancy and are educated in heaven, 2307, 2308, 4563. From the father is derived interior evil, which is less susceptible of eradication ; from the mother exterior evil, 4317, compare 3518. Hereditary evil is not the evil that may be committed, but it is the thought and will of evil which adjoins itself not only to evils in act but also to good, 431 7. It consists in the depraved forms of the will and understanding, as receptive of good and truth, which are so distorted by the continual habit of doing evil, that they pervert all that flows in from the Lord, 4317. The ofl'spring con- ceived by parents who are living in the good (so to call it) of the love of evil, are born with a flexibility and proneness to evils of every kind, so that they are easily seduced into their worst and vilest forms; in like manner, the children conceived of parents who are living in the good of the love of falsity, are in the proclivity to falses of all kinds, for they derive from that good the craft of insinuation, hypocrisy, &c., 3469. All that is evil and false flows in from hell, and man makes it his own by appropriation, 3812. Evil spirits however are only permitted to operate into the actual evils, by which man procures to himself a sphere of cupidities and falses, not into hereditary evils, 1667, compare 4563. Thus they are not permitted to excite anything of evil and the false with infants and the simple in heart, 1667. No one sufl^ers punishment on account of hereditary evils, but only for those acquired by himself, 966, 1667, 2307, 2308, 9069. On account of the inherent evil of his nature it is necessary for man to be regenerated and accept new life from the Lord, 3701. Natural good is connate with man but not truth, on account of hereditary evil, 3304, compare 4644. Connate good is of 172 E VI four kinds, namely, that of the love of good, that of the love of truth, that of the love of evil, and that of the love of the false ; such good being derived from the parents according to the habits of their life, 3469. Such hereditary or connate good is not spiritual, but like the juice of unripe fruits, until it is tempered by the influx of charity and faith from the Lord, 34/0, 3471, 3508, 3518, 7761. Its quality further illustrated in comparison with divine good, 8480. It is the means by which truth can be insinuated, and thus the regeneration of the natural man effected, 3508, 3518. To this end, on account of the contrariety between the hereditary state of man and divine order, he is born in mere ignorance, 1050, 1902, 3175. See Proprium, Re- generation. The intellectual proprium is distinct from the voluntary proprium, 10,283. The good of the voluntary part perished with the antedilu- vians ; now, the good of the intellectual part begins to perish, 2124. The state of man is such that goods and truths are turned in an instant into evils and falses, 2123. It is so perverse that nothing but the vilest evils are seen when the interiors become manifest, and many who appear like angels in the world are mere devils, 7046. 3. Its procedure and connection with falses. Not only all that is evil, but all that is false springs from the proprium of man, 1047. The proximate causes are several, as, the fallacies of the senses, the pre- dominance of some cupidity in such fallacies, and an evil will which will acknowledge nothing for truth unless it favour its cupidities, 1 188, compare 1212, 4729. The false may be derived from evil, or it may be productive of evil; in like manner, evil may be derived from some predominant false principle, or it may produce the false, 1679, 10,109 and citations, 10,624. The false of evil is all that man thinks while he is in evil by way of excusing it; the false producing evil is when evil is done from some religious conviction that it is not evil, 2243. There are evils and falses which can be conjoined and applied in a wonderful manner to goods and truths, and there are such as can- not, ill, 3993. When evil is willed, it is confirmed by false thinking, in which case, falses appear like truths and truths like falses, 4729. Such falsity is called the false of evil, and the very worst of falses spring from it, 4729. Evil derived from the false of evil, consists of the evils that are lived in consequence of false doctrines ; such doctrines again being the offspring of the evil of self-love, 4818. Evil of this kind completely closes the way to the internal man, ill, 4818. The kinds and species of evil are innumerable, and they are distinguished according to the various societies of infernal spirits, 4818, 4822, 7574. ^All evil carries the false along with it, hence they are in falses who are in evils of life whether they know it or not, 7437, 7577. Falses mani- fest themselves with such as soon as they begin to think about the truths of the church, and especially about salvation, 8094. The falses of evil appear like impure waters, or seas and clouds over the hells, 8137, 8138, 8146, 8220. Those who are in the falses of evil are brought into anguish by the mere presence of the Lord, thus they are damned and cast into hell, 8137, 8138, 8188, 8227, ill, and sh. 8265, compare 7926. The false of evil, having evil in it, is heavy and tends to hell, 8279, 8298. It also appears hard, the harder the more it is E VI 173 confirmed, 6359. Those who are in evils of life falsify truths, as those who are in the good of life verify falses, or convert them to truths, 8149, compare 8051, 831 1. The evil are permitted to falsify the truths they acquire in order that they may not remain in communication thereby with the simple and the good, 7332. Every kind of evil is adjoined to some particular kind of false principle, because the will springs into light, and effigies and forms itself by the understanding, 83 1 1 . The falses in which evils are latent cannot be bent to the good of the church, 9258 ; and hence, are not to be mingled with its truths, 9298, 10,302. Falses of evil infest the truth and combat with it, 9304. Evils derived from falses are condemnatory, but not to the same degree as evils originating in the loves of self and the world, 7272 ; and not with those who are principled in good, 8318. Evil which enters into the thought is not hurtful, but only when it is kept in thought and consented to, for it then passes into the will, and when opportunity offers into act ; thus consent to evil opens the hell corresponding thereto, 6203, 6204. Evil from the will and not at the same time from the understanding is not condemnatory ; but guilt consists in doing evil which is seen and understood to be evil, 9069. Evils are not rooted and appropriated to man which proceed only from one part of his mind, whether it be the voluntary or the intellectual part, but only those which are foreknown and intended by him, 9009. Evils and falses in man assume a certain order and connection so that they cannot be sud- denly removed from him, ill. and sh. 9334, 9335. Every particular evil and falsity has a rooted connection with all other evils and falses, and they are so innumerable, and their connection so intricate, that the angels cannot comprehend them, but only the Lord, 9336. The only power of resisting them is from the Lord, hence, those who are in ex- ternals only, and thus separate from the Lord, are under their dominion, ill. and sh, 10,481. So far as evil and the falses of evil are removed, so far the truths of good are multiplied, ill. 10,675. See Falses. 4. Its appropriation and punishment. The law of equilibrium, by which the formation, disposition, and conjunction of all things is pre- served, secures to evil its own consummation, thus, its punishment, as to good its reward, 689, 696, 967, 1857, 6559, 8214, 8223, 8226, 9048. Such punishment does not accrue to hereditary evil, but only to the actual evils of which a man is guilty by his own fault, 966, 1667, 2307, 2308, 9069. To this end the more malignant hells are kept separate, so that they cannot operate into hereditary evil, 1667, 8806. Evil of its own nature gravitates to hell, and the mere presence of the Lord is an agony to those who are in evil, 8279, 8298, 8265. The Lord never casts any into hell, but endeavours to lead all from hell, and turn all punishment and torment to good, and to some use, 696, com- pare 8631. There are always angels at hand to moderate the punish- ment of the evil, but it cannot be withdrawn on account of the law of equiUbrium, and the provision thereby for the safety of the good, 967. Every evil has its bounds which it cannot transgress without running into the punishment of evil, hence, its consummation, 1857. Man casts himself into hell when he does evil, first entertaining it in thought, then from consent, next from purpose, and lastly, from the delight of affection, 6203. By indulging in evil it inheres in the thought and is 174 E \ I E VI 175 appropriated by passing into the will and act, 6203, 6204. Evil is ap- propriated to man because he believes he thinks and acts of himself; if he reflected that it came from evil spirits, the angels would avert and reject it, because their influx is into what man knows and believes, 4151, 6206, 6324, 6325. It is the evil which man conflrms in thought even to faith and persuasion that renders him culpable, 4 172. Evil spi- rits are punished in proportion to the evils with which they were actually imbued in the world ; good spirits when they speak or do any evil are pardoned and excused because their end is not evil, and they know that the excitement to evil is from hell, 6559. In the letter of the Word, evil and the punishment of evil are attributed to the Lord, yet nothing but good proceeds from him, 2447, 6071, 6991, 6997, 7533, 7632, 7643, 7681, 7710, 7877, 7926, 8223, 8227, 8228, 8632, 9306. In like manner, wrath or anger, which appertains solely to man, 5798, 6071, 6997, 8284, 8483, 9306, 10,431. The evil devastate themselves when heaven flows in, which the Lord is continually arranging in order, by rushing into the opposite evils and falses ; and in the same degree that they rush into evil, they rush into its punishment, 7643. See Punishment. By this operation the hells arrange themselves, and take up a situation according to the degree of their evil, when the Lord arranges the heavens, 7679, 7681. The means by which he arranges the heavens and the new comers there, is the influx of good and truth, which also passes to the evil and is turned by them into the opposite ; hence, the dominion of the potency of divine truth in heaven, produces a new state among those who infest heaven, which is signified by dark- ness, 7710. Thus from the Lord there is nothing but good, and all evil is from those who are in evil, ill. 7877, 7926, and citations above. The case illustrated from the circumstance that, with those who are in evils and falses, the internal man is closed above and open beneath, 9128. It is otherwise expressed in the Word on account of the simple, and because the Lord appears to every one according to his quality ; thus, according to the common idea and appearance of truth, 7632, 9010, and citations, 9306, and citations. See Anger, Appearance. The spiritual law of order by which all evil reverts to the evil doer, is the ground of the Jewish law of retaliation, 8214, ilL and sh, 8223, 8226, 9048. In the other life all are remitted to their interiors, there- fore into their evils, 8870. 5. Its remission. Evils and falses remain with man, notwithstand- ing his being regenerated ; but he is strongly withheld from them and detained in good, 865, 868, 874, 887, 894, 929, 987, 1581, 4564, 8206, 8393, 9014, 9333, 9447, 10,057. They remain with him even after death, so that his proprium is for ever nothing but evil, and all the good he can have is continually from the Lord, 868, 2116. They remain in one way with those who have lived in them, and in another way with those who are regenerate or in charity, 868, 2116. In con- sequence of the adhesion of evils and falses in the proprium, man can never do anything that is good, or think anything that is true of himself, 874. For the same reason he can never say that his state is perfected, but c^n be continually progressing in perfection, 894. Hence, likewise, he can never of himself have dominion over evil, 987. The angels, if they do not reflect upon it, know no other than that evil is separated from them, yet they are only detained from evil, 1581. Though evil is not exterminated with the regenerate it is separated, and by the Lord's disposition of things rejected to the circumference, 4551, 4552, 4564. It can only be separated with those who live in charity or the life of faith, because the Lord can only be present in good and truth, 8206. So far as this is the case sins are remitted, because the remission of sins consists in being withheld from evil and kept in good, 8391, 8393, 9014, 9333, seriatim 9443 — 9454. Man is continually falling of himself, but is continually raised up by the Lord, 8391. His sins are continually remitted by the Lord in proportion as his life is formed according to the precepts of faith, 8393. He is capable of being detained from evil in the other life, in the same degree that he has resisted evil in the Hfe of the body; he can also be kept in good in proportion as he has done good from aifection ; there is no other remission of sins, 8393, 9448, 9452 — 9454. Evils and sins are not washed away, but they are re- moved, and this successively, 9088, particularly 9333, 9334, ill. 9336. Evils are removed by the implantation of goods, falses by truths, 9335. The sins which a man does become rooted in his life, and make his life ; hence he can only be liberated from them by receiving new life from the Lord, that is, by regeneration, 9444, 9452—9454. All are withheld from evil and sustained in good by the Lord, but the unre- generate obstruct and turn the influx of good into evil, 9446, 9447. The signs that sins are remitted, 9449. The signs that they are not remitted, 9450. Sins are removed from man by the reception of faith and love from the Lord, and so far as sins are removed, hell is removed, 9938. When sins are removed from man or he is removed from them, it appears as though they were altogether extirpated, 9938. The sin against the Holy Spirit cannot be forgiven because man cannot be re- moved from it, because it consists in a profane mingling of what is evil and good, and what is true and false, ill. md sh. 9013, 9014. The priesthood bearing the iniquity of the people, represented the Lord sus- taining the eternal combat with hell in behalf of man, sh. 9937. The people bearing their iniquities represented damnation ; no one, however, was really damned for the omission of an external rite but only for evils of the heart, sh. 9965. The expiation eff*ected by the blood of young animals represented purification by the good of innocence, 10,210. See Sacrifice. When man comes into the other life, if he has lived a life of love and charity, evils are separated from him, and the good elevates him to heaven ; if the contrary, good is separated froLi him, in which case the evd conducts him to hell, 2256. It is provided that goods and evils shall be separated, on account of the destruction consequent on their being mingled, 2269, 31 10, 3116, 5217. See to Profane. In pro- portion as evils and falses are removed there is an influx of good and truth from the Lord, 2388, 2411. Good cannot flow into truth, thus there cannot really be truth, with those who are in evil, 2434, 3607. Man can only become rational as good and truth are conjoined, ill. 3175. If good and truth form the rational man, and the natural man . m correspondence therewith, man becomes an image of heaven ; if ' formed by what is evil and false he becomes an image of hell, 3513. By the appropriation of good is meant the implantation of good iti the - 176 EXI EXP 177 1' 1- will, which can never take place while the will is in evil ; hence, man must be purified from evils in order to receive good from the Lord, «/*. 10,109. Man is in liberty to desist from evil because he is perpetually kept in the tendency thereto by the Lord, 8307. EXACTORS. See Moderators. EXALT, to [exaltare]. See High. EXCISION. See Desolation. EXCREMENT [Jimus, stercus, excrement uifi]. The successive states through which the spirit passes in the other life, compared with the passage of the food in the human system ; the first hell corresponding with the rectum, 5175. The excrement itself corresponds to certain hells which are called the excrementitious hells, 5392. The filthy odour which they exhale is like that of human excrement, &c., from experience, 824, 1514, 4628, 4631, 7161. The disgusting scenes into which corporeal pleasures are changed in those hells, from experience, 943, 954, 1096, 1631. They who have lived a delicate hfe, combining craft with their pleasures, are in things excrementitious, 4948. The cruel and adulterers are in excrementitious hells, 2755, 5390, 5394. The voluptuous, and they who had regarded mere pleasures as an end of life, are under the buttocks, and live in filth, 5395. Robbers and pirates delight in stinking urine, 820, 5387. The inhabitants love to live in such places, because they correspond to the evils they have loved in the world, 7161. The belly corresponds to the way towards hell, 8910. A stench denotes aversion and abomination, 4516, #A. 7161, 7319, 7409. The state of damnation is actually perceptible by the foetid and stinking odour that it exhales, 7766. Dung and excre- ment denote what is infernal, because derived from the useless and ob- solete parts of food, and food in the spiritual sense is truth and good, 10,037. See Hell. Dung and excrement denote what is infernal, sh. 10,037. EXCRETIONS, the, and secretions of the human body are in uniform series, and are in correspondence with certain spirits; in like manner the organs of excretion and secretion, 5380, 5386, 5390. EXHALATION. See Sphere. EXINANITION, Excision, Consummation, &c., signify a state of desolation and vastation in man, 5360. In some of his other works the author applies the term to the Lord's voluntary state of humiliation, or the unclothing of the humanity. See Lord. EXISTENCE, ExisTERE [existentia, existere']. There is no such thing in nature as an independent existence and subsistence, 3627, tV/. 3628. There is nothing but what exists and subsists from something prior to itself, and this even to the first ; consequently everything that is exists by a spiritual medium from the Lord, and receives influx ac- cordingly, 4523, 4524, 6040, 6056. The prior flows into the poste- rior, and this successively ; thus all the interiors exist in the ultimate in their own order, 6451. The successive formations are separate though not independent, 6465. Without a knowledge of this order of subsistence and existence no one can understand the internal man and its existence after the death of the body, 6465. Subsistence is perpe- tual existence ; thus, preservation and all production in each world, the spiritual and the natural, is perpetual creation, 3648. Existere differs I from esse as the sensitive life of the body from the soul, and as an effect from its cause, 2621 ; also as time differs from space, 3938 ; and as the understanding from the will, 9282. See Esse. EXISTERE. See Existence, Esse. EXPAND, tOy [expandere]. See Expanse, to Dilate. EXPANSE [expamio']. The internal man, or heaven, is called an expanse; hence mention is made of expanding the earth and stretch- ing out the heavens, 24, 25 ; also of the waters over the expanse, and the waters under the expanse, by which are signified knowledges, inter- nal and external, 24 ; also of the greater and lesser lights placed in the expanse, by which are signified love and faith, 30. To expand or stretch out, is to make or create from divine power; hence it denotes omnipotence, by which heaven is amplified and filled with life and wisdom, 7673, 8043. To stretch out the heavens like a curtain is to amplify heaven by the influx of divine truth, 9595. See to Dilate. To extend and expand the tabernacle by means of the curtains, has the same signification as to extend the heavens and expand the earth; namely, the regeneration of man by forming a new intellectual part wherein is a new will, 9596. See Extension. EXPEL, tOy Cast out, to, [expellere, ejicere]. To be cast out of the garden of Eden signifies the being deprived of all intelligence and wisdom, 305. To be cast out from the faces of the ground signifies the being separated from every truth of the church, 386. To cast out signifies to exterminate, ill. by the case of Hagar and her son Ishmael, who were ejected from the house of Abraham, 2657. To expel them, signifies the flying or shunning of such things, 7189, 7768, 9332, 9333, because that is expelled which is contrary to the will and its affections, 7670. To expel signifies to be removed, 7980, 9333, 10,638. It signifies the being cast down and destroyed, 8295. The expulsion from Paradise signifies the closing up of the intelligence and wisdom of the internal man, 9960. To expel the Canaanites, &c., from thy faces, signifies the removal of evils from the interiors, or from the will and understanding, 10,638. To expel when predicated of man signifies re- moval, because evils cannot be expelled from him, 10,674, and citations, 10,057. But that it was otherwise in the case of the Lord, with whom they were not removed, but actually expelled or cast out, 10,057. EXPIATION. The Lord's expiation or propitiation is protection from the overflowing of evil, 645. The separation of evil by good from the Lord, was represented by the expiation effected by the sin- offering, 3400. Expiation by blood signifies the holy proceeding of the Lord's divine human, 4735 ; thus purification from evils by the truths of faith, derived from the good of love, 10,208. The process of expia- tion when Aaron entered into the holy of holies (Levit. xvi.), repre- sents the regeneration of man, to his attaining a celestial state ; and the Lord's glorification, 9670. By expiation is meant deliverance from damnation, and hence the pardoning and cleansing of sin, 9076 ; the same by propitiation, 9506. How false the doctrine of expiation as commonly received is, ill, and sh. 9937. All expiation effected by washing, burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, represented the purification of the heart from evils and falses, thus regeneration, 9959, 9990, especi- ally 10,042, 10,208, 10,210. Expiation by the removal of evils and falses involves the implantation of good and truth, 10,127 ; the all of 178 EXT I If faith and love being from the Lord, and nothing from man, 10,220. See Propitiation, Redemption. . . /. u EXPLORATION. Before the initiation and conjunction of truth with good a most exquisite exploration takes place, which is done by the medium of spirits and angels, 3110. It consists in an exquisite weighing or libration, to prevent the least minimum of the false being conjoined to good, or of truth to evil, 3116. If this were not done man would eternally perish, 3 1 1 fi. It is an exploration as to innocence and charity in truth, and as to its origin, 3110, 3125. Being recalled out of its natural forms, truth is conjoined with good in the midway, which is the rational, 3128. See Initiation, Conjunction. The visitation which precedes judgment at the end of a church is explora- tion, 2242. He who would know the quality of his life should ex- plore the ends which he regards, 1909, 379G ; the particular charac- teristics he ought to look for, 1680, 3796. But no one can explore himself unless he knows what the good of love to God and his neigh- bour is, and what truth ; and what the evil of the love of self and the world is, and what its false, 7178. The doctrinals of the church are not to be believed because the ministers of the church teach them, but they are to be explored by illustration from the Word, 6047, and the end of 5432. See Spies. It is impossible to explore the mysteries of faith by scientifics, 233, 1475. Concerning certain spirits who are in the cupi- dity of exploring and chastising others, 5381-— 5384, compare 10,153. EXPRESSIONS [expressiones]. How the affections treated of in the internal sense fall into natural expressions, as the aversion of the good from evil into expressions of hate, 3605. It is usual, espe- cially in the Prophets, to describe a state by two similar expressions, but the one involves the common idea, the other something deter- minate therein, 2212. One involves what is celestial, thus good; the other what is spiritual, thus truth, which together represent the divine marriage, 3880. Accordingly the one has relation to the will, the other to the understanding, 4691, 5502, 7711, between which there is a perpetual inherence and involution, or kind of marriage, carried on, 590. See Language. EXPULSION. See to Expel. EXTEND, to, [extendere]. See Extension, to Dilate. EXTENSION. See Expanse. How foolish it is to deny sub- stance and extension to spirit, for thus place is denied to it, and conse- quently the possibility of its being in the body, 444, 446. Extension and gravity do not exist in heaven, but only their appearances originat- ing from states of good and truth in the superior heaven, 5658. The extension of the sphere of perception, or its limits, is proportionate to opposites ; thus the degree of felicity experienced by man is propor- tionate to his previous experience of the contrary, 2694. Thought dif- fuses itself into the societies of spirits and angels round about, and the faculty of understanding and perceiving is according to that extension, 6599, 6611. This extension or nexus, however, is by influx from the societies, not to them, 6600, compare 8794, 9962. The extension of divine influx is denoted by Jehovah's looking, 8212. The extension of heaven, or of its spheres, is to the limit of every one's good, 8794. The sphere of every one's Ufe has extension either into societies of the angels or societies of hell, according to the quantity and quality of good EXT 179 i or evil with man, 8794, see above, 6599, 6600. There is an extension of the all of love and the all of faith from society to society in heaven, also from one heaven into another, and from heaven to man, 996 1! The extension of good and truth described by breaking forth to the west and the east, 3708. The extension of truths from good by be- coming a great multitude in the midst of the earth, 6285. Such exten- sion is according to the quantity and quality of good, and is manifested by spheres, 8063. The boundaries of Canaan, from the border of Egypt on one side to Tyre and Zidon on the other, denotes extension from scientific truths to interior truths ; its other boundaries the ex- tension of good, 9340, and citations. The etxension of the sensual part of man, signified by the grate of network about the altar, is from the head to the loins, 9731, compare 9348. Every man has his own particular measure or state, and the limit and degree of its extension are manifest in the other life, 7984. As to the extension or stretching out of the hands, see Hand. EXTERNAL, Exterior.— 1. Universally. Nothing can exist in exteriors but what is produced from interiors, 994. How one thing is re- latively exterior to another in all degrees, 3084. The distinction between interiors and exteriors is such that the exteriors are not necessary to the existence of the interiors ; the doctrine of degrees illustrated, 3691 . See Degree. Exteriors are images and forms composed of myriads of internal things which appear as one, 3855, compare 3695. Being fur- ther from the divine, who is within the inmost of all, they are respec- tively inordinate, and more exposed to contingencies, 3855. They are continually arranged and disposed into order from the inmost, 5897, compare 5396, (duplicate number). There is no influx from exteriors to interiors, but always the contrary, notwithstanding appearances, which are fallacies of the senses, 5119, 6322. The external lives from the internal, and the internal is in it as its adequate form, whence it is able to act according to the influx which itself receives from the divine; in other words, the internal clothes itself with such things in the exter'- nal as may enable it, in that inferior sphere, to produce effect, 6275, 6284, ill, 6299. Influx is continued from within to the very ultimates of order, where it presents the appearance as if life were in ultimates or externals ; but it is only the common life and subsistence of innu- merable things flowing in from interiors, and hence, compared with in- tenor life, it exists in obscurity, 6451, 6454. It comes into clearness in proportion as it is reduced to compliance and correspondence with the interiors, 6454. The external ought to be in such subordination and correspondence, 5427, 5477, 5947. The communication and cor- respondence IS preserved by a transit as of fibres constituting the exter- nal the receptacle of the internal, 8603. Thus, the external is held in Its connection and form by the internal which subsists in it with all its substances and forces, but not continuously, 6465. Goods and truths in ultimates are as belts which contain and strengthen all the interiors in one connection, ill. and sh. 9828. The interiors not only flow into ultimates, but they are present in ultimates in their true order and con- nection, illustrated by end, cause, and effect, 9824, and by the Word, «c., 10,614. See End. The conservation of the whole depends on the state of the ultimate in which the interiors find their strength and potency, dl. and *A., 9836. It is the inmost or supreme, by means of n 2 180 EXT the lowest, which contains all the interiors, which are intermediates, m their connection and form, ill, md sh, 10,044, compare 9499. The ultimates or external in which interiors rest compared with the skin, 9216. The external is as the effect, the internal as the efficient cause, ill. 94/3. Things are less perfect in proportion as they proceed to ex- ternals, 9666; the last and the first are contained together, 4901. The last or ultimate signifies the whole and every part, 10,044. The first and the last, or the inmost and the extreme, signify the whole, ill, and sh. 10,329, 10,335. 2. In respect to man. The internal and external man are not what the learned commonly suppose, but all the goods and truths which are of the Lord compose the former, and the whole sensual man, without regard to his being in a material body, the latter, 978. The internal consists of goods and truths from the Lord ; the interior, of the rational part ; and the external, of the affections of good and the scientifics of the memory, lOlf), 1889. The external man consists of three parts, the rational which is interior and is the means of uniting the external and the internal, the scientific which is exterior, and the sensual, which is outmost, 1589. What is commonly regarded as the external man is only the corporeal part ; it consists properly of the scientifics of the memory and the affections of the love, with all the sensual and pleasur- able means of their enjoyment in the spirit itself, 1718, 4659, 5884. These affections and pleasures illustrated from the animals and creep- ing things which correspond thereto, 994, 995. The external man is formed to be a recipient of the particulars and singulars of the internal which flow in as the organical vessels of the external are opened, 1563. The means of opening such vessels are the scientifics and knowledges of the understanding, and the pleasures and delights of the will, 1563. See Scientifics. Among these affections and knowledges of the ex- ternal man are things which agree and things which disagree with the internal, 1563, ill, 1568. With the external man all is natural, for it is the same as the natural man, and hence it can never be united to the internal except apparently by influx from the Lord, 1577. The exter- nal is separated from the internal by evil cupidities and false persua- sions, that is to say, good and truth are thus separated, so that they can only flow in remotely, 1587, 1594. The beauty of the external man could it be united to the internal, would be ineffable, 1590 ; and how base it is in consequence of being disjoined, 1598. The inverted forms which occasion this disjunction could never be restored by the immediate influx of good and truth from the Lord, hence the inverted vray of the senses is provided, and man is made rational miraculously by their agency, 1 902. The external man is nothing but an instru- mental organism, which accepts its life from the internal, and then ap- pears as if it had hfe itself, 1603. The internal and external are equally one man, 1999, 2018. The medium between the internal and external is the rational man, which is the interior of the natural submit- ting to the divine influx, 1702, 1707, 1732, 1889, compare 1589, 1940. The external sight, properly considered, is only the sight of the spirit produced among outward objects, in order that it may reflect therefrom upon interior things, thus that man may see internals from externals, 1806, 1807, compare 1914, 1953. The internal can see all things that are in the external, but not contrariwise, unless there be a medium ; EXT 181 still less if there be not correspondence, and by correspondence con- junction, til, 5427, 5428, 5477, 9128. The affection of sciences, by which as a mother the rational man is born is the life of the exterior man, 2675. Order requires that the natural or external man, which is wise from the ight of the world, should serve the spiritual, which is 7u^ o?i^ the light of heaven, but this order has been inverted by the tall, 3 1 67. On account of this order the external is called a servant, and *i ?i Q fnTi^^'^mu"''.^^'^ ^^ servants in the Word, the internal a Lord, 171^, 10,471. The internal or spiritual man is formed to the image of heaven, the external or natural man to the image of the world, 3628 4a23, 4524, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9706, 10,156, 10,429, 10,472. The case illustrated by the correspondence of interior and exterior forces m he body, 3628, 4523. External things are adequate and adapted to the body internal to the spirit, 24/6, 10,174. On this account man was called by the ancients a microcosm or little world, 4523 Bv man the spiritual world actually flows into the natural world, so that he may, if he attend thereto, sensibly perceive it, 6057, 10,472. Heaven flows into the external man by means of the internal, 4963, 1U,4«4. All influx IS from the internal into the external, the natural ^foo 'I? ''^''® '" "^^^^^ ®P^"^"^1 ^"^"^ terminates, 5119, 5651, .^ '\ ?^® . externals of man are formed that they may serve ^7fi«^ ^n^i'^o^'i^^.^ ^"'^^'''^^ '"^^ ^^'"^^^^ ^^ ^"bject to the internal, 5786 0947, 6275, 6284, 6299, 9216, 9828. Left to itself, the ex' ternalman is completely opposed to the internal, 3913, 3928; and man at this day is immersed in the external, or body, 5649. The ex- ternal is so opposed to the internal that none of the truths of faith are believed while it dominates ; enumeration of the sensual fallacies which occasion this darkness, more especially with those who are in the love of self and the world, 5084. Hence, man ought not to allow himself any freedom from the proprium, in order that he may accept celestia freedom from the Lord, and that the internal may act in the external as m its subject, 5786. The external man is created for the world, only that it may be subject to the internal which is created for heaven, 10,396. The externals of man are opened by degrees, by the operation of the world upon him from infancy to adult age ; the contrast with the operation of heaven, which opens his internals, 9279, 10,156 It is only an appearance that the external man thinks, for all intel- ligence is in the light of heaven, consequently in the internal man, which thinks in the external, 3679. The mode of thought in the ex- Q^if°n ^^"^ ^^ different according as it corresponds with the internal, 36/9; compare 9/02, 9703, and see Thought. The rational is the mternal man, the natural the external; but the latter has an internal !^^n^\1?o .?oT' *^ ^^'^^^' ^293, 3294, 5649; particularly 3793, 4.5/0, 51 18, 5126, 5497. See Natural. Angels as well as men are relatively external and internal, and this in each of the three heavens, 4280; compare 5649. The societies of spirits and angels to which ex- ternals correspond, are for the most part from this earth, but they make one with those to which internals correspond, in like manner^ as the external man and the internal make one with the regenerate, 4330. 1 he inhabitants of this earth are external-sensual ; how they infest those Who are internal-sensual, and combat with them, 4330. What it is to be m externals only, illustrated by the posterity of Jacob, who could 182 EXT entertain nothing but an evil opinion and intention concerning the truth and eood of the internal man, 4281, 4293, 4307, 4429, 4433, 44o9. 4865—4868, 4899, 4903; and citations 9320, 9380, 10,396, 10.692. The reasons of their immersion in externals and thus of the separation of heaven from them, and the same with many Christians, especially the more intelligent, 10,492. See Jews. Those who are in externals only, whatever ingenuity they may possess in regard to the things ot civil hfe, or in matters of learning, have no faith in anything but what is sensual, 4464. External truths, and those who are in external truths only, are weak and wavering; but they who are in internal truths at the same time, are firm and discriminate, ilL 3820. The external man is so distinct from the internal, that the latter can live a perfect h^ with- out it, as it does when the body is separated by death, 5883. The ex- ternal must exist before the internal, because all progression is from exteriors to interiors, as from scientifics to intellectual truths, the exte- rior serving as a plane of the interiors, 5906. As the internal and heaven are together, so the hells are in externals, and the external man is necessarily in hell, until he becomes spiritual by regeneration, 6322, 10,156, 10,489. The hells are opened to man according to the exi- gency and necessity of his external loves, 10,483. The external man is in the form of hell, even as to the scientifics of his memory, until they are disposed by the Lord in the form of heaven, 5700. In conse- quence of the regeneration of the external being necessary, to be in externals is to be in a state of labour and combat, 92/8. The form of heaven may be simulated in externals when the internals are evil, which is the ground of the commandment not to make the likeness of any- thing. &c., 8869, 8870. The appearance of truth in externals which are internally denied, signified by the pictured images of the Chaldeans, 9828. The studious imitation of divine things in externals further illustrated by the phantasmagoria of celestial scenes, palaces, &c., amongst infernal spirits, 10,284, 10,286. Seriatim passages contain- jno- a summary view of the external and internal man in apposition with ea?h other, 9701—9709, 9796-9803. See Man. The darkness in which the external live, their selfish and woridly loves, their terrestrial and corporeal ideas of all things, 10,134, 10,396, 10,400, 10,407, 10,411, 10,412, 10,422, 10,429, 10,472, 10,582. As to the external man of the Lord as an image of the three heavens, and the image of the heavens in man, 1590, 6013. See Lord. 3. In respect to worship, the church, ^c. The church is necessa- rily both internal and external, because man is such, 1083. Before re- generation he is led by the externals of the church to internals, and after he becomes regenerate all the things of the internal man are terminated in externals, 1083. External worship without internal is only a fooUsh babbling, and often conceals the most abominable wicked- ness, 1094, 1102. There are two classes of men who are in external worship, namely, such as have charity and conscience, whose external worship is therefore imbued with internal, and such as make worship consist wholly in externals; the latter are signified by Ham and Canaan, 1083, 1098, 1200. All external or ritual worship corresponds with in- ternal worship in the case of those who are in charity, 1 100, 1 151, 1 153. Those who live in charity without knowing anything of the internal man, constitute the external church, 1100, 6587. To suppose there EXT 183 can be no true worship without the outward form, is to make worship consist in externals; illustrated by the rise of Babylon in the person of Nimrod, 1175. Such worship becomes more profane, the more those who practise it are principled in the love of self and the world, 1 182, 1326. See Babel. All external worship is the formal of essential worship, which consists in profound adoration and humiliation of heart before the Lord, and in charity towards the neighbour, 1175, 1153. Man while he is in the world ought also to be in external worship, be- cause he is thus imbued with knowledges, and a state of sanctity is induced upon him calculated to prepare him for the reception of influx from heaven, 1618. Unless the life after death is believed in, worship can only be external, 1200. External worship without internal is worse than no church, for it is idolatry, 1242. The differences of external worship and even of doctrines, does not hinder the church being one, because internal worship or love and charity are always one, 809, 1083, 1285, 1316, 1798, 1799, 1834, 1844, 2385, 2982, 3267, 3445, 3451, 3452, 6269, 6272. The external church is the procurator or adminis- trator of the internal, and like the external man is nothing but a dead body unless the internal vivify it, 1795. External worship was insti- tuted as a means of preventing the profanation of internal things, 308, 1327, 1328. The most ancient church had no external worship, nor could they have had it unless their internals had been closed, 4493. The externals of the ancient church were representative, because they corresponded with internal worship; not so in the case of the Jewish church, 4288, 4680. As to internals, the Christian church is the same as the ancient church and the Jewish, but it differs in externals, 1063, 3478, 4772. Churches and societies, and individuals in societies, ne- cessarily differ as to truths and externals, but they become one in willing and doing good, 3451. The affection of charity which seeks the good of others without the thought of reward, is the internal of the church ; to will and do such good from the truth, that is, because it is com- manded in the Word, is the external, 6299, ill. 9404. The chief ritual of the Christian church was instituted because the greatest part of man- kind are in external worship, 2165, 4700. The church may be with a nation where it is instituted in externals, but it is not in them, nor they m it, unless they are internally in the church, 4899. Before the coming of the Lord men were led away from the loves of self and the worid, thus into the church internally, by externals which were repre- sentative, but these were abolished by the Lord and the internals themselves made known, 4904. In place of all the externals which were thus abolished, the two memorials of baptism and the holy supper were appointed, 4904. With those who assist at the holy supper in a state of holy thought, there is an influx of the good of love and charity which conjoins them with heaven, even though they do not understand its signification, 6789. See Supper. But there is no personal con- junction bv means of externals, not even by the externals of the Word separate from internals, ilL 9379, 9380. Divine truth is eminently A ^° I external form, because it contains all the interiors in their order, thus the external is holy by reason of the internal, and more eminently so because good and truth are in their strength and power in ultimates ill and sh. 9824, 9836. Truths are relatively in externals, good in the internal, ill. 7910. Hence external things in the heavens 181 EXT and also with man correspond to truths, ill, and sh. 9959. The exter- nal of the Word, of the church, and of worship separate from the in- ternal, was represented by the apostacy of Aaron and the sons of Israel when Moses was absent, 10,397, 10,422, 10,683. Moses represented the external as receptive of the internal, thus the external with the Divine in it, 10,607, 10,614, 10,627. The external sense of the Word is like a table or plane in which is written the internal sense; hence the external sense could be changed and adapted to the state of the Jewish people, while the interior writing or Word of God continued the same, ill, and sh. 10,453, 10,603, 10,604. By this change, the genuine ex- ternal sense was destroyed, 10,461. The Jews also were not in genuine externals, but remote from them, 10,545, 10,548—10,552. They who are in externals, who love themselves above all things, worship them- selves instead of God, for they look downwards and outwards to their own loves, 10,407, 10,412,10,422. To be in externals is to worship externals as holy without the acknowledgment and love of God, 10,602. Whether it be called the external of worship and the church, or hell, it is the same thing, for they who are in external worship without internal are in the loves of self and the world, and these loves are from hell, 10,546. They who are in the internal of the Word, of the church, and of worship, love to do the truth for the sake of the truth from internal affection, thus from spiritual affection; they who are in the correspond- ing externals, love the truth for the sake of the truth from external or natural affection; they who are in separate externals love the truth on account of the advantages they derive from it, 10,683. They who are in externals separate from internals, have the truth of faith in obscurity, and are in falses of faith originating from their material, terrestrial, and corporeal ideas, believing the Word everywhere according to the letter, and not according to its interior sense, thus without doctrine, 10,582. All instruction and doctrine, indeed, is given by the external of the Word, because it contains all the interiors, but only to those who are in illustration when they read the Word, for then light from heaven flows into them by the internal sense, 10,548. See Worship, Church, Doctrine, Word. EXTREME, Extremity [extremay extremitaa]. The end or ex- tremity, called also the circuit or border, is where the representation expires ; it denotes a little, 2936. It also denotes what is more exterior, as the body, in the midst of which is the soul, 2973. See Midst. The extremes of divine order and influx are in the gestures, actions, looks, and sensations of the human body, 3632. The extremes of the natural man are the sensual things in which the natural mind terminates, and which are of two kinds, voluntaiy and intellectual, 4009, 5077, 5078, 5081, 5084, 5089, 5094, 5125, 5128, 5580, 5767, 5774, 6183, 6201, 6310—6318, 6564, 6598, 6612, 6622, 6844, 6845, 6948, 6949, 7442, 7643, 7645, 7693, 9212, 9216, 9331. See Sense. From one end or extreme of heaven to the other end or extreme denotes the church internal and external, 4060. The end of days denotes the last state, in which truths and goods in general are together when in their order, 6337. From end to end denotes extension through the whole, 6147 ; thus, from the beginning or first end to the last, sh, 9666. Extremity is predicated of good, length of truth, 9666. From extremity to extre- mity denotes all things and every where, 9666, 8613, 9836, 9886, 9887, EYE 185 9890. The two ends of the mercy-seat over which the cherubim were expanded signify celestial and spiritual good, 95 1 1 . The extremities of a superior degree are the intermediates with respect to a lower, 8796. See Medium, Extension. The extremities of the human body, which are the hands and feet, signify the whole man, 10,044, 10,241. EYE [oculu8.'] Properly speaking, the eye is nothing but the sight of the spint produced to externals, 1806. The natural eye could never discern any object except by influx from interior sight, thus it is not the eye but the spirit that sees, 1954, 3679. It denotes the interior sight or understandmg, 2148, 2701 ; consequently, perception, advertence, and many thmgs that are predicable of interior sight, 5304. The eves bemg opened denotes knowledge and acknowledgment from an internal dictate, 212, 9266. See Dictate. To see, is to acknowledge, to un- derstand, to have faith, 897, 1584, 1806, 1807, 2150, 2325, 2701. 2807, 3764, 3863, 3869, 4567, 4723, 5114, 5286, 5400, 6032, 6249. 6256, 6805, 8688, 9128, 9266. See to See. To lift up the eyes is to see and perceive interior things, interiors being denoted by what is high or superior, 2148. In the case of the Lord it signifies divine thought and intuition, 2789, 2829. In the case of the external man, illumination, 1584, 2150. To lift up the eyes and see signifies thought and intention, 3198, 3202, 4339 ; consequently perception, 4083. The imperative form, lift up thine eyes and see, denotes advertence from the propnum, 4086. To lift up the eves therefore denotes reflection, for to advert is to intend intellectual sight, 5684. It denotes intuition, perception, and thought, 8160. In the eyes or sight of any one, signi- fies before the rational mind, 2403 ; in the supreme sense, before omni- science, 2572. It denotes the apperception of the quahty, 3529, 3827. Thus, what appears to the understanding, 2975, 5484, 7331. God is said to open the eyes when he illustrates the interior sight or under- standing by influx into the rational mind, 2701. To have eyes and not to see is not to will to understand and believe, 2701. He whose life and will are only exterior sees nothing but darkness in internal things ; his internal eye or understanding being so formed that it opens when he looks downwards, and closes when he looks upwards, 3438. Weak- eyed signifies feebleness and indecision of the understanding, which is characteristic of those who are in external truths, 3820. As things heard are seen interiorly, hearing as well as sight denotes what is un- derstood, but the sight affects the intellectual part only, hearing the will and the intellect, 3869. In the supreme sense the ear denotes Provi- dence, the eye foresight, sh, 3869 ; compare 8688 ; seriatim passages on the eye and on light, and their correspondence, 4403 — 4420, 4523 —-4533. The spirits who correspond to the eyes are intelligent and wise, 4403. The heavens in which paradisiacal scenes are represented correspond to the chamber of the eye, and such scenes originate in the discourse of the superior angels concerning intellectual truth, 4528. The sense of sight corresponds to the affection of understanding and growing wise, 4404—4406. The affections are representatively effigied in the face, the more interior affections in the eyes, which sparkle with light according to the affection of the thought, 4407. As the sight of the eye corresponds to intellectual sight, it corresponds also to truths, 4409, 4526. In consequence of distinct influx into the two hemispheres of the brain, the sight of the left eye corresponds to the truths of faith. 186 FAC that of the right eye to the goods of faith, 4410, ah, 2701 ; and in the opposite sense, 8910: see below, 6923. The humours and tunics of the eye have also a distinct correspondence, and with a difference in respect to each of the three heavens, 4411. The author's experience by means of influx, 4412. The ear is formed correspondently to the modifications of the air and of sound, the eye to the modifications of ether and light, 4523, 6057. The sight of the eye corresponds to in- tellectual sight and to the goods and truths of faith, because the light of the world corresponds to the light of heaven, which flows into it by the human understanding, 4526. The eye, or rather its sight, cor- responds more especially to those societies in the other life which are in paradisiacal appearances ; some of those heavens described, 4528, and citations; compare 441 1, 9577. The left eye corresponds to the know- ledge of abstract or intellectual things, the right eye to such as are of wisdom, 6923; compare 4327. The four beasts full of eyes before and behind, signify intellectual truths from the divine in heaven, and their conjunction with the voluntary part, 5313. To set the eye on any one denotes communication and influx, 5810. To put the hand upon the eyes of one dying, signifies to vivify, for it is hereby understood that the external sensuals are closed and the internal opened, thus, that ele- vation and vivification are effected, 6008. The external sensuals are formed correspondently with universal nature, the internal to the image of heaven, 6059. The internal eye sees from the light of heaven and scans the natural man, as the eye of the body regards outward objects, 6068. Spirits can only be seen by the internal eye, which, for many reasons, is not opened at this day while man is yet in the body, 5849, 9577. The eyes being dim signifies obscurity of apperception, 6256. The eyes red with wine denotes the intellectual part nothing but good ; in the supreme sense, the internal human, 6379. Before the eyes of the Lord denotes a life of faith in him, for where the goods and truths of faith and of love are, the Lord is present, 8361, 10,569. Jehovah descending in the sight [arf oculos] of all the people, denotes his influx into the understanding, thus the perception of faith and illustration, 8792. Their eye not sparing the sons (Isaiah xiii. 18) denotes that those who understand truths extinguish them, 8902. As the eye denotes the understanding, it denotes both the truths and the falses of faith ; the law of retaliation explained, * eye for eye,' 905 1 ; and the law for injuring the eye of a man-servant or maid-servant, 9058 — 9061. To find grace in the eyes of Jehovah is to be received, 10,563, 10,569. When predicated of men who receive the divine of the Lord, the eye signifies the understanding and faith, or truth as received in the under- standing; thus the understanding and faith in illustration, 10,569. When predicated of the Lord, it signifies his divine presence in the truths of faith and the goods of love, 10,569. See to See, Vision. F. FACE [fades], 1. The faces or face signifies the interiors, be- cause the interiors of the mind manifest themselves by the face, 358, 1933, 1999, 2219, 2327, 2434, 3527, 3573, 4066, 4299, 4396, 4796, 4866, 5100, 5565, 5585, 5695, 6848, 6849, 9306, 9546. With those FAC 187 who do not simulate, the rational or spiritual life manifests itself by the face, as to good by a certain fire of life, and as to truth by its light, 3527. The good is manifested by the blood and its redness, the truth by the form thence resulting and its fairness, 3527. The natural mind as to good is manifested by the hair, as to truth by the scales, 3527. As the face manifests the natural mind, so the latter ought to manifest the rational, 3573, see below, 5118, 5165. The face denotes the state of thought or the state of affection, for it is nothing but the representa- tive image of the affections and thoughts thence derived, 4066, 5102. In the most ancient times the face acted in unity with the interiors, and those who simulated were cast out of society as devils, 3573. The proximate cause of this state was the involuntary sense of the cerebel- lum showing itself in the face by fibres derived therefrom ; these were supplanted in course of time by fibres from the cerebrum, and governed by them, 4326. The face in general corresponds to all the interiors, both evil and good, and also as to the will and understanding, 2219, 4796. With the angels, all the interior affections shine forth from the face, insomuch that the face is their external form and representative image, 4796. Changes of the state of the affections appear in the faces of the angels according to the societies into which they come, but the genuine faces are still recognizable, 4797. Such changes were mani- fested to the author from one limit of the affections to the other, rang- ing also from infancy to adult age, 4797, 6^04. It was hereby shown that man is truly human in so far as the expression of infancy is retained to adult age. and no further, 4797. The faces of evil spirits also mani- fest the state of their interiors, and with what hells they communicate, 4798, 5717. There are spirits who have so little of spiritual life remaining that they do not appear with any face when seen in the light of heaven, but only with teeth, 5565 ; compare 5057. Description of certain spirits from another orb, who discoursed by changes of the face, principally about the lips, 4799, 5189, compare 1762. Their faces were open and ingenuous, by reason that they used no simulation, 4799. The inhabitants of Jupiter also discourse by the face, and their faces glow with sincerity and modesty, 8242. They have an idea that the face is mind in form, not body, 8243. The same idea is entertained by the inhabitants of one of the earths in the starry heavens, 10,315. The manner in which they discourse by the face, ex. 8247, 8248. The most ancient inhabitants of this earth also held discourse by the face ; concerning its superior excellence to discourse by words of speech, 8249. Discourse by words of speech succeeded ; and then the face was changed ; the interiors of the mind were contracted and void of life ; whilst the exterior was inflamed by the fire of self-love, and was ready to assume pretended appearances, 8250. The inhabitants of Jupiter continually keep the face directed forward, never downwards, 8372. When they lie down, they turn their faces to the chamber, not to the wall, 8376. See Jupiter. The face is actually contracted from within by speaking and acting in contrariety to the thought and will, 4799, 8247. The influx of spirits into the muscles of the face demonstrated, a face being effigied by their influx, &c., 3631, 4800. The faces of men are seen by the angels in a form which exactly manifests their affections and thoughts, and not as they appear in the body; these are the genuine living faces which, when man passes out of the world, put off 188 FAC F AC 189 the material face as somewhat dead, 5102. The natural mind is as a face or faces representative of the spiritual things of the internal man, that is to say when they correspond together, 5118, compare 3573. The faces of spirits and angels are formed according to the exterior natural mind, which is an interior face, in which the intentions or ends image themselves, as affections and thoughts in the face of the body, 5165, 5168. The face is so formed that a person may discover by it what is the disposition of another towards him ; with the ancients the face corresponded to the interiors, as it does with the angels, for they think nothing but good, 5695. Inasmuch as affections and thoughts are denoted by faces, it signifies also desires ; and hence evil with your faces (or before you) denotes that there is no good in the desires, 7666, compare 5102. In like manner the parts and functions of the face correspond to various things of affection, as the eye to the understand- ing of truth, &c., 9048. See the seriatim passages on the correspond- ence of the eye and light, 4403—4421; the nostrils and smell, 4622— 4634; the ears and hearing, 4652 — 4660; and on the tongue and the sense of taste, and the face generally, 4791 — 4805. In general terms, the face signifies all the interiors of man, thus the affections, as those of grace, of favour, of benevolence, of aid, and the contrary of these, as inclemency, anger and revenge; hence whatsoever is in the person himself and from him; on this account the word is of so wide applica- tion in the original Hebrew, ill. 9306. 2. The faces of the abyss denotes the cupidities and falses in which man is, 18. The faces of the waters, the knowledges of good and truth remaining with him, 19. Also truths from heaven, 10,465; and in the opposite sense falses, 789. The faces of the ground denotes man's state when the goods and truths of faith can be inseminated, 872, 566, 90, 91. To be dispersed upon the faces of the earth denotes not to be received and acknowledged, 1309. Hiding from the faces of Jehovah denotes the evil fearing the dictate of conscience, 222. The face or countenance being lifted up signifies that man is in charity; its falling, that there is no charity with him, 358, 363. It was customary with the ancients to fall upon their faces when they adored in token of inte- rior humiliation, 1999; and also to bow with their faces to the ground, 2327. Truth is as the face of good, and the variations of truth by which it becomes manifest are as numerous as the varieties in the human countenance, 3804. The faces of the cherubim one towards the other denotes the mutual intuition and conjunction of truth and good, 95 1 6. Haran dying on the faces of his father Terah denotes the obli- teration of interior worship, and its becoming idolatrous, 1366. The angels looking to the faces of Sodom, the evil interiors discovered, 2219, 2456. Ishmael falHng upon the faces of all his brethren (dying), the end of that representation in contentions concerning truth, 3277. Thamar veiling her face, that interior truths could never be discovered to the Jewish nation, 4859 — 4866. Moses covering his face, that the interiors of the church, of the Word, and of worship could never be known to them, 10,701. Rebecca veiling herself, the appearances of truth first discovered to the rational man, 3207. 3. When predicated of Jehovah or the Lord, faces or face signifies mercy, peace and all good, 222, 223, 358, 387, 2434, 4369, 5585, 5706, 7599, 8867, 9306, 9545, 9546. Thus it denotes heaven itself. or the Lord's presence with men and angels, who receive these gifts, 9545, 9546; compare 10,577. Strictly, the faces of Jehovah denotes the divine love, 5585, 9212, ill, 9936; or the divine good of the divine love, and the divine truth of that good, sh, 9306. In the opposite sense the faces of Jehovah denotes the contrary of love, mercy, peace, &c.; thus wrath and punishment, sh. 9306. The Lord lifting up his face or countenance upon any one denotes that he is gifted with charity from the divine affection of love, 358, 4796. To cause his face to shme signifies that he has compassion; to elevate his faces, that he gives peace, and all from mercy, 5585. Not to see his face, or the hiding of his face, denotes that there is no compassion, thus no mercy and conjunction, 5585, 5592, 5816, 5823. How it verges upon the signification of faces in the opposite sense, 7599. To see the faces of God, or to see God faces to faces, signifies the sustaining of the most grievous temptations apparently from the divine, by approaching him interiorly, 4298; ill, 4299. It is said that no one can see Jehovah face to face and live, on account of the contrariety between the evils and falses of man, and the holy good and truth of the Lord, 4299; ill, 6849. I have seen God faces to faces, in the internal historical sense, denotes that he was only representatively present, and not as he is with the regenerate, 4311. The divine itself can never appear by any face, but only the divine human ; hence the angel of faces denotes the divine mercy in the Lord's divine human, 5585. To cover the face at the sight of God signifies the interiors protected, lest the pre- sence of the divine should injure them, ill. 6848, 6849. To turn away the face is predicated of Jehovah, but it is man that turns him- self away, not the Lord, 7599, 10,579, 223. They who are in good from the Lord turn the face continually to him, 9517; ill, 10,189, 10,420. Over against the face or in front, when heaven is signified,' denotes what is eternal, being perpetually in sight of the Lord, 9888, 9894. Jehovah's speaking face to face with Moses denotes the con- junction of the divine internal and the divine external of the Word, 10,554. The face of Jehovah denotes the divine interiors of the Word' of the church, and of worship, 10,567, 10,568, 10,579. The Lord in heaven is the face of Jehovah, by which alone he can be seen and approached, sh, 10,579. The face of Jehovah is the divine truth in heaven, thus also mercy, peace, and every good, 10,579. The Lord as to celestial good is denoted by the shew-bread, or bread of faces on the table, 9545. FACES OF THE WATERS [fades aquarum]. See Face (2). FACULTY ]/acullas], Man has two distinct faculties, will and understanding, 2930, 5194, 5835, 6148; ill, 9050, 9835. Originally the will and the understanding made one, which was the characteristic of the celestial church, but they are now separated, which is the cha- ractenstic of the spiritual church, 2930, 5835. These two faculties are receptivities of spiritual heat and light, which are love and wisdom or good and truth, 5194, 9835. By regeneration these two faculties are conjoined again, so that the regenerate are made truly men, 5835, 9050. Man would have no faculty for the reception either of truth or good, if the good of love did not flow in from the Lord, 6148. The faculty of receiving the influx of good from the Lord is formed where it can flow out again, thus in the external man, 5828, 6148. The faculty of 190 F AC F AI 191 reception is good itself, and is denoted by substance, 4105. All the human faculties are included in good and innocence, for it is from inno- cence that good is good, and from good that truth is truth, 2526. Among the eminent faculties developed in man after his separation from the body is that of perceiving the signification of representatives; and also of expressing in a single moment what it would take hours to ex- plain in this world, 3226. The state and faculty of becoming wise is in all good, however simple, 3820, 5527, 5623. The faculty of think- ing compared by the angels to the faculty in the viscera of acting ac- cording to the form of the fibres, from experience, 3317. The faculty of wilHng and thinking constitutes the whole life of man, for it is only into these faculties that life flows, 4151. The faculty of imagination and perception is duplex, for it is excitable by the light of the world and the light of heaven, hence the genius and argumentative powers of many who are in no illustration, because not in good, 4214. The inte- rior man is in the faculty and potency of correcting the exterior, and not of wiUing and thinking what the latter sees from his phantasy and appetites from cupidity, 5127. The faculty of receiving truth is pro- portionate to the reception of good, because the Lord flows in with good and with that faculty at the same time, 5623. The faculty of wide contemplation, or intuition of universal ideas, does not hinder the distinct perception of particulars ; such is the common voluntary sense enjoyed by the more wise, 4329, 5527. The measures of the various faculties of understanding and perception are proportionate to the eleva- tion of the thought above sensual things, thus to the degree of intui- tion from interiors, 6598. Those who are undergoing regeneration are introduced into angelic societies, and are continually acquiring a faculty of more extensive and more elevated perception, 6611, 6612. See Extension. With those who are not regenerating, the interiors are only so far manifest as they sustain the faculty of confirming evils by means of falses, ill. 7442, 9256. Every one has his measure or capa- city, which can only be filled either with goods and truths, or^with evils and falses ; that measure is his faculty of reception, ill, 7984. Those only are in the faculty of receiving goods and truths who live a life of charity, and all such are saved notwithstanding the infestations and temptations to which they are subject, 8321. Charity, however, is not saving on its own account, but in virtue of its yielding to divme influx, which faith without charity will not, 8321. The faculty is con- tained in good, but it only comes into any determinate operation by truth, and when so determined it becomes an actual potency, 9643. The faculty of receiving the threefold influx of heaven consists in the voluntary, the intellectual, and the scientific forms of man ; the volun- tary part receives celestial influx or good, the intellectual, spiritual influx or truth, and the scientific, from which depend external thought and imagination, closes these together, 9915; compare 978. The faculty of knowing, of thinking, and of understanding is derived from intellec- tual truth, which is like a light flowing in by way of the internal man, and illustrating all that it meets with in the external memory, 1901 — 1906. This light confers upon every one the faculty of perceiving divine truths in proportion as he desists from evils, 9399; compare 6598. See Thought. As to the inversion of the faculties below the internal man by reason of hereditary evil, 1902, 1999. See Evil (2). FAITH Ifides-] 1. What faith is.

By faith, when distinguished from charit/ is meant 192 FAI F AI 193 the truth of doctrine, like that of the Apostles* Creed for example, and according to the common acceptation of the term, for saving faith is believed to be the faith that men have in truths, 3868; compare 4690. There are few who know that faith is confidence, and among those still fewer who know that faith or confidence is from charity, 3868. Truth and faith are expressed by the same word in the Hebrew tongue ; and truth in the ancient church is the same as faith in the new, 4690. To have faith spiritually is expressed in the historical parts of the Word by believing or confiding in regard to natural things, ill, 6970. Faith in an eminent sense is confidence, 6272, 9242. Faith is an internal affection for truth and good, not for the sake of doctrine, but for the sake of life, 8034. Faith insinuated exter- nally, as a faith grounded in miracles or depending on authority, is merely natural, and sometimes sensual ; thus it cannot be ascribed to the Lord ; but if there be the truth of innocence in it, that is from him, and is accepted, 8078; compare 4047, 7290. Faith is made spi- ritual by the affection of truth and good, for in this case man is illus- trated by the Lord according to the quality of his affection, or his end in learning the truth, when he reads the Word, 8078. Faith can only accord with the life ; if the life is evil, it is a faith in the false princi- ples of evil, and tends to hell, thus it is a damned faith, 7778, 7766. Every one who thinks rightly may know that the life of faith constitutes the spiritual man, but then it must be the life of his love, 7779. Faith never becomes faith until man wills the goods and uses to which it leads, and from willing does them, ill. 9224. The faith that saves is to believe in God, which is to know and to do, but to believe in what is from God, which is to know and not to do, is not saving, 9239, 9243. A genuine faith or confidence cannot be had by those who are not in charity, for their hearts are not towards God, but towards them- selves and the world, 9240, 924 1 . The appearance of confidence and faith with such at the hour of death and in sickness arises from self- love and the fear of hell, 9242, 9243. All who are in celestial love have confidence that they are saved by the Lord ; this faith or confi- dence of theirs briefly expounded, 9244. See Love, Charity. The Lord so often asked concerning faith when he healed the sick, because the acknowledgment of the Lord, and that all salvation is from him, is the first principle and beginning in man of life proceeding from the divine, sh. 10,083. 2. Its connection with truth. The spiritual angels confirm faith by intellectual, rational, and scientific truths, but they never conclude from these concerning faith, 203. The celestial love which continually flows in from the Lord can only be received in truths, 2046. Conscience itself is formed by the truths of faith, and it is by the conscience of what is true and right that man becomes regenerate, 2046. They who are simple-minded, and live according to the common truths of the moral law, are easily imbued with the truths of faith, if not in this life, in the next, 2049. The doctrinals or knowledges of faith are highly necessary to form the life of charity, insomuch that there can be no life of faith without them, 2049. The truths of faith are never really acknowledged as truths unless they are implanted in charity, 2049. It is by the truths of faith that man proceeds to conjunction with the Lord, for they are the vessels into which He flows with good. and thus gifts the man with conscience, 2063, 2189. See Vessels. The good of life, or the common good of the Gentiles, is as the field or ground in which the truths of faith are inseminated, 3310. Man*s regeneration is effected by the insinuation of truths into the good of life, and according to the quantity and quality of such truth is his internal good or charity, 2189, 2190. Goods are actually born and formed by the truths of faith, which enter by myriads of myriads into his state as to goodness and holiness, 2190. They are saved who are affected with the truths of faith for the sake of good ; the whole life of faith is nothing but this, 2442. Inasmuch as the truths of faith are implanted in charity while man is regenerating, it appears as if he were regenerated by truth, but truths derive all their life from good, 2189, 2697. It is the influx of good or charity, like the genial heat of the sun, which makes the truths of faith inseminated in the exter- nal man flourish and multiply, 1016. The truths of faith effect en- trance into the memory through some delight of the affections, other- wise they are not received, 1484, 1487, 3040, 3066; ill. 3336, 4018, 5893. They recur to the memory as often as the affection recurs, and take their place in series with many similar truths and affections, 3336, 5893. The affections with which truths are thus conjoined and associ- ated spring from the love of the Lord and the neighbour as their foun- tam-head, 4018. Unless the truths of faith are conjoined with the good of the rational man they can have no life in them, ill. 3146. The truths of faith cannot penetrate inwardly where there is incredulity, for incredulity as it were limits and drives away truth, even when a man thinks he believes, 3399. The truths of faith cannot be accepted and conjoined to good except with those who are in the good of charity or love, ill. 4368. They cannot be conjoined because there is not one end to which they all tend, and the falses of evil always enter and sepa- rate them, 5440. When conjoined by good they constitute a fraternity, as represented by the sons of Israel, 5440. Not only the confidence of faith, but the truths of faith are insinuated by the Lord, though it appears as if they were procured by man, 5664^. They are procurable by man as mere knowledge or things of the memory without such influx, and hence even the worst of men can know them; but it is one thing to know and another to believe, 5664^. They who receive the truths of faith from the Lord intend nothing else by them but uses or exer- cises of charity, 5664^. Unless the truth of faith become the good of faith by willing and acting it, it is of no use, and is dissipated in the other life, 5820. Scientifics and truths that are not believed are rejected to the sides or ultimates, thus they are the lowest things, 5886. In things spiritual beginning is to be derived from the truths of faith, not from scientifics ; if from the latter, man is led into falses and negatives, 6047. Commencement is to be made from the doctrinals of the church, then the Word is to be scrutinized from the affection of knowing truth, otherwise all truth would be accepted as genuine from the soil in which it is propagated, and from its birth-place, or because the teachers of the several churches represented it as true ; afterwards it is allowable to confirm those truths by scientifics, 6047. Scientifics of every name and nature are not to be rejected, but con- joined to the truths of faith, and this by the prior way of faith, in which the affirmative reigns universally, 6047. See Science. The truths o 194 FAI FAI 195 of faith effect nothing unless charity be insinuated into them by the Lord; evils also are in the continual effort to falsify truths, 7342. The truths of faith are falsified in essentials by holding that faith without charity is saving, even at the last hour of life ; and from essential fal- sifications are derived secondary falsifications which affect the neigh- bour; from these, others still more remote, and so on in series, 7779. The truths of faith are terminated in material ideas derived from the world both with the good and the evil; but in the one case they illus- trate them, and assume a beautiful form, in the other they are immersed in them and deformed by them, 7506. Faith being the very initiament of spiritual life, care is to be taken lest it be extinguished; hence the principles of faith received by those who are not illustrated, even though they may be untrue, are not to be rejected without the fullest intuition, 9039. The spiritual church consists of two classes, — those who are in the truths of faith or doctrine only, who are signified by the servants of Israel, and those who are in the affection of charity corresponding thereto, signified by the freemen, 8974. They are servants who do good from the obedience of faith, and not from the affection of charity, 8987, 8988, 899 1 . See Obedience. The same difference exists between the truths of faith themselves and the good of charity, for the former are intended to introduce the man of the church into the latter, thus to minister and serve, 8974. They who are only in the truths of faith, and not in good according to those truths, are in the ultimates of heaven, and constitute the skin, 8980. Good cannot be conjoined to those who are only in the truths of faith, but only occasionally adjoined as a nieans of confirming such truths; illustrated by the contrast of concubinage and the marriage of good and truth, 8981, 8983. Both the amend- ment or the purification of man and his regeneration can only be effected by the truths of faith, influx from the Lord being into what man knows ; illustrated by ablutions and baptism, 9088. The life of truths or faith is from good, and good has its form, thus its quality from truth, illus- trated by a fibre containing the animal spirit, and a vessel in which is blood, 9154, 8530. Many of the learned who were acquainted with the truths of faith are in hell, while others who were not in truths, indeed, who were in falses, are in heaven ; the reason is, that the former were not in good, sh, 9192. Truth desires good, that is, it desires to do good and be conjoined to good, ill. 9206; sh, 9207. The truths of faith are all that a man knows of spiritual things, and they become the goods of faith when some end or use is entertained in such know- ledge; with the regenerate man the goods of faith are succeeded by the goods of charity, 9230. The truths of faith are received in the understanding, the good of charity in the will, ill. 9300. They re- spectively make the life of the understanding and the life of the will, which with the regenerate constitute one mind, 9300. The case argued with those who hold that the truths of faith are simply to be believed, because the natural man cannot understand them, 9300. The Lord enters by the life or soul into the truths of faith; hence there is no conjunction with the Lord unless the life accord with them, 9380. They who possess the truths of faith only in the external memory wander about in the other life among rocky places and woods; they who possess them in the interior memory among cultivated hills and gardens, 9841. The truths of faith when grounded in love are alive. I for they are what love dictates ; thus they draw their esse from love, ^?1^* . 7^^y *^® affections of the life, and exist together in the order of families; but there are secondary truths situated more remotely, which serve for their confirmation, 9841. See Truth, Good, Rege- NERATION. ^ 3. Its connection with charity. Love and faith make one in the mternal man, as heat and light in the external, and can never be sepa- rated, 30, 34. The only life is the life of love, and the angels know of no faith but the faith of love, 32. Those who are in the life of love are also m faith, for faith is the proceeding of love, 34. They acknowledged no faith in the most ancient church but the faith of love and were even unwilling to name faith, 32, 393. After being separated and thus converted into doctrine, it was preserved in order that charity might be restored by it, 394—396. Charity and faith ought not only to be together, but charity ought to have rule over faith, 363, 364. Ihe brotherhood of charity and faith was represented by Abel and *l"{iu ^ ^^*" ^^^ ^^^^^* ^y Manasseh and Ephraim, and by Zarah and Fharez, 367. They in whom faith exists without charity are not likened to brethren, but to fools, 367. Faith without charity is mere knowledge, which even the devils may have, but charity is the saving bond between the Lord and man, 379, 389. There is no faith without charity, for charity is the goodness of faith, and acknowledgment its verity, 654. There is no reality and holiness in faith unless it be the offspring of charity ; for the Lord is in love or charity, and man himself m faith separated therefrom, 724, 904. The operation of the Lord by means of charity or conscience produces faith; hence these things are inseparable, 896, 1076, 1077, 1162. In heaven all are regarded from chanty and the faith thence derived, 1258. The faith of charity, which IS genuine faith, conjoins man to the Lord, and thus the hea- venly kingdom IS for those who are in that faith, ill. 1608. Good works, charity, love to the Lord, and the Lord himself are to be under- ^u ij"/^® ^^""^^^^ ^^°^®^ ^^^^^ ^°^^ V *^® ^^"^^ o^ ^aith» and these should always be within one another, 1873. Man can never be regene- rated by faith without charity, for it is the means by which his new will IS formed, 989, 2046. A true faith can only proceed from the life of charity, otherwise it is only the knowledge of the memory, 1 798, 1 799. The knowledge of the doctrinals of faith is of no account, if men have not charity ; for such knowledge has respect to charity as an end, 2049, 2116. Faith separate from charity is as the light of winter, which produces neither flowers, fruits, nor harvest ; but faith grounded in chanty is as the all-productive light of spring, 2231, 3146, 3412, ^\^c ' i?^** ^^ ^^^^* *" *^® natural worid actually correspond to love and faith in the spiritual, insomuch that their qualities and effects will adniit of a strict comparison, 7082—7084, 7625, 7626. Charity and laith differ from one another as good and truth, or willing well and thinking well, ill, 2231. Truth is not troth without its essence, which is good ; in hke manner faith is not faith without charity, 2429, 2435. The truths of faith do not save, but the goods which are in the truth, 2261. The acknowledgment of troth cannot be given, thus neither faith, unless man be in good, 2261, 2343. Faith is never given but m Its life, which is love and charity, 2343, 2349. The acknowledg- ment and faith of good and the Lord is never given to those who are o 2 196 FAI in the life of evil, but only the knowledge, 2357. No one can be ad- mitted into heaven by thinking only; neither do those who have only thought concerning good and truth suffer themselves to be instructed, because the life of evil opposes, and is not receptive, 2401. They who are principled in the good of charity easily receive the truths of faith in the other life, 2049. The hfe of faith consists in being affected with the truths of faith for the sake of good ; hence they are saved who are in faith, provided there be good in their faith, 2442. The good of charity acknowledges its own truth of faith, and the truth of faith its own good of charity, thus they are always correspondent to each other, 2429, 3101, 3102, 3161, 3179, 3180, 4358, 5835, 9637. The end of the agreement between the state of man as to truth and his state as to good is, that the truth of faith and the good of charity may be conjoined, 3834, 4096, 4097, 4301, 4345, 4353, 4357, 4364, 4368, 5365, 5835, 7623—7627, 7752—7762, 8530. 9258, 10,555. Charity is not genuine unless there be faith, nor faith unless there be charity, 2839. The confidence called saving faith cannot be given except in good of life, 2982, 3868, 4352, 4683, 4689, 5826, 6272, 6578, 9242. They who are principled in love to the Lord, thus in the good of charity and the good of faith, have confidence ; with others, the so-called confidence of faith is spurious, 3938, 5826, 5963, 6578, 7762, 8240, 9241, 9244, 9245. The conjunction of the truth of faith with the good of the rational man is wrought by affection, ill, 3024. The fruits of faith are fruits of good, which is of love and cha- rity, 3146. As light without heat produces nothing, so the truth of faith produces nothing without the good of love, 3146. The spiritual, not having the perception of the celestial man, parts off divine truth from the rational mind, and considers that all good and truth in the latter are of their own proprium ; hence they are willing that things of faith should be simply believed without any rational intuition, 3394. They who make faith essential, not charity, may be in the good of truth, but they are not so in heaven, or conjoined to the Lord, as they who are in the good of charity, 3459. They who do good from faith, and not from charity, are comparatively remote from the Lord, but there is some conjunction of their doctrinals with the internal sense of the Word, 3463. The Word is unclosed when love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour is assumed for the essential, but it is closed when faith is so assumed, 3773. The truths of faith are nothing without the affection of good, ill. 3849. Faith is the external of cha- rity, and charity the internal of faith, 3868. The progress of regene- ration is from externals to internals, by the accession of faith to the will, where it acquires life, for it is only by the new will that the Lord can flow in, 3870. The truths of faith cannot be accepted or conjoined to good, except with those who are in the good of charity and love, ill. 4368. Unless faith be conjoined to good it either becomes no faith or is conjoined to evil, whence comes profanation, 6348. Seriatim passages on the conjunction of good and truth, or of charity and faith, and what is man's quality when they are conjoined, and what his qua- lity when they are not conjoined, 7623—7627, 7752—7762, 7814— 7821, 8033—8037, 8120 — 8124, and before every succeeding chapter. Charity enters by an internal way into man, faith by externals, 7755, 7756. The conjunction of charity and faith is effected in the interior FAI 197 man, where good adopts to itself truth, 7757. By this adoption faith itself becomes charity, 7758. It is charity as to essence, 9783. The ground of its conjunction with charity is its own quality as an internal affection for truth and good, 8034. Before regeneration the life is according to faith, because charity is not yet known from affection, but only from doctrine ; after regeneration it is formed according to the precepts of charity, 8013. Those who are in the former state see truths obscurely and from persuasion concerning the doctrines of their own churches ; they who are in the latter state are in clear perception, and see truths from illustration, 8013. They who are principled in charity are humble and willing to be the lowest ; they who are in faith, proud and desirous of acquiring power, 8313. Various comparisons illustrating the difference between charity as the life of faith, and faith as the form and vessel of charity, 8530. The understanding is the recipient of the truths of faith, and the will of the good of charity, ill. 9300, 9930, 10,064. Hence charity and faith separated from one another are like the will and understanding separated from one another, and there is nothing of which heaven and the church can be predicated unless they make one, 10,555. See Charity. The fruits of faith, as they are called, are its very principium, thus its first and last end, *A. 9337. See Fruit, First. 4. Faith without charity. They who separate faith from love do not even know what faith is, for they suppose it to be mere thought grounded in certain doctrines, while it consists especially in obedience, 36. Those who separate faith from love, also separate it from charity which is the offspring of love ; how the love of self conspires with it in this case, 362. When charity is disjoined from faith, the Lord is also disjoined, and whatever a man then thinks is false, whatever he wills, evil, 389. Faith can never conjoin the Lord and man without charity, for so it is mere knowledge and thought, which the devils themselves have, 379. When faith was first separated from charity in ancient times it was provided that it should be the means of acquiring charity again, illustrated by the preservation of Cain, 394. On this account, faith is inviolable even when so separated, 395, 396. When faith is separated from charity, it is occupied by man himself with his worldly loves in place of the Lord, and hence it is unsanctified, 724. Faith with a man without charity is like a bird hovering about a corpse, 916, 1834. They who have faith without charity procure to themselves a false conscience, so that they continue to Uve in their evils, and still hope to be saved ; hence the present state of the Christian world, 916. They who make faith alone essential to salvation do not even care about charity, and do not see, as it were, the many things that the Lord said concerning it, 1017. Conscience and charity are inseparable, but they who separate faith from charity have no conscience, 1076, 1077. Their notions of justification by faith are vain and illusory, ill. 2116. There is no salvation by faith without life, for such faith only pertains to the thought, and all thought that is not grounded in life perishes, 2228, 240 1 . Faith at the present day is of such a nature as to extinguish and pervert all perception of love to the Lord, and charity towards the neighbour, 2343. With those who establish as a principle that faith alone is saving, truths themselves are contaminated by falses, and they at length lose all power of perceiving truth, 2383, 2385. Faith was 198 FAI first separated from charity when man began to indulge in self-love and hatred of others, for they then began to look to the doctrines of their reUgion for salvation, and to distinguish them as their faith, 2231. They who are led to think from doctrine that faith alone saves, and are yet in the good of life, thus, who are Christians in heart, are in the Lord's spiritual kingdom, 2442, 3242, 3459, 3463, ill, 7506, 7507. Without charity at all faith is no faith, but only the science of the knowledges of faith, and in the other life it perishes, 654, 724, 1162, 1176, 2049, 2116, 2228, 2349, 3849, 3868, 5820, 6348, 7039, 7766, 7778. The life of faith remains, but not the doctrine of faith without life, 3242. The doctrinals of faith alone are destructive of charity, 6353, 8094. They who separate faith from charity cast themselves into falses and evils ; the state of such was represented by Cain, by Ham, by Canaan, by Reuben, by the first-born of the Egyptians, by the PhiUstines, and by Tyre and Zidon, 3325, 8093, and citations, 7097, 7317. The errors and falses into which they cast themselves exemplified, 4721, 4730, 4776, 4783, 4925, 7779, 8313, 8765, 9224. They who are in faith alone appear in light, but in the light of winter, which is turned into darkness, so that the mind is stupified when they approach towards heaven, 3412, 3413, from experience 4416. Hence, a state of no faith is signified by evening and night, 22, 709. They who are not in charity but only in the science of the knowledges of faith have no per- ception of the internal sense of the Word which treats of love and charity, 3416. They deny the internal sense, because they make faith the es- sential of the church, and call good the fruit of faith ; when yet love to the Lord is the tree of life, charity and good works are the fruit thence derived, and faith and the things of faith its leaves, 3427, 4663. The word is closed to such because all the law and the prophets hang on the two commandments of love to God and man, ilL 3773 ; how they also defile the sense of the letter, 4783, 8780. Faith without charity is vile and filthy because it copulates with the evil affections, ill, 3870. It is not faith but the life of faith, or the fruit of faith, that is saying ; and they who are in the life of faith easily receive the faith itself, if not in the body yet in the other world, 4663. When faith is put before charity, divine truths are also put away, and rejected to the lowest place, 4673. The so-called confidence of a spurious and false faith can exist with a hfe of evil, 4683. They who are in faith alone cannot possibly adore the Lord in his divine humanity, but in heart deny him, 4689, 4730. The false doctrinals that spring from faith alone are those of immediate justification, admission into heaven by mere grace, &c., 4721, 4783. How the false principle, that faith alone is saving has risen from evils of life, and from a disinclination to discern in what a life of charity really consists, 4730. The simple know and acknow- ledge what charity is, not what faith separate is, 4754. They who are in faith alone give false interpretations from the Word, the literal sense of which is intended as the means of initiation into the internal sense, ill. 4783. Certain spirits described who, in the life of the body had received the truths of faith but lived in evil, how they abuse such truths to obtain dominion, &c., 4802. How many errors, not only infecting doctrine but life, have arisen from the one capital error that faith alone saves or from the more ancient form of the doctrine, that truth is su- perior and prior to good, 4925. The errors of faith alone have pro- \ FAI 199 ceeded much farther and wider than those of the superiority and priority of truth, 535 1 . Faith without charity is dead, and all who were prin- cipled in such faith, and did not live the life of charity are in hell, 535 1 . Such are they who infest the well-disposed of the spiritual church in the other life, as signified by the oppression of the Israelites by the Egyptians, 7097, 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142,7280,7317,7498,7502, 7506, 8049, 8096, 8132, 8165, 8364, 8528. To this purpose they abuse the common truths of the word, for all such infesting spirits had belonged to the church, and thus were acquainted with the Word in the hfe of the body, 7127, 7502, 7545, 7926. The difierence between such truths with them and with those they infest, ill, 7506. See Egypt. Faith is held to be in the first place before regeneration because it can be sensibly apprehended, but the good of charity is not apprehended until after regeneration, 6269. They that are in evils of hfe are either in falses as to faith, or in no faith, or utterly opposed to faith, 7627. Faith alone carries damnation along with it, and is damned when it is applied to patronize evils and falses, 7766, 7778. When the life is evil, the faith is necessarily a faith in what is false, and consequently tends to hell, 7778, 7950. He who is in evils of life may indeed con- firm himself in the doctrinals of his church, but he cannot be illustrated 80 as to discover whether they be true, 7950. When faith alone is taken for a principle, it is owing to evil of life, for the false is always concealed with the evil, ill, 8094, 7627. From the false principle that faith alone will save proceed numerous other falsifications, 8094, 8313, 8765. Such falsifications are in regular series, the first kind affecting the essentials of faith, the second affecting the neighbour, &c., 7779. See False. Faith without charity is like a blood-vessel or a fibre with- out the blood or the animal spirit, &c., 8530, 9154. They who are in faith alone see nothing but what confirms their sentiments when they read the Word, 8780. They are in darkness, because they separate goods from truths, ill, 9186. Faith alone is acknowledged in ignorance of the fact that all things in the universe have relation to good and truth, and their conjunction ; thus, to the two human faculties of will and understanding ; how many errors are grounded in it, 9224. The apparent faith or confidence of the evil when life is endangered is not genuine, for a genuine faith consists in believing the truths that are from God, 9243. See Confidence. Faith separate from charity is not a new thing, for it is repeatedly described in the Word by per- sons separated, cursed, or slain, 8093 ; see above 3325. Where they dwell in the other life who are in faith alone, their numbers, &c., 8096, 8099. See Egypt, Hell. 5. In respect to the Church. In the most ancient church no faith was acknowledged but love, nor were they willing to name faith, 32, 202, 337, 393 ; ill. 2715, ill, 2718, 4448. They never inquired what truth was, but they perceived it from good, 3246. When this state of perception from love existed no longer, faith was adjoined to charity, as the means of procuring conscience toman; in this conscience was the church after the flood, for the most part, and the primitive church, 393, 1834. The ancient church was principled in charity, and its means of arriving at charity was the truth of faith, hence truths began to be inquired into and discussed, 4448. By a further corrup- tion, faith and charity were disjoined, thus conscience perished, and J ! 200 FAI faith became dead, 1076, 1077. After this the knowledges of faith were retained, and hence proceeded the corruption of all worship, 1 1 62, 1163, 1 167, and sequel. The ancient church which existed after the flood was one church, though there were differences of doctrine and ritual, so long as the faith of charity remained, 1799. By faith, in its general sense, is meant the doctrine of the church, but as charity is the internal of the church such doctrine ought to be the doctrine of charity, ill, 1798. The faith or doctrine does not constitute the external of the church but a life according thereto, thus, according to the internal, 1799. When the church is resuscitated by the Lord, it is at first in innocence and charity, but charity is separated and vanishes away as evils creep in, and thereby falses of faith, ill, 1834, 1835. At this day, churches are distinguished by their doctrinals only, which they preach up as constituting the church, while they defame, and despoil, and rend one another like wild beasts, 1844. Such are they who are signified by the uncircumcised, for they make faith all, and charity nothing, 2049. The system of referring all doctrine and religion to faith began to prevail as soon as the human race began to will evil to one another, 2231. All mankind. Gentiles and Christians, simple and learned, young and old, are, by the providence of the Lord, bent to the good of life by the good of their faith, 2364. When the knowledge and thought of faith is made the essential of the church, and not the good of faith, it is a divided and false church, 2982. There is no church, unless the doctrinals of faith be implanted in the good of life, 3310. Every church is at first founded in love and charity, but in course of time it declines from the good of love to faith, thus from life to doctrine, and then the Word is closed to it, ill, 3773. When the church derives its beginning from faith, it has no regulator but the un- derstanding which is influenced by the loves of self and the world ; but a church beginning from charity is regulated by good from the Lord, 4673. As the church turns aside from charity to faith, and at length to faith alone, it makes a saving faith consist in confidence, which can- not be genuine with the evil, 4683, 4689, 7762. By what steps a church proceeds in this decline, 4730. Into what contradictions a church, principled in faith alone, necessarily comes ; and that it is no church, ill, 4766. How deficient it is in the actual end of all faith and doctrine, 5826. What discussion and strife prevails concerning the truth, and thus, how the church, at last, perishes, 6272. The differ- ence between the truths and goods of the church in those that are saved and those that are damned, ill. 7506, 7507. True worship is worship from the good of life, which is made spiritual by conjunction with truth ; worship from truth only is a mere ceremony, 7724. See Worship. All things of the church have respect to charity and faith ; to charity as the first and active force, and to faith as the reac- tive and passive, 7752—7762, The genuine truths of faith can be given in the church because it possesses the Word, which those out of the church do not, 7759. The doctrine of faith alone is not a new thing in the church, but has always prevailed along with evils of life from ancient times, 8093. It is represented under various names in the Word, and first by Cain, 337, 340, 1179; afterwards by Ham, 1062, 1063 ; by Reuben, 3870, 4601 ; by Simeon and Levi, 3870, 6352; by the Egyptians, 7766, 777S; by the Philistines, 3412, 3413; F AL 201 i I I by Tyre and Zidon, and lastly, by Peter, 6000, 6073, 8093. See each article. The Word and the doctrine of the church are believed by many who do not live accordingly, and all such are in a persuasive faith, which conduces nothing to salvation, 9363. Such is the faith of all those who love the Word and doctrine for the sake of the gain and re- putation accruing to them ; and the persuasion is stronger in proportion as they aspire after great things, 9364, 9365. Their persuasion appears to them like the truth itself so far as they believe, and preach, and act from the loves of self and the world ; but when they are not in the fire of those loves, they do not believe, 9366. They have no illustration whereby to know, neither do they care, whether their doctrine be true, so that it be credited ; and they defend faith alone above others, 9367. If deprived of gain and reputation, they recede from their faith, and it vanishes from them after death because it has no inward root in good, 9368. Such are they who are described in the Word as workers of iniquity and by the foolish virgins, 9369. It is not faith or doctrine that constitutes the church but charity, 809, 916, 1799, 1834, 1844. All doctrine, truth, or faith, is se- condary to good, and the appearance to the contrary is a fallacy, 352, 367, 2435, 3030, 3098, 3324, 3325, 3494, 3539, 3548, 3556, 3563, 3570, 3576, 3603, 3701, 4243, 4244, 4247, 4337, 4925—4928, 4930, 4977, 5351, 6272. The first-begotten signifies the faith of the church on account of the appearance, 352, see the passages collated, 3324, and the illustrations and reasons, 3539, 5351. It so appears to the spiritual man because he is introduced into good by truth, and his perception falls into the obscure light of the natural mind, 6256. The contrary is represented in the history of Esau and Jacob, 3233, 3490, 4232, 4336, and the sequel of each. See Esau, Jacob. It is also represented by Perez and Serug, 4923 ; and by Ephraim and Manas- seh, 6273. See Primogeniture. All things of faith and charity in one complex, thus all things of the church, were represented by the twelve disciples of the Lord, as formerly by the twelve tribes of Israel, 2129, 3354, 3488, 3858, 6397. Peter, James, and John, represented faith, charity, and the goods of charity, in their order. Preface fol- lowing numbers, '2134, 10,087 ; Peter alone faith, 3750, 4738, 6000, 6073, 6344, 10,087, 10,580, and preface following 2759. How much of good there would be in the church if charity were set in the first place, and faith in the second ; how much of evil is occasioned by the contrary, ill. 6269, 6272. How doctrinals of faith alone destroy charity, ill, 6353. How it was foreseen that the church would decline from charity to faith ; and that the truth concerning the Lord's divine human was not sooner revealed on this account, 4689. As to the denial of the Lord by Peter, then representing faith without charity, and the consummation of the church as a consequence, 6000, 6073, 10,087. See Church, Doctrine. FALL, to [cadere]. The faces or countenance falling signifies a change of the interiors, 358. To flee away and fall down signifies to be conquered, 1689. Falling on the faces was a rite of adoration in the roost ancient church, and was derived to the ancient church, because the faces denote the interiors of the mind, and to fall upon the faces humiliation, 1999. To fall backwards from horseback is predicated of those who reason sensually and scientifically concerning the truths of 203 FAL \ FAL 203 faith, and are thereby thrown into the lowest principles of naturalism, 2761, particularly 6398 — 6401. To fall denotes to be separated, illus- trated by RacheFs alighting from her camel, 3203. To fall upon the faces of all his brethren, predicated of the death of Ishmael, denotes the contentions concerning truth in which that representation ended, 3273 — 3277. To fall upon the faces of his father, predicated of Joseph, denotes influx, 6499. To fall upon his neck, predicated of Esau, de- notes conjunction, 4352. See to Kiss. The same thing predicated of Benjamin, 5926, and of Israel, 6033. To fall before any one denotes submission, illustrated by Joseph and his brethren, 6567' To fall away from Jehovah denotes to perish, 8831. To fall into a pit, predi- cated of an ox or an ass, denotes a lapse into error by perversion, 9086, 9163. To fall or be slain, denotes a closing up against internal influx, 10,492. To fall by the sword is to perish by falses, sh. 2799, 4499, 8294, 8902. To fall by pestilence, damnation on account of evil, sh, 7102. FALLACIES [/allaciie], arise from the general ideas of the senses not illustrated by particulars, 865. They appertain to the spiritual man to whom the common truths of the Word are accommodated, 865 ; compare 2053. Examples of the fallacies entertained by those who believe the Word in simplicity, 735, 1874. Certain spirits described who love fallacies, and will hardly be persuaded that anything they perceive is only the appearance of truth, 1376. Many things in nature are known to be contrary to the fallacious appearances presented to the senses, ill, 1378. In like manner, situation and place in the other life are appearances, and some of their phenomena, fallacies, 1380. It is a fallacy of the senses that the eye sees, illustrated by the author's spiritual experience, 1954, 3679. All truths with man are appearances imbued with fallacies, 2053, ill, 3207. It is a fallacy to suppose that man is made rational by sensual and scientific truths, for. influx is not inward but outward, 2577, t//. 5119, 6322, compare 2888. All that enters immediately into the thought by sensual media are fallacies ; fourteen examples of the leading fallacies both in natural and spiritual things, 5084 ; other examples, ill, 6948. Such fallacies cannot be re- jected, but the intuitions or thoughts, and the affections derived from them, can ; examples of rational thought opposed thereto, 5094. The ideas derived from sensual things are fallacies, unless they are illus- trated from the interior, 5133. It is the same with spirits in the other life who are subject to numerous fallacies of the senses in consequence of their influx with man ; examples, 5858. A further example in the case of subject spirits, 5985. Those who are in truth and not yet in good are in fallacies from lowest nature, ill. 6400. When the evil do evil to themselves, it appears as if it was from the Divine Being, but it is a fallacy like other fallacies, 8282. They who suppose that what they think and will are in themselves are only in fallacies, 9301. All these and similar fallacies are the proximate causes of falses which arise by reasonings therefrom, 1188, 1212, 4729, 7293. See False. FALLOW-DEER [dama]. See Deer. FALSE, Falsity [/alsum, falsitas] — 1. What the false isj and its varieties. Everything according to order has relation to good and truth, and all that is contrary to order, to evil and the false, 3166, 4390, 4409, 4839, 5232, 7256, 10,122. The springs of all that is evil and false are the loves of self and the world, which are born with the proprium of man, 210, 694, 1047, 4317. See Evil. False principles are the capital doctrines which conduce to systems, false persuasions are the truths that are made to favour the loves of self and the world, 794, 1192. There are three kinds of falses which owe their existence to reasonings concerning the truths and goods of faith, 1. From the fallacies of the senses, when the understanding is not illustrated, and from ignorance. 2. From the same cause with some cupidity predominant in it, as the lust of inno- vation or eminence. 3. From the will of evil or lust, which acknow- ledges nothing to be true but what favours its own cupidity, 1188. There are three origins of what is false, 1 . From the doctrine of the church, consisting of the persuasions with which man is imbued from infancy and their confirmations. 2. From the fallacies of the senses, the understanding having little intuition in consequence of the thought being immersed in inferior and sensual things. 3. From the will itself or the life of lusts, the falses springing up from which are the worst and most ineradicable, 4729, compare 1679. The fountain-heads of all falses are two : 1. The various cupidities of the loves of self and the world. 2. The various reasonings from knowledges and scientifics ; thus, there is the falseness of lusts and the falseness of ignorance, 1212, 1295. These two general kinds of falses described as the false derived from evil, and the false producing evil, 1679, 2243, 5351, 2408, compare 6859. There are falses of life which are produced be- tween falses of reasoning and falses of lusts, 1190, 1191. The evils cherished in will are turned into falses in the understanding, which are the falses of evil, 1573. Falses of evil are all that man thinks while he is in evil, by way of excusing it ; falses producing evil are such principles or convictions as allow it to be cherished as though it were not evil, 2243. Falses derived from evil are the very worst of falses, and the evils which they again produce are the worst of evils, for they completely close the internal man, 4729, 4818. Falses of evil are the false doctrinals derived from evil of life, 4832, 6784. Evil and the false of evil exists, when the evil of the will is seen and adopted by the understanding, 10,624. There are falses which contain good, and when this is the case, especially if it be the good of innocence, the false is accepted as truth ; on the other hand, unless it contain good, truth itself is not truth, 4736, 6784, 9258, 9335, 9809, 10,109, 10,302 ; see below, 3993, 8149. It is from the false of evil that infestation is suffered, for the false with the good does not oppose itself to truth, 9304. Falses are so numerous in kind that it is impossible to recount them, 4822. They are as numerous in kind and species as evils, for they are in correspondence with all the hells, which are innumerable, 7574. The common head of falsity which prevails with the depraved in all churches, is varied with every individual according to his life, 4822. Primary falses, and the special derivations of false principles illustrated by the doctrine of faith alone and the dogmas depending thereon, 4721, 7318, 10,659. The evils derived from falses are as numerous as the falses of faith and worship, ex. 7272. Mere falses are the very opposites or negatives of truth, 7351, 7392. The falses by which the spiritual church was infested at the Lord's advent, were of a more direful and persuasive nature than any before or any since. 204 FAL FAL 205 being infused by the Nephilim, who were the last posterity of the most ancient church, and who were not yet cast into hell, 7686. All those who infest others with falses belonged to the church when they lived in the world, and falses with such are more dense and grievous than with others, 7502, 7688, 7926. See Egypt (2). The false is all that is exactly contrary to the truth, while the falsified is truth itself appHed in the confirmation of evil, 8062, 7352. Falsified truth is the false not conjoined but adjoined to truth, profaned truth is the truth and the false conjoined, 7319. The total falsification of truth is when the false begins to reign, thus when man lives according to his innate and acquired evil, and either rejects or falsifies every truth opposed to his delight therein, 7327. Truth is falsified by being applied and brought down to evil, 8094, 8149. The false is the evil itself in form and effigy, 831 1, 9192, 9331. The false of interior evil is more subtle than that of evil spirits, and does not assault the truths of faith, but the goods of faith ; description of the evil genii from whom it proceeds, and their hells, 8593. The false is all that man thinks he understands from himself; the evil, all that he thinks he wills from himself, 9301. There are falses which do no hurt, falses which hurt lightly, falses which hurt much, and falses which destroy ; falses that hurt or destroy derive their origin from evil, 9331. Man is immersed in the falses of evil when his rational mind assents to the evils and falses arising from the fallacies of the senses, and the various appetites and pleasures of the body, 9331. He who separates faith from charity necessarily comes into falses, for even the truth is falsified by its sinister applica- tion under the influence of evil, 8087; ilL 8094, 7950. In this way doctrine from the Word is falsified, being like truth in the external form, but false in internals, ill. 9424. The truths of worship and doctrine are falsified, and become mere idols, when ideas of self and the world are adjoined to them, because such ideas transfer the truths from the divine to man, 10,643. In general, falses with those who are in evil are the falses of evil, and their truths are truths falsified, which are dead ; but falses with those who are in good are accepted as truths, for they are rendered mild and pliant, and applied to good uses ; variously ill. 2863, 4736, 6359, 6784, 8051, 8149, 8298, 8311, 8318, 9192, 9253, 9258, 9261, 9298, 9304, 10,109, 10,302. The methods by which truths are falsified are three: — 1. When those who are in evils of life acknowledge truths of doctrine ; 2. When the evil who have been in true doctrine adopt falses ; 3. When those who are in evils of life and falses of doctrine adopt truths, 10,648. Such falsifications are signified in the Word by whoredom, 10,648; ah, 2466. 2. The operation and connection of falses. How hurtful the per- suasion of what is false is ; that it hardens the mind against all instruc- tion, 794, 806. The falses of received principles, which do not origi- nate in the will, are still falses, and cannot but lead to evils of life, 1679. Hence there is always a connection between evils and falses, for they all either spring from evil or lead to evil, 1679, 2243; see below, 8318. Every cupidity produces its falsity, which may be com- pared with the lumen produced by a coal fire, 1666; ill. 8311, 10,624. The sphere of the persuasions and principles of what is false excites confirming falses, and this to such a degree that falses appear like truths and evils like goods, 1510, 1511. Evil spirits cannot operate by such spheres until man procures them to himself by actual life • hence they cannot excite anything of what is false with infants, and with the simple in heart, 1667. They cannot retain any potency either unless there be evils in man similar to their own state, for they are not allowed to think or to speak anything false, except from the evil which IS their own actual life, 1695. The evils and falses that flow in from hell can only be appropriated to man by his own act, 3812. From one mise principle there flow other falses in continual series, 4717, 4721 When evil is willed, it is confirmed by false thinking, and then falses appear hke truths and truths like falses, 4729. Truths are extermi- nated from the natural mind by falses; and, contrariwise, falses by truths, or the good which truths bring along with them, 5207. Falses and truths, whatever appearance there may be to the contrary, cannot be together, 5217, 7351, 7392. Truth has immense power over the ^la^o * because the latter is contrary to the divine potency itself, t//. 6784, 8206. There is no truth, however, but which may be falsi- fied by a process of reasoning; examples of such falsifications, 7318. Ihe evil are permitted to falsify the truths they acquire, in order to detach them from communication with the simple and the good in the other life, 7332. Falses and truths cannot be applied and conjoined except by intermediates, which are fallacies and appearances, such as are contained in the literal sense of the Word, 7344. See Fallacies. 1 he mfernals are permitted to reason from mere falses, but not from falsified truths, because the latter are at length turned into blasphe- mies ; an additional reason is, that the truth and the falsification cannot be together, for the truth rejects it, 7351, 7392. To reason from mere falses is to deny the truth, and assume its very opposite, exam- ples, 7352, 8062. All evil carries the false along with it, hence all they are in falses who are in evils of life, whether they know it or not 7437; ill. 7^77, 7950, 9192. Falses become manifest with such as soon as they begin to think about the truths of the church, and espe- cially about salvation, 8094. They who are in hell cannot do other- wise than speak falses, 7357. The evil cannot but think from evils to falses, for falses are their only means of defence, ill. 7437. It is un- dehghtful to the infernals to reason from mere falses ; but dehghtful to reason from truths falsified by fallacies and appearances, 7392, 7699. Those who are in the falses of evil are brought into anguish by the mere presence of the Lord, thus they are damned and cast into hell 8137, 8138, 8188, 8227; ill. and sh. 8265. Falses derived from evils appear as mists, clouds, and waters, around the hells, 8137, 8138, 8146, 8220. Such falses, by reason of the evil that is in them, gravi- tate towards hell, 8279, 8298. Every evil produces its own falsity, and forms itself therein, as the will always forms and effigies itself by the understanding, ill. 8311. The evil and the false really act toge- ther hke the will and understanding, 1 0,624. False principles of religion lead to evil, but only with those who are in evil, 8818. The truths which the evil only apply from their memory as means of doing evil, are not thereby commixed with falses, but only when they are made to favour evil by sinister arguments, whereby truth is profaned, 9298 • compare 10,109, 10,624. So long as the fires of evil are kept shut Up in the will, the understanding can be in illustration ; but when they effuse their light into the understanding, the prior light is dissipated. mm 206 FAL F AM 207 I \ir ■ I and the apperception of good and truth lost, 9144. With those who confirm themselves in falses, they are arranged in series and connection so as to form the mind itself, 9256. The arrangement of evils and falses thus connected is so intricate and inscrutable, that the angels cannot comprehend it, but only the Lord, 9336. A truth taken from the Word is filled with infinite other truths, and vnth the evil, with infinite falsities, ilL 9424. See Profanation. 3. Their confirmation or removal, Falses are not condemnatory unless they be copulated with evil by a Ufe confirming them, 84o, 129o, 4729, 5096. Neither falses nor evils, with which the hfe has been imbued, can be dissipated, except to appearance, 865—868. With those who become regenerate, falses, though not abolished, are bent to the truths of which they are receptive, 887. Their apparent aboli- tion is owing to their separation from the voluntary part, 895. Ihey are easily separated when they are not conjoined but only applied to good, which is the case with those who live conscientiously, 28 6 J, 10,302. Falses and evils, when they exist together with goods and truths, are not conjoined, much less united to good, but they are ad- loined and applied so that goods and truths occupy the centre, and evils and falses are arranged in a wonderful manner towards the pen- phery, 3993; further ill. 4551, 4552. With those who do not suffer themselves to be regenerated the contrary takes place, for evils together with their falses occupy the midst, and truths are rejected outward, and the further the more divine they are, 4552. Falses are continually in course of removal by truths, from the earliest boyhood to the end of life, but especially with the regenerate, 4551. When evil is willed, it is confirmed by false thinking, in which case the falses themselves may be so confirmed as to appear like truths, 4729, 5033. Those who confirm themselves in falses are no longer in a^J Ij^e^'ty ^^.f^^f ^"g ?°^ accepting truth, but are interiorly imprisoned and bound, 5096. When a false principle derived from evil is confirmed until it becomes a per- suasion, it appears hard; from experience in the other life, 63o9. The false is not appropriated to any but the evil, because they who are not such make it agree in some way with good ; thus its hardness and roughness are not perceived, 8051, 9192. Hence as truths are falsified by those who are in evils of life by being brought down to evil, so falses are made Uke truth with those that are in the good of life, by being brought to good, 8149, 8311. Hereby such falses are not imputed, but are accepted as truths, 4736, 6784, 8049, 8051. See above (1). Falses with those who are in good can be easily bent to truths, and at length dissipated ; but not so with those who are in evil, 2863, 9253, 9258 10 302. All falses can be confirmed, and when confirmed, they appear like truths, 4741, 5033, 6865, 7012, 7680, 7950, 8521, 8780. When falses are confirmed, they arrange themselves in series and con- nection, so as to constitute the very mind itself; m this case their era- dication is the work of years, for truths and goods must be implanted and disposed into similar order and series by the Lord, or otherwise the Ufe itself would be destroyed, 9256, 9335. How difficult it is to amend the falseness of this state, 9259. Either truths or falses are removed when judgment is formed from doctrine, 9425. Evils and falses are removed by a conformity to the precepts of eternal truth, esp^ially the acknowledgment of the Lord as the only God, and of all good and truth, and all salvation and eternal life as proceeding from him, 10,638. So far as evils and the falses of evil are removed, so far truths derived from good can increase and multiply in their room, 10,675. Evils and falses are removed by the sphere of goods and truths, in which the Lord is present ; but they surround it like a wall of waters, with a con- stant tendency to rush in, 8206. FAMILY [familia]. In the most ancient times men were distin- guished into houses, families, and nations, 470, 1159, 1246, 1259, 1261. A nation in the most ancient and also in the ancient church consisted of several families acknowledging one father; a family, of several houses, 470, 1258. See House, Habitation, to Dwell. This patriarchal custom was instituted as a means of preserving the church in its purity, and that the Lord's kingdom, thus consociation in heaven, might be represented, 471, 1259. The families thus dwelling together in the most ancient church were in different kinds and species of perception according to their paternity ; they contracted matrimony within their own houses and families, and now dwell together in heaven, 483. Consociations in the other hfe are thus arranged according to the consanguinities and affinities of love and faith, 685, 917, 5598. See Consociation, Affinity. Houses and families denote states of love and charity ; nations, of both, 1 159, 1251. Families and tongues denote states of morality, and varieties of opinion, 1215, 1216, 1251. Instead of a nation, according to the literal sense of the Word, the angels perceive its quality as to worship, thus as to charity and faith, 1 258. Families are predicated both of nations and peoples ; all the famiHes of the ground, therefore, denotes all goods and the truths of good, 1424, 3709. See Nations, People. Goods and truths enter into conjunctions, and form together like parents, brethren, relations, and friends, in families, 3612. The families of Israel denote the goods of truth ; every family within a tribe some special good of that particular order; thus they represented heavenly societies, 7833, 7836, 7891, 7916, 7996, 7997. See Tribes. In general, families signify truths and goods of worship and of life, 917, 1159, 1215, 1216, 1254, 1261, 3709, 7916. With the regenerate man, truths and goods are dis- posed in the same order as the societies of heaven, and the interiors are as parents from which they are born as sons and daughters, 9079. They are like families derived in long and widely-spread series from one father, who is the Lord himself as the Regenerator, 9807. See Generation, Nativity, to Bring Forth. FAMINE, OR Hunger [fames], denotes a scarcity of knowledges, 1460, 3316, 3364, 3708. Such defect of knowledge is predicated either of the natural man or the rational man according to the subject, 3364. It denotes a defect of km)wledges and of truth, or the apparent defect of such, 3364, 5270, 5277, 5279, 5281, 5300. By a famine consum- ing the earth is denoted despair from a defect of truth, and the increasing gravity of such a state, 5279, 5281, 6144. A famine denotes a defect of the knowledges of truth and good, thus desolation as to the things of the church, ill. 5360, 5376, 5415, 5536. It signifies the desolation arising from a want of spiritual nourishment, which consists in the things of science, intelligence and wisdom, 5576, 6110. Abundance of provision as opposed to a famine denotes the copiousness and suffi- ciency of knowledge, 5276. In the spiritual worid, as in the natural. 208 FAS FAT \ when there ceases to be food for use, they «=o-ne Jnto famme. 5579.

Feasts denote initiation into mutual love; nuptial feasts, initiation into conjugial love, 3832. L^V^o"^ ?^"'^^^ ^^^ "'^^^ of initiation which precedes conjunction, 3833. See the next article. FEASTS, OR Festivals [festa-]. To keep a feast or festival denotes worship from a glad mind, 7093, 8059, 9286, 9294. There were three general festivals commanded to be observed by the Jews : the feast of unleavened bread, which denoted purification from falses ; 214 FEE the feast of harvest or first-fruits, which denoted the implantation of truths in good ; and the feast of ingathering, which denoted the im- plantation of good, thus full deliverance from damnation, 9286, 10,669 —10,671, ill. 9294. In purification from falses is also implied deliver- ance from infestation by falses in consequence of the Lord's advent, 7093. The three feasts (which are also denominated the feast of the passover, the feast of weeks, and the feast of tabernacles, 9294) are called holy convocations, because the whole company of Israel accord- ing to their tribes and families represented heaven, 789 1 . Thus they were in a full representative state on such occasions, and were prohibited from all manner of work in order to prevent the representation of worldly and corporeal things, 7893. See Sabbath. These festivals were retained after representatives were abolished, for the sake of doc- trine and instruction, 7893. They represent the human race led from hell and introduced into heaven by the reception of new life from the Lord by virtue of his advent, 9294. The primary intention of the feast of unleavened bread, or Paschal feast, was to signify the subjuga- tion of hell and the glorification of the Lord's humanity, ill. 10,655, 10,659; see also 2342. It denotes his presence with deliverance, 10,134. Hence it was forbidden to eat anything leavened, because a fermenting agent signifies the false of evil, 9992. See Leaven. The signification of the feast of weeks or first-works, as denoting the im- plantation of truth, sh. 9294, 9295 ; and that of the feast of taberna- cles, as denoting the implantation of good, 414, 3312, 4391, 6537, ilL and sh. 9296, 10,545. On the latter occasion they dwelt in tents, 3312, 4391. See Tent. What was signified by the animals sacrificed on these occasions, 2830. See Sacrifice. FEED, to [^pascere]. See Shepherd. FEEL, OR Touch, to [palpare, tangere]. Spirits and angels have sensitive life the same as men, and their sense of touch is most ex- quisite, 322, 1630, 1880, 1881, 1883. All sensations have reference to touch, of which they are only diversities and varieties, 322, 3528. The whole sensitive nature is nothing but the external perceptive, and the perceptive nothing but the internal sensitive, 3528. The inmost and all of perception is denoted by feehng, because the sense of touch is the one common and universal sense to which all the other senses have reference, 3528, 3559, 3562. All the external senses are in cor- respondence with the internal senses. The sense of touch in general corresponds to the affection of good, 4404, 5077, 10,199. It has special reference to the voluntary part, 5077. The whole external man, thus the senses, are formed in correspondence with the whole world ; the sense of touch sympathizes with the changes of state in the air, is cognizant of fluency, of weight, &c., 6057. Touch and taste form the ultimate of the voluntary part ; sight and hearing of the intellectual part ; and smell is common to both, 9996. Touch, in general, signifies communication, translation, and reception, because the activity of the whole body is collated into the arms and hands, 10,019 10,023, 10,130, 10,199. See Hand. The interiors of man put themselves forth and communicate with others by externals, especially by the sense of touch ; thus, they transfer themselves into another, and so far as the will of the other consents they make one, 10,130. Even sight can be effected by touch, 10,130, compare 7046. In the other hfe, spirits are / FIB 215 consociated according to similarity of state ; those who mutually touch one another communicate the state of their life ; if they touch by the hands, the whole state of their life, 10,023. The command that the people were not to touch the border of Mount Sinai, signifies that there was no extension to the heavenly societies that are in the love of good, nor even to intermediates, 8796, ill. 8797, 8798. As to touching the hollow of Jacob's thigh, 4305, 4317 ; the touching of that man and woman, 3402 ; and the evil of even touching the tree of knowledge, 202. Darkness that may be felt signifies the falses of evil so dense that nothing of good and of truth can be known, 7712. See Sense. FEET \ pedes]. See Foot. FEMALE. An accurate distinction is always made in the Word between male and female ; in general the former signifies truth, the latter good, 4005; compare 1484, 4104, 4200. Females, women and wives denote affections of truth and good ; affections of truth when named along with the husband, and affections of good when the mar- ried state is not predicated, 4510. Handmaids or females denote those who are in the affection of truth and good, thus whom truths and goods affect when they perceive them in others ; such affection is com- mon with good females, 8994. In the celestial church females or wives are in the knowledges of good and truth, and the husbands in affection, 8994. The female sex is so constituted and formed that the will, whether it be good or evil, prevails over the understanding ; such is the total disposition of their fibres, and such their nature, 568. As to the an- cient law concerning the females or wives of servants, and those born of them, 3974. As to the phenomenon of a female being propagated from a male soul, see the author's work on Conjugial Love, 220. FERMENT, to. See Leaven. FERVOUR, predicated of Jehovah, denotes repugnance and pun- ishment of what is evil and false, 3614, 5798. See Anger. FESTIVALS [festa]. See Feasts. FEVER [febris]. See Disease. FIBRE. Those in the grand man, or heaven, who are in princi- ples of good, have reference to the cortical substances of the brain ; those who are in principles of truth, to the fibres which flow out from such substances, 4052. The fibres of the cerebrum are the organs of the voluntary sense ; those of the cerebellum, of the involuntary ; both are conjoined in the medulla oblongata and medulla spinalis, 4325, ill. 9670. In ancient times, there was special influx from the cerebellum by means of its own fibres into the face ; these are now supplanted by fibres from the cerebrum, 4326. The fibres of the cerebellum are ruled generally by those of the cerebrum, hence the simulation and deceit which are now so prevalent, 4327. Ends are represented by the begin- nings or principles of fibres ; thoughts thence derived by fibres, and acts by nerves, 5189. Truths in good are like nerves in the flesh, thus they are like spiritual fibres which form the body ; hence, fibres signify the inmost forms proceeding from good, and nerves, truths, 4303, 5435. See Nerve. Truths invest good, as vessels the blood and fibres the spirit, 5954, ill. 5951, and more largely, by the same com- parisons, 9154. There are fibres about the lips which were not created for mastication and vocal speech only, but for expressing the ideas of the soul ; hence the prominence of the lips with those who allow their 1 216 FIE thoughts to flow out freely, and the contraction from interiors with those who are hahituated to restraint, 8247, 4799. Certain spirits de- scribed who correspond to the isthmus between the cerebrum and cere- bellum by which the fibres pass out and are variously diffused, 4799, 5189. FIELD [ff^er]. Earth denotes the external man while man is yet spiritual ; ground and field, the external man when he is becoming celestial, 90, compare 9272. A field denotes doctrine, and whatever has respect to doctrine, sh. 368, 3196. A field, and also ground, de- notes the church as to good, because the truths of faith, which are compared to seed, are received in good, 2971 . It denotes the good of faith, 2980. A field with a cave in it denotes the church and its faith, 2971, 2980, 2984. Meditating in a field, denotes thought in good, and is predicated of the rational man, 3196. The earth denotes the Lord's kingdom in heaven and earth, thus the church ; ground, the same but in a stricter sense ; field, also the same, but in a sense still stricter, ill, and sh. 3310, 3766, citations 6767, 7571. A" man of the field denotes good of life derived from doctrinals, 3310. The parable concerning seed sown in four kinds of earth or ground, ex. 3310. To come into a field denotes the study of the good of life, 3317. A field denotes the good of the church, and the good of doctrine, thus, good ground, 3500, or where good is, 4073, 4397, 9230. To go into the field to hunt, denotes the endeavour of the affection of good to procure truth, 3508. A field denotes the state of the man of the church as to good; the divine command. Matt. xxiv. 18, ex. 3652. A field denotes the church as the recipient of the seeds of good and truth ; the various growths of the field, such things in their different kinds, 3766, 3941, 7502, ill. and sh. 9272. See Earth. The middle of a field denotes the interior of the church ; standing com in a field, good in the church, ill. 4686. In the opposite sense, a field denotes a religious corruption, being predicated of a church merely external, 4440, 4443. When house denotes celestial good, then field denotes spiritual good; and when house denotes spiritual good, then field denotes spiritual truth, thus doctrine, 4982. Fields, when mentioned after houses and courts, denote what is still more exterior, 7407. "When man is called a field, it is his mind, which consists of will and understanding, that is meant; the seed of the field denotes nourishment of the mind, 6158, 8505. A field denotes the church as to good; a vine, as to truth or the good of truth, br. sh. 6432, 9139. Herbs of the field denote the truth of the church, sh. 7571. The field of another denotes good not of the same family, but coherent by affinity, ill, 9141. A harvest-field denotes the whole human race as to the reception of truth in good; it also denotes the church, and the man of the church, and good with him, sh. 9295. See Harvest. Cain and Abel in the field together, denotes charity, and faith be- come doctrinal, leading to the extinction of charity, 366 — 369. Abram's huying the field of Ephron the Hittite for a burial-place, denotes the redemption of those who are capable of receiving the goods and truths of faith, 2940, 2954, 2955, 2964, 2969. See Death, 2908, and sequel. Isaac in the field meditating, when Rebecca was brought to him, denotes the rational in the good of the church, and the affection of truth acceding thereto, 3196, 3201. Esau's having come aweary Fl L 217 from the field when he sold his birthright, denotes the temptation of those who are in the good of life, but as yet without truth, 3318. See Esau. Jacob's coming into the field and watering the flocks lying there, denotes instruction from the Word with those who are in the goods and truths of faith, 3760 — 3773. Reuben in the field, and his finding the dudaim, denotes the state of the church when conjugial love is discovered to it, 3940 — 3942. The sons of Jacob in the field, and coming from the field exasperated against Sheckhem, denotes that his posterity in their religion opposed themselves to the truths of the ancient church, 4440, 4442, 4444. Joseph's wandering in the field and not finding his brethren, denotes the fallen state of the church in which the divine human is not acknowledged, 4717. As to the feast of taber- nacles when all the sons of Israel dwelt in the fields, its representation of heaven, &c., 7891, 7893, 9294—9301. See Feasts. As to Jeho- vah's marching out from the field of Edom, see Edom. FIFTEEN, Fifteenth, Fifty, &c. See Numbers. FIGHT, to \^pugnare']. See Enemy, War, Temptation. FIG-TREE, the \Jlcus']^ denotes natural or exterior good, 216, 217, 885, 4231, 4314, 5113, 9277, 9960, 10,137. To sew fig-leaves signifies to excuse, 216 : compare 9960 near the end. The fig-tree dried up denotes that there was nothing good, not even natural good remaining in the earth, 217, 4314. Only the leaves remaining, that doctrinals of faith or truths were still extant with them, 885. The fig-tree denotes natural good, the branch its affection, the leaves truths, «A. 4231. The vine and the fig-tree are so frequently mentioned to- gether because the former signifies spiritual good, the latter natural, sh, 5113, 9277. The fig-tree reduced to foam, cited, 5113, 7643. He who is destitute of the good of life, and yet abounds in truths, is like the fig-tree which withers away, and is accordingly cut down, 9337. FILL, to [implere']. When man is regenerated, the goods and truths of remains are filled into his scientifics, 5373. Hence, the ves- sels of his brethren filled with corn by Joseph, signifies scientifics gifted with the good of truth, 5487. The multiplication of good and truth which then takes place in the natural man, is denoted by filling the earth with increase, 984 ; illustrated by the increase of the Israelites in Egypt, and their filling the land of Goshen, 6647 — 6649. To fill from out of a well signifies to enrich from the Word, ^777. To he filled with the spirit of wisdom is to know truths, not from science but from internal perception arising out of good, ill. and sh. 9818. To be filled with the spirit of God denotes influx and illustration from divine truth proceeding from the divine good of the Lord, 10,330. Moses commanded to anoint Aaron and his sons, and to fill their hands ("con- secrate them" in the English Bible), signifies the Lord as to the good of love and the truths of faith, 9954, 9955. The filling of their hands represented the divine potency of the Lord in saving the human race, also its communication and reception, ill. and sh. 10,019, 10,120. It signifies divine truth, proceeding from divine good ; thus, the influx and communication of divine truth from the Lord, and its reception in heaven, 10,076, 10,101, 10,118,10,493. As to the ram of irapletion or consecration, 10,076, 10,106, 10,114. See Hand (3). As to the stones of impletion filled in the breast-plate, 10,333. To fill (or go 218 F I R fully) after Jehovah signifies to do according to the divine truth, 10,076. See Full, to Fulfil. FILTH [sordes]. The loves of self and the world with all that per- tains to them constitutes the filth of the natural man, which impedes the influx of good and truth from the Lord, 3147. Those who have addicted themselves to such loves in the world, however delicately they may have lived, dwell amongst fiUh in the other life, 4948. See Ex- crement. The lice under the scabs and filth of the skin correspond to such evils as inhere in the sensual part, 7419. FINE, ^0 Fine [iw?//c^a, mulctare]. Concerning certain deceitful spirits who have the art of insinuating themselves into societies, whence they are afterwards expelled with fines or punishments, 957, 12/3. A fine signifies amendment, because it is inflicted for that end, 9045. The same is signified by a repayment, and tlie silver paid denotes truth by which amendment is efi*ected, 9087, 9097. It also denotes restitution, 9097; and consequently the corresponding punishment, 9102, where the whole is illustrated. FINGER [digitus]. See Hand. FIRE [ignis]. 1. Cold and heat have place with one about to be regenerated, as summer and winter, with one who is regenerate, 933, 935, 930. Fire or heat denotes love and charity, 934. Strange fire denotes the love of self and the world, and all their cupidities, 934, 9965. Heavenly love is called a consuming fire, because it so appears to the wicked, 934, end. The burning of fire denotes evil, originating in the love of self, 1297. The angels occasionally appear like lucid stars, coruscating according to the quality of their charity and faith ; the evil, as coal fires, 1527. The life of the Lord's love and mercy is actually changed into such a fire with them, 1528. The fire of the evil on their approaching good spirits is turned into cold, 825, 1528, 4175. See Cold. A torch of fire denotes the heat of cupidities ; the smoke of a furnace, dense falses, 1801. Fire denotes lust and hatred ; the smoke ascending therefrom, the falses which accompany them, sh. 1801. The fire of hell is nothing but hatred, revenge, and cruelty; or the love of self from which they proceed, 1801 . The fire of sulphur denotes the false, originating in the evil of the love of self, 2440. The lake of fire and sulphur denotes hell, thus the love of self with its cu- pidities and falses, 2446, 7324. When sulphur is put for evils, fire denotes falses ; when fire is put for evils, smoke denotes falses, 2446. Fire, and smoke, and sulphur, named in series, denote evils and falses of all kinds, 2446. On account of the sulphur they contain, the gopher- wood of which the ark was made, and other woods of the same species, denote concupiscences, which easily catch fire, 643. In like manner the bitumen used at the building of Babel, 1299. Heat denotes a holy external in which are the loves of self and the world, 3755. Fire and the sun signify divine good ; light, the proceeding divine truth, 3969. Spiritual fire and heat consist in love, and, deprived of his love, man is reduced to a state of torpor and death, ill. 4175. Love is spiritual fire, and life is actually from the heat thence derived ; hence fire and flame denote good, and heat the affection of good, ill. 4906. Eternal fire is neither elementary fire, nor the torment of conscience, but the fire of concupiscences, ill. 5071, 6832. The vital fire of man is from FIR 219 love, whether good or evil, 507 1 . There are two origins of heat, or of fire, the sun of the world and the sun of heaven. It is heat from the latter which is meant in the Word by fire, flame, and heat, which de- notes love in both senses, 5215. The heat of the sun of heaven is as universal as that of the natural sun ; it is this heat which kindles the interiors of man, and gives birth to all his desires and affections, 5215. This vital heat flows into the heat derived from the sun of this world, and vivifies it, 6314. Vital heat, or love, is meant by sacred fire in the Word, and infernal love by the fire of hell, 6314, 6832, 6834, 6849, 7324, 9434. Fire and flame signify divine love, and likewise divine truth proceeding from the divine good of the Lord, sh. 6832. In the opposite sense, fire and flame denote filthy loves, sh. 6832. The fire of man's life proceeds from the Lord as a sun, and is turned into the fire of lusts when it enters with those who are in contrary forms, 6832. Such is the ardour of the divine love of the Lord, which is the fire of the spiritual sun, that if that fire or love should flow into any one in its purity, even into an angel of the inmost heaven, he would perish, 6834, 6849, 8644, 8760. On this account the angels are veiled with a thin suitable cloud, by which the heat flowing in from the sun is tempered, 6849, 8816. See Sphere, Influx. When the Lord was in the world, he received the fire of this love into his humanity, 6834 ; and hence in him alone the Father is made manifest, 6849. It is from spiritual fire and not from elementary fire that all life pro- ceeds, 7324. Fire denotes the lust or cupidity of evil ; an oven, its delight, 7356. Fire and hail are mentioned together, because fire is the evil of lusts, and hail the falses derived therefrom, sh. 7^7 by 7553. To be roasted with fire is to be imbued with the good of love, sh. 7852. To be burnt with fire denotes temptation, because purifications are ef- fected by fire ; in temptation likewise man is immersed in his cupidities which are fires, 786 1 . The heat of the east-wind denotes temptatwns as to the will ; the waters of a flood, as to the understanding, 739, 5215. In the opposite sense, a burning denotes the hurt or extinction of the good of love, ill. 9055, 10,038. The proceeding divine truth is like light proceeding from the sun, which light has in itself heat, 8328. The heat contained in the proceeding light is accommodated to reception; in like manner the divine good contained in the divine truth, which could not be sustained in its proper quality, 8644, 8816. The case is relatively the same with the heat and light of the superior heavens in respect to the inferior, 8797. The cupidities of man are consuming fires ; hence, the kindling of a fire signifies the desolation of goods and truths by reason of lusts, sh. 9141—9144. To desolate is ex- pressed by a Hebrew word which signifies to fire and burn up, 9141. Fire denotes anger, because anger is a fire breaking out from the affec- tion of evil, sh. 9143, 9144. How the will communicates by its fire with the understanding, where the confluence of evils and falses kindle into flame, ill. 9144. Falses in the understanding are like smoke, and wrath is like a flame kindled in it, 9144. The Lord appears to every one according to his love, as a creating and renovating fire to the good, but as a consuming fire to the evil, ill. 9434, 8816. His descent m fire denotes his manifestation in divine celestial love, 8820 ; see below. (2). Love is like a fire or flame in man, for it is the vital flame itself, and faith is like its light, 9434. The fire of the altar represented divine 220 FIR love thus love from the Lord ; strange fire, love flowing in from hell, 9965. To be baptized with the holy spirit and with fire is to be rege- nerated by the good of love, 9229. The people being as the fuel of the fire denotes their appropriation of the evils or the cupidities of the loves of self and the world, 10,283. In general, heavenly fire is love to the Lord and love to the neighbour ; infernal fire, the love of self and the world, and hence the concupiscence of all evils, 10,747. These loves have their respective seasons answering to the times of the day, &c. ; thus it is morning with the inhabitants of heaven when they are in their highest state of felicity, and with the inhabitants of hell when they are in the excitement of their lusts, thus, in their infernal fires, 10,413. The inhabitants of Mars have the art of making fluid fires, by which they obtain light in the evening time and night, 7486. 2. The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah by fire rained down from Jehovah out of heaven, signifies the damnation which those pro- cure to themselves who are in the evils of the love of self, and in falses derived therefrom, ill. and sh. 2443—2447. The hail and fire mingled with hail which fell in Egypt, the fire running along upon the ground, denotes the falses of evil by which the truths and goods of the church are destroyed, and the evil lusts which then occupy the whole natural mind, 7574, 7b7by 7553. Ezekiel's vision of the cherubim, and the coals of fire, and the man scattering the fire over the city, de- notes the providence of the Lord guarding the mysteries of faith, and the evil left to their lusts, 308. The first angel sounding, and hail and fire mmgled with blood falling upon the earth, denotes the evil of lusts and their conjunction with falsified truths disclosed, 7553. The fire and smoke, and darkness, in which Jehovah appeared to the Israelites, denote the reception of him by that people, thus the evils and falses mto which they converted all the good and truth proceeding from him. 1861, 2842, ill, 6832, fully ill. 8793-8797, 8816, 8820, 9434. The bush burmng with fire in which Jehovah appeared to Moses, denotes the divine love manifested in scientific truth ; thus, the divine truth Itself in the natural man, i7/. and «A. 6832— 6834, 6849. Jehovah^s going before the Israelites in a column of cloud by day, and a column of fire by night, denotes his presence with man when in a state of illustration and when in a state of obscurity, ill. 8105—8110, briefly 5923. The fire going out from Jehovah and destroying Nadab and Abihu when they offered incense with strange fire, denotes the annihi- lation of worship when any other than heavenly love enters into it, 9376, 9942, 9965. The command of Judah that Tamar should be led away and burnt, after he had used her as a harlot, denotes the good of the church, or the internal of the church, extirpated by the affection of evil, 4906. The institution of sacrifices, and of the holocaust or fire- ofi'ering of Jehovah, was to represent all divine worship in general, and its being kindled by divine love ; in the supreme sense, the glorifi- cation of the assumed humanity, 10,055, 10,086, 10,245, but parti- cularly 10,042. The burning of incense was instituted to represent the hearing and gjateful reception of all worship proceeding from love and charity, 10,177. Its being off'ered in the morning, when the lamps were dressed, and in the evening, when thev were lighted, was to re- present the elevation of worship,—!, in a clear state of love, which is constantly associated with intellectual light, and 2, in a state of obscurity FIR 221 as to the good of love, when illustration is afforded as far as possible, ill. 10,200, 10,201. See Light, Flame. FIRMAMENT. Mutual love is the very firmament of heaven, for in that, heaven itself and all its consociation and unanimity subsists and consists, 2027. The firmament or expanse of Gen. i. denotes the in- ternal man, 24. See Expanse. FIRST \^primus, primurn]. There is nothing unconnected with somewhat prior to itself and thereby through the medium of other prior things with the First of all, thus with the Lord, 3627. How all the contents of the Word have respect to him as the First and the Last, 3382. Did man only acknowledge the Lord in faith and heart as the First and Last End, he would be the medium of descent to the ultimates of nature, and of ascent from the ultimates of nature to the divine, 3702. The connection of things depends on the presence of the first end in the ultimates, 6044, 7004. The first and the last are always together, thus there is continual progression from one church or state to another ; hence the last and first denote what is perpetual, and in the supreme sense what is eternal, 4901. The first day denotes the beginning of a given state, 7887, 7891. The first month of the year, the beginning of all succeeding states to eternity, 7828. There are two things which signify the whole, namely, the highest and lowest, or the first and last, 10,044, 10,329, 10,335. The first and the most new (or last) denotes the one end which all things regard, thus the Lord, 10,044. The first holds all things in connection by means of the last, ill. 9828. See End, Number. FIRST-FRUITS [primitia]. The first-fruits of the harvest and the first-fruits of the vintage signify all the goods and truths of faith, which are to be ascribed to the Lord ; of what they respectively con- sisted, 9223, 9300. The feast of harvest or first-fruits of labour repre- sented the fructification of truth by its implantation in good, 9294. See Feasts. The first of the first-fruits being sacred to the Lord sig- nifies the holiness of all good and truth by the life received from him, ill. 9300, 10,680. The first of the first-fruits signifies the state of innocence induced in infancy, 3519. The first-fruits of the earth sig- nifies the good of the new will, 5144. The day of first-fruits, the day of the wave-sheaf, &c., denote states of innocence, ill. 10,132. Their being waved, vivification, 10,083. FIRSTLINGS, FIRST-BORN, or FIRST-BEGOTTEN [primo- genita, primogenitus]. The firstUngs of the flock denote what is of the Lord alone, thus love, 352. By the first-born is meant not only • the prior in time, but the prior in degree, which is good, 3325, 4923, 4925, 6273. The Lord alone is the First-born or the First-begotten with respect to his human essence, and others are so called from love to him, 352, 3325, 4925. Love or good is the first-born, because life is in it, and in faith or truth only derivatively, 3225. When the rege- neration of the spiritual man is treated of, the primogeniture is attri- buted to truth from the appearance, sh. 3225, 8042. Hence, in the opposite sense, the first-born of Egypt, and the first-born of the maid- servant who is behind the mills, signify the doctrine of faith and cha- rity perverted by scientifics, thus truths falsified, 3325, 4335, 7039 ; particularly 7779, 7780, 7949, 7950. In the genuine sense, the first- born signifies the good of charity ; but according to appearances, the 222 FIT I! truth of faith, 6344; or the faith of charity, 7035, and citations. The first-born to be sanctified to Jehovah denotes acknowledgment and con- fession that all faith is from him, 8038, 8042. The first answers for the whole in these cases, because all derivative truths and goods draw their essence from the first, 8042. See First. The firstling of an ass was not to be set apart, but redeemed with a lamb or a kid, because it denotes faith merely natural, which is not from the Lord and is not to be ascribed to him, 8078. The first-born of men were to be re- deemed, and the tribe of Levi was substituted in their place, because the truths of faith arc not to be ascribed to the Lord except by its good, 8080. The first-born of beasts that were redeemed were all such as were not offered in the sacrifices, asses, mules, horses and the like, 9223. As to the apparent priority of truth while man is regenerating, and the ancient controversy whether the good of love or the truth of faith is the first-begotten, 3863. See Jacob, Esau, Primogeniture. As to the real priority and superiority of good, see the seriatim passages cited, 3324. '^ ^ ^ ^ To FIR-TREE [abies]. The cedar, the glory of Lebanon, denotes celestial spiritual things ; the fir-tree, the pine, and the box, celestial natural, 2162. The fir-tree, the pine and the box signify spiritual good and truth, and natural goods and truths corresponding thereto, 9406. The man of the spiritual church is called the garden of God ; his rational mind is denoted by the cedar ; his natural mind, as to good by the fir, and as to truth by the chestnut or plane-tree, 4014. The fir-tree, and others of its kind, abound in sulphur ; hence the gopher- wood of which the ark was made denotes concupiscences, 643. FISH [piscis]. Fishes and birds denote the products of the fifth state of regeneration, which arise from confirmations of truth and good, 11. Fishers denote those who instruct natural men in the truths of faith, 40; thus who teach from sensual truths, 3309; or give instruc- tion in the externals of the church, 10,582. Fishes denote scientifics animated by faith; great whales, their common products, 40, 42, 991. In the opposite sense fishes denote those who think sensually, and thus confide in scientifics only, and thence conceive falses, 99 1 . The pro- phecy of much fish denotes the abundance of applicable scientifics, 2702. The piece of broiled fish and honeycomb, of which the Lord ate after his resurrection, denotes the external sense of the Word as to its truth and pleasantness, 5620. The reason of its being broiled, &c., 7852. The tribute-money taken from the mouth of the fish denotes the subjection and servitude of the natural man, 6394. Whales signify the common products or heads of scientifics ; fishes, the scientifics which are thus contained in common ; their scales, things merely sen- sual ; hence Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is called a great whale, &c., 6693. The fish dying denotes the scientifics of truth extinguished, 7318, 9755. The inhabitants of a certain earth described who Hve on fish and fruits, &c., but not the flesh of animals, 10,161. To fish is to instruct in external truths ; to hunt is to instruct in internal, 10,582. FISHERS [piscatores]. See Fish. FITCHES OR VETCHES [zea]. Wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt or fitches, as different species of bread, signify various species of good, more and less noble, 3332. [The passage cited here is Ezek. iv. 9; the same Hebrew word occurs Exod. ix. 32 and Is. xxviii. FLA 223 25, where it is rendered, in the authorized version, by rye, but the author translates both passages uniform with the above. Accordingly,] Fitches or spelt (zea vel spelt a, Exod. ix. 32) signifies interior natural truth corresponding to interior natural good, as signified by wheat, 7601 — 7605 ; and to sow wheat, barley, and fitches (Is. xxviii. 25) signifies the implantation of truth in good, 10,669. [The word ren- dered fitches in the authorized version. Is. xxviii. 25, 27, which is the only place where it occurs, is quite distinct from the above, and is translated uigella by the author. Thus,] Nigella and cummin denote scientifics, these coming first under man*s cognizance when he receives intelligence, 10,669. To grind, which signifies the disposition of truths in their series, is predicated of wheat, barley, and fitches ; to bruise or pound, which has the same signification, is predicated of oil, frank- incense, and aromatics, 10,303. FIVE, Fifteen, Fifty, &c. See Numbers. FIX FIRM, to [obfirmare']. See Hard. FLAGS [alffiB], The flags in which the ark of Moses was placed denote the false scientifics in which they are who are first initiated into divine truth, 6726. See Reed, Egypt. FLAME [Jlamma]. The loves and their affections are represented by flames, and truths by lights, 3222, 6272. All celestial and spiritual heat, or love and charity, are perceived in heaven as a flame from the sun ; all celestial and spiritual light, thus faith, as light from the sun, 3862. Fire and flame denote good, and heat thence proceeding the affection of good ; in the opposite sense, evil and the affection of evil, 4906. Heat, fire, and flame in the genuine sense denote celestial and spiritual loves; in the opposite sense, corporeal and terrestrial love, ill. 5215, 6033. Good with man is like a little flame which gives light to and illuminates his mind, so that he can see, perceive, and believe truths, 5816. The flame of the spiritual sun is nothing but divine love, and the light of that flame is the holy proceeding of love, which is divine truth, 6645. Fire and flame signify the divine love of the Lord, and the divine truth proceeding therefrom ; in the opposite sense they denote filthy loves, sh, 6832. The flame of divine love is so pure, that if it were to flow into any one, even an angel, it would instantly consume him, 8644; ill, 8760. Flames signify divine truths proceeding from divine good, 8914. When the will flows into the understanding it kindles a flame, which, with the evil, consumes all the goods and truths of faith, ill. 9144. Flame denotes mutual love, its heat cha- rity, its light faith, ill. 9473. Light in the inmost heaven is flaming, because in good ; but in the middle heaven white, because in truth, 9570; hence there are two fundamental colours, red and white, which correspond to good and truth, ill. 9866. See Colours, Precious Stones. Good cannot become manifest without truth, as flame cannot appear without light ; and in like manner truth cannot exist except from good, as light cannot exist except from flame, 9637. Spiritual light and spiritual heat proceeding from divine truth and divine good constitute the very life of man, ill. 6033. Charity may be compared to a flame, which is the essential of heat and light ; faith separate, to the light of the flame without its heat, 365. All celestial flame and spiritual light is from the Lord, who appears as a sun in the midst of his kingdom, 2973. The flame and light of the spiritual sun decrease i\ ^1 I 224 FLE to their minimum, and in their termini the opposites commence, 2973. In the opposite sense, faces of flame denote cupidities, 1326. There is a certain flame and delight in the hfe of cupidities, but it is exterior, 1594, 2973. The quality of heavenly light discovered by the appear- ance of an intense flame, from experience, 1524. The quality of the celestial church represented by flames and colours, from experience, 4328. The quality of ideas interiorly open represented by a lucidity and a flame therein, as the token of the Lord's presence, from experi- ence, 6620. The Lord's presence manifested by a cloud, which gra- dually became more lucid, and assumed the human form, and at length appeared like a bright flame, from experience, 10,810. The state of the inhabitants of Mars represented by a flame which changed into a bird, &c., from experience, 7620—7622. See Fire, Light. FLAX [linu7n], signifies exterior natural truth, corresponding to barley, which signifies exterior natural good, 7600. It takes this sig- nification from representatives in heaven ; natural truth appearing as a texture of fine linen threads, ill. &nd sh. 7601. See Linen, Gar- ment. FLEE, to [fugere]. See Fugitive. FLESH [caro]. See Body, Food, Bread, Wine. The proprium of man is denoted by bone ; the proprium vivified, by flesh, 148, 149, 780, 3540. The coherence of the internal with the external, when the posterity of the most ancient church desired Ho live in their proprium, is signified by the man and his wife becoming one flesh, 160 — 162. In a general sense flesh denotes all mankind, specifically the corporeal man, sh. 574, 627, 661, 670, 780, 999. The people lusting for flesh signifies the desire to live corporeally, 574 ; compare 8431. The way of all flesh corrupted signifies the understanding of truth wholly de- stroyed in the corporeal state of man, 627. The destruction of all flesh in which was the spirit of lives, under heaven, signifies the pos- terity of the most ancient church perishing by their corporeal lusts and persuasions, 661, 800. See Flood. Every hving soul denotes man as to the intellectual part ; all flesh, as to the voluntary part, 670. As flesh denotes the voluntary proprium, it also signifies all its concu- piscences, ilL and sh. 999 ; particularly 10,283. Life is predicated of flesh when man, from corporeal, becomes regenerate, thus when his proprium is vivified, 780. The Hving soul in all flesh is predicated of the whole human race from the remains of innocence and charity with them, ill. 1050. The flesh of the foreskin to be circumcised denotes the removal of the defiled loves of the proprium, 2041, 2056, 2057. The covenant of Jehovah in their flesh denotes the conjunction of the Lord with man even in his impurity, and purification thereby, ill. 2053. My bone and my flesh denotes conjunction as to truths and as to goods, 3812; compare 156. Flesh denotes the proprium in both senses, good and evil ; in the former case the heavenly proprium with which man is gifted by the Lord, 3812; in the latter, his own pleasure and lust, sh. 8408, 8409. In the supreme sense it denotes the proprium of the Lord's divine human or the divine good ; in the respective sense, the voluntary proprium of man vivified by divine good, sh. 3813, 5200, 6968, 7850. Flesh and blood denote the divine good and divine truth, thus in the Holy Supper, 3813; lY/. and «A. 4735, 7850, 8682; sh. 9127, 10,283. See Supper. Flesh and blood signify the divine pro- FLO 225 prium in the humanity, 4735. The flesh in which is spirit signifies the internal church; bones only, the external, 6592. Living flesh denotes acknowledgment and faith ; leprosy in it, profanation therewith, 6963. Flesh predicated of the spiritual man denotes the good of truth, 6968. Flesh denotes the divine good of the divine love, which is from the Lord's divine human, and the reciprocal good with man, 7850. The flesh of Sclav, a bird or flying creature, denotes the good or de- light of the external or natural man, 8431 ; compare 8413. In the genuine sense flesh denotes the good of celestial love ; in the opposite sense, the evil of self-love, 9068. The spirit shown to be the true life of man, and the flesh his proprium ; the former at great length, 9818 ; tlie latter in particular, 10,283. The most ancient people did not eat flesh, and the eating thereof considered in itself is somewhat profane ; yet no one is condemned oij this account who eats it without violating the conscience, 1002, 1003. The inhabitants of a certain earth in the universe described who eat no other flesh than that of fishes, 10,161. The Jews were severely prohibited from eating either fat or blood be- cause they were wholly in externals, and would thereby have represented the appropriation and profanation of divine truth and divine good, 10,033. They were permitted to eat the flesh of the sacrifices because the flesh, without the fat and the blood, denotes the proprium of man, 10,040; or the evil of his own love, ill. 10,035. Still it was eaten to represent what is holy in externals, thus the appropriation of celestial good and consociation by love, 8682, 10,040. Specifically, the flesh of sacrifice represented spiritual good, the meat-offering, which was bread and cakes, celestial good, 10,079, end. The flesh of the ram that was eaten denotes the good of the internal man, appropriated by those who are purified from evils and falses, 10,106; e//. 10,109, 10,114. See to Eat. Flesh, when predicated of the Lord, denotes the divine good of the divine love, sh. 10,283. The signification of flesh gene- rally ill. 2i:A sh. 10,283.

Knives of flint denote the truths into which they are initiated who are delivered from their evils, 2039, 2799, 7044. See Circumcision. FLOCKS [ffreges]. 1. He who teaches and leads to the good of cha- rity is a shepherd ; and they who are taught and led are the flock, sh. 343, 3772, 4713, 5913, 6044, 6778, 6786. A flock denotes those who are in the truths and goods of faith, 343, 3767, 3772. More interiorly, shep- herds or keepers of the flock, denote the truths themselves which lead to good, ///. 6044. In the same sense, flocks denote the rational or internal goods themselves, and hence, they who are truly rational or internal men, 2566, 3408, 4505. Flocks and herds denote the goods of the natural man, interior and exterior, 415, 1486, 1565. They denote his supposed goods, which are to be separated in consequence of dis- crepancy with the internal man, 1565, 4250. Animals of the herd denote celestial natural effects, those of the flock celestial rational, 2180. A flock, in the widest sense, denotes all who are in good throughout the whole world, but in a particular sense those only who are imbued with the good of charity and the truths of faith, thus, who are within the church, 3767. Hence, flocks denote churches, and. 226 FLO I! abstractly, the doctrinals of the churches by which the good of charity is imbued, 3767, 3768, 3783. A flock led to drink denotes the in- struction of those who are willing to be led to good from the Word, 3772, 6778, 6786. A flock denotes the interior good of the natural man, which is the good approved by reason ; a herd exterior good, 2566, 4250, 4378, 5913, 7504, 7663, ill, and sh, 10,609. A flock denotes the good of the rational man when a herd is understood to signify the good of the natural ; otherwise, a flock denotes natural domestic good, ill, 3518. Ox and ass denote exterior goods and truths ; flock, and man-servant and maid-servant, interior goods and truths, 4244. A flock denotes charity; a herd, its exterior goods, which are the exercises of charity, 6531, 7663. Flocks denote goods and truths, 4073. Flocks denote interior goods and the truths thence derived ; cattle, interior truths and goods thence derived, 9 1 35 ; but observe that cattle is sometimes predicated both of the flock and the herd, 6049, 6134. See Cattle. The animals belonging to the flock are lambs, sheep, kids, he and she-goats, and rams, by which are denoted affections of good and truth in the internal man ; the animals belonging to the herd are oxen, and he and she-calves, which denote affections of good and truth in the external man, 8937, 9391, briefly, 5913. See Herd, Ox, Goat, Sheep. 2. AbePs offering of the firstlings of his flock to Jehovah, denotes the ascription of holy love to the Lord, thus worship from charity, 350 — 354. Lot's possession of flocks and herds and the strife between his herdmen and Abram's, the goods of the external man separate from the internal, and their discordance, 1562, 1565, 1570. Isaac's acquisition of flocks and herds, and servants, when dwelling in Gerar, the goods and truths of the rational man which are acquired by doc- trine, 3365, 3403, 3408. The strife between his keepers and those of Abimelech about the well that the servants of Isaac had discovered, the opposition of those who teach from external doctrine to those who teach from internal, 3423—3425. Rebeccah's sending Jacob to the flock, the procedure and influx of truth to good not yet rational, 3518. His coming to Haran, and behold a well in the field, and three flocks of sheep lying by it, and the well closed, the state of the church as yet only instructed from the external sense of the Word, 3763 — 3769. Rachel with her father's sheep coming into the field, the affection of interior truth manifested, 3793, 3794. Jacob's watering the flock and kissing Rachel, instruction and conjunction thereby with the doctrine and aff*ection of interior truth, 3799, 3800. His acquisition of flocks and herds in her father's service, the genuine goods and truths which are then acquired, and all the means thereto, 1993, 4005, 4073, 4084, 4087, 4169, 4217. His return home and the division of his flock on the approach of Esau, the arrangement and disposition of all that the natural man has acquired, in order to the influx of divine good, 4250, 4336, 4368, 4378, 4384. See Jacob, Esau. FLOOD, OR DELUGE [diluviuni], 1. The death of the posterity of the most ancient church was occasioned by their total immersion in evils and falses, which is signified by a flood ; their decline briefly described, 660, 661. It was not mankind universally that perished, but only those who were of the church, 662. The flood of Noah de- notes the temptations which they underwent who were capable of re- FLO 227 k^ ■ generation ; and the desolation or devastation of those who were not, 705, 729. Inundations of waters, signify temptation and desolation, because persuasions and false principles actually flow-in from evil spirits; the signification sh. 705, ill. 751. A flood of waters, as dis- tinguished from a flood, signifies the beginning of temptations, or temptations comparatively light, being as to intellectual things only, sh. 739, 752. The fountains of the great deep broken up, and the cataracts of heaven opened, signifies the extremity of temptation as to things voluntary, and things intellectual, 754, sh. l^^"*, 7^)7. The nature of such temptations and devastations, ex. and ill. 7:^7, 760 — 762. Their end and purpose in the establishment of a new church, 765 and sequel. See Noaii. 2. The genius of the antediluvians was very different from that of the people who lived after the flood, 310. Their state was such, when in their integrity, that the whole mind was ruled by love, so that it was one and undivided ; hence, celestial seed was derived to their posterity, 310, 805. The decline from such a state is most perilous, for it perverts the whole mind, insomuch that it can hardly be restored in the other life, 310. The decline of the ante-diluvian church was, in general, like that of subsequent churches ; but it was distinguished by the suffV)cation of remains, 560. The antediluvians fell into the most direful and abominable persuasions, considering themselves as it were gods, and whatever they thought, divine; how self-extinction or suffocation as by a flood is the necesbary consequence of such a state, 562, 563. They held this persuasion to such a degree as not to ac- knowledge any god above themselves, 808; see below, 1268. They immersed the most holy goods and truths in their lusts, and thus de- filed them, 560, 562, 570, 571, 581, 660. They were called Ne- philim, or giants, from the persuasions conceived of their own super- eminence, 580, sh. 581 — 583. Their dire persuasions or phantasies thus originated, were the causes of their extinction and suffbcation, 585. When in their integrity they enjoyed an internal respiration, and dis- coursed together by the representation of ideas in the changes of the face; they were also in the perception of good and truth, 607, 11 18 — 1121. In course of time the internal respiration was changed ; but with those who conceived such dire persuasions, it became of such a quality that every idea of thought was represented in a most deformed shape ; hence, all these became extinct, 607. The way for the pro- duction of remains being closed up, they necessarily perished, for when this is the case, man is no longer man, for then he can no longer be guarded by angels, 660. In their integrity the men of the most ancient church respired with the angels, and their being no longer capable of doing so was the genuine cause of their extinction, ill. 805. The intellectual and the voluntary part with them cohered together in one corrupt form, so that they could not be separated, 1034. Their quality described in ^^>eir integrity and in their decline from experience, seriatim, 1114 — 1128. How magnificently and in what happiness they dwell in heaven, 1115—1117. The quality of the antediluvians who perished described from experience, seriatim, 1265 — 1272. Their abode is in a hell under the left foot, where a misty mountain appears, by which they are separated from the other hells and the world of Q 2 228 FLU ■I spirits, 1266, 311, 581. Their influx is so deadly, that if they were permitted in the world of spirits the human race would perish, 1266, 1270. They breathe nothing but hatred, and treat one another most cruelly, 1267. How the author was guarded, in order that he might know their quality, and by what means they were discovered to him, 1268 — 1270. They confessed that they had thought much of God, and persuaded themselves that they were gods, in which they were confirmed by dreams, 1268, compare 1122. \Vhcn they descended into their hell, their phantasies against the Lord were represented by a noise from the mountain, 1270. Their weakness is such that they were thrust down by an infant, 1271. Their women and children re- presented, and their glory in the latter, 1272, compare 112:^. Some less evil described, but not of the number who perished, or Nephilim, 1124, 1265. 3. The promise that the earth shall not be destroyed any more by a flood denotes that such a deadly persuasion cannot again exist, 1 035, 1051. The church before the flood is calkd the most ancient church, that after the flood the ancient church, 1148. The consummation of the most ancient church described by the flood, was a last or genertil judgment, besides which there have been three others, 4333. There are two kinds of spiritual inundations or floods, the one, of lusts per- taining to the right part of the brain, the other of falses pertaining to the left part; the case described from experience, 5725, see above, 739,754. The waters of a flood denote temptations as to things intel- lectual; heat, or a hot wind as to things voluntary, 739, 5215. FLOUR, FINE [similago]. Fine flour, and oil, and frankincense, denote the whole of charity ; fine flour its spiritual, oil its celestial, and frankincense its grateful essence ; their use in the sacrifices, ex. 2177. See Meat-offering, Sacrifice. Fine flour made into cakes denotes the celestial principle of love ; farina or meal the spiritual, 2177. Fine flour, or the farina of fine flour, denotes celestial good and the good of faith ; cakes, both conjoined, 2177, 3880. Fine flour signifies charity towards the neighbour; mixed with oil, love, 4581. Fine wheat flour [simila] denotes the spiritual ; honey, its sweetness ; and oil, its good, 5620. Fine flour signifies truth producing good, 7966, and truth derived from good, both ill. 9995, 10,136. It signi- fies good prepared for use by reduction into series or truths, 10,303. See to Grind, Farina, Corn, Bread, Cake, Wheat, Barley. FLOWER [fos\. When a man is reborn spiritual life flows into him, as the heat of the sun into a tree, causing it to produce leaves and flowers, 5115. The tree flowering represents the state near re- generation, 5116. Flowers denote the scientifics of truth, and gene- rally truths ; the fruits by which they are followed, good, ill. and sh. 9553, 10,185. The cherubim, and palms, and flowers that were sculptured upon the walls of the temple, denote providence, wisdom, and intelligence which constitute the state of heaven, 8369. The spheres of charity and faith are sometimes perceived as odours, re- sembling the sweet scent of flowers, 1519. See Fruit, Vegetation. FLUCTUATION. After a state of temptation the mind some- times fluctuates, if the man is celestial, between good and evil ; if he is spiritual, between truths and falses ; and if he is natural, between FOO 229 cupidities and their contraries, ill. 847, 848, 857. Fluctuation be- tween truths and falses is denoted by the ark floating on the waters, 789. See Flood. The confluence of scientifics is denoted by the sea ; reasonings therefrom concerning divine things, by its waves and tides, 9755. FLUXION, the, of the form of heaven is derived from the love of the Lord flowing in, 3889. The author's perception of its flux or gy- rations, and their correspondence, in the lowest sphere, with the human brain, 4041. See Form, Influx, Heart. FLY \j)iu8ca]. See Insect. FOAM, OR Froth [spumd]. The scholastic learning of this world compared to filthy spume by the spirits of another earth, 3348. Fil- thiness and scum or foam denotes what is evil and false, 4744 ; also the profanation of good, and filthy loves, 8408, 10,105. The fig-tree reduced to froth, cited, 51 13, 7643. See Filth. FOE [inimicus]. See Enemy. YOO^ [cibus]. There is celestial, spiritual, and natural food con- sisting, generally, in knowledges of faith and works of charity, thus goods and truths, and the nature of each, 12, ^Q — 59, 676—681, par- ticularly 1480, 1695. The food of the spiritual man is described by the herb yielding seed, which denotes all truth having respect to use ; and by the tree yielding fruit, which denotes the good of faith, 56, 57, The food of the natural man is described by the green herb, because it consists especially in scientifics, 56, 59. Goods and their delights are signified by foods, because it is by these that the soul is sustained, 678. Goods and truths are the genuine foods of man, and without them he is only a dead man, 680. Food, in the Word, always denotes spiritual and celestial food, thus faith and love, sh. 680. Food in the other life is whatever comes forth from the mouth of the Lord, by which alone spiritual life is sustained, 681. Man is not only aff*ected but sustained by pleasures and their delights, providing there be good in them from the Lord, ill. 995 ; see below, 5147. Foods succeed each other in order from the celestial degree to the natural, insomuch that one kind of food corresponds to the other, 1480, 4459. Spirits have not the sense of taste, but the appetite of knowing in its stead, the satisfaction of which is their food, 1973. See Taste. The food of evil spirits is the contrary of wisdom, &c., thus all that is false, by which also they are equally sustained, 1695. The food with which the Lord continually supplies the angels is love and charity, thus the divine humanity itself, 2838, 5147, 9396. Whatsoever conduces to intelligence and wisdom is celestial food, and what relates to the Lord the very felicity thereof, 3085. The spiritual food proper to man is to know, ill. 31*14. The appetite and savour of food is of the soul, which by these delights, or external goods, administers to its body; the afl'ection* and relish of know- ledge, and the introduction of good illustrated, 3570. The taking of food with another signifies conjunction by love and charity, 3596. See Feasts. An illustration of the manner in which ends ascend, from the nourishment of the body, and the correspondence of corporeal, spiritual, and celestial foods ; moreover what it is to be in externals and in inter- nals, 4459. Spiritual food is science, intelligence, and wisdom, and hereby infants and youths who enter the other life actually grow to maturity, 4792, 5576. Food in general denotes celestial and spiritual 'M 230 FOO ^tl II! Illl good, ill. and«A. 51 17, 5360, 5435. The angels derive their recreation and nourishment from the exercises of love and charity as men from corporeal food ; illustrated by the greater nutrition of the body when food is eaten joyfully, 51 17, 557C, G078. Food, in the genuine sense, signifies divine good in exercise or act, 5147, end. Food is what nou- rishes the internal man or the soul, thus goods and truths ; in general, whatsoever is conducive to use, ill. 5'293. Food denotes truth when adjoined to good, 5340, 5342 ; consequently, the truth of good, 5426 ; or the good of spiritual truth, 5410, 5487, 5582, 5588, 5655, 5733. Spiritual food, which nourishes minds, consists in the things of intelli- gence and wisdom, thus in the understanding of truth and the willing of good, ill. and sh. 5576. In the spiritual world, as in the natural world, when foods adequate to use fail them, they become hungry, and it is then evening with them, 5579, 6078, 6110. See Supper, Evening. Sustenance by meat and drink signifies the influx of good and truth through heaven from the Lord, by which the internal man is sustained, ///. and sh. 5915, 6106, 6576. Scientifics and truths sus- tain the soul ; hence to feed signifies to be instructed, ///. and s/i. 6078. Goods and truths, and the knowledges of such, constitute the sfiiritual life of those who are in heaven ; states of reception illustrated by the times of the day, &c., 6110. All food in general is signified by bread, which denotes spiritual life, or the good of love and charity, 6118, 9545. See Bread. All food requires the accompaniment of drink, illustrating how good appetites truth, 8562. Food and drink signify the goods of love and the truths of faith, 8562; ///. and «//. 9139, 9396, 9527. Falses unwittingly held by the good, and which arc therefore susceptible of being bent to good, may be compared to foods which are unclean to the sight, but still savory ; falses derived from evil, to foods which are really unclean and stinking; and truths adjoined to evils, to foods which appear clean, but are interiorly corrupt or poisonous, 9192. A table, as containing food, denotes the receptacle of the goods of love and charity, thus heaven itself as receptive of such good ; and in the opposite sense, 9527, 9543, 9545. Spiritual food in general is all good, but in particular it is the good that is acquired by truth passing into will and act, 5820. Hence the signification of teeth, ill. and «/^ 9052; compare 5175. See Teeth. In times of temptation, inconsequence of the hatred of evil spirits to all that is good and true, the only food that they leave to man is compared to the green herb, 59. The' foods which the Lord gives are compared to the herb yielding seed and the tree yielding fruit, to receive which is to come into tranquillity and peace, 59. To ride upon the high places of the earth signifies the fruition of internal peace and felicity ; to be fed with the heritage of Jacob, external tranquiHity and delight, >^d. Straw and provender for the camels denotes the common scientifics which are the food of the natural man, 3114, 3146. Food stored uj) in the cities denotes truths concealed in the interiors of the natural mind, ///. 5342. To buy food denotes the appropriation of truths by good, or the procuring of the good of spiritual truth, 5410, 5435, 5582, jitSS, bdo^. The Israelites forbidden to kindle a fire and prepare food on the sabbath, denotes that man is not to act from his own loves, or teach from his own intelligence, ill. 10,362. The inhabitants of Jupiter dress their food not to gratify their palate, but for the sake of use, and that thev who dress their I!! FOO 231 food to gratify their palate plunge into luxuries, sensual indulgence, and stupidity of mind, 8378. The entrance of man into the other life illustrated by food passing into the human system, 5175. See to Eat, to Drink. FOOT [^pes]. The feet, generally, denote things natural, such as pertain to the ultimate life of man, 259, 2162, 3147, 3148, 3761, 3986, 4280, 4382. The sole of the foot and the heel such as are more and more exterior, 259, 1748, 2162, 3304, 4951, 6406. The ancients considered celestial and spiritual things in reference to the head and the face; the affections of the rational man derived therefrom, such as charity and mercy, to the breast; those of the natural man, to the feet, the sole of the foot, and the heel, according to degree, 259 ; sh, 2162. The sole of the foot and the heel denote the ultimate natural parts ; the shoe, which invests them, and yet can be put off, the cor- poreal, sh. 1748, 3540, 3761; from experience, 5378. Moses was commanded to put his shoes from off his feet, because the lowest sen- sual things cannot be retained when man approaches the Lord, ilL 6844 ; compare 7864 and context. The lace or thread of the shoe denotes what is false; its latchet or fastening, evil, 1748. Abram's requesting the three angels to wash their feet denotes that somewhat natural, in order to better perception, should be put on, ill. and sh, 2162. The God of Israel seen as to his feet, under which was as it were a work of sapphire stone, denotes that they only saw the externals of the church represented in natural things, 2162. Such natural repre- sentations, proceeding from internals, are denoted by the place of Jehovah's feet, and by his footstool, sh, 2162. See Footstool. It was customary in the representative church to wash the feet, which denotes the purification of the natural man, sh. 3147. To wash the feet was also a token of charity and humiliation, indicating that they did not reflect upon the evils of others except to reform them, 3147. It was customary for travellers and sojourners to wash the feet, because journeying, &c., signifies the life, 3148. The heels denote outermost goods, 3540, 4938. The heels, the soles, the hollow of the feet, and hoofs signify the ultimates of the natural man, sh. 7729, 9391. The hoofs of the horse in particular, either the truth or the false in ultimates, or the lowest intellectual things, ill. and sh. 3923 ; ill. 6400, 7729, 9391. See Hoof, Horse. The foot to be cut off if it scandalize, denotes the natural ability destroyed when it lifts itself against spiritual things, br. sh. 4302. According to the foot (or progress) of the flocks and herds, and according to the foot of the sons, denotes the conjunc- tion of good and truth proceeding according to the acquired ability of the natural man, 4382, 4383. The spirits who belong to the province of the feet are natural men ; those who belong to the soles of the feet more grossly natural, 4403. Seriatim passages on the correspondence of the feet, of the soles of the feet, and of the heels with the grand man, 4938 — 4952. Celestial things are terminated in spiritual, and these again in things natural, to which the feet, the soles of the feet, and the heels correspond, 4938 ; from the author's experience, 4939. They who are merely natural dwell under the feet and the soles of the feet in various and most distinct places, according to character ; many varieties described, 4940 — 4951. Such places in general are called th% lower earth, 4945. To lift up the hand denotes power in what is spi- 232 FOR ritual; to lift up the foot power in what is natural, 5327; ill 5328. "When the three heavens are presented to sight as one man, the celestial or inmost heaven forms the head, the spiritual or second heaven the body, and the first or ultimate heaven the feet, 5328. The spiritual world has, as it were, its feet and the soles of its feet in the natural, 5945, 6436. The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor the law- giver from between his feet, until Shiloh come, denotes the government of the natural man by influx through the celestial heaven until the Lord's advent. Hi. 6371—6373. The feet signify lower or inferior things in which are interiors, ill. 6 163. Hence feet denote the ulti- mates of the church, of the Word, &c., 9406. The things which are under the feet of God are the ulti mates of the W^ord, and are called the place of his feety and footstool, sh. 9406. The thumb of the right foot denotes the intellectual faculty in the lowest heaven, 10,063. To wash the hands and the feet is to purify both the internal and external, 10,241. To tread upon serpents and scorpions is to destroy falses and evils, 10,019. To tread down or bruise, predicated of the serpent's head, denotes the depression of evil so that it shall only affect the natural man, ill. 258, 259. As to Jacob's being named from the heel, see Jacob. As to the signification of fractured feet or hands, 2162. FOOTSTOOL [scabellum pediun]. Heaven is my throne denotes the celestial and spiritual interiors ; earth is my footstool, the rational and natural exteriors corresponding thereto, sh. 2162, 5313. Other passages explained of external worship corresponding to internal, 2162. A footstool signifies divine truth below heaven, such as the Word in the literal sense, upon which the Word in the internal sense is made to rest, 9166, 9406. See Foot. FORCES [vires], denote the power of truth ; strength, the power of good, iV/. 6343, 6344, 8710. There are always two forces which contain all things in their connection and form, the thing contained being be- tween them, 3627, 3628. The interior of these forces is a living force, the exterior not living, but in correspondence and reaction with it, 3628. Description of certain spirits who correspond to the passive forces of the membranes that cover the viscera, 5557. There are two forces acting in all temptations, the one of falses which are injected from hell into the external man, the other of truths which are insinuated by the Lord into the internal, 8168. No one can resist temptation by his own powers, they being those of the falses in which he is, 8172—8175. The Lord alone subjugated all to himself by his own powers, 2025. In innocence there are innate forces, because it pertains to celestial love and the voluntary part of man, 6367. Recipient substances and forms are the subjects of life, and the results of their mutations and modifi- cations are forces which are properly called living, 8603. The recipient faculties of man are the will and understanding, to which the heart and lungs correspond ; what their vital forces signify, &c., 9050. See Power. FOREHEAD [frons]. All things whatsoever in the ideas of angels have some reference to the human form ; thus the lintel and the door- posts of a house have a similar signification to the forehead and the hand, 7847. A sign upon the hand and a memorial between the eyes denote perpetual presence or remembrance in all thought and action, 8066, 8067; or perpetually in the will and perpetually in the under- FOR 233 I standing, 8090. The interiors are expressed in the face, those of love particularly in the forehead, 9936. See Face. Hence the forehead, and also frontlets between the eyes, denote celestial love, and they were worn as a sign of love to God ; in the opposite sense they denote infer- nal love, sh. 9936, 10,061. FORESIGHT [prcevidentia]. See Providence, View. FORESKIN [prceputiiim]. The organs of generation correspond to the conjunction of good and truth ; the foreskin to the obscuration of good and truth in the most ancient church, because that church was at the time an internal man ; and to their defilement in the ancient church, because that church was respectively an external man, 4462. On account of the defilement of good and truth in externals circum- cision was instituted by the ancient church, but it was unknown to the most ancient, 4462. The Philistines in particular, who did not conform to this rite, and cared little about charity, are called the foreskinned or uncircumcised, 3412, 4462, 1197. The foreskin signifies the defile- ment of all celestial and spiritual love by the impurities of the external man, which impede their influx, 7225. The foreskinned male signifies one who is not in the truth of faith in consequence of its defilement, thus what defiles and impedes the influx of truth, 2056. The flesh of the foreskin denotes the impure loves of self and the world, which per- tain to the proprium, and which impede the influx of celestial love, 2041. Those who are in the life of defiled loves are called foreskinned or uncircumcised, 2049. Such are they in whom the life of charity is not formed, whether they be in the church or out of it, 1197, 2049. To be foreskinned or uncircumcised is to be impure; to be of uncircum- cised lips is to be impure in respect to those things which are of doc- trine, 7225. Moses was so called on account of the impure Jewish church, 7245. The cutting ofi* of the foreskin signifies the removal of defiled loves, 7045. See Circumcision. FOREST [si/lva]. When the angels discourse of intelligence and wisdom, thus of perceptions and knowledges, there are represented paradises, vineyards, forests, meadows, &c., 3220. A forest denotes the church as to science, or the knowledges of good and truth, thus a religious system or religion, ill. and sh. 9011. See Grove, Tree, Vegetation. FORGET, to [obliviscijy denotes the gradual abolition of repug- nance by delay and habit, 3615. To forget denotes disjunction and removal, 51/0; ill. 5278, 5352. See Memory. FORM, denotes the very essence or substance of a thing, 3821, 4223, 4224, 4985, 8603, 3484. When mention is made in the Word of beautiful in form and beautiful in aspect, form has reference to the esse of a thing, thus to good, aspect to the existere, or beauty thence derived, thus to truth, 3821, 4985, 5199. The functions of the viscera and organs of the body make a one with their organical forms, such forms being really produced by their functions or uses, ill. 4223. Be- sides these, there are forms or substances which are inscrutable in natural light, 4224. The conjunction of good and truth in a material form is like the conjunction of the heart and lungs, ill. 3889. Truth is the form of good, that is, when good is so formed that it can be intellectually perceived it is called truth, 3049, 5337, 9474. Good cannot come into form or sight except by truth, and truth cannot exist ( 234 FOR I iiiii ii^i except from good as its essence, 9637, 9781, 9995. There are two forms of good, internal and external, 4988. The idea of form, or of truth as the form of good, illustrated by what is honest and decorous, 4574. The form in which truths and goods consociate is derived from the form of heaven, 3584, 9878. In like manner the form of the brain and its functions in the body, 4040 — 4054. The form of heaven is stupendous, and exceeds all human intelligence, 4041, 9877. The things which are in heaven, however, are represented in the world of spirits by forms to the similitude of which accede forms in the world, 4043, 10,270. See Heaven. A discourse with a philosopher in the other life concerning forms, that one is from another in man, and that the operations of mind are variations of form under changes of state, ill, 6320. All things both in man and in universal nature are formed from one another successively, and not by a continuum becoming more and more pure; hence things interior and exterior are distinct from each other, the former being within the latter ; tlius they succeed in order, 0405, 8603. He who does not thus conceive of formation cannot comprehend the internal and external of man ; neither can he conceive otherwise but that when the external dies, the internal man dies also, 6405. See Degree. In accordance with this doctrine of forms and of influx, everything of thought and of will flows in by means of a wonderful form, which is the form of heaven, from the Lord, 5288, 5980, 0007. All the operations of the mind are variations of form, 6326. Inferior thought circulates according to the form of the clneri- tious substance in the brain ; but the superior forms which are in heaven are altogether incomprehensible, 6007. Scientifics are arranged into a heavenly form when man is in heavenly love, and it is that love which arranges or forms them, 6690. Thus it is good that reduces truths into a heavenly form, 3316, 3470, 4302, 5704, 5709, 6028; or into series, 10,303. See Series. Hence, also, truth is called the form of good, 9840. The interior form receptive of good and truth from heaven is depraved and distorted by hereditary evil, 4317. This form, however, was created in all the fairness of good and truth, and recovers the native beauty of its form by regeneration, 3804. The first form, by virtue of which man is man, is his internal ; by this internal form the Lord is united to him : on the other hand, so far as man gives himself up to evil, he separates himself from it, 1999. The human form is the form of heaven, and is perfect and beautiful in proportion to the communication of affection and thought with heavenly societies; thus good forms man into an image of heaven, as evil forms him into an image of hell, 0005, 0020, 3513, 3584. See Good, Heaven, Evil, Hell. It is by the good of love, therefore, that all truth with the regenerate is disposed into a heavenly form and preserved therein, ill. 9840 ; and he is in the form of heaven who is in the good of love con- joined with the truth of faith, 5199. The conjunctions which take place in heaven are called forms in respect to good, and societies in respect to persons, 8409. The form of divine truth, or the Word, is its perception, thought, and enunciation ; hence it is various in the several heavens and with man on earth, 8920. Unless it were so accom- modated in form it could not be received, thus it could not flow into any faith nor into the life of faith, 8922. The form of heaven is im- pressed upon it by the Lord, and through its medium the same form FOU 235 r. is impressed upon man, 4040. When the Lord appears it is always in an angelic or human form, 9359, 9972. Before the Lord's advent into the world, he assumed the human form by transition through heaven ; the human form being his own form or divine presence in heaven, 10,579. See Lord. The whole heaven is arranged by the Lord according to the divine form in himself; his spiritual kingdom being according to the ordination of affection in his divine human, 3189. The primitive human form is not in the form of the body, but in a most perfect form known to the Lord alone, which conspires and tends to that, 3033. Hence the human form is put on bv all angels and men, but the Lord alone is man, 3034, 0020. All organical forms, which are substances, are nothing but recipients of influx from the Lord; and they receive it according to their correspondence, as organs, with the only life, 3484, 3743, 6872, 8003. The form of the habitation or tabernacle shewn to Moses on Mount Sinai is representative of heaven where the Lord is, 9481, 9570, 9577, 10,270. The forms of all its vessels also are representative of celestial and spiritual things, 9482, 10,270. See Tent. Form, generally, illustrated by the procedure of that which is formed, or its derivation, from internal to external, 5337. FORTIFICATIONS \munimenta\ denote truths so far as they defend good, 7297. See Castle, Tower. FORTUNE. The all of fortune is from the divine providence of the Lord in the ultimates of order, 5049, 0493, 0494. The spiritual spheres that are about man produce the effects which are ascribed to fortune, which are therefore of the ultimate sphere of Divine Provi- dence, 5179. All fortune, contingency, or chance, is of the Divine Providence acting secretly and incomprehensibly, 5508, 0485. All misfortune is owing to the sphere of evil spirits prevailing, who have the art to make occurrences appear like chance, 0493. Things the most minute and apparently trivial, even to the cast of dice, are directed from the spiritual world ; the providence of the Lord ruling all, 0493, 6494. The case argued, 7007. The ancients expressed their sense of the Divine Providence in all things by the very terms in which they alluded to apparent chances, ill. 90 10. See Providence, to Prosper. FORTY, &c. See Numbers. FOUNDATION, the [futidamentu7n']t or common basis, denotes the truth of faith derived from good ; such is the signification of the foundation of the earth, the foundations of the walls of the New Jerusalem, &c., 9643. The foundation of the altar denotes the ulti- mate or sensual life of man, 10,028. The church upon earth is the foundation of heaven, 4060, ill. 4618, 9430. The external is uni- versally the foundation and receptacle of the internal, 6299. The fundamental of all loves is conjugial love, 686, 2733, 2738, 5053. The influx of innocence in early life is the fundamental principle upon which the intellectual or rational man is afterwards built up, 5126. It is of fundamental importance that the thoughts of those who are to be together in the other life agree together, 5182. The foundations of the mountains signify hell, sh. 1691. FOUNDER [co7tyiator]. An artificer or maker of graven images denotes one who fashions what is false from his own intelligence ; a founder, him who makes it appear like good, 424, 9852, 10,406. See Engraving, Fashion. 236 FRA III FOUNTAIN [/ons]. Fatness and the fountain of lives {scaturiyo vitarum) denotes the celestial principle, which has relation to love, 353. The love of the Lord and the love of the neighbour are the verimost fountains of life, from which all and everything flow out, 14.")0. A fountain of waters in the desert denotes natural truth which has not yet received life, Vyi7 ; compare 195G, 1957. A fountain in like manner as a well denotes the Word, also doctrine from the Word, and truth itself, 8h. 2/02. In the supreme sense it denotes truth divine, 3005, 3082, ill. 3131, 3137. A fountain denotes pure truth, a well truth less pure, 3096, 3424. The Word is called a fountain and a well of living waters, because the literal sense contains divine truths, 3424. The Word is called a well where the natural mind is treated of, which perceives nothing of itself but the literal sense ; and it is called a foun- tain, when the rational mind and its perception of the internal sense is treated of, 3705, 0774. Waters denote truths; rivers, intelligence; and fountains, wisdom, which are all from the Word, 4097. A door of fountains denotes entrance both to truths or falses, thus the literal sense of the Word which opens the way to either, according as man is in good or evil, 4801, 4891. The twelve fountains of Ehm denote truths in all abundance, 8308. The fountain of the waters of life, the truths and goods of faith, 8508. The fountain said to be opened in Mount Parnassus denotes intelligence, 4900. Such is the connection and dependence of all things that they must receive influx from one fountain of life, 4524, 5005. The denial of this single source of good, thus self-merit, or the self- righteousness of man is the fountain of nu- merous evils, 57p8, 10,033. The heart and lungs are the two foun- tains of all motion, action, and sensatiou in the external man or mere body, 3035. FOUR, Fourteen, Forty, &c. See Numkers. FOWL [volatile]. Fowls or flying creatures denote truths ; in the opposite sense, falses, 1834. The flesh of a bird denotes the good of truth, or the good of faith, 8131. See Bird. FRACTURED or BROKEN [fractus seu fractvra']. Those who were fractured in the feet or hands represented such as are principled in perverted external worship, 2102. See to Break. FRAGRANCE. When the perceptions of the angels are turned into odours, they are sensated like fragrance from aromatics and flowers, 5021. Fragrant spices were used in the worship of the ancients, be- cause of their correspondence with the grateful perceptions of faith and charity, 4748. Fragrant aromatics are of two kinds, answering re- spectively to the celestial and spiritual states, 10,291, 10,293. Fra- grances in general signify the aflections of truth derived from good, 10,295. See Frankincense, Incense, Aromatics. FRANKINCENSE [thus']. The frankincense used with oil and fine flour^m the sacrifices denotes the grateful perception of charity and love, 2177. Frankincense, incense, and odours in ointments, * were made representative because odour corresponds to perception, 4748. Pure frankincense denotes the truth of celestial good, 9993, 10,252; thus, it denotes inmost truth, which is spiritual good, ill. 10,236,' 10,303. Generally, frankincense denotes the truth of faith ; and hence oil or gold, &c., is mentioned along with it to denote the good of love, 10,177. The gold of Sheba signifies the good of love, its frankincense FRU 237 the truth of faith, thus the celestial and spiritual internals of worship, 1171, 9293. 10,177. See Odour, Incense, Aromatics. FRAUD [fraus]. See Deceit. FREEDOM [liberum]. See Liberty. FRIEND [amicus]. The spiritual man is called by the Lord a friend and a son of light ; but the celestial man, a son of God, as in the gospel of John, 51. FRIENDSHIP [amicitia']. Friendships and civilities are not charity, but they partake of charity in proportion to their sincerity, 1158. Mutual love has respect to the good in man, and to the man for the sake of the good ; friendship accedes to self-love, and is opposed to mutual love or charity in proportion as it does so, 3875. How many- societies there are in the other life of mere sensualists, who have re- garded nothing but external satisfaction in friendships ; how they take away all the aff'ection of truth and of good appertaining to others, and how sad their lot is, 4054. There are also numerous societies called societies of friendship, and that such take away delights from others, 4804. There are also societies of interior friendship, founded upon the afi'ection of spiritual things, and true love for one another, 4805. As to the friendship of the good for those who are signified by their ene- mies in the Word, 9255. FROGS [ranee], from the river of Egypt, signify reasonings from mere falses, 720.5, 7295, sh. 7351, 73.)2, 7384, 9331. The Egyp- tians prayed to be delivered from the evil of the frogs because infernal spirits have no pleasure in reasoning from mere falses, inasmuch as they cannot do evil thereby, 7392. See Egypt. FRONTLETS [frontalia]. See Forehead. FROST [pruina]. See Hoar-Frost, Cold. FROTH [spuma]. See Foam. FRUCTIFY AND MULTIPLY, to [fructificare et multiplicare]. Fructification is predicated of states of love ; multiplication of faith or truth, 43, ^'o, 913, 983, ill, 1015, 2840, 2847. The fruit, which is predicated of love, contains the seed by which it multiplies itself, 43. The fructification of good and the multiplication of truth take place in the external man ; the former in his aff'cctions, the latter in his memory, 913. The fructification of truth is from the good that is in it; and to such a degree, that truths are indefinitely multiplied with the good however simple they had been in the life of the body, 5527. See Fruit,, Multiplication. FRUIT [fructus]. Fruits that are truths are denoted by sons, fruits that are goods by daughters, 55. The gift of the Lord to the celestial man is fruit, to the spiritual man, seed, ^7. The tree yielding fruit is the good of faith, 57. The fruit of the tree in the garden of which they were not to eat, is the good and truth of faith which are not to be thought of as man*s own, 198—200. The fruits of the ground denote works of faith without charity, which pertain to the external man only, 348. Good works are called the fruit of faith in the exter- nal sense, but not so in the internal sense, unless they contain charity in which is love to the Lord, and in this love the Lord himself, 1873. The fruit of faith is the fruit of good, which is of love and charity pro- ceeding by faith, 2349, 3140, 3207, 3324, ill. 3427, ill, and sh. 3934, 3995, 4003, 4083, 5351, 9337. The fruit of faith is nothing but a 'i 238 FUL GAI 239 life according to the precepts of faith, which life and not the precepts is saving, 4663. The fruit of the belly denotes the conjunction of truth and good springing out of their acknowledgment in faith and act, 391 1. See Boy, Conjunction, to Conceive. The fruit of a tree denotes the faculty of knowing good; its viridity, what is sensitive of truth, 7690, 7691. Fruits are the works and goods of charity, sh. 7690. To fructify denotes the increase of good, and this is the first and the last, because the end, sh. 9337. See to Fructify. Fruit denotes the good of life, which is the good of wisdom, 9353. FUGITIVE, Flight [profuyus, fuga]. Flight denotes the last time, in particular the time of death with every individual, 34. To be a fugitive and vagabond is to have no knowledge of what is true and good, 382, 388. To flee away and fall signifies to be overcome, 1689. To fly from the face of any one is not to endure his presence, thus, in- dignation, &c., 1923, 1933. The flight of Jacob from Ilaran signifies the separation of good, 4 1 1 3, 4 1 1 1, 4 1 20. Joseph leaving his garment and fleeing away out of doors, signifies spiritual truth separated and left defenceless, 5008, 5009, 5029. Moses flying from Pharaoh, the divine law separated from falses, 6772. His flying from the serpent, horror on account of the sensual principle separated, 6950. The Egyp- tians who feared the Lord causing their servants and their cattle to flee into the houses, the concealment and reservation of natural goods and truths in the interiors, 7563. The flight of the children of Israel from Egypt, separation from the falses of evil, 8142. The Egyptians flying from them, separation from good and truth, 8218. Their'flying against the sea, that such immerse themselves in the falses of evil, 8227. The old inhabitants of Canaan put to flight, the removal of evils and falses, 9332, 9333. See to Expel. Flight signifies removal from a state of love and innocence ; the prayer that it be not in the winter nor on the sabbath day, ex. 3755, 3756; compare 35. "Sin lieth at the door'* explained ; if only it is put to flight, love and charity will enter, 364. The Lord is continually putting evils and falses to flight, but this is only done by conscience, and when that is relaxed there is no medium of influx, 1835. Supplication and worship avail nothing if evils are not shunned, illustrated by the case of the guilty homicide flying to the altar from which he was to be taken and slain, 9014. As to the flyin* of a bird, see Wings. ^ FULFIL, to [implere] an engagement (understood of service, &c.), denotes study, or the state arrived at that was the end of study, 3830, 3840, 3845, 3847. To fulfil the period, or forty days, of embalmment denotes the state of preparation for the removal of evils and falses by temptations, 6505, 9506. To fulfil all things written of the Lord in the law of Moses, and in the Prophets and in the Psalms, denotes as to the internal sense, 5620, 7933. The common idea concerning the Lord's fulfilment of the law is erroneous ; its fulfilment consisted in the subjugation of the hells, and the reduction of the heavens to order 10,239. See Full, to Fill. FULL, FvhUESs [plenum, pletiitudo]. The full of days denotes those that are confirmed, 2348. The fulness of times or states, pre- dicated of the church, signifies the end, 2905. It is predicated of the Lord's coming when there was no longer any good, not even natural good with the Jewish people, 3398. To be filled full, or replete, sig- nifies to reign, because whatever the mind is replete with rules the man, ill. 7648. The hands or fists full denotes potency fully equal to recep- tion, 7518. Every state has its beginning, its progression, and its end ; the latter is called its fulness, ill. 8750. Fulness signifies all or abundance, for multitude is predicated of truth, magnitude of good, and fulness of both, ill. 6297. That is a plenum in which there is good or use, 5214. Fulness is predicated of the regenerate state, when man is receptive of good and truth from the Lord, 2636. The state is not full when good is regarded from truth, but when truth is regarded from good : for in this case, the good is receptive of innocence, 7839. With those who are in good there is a fulness of truth, because their truths have extension into heaven. 5478. When the fulness of good is deficient in any society of angels, it is supplied from some neighbouring one, 7836. It is necessary that there be a plenum of spirits every- where, in order to make a continuum between the Lord and man, illus- trated by the state of the spiritual heaven before the Lord's advent, 8054. See to Fill, to Fulfil. FURNACE [fornax]. The smoke of a furnace denotes the most dense falsity; its fire, the vilest evil, ill. and sh. 1861. Man is no- thing but evil, and evil continually exhales from him as from a furnace, 5354. A furnace has the same signification as the fire which it con- tains, hence, it denotes the evils of lusts, 7519 ; the ashes of a furnace, falses derived from such evils, 7519. Its smoke going up like the smoke of a furnace denotes somewhat obscure, like the obscurity of lusts, 8821. A brick furnace or brick-kiln denotes worship derived from the falses signified by bricks, 1296; or the lust of the falses de- rived from evil, 7519. An oven, the delight experienced in the natural man by the influx of interior goods ; in the opposite sense, the delight of infernal loves, which are lusts, sh. 7356. See to Bake. FUSE OR MELT, to. See Engraving. FUTURE. The spirits of those who have been very solicitous concerning the future described ; their influx, &c., 5177, 5178. G. GAD. See Tribes. GAHAM [gacham]. See Nahor. GAIN [lucnmi]. The cupidity of avarice with the Jews illustrated by the sale of Joseph ; no gain denotes no profit nor eminence, 4751. How often the truths of the church are only regarded on account of gain and honour, the love of which must be removed before man can be regenerated, 5280. Where the love of gain exists there cannot be the love of truth, ill. 5433. Unless the truths of the church be conjoined by good with the internal man, whosoever professes thera can have no other end than gain, 5449. In such cases they may be as capable as others of teaching the truth, but they do not confess it to themselves, rather they see the contrary, 5464. Gain denotes everything false derived from evil, which perverts the judgments of the mind and withdraws it from truth and good, sh. 8711. Gains and honours are a blessing to man when he is in the true order of his life, otherwise they are curses, 9184. All the blandishments of the natural » ^ ■ 240 GAR man, whether opulence, dignity, or wealth, are understood hy gain, and are signified by the gift that blinds and perverts, 9265. GALBANUM, denotes the affection of interior truth in the in- ternal man, 10,294. See Incense. GALEED, the heap set by Jacob and Laban to be a witness, de- notes the quality of the conjunction between them as representative persons, ill. 4190, 4197. GALL [/el]. Judgment turned to gall and the fruits of righte- ousness to hemlock, denotes truths and goods perverted, 1488. De- scription of the spirits that correspond to the i)ancreatic, hepatic, and and cystic ducts, 5185: and they that constitute the eall-bladder, 3186, 5187. GAMMADIM, the [Gammadcei], in the towers of Tyre (soldiers, supposed to be swordsmen), signify knowledges of interior truth, 4599. GANGLIA. See Gland. GARDEN [hortus]. A garden signifies intelligence; its being planted by Jehovah, that it springs from divine influx ; its being in Eden eastward, that it is grounded in the celestial state of love, 99, 100. The celestial church is described by the garden of Eden ; its perceptions by all manner of trees; its good by fruits, &c., 1069. When the human mind is compared to a garden or plantation, the cor- respondence extends to waters and rivers; and in the most ancient times wisdom and intelligence were actually called by such names, sh. 108, more fully, 2702. From this correspondence the ancients per- formed worship in gardens and groves, but it was prohibited when the places themselves were worshiped, sh. 2702, 4552. A garden denotes good and truth with man, with a difference according to cultivation ; the midst of a garden, the celestial interior from which all perception is derived, 225. To build a house and dwell in it, is predicated of the will; to plant a garden, of the understanding, 710. Tbe trees of the garden of Eden denote inmost or intellectual perceptions ; the trees of Lebanon, such as the cedar, rational perceptions ; oak-groves, the perceptions of the external man or of scientifics, 144:^. Woods denote scientific persuasions occupying and ruling the mind ; a garden, truth, 9642. Tlie rational mind is called the garden of Jehovah when its intcHigence is derived from a celestial origin, 1588; and the garden of God when spiritual, 4014. The regenerate man is called Eden as to good, and the garden of Jehovah as to truth, 5376. Gardens, &c., derive their signification from representatives in the other life, 1069, 9841, 10,644, from experience, 3220. The immense extension of the paradisiacal gardens, the beauty and variety of the trees, thus repre- sented, are ineffable, from exp. 1622. The heavens in which they appear correspond to the chamber of the eye ; and they appear, to- gether with many other wonderful representations, when the superior angels are discoursing intellectually concerning truths, 4528. How the spirits of Mercury oppose themselves to such representations, and endeavour to change or disturb them unless they perceive them intel- lectually, 7071, 7072. GARMENT [vestis]. 1 . To be naked is to be destitute of truth, 1073. Truths of faith are called garments because they cover the goods of cha- rity, and charity is the body itself, 1073. Truths are called the clothing of good because they are the recipients or vessels of good, and good \ GAR 241 18 the life of them, 2189, 3652. Garments denote inferior truths, as the clothmg of superior; thus, rational and scientific truths as 'the Testures of spiritual, 2576, 6918. Also sensual truth, which is the lowest, and therefore invests all, 9158, ill. 9212, ill. by the skin, &c., 9215. Garments denote exterior goods, as the clothing of interior thus celestial-spiritual and celestial-natural good ; celestial good itself which IS innocence, is not clothed, 297, 165. When predicated of the Lord, garments signify divine truths, 3735. Garments signify the ultimate forms of spiritual truth, 5006, ill. 5008, 5022. In general garments denote whatever is inferior or exterior, as the covering and clothing of what is superior ; thus, the external or natural man, in which IS the internal ; and more particularly, the truths of faith, 5248 63/7, sh. 9212. Truths are called the clothing of good, because the good exists and circulates in them, as blood in a blood-vessel, or as the animal spirit in the nerves, 5954. The signification of clothing is denved from representatives in the other life, where spirits and angels appear clothed according to their understanding of truths, 165 5248 5954, 9158, 9212, 9814, 10,536. It is the quality of truth' in the natural man that is thus represented ; its quaUty in the rational is manifested by the beauty of their countenances, 5248, 5319. The clothing of angels is more or less splendid, that of spirits without splendour, 5248. They who are in the truths of faith, and thereby in good appear m white garments ; they who are in good, and thereby in the truths of faith, in shining garments, 5954, 9212. The garments ot angels are varied according to change of state, and they who are in good only appear naked, 9212, 9814, 165, 297. The garments of angels come upon them and are formed according to the reception of light from the sun of heaven, thus it is their intellectual state which IS rendered visible and represented by clothing, ill. and sh. 9814, 9952, 10,536. Garments signify truths, because truths form the intellectual part of man, and it is the intellectual part or understanding which clothes the will, in like manner as truth clothes good, 10,536. The intellectual textures are signified by needle Tork, cunning- work, and woven-work ; needlework denotes the scientifics which form the imagi- nation and understanding of the external man ; cunning-work, intel- lectual truths which proceed from thought ; and the work of the weaver, that which proceeds from celestial good, thus from the will, 9688, 9835^ 9915. See Needlework, Linen. Precious clothes for chariots signify exterior goods or the good of rituals, 11 72. Black, shining garments— a girl wearing them, hastening from light to light— signify the Word in the letter, 1872. A hairy garment, truth with the natural man, 3301.

Garments of silk, spiritual truths, 5319. v-arments like hnen or snow, holy truths, 5954. Garments of wrought gold and raiment of needlework, truths with good in them, and scien- tific truths, 5954. Garments of the slain, truth profaned, 4728. The skirts of a garment, external truths, 3540. Change-garments, or new garments, holy truths put on by a change of state, 4545, 5248 ; or truths initiated into good, 5954. To put on garments, the reception of truths induced by good, 9952. To wear garments, the appropriation and conjunction of truths, 3735. To rend the garments, mourning for n \> 242 GAT X > i truth lost or destroyed, or the loss of faith, *^. 4763. To mend an old garment with a piece of a new one, the truth of an old dispensation or church, and the truth of a new church applied together, by which both are destroyed, 9212. Garments of mixed linen and wool not to be worn, denotes that spiritual truth and celestial truth^are so discrete that they cannot both be in one subject, ill, and «A. 94/0. 2. Adam and his wife clothed in coats of skins, denotes instruction i in spiritual and natural good, 292-297. Shem and Japheth covering the nakedness of their father with a garment the excuse «/ ^^^-f a»f perversities by those that are in charity, 1082, 1084, 1086—1088. Silver, and gold, and raiment given to Rebecca, the means by which the truth of the church is prepared for conjunction with good, dl04. Her clothing Jacob with the garments of Esau, the natural nrian imbued with the genuine truths of good, 3537, 3539. Joseph clothed with a coat of many colors, the appearances of truth by which the spiritual becomes manifest to the natural man, 4677, 4741, 4/42, 4/6/--4786. Tamar's removing the garments of her widowhood the simulation ot truth derived from good, 4858. The garment of Joseph left in the hands of Potiphar's wife, the ultimate of spiritual truth relinquished, or its abstraction from the Hfe and spirit by the natural man, ;.000, 5008, 5019, ilL 5028. His garments changed when he was releasea from prison, the investiture of new truths according to the state, oJ4W. His being clothed in fine linen by Pharaoh, the appearance of celestial- spiritual truth in externals when the natural man is submissive, 5^19. His criving changes of raiment to his brethren, truths initiated into good! 5954, 5955. The sons of Israel borrowing gold, and si ver, and Garments from the Egyptians, the scientifics of truth and good Jost by the evil within the church and accruing to the good, 6914, 7909, / J/U. The holy garments commanded to be made for the priests, the repre- sentation of the Lord's kingdom, internal and external, a«d th»s of the proceeding of divine truth in the church, 9814, 9815, 9826, 9942. The garments of the Lord washed in wine, and his clothing in the blood of grapes, the procedure of divine truth from divine good mthe^ natural man, and of divine good from divine love in the rational, 63//, O^/H. His garments divided and his vesture or coat preserved whole, the dis- sipation of external truths by the Jews and the inviolability of internal truth, 9093. His garments shining as the light when he was trans- formed, the manifestation of divine truth proceeding from him, 921^. His disciples placing their garments on the ass and the colt, and the aarments of the people and branches of trees strewed in the way when he rode to Jerusalem, the ministration of truths in their whole complex, as the substratum by which divine tnith proceeds, 9212. His riding on a white horse his garments dyed with blood, the procedure of divine truth imbued with divine good, 9987. Peter girding himself when a boy denotes the faith of the church in its beginning when truths inves,. good ; another girding him in his old age, its faith at the end invested by thefalsesofevil, 9212. , n-^n c GAS. The inhabitants of Mars know how to make fluid fires, trora which they have light at evening-time and night, 7486. GATE [ porta] . There are two gates in man, the infenor gate where infernals are, and the superior gate where angels are, and they open into the rational mind, 2851. The rational mind between the gates is GE H 243 M J. compared to a city, which the evil assault ; and when they come to the gate, it is instantly closed, 2851. If they enter within the gate, thus among goods and truths, man is lost, for the superior gate is then closed against the influx of angels, 285 1. Thy seed shall inherit the gate of thy enemies, signifies that charfty and faith shall succeed in the place of the evil and false, 2851, ill. 3187. Gates denote rational truths, 655. The gate of a city denotes what is doctrinal, thus, what leads to truth, 2943, ill. 4492, 4493. The house of God and the gate of heaven is predicated of the regenerate man who is in the knowledge of celestial and spiritual things, 1453, ill. 3720, 3721. Lot in the gate of Sodom, denotes those who are in the good of charity, and in external worship, 2324. To sit in a gate as the way both of entrance into the city and of departure from it, signifies to be with the evil and yet to be separate from them, 2324. Be thou multiplied into thousands of millions, and may thy seed inherit the gate of thy haters, or enemies, was a customary saying at betrothals ; how it was explained by the wise ones of the ancient church, and how understood afterwards, 3187. A gate denotes the ultimate principle in which order closes, also the natural mind, 3721. It appears as if there was entrance from nature, by the natural mind as by a gate into interiors, but the influx is really the contrary way, 3721. Hamor and Sheckhem going to the gate of their city, denotes good and truth in the doctrine of the ancient church, 4477. Their going out from the gate of the city denotes recession from doctrine, ill. 4492, 4493. The bars by which gates are fastened de- note the potency of truth, ill. and sh. 9496. A gate or entrance east- ward, denotes the good of love by which the Lord flows in, ill. 9668. Gates denote communication and introduction ; the gates of the court of the tabernacle, introduction into the ultimate heaven, 9763. The ways to the hells appear as gates opening into the world of spirits, from experience, 6626, ill. 10,483. The gates of hell and the gates of the enemy signify these apertures of the hells, sh. 10,483. Gates likewise denote the entrance into heaven and the church by truth and good, and the influx of truth and good into man, 10,483. The Levites going from gate to gate through the camp, and slaying the people, signifies the closing of influx, ill. 10,489, 10,490. GATHER OR COLLECT, to [colligere'], when predicated of good is to receive by influx, 8418, 8467, 8472. To gather is predicated of those things which are in the memory of man, that is, of goods and truths before regeneration, 679. To gather denotes the collating of scientifics true and suitable into a one, 6112. To gather denotes to procure, 71 15 ; also, to appropriate after instruction, 9273. To gather the feet is predicated of superior principles collated in inferior, ill. 6463.

GEMS. See Precious Stones. GENEALOGY. It was a most familiar custom with the most an- cient people to express spiritual things by the names of persons, and thus form genealogies to show the birth of one principle from another, 339; examples, 1238, 1246. When representatives were instituted, living persons and their genealogies had the same significations applied to them, 2861, 4642, 6024, 6025. The names of real persons living at a later period were also applied, on account of their signification, to the factitious genealogies assigned to an earlier, 3240. Names and genealogies are constantly given in the Word on account of the order in which heavenly societies are instituted, ill. 7836. GENERA AND Species. Goods and truths, both celestial and spiritual, are distinguished into their genera, and these again into their species with indefinite variety, 775. Uow these innumerable varieties arise, by conjunctions of good and truth, and births proceeding there- from, 4005, 10,032. See Connection, Conjunction. GENERAL [commune]. See Common. GENERATION. See Nativity. Generations are predicated of such things as proceed from faith, 613. Generations of an age, or perpetual generations, signifies those who are regenerated for ever, 1041. The fourth generation signifies the time and state of restitution, 1856. Generations are predicated of faith and charity, 2020, 2584, 6239; see also 1145, 125.5, 3860, 3868, 4070, 4668. Generation and birth denote regeneration, or the new birth by faith and love, 5160, 5598, 9042, 9845. Generation of the just denotes truths derived from good, 6239. Expressions relating to generation, as conception, gesta- tion in the womb, birth, &c., signify similar things in the regeneration, 9042. To go out from the womb or belly is predicated of love, to be separated from the bowels, of truth ; the former expression is used when the mother is spoken of, the latter in reference to the father, 3294 ; compare 1803. The truths and goods appertaining to a rege- nerate man are as generations, and as families, and so forth, 9079. From generation to generation denotes what is eternal, and is predicated of spiritual things, but the word eternal, or to eternity, of celestial things, sh. 9789 ; the former predicated of divine truth,* the latter of divine good, 6888. According to their generations, denotes accordino* to the order in which spiritual generation is effected, and in which i*t proceeds, 9845. Generations denote those who are of the church, 10,212. Throughout your generations, signifies in all things of the church, 10,212, 10,282. Spiritual generations in heaven and the church are like natural generations or families, the arrangement of goods and truths being according to affinities and consanguinities, 9079. See Affinity, Consanguinity, Conjunction, Consociation. GENESIS. The account of the creation in Genesis is not a real history, but a narrative written in the style of the ancient churches signifying spiritual and divine things ; in general, the regeneration of 245 ^ man, ill. 8891. The general subject of the first chapter is the regene- ration of man ; the particular subject, the rise of the most ancient church, 4, 6—13, 10,238. This style is continued from the first chap- ter to Eber, with whom the true history commences; such history being, in like manner, representative, 1403, 1409. See Genealogy. In general, there are four different styles of writing in the Word, and they all contain the internal sense, 64 — 66. See Word. GENII. There are two kinds of temptations, namely, those of evil spirits, who accuse and excite man from what he has thought and done, and those of evil genii ; with what subtlety the latter act upon the very springs of life, 751, 9013. The worst and most deceitful genii are in an infernal tun, and on account of their extreme subtilty are not admitted to man, 947. Evil genii fight against the affections of good, evil spirits against the affections of truth, ill. 1820, 2363. Evil spirits and genii are in the very delight of their life when they can enter into any cupidity, and allure man to evil ; how easily they take those captive who are only in natural good, 5032. Evil spirits act into the intellectual part, but genii into the voluntary part; how differently their presence is manifested in the other life, and where they respectively dwell, 5035; ill. from experience, 5977. Genii are in interior evil, of which there may not be the least trace discernible in the actions, in the discourse, and in the countenance ; for they belong to the province of the cerebellum, and to that part of the spinal marrow which emits the involuntary fibres, 8593. They never assault man openly, nor when he is in the full vigour of resistance, but when he is on the point of succumbing they are suddenly present, and impel him to fall, ilL by the Amalekites, 8593, 8622, 8625. They become genii in the other life who have continually meditated evil to others, and effected their purposes clandestinely, or by the agency of others, while appearing modest and friendly themselves, and even Hke good Christians, 8622. GENITALS [genitalia]. The organs and members of generation in both sexes correspond to the marriage of good and truth, 4462 ; seriatim, 5050 — 5062. In general, the loins and the members adher- ing to them correspond to genuine conjiigial love; consequently, to societies of such as are in conjugial love, 5050, 9960. Those societies are as distinct from others as that province of the human body from the rest of the organs and members, 5053. In general they are of a celes- tial genius, and dwell in a most interior and inscrutable sphere ; for this reason, and on account of the filthy thoughts which are indulged when these organs are named, the particular correspondences are not given, 5055. Those who correspond to the seminal vessels described, represented by a spirit who ardently desired to enter heaven, 5056, 8847. Those who are in the opposite correspondence of the testicles described ; how they ensnare in conjugial love by simulating friendship and innocence, 5060. From the correspondence of these organs, the foreskin, when predicated of the celestial, denotes the obscuration of good and truth ; when predicated of the spiritual, the defilement of good and truth by external loves; hence circumcision, 4462. See Foreskin. As to the nakedness of the genitals and loins, 9960. See Nakedness. GENIUS. From the hereditary nature which they derive from their parents and their parents* parents in a long succession, children /I V I li 246 GIF inherit a particular genius ; in general they are either celestial or spi- ritual, 2300, 2301. With respect to adults, there are two other general distinctions, viz., into those who are principled in charity and those who are not, 1079. Also those who are easily instructed and those who are given to self-intelligence, 736. As to the distinct and peculiar genius of the ante-diluvians, see Flood ; and as to the posterity of Jacob, see Jew. GENTILES. See Nations. GERAR, signifies what is revealed concerning faith, 1209—1211. Gerar (which was in Philistea) signifies faith itself, and the king of Gerar, the truth of faith, 2504, 3365. See Abimelech. To dwell in Gerar is to be or to live in faith, 3384. The men of Gerar denote the spiritual of the first class, namely, those who are in doctrinals of faith and not in perception, 3385. The valley of Gerar denotes sub- servient truths, ill. 3417. See Philistines. GERSHOM [Gerschotn]. See Moses. GESTURE [gestus]. The manifestation of the affections and thoughts by gestures is in consequence of the Lord's will, that the good of one should be communicated to another, and thus all be affected and made happy by mutual love, 1388. All affections have gestures corresponding to them, such gestures being their natural and proper effects, 2153. The gestures and the speech of man are his will and thought formed externally, thus they are their corresponding images, 3393. See Language. Embracing is a gesture which corresponds to affection in general ; kissing to conjunction from affection, 3807 ; UL 4215. See to Kiss. Gestures are derived from the correspondence of the exteriors with the interiors, but they may be simulated by external habit; examples of gestures which correspond, 4215, 5323, 5420, 7596, 8873. GETHER. See Uz. GIANTS [gigantei]. As to the giants mentioned in the book of Genesis and other parts of the Word, see Nephilim. As to giants inhabiting the planet Venus, 7249. GIBEAH, Ramah, and Bethaven, signify those things which are of spiritual truth from a celestial origin, 4592. GIBEONITES, the [Gibeonitce]^ denote those who serve in the church, 1097. The Gibeonites or Hivites were a remnant of the ancient church, with whom truth was not altogether extinct, 4431. See to Draw, Hivites. GIFT [donum\ See to Give. GIFT or Present [munus]. Gifts or offerings put upon the altar signify worship ; presents to kings and priests, initiation, sh, 4262 ; as to the former, see Offering. These presents were commanded to be given as a representation of what is due to the Lord, for kings re- presented the Lord as to divine truths and priests as to divine good, 5619. See to Give. Gifts denote initiation and insinuation, because they were offered to obtain grace or favour, 5619, 5671, 5675. The insinuation of truths in this way «//., 4364. A gift in the opposite sense, or a bribe, denotes all that closes the understanding or per- verts truth, thus everything of a worldly nature loved by man, 9265. The gifts or offices of angels described, 5992, 6206, 6213, 1977,454. G IR 247 GIHON good and tru Gichon^ denotes the knowledges of all things relating to ;h, or to love and faith, 1 16. See Eden, Ethiopia. GILEAD. Mount Gilead denotes the good into which man is first initiated when he becomes regenerate, or in which the first state of conjunction occurs, which is the good of sensual things, or the good of pleasure, 4117, 4124, 4255. Gilead was within the land of Canaan, on this side Jordan, and was one of its boundaries, sh. 4117. Gilead denotes exterior good, 4747, 9340, by which man is initiated or intro- duced into internal good, 4117, 4124, 4747. The balm of Gilead de- notes interior natural truth concluded from or divined in externals, ill, 4748. GINS [tendicula]. See Snare. GIRDLE [cingulum]. To be girded is to be in order, prepared to receive and to act, 7863. The loins girded denotes the interiors held in order, 7863 ; or good invested with truth, 9212. The girdle of the loins denotes an external or common bond, containing all things of love and of faith in connection, briefly, 9341, 9698. A belt or girdle de- notes the common bond which collects together and firmly holds all the interiors in connection, and directs them to one end, ill. and sh. 9828, 9944. Such bonds are goods and truths in ultimates ; celestial goods being denoted by a girdle of the loins, and spiritual goods and truths by girdles of the thighs and breast, 9828. A girdle of the loins denotes the good of the church, which concludes and holds together the truths therein, sh. 9828. The girdle of the Ephod denotes the external coUigament or knitting up of the interiors, 9837, 9895. The belt of the inner garment or waistcoat denotes the middle bond, which collects and contains spiritual things, and sei)arates them from things external, 9944; ill. 10,005. The leathern girdles of John the Baptist and Elias represent the common bond of good, and their coats of hair the common bond of truth, in the external sense of the Word, 5247, 7643, 9828 ; especially 9372. Peter's girding himself when young denotes the state of the church when faith and charity were one ; his being girded by another in his old age, the state of the church at its decline, when the falses of evil prevail, 9212. GIRGASHITES [Girgaschi], and Jebusites, signify falses derived from evil, 1867. See Amorite, Jebusite. GIRL [puella], denotes affection in which is innocence, 3067, 3080, 3110 ; or the affection of truth in which is good, 3080, 3179. Her virginity its purity from all that is false, 3081. Affections serving or ministering are also signified by girls, 3189. They signify affection in which is innocence before consent, and the affection of truth after consent to betrothal, 3179. Good, which is of the celestial church, is denoted by virgin ; and the truth of good, which is of the spiritual church, by girl, but otherwise expressed in the original than in the former cases, sh. 6742. The girls attendant on the daughter of Pha- raoh denote the ministries of that false religion, 6731. See Egypt (6). Those who acknowledge and love the interiors of the Word repre- sented by a beautiful girl in the first flower of her age, 1774. Repre- sentation of the Word by a beautiful girl in shining black raiment, 1872. Girls who have become harlots, and passed into the other life at an early age, are instructed and severely chastised in order to their amendment, 1113. See Virgin^ Boy. Y / ' ? ; /, I A» / \ 248 GLO r \ GIVE, to \dare\ is predicated of what is derived from the pro- priura ; the Father giving to the Son, therefore, denotes what the Lord derived from his own proprium, which was the divine itself, 3/0.5, 3740; compare 1007, especially 2026, 4738. To give denotes influx from the divine, ill. 8899. By gifts or offerings to Jehovah is signified the attributing all to him which is really his already, it being from him, 10,093; iV/. 10,227. His giving wisdom to man is predicated of those who attribute all wisdom and all good to him, for thus good and truth can flow in, 10,227, 10,336. His covenant given between him and man denotes his presence in charity, and conjunction thereby, 1039. All love and charity, thus the celestial proprium, is the Lord's gift, 1594. His gifts to man denotes what is conceded for the sake of use, 997. Good and truth given to man by the Lord without any ability of man's proprium was represented by the money returned with the corn to the sons of Jacob, 5532, 5649, 5664. The same in the case of interior truth signified by the cup of Joseph, and that these gifts to man are at first regarded by him as not given, 5747 ; compare 4364. To give into the hands of any one denotes application to use, or instruction tending thereto, thus furthering the initiation of truth into conjunction with good, 4009, 4266, 4978, 5045, 7726, 9342, col- lated. See Gift [tnunus]^ Dowry. GLADNESS [latitia]. See Joy. GLAND [fflandula]. There are societies of spirits who are dissi- milar in speech, but similar in thought ; they correspond to the isthmus between the cerebrum and the cerebellum by which the fibres pass out, and diffuse themselves to the various functions of the body ; also to the glandular or cortical substances of the brain ; and to the ganglia in the course of the nerves, 4051, 4052, 5189. Spirits of an infantile genius, whose perception is interior, thus not given out in meditations and thoughts, correspond to the thymus gland, 517. The mucus and salival glands, &c., correspond to tenacities of opinion and scruples of conscience in things of no moment ; spirits of this character have no extension of thought, and pay no attention to reasons, 5386. There are two kinds of spirits who correspond to the cutaneous glands ; how they judge of the truth by its fluency, &c., 5558. GLASS. See Crystal. GLORIFICATION. The glorification of the Lord was the union of his external and internal man, 1603, 2826; or of the human with the divine, sh. 10,053. So far as he was in the infirm human taken from the mother, he was in a state of humiliation ; and so far as he put off this human he was in a state of glorification, 1999. The Lord's glori- fication was not effected at once, but successively, 2033, 2523. The human was in continual progress towards union with the divine, even until it was absolutely united, 2523. This union or glorification was effected by divine love, 2826. As to the manner of its procedure, 3141, 10,057. The Lord completely changed his human state into a divine state, and this glorification is imaged in the regeneration when the old man is made new, 3296, 6864. How the liberation of the spi- ritual church from damnation is signified by being glorified, and what is denoted by the immersion of Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea, 8137, 8138. The Lord's glorification was effected by continual temp- tations, or conflicts with hell, 9715, 10,828. To glorify is to make GO 249 ij divine, 10,828. The internal sense of the Word everywhere treats of the Lord's glorification, which is represented to the apprehension of the angels, together with, its innumerable consequences, under the most beautiful forms, 2249, 2523. See Lord. GLORY [gloria]. Somewhat worldly is understood by glory in the letter, but in the internal sense it denotes celestial love and humi- lity, 1419. Even the light and glory of heaven confers no happiness apart from use, 455. Hence glory does not consist in dominion, 9039, where the Lord's words are explained. Power is predicated of good, glory of truth, 4060. Glory denotes the internal sense of the Word, cloud the literal sense ; Preface before 2135 ; ill. and sh. 5922. Human glory is an end for the sake of self, but divine glory an end for the sake of others ; hence the humiliation and submission of the human race before the Lord is required for their own sakes, ill. 4347, 5957, 7550, 8263; further ill. 10,646. Glory denotes the intelligence and wisdom which are in divine truth, and in the splendour of its light, 4809. Glory is predicated of the divine human of the Lord as to divine truth, thus of the divine truth which is from himself, sh. 5922. It denotes the spiritual heaven, 5922. It is attributed to royalty, be- cause by it is represented the divine truth, 5922. By glory in the representative sense is meant the good of love towards the neighbour, or charity, 5922. The glory of those who are in spiritual good is truth, 6355. The magnificence or glory of heaven is nothing else but divine truth, consequently faith ; the glory of man is faith in the Lord, 8267. How the Lord is glorified, ill. and sh. 826 1 . Glory is the pre- sence and coming of the Lord, and is the Lord as to divine truth, 8427. The glory of Jehovah is the divine truth proceeding from the Lord, such as it is in heaven, thus the interiors of the Word, sh. 9429; also the interiors of the church and of worship ; and all this because it is of light in heaven, which is divine truth, 10,574. The appearance of the glory of the Lord like a fire at the top of the mountain signifies the divine truth in heaven resplendent from the good of love, ill. 9434. A general glorification of the Lord heard in heaven, and seen by radi- ation, described ; it was an outflow of the inmost joy of the angels, 2133. GO, to \ire]f denotes separation according to the subject treated of, &c., 3030, 3042, 3176, 4144. See to Depart. To go signifies progression in those things which are of good, or life, in like manner as to journey, to travel, to progress, 3335. It denotes the order and institutes of hfe, 3685. It denotes life, or to live, 3690; ill. 4882, 5493, 5522, 5605, 5962, 7061, 8417, 8420, 8707; and when predi- cated of Jehovah, to give life, to be present, and to lead, 10,567, 10,569, 10,627. Going one's way denotes what is successive, 4234; compare 3407, 3973, 3976. To go and see denotes conjunction, 5975. To go and do denotes obedience, 7944. Moses going from Midian to return to his brethren in Egypt, signifies elevation to a more spiritual life in the natural degree, 7016. To go day and night signifies life both in a state of illustration and a state of obscurity, 8109. To go after or follow is to be led of the divine auspices, 3191. When predi- cated of the angels attending the camp of the Israelites it denotes divine guardianship, lest the false of evil should flow into the will, 8194. Jehovah's going before them denotes the Lord's continual presence. 250 GO GOL 251 \ " » 1 \ 8105; and his teaching them the precepts of faith and life, 9315: see ahove, 10,567. See also to Journey, to Walk. To go down involves declension to evil; to go up, elevation to good, 4815. See to Ascend, to Descend. GOBLETS OR Basons [crateres^, denote the scientifics of the memory, as the receptacles of truth, ill. 9394. See Bason, Vessel. GOATS: — 1. He-goats [hirciy capri^, denote those who are in the truth of faith, and hence in some charity ; in the opposite sense, those who are in the faith of no charity, or in the doctrine of faith and not in the life, 4169 at the end, 4769. He-goats denote the truths of good ; she-goats, the goods of truth, 4005. He-goat of the she-goats denotes natural truths, or truths of the external man, from which come the delights of life ; in the opposite sense, external truths chosen in accordance with the delights of the natural man, thus derived from them, 4769. Hence he-goats denote those who are in faith separate ; and, generally, who are in externals, sh. 4769. They who are signified by the goats in the words of the Lord concerning the last judgment actually appear separated to the left ; the passage explained, 4809 ; briefly, 9263. He-goat of the she-goats denotes the truth of faith, 9937. The he-goat of the she-goats, seen in vision by Daniel, denotes the doctrine of faith separated from the good of charity ; its horn grow- ing towards the south, the power of the false against truth ; its growing towards the east, against good ; towards the pleasant land, against the church ; to the host of heaven, against all heavenly good and truth ; its casting some down and trampling upon them, the destruction of the knowledges of good and truth, 9642, and more briefly, where the sig- nification of rams is shown, 2830. 2. She-goats and Kids [capra, hoedi']. A she-calf denotes exte- rior good ; a she-goat interior good ; a ram, the truth of good, ill. 1821 — 1824. He-lambs and she-lambs denote the innocence of the internal or rational man, consequently his truths and goods ; he and she-kids, the innocence of the external or natural man, and, in like manner, his truth and good, 3519, 7840. Kids of the she-goats denote the truths of good, 3519. She-goats denote the goods of truth, or the charity of faith; he-goats, the truths of good, 3995, 4005, 4006. Sheep denote good ; she-goats, the good of truth, 4169. In the supreme sense, she-goats and sheep signify divine goods ; he- goats and rams, divine truths, 4263. She-goats signify the natural delights of good, 4769. A lamb or she-goat denotes innocence, the former of the internal man, the latter of the external, 7832. A lamb denotes the good of innocence ; a she-goat or kid, the good of truth in which is innocence, 7840. The wool of she-goats denotes good derived from the good of mutual love, ill. 9470 ; or external innocence, such as the innocence of the Gentiles, 3519. On account of their signifying innocence, a lamb, a kid, or a she-goat were commanded to be offered for sins committed in ignorance ; and because genuine conjugial love is innocence, it was customary to present a kid on entering into a wife, 3519. Hence a kid of the she-goats denotes a conjugial pledge or token of conjunction, ill. by the case of Thamar, 4871. GOD, Gods. See Name. GO DOWN, to [descender e]. See to Descend. GO FORTH, or Go Out, to [exire]. To enter in and go out II r denotes the whole state of the life, and of the thing treated of, from beginning to end, ill. and sh. 9927, 10,240. See Entrance, to Go. To go out, predicated of the Israelites in Egypt, is to be liberated, 1851. To arise and go forth, predicated of the state of evil, is to recede from it, 2401. The Philistines are said to have gone out from the family of Mitzraim, not to have been begotten, because they signify the knowledges of faith acquired by another way than by reasonings from scientifics, 1 198. To go out from the bowels is predicated of the regenerate, and the state of love, 1803; compare 3294. To go out from the thighs is predicated of what originates from the good of conju- gial love, 3021. He or them which goes out must be of the essence of that from which it goes ; hence Jesus is called the Sent, and the Holy Spirit was promised to be sent, 2397; ilL 5337. The Son going out from the Father denotes the assumption of the human by the divine, and his returning to the Father, the human and the divine made one essence, 3736. To go out or to proceed is to become present before another in a form accommodated to him, 5337, 7124. In this sense it is predicated of the Lord, who was the Divine formed as man, and thus accommodated to perception, ill. 5337, 9303. In like manner, truth goes out or proceeds from good, the understanding from the will, speech from thought, action from will, and in general, the external man from the internal, 5337. To go forth from any place, as from a house or a city, denotes to recede, to be separated and removed, 4493, 5696, 6100, 7404, 7463. Entering the gates of a city denotes accession to doctrine, and a receding from externals ; going out from a city, acces- sion to externals, and a receding from doctrine, 4492 ; ill. 4493. Hamor and Sheckhem going out from their city denotes the recession of the last posterity of the most ancient church from their doctrines, ill. 4492, 4493. Joseph's going out from his brethren denotes the apparent withdrawal of the Lord from those who are regenerating, 5696. To go forth denotes influx, 5333. To go forth and meet another denotes preparation to receive, 7000. The exactors and the moderators going forth denotes the emission of those who proximately infest and who proximately receive the infestation, 7124. See Moderators. Moses and Aaron going out from before Pharaoh denotes the separation of the divine law, external and internal, from those who are in falses, 7404 ; thus the removal of divine truth from them, 7463. Pharaoh'^s going forth to the water denotes thought from evils to falses, thus its proce- dure with thp evil, 7307, 7437. Moses' going to meet him, divine influx discovering the state of such, 7307, 7308. See to Walk. GOG [Goffus]. See Magog. GOLD [aurum]. In general, gold denotes the good of love; silver, truth, 113, 425, 1551, 1552, 2954, 4453, 5658, 6112, 6914, 6917, 8932, 9490, 9510, 9644, 9832, 9874, 9881, 10,402. Gold denotes the good of wisdom, or the good of love, 113. Gold denotes inmost celestial good, 425, 643. Gold denotes wisdom ; silver, intelligence, 113. Gold and silver denote good and truth proceeding from the divine, thus from the Word, 9391. See Silver. Gold, and frankincense, and myrrh signify the good of love, the good of faith, and the truth derived therefrom in externals; thus celestial, spiritual, and natural good, 113, 1171, 9293, 10,177, 10,199, 10,252. Aromatics, and pre- cious stones, and gold, the merchandise of Sheba, denote charity, and I 252 GOL ffdth, and love, or the knowledges thereof, 1171. Precious stones de- note interior truths, gold their good, and aromas, all that is grateful proceeding from them, 10,099; more fully «A. 10,227. See Precious Stones, Aromatics. Gold denotes the good of innocence, and that good in the other life appears golden, from influx, shown hy experi- ence, 5658 ; compare 4453. The ancient times, when innocence and integrity prevailed, are denoted by the golden age; the succeeding times, when men were guided by truth, the silver age, &c., 5658. These ages or states of the church were also represented by the statue seen in vision by Nebuchadnezzar, briefly ex, 3021. Gods of silver and gods of gold denote falses and evils which appear in the external form like goods and truths, «A. 8932. See Idolatry. Gold, and silver, and brass, named in series, denote internal good and truth, and external good, 9464; ill, 10,332. A chain of gold denotes conjunction by good, 5320. Precious stones set in gold denote truths founded in good, 9847, 9851; and proceeding from good, 9874. To be covered with gold denotes to be wholly founded upon good, 9490.

The river of Eden encompassing the land of Havilah, where there is gold and precious stones, denotes the state of the celestial man as to love and intelligence, 1 10 — 115. Abram's being rich in silver and gold, denotes the state of the Lord in boyhood as to celestial good and truth, 1549 — 1552. The Israelites borrowing vessels of silver and vessels of gold and raiment of the Egyptians, denotes scientific truths and goods taken away from the evil, and acquired by those who are of the spi- ritual church, ill, 6913, and sequel. The people ofl^ering gold, and silver, and brass, and blue, and purple, &c., for the works of the taber- nacle, denotes interior things collated and disposed in externals, where they are represented, 9458, and sequel. The gold of the ark, and the border of gold round about it, denote good in the inmost, and the common sphere of good which proceeds from the Lord, and contains all, 9484, 9492. The mercy-seat and the cherubim of gold denote the hearing and reception of worship, and approach to the Lord, from the good of love, 9506, 9509, 9510. The table of show-bread covered with gold, and the border of gold round about it, denotes the reception of all that conduces to the spiritual life in good, and the sphere of good affording protection from evil, 9527, 9532, 9533. The candlestick, its branches, &c., all of gold, denotes all mental illumination, intelligence, or the truth of faith, proceeding from good, 9548, 9549, 9550.

The blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen of the Ephod, embroidered all over with golden thread, denotes the universal prevalence of love, and every GOO 253 manifestation of charity and faith imbued therewith, 9332 — 9334, 9339. The sockets of the onyx stones made of gold, and the chains of gold, denote the subsistence and coherence of all things in the memory grounded in good, 9840, 9847, 9851. All the stones of the breastplate set in gold, its rings and chains of gold, denote all the goods and truths of the internal man proceeding from divine good, and surrounded with the sphere of good, and their indissoluble conjunction thereby, 9874, 9880—9889, 9892. The bells of gold upon the border of the robe of Aaron denote all that is heard and perceived of the church, thus all doctrine and worship to be from good, 9921, 9923. The plate of gold engraved with " Holiness to Jehovah" upon Aaron's fore- head, denotes illustration and wisdom proceeding from the divine good of the Lord, 9930. The altar of incense covered with gold denotes the elevation, or hearing and reception, of all worship rising from love and charity, 10,177. Bezaleel, of the tribe of Judah, called and inspired to do these works for the tabernacle, to work in gold, &c., denotes those who are in the good of love receiving divine influx, and their exceeding wisdom, 10,329 — 10,331. The works of the tabernacle, and the heavenly state it represented, shown in a summary, 2575. In the opposite sense, the ear-rings of gold given to Aaron to make the golden calf denotes the delight of external loves, which are the loves of self and the world, rendering worship idolatrous ; thus the good of the external man instead of the good of love, or divine good, represented, 9391, 10,402, 10,406, 10,407.

GOMORRAH [Amora], Sodom denotes the evil of the love of self; Gomorrah, the false thence derived, sh. 2220. See Sodom. GOOD [5owMm]. — 1. General Principles, That which man knows and understands he calls truth, that which he wills, good, 4301. The varieties of good pertaining to man, both within the church and out of it, are as various as men themselves, and their varieties exist from truths, genuine or otherwise, 3986. There are many kinds and species of good, for example, celestial and spiritual good, interior and exterior good, the good of love, the good of innocence, and the good of faith ; and all good is varied and qualified by truth, 10,334. By good in its proper sense is not meant civil and moral good, which is known out of the church as well as in it, but spiritual good or charity, which is to will and to do good to others without any aid but the delight of the afl^ection of good, 4538, 5354. All good and truth thus understood are from the Lord, and he who cannot perceive that it is so cannot be in heaven ; on the other hand, so far as any one receives good from the Lord, and believes it to be from him, he is in his kingdom, 1614, 2904. In good from the Lord there is heaven and the Lord himself; but good from the proprium has inmostly in itself hell, ill. 8480, 9473. All the good peculiar to man as distinguished from the brute animals, is the good flowing in from the Lord as the afl^ection of good, thus, the love of God and the neighbour, 3715, 3768. All good is of love. t ^1 254 GOO GOO 255 and love is a celestial and spiritual fire from which the affection of good is derived as heat, 3300, 3865, 4906. Good in man appears to be one and simple, but it is so manifold and various that even its common varieties could never be explored, 4067. The varieties of good are comprised in two universal kinds, namely, the good of faith, which is spiritual, and the good of love, which is celestial ; thus, good deriving its origin from the will, and good deriving its origin from the understanding, 4581, 6065. From these two faculties of life, the will receptive of good and the understanding of truth, is derived the plural form of the expression for life in the Hebrew language ; the two lives also form one when the understanding is of the will, or, what is the same, when truth is of good, 3623. All good is conjunction, the good of love conjoins man to the Lord, and the good of charity to the neighbour, 4997. It may be known what good is if there be any study to know what love to God is, and love towards the neighbour, but not otherwise, 4997, 5354, 7178. No truth can be known ex- cept from good, thus, it cannot be known what heaven is, for good makes heaven, 7178, 7181, 7197. It is good alone from which, and by which, all things exist, for they all refer to good and truth, and truth is from good, 9667, ill 9832 and citations. There is no good that is really such without interior good be in it, and thus all proceed according to genuine order, and there be influx from the inmost to the external, ill, 9912, 9812, ill 10,021 and citations. All good is the divine with man because it is from the divine, 10,618 : see below (23). 2. Good Works, Man of himself can neither do anything that is good, nor think anything that is true, but in the first state of rege- neration it appears as if he did good and thought the truth of himself, 874—876, 2946, 2960, 2974, 3310. Evil cannot even be separated from man, he can only be witheld from evil, and held in good, 789, 929, 1581, 2016, 5398, 5854. Every one ought to do good as it were from the proprium, only acknowledging, when he reflects upon it, that it is not his own good, 1712. He is in the good of charity whether in the church or one of the church who thinks nothing but good of others, and wills nothing but good to them, even though they be enemies, and without any idea of reward, 2380. He who intends evil to his neighbour and thinks evil of him, is among infernals ; he who intends good, and never thinks anything except good, and also does good whenever practicable, is among angels, 1680. He who suffers himself to be led by the Lord never intends and thinks anything but good, 3573. Good is done from the perception of good by the celestial; but from truth, thus from knowledge and understanding, by the spiritual, 4169. Good works are called the fruit of faith, but they are inanimate unless they proceed from charity ; in charity, again, there ought to be love to the Lord ; and in this love the Lord himself is present, 1873. Man ought to compel himself to do good and speak truth, 1937, 1947. He ought to compel himself because what is first done from the understanding is at length willed and made habitual ; thus, the truth passes from the memory and becomes the good of truth in the will by good works, 4337, 4346, 4390, ill, 4538, compare 5351. No one can merit heaven by any good that he does, for so far as his good is not from the Lord it is nothing but evil, 2370. Every one ought to do good and think truth from himself, that what is good and true may become as his proprium, and he may have celestial freedom, 2882, 2883, 289 1 . The interior conscience is formed in spiritual good and truth, but there are two other planes in which the Lord operates, the exterior conscience of what is just and equitable, and the sense of honesty and decorum, which are as goods succeeding each other in order, 2915, 4167. They who do not live according to the precepts of the Word, can have no perception of good and truth ; and even those who are regenerating imagine truth to be good, ill, 3603, 3612, 3793. They who become regenerate do not learn truths as naked knowledges, but they acquire them as a life by doing them, 3701. With the re- generate good is regarded in the first place, and person in the second ; hence, they delight in doing good to others according to the good they perceive in them, 3701, ill, 3768. It is essential that faith be acknow- ledged by the good of life, that is by works of charity, 3923. The good of faith cannot be given without works, for works are its produc- tions, and correspond to it, 3934. Unless they correspond to the good of faith they are neither works of charity nor works of faith, for they do not come from the internal, 3934. The good of faith is compara- tively like the will and the thought of man, and works as the face which ought to be the representative image of what is willed and thought, 3934. The good of faith which is of the internal man, and good works which are of the external, constitute the third common medium that is to be acknowledged in faith and act, before man can enter into the Lord's kingdom, 3935. To do good from the will is to do it from the perception of good, which is celestial ; to do good from the understanding is to do it from knowledge and instruction, which may sometimes be fallacious, but the good end is accepted, 4169. To do good believing it to be self-derived is to be willing to merit salva- tion, whereby the good continually flowing in from the Lord is defiled, 4171. See Merit. Good works may exist without any good of charity in them, but there is no good of works without charity, ill, 4189. The works of the external man are of no account unless they proceed from the internal, briefly, 4368. They who are in truth or faith only are more apt than others to ascribe merit to all that appears as good in the external form, 4638. They that cherish internal love and reverence towards the Lord testify it by exercises of charity to- wards those that are in the good of charity and life, for the Lord him- self is in their good, sh, 5066, 5067. Goods in exercise or act are the recreations of the angels, and are the means by which their spiritual Hfe is nourished and made joyful, ill, 5147. Unless good from the Lord flow out into life it cannot flow in, for it is a universal law that influx accommodates itself to efflux, ill. 5828, ill. 6299. Goods in act performed according to the precepts of faith received in the under- standing, are spiritual good, 6065. Goods are works of charity or uses performed towards one's neighbour, or country, or the Lord's kingdom, briefly ill, and sh. 6073. When goods are thus applied they are said to be from the Lord with man, when bent to self and the world they are said to be from man, though the Lord is still the source from which they flow in, 7564. Works are the complex of all charity and faith with man, and are called spiritual goods, for goods become such by their exercise, that is, by use, 6073. They who do good for the sake of reward can never know what heavenly fehcity there is in I • lit 256 GOO GOO 257 doing good for its own sake ; yet the Lord himself is its reward in this case, for he is present with the good that proceeds from him, ill, 6391, 6392, 9984. Neither they who do good from natural genius alone, nor they who do so for the sake of meriting heaven can come into association with the angels, ill. 8002, see 5032, 7761 : see below (3). Good works or exercises of charity consist in acting conscientiously and prudently in all the relations of life, for the sake of good as an end, 8120 — 8122. Man's state as to good completely depends on the use of his life, according as he regards the service of others or himself only, ill. 9296, 9297. Without good in the life, interior goods and truths lose their coherence and are dissipated, for they can only be held together by one end prevailing in all things, ill, 9828, 9832. They who put merit in works, love themselves, and they who love themselves despise others in the same proportion ; hence all good is to be done from the Lord, 9975, 9976, 9981. All the good that is done is quahfied by the end, if it is not done for the sake of good, thus from love to the Lord, it has self in it and is evil, 10,336. To do good and truth for the sake of good and truth is to love the Lord above all things, and the neighbour as oneself, 10,336. See Proprium, Works. The necessity of man*s compelling himself to do good according to the dictate of the internal man represented by the vision of the angel and his words to Hagar, 1937, 1947. The ascent from the lowest goods and truths done in the life to heavenly wisdom, and the descent afterwards through every degree of good, represented by the angels ascending and descending in the vision of Jacob, 3701, compare 5147. The commencement of regeneration by works of charity, or the good of life, represented by the birth of Dan, 3923; and, more ultimately, by the birth of Gad, 3934. The production of good and the good of truth into life represented by the ewes and the she-goats not casting their young, 4169. Good that has once acquired life injured by evils and reasonings from externals, represented by a flock ravaged and torn by wild beasts, 4171 ; compare 5828. Uses or works of charity re- plenished from within with celestial good represented by the food in the uppermost of the three baskets carried by Pharaoh's baker, 5147, 5148. The goods of charity represented by the works or employ- ments of life, 6073, 6074. The infelicity of works done with a view to reward represented by Issachar under the character of an ass crouching with his burthen, 6387 — 6394. They who do good from natural genius alone represented by the stranger inhabiting with the Israelites, and they who do good for gain by the hired servant, 8002. The fruition and use of all good in the life when man suffers himself to be withheld from doing, willing, and thinking evil, represented by the harvest of first fruits, or first works, 9294, and sequel. Good done in all things from the love of good represented by the gold every- where woven in the Ephod, 9832. Good not communicable with those who do good from merit, represented in the parable of the wise and foolish virgins, 4638. The works of charity in their true order, or the essence and exercise of charity, represented by the Lord's words concerning the hungry and thirsty, and naked, &c., 4955, 5066, fully ill. 5008. Good done from truth, and evil done from falses, repre- sented by trees and their fruits, 9258. 3. Natural Good. All the good in man before he becomes rege- nerate is only an appearance of good, because it is not vivified by the Lord, 671. All external or natural goods are only so far good as celestial and spiritual goods are in them, 1420. Natural good is accepted so far as there is innocence in it, thus in infancy and child- hood, and so long as man is not better instructed, but it is not the good of charity, 1667. The natural man has his good and his truth, for the marriage of good and truth is universal ; his good is the de- light that is perceived from charity, from which delight the pleasure of the body exists ; and his truth is the scientific favouring such good, 2184. The good of the natural man is what the phrase 'celestial natural' denotes, 2184. Natural good devastated of all truth, and defiled with falses, is impure and profane, 2463, 2464, 2468. The truths of the natural man are scientifics, that is to say, whatsoever is in the external memory ; his goods are the delights pertaining to the affections of those truths, 3114. After the illustration of the natural man by influx from the spiritual, his good consists in the delight and pleasure of serving his neighbour, still more in promoting the public weal, and further still in serving the Lord and his kingdom; his truths also consist of such doctrines and scientifics as further these uses, and tend to wisdom, 3167. Natural good is the delight of natural affec- tion, which forms itself and exists by scientifics ; and the natural man is not human unless the one is perfected by the other, 3293. The life of the natural man is from good, which is of two kinds, in- terior and exterior ; interiorly it communicates with the rational mind, exteriorly with the life of the bodily senses, 3293. Natural good, such as the animals also have is connate with man, but not truth, on account of hereditary evil ; such connate good is only good in appear- ance, and is easily perverted, but good acquired or given by the Lord is properly so called, 3304, 3408. When man is regenerating, the good and truth of the natural man are conceived together from the influx of rational good as a father, and rational truth as a mother; and until this influx can take place the marriage is a barren one in respect to truth, 3286, 3299. The influx of the good of the rational man into the good of the natural is both immediate and mediate ; in the latter case, by rational truth, 3314, ill. 3563, ill, 3570, ill. 3573, briefly, 3616. Its influx into the truth of the natural man is by the medium of his good, or by the mediation of rational truth, 3314. The natural good connate with man is of four kinds, namely, from the love of good, from the love of truth, from the love of evil, and from the love of the false ; inclinations to these are received by chil- dren hereditarily from their parents, ill. 3469. Natural good is not the good of faith or charity, until it is reformed of the Lord by re- generation, 3470. To this end, truths not genuine are first adjoined to it, and become the means of introducing genuine truths ; on this account, states of vastation and temptation have to be endured until the concupiscences languish and the good of charity can flow in, 3470, 3471, ill' 3570. The truths thus received are as fibres which are led and applied into form by interior good, 3470, ill. 3570. The good thus formed in the natural or external man is as a texture woven and formed by the internal man from the Lord, who is the Former and Creator, 3470, 3494, 3513. It is by the delights of the natural man B 258 GOO that knowledges of good and truth are first insinuated, hence called the truth of good, 3502, ill 3518, 3519, tV/. 3570, compare 35/5. The good of the natural man is derived from the order in which good and truth flow in from the rational, and from the order of its scientifics, knowledges, and doctrinals among themselves, 3508, ill, 3ol3. The good thus flowing in from the Lord is called the good of the natural to distinguish it from the natural or domestic good which man derives from his parents, 3518, 4231, 7920. There can he no good with the natural man but what flows in by means of the rational, 2//.^ 3563, 3575; thus from the existence of the rational within it, 3o76. The formation of good in the natural man, by the good of the rational as a soul, is like the formation of the child in the womb, ill, 3.)70. While it is in that state that good is exterior, and truth in- terior, much IS admitted by the natural man that is not good, but still useful as means, 3570. The means of forming the good and truth of the natural man by the influx of the rational are innumerable, 3573. feuch formations proceed by successive derivations of truth from good, and good from truth, ilL 3579. The good of the natural man is a manifestation and procedure from the rational, 3587. The goods and truths of the natural man are so innumerable, that it is hardly possible for their most common genera to be known, and yet when natural good IS named it appears as if it were one and simple, 3660. The whole natural mmd and all it contains is nothing but good and truth, but some of Its goods and truths are discordant with rational goods, and hence the rational cannot be in them, 3660. Exterior good and truth are as ground m which interior good produces itself Hke a seed, 3671. Ihe natural man may know and perceive natural, moral, and civil good, but not spiritual without revelation, ill. 3768. The quality of natural good, like all other, can only be known from truths, 3804.* The good ot the natural man is called common good, because the innumerable tilings which flow m from the internal appear there as one, 3829. Ihe goods of the external man, which are the delights of life while man lives m the worid, are only so far good as they have spiritual cood in them, tlL 3951. The truths of the external man before regenera- tion are scientifics and doctrinals, howsoever acquired, and his good IS the pleasure and delight he perceives in them ; but the heavenly marriage cannot be formed by this good and truth unless spiritual good flow m, ill, 39.)2. The arrangement of good and truth in the natural man is derived from the spiritual, and thereby from the Lord, whose influx is into the good of the internal man, and by truth into the ex- ternal, 401o. Natural goods and truths are appropriated by the senses, and contained in the exterior memory, truths by sight and heanng especially and goods by the other three senses; the commu- nication between these and things corporeal below them and rational above them, t//. 4038, compare 10,236 and citations. The good of the sensual things of the body, or pleasure, is the good into which they who become regenerate are first of all initiated, 4117. The good first produced when the church is created anew is the good of the natural man, that is, spiritual good in its external form with its afl^ec- tion nnd Its truths, ill 4231. They who are only in natural good TTq.w''T/P'"^"*^^'"^^' ^^^^"^^ of appearances and fallacies, tlL 4303. Interior goods and truths predicated of the natural man GOO 259 are those which correspond to the goods and truths of the rational ; in general they are uses and the means of application, 4973. Scien- tific truths appropriated to the good of the natural man, are as water to bread or drink to meat in nourishment, without which the solid food could not be resolved into parts and distributed to the uses of the body, ill. 4976. Natural good as derived from parents is only good in external form, and may be compared with that of the milder animals; but natural good derived from the doctrine of faith and charity is proper to man, for thus he acts from reason, and knows how to dispense good according to use, 4988, ill. 4992. They that are in natural good, not spiritual, are easily persuaded that evil is good, and that the false is truth, for there is no plane in which heaven can operate ; hence they suffer much from the infestation of evil spirits in the other life, ill. 5032, 5033, 7197, 7761, 8002, from experience, 6208. External good is elevated to heaven by internal good, and if it be not elevated, thus, if there be not conjunction between them, they perish, 5841, compare 5828. The elevation of the natural man is effected by his withdrawal from sensuals and scientifics into a state of interior thought and affection, ill. 6183. Natural good constitutes the external of the church, spiritual good the internal, ill. 5965. When the church is formed in man the midst of the natural mind is occupied by the best good, and other goods are disposed round about, nearer or more remote, according to their degree of goodness, 6028. When this order prevails, all the interiors close together in ultimates, according to the procedure of influx ; thus, there is spiritual good and apparently life itself in the natural man, 6451. Before this order prevails good is mixed with evils and falscs in the natural man, but it is guarded by the operation of divine truth given in the midst, 6724 ; compare, as to the mixed state of goods and evils, 3993, 3995, 4005. The exterior goods and truths of the natural man look outwards and downwards, thus, to self and the world, and are thereby adjoined to evils and falses ; but his interior goods and truths look inwards and above himself, and thus have regard to the Lord and his kingdom, ill. 7601, 7604, 7607. Natural good is both connate with man and produced by the accidents of misfortune, sickness, imbecility, and the like, hence it is not saving ; spiritual good, which saves, derives its quality from the copiousness and connection of truths, 7761, 8002. Without the truths of faith the natural man is like a reed shaken by the wind, for there is no stamina by which the angels can hold him to good and truth, 7 1 97, 8002. It is not the life of natural good but the life of Christian good that makes heaven, 7197, 8772. The good of plea- sure, or natural delight separate from spiritual, makes the life of hell, 8410, compare 41 17. Natural good, not made spiritual, is only de- light, ill. 8977, 8981. The good of charity in the natural man is perceived as delight, the good of the spiritual man as duty ; but the latter is also sensibly perceived as delight in the other life, 9103. The good of the natural man, whose state is described by wounds and bruises, cannot be restored except from a full state of spiritual good ; for it is the internal that regenerates the external, ill. 9103. Natural good, when in order, contains spiritual good, and in mostly celestial good, for one good exists and subsists by another, 9812, ill. 9912. s 2 260 GOO Ministering goods and truths are the knowledges and scientifics of the external man, 10,272, 10,340. See Natural, External. The discordant goods of the natural man to he separated, repre- sented by Lot and his acquisitions parting from Abram, 1581. Natural good after the affection of truth is separated and defiled with falses, repre- sented by Lot and his daughters, 2459, 2461, 2463, 2465, 2466, 2468. The pleasure and delight yielded by good and truth with the natural man when truth is initiated into good in the rational, represented by the servant of Isaac, 3167—31/0. Good and truth conceived and pro- duced in the natural man, represented by the birth of Esau and Jacob, 3286, 3293, 3294, 3297—3306. The good thus produced preferred to truth by the rational man, represented by Isaac's partiality for Esau, 3313. The good of the natural man conjoined to truth not genuine, represented by the marriage of Esau, 3468—3471. The good into which the natural man is first initiated when he becomes regenerate, represented by Jacob's arrival at Mount Gilead, 4117. The natural man from his proprium assuming spiritual good as his own, represented by the proposal of Laban to make a festival with music, &c., on ac- count of Jacob, 4138. Influx from the divine into natural good, or the celestial spiritual man initiated therein, represented by Joseph in the house of the Egyptian, 4973, 49/4, 4977, 4983—4985. Thev who are m natural good not spiritual easily persuaded that the false i*s true, represented by Potiphar hearkening to the false accusation of his wife, 5032. The church instituted by the heavenly disposition of good m the natural man, and all other goods and truths gathered thereto, represented by Israel and his sons dwelling in E»:ypt, 6028, 6081— 6087, 6101-6107. The divine truth with man in the midst of natural good mixed with evils and falses represented by Moses in the ark, 6717— 6726. The destruction of good merely exterior and the truth corresponding thereto, in consequence of evil and the falses of evil, represented by the flax and barley destroyed, and that by hail and fire mingled with hail, r^ll, 7601, 7602—7604. The good of natural life appropriated to the full represented by the bread or flesh eaten by the sons of Israel in Egypt, 8406—8410. Good from his own delight supplied to the natural man, represented by the quails sent at evening-time to the sons of Israel; and the good of truth by manna supplied in the morning, 8451—8464. The state of the natural man when good conjoined with his truth is derived from the spiritual, represented by the Hebrew servant and his wife, 8979—8991. The good of the natural man alienated by evil, represented by the ox stolen away, and the law respecting it, 9098—9103. The worship of the Lord from the good of innocence and charity in the natural man, and trom the truth of that good, represented by the burnt offerings, and the sacrifice of oxen, 9391, 9990. The worship of the Lord from natural delight or good, without spiritual, represented by the golden calf made by Aaron, 9391, 10,395—10,416. 4. The Good of Ignorance is predicated of man while he is being instructed from the tenth year of his age to the twentieth, ill. 2280. It is called good, but not the good of wisdom, because there is little intelligence associated with it, 2280. Those of whom it is predicated imagine that they do good and think truth of themselves ; hence, good i« GOO 261 and truth with them is obscured by what is evil and false, ill. 1712. See Ignorance. 5. Simple Good. They are said to be in simple good who are in the externals of the church, and believe the Word in siniplicity ac- cording to the literal sense, each as he can understand it, and live accordingly, ^77d. They receive the influx of the internal by good, but are in obscurity because they have no interior truths by which it can distinctly illustrate them, 6775. The divine law given to them is signified by Moses flying from Pharaoh and dwelling in Midian, 6772 — 6774, 6827. The priest of Midian having seven daughters, and their coming to water the flock, denotes the holy things of the church with them, and instruction in the good of charity, 6775, 6779. The shep- herds driving them away, denotes the teaching of those who are in evil opposed to instruction from those who are in the truths of simple good, 6779. Moses withstanding them, denotes the truth of the divine law, though unknown to them, overcoming the falses of evil, 6780, 6784. Moses dwelling with the family of the priest, and having one of his daughters to wife, denotes truth of a divine origin hereby ad- joined to their good, 6792, 6793. A son born of this union, denotes truth native with them from the heavenly marriage of good and truth, 6794. See Moses. They are properly said to be in simple good who are without the church, and who live in good according to their re- ligion, 6775, compare 3986. In this case it is also called common or collateral good, see below (6.) 6. Collateral Good and Middle Good. The affection of good in the natural man, or the affection of external good, is called external collateral good, for it pertains to the universal or common stock in which the Gentiles share, ill. 3665, 36/6. Collateral good is the good of those who constitute the church among the Gentiles, and do not possess the Word, 3778. Collateral good differs from good of the same stock in a right line by its conjunction with fallacies of the senses, in place of truths, 3778. Collateral good is the first medium by which genuine truths and goods can be introduced, 3778, 3972 — 3974. It is only useful as a means of introducing genuine goods and truths, and is afterwards relinquished, ill. 3983, 4063, 4145. Collateral good does not flow in directly from the Lord, or by the mediation of heaven, but is derived in a great measure from things of a woridly nature which appear as goods, and are not such, 4145, compare 4099, 4151. It is such, however, that the divine can be in it, and they who are in this good suffer themselves to be led by the Lord, for they are soft and yielding, 3986. It is called middle good, 4063, 4145, 4243. It is separated when worldly, corporeal, and terrestrial things are no longer regarded as an end, 4063. It is the good of the natural man that is separated from middle good, 4096, 4151. When the societies of spirits who are in middle good are in society with augels, it appears to them that the goods and truths of the angels are theirs, hence it appears when they separate that they have been deprived of them, 4151. Collateral good is so called because it does not flow in directly from heaven, they of whom it is predicated not having the Word, 4189, ill. 4197. It is predicated of good works within which is the good of charity, 4 189. For the representation of collateral good, and its connec- tion with the procedure of regeneration. See Laban, Jacob, Nations. 1. 2G2 GOO 7. Domestic Good. Natural domestic good is the good that man derives from his parents, which is interior from the father and exterior from the mother, ill. 3518. At the commencement of regeneration domestic good and the truth thence derived appear to man like genuine good and truth, 3556. The manner in which this apparent good, and its external delight, serves as the means of producing the genuine good that flows in from the Lord, is represented by Jacob simulating the person of Esau, and his taking two kids from the flock, and serving them to Isaac for venison, &c., 3516 — 3518, 3527, 3535 — 3542, 3548, 3550, 3552, 3563, ill. 3570. See Esau, Jacob. 8. The Good of Remains [reliquiarum bonum^. See Remains, and The Good of Infancy y below. 9. The Good of Infancy. There are three kinds of good signified by Remains, namely the good of infancy insinuated to the tenth year, the good of ignorance insinuated during instruction, to the twentieth year, and the good of intelligence procured by reflecting upon good and truth, and by temptations, 2280. The good of infancy is not equal in kind to the good of ignorance, and much less to the good of intelli- gence, for as yet it is without knowledge, 2280. The good of infancy and the good of life, thence derived, are the same as natural good, and it is made spiritual by the implantation of truth, 3504. Good in man without truth is Hke the good of infancy, in which there is no wisdom, but the man is formed by truth, or the intelligence of wisdom conjoined with good, ill. 3726. The good of innocence and charity flows in from the Lord in early infancy, and in the succeeding age is drawn to- wards the interiors, where it is preserved by the Lord, in order to temper the states of life which are induced afterwards, 3793, fully illustrated 5135. Without this good, man would be worse than any wild beast, 3793. As the good of infancy is indrawn, evil enters into its place in the natural man, where the false copulates with it and forms as it were a marriage ; hence the necessity of regeneration, and the heavenly marriage of good and truth, 3793. With those who be- come regenerate there are continual changes of the states of good ; thus, the good of infancy is varied and changed into the good of boy- hood, and soon to the end of life, 4136. When the goods and truths of infancy and boyhood are recalled by those who are in evil, and ap- plied to the confirmation of evils and falses, the spiritual life is destroyed, for then remains are consumed, ill. by the signification of stealing, 5135 ; compare 7601. See Thief. The good of infancy is the be- ginning of the new will, which is opened and continually perfected in adult age with the regenerate, but closed with the evil, ill. 9296; com- pare 9742. The good of infancy is the habitation of the Lord himself with man, 9296, ill. 9473. The good of innocence and charity is im- planted in infants and children, to serve as a plane for the reception of truth, 10,110, 2306. See Remains. The salvation of those in whom any good of infancy and early life yet remains, signified in the intercession of Abraham for the people of Sodom, 2277—2285. The good of life derived from the good of in- fancy desired by the rational man, signified by Isaac's desire to bless Esau and eat of his venison, 3496 — 3505. 10. The Good of Life. All the good of life, in general and in par- ticular, is comprehended in charity, 2388, 3324; see below, 3923. GOO 263 . ( The good of life, or the afl^ection of good, is from the Lord, and is in- sinuated by an internal way, man not knowing; but faith or the truth of doctrine is received externally, 2875, 3324, and citations. The good of life is not the good of the church, or spiritual good, until doctrinals are adjoined thereto, but only a potency which may become such, like the good of the Gentiles who are in ignorance of the Word, 3310, ill. 8002. The church is formed by the life of good and the doctrine of truth, 3305. The good of life, the good of truth, and the good of doc- trinals are most distinct from each other; the good of life flows from the will, the good of truth from the understanding, and the good of doctrinals is of science, 3332. All the good with which man is imbued in infancy and childhood by the love of his parents and companions, &c., remains permanently with him, and becomes the good of life ; without such good man would be worse than any wild beast, 3494, The good of infancy and the good of life thence derived is not spiritual, because it is without science, without intelligence, and without wisdom ; but it becomes spiritual by the implantation of truth, thus by regene- ration, 3504. The difi^erence between the evil and the good in respect to truths is, that the latter have an affection for truth on account of good ; hence the good of life derived from truth is the first state of reformation, 3539. When man is regenerating truth is apparently in the first place ; but when he is regenerated the good of life is first, 3539. The procedure described through four successive states, 3603 ; see below (11), (20). At the commencement of man's regeneration the aff*ection of natural truth appears to him to be the good of life, 3546 — 3548, 3556. The good of life consists in the works of charity, and charity is the holy principle of faith, ill. 3923. The good of life and the holy principle of faith comprise all things of the church, for the one is the external and the other the corresponding internal, 3921, 3964. All who are in the good of life, that is, who live in love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, are saved, 3986. All things in heaven and the church have respect to good and truth, thus all the truths of doctrine and all the goods of life are included in them, 4390. The good of life is made spiritual good by conjunction with truth, 7724. The veriest worship that can be off*ered to the Lord is from the good of life made spiritual, 7724. The salvation of those who are in faith when they recede from evil, and thus come into the good of life, signified by the deliverance of Lot when the cities of the plain were destroyed, 2386 — 2393. The good of life procured from sensual truths and scientifics signified by Esau as a man of the field or hunter, 3309, 3310. The good of life given with the good of truth and the good of doctrinals signified by Esau sustained by the pottage of Jacob, 3331 — 3335. The good of life from the aflection of good in the natural man, prior and superior to the afi^ection of truth, signified by Esau as the greater son, 3494, 3603. 1 1 . The Good of Truth is the good that exists from truth, thus it is truth appearing as good, 3295. The good of truth is the good done by man before he is regenerated, thus it is good done from the under- standing, 3295 ; ill. 3310. The order in which man proceeds from his sensual state in becoming spiritual is from doctrinals to the good of doctrinals, from the good of doctrinals to the good of truth, and from the good of truth to the good of life ; when in the good of life the 264 GOO order is inverted and he regards all truth and doctrine from good, 3332; compare 3603, 3701, 3882, 4538, 6396. The good of life is of the will, the good of truth is of the understanding, and the good of doctnnals is of science, 3332. They who put faith and knowledge before charity, and thence derive the good which they do, are in the good ol truth ; and this good, compared with the good of charity, is hard and inflexible, 3459. The Lord conjoins himself with those who are in the good of truth, but not in the same way as with those who are m the good of charity, thus remotely, 3459, 3463. They are in the good of truth who are in the doctrinals of faith alone, but as to life in good, 3463. They that are in the good of truth have no per- ception of good, but only a kind of persuasion that such and such things are good and true because they are enjoined by their doctrinals ; hence they are easily led into falses, 3463. The good of truth is pre- dicated when truth is apparently in the first place at the commencement ot reformation and regeneration, 3539, 3995. Before regeneration it IS supposed that good consists in doing what the truth teaches; vet this is not good, but truth, 3603. The state of those who are in the good of truth compared with the state when good is regarded in the Q^m^ ?^i! ^^^\^H ^^"^^ is ^-^P^ete with ineffable wisdom and felicity, 3610. The good of truth and the truth of good are inverse in respect ^^firn v; f ^^^"'^ regeneration, but afterwards they are conjoined, 3669 ; dl by an example, 3688. The good of truth is good derived iTom truth in the natural man ; the truth of good the contrary, 3677. Ihe good of truth is the affection of truth for the sake of life, for life is the good which is regarded in truth by those who are afterwards regenerated 3865. The affection of truth without the good of truth, which IS a life according thereto, is from self, and not from the Lord, hence it does not constitute the church, 3963. Goods flows in from the Lord while man is regenerating, and inapplies itself to his truths, from which It produces itself as the good of truth ; after regeneration the priority of the good is acknowledged, and truth is apprehended as the truth of good, 3995; compare 4385. By reason of this inversion, the goods of charity are oflen called the fruits of faith, 3995. By good, simply so called, is meant the good of the will ; by good of truth, the good of the understanding, ///. 4169. The good of truth indicates one of the states of good and truth in their procedure to con- junction, 42/3, 4538. When man is in the good of truth he comes into temptations, but not before then, ill. 4274. The good of truth is I^ji^ iQon '•r?5i^''^."} ^^'^ "memory into will and act, 4337, briefly, tli^' «^ in' n n/^^2,' ^^ f ^^^^' ^"^^^ ^^95, ill. 5595, 6065, 6427 783a, 8649, 9404. Truth passes into the will, and thus becomes the f^^^l ^l^of^'j^^- ^'^V"^ ^?^ ""^^^^ ^' *^^°^ externally, 4353 ; compare 5301, o;,26. It is when the good flowing in from the Lord meets with the good of truth m the will that the conjunction of good and truth takes place, 433/ ; zlL 4353, particularly 4984 ; compare 7056. The good of truth increases with man so far as he exercises charity from good will, thus according to the quality and degree of his love of the neighbour, 4390 The truth of doctrine becoming the truth of life is called the good of truth, 4539 By the good of truth, otherwise called 4^«i^°«9«o ^ ' '' ?'T^ ^T- ^^^^'^^^ ^^^ neighbour, or charity, 4581, 6289. The good of truth is the good of charity acquired by the GOO 265 ) . ► truth of faith ; it is called the celestial spiritual of the natural, 4598 • or, more generally, spiritual good, 6065, 6289, 7835. Truth producing good, by passing into the will, is as a seed passing into the womb • iti production in act is comparatively like going out from the womb ; hence the import of regeneration or the new birth, ill, 4904.

Ihe truth of good is predicated of the celestial church, because the perception of truth with them was wholly from good ; and the good of truth IS predicated of the spiritual church, because it is by truth they are led to good, 5733, 7957, 8458, 8521, 9404. The good of truth ^«9n'^' T ""! T"^' 7*f ^ ^? appropriated by being willed and done, o820.

They who are in the good of truth are in the internal of the church, but they who are m the truth of faith, and not in its good manifestly, are in the external, 622o ; compare 7474. The good of truth is called the good of the spiritual church, or the good of spiritual truth, because it con- sists in what IS done according to instruction in good, 6277, 7957 Ihe good of truth is various according to the doctrines from which it is deduced ; it is likewise more or less impure, 6427.

On this account, and lest the spiritual life should sicken, the good of truth does not remain with S'fo"^''' «' Pu"^^' ^"t ^' tempered by the delights of natural pleasure, 8487. By the appropriation of the good of truth man is led to heaven but he IS not admitted into heaven, for he is not in the order of heaven until he acts from good, 8539, 8559, 9832; ill. 8722, 8772. By good from truth the spiritual church is meant, for that church is in good from truths, 9404. ^ The origin and procedure of the good of truth with those who be- 266 GOO come regenerate represented by the history of Esau and Jacob, 3232, 3233,3288, 3293, 3294, 3296, 3297, 3300, 3301, 3303, 3306, 3317 -3320, 3325, 3336, 3470, 341^, 3494, 3502, 3508, 3509, 3539, 3550, 3563, 3576, 3588, 3599, 3601—3607, 3678, 3687, 3688, 4232, 4239—4241, 4247-— 4249. 4265, 4266, 4269, 4337, 4381—4387.

The Good of Faith makes the spiritual church, the truth of faith does not make the church, but introduces to it, 2669. The good of faith, that is, the life of love and charity according to the dictates of faith, is the veriest essential of the church, and no confidence or saving faith can be given except in that good, 2982. The good of faith is what is called in the Word charity towards the neighbour, and charity towards the neighbour is a life according to the ten commandments, 3249. The good of truth is sometimes called the good of faith, and it is predicated of all who are led to good by external means or instruction, 4581. Truth, when it is received in the will, becomes the good of faith, ill, 4984. When truth is received in the will, and thereby passes into the life, it becomes the good which is called the good of truth, or the good of faith, or spiritual good, or the good of the spiritual church, 6289. They who are in the good of faith belong to the external church ; they who are in the good of charity to the internal, 7474. So far as any one is in a state of peace from the good of faith, so far he is in divine providence, 8478. The good of faith consists in all that is deduced from the doctrines of the church with a view to use or life as an end, and so done from obedience ; the good of charity, in what is done from the affection of good, 9230. The internal of the good of faith is the good of charity, which is spiritual ; the internal of the good of charity IS the good of mutual love, which is celestial ; the internal of the good of mutual love is the good of innocence, in which is divine good pro- ceeding from the Lord's divine human, 9473, 9683 ; and with regard to the corresponding heavens, 9670, 9673, 9680, 9682, 9741, 9812, 9873, 10,270 ; see below (17). The good of faith is from illumination by light proceeding from the Lord, for that light is truth, and when it forms a new will in the intellectual part of man it becomes good, 9742. They who are in the ultimate heaven, signified by the court of the taber- nacle, are in the good of faith, 9742. 13. The Good of Doctrine is love and charity, the truth of doctrine IS faith, ill. 2572. See Doctrine, especially (2) (4) : Charity, (1) : Faith. ^ * 14. The Good of Scienii/ics. Scientifics cannot enter into the memory unless they are introduced by some affection, which afterwards mheres with them ; hence they form a kind of marriage with their own goods, and as goods are respectively interior, scientifics are the recep- GOO 267 tacles of good, ill. 5489, ill. 5881, ill. by the case of instinct with brute animals, &c., 6323; briefly eV/. 8005. Scientifics (understand scientifics and their own goods conjointly) are also the receptacles of the goods of charity and faith, ill. 5213; compare 1472, 1486, 4965; ill. 5201, 5373, ill. 6004, 6022, 6071, ill. 6077, ill. 6751, ill. 7770, espe- cially 9922, and citations of seriatim passages. The good of scientifics IS the delight arising from scientific truths, 5670. See Scientifics, Vessels. 15. national Good. The man who is in truth without the good of charity, thus rational truth alone, is morose and pugnacious, ill. 1949 —1951, 1964. Rational good is mild and clement, patient and yield- ing, for it is the good of love and mercy, hence it never fights, and yet is always victorious, 1950. Rational good is never subjected by evil because it is divine, and no evil can subsist within its sphere, 1950. The Lord was never tempted as to divine rational good, but as to truth, ill. 2813. The life of charity is perfected according to the quantity and quality of truths, for they are the vessels of good, and good con- stitutes the rational state when it becomes the life of truth, 2189. Rational good to which truth is adjoined has much in it derived from worldly delights, because it is not formed from truths alone, but also from sensual and other dehghts into which spiritual good is insinuated by the Lord, 2204. Rational good is procured by reflection on good and truth, and by temptations consequent thereon ; how superior it is to the good of infancy and the good of ignorance, 2280. The genuine rational principle is from good and exists from truth, 3030. The good from which it is, flows in by an internal way ; the truth by which it exists by an external way, 3030. Rational good formed internally is the ground itself; truth is the seed inseminated therein, 3030. The influx of good into the natural mind is through the rational, thus by an internal way ; but truth flows in by the sensual faculties, especially those of hearing and sight, 3098. The conjunction between good and truth is not where their first confluence takes place in the natural mind, but in the rational ; hence truth must be first elevated out of the natural sphere into the spiritual, 3098; see below, 3952 (21). Only those truths are received, when they are elevated into the rational sphere, which agree with rational good, and by insertion and insemination therein can act as one with it, 3101. The election of truth is effected by the illustration of the natural man, and the natural man is illustrated by the influx of good, 3102, 3141, 3166, 3167. Truths are not initi- ated into good without the most exquisite exploration and caution, to prevent the least minimum of what is false being conjoined thereto, 3110, 31 16. See Initiation. The influx of good is at first remote, because it can only be received as instruction proceeds ; the initiation and conjunction of truth is also according to the quality of instruction, 3141. Good can only flow in, and thus the rational state be formed, as the loves of self and the world, or evil lusts and false persuasions, are removed, 3142, 3147. Man is not born rational, but with the potency of becoming rational by the acquisition of truths, and their con- junction with good, 3161, 3175. It is good that elects to itself and forms the truth to which it may be conjoined ; for it acknowledges nothing for truth but what agrees with itself, 3161, 3570; ill. 9034, 9079. The affection of good and the affection of truth in the natural man are 268 GOO GOO 269 f It as brother and sister ; but the affection of truth elevated therefrom into the rational, and there conjoined with good, is as a married woman, 3160. The good into which truth is initiated, and with which it is conjoined in the rational mind, is the love of God and the neighbour ; for from this love all human good is derived, 3175. When truth is conjoined with this good, thus when man is regenerated, the one is infinitely multiplied and the other infinitely fructified ; for their offspring is from a legitimate marriage union, 3186, 3987. The affection of truth and perception of good first come together when the latter relinquishes mere scientifics, and flows spontaneously into life, ill. 3203. When the rational state is formed, good and truth are both conceived together in the natural mind, namely, from rational good as a father, and ra- tional truth as a mother, 3286, 3299. Both together, namely, rational good and truth, are called the soul, but still good is the principal, and truth clothes it as with a tender vessel or body, thus good is interior, within truth, 3299. The marriage of good and truth, thus the rational principle, is barren as regards truth, except in so far as it can flow in and regenerate the natural, 3286. Rational good flows in without truth, thus immediately into the good of the natural man ; and also mediately by truth, 3314, ilL 3563, ill, 3570, ill. 3573, briefly, 3616. By the mediation of its own truth, or the good of the natural man, it also flows into the truth of the natural, and thereby into its good, same numbers. Hence the conjunction between the good of the rational degree and the good of the natural, is stronger than that between good in the one degree and truth in the other, 3314, 3564. Good and truth produced in the natural man are called the offspring of the rational ; still it is not the rational that produces and begets them, but influx thereby from the Lord, 3494, 3513. Rational good is manifested as a certain fire of life glowing in the countenance, and rational truth as the light of that fire ; natural good appears as a more obscure fire ; corpo- real good as hardly anything but a heat, 3527; compare 4906. When rational good flows in by the medium of truth, it is only somewhat similar to good that is manifested in the natural man, and not genuine ; for it is good in the outward form, but truth in the interior, 35*63 . The good of the rational man consists of the ends of life which have good for their object, namely, the good of the neighbour, and thus the Lord's kingdom, ill. 3570. This good, when it flows in, appro- priates nothing in the natural but what accords with itself; the remain- der is relinquished as the means of introducing still more that is accord- ant, 3570; see below, 3972, &c. (21). It conjoins itself with good first, and with truth afterwards, 3570, 3576; compare 3160. Its conjunction with the good of the natural man is immediate and close, when man is so led by the Lord as never to intend and think anything but what is good, 3573. Its conjunction could never be effected except by innumerable means, which are treated of in the internal sense of the Word, 3573. When it flows into the natural man, the good of the rational appears in a common form, and hereby it produces truths almost as life produces fibres in the body, and disposes them to use ; by truths thus disposed into celestial order it produces another good, whereby truths are again formed ; and so on in successive derivations, 3579. The good of the rational is like a seed planted in the good and truth of the natural man as ground, and there producing and mul- tiplymg Itself, .// 3671.

Celestial good is love to the Lord, and truth derived therefrom is love to the neighbour, or spiritual good, 2227, 2507. Celestial good is the good of love to the 97 1« ' T'^oTf^ f,"!' ^^^ ^°°^ ^^ ^^^"ty towards the neighbour, ill. 2718, I//. 3240, 4138, 4982, ill 5365, ill. 5922, 9277, 10,261. Celes- tial good IS love to the Lord, and its truth is the love of the neighbour- spiritual good is charity towards the neighbour, and its truth, the doctrine of charity, thus, faith, 3240. The celestial are in the good •77 A^o 1 V, ^Z^ ' ^^"^ spiritual, in the good and truth of faith, 3240, J// 4581 til. 10,577. The good of faith and the good of charity are both called spiritual good, and that spiritual good is from the Lord, J 1* ^ natural man could have no knowledge of spiritual good w ^'"o^ff ^^If'''"' revelation, thus, it can only be derived from the word, 3768. The good of one's neighbour and country and the good ot the church are made spiritual good by the conjunction of good with truth, ill 3951. There are two kingdoms most distinct from each other m heaven, the celestial kingdom consisting of those who are principled m love to the Lord, and the spiritual kingdom consisting of those who are principled in charity towards the neighbour. 4138 2660 07«n' o«t^' '^,^\ 'V'^' ^^'^' ^^^^' ^^^^> and citations; ilL mt 9780, 9873; til. by the heart and lungs, and by the will and under- standing. 3887-3888, 9817-9818, 9993, 9995. There are three dis- tinct planes or receptivities of influx from the Lord, the first or interior ot which is the conscience of spiritual good and truth formed in the rational man, ill. 4167, 2046. The celestial are they who are in the perception of good and thus do good from good, 4169. In general, all good that IS of love and charity is called celestial, and all truth that is thereby of faith and intelligence, spiritual, 4286. Spiritual good, in the Word, is called charity, and it consists in doing good for no selfish end but from the delight of the affection ; no one can come into this good except by regeneration, 4538. The good of love is called celestial good the good of faith spiritual good; and that the former is received by an internal way from the Lord, the latter imbued externally, 4581. They 270 GOO GOO 271 who are in the good of celestial love arc most conjoioeJ to the Lord, for they dwell in a state of innocence in the inmost heaven, 4/50. Ce- lestial good flowing in from the Lord forms the new voluntary part in the natural man, and spiritual good the new intellectual part, ill. 5351 — 5354, ill. 5510, particularly 5526. The new will is formed hy the confluence of truth received externally, with good received internally from the Lord; thus the truth is made good by being willed, and such good is spiritual, 5595, ill. 5826. Spiritual good, or the will of that good, is formed in the intellectual part, celestial good is received in the voluntary part, 5595, 2/15, 2954, 3235, and citations of seriatim pas- sages; 4328, ill. 4493, ill. 5113, 6296. 7233, ill. 8521. Spiritual good constitutes the internal of the church, for it consists in the light of heaven and has in it the affection of good and the perception of truth, 5965, ill. 6256, compare 7992, 8042. Spiritual good is the good of truth, for it originates from the understanding, but celestial good ori- ginates from the will, 6065, 6647. Spiritual good is called the good of faith, the good of truth, and the good of charity, thus the good of the spiritual church, 6225, 7836, 9277, see below, 6435. Spiritual good is predicated both of the natural man (when regenerate) and of the rational, but the former is in obscure perception compared with the latter, ill. 6256, 6289, 7233, and citations, compare 3374. Spiritual good is various, because derived from various doctrines, and is also impure, ///. 6727, ill. 2715, 2718. Celestial good in the internal is the good of love to the Lord, and in the external the good of mutual love; spiritual good in the internal is the good of charity towards the neighbour, and, in the exter- nal, the good of faith, ill. 6435, 9680, 9741, 9780, 9873; compare 6366, 9993, 10,077—10,079. Spiritual good is the good of life when it is invested with truths, as a soul or essence with a body, 7724. Spiritual good derives its quality from the copiousness and connection of the truths of faith, 7761, 7977. Spiritual good has the church and the salvation of others for its end, and cannot be given to those who are only in the external delight of truth, ill. 8977. When the truths re- ceived into the memory come under the intuition of the internal man, such truths are elected as agree with good flowing in from the Lord, and conjoined thereto ; these elect truths are understood by the truths of faith, and good thus formed by spiritual good, ///. 9034, 9206 ; prac- tically, 4538 ; see below (21). None but those who are in spiritual good can confess truth from faith ; but without such good the truths of faith may be confessed from doctrine, 5747. Spiritual good is the proceed- ing of celestial good, and invests or clothes it, ill. 9817. Celestial good is that of the love of doing truths derived from the Word for the sake of good, thus for the sake of the Lord, 10,252. Celestial good is brought into existence with man by truths received externally into the memory, out of which they are elevated, first, by a life according to them, and afterwards by the love of them, in which case they form celestial good, 10,252, 10,266. Celestial good both exists and subsists by truths, which are disposed in order from inmost to outmost, thus one series within another, the ultimates containing all being composed of sensual truths or scientifics, 10,252, 10,266. The generation and formation of celestial good is entirely dependent on the acquisition of truths, and their orderly arrangement in the mind; and this takes place from whatever affection truths were at first acquired, providing only the evd affections are successively put off, and the man purified ill. 10,266. As to the middle good or state called celestial spiritual' 4277, 4278, 4286, 5805 ; and that called the spiritual of the celestial' and the celestial of the spiritual, 4586. Celestial spiritual good is the medium by which the good of mutual love and the good of charity are conjoined, or the celestial kingdom and the spiritual, 6435. Spiritual and celestial good freely given by the Lord to those who are receptive ot them IS denoted by his grace and mercy, ill. 10,577. See Grace. l-rom the want of knowledge concerning spiritual good it has become a question, especially among the learned, in what the highest good con- sists ; and there is scarcely any one who knows that it is perceived from mutual love or the good of charity without any end of self and the world, 5365. For the representation of celestial and spiritual good see Gold, Colours, Precious Stones, Bread, Wine, Food Feasts, Oil, Fat, &c. ' ^i ^l* ^^f^^^o"^ 0/ Love, the Good of Mutual Love, and the Good of Charity, The good of love is predicated of those who are led to good by the internal way, thus of celestial good, ill. 4581, ///. 10,577. Ihere is celestial good of love and spiritual good of love, and these two f ^° n '^^;E, W°s^^ to the two evils of the loves of self and the world, ill. 4/.')0. rhe good of love is a spiritual fire, and the affection of that good IS Its proceeding heat, ill, 4906. The good of love is the heat proceeding from the Lord as a sun, 9490. All good is either the good ot love to the Lord, or the good of love to the neighbour, by which men and angels are conjoined one with another and all to the Lord ; all evil on the contrary, is either of the love of self or the love of the world' and is the cause of disjunction, 4997. The good of love is interior, the good of charity respectively exterior, ill, 9263. Such is the communi- cative nature of the good of love, that when it is said to be in any one It is also as truly said to be from him, for its desire is to impart all its own to others, 9310. The good of love is celestial, and it is by it that spiritual good exists, and by which angels and men are conjoined to the Lord, 98 1 7, 9874. The good of love is the internal good of the celes- tial kingdom ; the good of mutual love, its external, ill. 6435, 9680 9741, 9873, 99 12. The good of mutual love is in the place of faith to the celestial, for with the spiritual, faith or the good of faith, is exter- nal 6435, 9680 ; see below, 9404. The good of mutual love and the good of charity coincide together as internal and external ; for the o-ood of mutual love is the external of the celestial kingdom, and the good of charity is the internal of the spiritual ; the difference between them not previously distinguished by the author, 6435, compare 5922. The good ot mutual love is more interior than the good of charity because it is generated out of the rational man, while the good of charity is gene- rated out of the natural, 6435. The good of mutual love and the good ot charity are not conjoined as the internal and external of one and the same degree, but by a middle good which is called celestial spiritual, 6435, compare the illustrations 4277, 4278, 4286, 5805. The good of mutual love is celestial good as formed without truths ; good formed bv truths is spiritual, 9404. The good of mutual love is the celestial love ot truth, 9466, 9912. Good in man makes his heaven ; the good of love the inmost or third heaven, the good of charity the middle or second heaven, and the good of faith the first or ultimate heaven, ill. 272 GOO 9741. The three heavens are comprised in two universal kingdoms, the celestial and spiritual, each of which is internal and external ; hence, the good of the inmost heaven is interiorly the good of love to the Lord, and exteriorly the good of mutual love ; that of the middle hea- ven is interiorly the good of charity towards the neighbour, and exte- riorly the good of faith; and that of the ultimate heaven is the externals of both, which coalesce together, 9/41. The good of mutual love flow- ing in gives existence to the good of charity, for there is no good which does not depend from some interior good, and the order of their exist- ence within one another denotes the order of influx, ill. 9912. The good of mutual love is the external good of innocence, and unless the good of charity have innocence within it, it is not the good of charity, 9912. They who are in the good of charity are in the internal church, they who are in the good of faith in the external, ill. 7474. The good of charity, or spiritual good, derives its quality from the copiousness of the trnths of faith by which it is formed and from their connection one with another, hence, it is called also the good of truth, 7759, 7700, 8658. The good of charity in the interior man is the good of spiritual life, and it comes to perception as what ought to be, or duty, and makes tiie soul con- tent; in the exterior man it is the good of natural life, and is sensibly perceived as delight, 9 103. In the other life, the interior good of charity also comes to sensation, thus, is perceived as delight, 9103. The good of love to the Lord makes the celestial church, the good of charity towards the neighbour the spiritual church, 9277. No one can be in the good of charity from himself, for it flows in from the Lord ; but man can remove the evils which obstruct its reception, and then it is freely given him and forms his new will, ill. 5354, ill. 5526, 5595. See Charity, Love. 18. The Good of Innocence. The innocence of infancy is only a plane to receive genuine innocence, which is the innocence of wisdom, briefly, 2280 ; ill. from experience, 2306 ; ill. and sh. 5608, and cita- tions. It is innocence that makes good to be good, 2526, 10,021. Unless innocence, which is the same thing as love to the Lord, be within charity it is not charity, and unless charity with innocence in it be within the works of charity, they are not works of charity, 5608. The good^ of innocence and charity are both' interior and exterior, 6529 — 6532. The good of innocence is both interior and exterior because the Lord flows in by innocence r.nd vivifies good, and good is interior and exterior, ill. 7840. The Lord, who is innocence itself, flows-in into the inmost heaven immediately, because innocence reigns there, but into the second heaven mediately, 7836. It is by the mediate influx of innocence that the societies of the second heaven are arranged according to their goods ; and when the state of any society is not full enough for the innocence flowing in, other societies are conjoined, ill. 7836. They are in innocence above all others who are in the third hea- ven, because the good of innocence is the good of love to the Lord; they are also the most wise, for innocence and wisdom dwell together, 7877. Tiie good of charity or innocence in the external man, is of the same quality as the good of infancy; a series of passages concerning innocence cited, 10,021. The difl^erence between the innocence of infancy and the innocence of wisdom is, that hereditary evil is within the former, and innocence is without ; while innocence is within in the latter case. GOO 273 I and hereditary evil without, 4563 ; the diff'erence further ill. 9301, and citations. The good of innocence exists in three degrees, interior, mid- dle, and exterior, for it is the essential itself of all good, and is thereby in all truth, 10,132, 10,133. The good of innocence is to acknowledge that all truths and goods are from the Lord and nothing from man, thus, it is to be led by the Lord and not by self, 10,210. Without the good of innocence there can neither be love to the Lord, nor charity towards the neighbour, nor a living faith, for it is the one and only thing that receives the Lord, 10,131. As to the good of external inno- cence represented in the sacrifices, 9391, 10,021, 10,132, 10,135, 10,210. As to the good of internal innocence and middle good so represented, 10,042, 10,132, 10,134, 10,210. 19. Christian Good is the good of charity towards the neighbour, without which the truths of the church cannot exist in any order, ill. 5704. No one can be led to Christian good except by the truths of faith, 8516, particularly 8635—8640. By the good with which truths are to be conjoined is meant no other than Christian good, 8754. All Christian good, or spiritual good, has in itself the truths of faith, for it derives its quahty from those truths ; if it does not derive its quality from truths, it is not Christian good but natural good, which is not saving, 8772. 20. Its Procedure with those who become Regenerate. Good is not good, neither is it made fruitful, until man is regenerated; because before this there is not in good its essential soul, 3186. While man is in his unregenerate state it is evil that he believes to be good, and the false that he believes to be true, ill. 3701, 3793, end. It is necessary for man to be instructed in what is evil and false and in what is good and true, for without knowledge no one can be imbued with any good, 3701. In the first state of those who are regenerating it appears that good and truth are from themselves, and to this opinion they are relin- quished for the reasons explained ; when regenerated they believe that good and truth are from the Lord, and the angels sensibly perceive that it is so, 874, 2946, 2960, 2974, 3310. The good that is done by man in the first state of regeneration is not the good of faith, nor is the truth that he thinks really truth, because the good of faith is not in it, 874. In the second state the good of charity, which is good from the Lord, is received, and then faith becomes living, ill. 880. In this state natural good is as the vessel of spiritual good, and spiritual good of celestial ; thus, life from the Lord pervades all, 880, 1420—1422. So long as man is not regenerate the good of the external man is at enmity with that of the internal ; and, so far as they cannot^ be brought into correspondence, the former must be separated, 1577. The apparent goods and truths which occupy man before regeneration are mixed with evils and falses, but they are excused by ignorance and the absence of actual evil, 1667. The good acquired in temptations is the good of intelligence or wisdom ; but there are less degrees of good without temptations, namely, the good of infancy and the good of ignorance, ill. 2280. Good from the Lord continually flows in, but it is only received by man so far as he recedes from evil; otherwise, it cannot be inapplied •to his truths, for the evil of life impedes, 2388, 2411. The good of life or the aff*ection of good is insinuated from the Lord by an internal way; the truth of doctrine or faith is rece^'ed externally, 2875. The truths T 274 GOO ) If li thus received are conjoined to the affection of good, and thus good is received in them as vessels, so far as man freely submits himself, 28/5. Good continually flows in from the Lord, but unless the natural man is prepared for its reception by purification from evil, it is perverted or suffocated, 3142, 3147. Good is infinitely fructified, and truth is infi- nitely multiplied after their conjunction in the heavenly marriage by regeneration, 3186, 5345, 5355. In order to regenerate man the good of charity is insinuated from the Lord into his rational mind, and to this good is adjoined truth received from the natural ; by the rational principle thus formed, the natural man is at length brought into cor- respondence with the spiritual, 328G. In the regeneration of the natu- ral man its good and truth are conceived together, namely from rational good as a father, and rational truth as a mother ; for it is good that im- parts life by the medium of truth, 3299. Natural good is connate with man, but not truth, on account of hereditary evil ; nevertheless, truth adheres to good with some power, 3304. It is good that forms the ground of regeneration, thus, in which the Word can be inseminated, 3310. Good producing itself according to instruction and doctrine forms the first state of regeneration ; when regenerate, man no longer does good from doctriuals but from love and charity, ill. 3310. In the first state of regeneration the doctrinals of truth are stored in the me- mory without order, but they are reduced into order by good flowing in, which appears as the affection of truth, and appetites the truths that are agreeable to its own state, 3316, ill. 35/0, 5704 ; see below, 3579. The spiritual man when he is regenerating proceeds from the doctrine of truth to the good of Hfe, but when he is regenerated the order is in- verted ; for from the good of life he now regards the good of truth, from this again the good of doctrinals, and from the good of doctrinals, the doctrmals of truth themselves, 3332, compare 3603, 3/01, 3882, 4538. Some affection always adjoins itself to whatever enters the memory, and when the affection recurs the memory of the thing recurs, thus they are always reproduced together ; in this manner the doctrinals of faith are associated with the affections of various loves, and as far as possible with the genuine affection of charity, 3336. Regeneration commences when the affection of good to which the things of the memory are thus adjoined is inspired by the Lord; for the remains of former states are now reproduced, and by these, as a medium, falses and evils are re- moved, 3336. See Remains. In the process of regeneration the truths adjoined to natural good are as fibres which are led and applied into form by interior good; thus the state of natural good is re-formed, 3470. Man is first regenerate when the understanding and the will are united, and thus, capable of acting as one ; for then good can be done from good, 3539. Good proceeds into the natural man by the medium of truth at the commencement of regeneration, and manifests somewhat similar to good, but it is in inverted order, and hence not genuine, 3563. Its procedure in the formation of genuine good is like that of the soul which forms the child in the ovulum and womb of the mother, ill. 3570; see below 4904. By the common form in which it first presents Itself It disposes the natural mind into order, and forms truths; by these again it produces good, and so on, 3579. Regeneration proceeds, at first, by ascent, from truth to good ; afterwards its procedure is from good, whence all truth is regarded as from an eminence, thus by descent. GOO 275 1 1 3882. While regeneration is proceeding man is preserved in a middle good to the intent that genuine goods and truths may be introduced, after which it is relinquished, 4063 ; and the illustrations, 3665, 3690, 3972—3974, 3982, 3986, 4145. The good into which they who be- come regenerate are first initiated is the good of the sensual things of the body, or pleasure, 4117, compare 8410. States of good are varied and changed with the regenerate from infancy to the end of life, but of these changes man is in utter ignorance because there are no knowledges at the present day concerning good and truth, 4136. There are two general states with the man who is regenerating, the first when he is led by truth, and the second when he is led by good ; and until he is led by good he cannot come into heaven, 8516, 8539, 8559, 8754. The regenerate come into temptations when good assumes the first place, and begins to rule over truths, ill. 4256, ill. 4274, 4275, 5773. It is the conjunction of truths with good from the Lord, which takes place in the natural man, that constitutes regeneration, ill. 4353, 4380. Goods and truths were implanted by the Lord in the voluntary part with the man of the most ancient church, and in the intellectual part with those of the ancient church ; thus the influx of the good of love was received bv the former in the will, but with the latter a new will was created by regeneration, ill. 4493, and citations. The new will is formed when truth is received by the will comparatively as seed is re- ceived by the womb ; when this takes place good produces itself in act, or goes out from the womb and is born, ill. 4904. When man is first regenerated good does not appear but secretes itself in the interior man, but truth manifests itself, ill. 4925. There can be no influx of good from the Lord unless the natural man be regenerated, thus, unless good flow out into life, 5828, 6299. When man is regenerated good increases itself by truths, and truths are continually multiplied from good ; thus, the angels are perfected to eternity and yet cannot arrive far beyond the first degree of wisdom, 6648. When man is first reformed good is min- gled with evils and falses in the external man; but in the midst is divine truth operating into every individual part of the external, and continually flowing in with good and truth, 6724, compare 3993, 3995, 4005. The evil, and infernal spirits, are permitted to assault truths but not good, for in all good the Lord is present ; hence, the evil come into torment and cast themselves into hell when they draw near it, Q^77t 7474. Goods and truths are planted in man by temptations, but they are not arranged until after temptations, for it is only by the procedure of good that arrangement can take place, and good proceeds tranquilly, 8370, com- pare 5704, 5709, particularly 8754. The arrangement is from divine good by divine truth, and it commences when man begins to act from good ; because so long as he acts from truth he is tempted, 8643, ill. 8648, 8658. The good of the internal regenerates the good of the ex- ternal man, but not before its own state is filled, ill. 9103. Good itself is first infused in infancy and childhood, when it forms the commence- ment of the new will ; it is afterwards either closed up by evils of life, or it produces itself and is perfected by the truths of faith, ill. 9296. 9742. Man can only be regenerated by good, that is, evils and falses can only be removed, so far as he can be held in the good of charity, ill. 9937. His state is altogether according to the formation of the understanding by truths, and the wilF by goods from the earliest age, T 2 276 GOO ill. 10,298. The whole man is formed according to his good, and not to truth without good ; for when he is in good as to the will, he is in the truth of that good as to the understanding, ill. 10,3G7. The rege- neration of man is by good, but he is led to good by truth, the will consenting thereto, &c., ill. 10,367. See Regeneration, Freedom. 21. The connection of Good with Truths. Truth is the form of good, and is formed in man according to the quality of his good, 668. Truths cannot be regenerated except by goods and their delights, 6/1. Goods and their delights constitute the life of man, and they communi- cate their life to his truths, 6/8. No scientific or rational truth is communicable from the beginning to the end of life except by the de- light of some good, 678. Goods and truths are the genuine foods of man, by which the Lord operates his regeneration, 679, 680. The true life of man consists in good and truth, for it is only in good and truth that there can be life from the Lord, 3623. The truth of faith can only be rooted in man by the good of faith, that is, by the good of charity, ill. 880. There is external good and truth and internal good and truth, and they ought to correspond together and act as one, 1577, 1581. The true rational principle consists of good and truth, good being its soul or life, and truth accepting its life from good, 1950. Truth, in this case, is formed by good, and may be called its own proper form, thus, it partakes of the same celestial quality, 1950. The affection of good and the affection of truth are distinct things, and are respectively predicated of the will and the understanding ; hence, the union of good and truth is likened to a marriage, 1904. The affection of good con- sists in doing good from the love of good ; the affection of truth in doing good from the love of truth ; the former is predicated of the celestial man, the latter of the spiritual, 1997. Good and truth considered in themselves have no life, but are only instrumental to Ufe, which they derive from the affection of love ; hence, the quality of good and truth is according to the quality of the love or life, 1904. The multiplication of truth from good with those who are in charity, thus who are in the heavenly marriage, is so immense as to be inexpressible, especially so in the other life, 1941, 1997. The marriage of good and truth is con- tinually represented in the historical parts of the Word, because it pre- vails everywhere in the Lord's kingdom both in heaven and earth ; all nature likewise subsists from that marriage, 2173, 2184, 2508. Man is reformed and regenerated by the knowledges and scientifics of truth continually implanted in good, that is, in charity, and their accepting the life of charity, 2189. Goods are born and brought to maturity by the truths of faith, and hence they derive their quality from the qua- lity and quantity of such truths, 2190. Truth derived from good, in the genuine sense, is spiritual good, which is love towards the neigh- bour ; celestial good is love to the Lord, which is love derived from the Lord, 2227. The truths of faith are the vessels recipient of good, and they receive good in the degree that man recedes from evil, otherwise good cannot flow in, 2388. With those who are in the affection of truth, there is also the affection of good, but it only comes to their per- ception obscurely; but with those who are in the affection of good, and thereby in truth, its distinctions are clearly perceived, 2425. Good and truth are always proportionate to one another both in measure and de- gree, thus, where there is little good there is little perception of truth, GOO 277 «« 2429. Truth is not truth unless it contain good within it, 2434. In the Lord himself there is a marriage of divine good and divine truth, and all understanding and reason and science are conceived from a simi- lar marriage in man, 2508, fully ill. 2588 : and as to perception and con- science, 2831. Interior truths may be known, but they can never be received except by those that are in good, 2531. The proceeding of divine good flows-in into every man, but its reception is according to his rational apprehension of truths ; hence, it is of the greatest moment that truths be genuine, 2531, 7759 ; see below, 7887. They who are in the good of doctrine, which is love and charity, are in the truth of doctrine, which is faith, ill. 2572. All good is of the voluntary part of man ; all truth of the intellectual part, 2781. Good and truth with the spiritual is implanted in the intellectual part; with the celestial in the voluntary part; hence, the spiritual have no perception of good and truth like the celestial, ill. 2831 ; see 4493 (20). So far as any angel, spirit, or man, receives good and truth from the Lord, and believes that they are from him, so far he is in his kingdom, and contrariwise, 2904. The spiritual who have no perception of good are introduced to good by truth, hence they are called the redeemed or those bought with silver, 2937. What is false cannot be conjoined with good, nor what is true with evil, ill, 3033. To prevent the conjunction of anything false with good, or of anything true with evil, a most exquisite exploration takes place, i7/. 3110, 3116. See Initiation, Exploration. They who are in the affection of good are receptible of all truth according to the quantity and quality of the good with them, 3033. When good is formed so as to be intellectually perceived it is called truth ; hence, truth is the form of good, and in itself is good, 3049, 3121. No one is affected with any scientific or truth but for the sake of use ; hence, the use makes it to be good, and such as the use is, such is the good, 3049. When the natural man is illustrated by influx from the rational, good sees and acknowledges its own truth, and truth its own good ; thus they can be conjoined, 3101, 3102, 3179, 4358, 10,555. Good does not conjoin truth unless there be innocence and charity present with it; when this is not the case it is adjoined to some apparent good, 3110 ; see below, 7056. There is nothing in the universe, that is ac- cording to order, but what has reference to good and truth, and in man to the will and understanding as their receptacles, 3166, ill. 3704, 4390, 5232, 7256, 10,122. Good and truth are conjoined by mutual acknowledgment and consent ; when truth perceives in itself the image of good, and in good the very effigy of itself, 3179, 3180, ill. 9079, 9495. It is with good and truth as with offspring, for they are con- ceived, carried in the womb, born, and afterwards grow up to maturity; these being so many states of their progress, or conjunction, 3298, 3308, 3570. These states succeed each from infancy to old age, and with the good are continued to eternity ; thus, the angels are continually growing more perfect, 3308, 8772. Good and truth are conceived to- gether in the natural mind, from rational good as a father, and from rational truth as a mother; and these together are called the soul, 3299. When good and truth are predicated their subjects are to be understood, namely, those who are in good and truth, 3305, 4380. They are spoken of in the abstract by the angels, because they are not willing to attribute good and truth to themselves, and because all heaven is filled therewith; 278 GOO the ancients also were accustomed to speak of them abstractly, 4380. When good first appetites truth it appears under the form of the affec- tion of truth, 3316 ; see below, 4247. Truths and whatever else is con- tained in the memory of the natural man form an undigested and chaotic mass, until good flows in by regeneration and discriminates and reduces all to order, 3316. It is according to the appearance, and to the proce- dure of regeneration with the spiritual man, that truth is held to be prior and superior to good, or faith to charity, but this appearance is a fallacy, fully ///. 3324, 332.5, 3330, 3336. Hence, truth is apparently in the first place when man is regenerating ; but the good of hfe is in the first place when he is regenerated, 3539, 3546 — 3548, 3563, 3570, 3576, 3601, 3603, 3610, 3701, 3863, 3995, 4247, 4256, 4337, 4925, 5351, 5354, 5747, 6247, 6396. See Doctrine (4), Truth. Good from the Lord, or divine good, cannot flow in unless there be truths, for truths are vessels of good, and without them there is no recipiency or state corresponding to good, 3387. Truths or appearances of truth are imparted to man in order that divine good may form his intellectual part thereby, and thus the man himself ; when they are not received there can be no rational or human good, consequently no spiritual life, 3387. Appearances of truth are also given to man and acknowledged for truths when genuine truths cannot be received, because the divine good can still flow into them, ill. 3387, 3388. To know good and truth is not to have them, for that is to be affected with them from the heart, not from the loves of self and the world, 3402. It is of the divine pro- vidence that no one is admitted into the acknowledgment and affection of good and truth further than he can remain in them, on account of the peril of eternal damnation, 3402. So far as man comes into what is evil and false, good and truth are removed into the interiors, which is occasioned by the angels receding from him and evil spirits drawing nigh, 3402. If good and truth be formed in the natural man, which is done by the influx of the rational, it is an image of heaven, but if evil and the false, it is an image of hell, 3513. The genera and species of good and truth are innumerable, even when they appear and are ex- pressed as one, 3519, 3677; see below, 4005, 4149. Every truth also has its own good, and every good its own truth, and these must be con- joined in order to their being anything, 3540, 3599, ilL by the will and understanding, 9637, and by esse and existere, &c., 10,555. The truth of good is produced in the natural man by the influx of the ra- tional, which is both immediate and mediate, 3575. The common good produced from the influx of the rational man disposes the truths of the natural into celestial order, and thereby produces another good, by which again other truths are formed, and so on successively, 3579, ///. 4005; see below, 4302, 5912, 9258. Good and truths consociate to form a society, and at length a state (civitas), and this from the form of heaven, and influx thence, 3584, 3612. Truth has no life from it- self but from good, for it is nothing but a vessel recipient of good, ill. 3607, and citations. When truth is deprived of self-derived life, it is then conjoined with good, and by good receives essential life, that is to say, Hfeirom the Lord, 3607. Truth is first deprived of its self-derived life when good begins to be regarded in the first place, and thus to ac- quire the dominion, 3607. The state of the life when truth is in the first place compared with its state when good is ; that the former rcsem- GOO 279 bles the sordid life of brute animals, and that the latter is replete with wisdom and ineffable felicity, 3610. There is a continual endeavour on the part of good with the regenerate to restore the state according to the order of heaven, that truth may be subordinate, ill. 3610. When this order exists in the mind innumerable things are known and per- ceived concerning good and truth, and this more and more distinctly ; at length the proximities of good and truth, such as they are in heaven, and heaven itself in form become manifest, 3612. All truth of what- soever quality it is, contains in itself good, for it is from good that it is called truth, 3659. Interior good is like a seed capable of producing itself in good ground ; exterior good and truth are like ground, ill. 3671, fully ill. 9258. Goods and truths are distinguished according to degrees, and the superior flow into the inferior, and thus manifest themselves as in their images, ill. 3691 ; see below, 4154. The lowest goods and truths, from which those begin who are regenerated, exem- plified ; that they are such as admit of interior truths being received, and have a tendency to extirpate falses, 3701. Good and truth are like a father and mother, and their state with man like that of a marriage ; hence all inferior goods and truths are as sons and daughters, etc., ac- cording to consanguinities and affinities in every degree, fully ill. and sh. 3703. All consanguinity and society in heaven is derived from good, the affinities of which take the place of natural relationship, 3815. All things in heaven and man, and in the whole universe, which are ac- cording to order, have reference to good and truth ; hence, divine good and divine truth are predicated of the Lord, from whom they actually proceed as the sun of heaven, thus as heat and light, ill. and sh. 3704, 4696, compare ^(i(j7. Good is the first essential of order ; truth the last, 3726. Without the marriage of good and truth, nothing can be produced, for all production and eficct is derived therefrom, 3793. Good varies in all and every one by truths, and from truths it receives its quality, 3804, ill. 3986. Notwithstanding these indefinite varieties, all who are in good and truth constitute one universal heaven, for they are harmonized by love and charity from the Lord, which eficcts spiri- tual conjunction, 3986. Truths are conjoined with good when they are learned and acknowledged for the sake of uses of life, 3824. It is only by the affection of truth from good, or the affection of good, that truths can be conjoined ; and so far as man is in these afi'ections inte- rior truths are conjoined to him, because truths are the vessels of good, 3834. Good is insinuated by the Lord through the external man, and it adopts to itself the truths which are introduced by the external ; hence all the life and soul is in good, ill. 3863. There is no conjunc- tion of truth with good without a life according to the truth, for other- wise there is no appropriation, ill. 3865. Good appropriated by its conjunction with truth is the only good that is spiritual and that re- mains to eternity, 395 1 ; see below, 9404. The conjunction of good and truth, or the heavenly marriage, is not effected between good and truth of one and the same degree, but between a superior and inferior, thus, between the good of the external man and the truth of the internal, 3952; see below, 8516. The church is formed from the affection of truth in what is good, and from the affection of good proceeding to truth, but not from either separate, 3963. Good and truth not genuine serve as the means of introducing genuine good and truth, 3972 — 3974, 280 GOO GOO 281 ^11 3986, 4063, 4145. After such introductioD, good and truth not genuine are relinquished, 3975, 3982, 4063, 4145, compare 3665, 3690 : see 35/0 (15). Good cunnot be fructified, and truth cannot be multiplied until the external man is conjoined with the internal, ill, 3987; afterwards, they are infinitely fructified and multiplied, 3186, 5355, 6091; see below, 5345. When genuine goods and truths are introduced into the natural man, they are in the midst of evils and falses; how wonderfully they are disposed from the centre, so that evils and falses are rejected to the circumference, exemplified, 3993, 3995, 4005 ; see below, 6724. The truths comprehended in one good are in- numerable, for they are produced in continual series, truths from goods and goods from truths, 4005. There are also goods mixed with evils, and truths mixed with falses ; and the ways in which they are tempered exceed myriads of myriads, 4005. All the genera of good and truth, and every specific difi^erence, correspond with angelic societies, which are qualified by them ; with such societies therefore they who are in good and truth are interiorly associated, 4067, 4263 ; see below, 4151, 4154, 4302. The influx of good from the Lord proceeds by the me- dium of angels, and is received in the knowledges of truth by the natu- ral man ; how it proceeds to conjoin truths with itself, ill. 4096, 4097, 4099. Good considered in itself is one, but it is made various by truths ; comparatively, as the life flowing in from the soul is varied in the body by the variously composed fibres, 4149. The truth of one can never subsist in the good of another, if transferred therefore it passes into the form of him who receives it, and puts on another appear- ance, 4149. No good and truth with any one is his own except appa- rently, for it all flows in from the Lord, both immediately and through the medium of angelic societies, ill, 4151. Goods and truths are in three distinct degrees, which are external and internal according to so many heavens, for they correspond together, 4154, 9891. Their cor- respondence more particularly described, 9670, 9673, 9680, 9682, 9741, 9812, 9873, 10,270, compare 9473, 9683. The truth that enters with any afi^ection is reproduced whenever that affection recurs, and the good or affection is reproduced when the truth recurs, for they cohere together, 4205, ill. 4301. Good flows in according to its recep- tion by truths, and as truths receive good they also describe the limits of its influx, 4205. The influx of good is continual, but it cannot apply itself or be appropriated except by the acquisition of truths as its vessels, 4247. Before truths are acquired it manifests itself as the affection of truth, which is nothing but the always flowing conatus of divine good, 4247. Before good and truth are conjoined, the former is as lord and master, and the latter as a servant ; after conjunction they are as brethren, 4267, 5510. Truths are insinuated and conjoined to good by affection or delight, and they are necessary to make it good, ill. 4301. They cannot be conjoined to good from the Lord until they are disposed into the order of heaven, and they assume this order when they are filled into the goods of charity, and these again into the goods of love, ill. 4302 ; see below, 5704. The conjunction of good and truth takes place when good flowing in from the Lord meets with the good of truth, which is truth in the will, 4337, 4353, 4904, 4984, com- pare 7056. The conjunction commences with the common affections and the truths belonging to them, and proceeds to the less common, or ^TV more and more particular affections, ill, 4345, compare 4353. Before truths can be received and conjoined to good they must be freely re- ceived and confirmed ; for there is i^ influx from heaven beyond the means that exist with man, and no conjunction of good and truth except in liberty, 4364, and citations^ Truths cannot be accepted and there- fore cannot be conjoined to good, except with those who are in the good of charity and love, ill. 4368. The affection of truth appears to derive its origin from truth, but it is from good flowing into truth, 4368, ill. 4373. When good conjoins itself to truth it is good that acts, and truth that suffers itself to be acted upon ; the apparent reaction of truth is also from good conjoined thereto, 4380. It is by truth that good acts or exercises its power, 4757; see below, 5928. Good flowing in by the internal man brings along with it truths, hence called the truths of good, 4385, compare 3677, 3995. There is a parallelism or correspon- dence between the Lord and good with man, but not with truth, ill. 4493, and citations. Truths derived from good are called the forms of good, because they are goods formed, ill, 4574, ill. 4926. A doctrine may be true in itself, yet it is not true with him who receives it without good ; and contrariwise, falses are accepted as truths if there be good in them, and more especially if it be the good of innocence, 4736. Good is as solid food, and truth as water or drink, by which it is resolved and distributed to the body, 4976, compare 10,040. Good does not appro- priate truth to itself, but the good of truth, or use ; truths that enter alone are either rejected altogether, or retained for the future iiUroduc- tion of goods, 4984. The influx of good from the Lord is received in the voluntary part, and the influx of truth in the intellectual part, but the one cannot be received without the other, 5147. The intellectual state may be compared to forms which are continually varied, and the voluntary state to the harmony of such variation ; hence, truths are the variations, and goods the delights yielded by them, 5147, 5807; see below, 9206. Truths are adjoined to good when man finds his delight in doing good to others for the sake of good and truth ; and when so adjoined they are preserved and concealed in the interiors, to be pro- duced as spiritual nourishment, especially in times of temptation, 5340, 5342, 5733, 5820. See Remains. If truths be multiplied by their association with anything but good, they are not truths, and instead of the heavenly marriage there is adultery, ill. 5345, 6090. There is no end to the multiplication of truth from good after the heavenly mar- riage, because the infinite is in them, 5355. The multiplication of truth precedes, and the fructification of good follows ; hence, there are states of spiritual indigence or hunger, and hence the conjunction of truth and good is according to desire, ill. 5365. Truths are first manifested be- cause they are nearer the sensual things of the body, but good is more in the spirit, and in the light of heaven, ill. 5827, compare 8648. Truths cannot be conjoined, and form a brotherhood, without good; for if good be not present, the falses of evil enter and separate them, 5440. There is no conjunction of truths without good, because there is no end to which they all alike tend, and no origin from which they all alike come ; thus, they are not pervaded and ruled by any universal princi- ple, 5440. By the fructification of truth from good with those who become regenerate is meant their continually increasing power of per- ceiving truths, and they enjoy this faculty because the influx of good 282 GOO \ brings along with it the wisdom of the angelic society with which it com- municates, 5527. They who have lived in the good of charity come into all the wisdom of that good^ter the life of the body, 5859, 7474. Good arranges truths into its own likeness, thus into the form of hea- ven, for there is a living force in it, because the Lord himself; thus the whole application of truth is under good, ///. 5704, briefly, 5709 ; see below, 8370. They who vindicate as their own the good and truth proceeding from the Lord cannot be in heaven, and all do so before they are regenerated, ill. 5747, 5759. See Thief. When good is willed it is insinuated into the understanding, and assumes a quality and form there which is called truth ; between good and truth in this case the conjunction is close and strong, like that of a father and son, 5807, ill- 5835. Good multiplies truths about itself, and makes every truth as a little star sparkling from its fire in the midst ; by one truth also it pro- duces another and another in succession, 5912. The reciprocality and reaction of truth is from good, for truths with good in them are like blood-vessels containing blood, and without good they are empty and lifeless, 5928, ill. by this and other comparisons, 8530, 9154, 10,555 ; and by the conjunction of the heart with the lungs, 9495. There is a nisus or endeavour in all things, from inmost to outmost, to act the part of a cause in its effect, or to produce itself in something ulterior as a body ; thus, good seeks to live in truths, truths in scientifics, scientifics in the sensual things of the body, and these in the world, 6077. Di- vine truth given to man is in the midst, and around it is good mixed with evils and falses ; how the good is protected by the operation of the internal into every individual part of the external, 6724. The good of every one is enriched and qualified by the affections of good and truth that are in affinity with it ; truths also become goods when they are lived, 6917, ill. 7236, compare 7770, 7834, 7835, 7836 end. Good flows softly and freely with those in whom truths are properly arranged ; but when not so, the rigidity and inflexibility of truth is manifest, ill. 7068, compare 8370. All goods and truths flow in from the Lord, but when man bends them to himself they become the goods of the loves of self and the world; they are said to be from the Lord with him when they are applied to the welfare of one's neighbour, or country, or the Lord's kingdom, 7564. The truths by which good is qualified in con- sequence of its influx therein are rarely genuine, but are appearances of truths and falses, yet not such as are opposite to truths ; they are ac- cepted as truths if received from ignorance, providing there be innocence and a good end in them, 7887, ill. 7975, and citations. When there is no good the affection of truth is undelightful, and where there is good there is delight in truth, for good and truth mutually aflect one another and proceed from one another, 8349, 8352, 8356. When truths are arranged they make with good one body in the image of a man, ill. 8370. When truth is presented to view in the other life, it appears like a discrete quantity of minute angular forms, and also as white ; when good appears it is like a continued quantity, round in form, and as to colour, blue, yellow, and red ; their conjunction ill. by the appear- ance of the manna, 8458. See Colours, Precious Stones. It is good that adopts truth when they are conjoined, because truth is sub- jacent, and influx is from what is superior to what is beneath, not from what is inferior to what is above, ill. 8516, compare 8778. He who .^i^« GOO 283 knows what the formation of good from truths is, knows the veriest ar- cana of heaven, for he knows the secrets of man's creation anew and the formation of heaven within him, 8772. Truths received into the exte- rior memory are subject to the intuition of the internal man, who elects therefrom such as concord with good flowing in from the Lord ; such elected truths are called spiritual, and the good to which they are con- joined is called spiritual, because it is formed by them, 9034, compare 3161, 3570. This election of truth and its association with good in the heavenly marriage is from their mutual love for one another, which is derived from the angels of the societies corresponding thereto in heaven, 9079. It is with good as with all delight and sweetness and consent and harmony, which are not such from themselves but from what is con- tained in them ; thus good is made good by truths, and he is not in good who does not desire truths, ill. and sh. 9206, 9207. Good im- planted from the Lord by truths is like the prolific principle secreted in the interior of fruits by their fibres ; when good is thus formed, it pro- duces itself by truths with a continual conatus to a new good, compara- tively as the fibres afterwards carry juice from the seed, and as the seed produces a new tree, which again bears fruit, &c., ill. 9258. Good is first received in infancy, and is increased in the succeeding age accord- ing to the life of obedience and innocence ; this is the beginning of the new will, which is afterwards perfected by the implantation of truth, such implantation of truth forming the commencement of the new understanding, ill. 9296, 9297. Good implanted by truth is the good of truth, which is spiritual ; good not implanted by truths is the good of mutual love, which is celestial, 9404. Good must be all in all in truths of whatever degree, and it must be one good, in order that they may have being and consistence together, 9550, 9568, 9574, 9667. The same illustrated by the belt as a common bond, 9828, and by the precious stones filled into the gold of the breastplate, 9863, 9874. See Gold. Good cannot appear in light except it be formed by truth, as the will cannot appear except by the understanding ; hence truth mani- fests that it is genuine by its purity and clearness, 9781. There is the same difficulty in distinguishing between good and truth as between willing and thinking, for good is of the will and truth of the under- standing, ill. 9995. The marriage of good and truth is in the inter- nal man, with the spiritual in the intellectual part, and with the celes- tial in the voluntary part, 9995. See Marriage. All good and truth flowing in from heaven amongst the evil is changed into evil and the false in its descent ; on the contrary, when anything evil and false flows in amongst the good, it appears under another form according to their genius and state of goodness, 3607, 3743. They who are not in good and truth, however intelligent they may appear in other things, cannot acknowledge the interior truths of the Word, 3793. They who are receptive, on the contrary, have divine good and divine truth freely revealed to them by the Lord, ill. 10,577 ; see above 2531, 3387, 4096, 7564. 22. Good in heaven. The arrangement of goods and truths, and the arrangement of heaven, are the same, for they correspond together; thus, a regenerate man is a little heaven, and heaven is a grand man, 1900, 1928, 3584, 3612, 4154, 4302, 5704, 5709, 8370, 9473, 9670, 9673, 9680, 9682, 9683, 9741, 9812, 9873, 9891, 10,270. Goods and 284 GOO GOO 285 1 truths are so real that a spirit is uothing but the goads and truths that the maa had acquired in the world, and yet it appears in human form, ill. 10,298. It is good that forms the faces of the angels, and tlieir indefinite varieties are derived from the truths in which goods form themselves, ill. 7236. It is goodness and charity itself which is effigied in their faces, and their fairness exceeds all human imagination, 553. In like manner all beauty in the human countenance is derived from the good of innocence flowing in ; and hence the beautiful or good in form denotes what is easy of reception, 3080, 3388. All the beatitude and felicity that man can enjoy in heaven is also from good in truth, not from truth only, 2434. Truth itself with the angels, thus, all their wisdom and intelligence are from mutual love and the love of the Lord, for hereby they are in the very principles and springs of all things, thus in ends and causes, 2572. It is according to good, or the genius of the inhabitants for good, that the heavens are arranged and distinguished, and this arrangement extends to the most minute differences, 7833, ill, 7836. The arrangement itself is eflFected by divine good, 5704. Divine good itself is far above heaven, its proceeding in heaven is called celes- tial divine good, 8758; see below, 9810, 9995. The celestial kingdom of heaven is where divine good from which divine truth proceeds is principal ; the spiritual kingdom, where divine truth which contains divine good is principal, ill. and sh., 5313; ill. and sh. 5922. The two goods that are in the inmost heaven are the good of love to the Lord and the good of mutual love, and beneath these are the good of charity towards the neighbour and the good of faith, 9468, 9680, 9683, 9780. The Lord is present in heaven by influx, and they are its nearest reci- pients who are in the good of love, more remotely, they who are in the good of charity, and more remotely still, they who are in the good of faith or good of life, 9682. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord and received in the voluntary part is called celestial good, received in the intellectual part spiritual good, 9810, 9811; ill. 9995. Celestial divine good, which makes the third or inmost heaven, is the good of love to the Lord ; spiritual divine good, which makes the second or middle heaven, is the good of charity towards the neighbour ; and natural divine good, which makes the first or ultimate heaven, is the good of faith and obedience, i7/. 9812, 10,005, 10,017, 10,270; variously i7/. 4279, 4286, 4938, 4939, 9992, 10,068. All truths and goods that are in heaven are from divine truth proceeding from the divine good of the Lord, thus, divine truth received by the angels of the celestial kingdom is called celestial good, and received by the angels of the spiritual king- dom, spiritual good, ill. 9995. The divine proceeding is called truth, because it appears as light to the angels, but the heat is within the light, which makes it good, 9995. The divine good of the Lord is one only good, but it is distinguished into celestial and spiritual from reception, comparatively as heat and light from the sun are varied by the different regions of the earth, &c., 10,261. Influx from the Lord's divine human into the good of the inmost heaven is received imme- diately ; into the good of the middle heaven it is both immediate and by the mediation of celestial good ; and into the good of the ultimate hea- ven it is both immediate and mediate, 10,270. See Influx. The only good that reigns universally in heaven is the good of the Lord's merit and justice, thus the divine human, briefly sh., 9486, briefly, 9635, ill. And sh.t 9715, compare 9310. In heaven there is a com- munion of all goods ; the peace, the intelligence, the wisdom, and the felicity of all are communicated to every one ; hence, their so great hap- piness, 10,723. ' Heaven is also conjoined with the world by the good of love and charity prevailing with those who receive the Word, 9817. All that the Word treats of throughout is the good that constitutes the heavenly life; thus the Word in its whole complex is the doctrine of good, 9780. The extension of heaven is to the limit of every one's good, 8794. See Heaven. 23. Divine Good and Good predicated of the Lord. Divine truth is the order itself of the universe, and divine good is the essential itself of order, 1728, 2258. The Lord is good itself and truth itself, 201 1 ; see below, 3704. All good and truth are from the Lord alone, and the universal heaven is filled with the sphere of good proceeding from him, 1614. There could be no proceeding of divine good except by the medium of the diviue human, 2016. All the power of the Lord in the government of the universe is exercised by good and truth, thus his universal dominion is the dominion of love and mercy, 1749, 1755. The union of divine good and divine truth in the Lord is the cause of all existence and subsistence ; hence, a similar marriage prevails uni- versally in all kingdoms; and the state of marriage abounds in com- parisons with the conception and growth of things, 2173, 2184, 2508, 2588, 2618, 3703, 3704. When good is treated of, the Lord is called Jehovah, and where the subject is truth, God, 2769. See Name. The divine marriage is not between divine good and divine truth in the divine human, but between the good of the divine human and the divine itself; thus, between the Father and the Son, 3952. The divine good of the Lord, which is called the Father, is good itself, and the divine itself; the divine truth, which is called the Son, is the divine good appearing in heaven before the angels, 3704, 3712. The Lord in his essence is nothing but divine good, both as to the divine itself and the divine human; thus, the divine truth is not in divine good, but from it, 3704, ill. 5704, 8724. The Lord, as divine good, is repre- sented by the sun, for he is seen as a sun in the other life; and as diviue truth by light, for the light proceeding from him as a sun fills the whole heaven, 1053, 1521, 1529— -1531, 2441, 2495, 2776, 3138, 3195, 3223, 3339, 3636, 3641, 3712, end, 3862, 3969, 4321, 4696, 5097, 5377, 5704, 9682, 9684, and citations. The Lord appears as a sun to those who are in his celestial kingdom, thus as to celestial good; and as a moon to those who are in his spiritual kingdom, thus as to spiritual good, ill. 9682, and citations. The divine love itself is as the sun, or its pure fire, which represents the Lord, divine good is as its proceeding heat, and divine truth as its light, ill. 5704. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord does nothing of itself but from the divine good, for divine good is the esse, and divine truth the existere, 8724, ill. 9995. Good proceeding from the Lord as a sun is the sphere which surrounds and contains all in heaven, comparatively as air and ether contain the body ; variously ill. 9490—9492, 9498, 9499, 9502, 9534, 9874. When the Lord was in the world he was the divine truth, and then divine good in him was the Father; but by glorification, he made the human in itself divine, and thus made himself divine good as to the 286 GOS GOV 287 human likewise, 4973, 8127, 8281, 8724, 8861, 9199, ill. 10,125. Since the human was made divine good, divine truth proceeds there- from, and this is meant by the spirit of truth or holy spirit, 4973, 8127, 8861, 9199, particularly 9807, 9818. Divine good was the esse of the Lord's life while he was in the world, for it was the same in him as the soul, which is derived from the Father in man, ill. 9954. It was from the divine good that was in him by virtue of his conception from Jehovah, that the Lord made his human divine truth, and this while he was in the world; when he left the world, he fully united divine truth to divine good, 9199 and citations, 10,367, 10,730. The union of the human essence of the Lord with the divine, is like the union of truth with good; and the union of the divine with the human, like the union of good with truth ; thus, good united itself to truth and truth to good reciprocally, 2011. In the glorification of his natural man, the Lord proceeded from truth to the good of truth, and finally to good, 4538. The good that was with the Lord from conception and nativity was clothed over by what he assumed from the mother, which was not good but evil ; this assumed humanity was made new by good acquired therein, and this acquired good was what the Lord conjoined to divine good, briefly ill. 4641. The Lord made his human divine by good flowing through heaven from the divine itself, and this good was the divine human before the Lord's advent, 6720. The Lord as to divine good itself and divine truth itself conjoined to divine good, was represented by Abraham and Sarah, 1468, 1901, 1904, 2003, 2065, 2172, 2173, 2189, 2198, 2204, 2507, 2588, 2618, 2904, 3077, 7022; as to divine good spiritual, and divine truth conjoined thereto, by Abraham and Keturah, 3236 ; as to the same in the divine human or rational man, by Isaac and Rebecca, 3012, 3013, 3030, 3077, 3102, 3110, 3116, 3141, 3161, 3203, 3599, 3387; and as to the same in the natural man, by Esau and Jacob, 3232, 3288, 3297, 3300, 3306, 3518, 3599, 3659, 4234, 4641. See Lord. When the Lord is named in the "Word the divine good of the divine human is signified, thus the Lord as to divine good, 4973, 9167, 9 1 94, and citations. Good is from the Lord, the Lord is in good, and he is good itself, 6818, 8480. The Lord is continually flowing in with good, and by the influx of good he is present with man and gives the apperception of truth, 5127, 5355, 5470, 6564, 10,153. The omniscience of the Lord is from his universal presence in good; it is a fallacy to imagine that he is in truth separate from good, 2572. What- ever is done from the will or good pleasure of the Lord, is from the laws of order as to good; also, many things that are done from indul- gence, and some that are done from permission, 2447, 9940. The Lord judges all from good, for he is goodness itself and mercy itself; but the evil separate themselves from good, and become subject to the laws of order from truth alone, 2258, 2335, 2447, 2769. See Evil. GOPHER- WOOD [ligna Gopher], or woods of Gopher denote concupiscences, from the sulphur with which it abounds in common with the fir, and several others of the same species, 643. The ark made of Gopher-wood signifies the man of the Noatic church, who passed through the temptations denoted by the flood, 640 — 643. See Flood. GOSHEN, the best of the land of Egypt, denotes the inmost of the natural mind, 5910, 6028, 6051. After the location of the Israelites there, it denotes the spiritual church, which is formed by truths and goods collated in the interiors, 6649, 7443. In the representation of the spiritual church infested by the falses of evil, it denotes the lower earth, and the other parts of Egypt the neighbouring hells, 7240, 7826. See Egypt. GOSPEL, the \evangelium\ denotes annunciation concerning the Lord, concerning his coming, and concerning those things which are from him; thus, that the whole Word is the gospel, 9925. To preach the gospel is to worship the Lord from love and charity, 795. GO UP, to [ascendere]. See to Ascend. GOVERNMENT [regimen]. Societies have been transformed into empires and kingdoms by the loves of self and the world ruling, 7364. In the most ancient or golden age, dominion over others from the love of self, and heaping up of riches beyond necessity from the love of the world were unknown ; at that time the people dwelt in tents and enjoyed both internal and external peace, 10,160. Governments under various forms were commenced, when the love of self and the world began to prevail, by houses and families uniting together for mutual protection ; so long as they lived in separate houses, and families, there was no dominion but that of the love of the neighbour, 10,814. At this day, order cannot be preserved, and the human race would perish, unless there was a government to enforce the laws, with the power of reward and punishment; such is the hereditary disposition of every one to possess himself of the goods of others and dominate over them, 10,789 — 10,791. For the same reason, order and subordination are necessary among those who govern, lest any one either for his own gratification, or from ignorance, should permit some evil to be done against order, and so destroy it, 10,792. In the ancient church, government was not divided, but the office of king and priest were united in one person, ill, 6148. Such is the love of self and its per- suasions, that it aspires to dominion over the universe, and even the Lord himself, 1594, 1675; from experience, 4227, 5719. See Do- minion, King, Priest. The Lord governs the universe by the holy proceeding from his divine humanity, which fills the whole heaven, 2288. The Lord governs man either by genuine good and truth which form the interior conscience, by the sense of justice and equity, which form the exterior conscience, or by self-interest and the external bonds belonging thereto, 4167. The government of the Lord is most universal and most par- ticular, and angels are called his ministers, because their ministrations are necessary to their own felicity, 6482. See Providence. In heaven every one is desirous of ministering to others, and hence the form of government there is that of mutual love, 5732. Subordination in heaven is according to intelligence and wisdom, for the love of good makes every one defer to those who are more in the wisdom of good and intelligence of truth than themselves, 7773. Subordination in hell is that of empire, resembling a confederation of enemies, or a band of robbers, and is maintained by the most cruel punishments, 7773, 8232. Evil spirits imagine they can contribute to the government of the universe, but their proffered services are not accepted because the whole government of the Lord is from good, 1749. The government of * ia&. 288 GR A G RI 289 i w the Lord represented by a softly flowing sound, like an angelic choir, in the midst of a tumultuous crowd of spirits, and how it formed the whole into order gradually and without violence, 5396. GOVERNOR [pra/ectus]. Princes denote primary truths; go- vernors, the common truths in which and under which are particulars, 5290. To appoint a governor is to arrange or dispose the natural mind into order, which is done by influx, 5288, 5290. The governors or officers of the people of Israel were distinct from the princes, and are called moderators, 7111. See Moderators, Government. GRACE, OR Favour [gratia]. The mercy and grace of the Lord both involve the salvation of the whole human race, that being their end, 598. Mercy and grace are distinguished according to the difference of re- ception; thus, the celestial acknowledge and implore the mercy of the Lord; the spiritual, his grace, 598, ill, 981, 2412, 2423, 3118, 5929. The mercy and grace of the Lord are denoted by clemency, 2412. Grace is predicated of humiliation from the afi^ection of truth; mercy of humiliation from the afi*ection of good, 2423. The humiliation from which grace is asked is less in proportion as the affection for truth is less, 2423. To find grace or favour in the eyes of another, denotes the propensity of the one for the other ; thus, similarity of state, 3980, 4455; also, the desire of the will, 6178; and, when predicated of inferiors, humiliation, 6162. It was the customary formula of insinua- tion with a view to being well received, 6512. Hence, grace is predi- cated of the intellectual faculty, and denotes that the understanding has accepted that which finds grace, 4975. They who are more remote from what is internal speak of grace, not of mercy ; and that this is from the love of self, 5929. The form of benediction, "God be gracious to thee," denotes the divine presence, 5689. To give grace, predicated of temptations, is to afford consolation, and elevate with hope, 5043. Generally, to do grace or favour, when predicated of the Lord, denotes to gift with spiritual good; to do mercy, to gift with celestial good ; both according to reception, ill. and sh. 10,577, 10,617. Grace or favour from those who are in evils and falses, is fear, ill. 6914. See Mercy. GRACES, the [charites]. See Charities. GRAIN [ffranuni]. Wheat, barley, and seeds generally, signify interior goods and truths, 7112. The kingdom of God compared to grain sown, &c., 5212. GRAND MAN [inaximus homo]. See Man. GRAPE \uva]. See Vine. GRASS {j^ratnen]. The green herb is the food of the natural man, 59. To eat grass is to live as a wild beast, 274; also to appropriate the scientific only, 939 1 ; by which come falses, 9807. Certain spirits employed in mowing grass described, 1111. See to Cut. Grasses or herbs are scientifics, and the same is signified by the sedge or larger grass \ulva]j which grows by the side of rivers, 5201. To feed on it is to be instructed in scientifics, and by scientifics concerning truth and good, sh. 5201. Grass for reeds and bulrushes, signifies scientific truth for such things as are void of truth, 6723. Reeds and weeds sig- nify vile and false scientifics, 6726. Grasses and herbs denote the lowest and most common scientifics, 7112, 7644. Grass burnt up denotes that the scientifics of truth have perished, 7553. Its viridity 1*1 denotes the sensitive or ultimate apprehension of truth, 7691. Grass and the green thing signify true scientifics by which comes the truth of faith, 9936. See Herb. GRASSHOPPER. See Locust. GRATE, the [cribrum\ of net-work round the altar denotes the sensual principle, which as it were sifts and separates the things that flow into the will and understanding, ill, by the reticular surfaces of the body, 9726, 9731. When scientifics are seen in the other life, they appear like needlework or lace, 5954. See Entwisting. GRATIS. The sacks of his brethren filled with corn by Joseph, and their silver returned, denotes the influx of the internal man into the receptacles or scientifics of the external ; and truths filled into them without any aid from the proprium, 5486 — 5489. Every man's bundle of silver in his sack denotes the arrangement of truths given gratis, 5530. Their returning to Joseph with the silver thus given them, denotes the submission of the external man to the internal, procured by the gratuitous influx of truth, 5624, 5659, bl^^y blhl. The silver first given to Joseph denotes the appearance at fijst that the truths of faith are procured by man, 5664|. The Hebrew servant to go out free for nothing, denotes the confirmation of truth with those in whom good and truth cannot be conjoined, 8973, 8976. The woman-servant to go away gratis without silver, in case of not pleasing the master, denotes the affection of truth derived from merely natural delight alienated, 8992, 9005. GRAVE. See Sepulchre, to Bury. GRAVEN THING \smljitile]. See Engraving, Idolatry. GREAT \magnum]y is predicated of good, numerous of truth, 2227, 6172. The greatest in heaven are they who are in the greatest obedience and humiliation, or in the greatest affection of serving others, for such are in the inmost heaven, 3417, 5164. To will to be greatest is not heaven, but hell, 450, 451. In heaven the least is greatest, because most happy, 452. No one can be admitted into heaven who has an idea of eminence and greatness, 1419, ill. from experience, 952, 953. The Lord did not engage in combat with a view to becoming greatest, but for the salvation of the human race, 1812. The least being greatest in heaven, denotes that there is nothing of power and wisdom from self, 4459. Pharaoh not greater in the house than Joseph, denotes that natural good is only prior in time, not in state, 4994. Manasseh becoming great, but Ephraim greater than he, denotes the increase of truth from good, which is the celestial state; but the greater increase of good from truth, which is the spiritual state, ill. 6295, 6296. See Tribes. Moses a great man in Egypt, denotes the respect of the evil for the divine law from fear, 7772. See Moses. Jehovah greater than all gods, denotes the Lord who is the only God, 8677 and citations. Great in goodness and truth, denotes that good itself and truth itself proceed from him, 10,619. GREEN \yiridi8]. See Colours, Grass. GRIEF, OR Pain [dolor], denotes the anxiety of the heart or will; and, with a difference in the expression, the sadness of the spirit or understanding, 5887, 5888. Griefs or afflictions denote the anxieties and torment of mind into which the good come when they are immersed in falses, 6853. Grief or bitterness of the spirit is predicated of the u 11 m I (I 290 GRO G RO 291 anxieties endured when tmths are first implanted in good, 3471. The woman condemned to bring forth sons in sorrow, denotes the anxieties and combats attending the production of truths, 261 — 263, 8313. To eat in grief, or in great sorrow, of the ground, denotes the miserable state of those who are in externals, 270. Anxiety, sadness, misfortune, sickness, &c., from corporeal and natural causes, are very different from spiritual temptations, and temptations at this day are but little known, 762. Temptations or the internal pains called remorse of conscience are to the end that the external man may be rendered entirely subservient to the internal, 857, ill. 5127. When anything evil and false is insinuated among the goods and truths of the regenerate, they come into tempta- tion, and hence grief, more and more acute according as their percep- tion is more interior, 1668. The grief of the Lord when any state of the assumed humanity was changed or glorified, denotes his love for the whole human race, and unwillingness that any should be separated, compare 2250, 2660, 2664. See Temptation. No weeping and crying denotes that there is nothing evil and nothing false, 2240. See to Weep. As to the sadness and pains of the body : see Disease. GRIND, to [molere], signifies to eliminate doctrinals, sh, 4335. Such as do so without regard to use are seen grinding in the world of spirits, 4335. To grind, in a good sense, is to elect truths from the Word, and explain them as a means to good ; and in the opposite sense as a means to evil, 9995, compare 7780. To take a mill and grind flour is to fashion doctrine from such things as minister to the end, 9960. To grind and to bruise denote reduction to use ; the former being predicated of wheat, bariey, and fitches; the latter of oil, frankin- cence, spices, etc., ill. 10,303. When grinding is predicated of good, as signified by wheat and barley, it denotes its reduction into truths, and thus into series applicable to use, 10,303. See Series. To grind or crush to powder is to form the false from infernal delight, 10,464. See Mill, Flour, Farina. GRINDER [molensj. See to Grind, Mill. GROUND [humus], denotes the external man after regeneration, because celestial seeds are then implanted in him, prior to this he is denoted by earth, 90, 268, 872, 990. Hence ground denotes the church, earth or land where there is no church, 566. The faces of the ground denotes wherever there is instruction in the truths of faith, 567, 620 ; consequently, wherever the church is, 567, 662, 1066, 2571. The faces of the ground denotes the affections and memory of the external man, ill. 990. In the opposite sense ground denotes a schism or heresy, 377 ; to till or cultivate the ground, the becoming merely cor- poreal, 305, 345 ; and to be cast out from the faces of the ground, the being separated from every truth of the church, 386. In the most ancient church ground denoted the voluntary part, in which goods were planted, from which again perception and faith sprung up; in the spiritual church it denotes the intellectual part, into which truths are inseminated as the means of good, ill. 895. Earth as the continent of the ground denotes love as the continent of faith; and ground as the continent of a field, faith as the soil in which knowledges are implanted, 620, 636, 1066, 1068. The earth, in a good sense, denotes the Lord's kingdom in heaven and earth, thus the church ; ground and field the same, but ia a sense more and more strict, ill. and sh. 3310, 3766, citations, 6767, 7571. The four kinds of ground in the parable of the sower, denote so many states in respect to the truths of faith ; good ground, the good of charity, 3310. Such is the ground or state denoted by a field in the Word, 3500, 4073, 4397, 9230. See Field. The earth denotes man himself, ground the church with man, thus faith, 662, ill. 10,570. The external man, and the body itself, is as earth or ground ; the pleasures of the body, as reptiles and creeping things, 909, compare 990. The good of life or afifection is the very ground in which truths are inseminated, and their reception and growth is according to the quality of the good, ill. 3324, 3066, 2343, 2590. The seeds of good and truth are derived from the interior man, but not without exterior good and truth, for the natural mind is where the ground is, 3671. Ground denotes the doctrine of good and truth in the natural man, ill. 3712. Ground denotes man as receptive of truth or the faith of charity; thus the mind of man, ill. 6135 — 6137, 6141, 6154. The reception of truth in good, as its proper ground, is the means of its conjunction with the Divine proceeding in man, ill. 7056. An altar of the faces of the ground (altar of earth) denotes worship from good; an altar of stones, worship from truth, ill. 8935. It is from this signification of ground that the institution of the most ancient church is signified by the creation in Genesis, by Paradise, and by Adam, 10,545. In general, ground denotes the church from the reception of seeds, and their birth and produce, like a field, ill, and sh. 10,570, compare 6125, 3145. Jehovah God forming man in the dust of the ground denotes the external man, which before was not man, made living, 94. The ground cursed for his sake denotes the state of the external man averted from the internal, 267 — 270. Cain, a tiller of the ground and making an offering of its fruits, the corporeal man and his works without charity, 345, 346. The voice of his brother's blood crying from the ground, the violence done to charity discovered, 373, 374. The ground hence- forth not yielding its increase, the fruitlessness of the heresy of faith alone discovered, 380. Every living substance that was upon the face of the ground destroyed by the flood, the cupidities derived from this source apparently extinguished, 807, 868. The waters dried up from the faces of the ground the apparent dissipation of falses, 868. The ground of the priests of Egypt not appropriated by Joseph, the faculty of receiving good always with the natural man, ill. 6 148. See Faculty. The place upon which Moses stood being holy ground, the state in which he then was receptive of the Divine proceeding, ill. 6845. The ground of Egypt (see the original) covered with the noxious flying thing, the whole natural mind occupied by the falses of malevolence, ill. 7442. The hailstones mingled with fire, the fire running along -upon the ground, the falses and lusts of evil therein, 7574, 7575, 7553. GROVE, a [lucus], denotes doctrine, according to the species of trees planted therein, sh. 2722, 4013, 10,644. The ancients celebrated holy worship on mountains and in groves; but this was prohibited when the places themselves were worshiped, and worship became idola- trous, 2722. They also made sculptured groves, which were idolatrous, 2722. In consequence of the ancient Wjorship on hills and in groves, and the observation of the heavenly bodies having become idolatrous, the use of representatives was restricted to those at Jerusalem, 4288. u 2 11 292 GUT H AB The ancient church celebrated worship in gardens and groves beneath certain trees according to their signification, for trees of all kinds sig- nify somewhat spiritual or celestial, ill. 4552. They were accustomed to set up statues, which were of stone, in their groves, because stones signify truth, and a grove heavenly wisdom and intelligence, ill. 10,643. Groves signify doctrinals, because trees signify perceptions and know- ledges of good and truth ; perceptions with those who are in the Lord's celestial kingdom, and knowledges with those who are in his spiritual kingdom, 10,644. As to the several significations of paradises, gar- dens, woods, and trees, see the citations same number : groves of the oak, in particular, signify perceptions from scientifics, 1443. Abram at the oak-grove of Moreh, the perception of the Lord while he was yet a boy, 1442, 1443. His dwelling in the oak-grove of Mamre, a state of interior perception, 1616. See Hebron. GROW, to [crescere], is predicated of increased perfection, accord- ing to the subject, 2646, 2707, 6749, 6755. Growing, going on in growing, and waxing great, denotes the increase of good and truth in their order, namely, from truth to good, and from good to truth, 3407. To grow by suckling denotes increase from good, 6749. To grow into a multitude predicated of truth, extension from the inmost, 6285. See ^o Dilate, Expanse, Extension, Fructify, Multiplication. GRUB [blatta']. See Insect. GUARD [custos]. See Custody. GUARD Xsatelles]. Pharaoh's officer, or prince of the guards, A^aa^^i} primary doctrines or principles of interpretation, 4790, 4966, ill. 5084. The armies of Egypt denote falses ; horses and horse- men, the intellectual perversities and reasonings pertaining thereto ; chariots, their doctrinals ; captains, their common principles holdine all iQ series and connection, 8138, 8146, 8148, 8150. See Egypt. GUILE. See Deceit. GUILT, Guilty [reatus, Tens']. Guilt is the blame and imputation ot sm, and of prevarication against good and truth ; thus, it is all sin that remains, 3400. He is guilty who is in blame, and thereby in im- putation, from having alienated the internal by the non-reception of good and truth, 5469. The ancient custom of punishing the whole tamily and house of a guilty person was derived from hell, where societies act as one man against good, and where, as a consequence, they are all punished if one is punished ; but it is contrary to the dmne law to act so in this world, 5764. Man could not become guilty because he could not appropriate the evil he did, if he were in a true faith, 6324. Man becomes guilty when he commits evil both from the understanding and the will, 9012, ill. 9069, 9132. He is guilty who knows that a thing is e^^l and yet does not restrain himself ^r«'*'f'^ ^'^^- ^^^ ''""^'^'^^^ ^^' g"il* «^ profanation is, ill. 3398. See Evil. GUM [r^sina]. Aromatics, and gum, and myrrh, denote interior natural truths, which are truths concluded from scientifics, or discovered m them by intuition, ill. and sh. 4748. Gum denotes the truth of good, because it is both an ointment and an aromatic, and hence the same Hebrew word denotes balsam or balm, 5620. See Aromatics, Myrrh, Frankincense, Incense. GUTTER [canalia]. See Water-Pot. 293 4' GYRE. The speech of good spirits and angelic spirits flows rythmically in gyres, without any attention on their part to the words, from experience, 1648. How easily the good gentiles come into such a gyre or chorus, 2595. There is a fluxion or gyration of all the societies of heaven, according to the interior form of heaven, which exceeds all human understanding. This fluxion, like that of the earth about its axis, is not perceptible, but the brain is formed in correspondence with it, 4041, compare 3889. The initiation of spirits into gyres is represented by the defecation of the blood, and Its entering into the circulation, the fluency of the gyres is also corre- spondent to the organs, so that it can be known from their influx to what province they belong in the grand man, 5181, 5182. See Influx. There are four distinct progresses in the formation of gyres, briefly ex- plained, 5182. The sun of heaven, Hke the sun of the world, is im- movable, and makes no change of state by any circumgyration of its own ; all its apparent mutations are from the states of the angels, 8812. See Change, Time, Place, Distance, H. H, the letter, taken from the name of Jehovah, was inserted in the names of Abram and Sarai, on account of the representation of the Lord, 1416, ill. 2010, 2063. That letter is the only one in the name of Jehovah that signifies the Divine, or I AM, 2010. The pronoun, Ps. cxxxii. 6, is expressed by the letter H, taken from the name of Jehovah, because the passage is prophetic of the Lord, 4595. HABIT [habitus]. Man is not born into any exercise of life, like the brute animals, but all his habits are derived from what he learns, 1050. What he is habituated to, flows spontaneously into act, as if from innate genius or nature, 3203. What he learns from childhood does not form his proprium until he habituates himself to it from aff'ection and delight, 3843. The act precedes, the will follows ; thus, what is first done from the understanding, is at length done from the will, and finally becomes habitual, 4353, ill. 4884. Nothing once acquired is ever lost by man, but remains to eternity, either in the exterior or interior memory ; in the latter, whatever conduces to the formation of habit, ill, 7398, particularly 9723. All that the parents contract from actual use and habit is derived into their ofi*sprine. ill, 3469. See Evil (2). ^ ^ HABITATION, Inhabitant, to Inhabit \habitaculum, habitator, habitare]. See House, City, Palaces. They who were of the most ancient church have magnificent habitations, 1116; the habitations of the angels described, 1628, 1629. To inhabit signifies to live, 1293. Inhabitants of a city signify goods dwelling in the truths which form the mind, 2268, 2451; thus, city is predicated of truths, and inhabitant, of the aff'ection of truth, or good, 2712. To inhabit denotes to be and to live, thus, the state of life, sh. 3384, 6051. To tarry with, also denotes to live, but it is predicated of life derived from good ; while to inhabit, is predicated of the life of good from truth, 3613. To cohabit, from which Zebulon is derived, in the supreme sense, signifies the divine itself, united with the Lord's humanity ; in the internal 294 HAG ^nse, the heavenly marriage ; in the external, conjugial love, 3960. The habitation of thy holiness, denotes the Lord's celestial kingdom, and the habitation of thy glory, or of comeliness. His spiritual kingdom, 3960, 9825. To inhabit or dwell with them, signifies to live together, and make one church, 445 1 . To inhabit or dwell in the land of Midian, is to pass the life amongst those who are in simple good, 6773. To dwell near a well, signifies study in the Word, 6774. To dwell with any one, denotes to agree together, 6792. Habitations signify things which are of the mind; thus, of intelligence and wisdom, 7719; or, the interiors of the mind, where intelligence and wisdom dwell together with good, 7910. The tabernacle, or habitation on Mount Sinai, was representative of heaven, where the Lord is, 9481, 9594, specifically of the second, or middle heaven, sh. 9594, 9632. To spread out the heavens and the earth, involves the same things as spreading out the curtains of the tabernacle or habitation, sh. 9596. To inhabit or dwell in the midst, when predicated of the Lord, signifies his presence and influx into the good of love, 1 0, 1 53. See to Dwell. The inhabitant of the land, the nations dwelling in Canaan being treated of, denotes a religious principle in which is evil, 10,640. HADAR IChadar-], See Ishmael. HADORAM, one of the sons of Joktan, signifies a ritual of the Hebrew church, 1245-— 47. See Eber. HAGAR, denotes the affection of external sciences, from which the rational man is produced by the influx of the internal, 1890, 1960, 1964, 2652, 2691. Hagar, as an Egyptian handmaid, denotes the afl'ection of the exterior man, corresponding in degree and kind with sciences and knowledges, and vivifying them, 1895. Hagar denotes the hte ot the extenor or natural man, and her name denotes sojourning, because sojourners represented those who were instructed, 1896, 3264. Hagar denotes the aflection of the knowledges of truth, 2691. Hagar, as a handmaid or concubine, denotes the aff'ection of natural truth •* Sarah, as a wife, the afl^ection of spiritual truth, 8995. General sum- mary, 3264, and citations. See Handmaid. Sarah being barren and having an Egyptian handmaid, denotes truth conjoined to good with the internal man not yet productive of the rational, and the affection of natural truth as the means of its concep- tion and nativity, 1892-1896. Sarah giving her to Abraham that she might have children by her, and Abraham taking her, denotes the perception of the only way in which the rational man can be conceived, and the influx of the internal man inciting the affection of truth, 1898 —-l 902, 1 904, 1 907. Hagar's conception, and her contempt of Sarah, denotes the beginning of rational life, and truth conjoined to good not acknowledged m this state, 1910, 1911, 1915, 1916. Hagar flying from Sarah mto the wilderness, denotes the intestine combats, or tennptations m man, while he is becoming rational, 1923. The angel finding her, and directing her to return to her mistress, denotes the internal thought or dictate that the aff^ection of the natural man must be subject to the spiritual, 1926, 1934-1937. The promise that she should bear a son, and that his seed should be multiplied, denotes the rational mmd formed and the truths belonging thereto in abundance, 7o.n 'lofi % ^'^J^^We^tual truth, or truth conjoined to good, 1938 1 940, 1941. Her beanng a son, and calling his name Ishmael, denotes H AI 295 c • the rational man in his first state from the affection of sciences, 1964. Her being cast out with her son, and wandering in the desert of Beer- sheba, denotes the erratic life which succeeds in consequence of the rational man acting from his proprium, 2650 and sequel, 2672—2679. Her despair in the wilderness, denotes the desolation of truth and good, 2680—2682. Her sitting down at a distance from the child and weeping, denotes the thought of the mind, and its extreme sorrow that spiritual truth should perish, 2683—2689. The angel of God crymg to Hagar out of heaven, denotes perception afforded, with consolation and hope, 2690—2694.

Her fiUing the bottle with water, and giving the lad to drink, denotes instruction so far as such truths could be received, 2703, 2704, compare 2674. See Ishmael. HAL See Ar, Bethel. HAIL \^grando'], and rain of hail, denote falses from evil devas- tating the truths and goods of the church, sh. 7553, 7574. Hail derives this signification from its resemblance to stones, also from its coldness and destructive effects, 7553. The falses signified by hail are in the exterior of the natural mind ; those signified by locusts, m the extremes, 7646. Hail mingled with fire, the fire running along upon the earth, denotes the evils of lust, which accompany falses, and how they occupy the whole mind, 7575, 7577. The raining of hail denotes the influx or infusion of falses, 7576. Passages briefly ex.— ^ekiel xxxviii. 22 ; xiii. 9, 11 ; Isaiah xxx. 30, 31 ; xxviii. 2, 17 ; Psalm Ixxviii. 47, 48, 49 ; cv. 32, 33 ; cxlvii. 16, 1/ ; xviii. 12, 13, 14 ; Rev. vii. 7 ; Josh. x. 11, (7553). • r • u ..u fv,.. HAIR. [There are several Latin words denoting hair, but the author does not appear to discriminate its signification by his usage of them ; we read pilus sen crinis, 3301 ; crinis seu capillus,5247 ; pdus seu capillus, 5247 ; coma seu capillus, 5569, etc These distinctions, therefore, are not observed in the references.] Hair signifies the natural principle as to truth, sh. 3301, and, generally, all that is merely exterior, seriatim, 5569-5573, 6437. Hair has this signification, because the natural principle is an excrescence from things internal, as hair from the ultimates of the body, 3301 . Hair arranged m a becoming manner, denotes the natural state derived from good ; otherwise, when not from good, 330 1 . In the opposite sense, hair denotes the truth ot the natural perverted and false, sh. 3301. Hair m leprous flesh, denotes the unclean falses of profanation, 3301. Hair denotes what is denved from the natural as to good ; scales, what is derived tberefrom as to truth 3527. The hair of the head and the beard, denote the exteriors of the natural, 5247. To poll the hair, denotes to accommodate and to reject what is unbecoming in exteriors, sh 5247, 5569 The priests not to shave their heads, nor cut off their beards, and the Leyites to shave the hair off their flesh when purified, signifies that the natural is not to be rejected, but accommodated and made subordmate to the spiritual, 5247, compare 9960. To conib the hair, is to accommodate the externals, so that they may appear becoming, 5570. The ange s appear with hair disposed in a becoming manner, for it represents their 296 HAM natural life, and its correspondence with internals, 5569. Women who have made everything to consist in adorning their persons, appear in the other life with long hair spread over the face, which they comb, 5570. With those who have been purely natural, in the other life, there is no appearance of a face, but somewhat bearded, or like a bunch of hair 5571, 5247, 3301. Certain Dutch spirits of this character seen by the author, that they were merely natural, and believed nothing concerning spiritual life, 5573. Other spirits described who also appear without any face because the face corresponds to the interiors, and in- stead thereof a hairy appearance, or grate of teeth, etc., 4533, 10,429 An appearance of hair, and a voice tacitly speaking from it, representing the sensitive life of the merely corporeal nature, 4329. In a good sense, the growth of hair denotes the natural increase or extension of ^e church, 6432. Grey hair denotes the end of the church 5832 Hair like the hair of women, and teeth like the teeth of lions, denotes the fallacious appearance of good in externals, 7643. Baldness of every head, denotes no good and truth in interiors ; every beard shaved off no good and truth in exteriors, 9656. To poll the head, is to take away the internal truths of the church ; to poll the hair and consume the beard Its external truths, 9960.

Making themselves A^^n"" ^S f ? o*^™o""i»Dg» denotes grief when natural truth is wanting 4/79. Baldness denotes the intelligence of truth and the wisdom of good deprived of their ultimates, thus, that the interiors flow out and pensh 9960, 10,044. Elisha called baldhead, denotes the false persua- sion that the Word contains no truth adequate to the understanding of man thus no natural truth upon which the internal or spiritual sense can subsist, 3301, 5247. Elias a hairy man, and John the Baptist clothed m raiment of camels' hair, denote the truth of the Word in ulti- mates 5247, 7643, 9828, especially 9372. The prophets were clothed with hair, because they represented the Lord as to the truths of doc trine which are of the natural man, 4677. Esau a hairy man, and Jacob a plain man, represented the respective qualities of good and truth produced in externals, 3501, 3527. The Nazarites, whose holi- ness and strength consisted in their hair, represented the Lord as to the Divme Human, or the celestial man, and his power by means of truth in the natural, 3301, 5247, 6437, 9839. See Nazarite. The hair, being the ultimate or last, denotes the whole ; for it is the ultimate or last which holds all the interiors in their connection and order, sh. 10,044. See First, External.

HALT [claudus]. See Lame. BAM [Chaml The three classes of men forming the Noatic or spiritual church, are signified by the three sons of Noah; 1062. Those who have corrupted the internal of the church, by making faith alone principal are denoted by Ham, 1060, 1062, 4680. He is called the tather ot Canaan, because from that corruption originated external HAN 297 » s I worship without internal, 1 063, 1075, 1078. The men of this corrupted church were called Ham, because they appeared black to the ancients by reason of the heat of their lusts, 1063 ; thus, because they lived in evil, 2417. The quality of this cor»upted church more particularly described, and how they lived in their proprium, 1076. How they see nothing but evil in others, and hold them in contempt, 1079, 1080 Why Canaan, the son of Ham, was cursed for the deed of the latter,* 1091—1093. The Canaanites, and the other sons of Ham, denote those who p ace worship in knowledges, scientifics, and rituals, separate from luternal things, 1132, 1160—1167. They are the names of so many nations, 1160, 1163 ; and they denote such knowledges in both senses, good and evil, 1163. See Ethiopia (Cush), Egypt (Mizraim) Lybia (Puth, or Phut), and Canaan. All who are imbued with the knowledges of faith, and have not charity, are the sons of Ham ; and this, whether their knowledge consists in the deepest mysteries of the internal sense of the Word, or in a thorough knowledge of the literal sense and the truths which illustrate it, or in the Science of ntual worship, 1162. Ham denotes the same thing in the spiritual church as Cam in the celestial, 1179, 2417. They who separate faith from chanty, cast themselves into falses and evils, as was represented by Cain and Abel, by Ham and Canaan, by Reuben, and by the Egyptians whose first born were slain, 3325. See Cain. u^^^Xd^T^ [cAawaMi]. SeeAMORiTE, Hivite, Jebusite. HAMMER [malleus]. Certain spirits, who are seen carrying a hammer or axe, described, 821.

The hand IS sometimes predicated of good, because all potency and faculty belongs to good, 3563. The hand denotes power, and hence the faculty of re- ceiving, briefly, 354 1 . Power by means of divine truth, and the hand as signifying power, is predicated of God (EL), sh, 4402. They who correspond to the hands, the arms, and the shoulders, in the grand man, are powerful by the truth of faith derived from good, 4932, 828 1 . Seria- tim passages concerning this correspondence, 4931—4937. All the powers and forces of the whole body, and all its viscera have respect to the exercise of power by the arms and hands, 4933 ; see below, 10,019.

To go to the right hand or the left, and to look to the right hand or to the left, denotes the separation of the external and internal man, and their reciprocal freedom, 1582, 3159. The head and the whole body exercises its power by the hand, and power is the active manifestation of the life ; hence, the hand denotes the whole man, and whatever is in him, and to sit at the right hand of the Father, when predicated of the Lord, denotes the Father himself, 9133, 9249, 10,019, 10,023. What is on the right hand of man signifies good, and its procedure by truths ; what is on the left hand, truths and their procedure to good ; in the opposite sense, evil producing the false, and the false producing evil, sh. 10,061, 10,062, 10,075. The thumb of the right hand, and the thumb of the right foot, signify truth in its power from good, or the intellectual faculty of the middle heaven, and that of the ultimate heaven, ill. 10,062, 10,063.

The corn of Egypt gathered together under the hand of Pharaoh in the cities of Egypt, denotes the good of truth reserved in the interiors of the natural mind, and in the power of the natural man, 5296, 5297. Benjamin to be confided to the hand of Reuben, denotes faith in the understanding, as far as possible, preserv- ing the means of conjunction between the internal and external, 5544, compare 5411. Joseph taking Ephraim in his right hand to the left hand of Israel, and Manasseh in his left hand to the right hand of Israel, denotes truth held in the second place by the internal man, and good in the first, 6267.

Uzzah putting his hand to the ark, and dying in consequence, denotes the profanatioS ot holy things proceeding from the proprium, 878. The people of Israel unable to go, even with a strong hand, from Pharaoh, and Jehovah sending his hand, denotes the power of the spiritual man in- Tano^alZ'^^''^!' ^^^ ^'^ ""^ ^^^^'^^ Vo^^' to resist those that infest, oyu«, t)909. Pharaoh's sending them away, and expelling them from l^gypt with a strong hand, denotes the infernals compelled by punish- ment and forcibly withholding themselves from doing further evil, 7188, 7189. Israel prevailing against Amalek when the hand of Moses was raised, and Amalek prevailing when it was letdown, denotes the spiritual always victorious over falses by faith in the Lord, and always overcome when the power of faith fails them, 8604—8607 The hands of Moses heavy, and Aaron and Hur putting a stone for him to sit upon, and sustaining his hands on either side, denotes the power of looking to the Lord deficient, and strength procured by the reception and determination of truth from ultimates, 8608—8614.

The right hand to be cut off if it offend, denotes evil that has acquired potency by what is false, and its destruction, 10,061. 2. Hand, and Staff or Rod, ^c. A tribe, a staff or rod, tfnd a sceptre, are expressed by one and the same word in the original Hebrew, which denotes the power of good by truth, the rods of the twelve princes laid up in the tabernacle, and the rod of Aaron blossom- ing and bearing almonds, ex, 3858. A staff always signifies power on account of its use by shepherds, and its sustaining the body and serv- ing, as It were, for a right hand, 4013. On account of this signification, the staff and the sceptre have been received from antiquity as insignia of royal authority ; priests, prophets, and magicians have also used it for the same reasons, 4013, ill. 4876. The hand or arm, and the staff, both signify power ; the hand as principal, and the staff as in- strumental, 4876. The staff signifies power, because it sustains the body by means of the arm and the hand, and the signification of the part that it proximately sustains is induced upon it, 4876. The eflS- cacy of the staff in the miracles wrought by Moses, and of the spear of Joshua, &c., was derived from the celestial and spiritual things cone- 302 HAN HAN 303 sponding ; it is irrational to suppose there was any potency infused into the staff or the hand of Moses, 8/8, particularly 4876, 7673. There was a force in all the representatives that were commanded to be done at that time : so in the case of Joshua when he extended his spear, but it was by virtue of the signification, 7673. Magicians, in the other life, appear to themselves to have staffs, and they form them of various kinds by their fantasies, believing that they do miracles by a power contained in the staff, from experience, 4936. The hand, and the rod of Moses, denote the potency of the Lord's divine human, be- cause Moses himself represented the Lord as the divine law or Word, 6947. His hand denotes the power proceeding from the divine rational ; his staff, the power proceeding from the divine natural ; the former being relatively internal, the latter external, 6947. The staff signifies power when it is in the hand, because the external or natural has no power except from the spiritual, 7011. To take a staff and stretch out the hand is to exercise spiritual power by natural, 7322. The rod of Moses cast out of his hand, and turned into a serpent, denotes the influx of the divine potency manifesting the sensual and corporeal man, as separate from the internal, 6947 — 6949. Moses putting forth his hand, and taking hold of the serpent, and its becoming a rod in his hand, denotes the elevation of the sensual towards the in- terior, and power from the divine communicated to it, 6952 — 6954. The rod of Aaron turned into a water-serpent before Pharaoh and his servants, denotes the fallacies and falses of the sensual state manifested by the withdrawal of the influx of truth and good, 7292 — 7295. The rods of the magicians turned into water-serpents, and the rod of Aaron swallowing them up, denotes the perversion of order by which such fallacies and falses are accepted as truths, and their instant dissipation by divine power, 7298, 7299. Moses and Aaron smiting the waters of Egypt with the rod that was turned into a serpent, and the waters be- coming blood, denotes the total falsification of truth manifested, 7309, 7316, 7317, 7322, 7327, 7336. Aaron stretching out his hand with his rod over the waters, and frogs coming up, denotes the power of in- ternal truth, by external truth, manifesting the reason of the natural man derived from mere falses, 7382 — 7387. Aaron stretching out his hand with his rod over the land of Egypt, and smiting the dust, and its becoming lice, denotes the power of internal truth by external manifest- ing interior and exterior evils, 7422 — 7428. Moses stretching out his hand towards heaven, and the hail coming, denotes a more present influx of divine truth, and the falses of evil manifested destroying all the good and truth of the church, 7568, 7569. Moses stretching out his rod towards heaven, and the voices of the thunder heard, and fire descending upon the earth mingled with hail, denotes the recession and separation of the evil from those who are in truth and good, and the evils of their lusts manifested, 7572 — 7577. Moses stretching out his rod over Egypt, and the east wind and the locusts brought upon it, denotes the power of divine truth prevailing, the influx from the heavens now in order turned into its opposite with the evil, and falses diffusing themselves towards the interior, 7678 — 7684. Moses stretch- ing his hand towards heaven, and thick darkness coming over the land, denotes the power of divine truth prevailing, and the state of the evil deprived of all perception, 7713 — 7716. Moses stretching out his hand over the sea, and the east wind dividing its waters, denotes the dominion of divine truth over hell, and the influx of its falses prevented, 8200--8206 ; its waters returning upon the Egyptians, that they revert to the evil themselves who have rushed into them, 8223. 3. Imposition of Hands. From the signification of the hand is derived the ceremony of inauguration and blessing by the laying on of hands, 878. The hands are laid upon the head, because in the head are the intellectual and voluntary faculties themselves ; but in the body, act and obedience, 6293, ill. 10,044. The inauguration of Aaron and his sons to represent the Lord as to divine truth was by filling their hands (* consecration ') ; and their inauguration to represent the Lord as to divine good, by anointing, 9955, ill. and *A. 10,019. The fill- ing of the hand in the ceremony of inauguration was to denote that all power was to be attributed to the Lord, and none whatever to any angel, or spirit, or man, 10,019. It denotes the second state of the Lord's glorification, and also of man's regeneration when he is wholly imbued with good, 10,076. The filling of the hand is a representative of the communication and reception of divine truth proceeding from the divine good of the Lord in the heavens, thus, of divine power, sh. 10,076, 10,493, and of purification from evils and falses, 10,076. The divine power represented by the filling of their hands was the power of saving the human race, and, consequently, power over heaven and hell as the means of salvation, ill. and sh. 10,019. To put the hands upon the head signifies communication and reception, thus, the translation of the thing intended by it, because all the activities of the man's life, and the man himself, are signified by the hand, 10,023. The sons of Israel putting their hands upon the Levites, signifies the translation of the power of ministering for them, and its reception, thus, separation, 10,023. The Levites putting their hands upon the head of the bullock signifies the translation (or ascription) of that power to Jehovah, that is, the Lord, 10,023. The ram of impletion, in the same ceremony, signifies the good of innocence and charity in the internal man ; its blood put upon the thumb of the right hand, and upon the thumb of the right foot, its procedure and potency, 10,056, 10,057, 10,062, 10,063, 10,076. The fat of the ram, the right shoulder, the bread, &c., all put upon the palms of the hands of Aaron, denotes the ac- knowledgment that the whole is from the Lord, 10,082, compare 6289, 9019. Aaron putting his hands upon the head of the goat Azazel (scape goat), signifies the communication and translation of all the iniquities and sins of the sons of Israel, and their remission to hell as sig- nified by the desert, 10,023. The imposition of hands upon the burnt- offerings and sacrifices signifies communication, translation, and recep- tion, in the various senses required by acknowledgment, confession, purification, and the implantation of good and truth, thus, conjunction with the Lord, 10,023, 10,041—10,044, 10,056, 10,058. Jesus putUng his hands upon the young children signifies the communication and reception of divine virtue by which the healing of the interiors is effected, thus, salvation, 10,023. The contact of the hand in all these cases is from representatives in the other life, for those who are in a similar state are associated together, and they who mutually touch communicate the state of their life, if they touch by the hands, the whole of their life, 10,023. See ^o Fill, 304 II AN HAND, Left [sinistral See Hand. . t .u ' HANDLES, the [ansula}, or clasps of gold (taches) made for the tabernacle, denote the faculty of conjunction by good, for that faculty is in them by virtue of their curved form, 9611. Those of brass, denote the faculty of conjunction by external good, 9624. The vad hung under them denotes the actuahty of this faculty, 9678. See Tent. HANDxVlAID [ancilla]. Intellectual truth, or truth conjomed to good, is denoted by a mistress or lady ; the affection of sciences and knowledges in the external man by a handmaid, 1895, 1900--1902, 1920, 1960, 1964, 2652, 2691, 3264, 8995. Servants and handmaids denote rational and natural truths, and their affections, 2567. Hand- maids denote the affection of scientifics or doctrinals, according to the subject predicated, 2583. Handmaids denote external affections, or bonds, because all affections are bonds in virtue of their ruling man, and binding him to himself, 3835. Handmaids denote external affec- tions serving the internal as mediums, 3835, 3849. Men-servants and handmaids denote affirmative mediums, serving for the conjunction ot good and of truth, or of the internal and external man, HI. 3913, briefly 3917, 3931, 3937, 4344, ill. 8995. Handmaids are the affections or goods of the natural man, servants the truths, 4037, 4244, 9034. Handmaids denote scientific sensuals, or the affection of whatever is perceived by the senses, briefly ill. 4360. The lord of the house and his lady, or the husband and wife, denote good and truth ; daughters and sons, affections of good and truth ; men-servants and handmaids, the scientifics and pleasures which minister to these and confirm them, ill and sh. 5023. A handmaid denotes the natural man generally, as to good ; a man-servant, as to truth, 8890. They who are only affected with the science of good and truth, are denoted by servants, or males ; they who are in the affection of good and truth, by handmaids, or females, ill. 8994. A handmaid signifies the affection of truth from natural delight; a daughter, the genuine affection of truth, 9001. Scientifics, considered in themselves, are denoted by men-servants and asses; their pleasures by maid-servants and she-asses, 1486. -rlocks denote interior goods and truths ; handmaids and servants, middle goods and truths, which are of natural affection ; camels and asses, the truths of good, exterior and external, ill. 4036—4038, compare 4244. The procreation of children from handmaids, who were then called concubines, was tolerated in ancient times, that those who are without the church, and those who are in an inferior state within the church, might be represented, 2868, compare 9281. The ancient church ad- miUed of this practice when the wife was barren, lest spiritual death, instead of the resurrection to life, should be represented, 3915. The offspring thus conceived with the consent of the wife, were acknow- ledged as legitimate by being borne upon her knees or thighs, 3915. The Egyptian handmaid given to Abraham denotes the affection of sciences by which the spiritual or rational man is first conceived, 3264, and citations. See Hagar. The handmaid of Leah denotes the cor- poreal affections, or those of the pleasures and appetites of the body ; the handmaid of Rachel, those which are proximately interior, or the natural affections, 3835, 3849. The handmaids of Rachel and Leah given to Jacob, denote the means of conjunction between interior truths and external or natural truths, that it is by such affections, etc. 3913, -"<^ H AR 305 3917, 3919, 3925, 3931—3933, 3937. Jacob's preparing to meet Esau, and his putting the handmaidens and their children first, denotes the order in which truths are arranged, from those under the more common or exterior affections to the more interior, 4338, 4344, 4345. The handmaidens and their children approaching to Esau, and bowing themselves, and then the wives and their children, denotes the order in which the external man submits himself when divine good flows in, 4355, 4360. The first-born of Egypt slain, from the first-born of Pharoah upon the throne to the first-born of the handmaid behind the mills, denotes the truths of faith, from first to last, falsified, 7779, 7780. Thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy servants, and thy hand- maids, and thy beasts, and thy strangers, not to do any work, denotes the whole man and his affections in the order of heaven, and hence, peace, 8890 and citations. The house and the wife of another not to be coveted, denotes his good and truth not to be injured or taken away from him ; his servant and his handmaid, denotes the affection of spiritual truth, and the affection of spiritual good ; his ox and his ass, the affection of natural good, and the affection of natural truth, 8912, compare 5023. above. The daughter of an Israelitish man sold for a handmaid or servant, denotes the affection of truth flowing from the loves of self and the world, ill. 8993, and more particularly as to its quality, 8994, The law respecting the handmaid in this case, denotes that it is ac- cording to order to treat an affection of this nature as if it were genuine providing it can be conjoined to any truth, and that it is not to be alienated or deprived of life, or hindered from proceeding to such con- junction (Exod. xxi. 7 — 11), 8992 — 9037 ; but that is otherwise, if there is no truth to which it corresponds and can be conjoined, 9004, 9005. See Good (21). HANG, to [suspenderel Hanging on wood denotes rejection and damnation, sh. 5156. Hanging was on account of evil, and stoning on account of the false, 5156. Hanging represents the damnation of pro- fanation, 5044. On this account, the chiefs of the people were ordered to be hanged up before the sun when the children of Israel committed whoredom with the Moabites, 5044, 10,652. See Stoning. HANGINGS [tapetes']. See Curtains. HANOCH [Chanoch]. See Midian. HARBOUR. See Haven. HAPPINESS OF Heaven. See Heaven (4). HARAN. Abram, Nahor, and Haran, the sons of Terah, were persons from whom certain idolatrous nations were named ; such na- tions consisting of the families which dwelt together, 1355 — 1360. The beginning of this idolatry is signified by Terah, its three interior varieties by Abram, Nahor, and Haran, its external by Lot, the son of Haran and father of Moab and Ammon, 1363, 1364. Haran dying, after having begotten Lot, denotes the obliteration of interior worship, so as to leave 'only external idolatry, 1365 — 1367; in which state a new church can be commenced, 1366, compare 1361. When the repre- sentative Jewish Church began with Abram, therefore, his father, Terah, and his brothers, Nahor and Haran, also put on the representation of churches, 3778. That of Haran, it would seem, was carried on under the person of his son : see Lot. Charan (authorised version, Haran) was a region where idolatrous X 306 H AR HAT 307 worship prevailed ; it denotes an obscure state like that of boyhood, 1430, 1435, 1436. The family of Abram arriving in Charau, and Terah dying there, denotes the end of the idolatry which prevailed with them, and the commencement of the representative church by in- struction, 1373 — 13/5. The subsequent departure of Abram from Charan denotes progression towards heavenly and divine things, 1425 — 1426. See Abra&i. Laban in Charan denotes the affection of good in what is external or corporeal, 3612. Jacob in Charan, the affection of truth there, 3601), 3612, and thus, its remoteness from divine doc- trinals, 3691. The well of Charan, to which Jacob came, denotes the Word in the letter, 37 Go, The flocks lying by it, the holy things of the church, &c., 3/67. HARD, Hardened [durum, induratum.^ Hardness is predicated of the confirmed state of what is false derived from evil, 6359. Certain kinds of falses actually produce indurations and pains in the head ; truths, on the contrary, flow softly and freely ; from experience, 5563. To suffer hard things signifies temptation, 4586, 5628, 9102. They suffer hard things in the other life, who are only in natural good, 5032. They also who ascend from an inferior heaven to a superior, 8797. To speak harshly, or say hard things, is predicated of the understanding when the internal and external are not in correspondence ; for the ex- ternal is then hard and unyielding, 5423, 5511. Hardness is predi- cated of truth without good, and they who are in truth do not willingly bow themselves even in adoration of the divine ; good, on the contrary, when it is insinuated into truth softens and humbles them, so that they who are in good will bow themselves to the ground, 7068. Truth received at once without intuition, is comparatively hard, and incapable of varying itself to the reception of influx ; hence, it is according to order not to receive truth without the fullest examination, in order that the spiritual sight may be more extended and reach even to opposites, 7298. Hardness denotes the obduracy and obstinacy of those who are principled in the falses of evil, 7272, 7305. They who are in evils of life are not soft and yielding to influx like the good, but hard and rigid; hence, they reject truths, 83 1 3. Jehovah is said to harden the heart, or fix the heart firm, according to the appearance ; but the truth is, all hardness and resistance comes from evil, thus from man himself, 7032, 7272, 7300, 7533, 7632, 7643, 8186. There are two expressions to this import ; namely, to grieve or make heavy the heart, which is pre- dicated of the false, and to harden or fix the heart firm, which is predi- cated of evil, 7616, 7305. HARDEN, to [indurare]. See Hard. HARLOT [meretrix]. See Adultery. Young girls, who have been seduced into prostitution, not sufficiently knowing its iniquity, are instructed and chastised in the other hfe until they are amended, 1113. Adult females, who have been wickedly given to whoredom, are in hell, 1113. Adulteries are from the adulterations of good, and whoredoms from the falsifications of truth, 2466. A harlot signifies what is false, 4865 ; whoredom the falsification of truth, and adultery the adulteration of good, 10,648. Whoredoms or falsifications are effected by three methods, which are explained, 10,648. To commit whoredom, is illegi- timate conjunction at first, and afterwards profanation, 10,652. HARMONY [harmonia]. There is no absolute unit or one thing, but all oneness is from the harmony of several, and is according to the quality of their harmony ; ill. by tlie order of heaven and the human form, 457, 687, 3241 ; by goods and truths, 3986; and by the associa- tion of houses or families, 8003. From the harmony and unanimity prevailing in it, every society of heaven constitutes one person, 684. There are innumerable differences in heaven, but the most minute differences unanimously conspire to one common harmony, because they all tend to one end, which is love and faith, 684, 690. All the sweet- ness and softness of harmony, and all the fluency of speech in the other life, is from goodness and charity, 1759. The innumerable varieties of good and truth are harmonized by the reference of all to the Lord, comparatively as the various organs and parts of the body are har- monized into one by their connection and disposition under one soul, 3241. The unity into which goods and truths are composed is from varieties harmonized together, and not sameness, ill. 3986. It is not one truth that confirms good, but the connection and mutual illustra- tion of many truths ; for one alone can no more assume any form, than a single tone afford harmony in music, 4197. Good with man is an influx from the Lord, which assumes a form in the human understand- ing, and presents itself as the harmony and delight flowing from all the truths he has acquired, 5147, 9206, compare 5807. See Good (21). Spiritual harmony, by which all heaven is preserved in one form, is the harmony of the goods of love, 8003 and citations, compare 8936. The conjunction of the angelic societies, so as to form one heaven, is the result of a few general laws depending from the formation of every one thing out of many, and from the influx of love including and containing the whole ; the laws of this harmony recited, 9613. It was the custom of the ancient church to represent the harmony of the spiritual affec- tions by music and dancing, 8339. See Choir, Dance, Music. HARP [cithara]. See Music. HART [cervu^y the male deer]. See Deer. HARVEST [messis]. Wheat-harvest denotes the proceeding state of love and charity, or their procedure as regeneration advances, 3941. Sowing-time denotes the state of preparation, that truths may be received in good ; the harvest, or standing corn, such truths advanced to perfec- tion by good, 5895. See Corn, Field, Wheat, Barley. The feast of the first-fruits of harvest, represented the implantation of truth, or the human race introduced into heaven by the reception of new life from the Lord, 9294, 9295. See Feasts. * Harvest-time denotes the state of the human race as to the reception of the truth of faith in good, also a similar state of the church, a similar state of the man of the church, and a similar state of good, sh. 9295, 10,083. HASTY r/e«/inMm]. See Quickly. HATCHET [securis]. An axe or hatchet, a chisel, etc., signify the intellectual proprium, or its faculty of shaping its ovra figments into a resemblance of the truth, 8942. The iron of a hatchet signifies the truth of faith, and its opposite, what it is to fell wood in a forest, 901 1. A battle-axe {malleum] signifies the omnipotence of the Lord by divine truth, 2547, 8281. HATRED [odium.'] The loves of self and the world, though they resemble it in appearance, are not love but hatred, br. ill. 33. Evil spirits, who are in these loves, hate all good and truth, 59. The love X 2 308 HAT of self, and hatred against the Lord and the neighbour are the same thing, 251. As the love of the Lord and the neighbour, and the feli- city derived therefrom constitute heaven, so the hatred of the Lord and the neighbour, and the punishment occasioned by them, constitute hell, 693, 694. The hatreds that make hell and bring men into hell are not hereditary inclinations, but hatreds actually cherished, 1608. They who live in internecine hatred breathe nothing but death to one another, and their vindictiveness extends even to the destruction of the soul, 814, 815. Hatred is signified by bloodshedding, because where there is hatred there is violence done to charity, and the murder of man is latent in it, ill. 1010, 1011; ill. and sh. 8901, 8902, 10,490. The spheres of those who have cherished hatred and revenge occasion vomit- ings and swoons, for they are poisonous, 1512. Hatred taking the place of charity is signified by gross darkness after sunset ; and in con- sequence of the darkness it occasions, they who cherish hatred do not perceive it to be infernal, but find their delight in it, 1860. Hatred induces upon those who cherish it the horrid image of hell, and they appear in diabolical forms in the other life ; many such are so infatu- ated as to believe they shall get to heaven by faith, where there are nothing but forms of charity, 1860. Forms of hatred and forms of charity cannot possibly abide together, 1860 ; their formation ill. 10,0/6. When charity declines in the church, liatred of one towards the other is cherished internally, though it is prevented from appearing by external bonds which are of the love of self and the world, 2910. There is not only no charity in the church at the present day, but interior hatred, though it does not appear externally ; but it breaks out as often as these external bonds do not restrain it, 2910, ill. 3488. Evils break forth in manifest hatred when they are vastated, 3322. Hatred denotes contempt and aversion for all good and truth, ill. by the disciples hated of all men, 3488, 8902 ; and by Joseph's brethren hating him, 4681, 4684 ; hence it denotes rejection, 6558, compare 3449. When hatred is predicated of the good, it does not signify hatred in the internal sense, for opposites cannot be together, but aver- sion; when predicated of the Lord, mercy, sh. 3605. They who hate any one, although without cause, hate him also when they come into the other life, and then breathe his destruction, from experience, 5061. Hatred is aversion and spiritual antipathy, 5061. When the evil in the other life perceive the sphere of any one they have hated, they come as it were into a state of frenzy, 5061. They who have cherished hatred and revenge, and are imbued with falses therefrom, appear to have hard skulls like ebony, 5563. Hatred and revenge are among the causes of disease, 5712. Description of certain spirits who sought to acquire dominion over others by exciting hatreds and divisions among them, 5718. The hatred of evil spirits towards man is so great, that it is perilous for any one to come into open consort with spirits unless he is in the good of faith, 5863. As to the hells of those who are more particularly in hatred, 814—823. See Hell. They who are in falses hate and persecute those who are in truths, 6422. Hatred, in the spiritual sense, is the aversion and dissent existing between truths and falses and between goods and evils, 9257 ; the words of the Lord (Luke xvi. 13) br. ex. 9265. Father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, and his own soul, to be hated by the disciple *■ .. HE A 309 of the Lord, denotes evils and falses in their order, and the whole pro- prium or self-hood of man to be shunned, 10,490. See Love of SJf and the World (Love). HAVEN, OR PORT, or HARBOUR, a \^portu8\, denotes the station where scientifics terminate and commence, or where there is a conclusion of truth from scientifics, 6384. See Tribes (Zebuloti). HAVILAH [Chavillah']. The land of Havilah signifies the mind ; its gold, good in the mind, 110 ; its river, intelligence flowing in, 115, compare 3273—3277, and 1951. Havilah, the son of Cush, signifies knowledges of spiritual things under the head of Seba, 1168 — 1170. Sec Seba. Havilah, the son of Joktan, only occurs in the genealogy of Shem, where it denotes a specific ritual of the Hebrew church ; the Sheba and Havilah, so often mentioned in the Word, being of the stock of Ham, 1245. See Eber. HAUGHTINESS. See Love of Self and the World (Love). HAZARMxWETH [Chazarmaveth], one of the sons of Joktan, signifies a ritual of the Hebrew church, 1245 — 1247. See Eber. Hx\ZEL, the {cori/lus], denotes natural truth, 4014. HAZO [Chaso]. See Nahor. HAZOR, Kingdoms of [chazoris regna"]. See Kedar. HEAD [caput~\. In ancient times the head was understood to denote what is supreme ; the breast, what is above the earth ; and the belly, what is proximate to the earth, 247. The head and face denote celestial and spiritual things ; the breast, their derivatives, such as charity and mercy, or rational things, 259, 2162. The head denotes what is superior or interior, by which inferior things are ruled, as those of the body by the head, 3728. When the whole heaven is represented in form it appears as one man, of which the head represents the in- most or celestial heaven, the body the middle or spiritual heaven, and the feet the ultimate or natural heaven, 5328, 4938, 4939. The head denotes the interiors, especially of the voluntary part or will, because in the head are the principles of all substances and forms ; hence, it is the seat to which all sensation tends, and the source from which all action is derived, 5145, 9656. The head denotes the interior man in contradistinction to the body or exterior man, 6188, ill. 7859 ; or in- terior principles compared with exterior, 6436. The head denotes the celestial state of which wisdom is predicated; a crown of gold upon the head, the good of love, 6524. The interiors of man are denoted by the head, the exteriors by the tail ; and man divests himself of human nature and puts on the nature of a beast unless the interiors be kept elevated, 6952, compare 7442. The head denotes spiritual things ; hands, the interior of the natural ; and feet, the natural, ill. 7442. The head is the supreme ; and the supreme in the spiritual sense is the inmost, 7859, 10,181, 10,184. The head denotes the truth that man makes the essential of his faith, thus the truth of his faith, hr. sh. 9166. The head denotes the interiors, because it is the superior part of the body, and because the principles of sense and motion are seated there, br. ill. and sh. 9656, ill. 9914. The head denotes the whole man, because all will and understanding, and all effects in the body, proceed from the head, 10,011, 10,044. The procedure of the nerves, &c., by means of the neck into the body, and their action upon the organs according to the determination of the will, correspond to the » I 310 HE A ^il procedure and influx of the powers and forces of the celestial kingdom, or head of the grand man, ill. 9913, 9914. The influx of celestial good and brotherly love, or the procedure of good from interiors to truths in exteriors, is denoted by oil running down from the head of Aaron upon his beard and upon his garments, 9806. The anointing of the head in Aaron's inauguration represented divine good in the whole human of the Lord, for when the head is anointed the whole body is understood, 10,011. Oil poured upon the head of a stone or statue, was to represent good as the superior of truth, and truth as nothing without good, 3728. Jehovah's descending upon the head of the mountain, denotes the inmost heaven where he is more immediately present, 8826, 8827. The glory of Jehovah like a fire in the head of the mountain, denotes divine truth in that heaven resplendent from the good of love, 9434. Moses to ascend to the head or summit of the mountain to receive the law, denotes the beginning of a new revelation from the inmost heaven, 10,606. The head of Jacob's ladder reaching to heaven, denotes the communication open between the lowest truth and the highest, which is the divine in heaven, 3699, 3700. The tower of Babel with its head in heaven, denotes the love of self pro- faning all that is holy, and opposed to celestial love, 1307. To have the head in heaven is predicated of the spiritual man who is in internal love ; the head in hell is the contrary, when the loves of self and the world are delighted in, 8995. Infernal spirits only descend to a greater depth in hell when they desire to lift up their heads into heaven, 1307. The head of Pharoah's butler lifted up, denotes the elevation of those towards interiors who have been vastated by the infestation of infernal spirits, 5124. To lift up the head was a formulary of judgment either to life or death, and denotes what is concluded, either from Providence or foresight, 5124, 5155, 5162. To swear by the head is predicated of the confirmation of that which man believes to be true from the pro- prium ; the words of the Lord fully ex. and tV/., 9166. The custom of putting the hand upon the head in benedictions and inaugurations is derived from ancient times, and it was instituted because the head is where the intellectual and voluntary faculties are, and the body where act and compliance is, 6292, ill. 10,044. See Hand (3). The paschal lamb to be washed whole, the head of it upon the legs of it upon the middle of it, denotes the good of love imbued from inmost to outer- most, 7859. The ram of impletion cut into pieces, and the intestines washed, and the legs, and their being put upon the pieces and upon the head, denotes the purification and arrangement of the exteriors under the interiors, and all under the inmost, 10,048 — 10,051. The baker of Pharoah with the perforated baskets upon his head, denotes the interiors of the voluntary part without the distinctions or degrees formed by conscience, ill. 5144, 5145. The head or first of the months denotes the principal of all states, or the beginning from which they afterwards proceed, 7827, 7828. The head of the serpent denotes the dominion of evil or love of self, 257, 2219, ill. in contrast with the tail of the serpent, 6952. Israel bowing himself upon the head of the bed when about to die, denotes man in the state immediately be- fore regeneration turning to the interiors of the natural mind, 6188, compare 6 1 7^» When man is resuscitating two angels sit at the head, 172 — 174. Those spirits are situated above the head in the world of HE A 311 spirits who aspire to high things, 1276. They who teach, and they who suff*er themselves to be taught, appear above the head ; they who act prudently and tacitly under the back part of the head, 4403. Other spirits described who act into the head, and some who desire to ex- plore the thoughts, &c., 5180. HEAL, to [sanare, curare]. Physicians, medicines, &c., denote the means of preservation from evils and falses, which are the truths of faith, ill. and sh. 6502. The leaves of the trees seen in vision by Ezekiel are said to be for healing, because leaves correspond to truths, briefly, 885 ; more particularly, 6502. To heal is to cure and purify from evils, and also to preserve from them ; hence, the Lord himself is called the healer or physician, sh. 8365. The curing and healing of disease denotes the restoration of spiritual life, because disease and sickness correspond to the internal state of man when he declines from the truth to the false and from good to evil, ill. and «A., 9031. To heal is to amend and restore, sh. 9163. The healing of the interiors is efi'ected by the communication and reception of divine virtue, which is represented by contact, and especially by the touch of the hand, ill. and sh. 10,023. The healing of the interiors is salvation, 10,023. The healings of diseases by the Lord when he was in the world, de- note healings of the spiritual life, and thus salvation, by the removal of evils and falses of various kinds, 8364, 8495, 9086, 10,083, 10,360. The healings of disease by the Lord were done on the Sabbath days, because the Sabbath represented his conjunction with the human race, 8495; ill. and ^A. 10,360; and thus the conjunction of good and of truth from him, 9086. They only were healed who had faith, because spiritual life can only be communicated by truths when the divine can be in them, and that can only be when he is acknowledged in them from the heart, ill. 10,083. A healing virtue is ascribed to the balm of Gilead, because it denotes interior truths, 4/48, and the first con- junction of good and truth, 4117, 4124, 4255. See Gilead. HEAP, a\acervu8, cumulus'], denotes good, because the ancients made heaps upon which they ate together, and afterwards built altars to represent the good of love, 4192—4195. A heap as a testimony denotes the confirmation of good by truth, 4197, 4204. A heap of corn denotes truth and good received; standing corn, or field, truth and good in conception, 9145, 9146. Heaps of frogs denote falses conglomerated together in the natural mind, 7408. Heaps of corpses and no end of bodies, denote evils and those who are in evils, innu- merable, 6978. HEARING, Hear, to [auditus, audire]. The ear denotes obe- dience, and the correspondence from which its signification is derived is involved in the word to hear, and still more in the word to hearken, 2542. To hear is predicated of afi*ection ; to see, of thought, 2641. Hearing afi*ects the will as well as the understanding, and has a per- suasive influence, 3869, particularly ill. 5077. The ideas which enter by hearing are turned into visual images, similar to those which enter by seeing, 4408, ill. 8361. The correspondence, influx, and commu- nication of thought is with speech, and of the apperception of thought with hearing, ill. from experience, 4652. The sense of hearing cor- responds to the affection of learning and to obedience, 4404. To see with the eyes is to understand and have faith; to hear with the ears is 312 HE A I I 1 • to be in obedience, 2/01. To hear, generally, denotes to obey, 2542, 2932, 2963, 3684 ; because what is heard passes into the internal sight or understanding, where it is taken up by the will and transmitted into act, 8361. It also denotes to perceive, 3163, or apperceive, ill. 5017, 5254, 5477 ; in its full sense, to perceive, to understand, and to have faith ; but this when conjoined with doing, 8361. On this ac- count it denotes hope, briefly ill, 7065. To hear also involves the signification of what is communicated, 5032 ; and what is received, 5475, especially by faith and obedience, 7216, ill, 10,199. Not to hear and not to be heard, denotes what is not obeyed or received, and hence aversion, 5001, 54/1, 5475, 7216, 7794. To hear signifies reception in various senses according to the subject predicated ; thus, to receive in the memory and be instructed, to receive in the under- standing and believe, to receive by obedience and do, sh. 931 1, compare 2920, and the subject there treated of. To hear also denotes influx because nothing can be received or perceived but what flows in ; hence, in the supreme sense, it denotes life, 3507, 9926. To hear the voice of the Lord, denotes instruction concerning the precepts of faith, and reception, 93 1 1 . To hear or hearken, predicated of one hearkening to his parents, denotes obedience from affection, 3684. Hearing pre- dicated of God or the Lord, denotes that he brings aid, 2691 — 2694, 6852; and hence his providence, 3869, 3966; and divine love, 3954. To hear, in the supreme sense, denotes providence ; and to see, fore- sight, sh. 3869, end. To hear, in the internal sense, denotes the will of faith; in the interior sense, obedience, 3869. God has judged me and has also heard my voice, signifies, in the supreme sense, justice and mercy ; in the inmost or internal sense, the holy principle of faith ; in the external sense, the good of life, 3921. The spirits who corre- spond to the sense of hearing are in simple obedience, and are not given to reasonings about things said by others, 4653. Spirits are not always organically or bodily present in the place where they appear to be, ill, by the phenomena of hearing and sight, 1378. Spiritual hearing is perceived in the same sensorium as natural hearing, but it flows in by an internal way, and hence can only be heard by those in whom the internal way is opened, ill. from experience, 1635. Seriatim passages on the correspondence of hearing and of the ear with the grand man, 4652—4660. See Ear. HEART, LUNGS [cor, pulmones]. The heart and the lungs are the sources of all motion in the body, and also of all external action and sensation, 3635. The heart is moved bv influx from the celestial heavens, and corresponds to celestial things, the chief of which is love to the Lord ; the lungs receive influx from the spiritual heavens, and correspond to spiritual things, the chief of which is charity towards the neighbour, 3635. The ancients compared love and charity to the heart, faith to the lungs, 1843. The breast, which contains the heart and lungs, corresponds to divine celestial and divine spiritual love, 3858. There are four general operations from the influx of heaven with man. ] . Into the brain, or the organs of reason there. 2. Into the respira- tion of the lungs. 3. Into the systolic and diastolic motions of the heart. 4. Into the kidneys, 3884. The influx into the heart is by regular pulsations, and the times of the pulse are about three to every respiration ; yet they are so governed that the alternate pulses of the HE A 313 f r*'* heart insinuate themselves into the alternate respirations of the lungs, 3884. It follows, that there is a pulse of the heart and a respiration common to the whole heaven or Grand Man, 3884. The common pulse of the heart and common respiration of heaven were observed by the author ; the latter compared with his respiration was as three to one, 3885. There are numerous less universal pulses and respirations in heaven, according to the societies and to the states of their faith and love, 3886, 3887. The cardiacal pulse of those who belong to the pro- vince of the occiput observed by the author, and particularly of the celestial and spiritual there; the moments of the celestial pulse compared with the spiritual, in this case, were as five to two, 3886. The pulse of the celestial flows into the pulse of the spiritual, and thus goes out and passes into nature, 3886. The discourse of the celestial angels is not heard by the spiritual, but is perceived by them as a pulse of the heart, 3886. In heaven there are two kingdoms, the celestial and the spiritual ; they who are celestial belong to the province of the heart, they who are spiritual to that of the lungs, 3887, 4931. There are two similar kingdoms corresponding to these in the world, consisting of all those who are in good, and the good of faith from the Word, and by whom the church is formed, 9256, especially 9276 and citations. It is the inmost heaven which corresponds to the heart and also to the cerebellum, and the middle heaven that corresponds to the lungs and the cerebrum ; the societies between them correspond to the cardiacal plexus and the medulla oblongata, 9670. The heart rules in the body and all its parts by the blood-vessels, and the lungs by respiration ; hence, in every part of the body there is like an influx of the heart into the lungs, but according to form and state in the parts, 3887. It is from this influx and conjunction that all sensation and action exists in the body ; hence, there is no commencement of corporeal sensation and action until the lungs are opened by birth, 3887. The influx of the heart into the lungs is like the influx of the good of love into the truth of faith, and all sensation and motion in the spiritual world is derived from the latter; hence the correspondence between them, 3887 — 3890. The heart corresponds to the will, which is the subject of good, and respiration to the understanding, 3888, 9050, 9818. Ex- perience concerning the correspondence of the heart with those things which are of love, and of the lungs with those things which are of faith, 3889 : the whole subject seriatim, 3883—3896. The heart has reference to whatever proceeds from the will, and hence good, 4112, 5887, 6578 ; the lungs, the respiration, or spirit, to the understanding, 5887, 9818. Heart, in the genuine sense, denotes the good of celes- tial love ; in the opposite sense, evil, or the infernal love of self, 7272, 7542, 8135, 8288. The heart denotes the will, or the love, which makes the life itself; hence, it denotes what is inmost, ill, 7542. Whatever is said to enter into the heart, or come from the heart, is predicated of the will, ill, md sh, 8910, briefly 9113, 9114. Heart and soul, which are so often mentioned in the Word, denote the life of love and the life of faith, ill, and sh, 9050, 9818 ; or the new will and the new understanding, 2930, ill, by the implantation of truth, forming as it were new fibres, 3470. Heart is predicated of the divine good or mercy ; soul, of the divine truth with man, 9050. The re- ciprocal communication between good in the will and truth in the - -♦ 314 HE A understanding is as that of the heart and lungs, ill, 9300, briefly ill. 9495. The motion of the heart and the forces of the cerebellum are not subject to the control of the will, but rule the voluntary forces, keep them within limits, and continually restore the order and arrange- ment which are disturbed by the action of the will, ill, 9683. The heart denotes the will ; to speak to the heart, influx into the will, and hence confidence, 6578. From the heart and soul, denotes from all the will and understanding, 2930. To be in the heart, denotes what is internal and proceeds from good ; to be in the mouth, what is external and proceeds from truth, 3313. The heart supported with nourishment, denotes the celestial state with somewhat natural adjoined to it, 2166. The heart not set to a thing denotes inattention or disobedience, 7342. The heart hardened and fixed denotes obstinacy predicated of evil. 7272, 7300, 7305, 7338, 8135. The heart failing denotes fear, 5501, which precedes a change of state, 3718, 4249, 4256, 4341, 5662, 5681. Ihe heart converted or turned, denotes a mutation of state, 8143. rhe heart stolen away denotes a change of state as to good, or the will deprived of what is dear to it, 41 12, 41 13, 4133. A clean heart, denotes the will averse to evil ; a broken spirit and a broken heart, a state of temptation both in the will and understanding, 9818. Anx- iety IS predicated of the heart or will ; anger or vexation of the under- standing, 5887, 5888. They whose hearts are elate cannot receive good, 2715, ill, by worship, 9377. Pharoah in the heart of the sea, denotes the evil unable to emerge from the falses of the love of self, 8288. The names of the sons of Israel carried upon his heart by Aaron, denotes the eternal preservation of all good and truth from divme love, 9900—9902. Generally, that the heart denotes the love and the will, 10,156, ill, 10,336. See Love, Will, Good, Soul, Respiration. When man is raised up into eternal life the province of the heart is kept by celestial angels, 170 — 176. HEAT [(Bstus], See Fire. HEAVEN [coelum], I. The want of knowledge concerning heaven. How very general and gross the ideas are that are usually entertained concerning heaven and its happiness ; examples from experience, 449 458. Some suppose heaven to be on high, and that its happiness con- sists in ruling what is beneath them ; but heaven is everywhere where there is love and charity, thus it is not on high but within man, 450 ; ill. 8153, from experience 3884. Some suppose heaven to consist in the exercise of sovereign power ; but heaven is the Lord's kingdom and all such are rebels against his authority, 451. Some are so gross as to suppose that the mere admission into heaven, as by a door, pro- cures them heavenly happiness, 453. Some suppose that it consists in a life of ease and in being served by others, but all the felicity of the angels is from an active life of use and the goods of charity, 454, 6410. Some suppose that it consists in a lumen of glory surroundin'o- them like the golden rays of the sun, but they could not long endure the tedium of such a state. Abb, Some suppose that it consists in praisino- and celebrating the Lord, but the Lord has no need of praise, but desires the goods of charity, and gives felicity according to such goods, 456. Some suppose that heaven is alike for every one, but no two have a heaven exactly similar, yet all their varieties are so arranged as to make one ; the various joys reckoned to the number of four hun- HE A 315 Ju dred and seventy-eight in the first heaven, 457. Nearly all are igno- rant what heaven is, and that it consists in mutual love and its satisfac- tions, 537, 540, 547. 2. General form of doctrine concerning heaven in the seriatim passages, 10,714 — 10,724. Love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour make heaven, as their opposites, which are the loves of self and the world, make hell, 2041, 3610, 4225, 4776, 6210, 7255, 7366, 7369, 7490, 8232, 8678, 10,455, 10,741—10,747. Love and faith constitute life, 10,714. The love of good and the faith of truth make the life of heaven, as their opposites the life of hell, 10,715. The divine proceeding of the Lord makes heaven, and heaven is with every one according to the reception of love and faith from him ; such also come into heaven after death, 10,716, 10,717. They who have heaven in themselves will good to all for the sake of good and truth ; they who have hell in themselves are in the will of evil, 10,718. Heaven is in the internal, thus in thought and will, and therefrom in the external, but it does not consist in the external without the internal, 10,719. In the other life the internal is laid open, whereby it is rendered evident whether heaven or hell is in it, 10,720. The love of the Lord and the neighbour, and the faith thence derived, which make heaven, are both from the Lord; and they have in them heavenly felicity, 10,721, 10,722. In the heavens there is a communion of all goods ; the peace, the intelligence, the wisdom and the felicity of all are communicated to every one, and of every one to all, yet in every case according to recep- tion ; hence their so great happiness, 10,723. They who are in the loves of self and the world do not apprehend these things, and that the happiness derived from them exceeds all human understanding, 10,724. 3. Admittance into heaven. No one can be admitted into heaven unless there is some innocence in him, 4797. It is dangerous for any one who is not interiorly prepared to come into heaven, 537 — 539, 784. The evil cannot even approach heaven, or endure the presence of an angel; the case of a certain adulterer, 539, 1271, 1397, 1398. The infernals cannot enter heaven on account of the contrariety of spheres, 10,187. They who are in the life of evil, cannot even be prepared for heaven by instruction and eye-witness of its state, for when man has entered the other life there is nothing in the understanding but what flows from the will, 2401. They who are principled in good are ad- mitted into heaven, some more slowly, some more quickly, and some immediately after death, 317—319, 1112. In some instances the external senses and faculties of souls recently come into the world of spirits are laid asleep, that they may be admitted into heaven for a short season, 1 982. They who are upright, but who are ignorant of the nature of heavenly happiness, are not elevated into heaven before they are instructed in the knowledges of good and truth, briefly, 189, ilL 1802. They are first admitted into the paradisiacal heavens, which exceed all human imagination, and they are instructed that heaven does not consist in such things ; then they are admitted into states of interior gladness ; then into the state of peace in heaven ; and at length into the inmost sense of its innocence, 540, 544. Admission into heaven is nothing but reception in some angelic society, which goes on to eternity; what is meant, therefore, in the parable, by the door being closed, by their wanting oil in their lamps, and knocking, &c., 2130. The pro- 316 HE A cess of admission into heaven appears like a progress from one society to another, until they are conducted from their own freedom to one which accords with their state as to mutual love, 2130, 2131. In heaven there are both rich and poor ; how it is to be understood there- fore that the miserable and they who have suffered persecutions shall enter heaven, 2129. The state of those who come into heaven after vastations described, 2699. That evils and falses are removed from them, 9330. That the being rejected from heaven and cast into hell, in consequence of not having on a wedding garment, denotes the state of the deceitful and hypocritical, 2132 ; see below, 9961. 4. The happiness and peace of heaven. There are not only distinct degrees of happiness in heaven, but they are such that the inmost hap- piness of one degree is scarcely equal to the most outward of another, 543. The softness and sweetness of heavenly happiness, and the ineffable variety with which it is perceived exceeds all description; from experience, 545, 546. In heaven there is a most exquisite percep- tion and communication of all thought and affection, thus the happiness of each is imparted to all, and of all to each, 549, 10,723. The happi- ness of heaven increases according to the increase of numbers, because the unanimity thus becomes stronger, 2130. The happiness of heaven consists in doing good without a thought of recompense, and it vanishes as soon as the idea of reward enters, ill. 6391, sh, 6392. Heavenly happiness is derived from heavenly loves, and flows from the interiors towards the body ; how rarely it is perceived in the body in consequence of other delights obstructing, 6408. All gladness and happiuess in heaven, even to the least particular, flows in from the Lord, from ex- perience, 551, 552; and seriatim, 449—459, 537—546, 547—553. Peace in heaven is from the divine inmostly affecting all good and truth in those that dwell there with blessedness, thus its effects commence from the inmost and first substances in a manner which is incompre- hensible to man, 92, 3780, 5662, 8455, 8665. Peace in heaven is like the spring-time or day-dawn on earth, which does not affect by sensible varieties but by a universal sweetness flowing into all percep- tion, and imbuing every object, 5662. It is impossible to describe the peace of heaven by any comparison with the contentment, tranquillity, and gladness experienced in this world, for it exceeds all sense, 8456. The state of heaven is compared to a marriage, because conjugial love is heaven itself with man, and is the fundamental of all loves ill, 9961. ' 5. The distinction of heaven into kingdoms and societies. The whole heaven is distinguished into two kingdoms called celestial and spiritual, 3887, 4138. The celestial kingdom is formed by the superior heavens; the spiritual by the inferior, 10,068. The inferior heavens are bom from the superior like sons from a father, 10,068, and cita- tions. The two kingdoms are conjoined together by angelic societies, called celestial-spiritual, 6435, from experience, 4047. The spirituai kingdom is preserved in order by the celestial, by the medium of which it receives influx from the Lord, 3969, 6366. There are three distinct heavens ; the inmost or third, which is the habitation of angels ; the middle or second, which is the abode of angelic spirits ; and the ultimate or first, which is the abode of good spirits, 459, 684, 9594, 9741, 10,270. Each of the three heavens is distinguished as celestial and HE A 317 spiritual, 459; or internal and external, 9741. The external of each heaven is as a court introducing to its internal, and the ultimate heaven is as the court of the middle and inmost, ill. 9741. The ultimate heaven is distinguished into many heavens, 4528. The three heavens and their angels are subordinate to one another, but it is not a subordi- nation of empire, for it is not felt or known except when they reflect upon it, 1752, 1802. The three heavens are according to the three senses of the Word, and the three orders of good, celestial, spiritual, and natural, 4279, 4286, 4939, 9933, 9992, 10,005, 10,017, 10,270. They are opened in man according to the life of good ; the first by a life according to the truths of faith from the Word ; the second, by a life according to the goods of charity ; and the third, by the good of niutual love and love to the Lord, 9594. There are infinite varieties in heaven according to the varieties of which these goods are suscep- tible, and their qualification by truths, 684, 699, 960, 3744, 4005, 5598, 7236, 7833, 7836, 9002. It is by its particular good that every society in heaven and every angel in a society is distinguished from all others, 690, 3241, 3519, 3804, 3986, 4067, 4149, 4263, 7236, 7833, 7836. It is by the reception of the good of love from the Lord, whereby the Lord leads them as one man or angel, that the whole heaven, which consists of myriads of societies of angels, is made one, ill. 9613, 457, 3986. It is by their first forms, in a heaven proximate to the Lord, and above the inmost angelic heaven, that the whole human race is conjoined with the Lord, and kept most present with him, 1 999. One heaven also serves for the reception of another, and the last receptacle is man, with whom divine order is in ultimates and through whom it passes into the world, 4618, compare 3739. 6. Good and truth in heaven. The angels of heaven acknowledge all good to be from the Lord, and heaven is formed by good flowing in from him, not by anything of their own, 9338, 10,125, 10,151, 10,157; compare 1802, 3951, 84/8. All good that is good, all truth that is truth, and hence, all peace, love, charity, and faith are from the Lord, and he who does not perceive that it is so cannot be in heaven, 1614, 2016, 2751, 2882, 2883, 2891, 2892, 2904. The arrangement of goods and truths and the arrangement of heaven are the same, for they correspond together; thus a regenerate man is a little heaven, and heaven is a grand man, 1900, 1928, 3584, 3612, 4154, 4302, 5704, 5709, 8370, 9473, 9670, 9673, 9680, 9682, 9683, 9741, 9812. 9873, 9891, 10,270. The heavenly form transcends all intelligence, but divine good proceeding from the Lord creates it, and all affections of good and thoughts of truth flow according to it, 9877, 9931. All things impressed on the memory with the good, and especially on the interior memory, are in the heavenly form, not only the goods and truths of faith, but scientifics, 9931. Truths with a regenerate man are disposed into series according to the arrangement of angelic societies, ill, 10,303. Goods and truths are so real that a spirit is nothing but the goods and truths that a man had acquired in the world, and yet it appears in human form, ill, 10,298. It is good that forms the faces of the angels, and their indefinite varieties are derived from the truths in which goods form themselves, ill, 7236. It is goodness and charity itself which is efiigied in their faces, and their fairness exceeds all human imagination, 553, compare 3080, 3388. All the beatitude and 318 HE A n felicity that man can enjoy in heaven is from good in truth, not from truth only, 2434. Truth itself with the angels, thus, all their wisdom and intelligence are from mutual love and the love of the Lord, for hereby they are in the very principles and springs of all things, thus in ends and causes, 2572. It is according to good, or the genius of the inhabitants for good, that the heavens are arranged and distinguished, and this arrangement extends to the most minute differences, 7833, ill, 7836. The arrangement of the heavens is effected by divine good, 5704. Divine good itself is far above heaven, its proceeding in heaven is called celestial divine good, 8758; see below, 9810, 9995. Divine truth from the Lord makes heaven, 9408; but divine good is contained in divine truth, 8309; see below 9995. The celestial kingdom of heaven is where divine good from which divine truth proceeds is principal ; the spiritual kingdom, where divine truth which contains divine good is principal, ilL and sh,, 5313; ilL and «/^., 5922. The good of the celestial kingdom is the good of love to the Lord ; that of the spiritual kingdom, the good of charity to the neighbour, 3691, 3969, 6435, 9468, 9680, 9780. The two goods that are in the inmost heaven are the good of love to the Lord and the good of mutual love ; those of the middle heaven are the good of charity towards the neighbour and the good of faith, 9468, 9680, 9683, 9780. Internal goods succeed and follow each other in order through the internal and external of the inmost heaven, and through the internal and external of the middle heaven ; inmost of all is the divine good proceeding from the Lord's divine human, which is in the good of love or innocence, ill, 9473, 9741 ; ill. by the stones of the breastplate, 9873. The Lord is present in heaven by influx, and they are its nearest recipients who are in the good of love, more remotely, they who are in the good of charity, and more remotely still, they who are in the good of faith or good of life, 9682. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord and received in the voluntary part is called celestial good, received in the intellectual part spiritual good, 9810, 9811; ill, 9995. The angels of the celestial kingdom are they who receive the divine proceeding in the voluntary part ; the angels of the spiritual kingdom, they who receive it in the intellectual part, 5113, 6367, 8521, 8910, 9811, 9995, 10,124. Celes- tial divine good, which makes the third or inmost heaven, is the good of love to the Lord ; spiritual divine good, which makes the second or middle heaven, is the good of charity towards the neighbour; and natural divine good, which makes the first or ultimate heaven, is the good of faith and obedience, ill. 9812, 10,005, 10,017, 10,270; vari- ously ill, 4279, 4286, 4938, 4939, 9992, 10,068. All truths and goods that are in heaven are from divine truth proceeding from the divine good of the Lord, thus, divine truth received by the angels of the celestial kingdom is called celestial good, and received by the angels of the spiritual kingdom, spiritual good, ill. 9995. The divine proceeding is called truth, because it appears as light to the angels, but the heat is within the light, which makes it good, 9995. The varieties of the states of good and truth in heaven are as the varieties of the states of heat and light in the world ; for heat in heaven is the good of love from the Lord, and light in heaven is the truth of faith from the Lord, 10,200. The infinite variety of heaven consists in the variety of good, and good is formed thus variously by truth, 3744, 4005, 7236, 7833, HE A 319 /836, 9002. The divine good of the Lord is one only good, but it is distinguished into celestial and spiritual from reception, comparatively as heat and light from the sun are varied by the different regions of the earth, &c., 10,261. Influx from the Lord's divine human into the good of the inmost heaven is received immediately ; into the good of the middle heaven it is both immediate and by the mediation of celestial good ; and into the good of the ultimate heaven it is both immediate and mediate, 10,270. See Influx. The only good that reigns univer- sally m heaven is the good of the Lord's merit and justice, thus the divine human, briefly sh., 9486, briefly 9635, ill. and sh., 9715, com- pare 9310. All in heaven are conjoined according to the affinities of goods and truths, for such is the extension of all things of love and taith that the superior heavens are united thereby to the inferior and man with heaven, ill. 9961 . The extension of heaven is to the limit of every one s good, 8794. The Lord is in every man as in his heaven when he is m good with him, for good is the heaven of man, and it is by good that he is associated with the angels of heaven, 8269. 7. Heaven and the human form. The internal man is called heaven, the external earth, 82, 1733. Man is called heaven in the Word, because he becomes a little heaven by regeneration, 1900. Heaven is not in any situation on high, but within man, in whatsoever place he is, from experience, 3884, ill, 8153. Heaven being within man, it is possible for him, when it pleases the Lord, to come into heaven without being separated from the body, 3884. He who receives heaven in himself while he lives in the world, comes into heaven after death, 10,717. The man of the church is a heaven in the least form, for his mteriors are disposed according to the image of heaven in the greatest, and hence to its reception, 911, 978, 1900, 1928, 3624—3631, 3634, o^Qo ^u^' ^^^^' ^^''^' ^^^^' ^^2^' ^^25, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9594, no ^* Heaven is as one man before the Lord, and also the church, ill. 92/6, and citations. The internal of man from his creation is formed to the image of heaven, and the external to the image of the world, 3628, 4523, 4524, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9706, 10,156; 10,472. The Lord alone is a man, and those only are men who receive the divine from him, and so far as they receive it, 1894, 8547. The angels are human forms because they are forms of love and charity, or recipients of divine order from the Lord, and their forms are beautiful and perfect according to the degree of reception, 322, 553, 1880, 1881, 3633, 3804, 4622, 4735, 4797, 4985, 5199, 5530, 6054, 9879, 10,177, 10,594. The form, of heaven is from the angels, 553. The whole heaven corresponds to the divine human of the Lord, and from this correspondence it appears in form like a man when viewed in one com- plex; hence heaven is called the Grand Man, 1276, 2996, 2997, 3624 --3649, 3741—3750, 4218—4228, 4625. In virtue of this form, all the members of the human body are in correspondence with heaven or the Grand Man, from experience, 2996—2998, 3021, 3624—3649, 3741—3750, 3883—3896, 4039—4055, 4218—4228, 4318—4331, 4403—4421, 4523—4533, 4622—4633, 4652—4660, 4791—4805, 4931—4953, 5050—5061, 5171—5189, 5377—5396, 5552—5573, ^711 — 5727, 10,030. The heart and its system corresponds to the celestial kingdom of heaven ; the lungs and its system to the spiritual kingdom, hence in heaven there is also a universal pulse, like that of 320 HE A HE A 321 the heart, and a respiration like that of the lungs, hut interior, 3635, 3884—3887, 9270, 9670. See Heart. The angels of the inmost heaven correspond to the province of the heart and the cerehellum, those of the middle heaven to the province of the lungs and the cere- brum, and those which unite them to the cardiacal plexus and the medulla oblongata, 9670. The celestial kingdom corresponds to the voluntary faculty of man as receptive of good ; the spiritual kingdom to the intel- lectual faculty as receptive of truth, 983r). The three heavens into which these kingdoms are discriminated correspond to as many degrees of life in man, and hence they are opened in him after death according to his life, 3717, 9.")9 I. The head corresponds to the highest of the three heavens, the body to the middle and the feet to the lowest, 4938, 10,005. The brain is formed in correspondence with the fluxion of heaven, and its interior form ; hence man is the only medium by which there is ascent from the world into the heavens, and descent from the heavens into the world, 4040 — 4042, compare 3884. The affections and thoughts of man, when he is in order, flow according to the stupen- dous form of heaven, 9877, 9931. Heaven, properly so called, is the divine proceeding formed in its recipients, and constituting the common form thereof, which is that of a man, 7268, compare 4724, 9144, 10,196. See Man. 8. The Lord in heaven. In the whole heaven, they acknowledge no other father than the Lord in whom is the Divine Trinity, 14, 15, 1729, 2004, 3038, 5256, 9303. This trinity consists in the divine itself which is called Father, the divine human which is called Son, and the divine proceeding which is called the Holy Spirit, 2149, 2156, 2288, 2321, 2329, 2447, 3704, 6993, 7182, 9303, 10,738, 10,822, 10,823. It is the divine human by which the divine flows-in into heaven and makes heaven, 3038, ill. 7211, compare 2288, 2329. Whatever is received from the Lord is divine, and the divine of the Lord makes heaven, 10,716, 10,721. The universal heaven has refer- ence to the Lord, and hereby derives all its order and union and felicity, 551. The Lord is the common centre of heaven, and all the angels are in aspect with him, and thus in his presence, 3633, ill. 9489, 9828, 9864, 10,130, 10,146, 10,189, 10,420, 10,702. All who are out of heaven turn their faces away from the Lord, 9864, 10,130. It is not the angels who turn their faces to the Lord, but the Lord who turns them to him, 10,189. It is not the Lord who is absent from the evil, but the evil are absent from the Lord, ill. 10,146. It is not the good that are present with the Lord, but the Lord who is present with them because they receive him, 9415. The presence and conjunction of the Lord with the angels is according to the reception of his holy pro- ceeding, or the good of love and charity from him, 681, 904, 2658, 2886—2889, 3001, 3741—3743, 4198, 4206, 4211, 4320, 4525, 6832, 7042, 7211, 8819, 9128, 9680, 9682, 9683, 10,106. There is no con- junction with the divine itself in heaven, but only with the divine human, 4211, 4724. There is no other heaven but that of the Lord, and though evil spirits seek another they do not find it, 458, 2751, 7086. The Lord is the all in heaven and the life of heaven, 721 1. All power in heaven and in earth is the Lord's, for as he governs heaven, he governs all things that depend therefrom, 1607, 2026, 4523, 4524, 10,089, 10,827. The angels of heaven acknowledge all good to be \ from the Lord, and that he dwells in his own with them and not in their proprium, 9338, 10,12.5, 10,151, 10,157, compare 3951. When angels are mentioned in the Word, the Lord or somewhat divine is understood, and from the reception of the divine proceeding they are called gods, 1925, 2821, 3039, 4085, 4295, 4402, 7268, 7873, 8192, 8301, 10,528. All who are in heaven, and thus with the Lord are also said to be in the Lord, 3637, 3638 ; observe in particular 2520. The Lord is the sun of heaven and appears as a sun, 1053, 3636, 3638, 3641, 4060, 5097, 8644. The divine good, proceeding from the Lord as a sun, surrounds all heaven, every society in heaven, and every particular angel, 9490 and following numbers, compare 9534. See Sphere. The Lord ap[)ears as a sun to those who are in his celestial kingdom or in love to him, and as a moon to those who are in his spiritual kingdom or charity to the neighbour, 1053, 1521, 1529, 1531, 1837, 1861, 3636, 4696, 7083, 7173, 7270, 8812, 9684, 10,130, 10,809. He ap- pears as a sun at a middle altitude before the right eye, and as a moon before the left eye, 1531, 4321, 7078, 9684. Where he appears as a suu is the east of heaven, where he appears as a moon, the south, 9684. The divine plenum or proceeding in heaven is not the divine itself of the Lord, for that is far above heaven, 7270, 8760. The love first proceeding from the fire of the Lord's love does not enter heaven, but appears like a radiant belt around the sun, 7270. The angels are veiled as with a thin cloud, lest the influx of the ardent love of the Lord should injure them, 6849. The influx from the Lord proceeds immediately to each heaven, and also mediately by one heaven into another, 9682, 9683. The divine proceeding in the spiritual kingdom is like the divine in the celestial, but it is unlike as to reception, 10,068. The Lord appears to every one, whether in heaven or out of heaven, according to their own quality, 1861, 4198, ill, 4206. The Lord as to the divine itself which is called the father, and as to the divine human which is called the son, is divine love or good, but the Lord as heaven which is below the Lord as a sun, is divine truth, 10,196. The divine truth proceeding from the Lord in heaven is Man ; hence heaven is a Grand Man, and this from influx and correspondence, 9144 and citations, compare 4724. The sun of heaven, like the sun of the world, is immoveable and makes no change of state by any circumgyration of its own ; all its apparent mutations are from the states of the angels, 8812, compare 2242. See Lord. A glorification of the Lord heard in heaven, 2133. 9. Conjunction of heaven with the world, ^c. All things that are in the world and its three kingdoms correspond to the celestial things that are in hearen, or the things of the natural world to the things of the spiritual, 1632, 1881, 2758, 2896, 2987—3003, 3213—3227, 3349, 3483, 3624—3649, 4044, 4053, 4366, 4939, 5116, 5377, 9280, and citations of seriatim passages. Everything in nature and the world is produced by the influx and presence of the things of the heavenly world, 1632, 1881, 3349, 3483, 4044. Such influx illustrated, 3219, 5119, 5259, 5427, 5428, 5477, 6322, 91 10, 91 1 1. By the correspon- dence between them, the natural world is conjoined with the spiritual, 5377, 8615. In virtue of this correspondence all nature is a theatre representative of the Lord's kingdom, 2758, 3000, 3483, 4939, 9280. Tlie universal principles to which all things in heaven and the world that \ \ 322 HE A HE A 323 'II are united by correspondence have reference, are good and truth, 2451, 3166; i7/. 3704, 4390, 4409, 5232, 7256, 10,122, 10,555. The Word is written by mere correspondences, and hence all its contents to the most minute signify things heavenly and spiritual, 1401—1405, 1408, 1409, 1540, 1619, 1659, 1709, 1783, 2567, 2763, 2894—2900, 3349 and cita- tions, 3472—3485, 4116, 8615, 9086, 10,687. In virtue of the corre- spondences by which it is written, the Word is accommodated both to angels and men, 1767—1776, 1887, 2157, 2275, 2333, 2395, 2540, 2541, 2545, 7381, 8862, 10,322. Hence the Word is the means of con- junction between heaven and the human race, 8615, 9408, and citations ; 10,131, 10,687, compare 5427, 5428, 5477. Heaven and man are conjoined by the good of love and charity prevailing with those who receive the Word, 9276, 9817. The conjunction is effected by the medium of the internal sense as a whole and by its least particulars, 10,375, 10,632—10,634. Angelic minds are thus conjoined to human minds in so strict a bond that they act as one, 9216. Unless heaven were thus conjoined with the world, the human race would perish, for heaven would recede from them, 10,452, 10,632—10,634. The pre- dictions that heaven shall perish or pass away at the last day, and that there shall be a new heaven and a new earth, have reference to the Lord's kingdom and its renewal, 1733, 1850, 2117, 2118. Man was so created that he might be in heaven with the angels and the angels with him, at the same time that he is in the world amongst men, 1880. The men of the most ancient church had com- munication with heaven, but when man became corporeal heaven was closed to him, 784, 1880. Angels and spirits are still present with man as the means of his connection with heaven and the world of spirits, and no one could live unless he were so connected, 687, 697, 2796, 2886, 2887, 5846—5865, 5976—5993. The connection of angels and spirits with man is manifest to him when he comes into the other life, for the societies with which he had lived in conjunction are then shewn to him, 687. Such is the conjunction of heaven with man that the whole of his life flows in by heaven from the Lord, ill, 9276 and citations. It is the light of the sun of heaven that illuminates the understanding of man and makes him rational, 3138, 3167, 4408, 6608, 8707, 9399, 10,569. It is heat from the sun of heaven which is the vital heat of man, proceeding from his interiors, 2146, 5215, 6314, 7324. 10. Appearances, ^c, in heaven. All light in heaven is from the Lord as a sun, and is his proceeding divine truth, 1053, 1521, 3195, 3323, 3341, 3636, 3643, 4415, 5400, 8644, 9399, 9548, 9684, 10,809. The state of light in heaven is according to the intelligence and wisdom of the angels, 1524, 1529, 1530, 3339. The differences of light in heaven are as manifold as the angelic societies, for the varieties of good and truth, thus of wisdom and intelligence, in heaven are perpetual, 4414, supported by 684, 690, 3241, 3744, 3745, 5598, 7236, 7833, 7836. All heat in heaven is from the Lord as a sun, and it manifests itself to the internal man by spiritual loves and affections, 3338, 3636, 3643, 5215, 6314. The changes of state as to illustration and percep- tion in heaven are comparatively like the times of day in the world, 5672, 5962, 6310, 8426, 9213, 10,605. There is no state corre- sponding to night in heaven, but only like the morning twilight, which is from the proprium of the angels, 6110. In heaven one state is never altogether like another, and hence the perfection of the angels, 10,200, which increases to eternity, 4803, 6648, In heaven the idea of eternity has nothing in common with the idea of time, for the angels think without any idea of time and space, 3404 ; illustrations and reasons, 1274, 1382, 3356, 4882, 4901, 6110, 7218, 7381. Place and space in heaven are appearances according to the interior states of the angels, or the affinities of thought and affection, 5605, 9440, 10,146. All things which appear with the angels are representatives, and heaven is full of them, 1521, 1532—1534, 1619, 1971,3213—3226,3475,3485, 9481, 9576, 9577. The ultimate heaven is in the representatives of the Word, 4442. Representatives from the superior heavens appear in the ultimate heaven, hence there is a heaven there corresponding to the chamber of the eye, &c., 4528. Representatives in heaven are more beautiful in proportion as they are more interior, 3475. Representa- tives or appearances in heaven are more real and living than similar things in the world, 3485. The beautiful colours which appear in heaven are the variations or modifications of its light ; thus they are appearances of truth from good, 1042, 1043, 1053, 1624, 3993, 4530, 4677, 4742, 4922, 9466. The garments in which angels and spirits appear clothed are according to truths with them, thus according to their intelligence, 165, 297, 5248, 5954, 9212, 9216, 9814, 9952, 10,536: but in the inmost heaven, where they are innocences, they appear naked, 154, 165, 297, 2736, 3887, 8375, 9814, 9960. In heaven there, are cities, palaces, and houses in which the angels dwell in more or less magni- ficence, according to the correspondence of their state, 1116, 1626— 1631, 4622. In heaven there appear mountains, hills, rocks, vales, and lands, in all respects Hke similar things in the world, 10,438, 10,608. Upon the mountains dwell the angels who are in the good of love, upon the hills those who are in the good of charity, and upon the rocks they who are in the good of faith, 10,438, 10,608. The form of heaven is so stupendous as to exceed all human intelligence, but the fluxion of the human brain, its thoughts and affections, are in the same order, 4040—4043, 6607, 9877. Extension and gravity do not exist in heaven, but only their appearances, originating from states of good and truth in the superior heavens, 5658. There is an extension of the all of love and the all of faith from society to society in heaven, also from one heaven into another, and from heaven to man, 9961. All the societies of heaven constantly preserve their situation, and their situation is determined by their differences of love and faith, 1274, 3638, 3639. All in heaven turn themselves to their loves, and the quarters there begin and are determined from the face, 10,130, 10,189, 10,420, 10,702. The eastern quarter is in front, forward from the sun ; the south to the right hand, the north to the left, and the west behind, and this in whatever direction the angels turn themselves, 10,189. All consociation and presence of one with another in heaven is according to similarity of loves, and all absence according to dissimilitudes, 10,L 0. The states of their life in heaven are communicated and transferred into others by the sight and also by the touch of the hand, 10,130. All such communications and also their reception or rejection is accord- ing to the loves of those who communicate and of those who receive, 10,130. The communication of thought and desire when it is willed Y 2 / W H ■ ■ ^n t ■ - »( K » L ^1 ■99pif^e 324 HEB HEB 325 that another should do anything, is in place of command in heaven, for all desire of government in heaven is from the love of serving, 5/32. Subordination in heaven is according to intelligence and wisdom, for the love of good makes every one defer to those who are more in the wisdom of good and intelligence of truth than themselves, 7773. All power in heaven is the power of truth derived from good received from the Lord, and such is its potency that one angel prevails against thousands of infernal spirits, 10,182, 10,019 and citations. Evil spirits cannot remain in consort with angels, for they cannot respire with them, 3894. The respiration of the angels is various according to their various states of love, 1119, 3833—3895. The respiration of the angels is like the respiration of man, but interior, 3884, 3885, 3891, 3893. See Heart, Respiration, Speech. The heavens in the other world, when mani- fested according to the state of intelligence and wisdom with the angels, appear like the starry heavens in this world ; hence the heaven of angels is meant by heaven in the Word, ill. and sh. 9408. The ancients had no other idea of the visible heaven than as the habitation of angels, 9408. There is a fluxion or gyration of all the societies of heaven according to its interior form, which exceeds all human understanding ; and that it is imperceptible, like that of the earth about its axis, 4041. How immense heaven is, 1610, 1810; and that the inhabitants of myriads of earths could not fill it to eternity, 10,784. HEAVY, TO MAKE \ingravare]. See Hard. HEAVY, TO MAKE THE HEART [oggravare cor]^ denotes obsti- nacy arising from what is false ; to harden the heart, obstinacy from what is evil, 7615, 7616. See Hard. HEAVY, HEAVINESS [grave, gravedo]. Evil of its own nature is heavy and gravitates to hell ; and falses are heavy from the evil within them, 8279, 8298. Heaviness and pains of the body are occasioned by influx from the hells, ilL from experience, 5714, 5715, 5723, 5177. The hand of Moses heavy, denotes the power of looking upwards to the Lord deficient, or a faith tending downwards, 8608, compare 10,330. Heavy (or slow) of speech, &c., predicated of Moses, denotes a state incapable of immediate influx, 6985. Heavy (or rich) in cattle, and in silver and gold, denotes the abundance of goods and truths, 1549 — 1551. A heavy (or grievous) famine, signifies their deficiency even to desolation. 5281, 5576, 6110. Generally, weight and measure, or gravity and extension, in a good sense, denote the state as to good and truth, ill. 5658. A woman heavy with child, denotes the state in which the formation of good from truth is proceeding, ill, 9042, 1944, 4904. HEBREW TONGUE. See Language. HEBREWS [Hebrcei]. On the decline of the Noatic or first an- cient church, a new church, or kind of external worship, was established in Syria by Eber, 1238, 1241, 4680. This system was permitted to be established because the ancient church had declined to idolatry, and with some to magic, 1241, 4680. It consisted in external worship in groves and high places, a priesthood, sacrifices, &c., 1241, 4680. It is called the second ancient church, and the third which succeeded it was the beginning of the Jewish church, 1241, 1285, 1343, 5136, 6738. All who adopted the worship instituted by Eber are called Hebrews, 1343, 4517, as well as the families descended from Eber, ir 1246. The Hebrews were distinguished from all other nations, who had forgotten the name of Jehovah in consequence of the prevalence of idolatry, by acknowledging it as the name of their God, sh. 1343. The acknowledgment of Jehovah and the institution of sacrifices con- stituted the two essentials of their worship, 1343. The ancient He- brew church, as well as the first ancient church and the most ancient, was a long time in the land of Canaan, and hence the inhabitants of Canaan in general were called Hebrews, 4516, 4517. For the same reason, the land or earth of the Hebrews denotes the church, and Hebrews those who belong to the church, 5136, 5236, 6738, 7099. In the time of Jacob, the Hebrew church had become idolatrous, but it still remained in its integrity with some, who are signified by the Canaanite and the Perizzite, 4517. The first ancient church, instituted after the flood, was a representative church, but it was desolated by declining to faith alone, and in Egypt, Babylon, and elsewhere, its representatives were turned into magic ; the Hebrew church was then begun in Syria and Mesopotamia, and also among some nations in the land of Canaan, 4680, 6738. The Hebrew church differed froni the former representative church in regarding sacrifices as the essential of worship ; and though they acknowledged charity, it was not in heart, 4680. When the Hebrew church had become idolatrous, the external worship of the ancient church was restored with the posterity of Jacob, but without its internal, for they were altogether opposed to charity, 4680. The representatives thus instituted were not exactly the same as those of the ancient church, but for the most part like those of the Hebrew church, in which burnt-offerings and sacrifices originated, 4874. The internal of the church could not be conjoined with these representatives of the Hebrew church in the same manner as with the representatives of the former, 4874. On account of its com- paratively external character, the epithet Hebrew is applied when ser- vitude in any way is predicated ; hence, Abram is called the Hebrew where he represents the rational man serving the internal, 1 702, sh. 1703, 1741, ill. 8974. Joseph also is called a Hebrew man by the wife of Potiphar, because those who are in good and truth, natural not spiritual, regard the latter as a servant, 5013. The Egyptians abominated the Hebrews and treated them as servants, because the latter represented those who were of the church, and thus in genuine order; the Egyptians, those who were in the inverse or opposite order, 5013, particularly 5701, 5702. Joseph called a Hebrew boy by the butler of Pharoah, denotes one who is born anew in the church, 5236. Hebrew women performing the office of midwives, denotes the natural mind with those belonging to the church, receptive of the goods and truths which are excluded or produced from the internal, 6673, 6675, 6678, 6683, 6687, compare 4588. A Hebrew servant denotes those who are in truths of doctrine and not in the corresponding good, ill. 8974. They are Hebrew servants who learn the truths of the church from no delight, but only because they expect salvation by them, they also correspond to those who are only in the entrance of heaven or skin of the Grand Man, 8977. . xt i HEBRON [Chebron]. The oak-groves of Mamre m Hebron sig- nify the state of perception when knowledges are implanted, ill. 1616. This state being more interior than perception from mere scientifics, 326 HEI HEL 327 p K II signified by the oak-grove of Moreh, the word occurs in the plural, 1616. The oak-groves of Mamre, the Amorite, denote the state of perception of the rational man ; his being called the brother of Eschkol and Aner, denotes the state of the external as to what is rational, or good and truth therein, 1705, 1/52, 1754. See Aner, Sodom. The oak-groves of Mamre denote the perception from the first formation of rational things out of scientifics, and therefore inferior, though higher than perception from mere scientifics, 2144, 2145. Hebron, where they were situated, denotes the church ; called Hebron as to good, and Kiriath-Arba, as to truth, 2909, 2981, 4613, 4715. Kiriath-Arba or Hebron, represented the church before it was re- presented by Jerusalem; it was inhabited by the Anakim, whose destruction by Joshua represented its consummation, sh, 2909. It then represented a new church until David removed from it and went to Jerusalem, 2901, 2981, but especially 2909. Mamre in Hebron denotes the quantity and quality of the state to which it is adjoined, 2970, 4613, 6456. Hebron, inasmuch as it represents the good of the church, represents also the divine good of the Lord's divine natural, 4614. Abram's dwelling in Hebron represents the Lord's coming to a state of more interior perception in consequence of the presence of this good, 1616, 1704, 2144, 2145. The death of Sarah in Kiriath- Arba, which is Hebron, denotes a state of night as to the truths of faith, 2908, 2909; her burial in the cave of Machpelah, which is before Mamre in Hebron, the resuscitation of truth or regeneration, thus the rise of a new church, 2901, 2902, 2910, and sequel. See Machpelah. The Hittites, with whom Abraham bargained for her burial-place, denote the Gentiles with whom the new church is raised up, 2913, 2928, 2940, 2975, 2986, 3470, 3620. See Heth. HEEL [calcaneum]. See Foot. HEIFER [juvenca]. Oxen and bullocks signify natural goods; cows and heifers, natural truths, 5198. In the opposite sense, kine denote falses in the natural, 5202. See Calf, Ox, Herd. HEIGHTS, or high PLACES [exceUa]. The custom of sacri- ficing upon heights, or high places, took its rise from the worship of the most ancient church, 796. High places signify worship, 2466 ; and worship on high places was holy so long as the church retained its simplicity, 2722. See Grove, High, Mountain. HEIK [kisres]. They are heirs of the Lord's kingdom who be- come regenerate, and thus receive life from the Lord, 1799. It is the opening of the internal man that constitutes heirship ; they who are only external therefore are not heirs, 1802. Man first becomes an heir when he comes into the affection of good, or mutual love, for this is the vital principle itself, which he receives from the essence of the Lord as from his father, 1802. To inherit, when predicated of the Lord, is to have the life of the Father ; when predicated of man, to receive life from the Lord, 2658. Inheritance is predicated both of good and of truth, but with a difference in the expression which may be translated *to possess hereditarily' and *to inherit,* 2658. To in- herit and to receive or possess hereditarily is to have the life of the Lord, thus, heaven, 2658, 2851, 3672, 7212, 9338. To inherit the gate of one's haters or enemies, is predicated of charity and faith suc- ceeding in the place of what is evil and false, 2851, 3187. See Gate. 1 I r i\ To inherit the land of thy pilgrimage is predicated of the life of in- struction in charity and faith, 3672. To receive the inheritance of heaven denotes the life of the Lord, or good from him, 7212, 9338. The inheritance of ages denotes eternal life in heaven, 10,447. The inheritance of Jehovah denotes the reception of the life of heaven by good from the Lord, thus the church, 10,630. Aaron and the Levites had no inheritance assigned them with the rest of the people of Israel, because the people represented heaven and the church, and the priest- hood the good of love and faith, thus the Lord with them ; and the Lord is with his people but does not rank among them, 9809, compare 6148. No longer any portion and inheritance for us in the house of our father, denotes that there is no longer any conjunction of the things predicated, 4097. As to hereditary evil, see Evil. HELL [infernum.'] 1 . Generally, Men have no clear and distinct idea concerning hell, and this because they are ignorant of the life of spirits, their exquisite sensations, &c., 692, 969. The sensitive Ufe of spirits is real with the good, and not real with the evil, who are them- selves mere phantasies when viewed in the light of heaven ; yet to them all things in hell are real, ill. 4623. Hell and damnation consist in evil, and when it is known what evil is, it may be known what hell is, 6206, 7155, 7181, 8918. As love to the Lord and the neighbour make heaven, so hatred makes hell, and the hells are as innumerable as the species of hatred, 693. As heaven makes one man, and re- gards one end by mutual love, so hell makes one devil, and regards one end by the endeavour to destroy and damn all to eternity, 694, 3642, 6605 ; see below, 4532, 6605. In hell they desire nothing more than to punish, torture, and torment one another, which they have the art of accomplishing far beyond what is possible in the body, 695. All in hell are kept bound in society by their own lusts and phantasies, which enable them to act as one against truth and good ; when this common bond is loosened they cruelly assail one another, 695, 1322. To be let down into hell is not to be transferred from one place to another, but to be remitted into some infernal society, man remaining in the same place, from experience, 699. To be cast into hell is to be hemmed round and beset with the falses of evil, and hell torment is from the evils and falses themselves, 8232. The lamentable state of the wicked in hell is occasioned by the return of all the states of man in the other life ; for there, hatreds, however concealed, break out openly, &c., 823. The variety of states in hell, and the scenes there, are indefinite, 969. The malice and cunning of infernal spirits are incredible, 6666. Unless punishments accrued to the infernals they could not be kept in any hell to eternity, but would infest the good, and infringe the order established by the Lord, 967. The Lord in no case casts any one into hell, but they are precipitated into hell by the nature of evil itself, 696, 1683. Divine good judges all to heaven, but divine truth or the laws of order, condemn all to hell, because they separate themselves from good, 2258, 2335, 2447, 2769. They who are in falses and evils are not governed according to order, or the good pleasure of the Lord, but from order, 4839, 7877. The Lord rules the hells by the law of opposites, 3642 ; see below, 7643. The hells, though they are innumerable, are kept in order by the medium of celestial angels, and also immediately by the Lord himself, 6370. M 328 HEL HEL 329 I Angels have dominion over evil spirits, ill, 1755. There is subordina- tion in hell itself, but it is that of empire resembling a confederation of enemies or band of robbers, and is maintained by the most cruel punishments, 777'S, 8232. See Government. Angels are sent to moderate the torments of those who are in hell, 967. The evil devas- tate themselves when heaven flows in, which the Lord is continually arranging in order, by rushing into the opposite evils and falses, 7643. By this operation the hells arrange themselves, and take up a situation according to the degree of their evil, 7679, 7681. The Lord arranges the heavens and the new-comers there by the influx of good and truth, which also passes to the evil, and is turned by them into the opposite ; hence divine truth prevailing in heaven produces a new state among those who infest heaven, which is signified by darkness, 7710. The darkness of hell is from the falses of evil, 3340, 4418, 4531. The fire of hell is the loves of self and the world, and all the concupiscences of those loves, 1861, 5071 and citations, 6314, 6832, 7575 and citations, 8232, 10,747. Darkness and cold are predicated of hell in opposition to the vernal heat and light of heaven ; still they have an obscure lumen in hell as from a coal fire, and also a heat, but it is un- clean, 1773, 3340, 3643, 4418, 4531. See Fire, Darkness, Cold. They who are in hell appear in their own light like men, but in the light of heaven according to their proper quality, like monsters, 4532, 4533, 4674, ill. 4839, 5057, 5058, 6605, 6626. The whole hell ap- pears as a horrid monster, not in a human form, the same is true of every society and individual in a society, with a difl'erence according to the degree of evil, &c., 6605, 6626. Evil spirits are known from their faces, and because their evils are hereby effigied, it is also known with what hells they communicate, 4798. The hells are removed from heaven by their inability to sustain the presence of divine love from the Lord, 4299, 7519, 7738, 7989, 8265, 9327. In consequence of this contrariety of state the hells are most remote from heaven, and this is meant by the great gulf, 9346, 10,187. Hell is situated in a profound depth, at the greatest distance from the sun of heaven, 8306. The hells have a constant situation beneath the soles of the feet, and all appearance to the contrary is from some persuasive phantasy, 3640. All in hell, as well as all in heaven, appear erect upon their feet, but the former are in a contrary position to the latter, the head being downwards and the feet upwards, 3641. The opposite state of hell exemplified by thought and speech, how good and truth are changed into evil and the false when it enters the sphere of hell, 3642, 4632. All who are principled in love to the Lord and the neighbour are in the Grand Man, for they are in the Lord, and hence in heaven, all who are principled in the love of self and the world are out of the Grand Man, and consequently in hell, 4225. The inhabitants of hell cannot ascend into heaven, because they cease to respire when they draw near it, and come into torment, and then cast themselves down headlong, 4225 ; from the experience of some recently deceased, 4226. They cannot ascend higher than the last boundaries of heaven, for as soon as they perceive the Lord*s presence, they come into the evils of vastation, and thus into damnation, 7926 ; but that the Lord is pre- sent even in hell, 2706. Observe here that all the region of heaven, into which the spiritual were afterwards elevated, was occupied by evil m genii and spirits before the coming of the Lord, but that they were then expelled, 6306, 6858, fully «//. 6914 ; and that the insurgent hells were previously open, 8273. The Lord, therefore, at his coming fought against the hells from his own proper power, and by subjugating them and glorifying his humanity saved man from inevitable damnation, 1692, 1820, 2776, 2795, 2819 and passages cited seriatim, 4287 ditto, 4307, 7193, 8099, 8273, 9528 and citations, 9937, 10,367 and passages cited seriatim, 10,655. See Lord, Temptation. The hells would always have prevailed unless the human of the Lord had been altoge- ther united to the divine itself, 10,655. Against the divine itself they dare not breathe even a whisper, 10,367; nor against the man who is regenerated by the goods of love and the truths of faith, 8273, compare o 1 W3 Before the evil are damned and sent into hell they are gradually vastated, in order that they may come into their own interior life, ill. 7795. By means of vastation every truth and good is taken away from the evil, and they are left in evil and the false, but they are not allowed to increase the faculty of evil which they had acquired in the world, 6977. See Vastation. The punishments which accrue to infernal spirits are the means of their external emendation, but the cupidity of doing evil remains, and is only restrained by fears, 6977. They forcibly restrain themselves from evil in the degree that the horror of punish- ment exceeds the pleasure of evil, 7188, 7280. They never desist from infesting the upright until they are compelled by punishments, 6907, 7097 end. See Egypt (2), Evil (4), and as to the place of infesta- tion and vastation, called the lower earth, see Earth. See also Moderators. The hells are in a continual state of effervescence and excitement to evil, but it is continually repressed by the Lord, and by the opposing sphere of heaven, 8209, 8273 end, 9492. They who are without charity in the world, are also in the interior delight and effort of evil, though it may not appear exteriorly, 7032. See Devil, Damnation, Deep, Flood, Death, Disease, Despair, Faith (4), Proprium. . i. • 2. Connection of Hell with man. Hell in its least form is man as to the hereditary evils into which he is born, and what he adds thereto from his proprium or actual life, ill. 9336, 5339. Men are born into evils of every kind, insomuch that the proprium of man is nothing but evil, 210, 215, 694, 731, 874, 987, 1023, 1049, 2307, 2308, 3518, 3701, 3812, 4317, 8480, 8550, 10,283, 10,284, 10,286, 10,731. The proprium of man is hell with him, for it brings him into communication with hell by the medium of evil spirits, 694, 987, 1049, 8480. There are at least two evil spirits and two angels with every man, and by the former he has communication with hell, 687, 697, especially 5846—5866, 5976—5993. All that is evd and false with man flows in from hell, but man makes it his own by appropria- tion, 3812. The Lord witholds man from evils by elevating him above them, to prevent his rushing into hell, 789. The great gulph, or hell, by which man is separated from the Lord is hatred against the neighbour, 904. To have hell in oneself is to be pnncipled m the loves of self and the world, and they who are in those loves come into hell after death, 10,742, 10,743. Hell is in the continual tendency and endeavour to rush into man, but the Lord delivers him by rege- \ ■MM r 830 HEL HEL 331 J '4 neration. whereby a new will, which is conscience, is given l"m. 987. ill. 1692. They who think evil of others and intend evil »» J;l»e>n «re infernal, they who think and intend good "^e f Iff''"!' IXtl, anS who are devils in the life of the body become devils .fer death, and the opinion that there is any devil or any infernal spirits who were not men is false. 968. There are some devils and those mostly from among Christians, who desire to obsess the exteriors of man "dthe'eby re- turn into the world, but they are shut up in the hells. 2/52, 5990. compare 6666. There are some who more especallv obsess the in- teriors, 4793. In general there are two classes of infernals which are rerpSively called %enii and »pirit., their characteristics descnbed^ 947. 5035, 5977. 8593, 8622, 8625. ««« p.^«"' /"JJ^^f £ hells entertain deadly hatred towards man, and it is the delight of their life to destroy him. Especially his soul, 5863 5864. There is attend- ant on man a common sphere or influx from hell tending to evil, and also a sphere from heaven continually tending to good, hence the equi- librium V which man is kept in freedom, 6477. See Euuimbrium Liberty. The more malignant hells are kept separate so that they ^nnot operate into hereditary evil, 1667. 8806 See Ev.l (4) The hells are separated from one another as by clouds, and waters, or seas, &c 8137. Man casts himself into hell when he does evil, first enter- tainiuK it in thought, then from consent, next from purpose, and lastly frZ !he delight^ of affection, 6203. 6204. Consent to evil opens the hell corresponding thereto, 6203, 6204. Every hell is closed round about, but is opened above according to necessity an^ ^f' «» consequence of the association of evil spirits with man, til. 10,48.5. ^'l^^PMar helh. Description of the hells of those who have cherished a life of hatred, revenge, and cruelty. 814—823.

The hell of adul- terers, who are also given to cruelty; their cruel instruments ; some of the ancient Jews there ; the deadly fcetor exhaled by their dehghts ; the state they finally reach, 824,5057. The hell of immodest women, called Gehenna; its appearance like fire in the air, as from a great conflagra- tion; its odour like hair and bones burning; its change into serpents, by which they are cruelly bitten; its alternations of extreme cold and heat, 825 Another Gehenna described, which is the hell of those who have defiled holiness by reputing adulteries holy; the difference of its fire ; the whispering sound heard there, 826. The filthy hell of those who have endeavoured to ensnare by simulating conjugial love and the love of infants; how they are devastated even to the bones, 827. Ine erievous punishment of those who deflower virgins without any view to marriage and offspring ; their state represented by passing into the belly of a furious horse, &c. ; how rarely children are born to such, and when thev are, their vile hereditary state and early translation into the other life, 828. The punishment of those who think and speak lasciviously, &c., 829. The punishment of those who have supposed that young and beautiful wives are their property, and not peculiar to the husband, 829i. The hell of those who have deceived men by premeditated craft with the intention of destroying them ; the serpents amongst which they live, and how real they appear to them ; the state of soUtary torment at which they arrive, 830. The hell ot those who have affected a pious and moral life but indulged their lusts in secret without conscience ; how greedily they imbibe the most ne- farious arts and become jugglers and syrens ; their deceits and punish- ment; the final state at which they arrive, 831.

The state of those who have supposed themselves saints, their lust and anxiety ; and of those who affected holiness for the sake of ereatness in heaven, 951, 952.

The hell of those who have accomplished their ends in the world by artifices and lies ; their correspondence with ulcers and imposthumes in the body ; their punishment by circumrotation, r>188. The worst hell is that of profaners, for they immerse the truths of faith in their cupidities, and destroy remains, 571, 582, G348, 8882. The hells are immensely augmented at the present day from the Christian world, 666G, HERB. The good works first produced in the regeneration arc called the tender herb, 9, 29; and in their farther growth, the herb yielding seed, &c., 29. The herb yielding seed is the food of the spiritual man ; the fruit-tree yielding fruit of the celestial, sh. [)7 ; and the green herb of the natural, .59. Bitter herbs signify the injucun- dities of temptation, 7854. Ilcrb seeding seed denotes every truth which regards use, 57. The herb of the field is all that the external man produces, 90, 91. To eat the herb of the field is to live as a wild beast, 274. To eat grass or sedge is to be instructed, 5201. Sec Grass. All herbs signify some species of scientific, (>72(), (uiu* Every herb of tile field signifies every truth of the church, 7571 ; and pastures, nutrition, 7571. By herbs, grasses, and leaves of trees are signified truths, and by their viridity or freshness, the sensitive apprehension of truth, 7691: see also 99G. The herb of the field denotes the truth of the church, sh. 7571. See Field, Ground. HERD lannentum]. Animals of the herd denote celestial natural things, those of the flock celestial rational, 2180. They within the church who are external or natural men are signified by the herd ; hence, a herd denotes external or natural goods in the abstract, 2500, 3108. Flocks denote internal or rational goods, herds external or natural goods, 4378, 1505, ill. and s/t. 10,009. The flock and the herd denote natural good interior and exterior, 5913, 7501, 70(33. The flock denotes charity, the herd its exterior goods, which are the exer- cises of charity, 0530, 0531, 7003. Herds denote exterior goods, and also what are thought to be goods but are not, 4250, 1505. The animals belonging to the herd are oxen, heifers, and steers, which denote affections of good and truth in the natural or external man ; those belonging to the flock, are lambs, sheep, kids, he and she-goats, and rams, which denote aflections of good and truth in the internal man, 8937, 9391, briefly 5913. See Flocks, Cattle. The strife between the herd men of Abram and the herdmen of Lot denotes the discrepancy and want of correspondence between the in- ternal and external man, 1571. Abraham's running to tlie herd, and preparing a calf for the entertainment of his angelic visitant, the pro- cedure of the rational man in the conjunction of external good, 2180. Isaac being blessed with flocks and herds, the acquisition of goods in general; both interior or rational, and exterior or natural, 3154, 3403, 3408. The strife between Isaac's herdmen and the herdmen of the valley of Gerar, the discrepancy and opposition between those who instruct from internal doctrine and those who instruct from external, 3425. Jacob's acquisition of flocks and herds in the service of Laban, the procuration of genuine goods and truths by means of such as are not genuine, 3993, 4005, 4073, 4084, 4087, 4109, 4217. His return- ing home with them, and reconciliation with Esau, the conjunction of divine good flowing into the natural man thereby, 4330, 4308, 4378, 4 J 438 1. Ilis going with all his family and their flocks and herds into Egypt, the procedure of influx and formation of a spiritual state in the natural man, 0013, 0040, 0004, 0005, 0084, 0102—0100. The Egyp- tians supplied with corn in return for their cattle and their flocks, the influx of spiritual life in proportion to the goods which are offered as receptacles, 0121, 0123, 0124, 0120, 0128. The Israelites delivered from Egypt, their flocks and herds going with them, the salvation of the spiritual church after infestation ; both of those who are in interior good and those who are in exterior, 0825, 0839, 7003, 7900. The animals of the flock and herd appointed for sacrifice, denote the means by which the external man and the internal is to become regenerate. 10,042, 9391. HEREDITARY [hceredUarium]. See Evil (2), Heir. HERESY [/ueresis]. Wherever any church exists, heresies come into existence from making faith or some article of faith primary, 302. The church would be one if charity was preserved as the essential, howsoever men might differ as to doctrinals and external worship, 1280, 1310, ill. 1798, 1799, 1834, 1844, 2385, 2982, 3207, 3451. See Church. If all had charity, heresy and schism would not be called by such names, but regarded as diff'erences of opinion and left to the conscience of each ; providing only that the Lord, and eternal life, and the Word were not denied, and that the life was formed according to the precepts of the decalogue, 1834. The scientifics of the church taken from the external sense of the Word, are such as to draw the mind into all manner of heresies, unless the truths of the internal sense be insinuated into them ; in that case it is impossible to be led into heresy, ill. 0071, ill. 0222. Examples more particularly, 9424, 4721, 4730, 4770, 4783, 4925, 7779, 8313, 8705, 9224. Heresies originate with those who are in some truth taken from the Word, but not in good, 0400, ill. 0705. Those who refer all things to faith and nothing to charity, are in darkness concerning the conjunction of good and truth, and involve the truth itself in darkness ; hence so many heresies and hallucinations, 9180. The infernal heresy concerning the power of the keys is derived from the external sense of the Word understood without doctrine, 9410. They who are in heresies and falsesare under the necessity of passing over such passages of the Word as do not accord with their doctrine; but they that are in the illustration of truths see concordances everywhere, 9424. The external sense of the Word conjoined with the internal is holy, but separated from it is not holy, and they who press its meaning without the doctrine of the internal sense are drawn into all manner of heresies ; hence it is that the Word is called by such the book of heresies, 10,270. Heresies exist from this, that man is in things external and not in things in- ternal, and that he thinks of himself and the world when he reads the Word ; they, on the contrary, in whom the internal man is opened, are in illustration when they read the Word or in the internal sense, though they do not know it, ill. 10,400, 10,330. See Doctrine, Word. Doctrines separated from the church, or heresies, are denoted by Cain and his posterity, 324, 401, 404—409. HERMON [Chermon]. See Lebanon. HERO. The Lord is called a man of war and a hero, on account of his combating with evils and falses, and especially with the whole t 334 HID power of hell when he assumed the human, 8273, 10,053. In the opposite sense, they are called mighty men, heroes, or men of war, who stoutly oppose themselves to tnith, 5135. Heroes in drinking wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink, is predicated of reasonings against the truths of faith by those who are in self-intelligence, 1072. The hell of so-called heroes who have delighted in rapine and bloodshed is in the great gut ; the horror of the angels that there can be such who call themselves Christians, 5393. HESIIBON [Chesbone], See Moab. HETH, [CAeM], denotes the exterior knowledges of things celestial, as Zidon of things spiritual, 1199, 1203. Heth signifies such know- ledges in both senses, namely, both with and without an internal prin- ciple, 1203. The sons of Heth, or the Hittitcs, were among the better class of the inhabitants of Canaan, 2913, 3686, and hence Abimelech who was with David, and Uriah, of whose wife Solomon was born, were Hittites, 2913. They represent and signify the spiritual church or the truth of the church, 2913, 2941; also the opposite, 2913, 1867, 6858, 7054, 7332, 10,638 ; and the church, as subsequently instituted among the Gentiles, 2928, 2986, 3470, 3620, 3686, 6461, 6551. As the spiritual church among the Gentiles is not in truth derived from the Word, the Hittites denote truth from a source not genuine, 3470, 3620 ; and the daughters of Heth the affections of such truth, 3620—3622, 3686 — 3688. The sons of Heth denote those who are capable of re- ceiving the good and truth of faith, and with whom a new church can be raised up, 2940. The Hittites belonged to the city of Ephron, 2933, compare 2943. See Ephron. They signify falses produced from the most grievous evil, 9332. The church with the ancients, or the remains of the most ancient church were still existing in Canaan in the time of Jacob, and especially with the Hittites and Hivites, 4429, 4447, 4454, 4643. See Amorite, Hivite, Jebusite. Compare Hebron. HEW, to. See to Cut. HIDDEKEL, the river [Chiddeket], denotes reason, or the clearness and perspicuity of reason, 118. See Eden, Ashur. HIDE, OR Conceal, to [abscondere, celare], is to reject and to bury as dead ; hence the idols and other insignia of idolatry, hidden under an oak by Jacob, denotes the eternal rejection of falses, 4552. The Egyptians professing to hide nothing from Joseph denotes that the state of the external man is known to the internal, 6132. Moses hidden three months, and then exposed by his mother, denotes the whole period and state in which the divine law could not appear, and then its manifestation, 6721, 6722. Moses hiding the Egyptian in the sand denotes the rejection of scientifics contrary to the truth of the church, or alienated therefrom among falses, 6761, 6762. The Egyp- tians overwhelmed and concealed by the waters of the Red Sea denotes the state of the evil separated by their own falses, 8229—8232. The Lord is said to hide his face and turn away from the evil according to the appearance, because they are not receptive of his mercy, «A. 5585, compare 222—225, 387. They who live the life of love have angelic intelligence and wisdom concealed within the interior memory, and they come mto the full enjoyment thereof in the other life, 2494 ; the con- trary also, 4314. Thamar's veiling herself on the approach of Judah, HIT 335 denotes that the interiors of the representative church were concealed from his posterity, 4866. The silver concealed by Joseph in the sacks of his brethren denotes that all truth and good in the natural man is from the Lord's divine human, and not from the proprium, 5664, and the antecedent numbers 5402, 5405, 5488, 5489, 5496, 5499, 5530, 5624, 5649, 5657, 5658, 5660. The silver cup of Joseph hidden in the sack of Benjamin, denotes interior truth or the faith of charity given m the midst, 5736. The hidden manna denotes good from the Lord and the Lord himself with man, 8464. HIEROGLYPHICS. The hieroglyphics of the Egyptians were derived from the ancient representative church which existed there, and they signify spiritual things, 6692, 6917, 7097. They were the images of natural things by which spiritual things are represented, 7926. They are the remains of the science of spiritual things, which was cul- tivated by the ancients in Chaldea, Assyria, Egypt, Arabia, and Greece, 90 U . hee Egypt (3), Correspondence. HIGGAION.

High and most high are predicated of spiritual and celes- tial love, 795 ; and hence of heaven and the Lord, 920, 6435. High represents and signifies the internal; most high, the inmost, 1735. Heights, towers, &c., signify the interiors in both senses, 1306, 1307, 4o99. Expressions which imply height, as to lift up, &c., have refer- ence to what is interior, 2148. Things interior are denoted by what is high in accordance with what appears to man, hence heaven is said to be on high, variously ill. 2149, 3387, 3739, 4210, 4599, 5146. Heaven IS not on high as some suppose, but everywhere where there is love and charity, 450. Height denotes degree as to good, and also as to truth from good, ill. 9489 ; the latter, when predicated of the ultimate heaven, 9773, ill. 10,181. High signifies heaven and the divine therein, be- cause the starry heaven which appears on high denotes the heaven of the Lord 8153. The Lord is called the Most High, because he is the mmost and the sun of heaven, 9489, 9773. To exalt himself when predicated of the Lord, denotes the manifestation of the divine in the human, 8264, 8342. Man exalting the Lord denotes worship, because divine worship consists in the exaltation of the Lord over self, 8271. See Heights. The children of Israel going out with a high hand,' denotes the liberation of the spiritual by divine power, 8153.

The remains of the cliiirch existed in Canaan from most remote antiquity, especially amongst the Hittites and Uivites; hence the truths of the church are represented by those nations, 4129. The Ilivites signify interior truth because they had been principled in it from antiquity ; they were more upright than the other Canaanites, 4431. On this account the Gibeonites, who belonged to this nation, were providen- tially preserved by a covenant with Joshua, 4431. See Gibeonites feHECHEM. The remains of the most ancient church were with the Uivites, 4447, 4454.

Ihey are m a holy state who are innocent, even though they may be in ignorance, and nothing holy can be i>redicated of those who are in self- intelligence, 155/. Angels are in the holiness of ignorance, though they are most wise, because they attribute nothing of intelligence and wisdom to themselves, 1557. All things of love and faith are holy pare 8882, 9310. Holiness is predicated of faith only so far as love and charity are m it, 2146, 2343 end.

Worship is holy according to the quality and store of truth implanted in charity, 2190 337 Al good is called holy because it is from the Lord, 2190.

The holy aftection perceived in reading the Word is from the order in which the innumerable particulars of the internal sense coalesce in the common expressions of the literal sense, 3438, especially 10,635. The Word is holy even if taught by the evil, and the sacraments if administered by them, thus, the office of a king or priest is holy whatever the character ot him who represents it or ministers therein, 3670, ill. 4311.

The essential holy principle is love to the l.ord, 38a2 ; thus the divme proceeding from him, 9229 and citations. Holy is predicated of love that flows in from the Lord, and from the reception of which man is affected by truth, 4154. Truth proceeding from the Lord can only be with man in what is holy, 4154. Man is made holy, or sanctified, by love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, ill. 4727. They are meant by the just and the holy in the Word who know and acknowledge that all good is from the Lord, and all evd from themselves, 5069.

The holy spirit is the divine proceeding, or the "holy" that proceeds from the Lord, 6788, 9680 end. Holy is predicated of truth that proceeds from the Lord, and the holy spirit is holy truth, sh. 6788. The divine truth proceeding from the Lord cannot be heard nor perceived until it has passed heaven, and thus become human ; the spirits by whom it is then spoken are in that state called the holy spirit, because they utter the holy truth that proceeds from the Lord, 6982, ill, 7004. Angels, prophets, and apostles are called holy from the reception of divine truth from the Lord, ill, 9820, 9932. The divine truth that proceeds from the Lord's divine human, is called the holy spirit, and not any spirit from eternity, ill. 6993. Procedure is not predicated of spirit itself, but of the holy [afflux] of the spirit, that is, the " holy" that proceeds from the Lord and is spoken by spirits, 6993. The holy spirit is not of those who utter it but of the Lord, 6993. Divine truth proceeding from the divine good of the Lord's divine human is the spirit of truth or holy spirit, 8127. Holiness is predicated of divine truth proceeding from the Lord, and this is meant by the " holy," or holy spirit, 8302 ; and which is the Lord in heaven, or the divine accommodated to the reception of angels and spirits, 10,196. The holy spirit is the holy [afflux], or the " divine," pro- ceeding from the Lord, 9229 and citations.

Sanctification with respect to those who are of the spiritual chureh, denotes their being led by the Lord, or their beins in good received from him. for such good is holy, 8806, 10,111 To be sanctified denotes not to be capable of being violated, and it is pre- dicated of man when he receives the inviolable good of love from the z 2 340 11 O N Lord, 8887, 8895. To be sanctified is to be imbued with divine truth from the Lord, 9820 ; for truth is holy in proportion as it is of the Lord, thus in proportion as it contains good in it, 9G80. To sanctify is to represent the " holy" itself, thus the Lord as to the divine human, 9956, 9988. To sanctify is to represent the Lord and the holy things that proceed from him, 10,091, 10,111 ; thus, his presence in heaven and the church, 10,126, ///. 10,276, 10,277. To be sanctified is to re- ceive truths by good from the Lord, not that man is therefore holv, but the Lord with him, 10,1 1 1 ; hence it is to receive the Lord, ill, 1*0,128 and citations. To sanctify denotes the influx and presence of the Lord, 10,276. The presence and conjunction of the Lord is according to the state of thought and affection as being more or less holy and interior ; thus, according to the appropriation of holy good and truth from the Lord, or the reception of his holy proceeding, ///. 4211, also 681, 904, 2658, 2886—2889, 3001, 3741—3743, 4198, 4206, 4320, 4525, 6832, 7042, 7211, 8819, 9128, 9680, 9682, 9683, 10,106. The plate of gold upon the priest's forehead represented illustration from good, and " holiness to Jehovah" was inscribed upon it, because holiness from him is divine truth proceeding from divine good, 9930, 9932. Holi- ness was inscribed upon the plate and worn upon the forehead in sight of all the people, in order that their minds might be all-together affected with holiness, corresponding to the holy state of heaven from the Lord's divine human, 9932, 9933. Aaron's bearing the iniquity of the holy things in virtue of this plate denotes the removal of falses and evils from those who are in good, fully ill, 9937—9940. All things were called holy which represented divine things, as the garments of Aaron and his sons, 10,069. Purification from falses and holy truths put on was represented by change of garments, 4545, 5248. See Garments. Such things were not holy essentially after their inauguration, but only representatively, 10,149. They who are in truth natural not spiritual believe them to be holy by infusion, but the spiritual that they are holy as representatives, 5008. They are holy only when holily received, for otherwise there is no influx from the divine into them, 10,208. Such things were polluted by the sins of the people, and in like manner the holy things of the church at this day, because the divine cannot be in them where there is sin, ill. and sh. 10,208. Holiness is predicated of the number seven and the seventh day, and it signifies the celestial man, the celestial church, the celestial kingdom, and in the supreme sense the Lord himself or the divine human, ah, 395, 433, sh. 716, 881, 3824, 3852, especially 10,360 and following numbers. See Sabbath. HOMER \Chomer], See Measure. HONEY [mel]. See Food. To eat butter and honey signifies the celestial spiritual, 680, 2184. Butter, honey, milk, &c., because they partake of fatness, signify various goods of the ancient spiritual church, ill. and sh, 5943. Butter signifies celestial good, honey its felicity, 2184. Honey, because it is sweet, signifies what is delightful and pleasant, especially in the exterior natural principle, sh, 5620. A land flowing with milk and honey, denotes what is pleasant and delightful, 6857, 8056 ; one of these terms being predicated of truth, the other of good, 8056. See Milk. Honey signifies natural de- light, 8522, and this in both senses, thus, commixed with the delight of the love of the world, 10, 137 at the end. Also, celestial good or the n GO 34:1 ] good of love, 10,530. Wild honey signifies the delight of the Word, or divine truth in tlie letter as to good, 5620 (compare 9995), 7643, 9372. Wild honey, or honey of the field, is so called because the church is signified by a field, 9372. What is signified by the honey- comb of which the Lord partook after his resurrection, 5620. HONESTY [honestum]. Spiritual good and truth, civil justice and equity, and moral honesty and decorum, follow in order, and upon them is founded conscience, 2915. Honesty is the complex of all the moral virtues, decorum is only their form, 2915. Honesty consists in de- siring the welfare of others from the heart in matters of civil life ; decorum in the gestures and language testifying thereto, 4574. How truths are to be regarded as the forms of good, illustrated by what is honest and decorous, 4574. Description of those who simulated honor and honesty, and discovery of their quality in the other life, 821, 831. HONOUR, has no life except from good or love ; hence honour, in the spiritual sense, is love ; in heaven where one loves another, one also honours another, 8897. The end of the life is present in every thought and in every action, even when it is not reflected upon ; thus, he who honours his parents from the heart, or fears and honours God, mani- fests it in all that he thinks and in all that he does, whether before others or in secret, 5949. He who keeps the commandments externally from conscience, is thereby led into internals ; thus, from the honour of his earthly father he learns to honour the Tord ; also that the Lord is honoured when he is worshiped, and that he is worshiped when he is loved, 3690. To honour father and mother in the spiritual sense, is to love good and truth, and in these the Lord, sh, 3703, ill. by the explanation of the commandment, 8896 — 8900. Honours are not to be sought on their own account, but for the sake of use to others, 6938. To honour or glory over any one denotes confidence and belief in him, 7395. The honour attached to any function, which honour is propor- tioned to its dignity, does not attach to the person, but is separated when the function is separated ; personal honour is that of wisdom and the fear of the Lord, 10,797. Those who apply themselves to the truths of faith for the sake of honour and gain cannot receive them, for the affections can only appropriate that which agrees with themselves, 477(iy 5280, 5464, 8148. See Glory. HOOF \jnnguld]. The heels, the soles, the hollow of the feet and hoofs signify the ultimates of the natural man, thus truth derived from good in the sensual degree, and its opposite false principle, sh. 772^, The foot of man and the hoofs of beasts troubling the waters predicated of Egypt denotes scientifics from sensual and natural things and entering iuto the truths of faith thereby, 2162. See Foot. The hoofs of the horses of Nebuchadnezzar trampling down the streets, denotes scien- tifics perverting truth, 2336, more fully, 3727, 10,227. Their horses' hoofs like flint denotes natural truths, 2686. The hoofs of the horse denote either the truth or the false principle in ultimates, thus the lowest intellectual things, ill. and sh, 3923, ill, 6400, 7729, 9391. The fountain opened by the hoof of Pegasus, denotes intelligence flowing from the natural application of the understanding or experience, 4966. The noise or trampling of the hoofs of strong horses, denotes the lowest scientifics which are derived immediately from sensual things destrpying the truths of faith, 6015.

The recreation, hope, and victory of those that undergo tem[)tations, flow in from the Lord, who is himself immediately present, and also mediately by the ministration of angels, 6574, HI. 8159, 8165. Genuine confidence cannot be given with any except those who are in the good of charity, and genuine hope cannot be given with any except those who arc in the good of faith, 6578. Sec Con- fidence, Faith (1). HOIIEB [Choreb'], the mountain of God, signifies the good of divine love, 6830. Horeb signifies the divine law ; the rock in Horeb the truth of the divine law, thus the Lord himself ; the water flowing therefrom the truths of faith, 8581 — 8583. Horeb, by which is meant the whole extension of the mountainous tract of Sinai, denotes the ex- ternal of worship, of the church, and of the Word ; Sinai in the midst, divine truth, ill. 10,543. Mount Horeb denotes heaven; or, what is the same, divine truth in the whole complex ; Sinai in its midst, the internal ; and the mountainous region round about, the external, 10,608. The calf made in Horeb represented worship from externals only, 9391. See Sinai, Idolatry. HORITES [CAorita]. See Edom. HORNS [cornud]y denote the power of truth from good ; in the opposite sense, the power of the false from evil, sh. 2832, briefly 4489, 9081, sh. 10,182. Horns signify the exteriors, because it is in the extremes or nltimates that truth from good is in its power, 10,186, 10,208. The horns of the altar signify divine truths proceeding from divine good, briefly sh. 2832, 10,027, 10,208. There being four horns on the four corners of the altar denotes all manner of power, 9719 — 9721. The horns of the altar arc analogically the same as the hands and arms of a man, 10,186. See Hand. To strike or gore with the horn is to destroy the false by the power of truth ; in the opposite sense, to destroy truth by the power of the false, 9081, 9065, briefly 7456. The horn of the he-goat growing towards the south, denotes the power of the false principle of faith-alone opposing itself to truth, 9642. To push with side and with shoulder, and to strike with the horns, denotes with all the soul and power, and with every force, 1085. See Forces. The ram caught in the thicket by the horns denotes the potency of spiritual truth involved and implicated in natural scientifics, ill. and sh. 2830 — 2832. See Isaac. Ebony and horns of ivory sig- nify exterior goods such as relate to worship or rituals, 1 1 72. HORNET, THE [crabo], being a winged creature with a venomous sting, denotes the false principle of evil, which is the evil itself in out- ward form, sh. 9331. Hornets sent before the Israelites to drive put the old inhabitants of Canaan from before them, denotes the dread of those who are in the falses of evil upon the first influx of truths, 9331, 9332. See Insects, Fear. HORROR. Temptations are permitted in order that a state of horror at evils and falses may be induced and a conscience formed, 1692. Evil spirits dare not approach him who has a horror of evils and falses, on account of the torments they experience, 1 740. They who arc in celestial love experience horror at the sight of vastation. is Rood and truth ^-.o-? wi A f°"^,®q*^ence of the mverse order of Lord,rhoi' 'f Si SrSfsSeV'/S "T""'^'* ''"^ ^""^ joined to fear, and exists frZ f i^L • 2 'r •. ^^^^^^^ ^^ aversion 702/75S3 maf 1 ""^'^"""'d'ng. »A. 2761. 2762. 2781. 6125. manVa £Cni ptr276T"'H*' >"!f"-"'«l J-">ty i a horsel and chariots things Sri^»I ^ ,1 ^'^^^- ^"""^^ ^^'"S^ intellectual, is evil a"d fa se ,A M2? fiUV«%T°'ii' '"'''■ '*'"='""'''* »' '^tat the sensual S. deuffe'L'is'fn ^iSal tS HlZ'^T'"' £Sir&,re2. 4F- n^Kenot? ttr Neptune, the winded hnrifK ^"'"'^^ "^ *^* """' 'he horse of ririliJ f 1.1 ""'g"."

Elias carried up into heaven by a chariot of fire and horses of fire, denotes the doctrine of love and charity, and the doctrine of faith, the latter being the same as the Word in its internal sense, 2762, 5321 . To eat the flesh of horses, or be filled with horses and with chariots at the Lord's table, is to appropriate doctrinal and intellectual truths and goods from the internal sense of the Word, 5321, 10,033. See Hoof, Chariot. 2. Riding is predicated of the understanding elevated into superior light, 3190; and hence of instruction, 1288. To ride in chariots and upon horses, denotes the abundance of intellectual and doctrinal things, 2015, 5321 ; or the being instructed by the doctrine of truth from the Word understood interiorly, 276 1 . To ride upon clouds, predicated of the Lord, denotes the Word understood as to its interior sense, 276 1 ; or his being in the internal sense, where there is intelligence and wisdom, 6534. To ride upon a cherub, predicated of the Lord, denotes his providence lest man should enter of himself into the mysteries of faith, which are contained in the Word, 2761, particularly 4391. To ride upon the word of truth and of the meekness of justice, denotes the understanding of truth and the wisdom of good, 2761 ; or instruc- tion in the doctrine thereof, 1288. To ride upon the high places of the earth, denotes superior intelligence, 2761, 6534, compare 85. To ride upon a camel denotes elevation above the scientifics of the natural man, 3190. To ride, predicated of Ephraim, is to delight in under- standing, 5895. To ride upon an ass is predicated of what is service- able to the new intelligence or understanding when the spiritual life is commenced, 7024. To ride upon an ass is to make the natural man subordinate ; and to ride upon a colt the son of an ass is to make the rational man subordinate, fully sh, 2781 ; the case of the Lord ex- plained, 9212. 3. The state of a newly raised spirit represented by a youth sitting on a horse and directing him towards hell, but the horse does not move from his place, wherefore the rider descends and goes on foot, 187, 188, ill, 789, compare 2762. They who deflower virgins without any purpose of marriage and ofl'spring, when they come into the other life, seem to themselves to sit on a furious horse, &c., 828. Horses and chariots are represented in the other life when the angels are discoursing together about what is intellectual, 2179, 2762, 2763, 3217. There is a place at some depth to the right where chariots and horses continually appear, wh^re those who were learned in the worid walk and discourse together; it is called the abode of the intelligent, 3217, 5321. The spiritual sense in the prophetical portions of the Word represented by a chariot drawn by two horses abreast and conveying a man ; the rejec- tion of the Jewish and Israelitish people who were only in the external sense, by a man thrown from the horse and the horse kicking; and the intellectual state of those who are in the internal sense by a rider seated on a horse, 6212. When the spirits of the planet Jupiter become angels, they appear to be carried to heaven by bright horses as of fire, similar to those of Elias, 8029. There are horses of great stature roaming at large in the forests of the planet Jupiter, and the inhabitants are m actual fear of them although they are harmless ; the HOU 345 influx of this fear is occasioned by their dread of cultivating the intel- lectual faculty by means of the sciences, 838 1 . HOSPITABLE ABODE [hospitium']. See Inn. HOT, TO GROW [incalescere]. See Heat. HOURS OF THE DAY [hovce]. See Day. HOUSE [domua]. In the most ancient times the human race was distinguished into houses, families, and nations, 470, 1159, 1246, 1259, 1261. A house consisted of the husband and wife with their children, and other members of the family, as servants ; a family, of several houses ; and a nation, of several families, 470, 1258. They dwelt thus distinctly on account of their distinct perception of good and truth, and the representation of the Lord's kingdom, 471, 483, 1259. See Family, Nations. House signifies the will and the things which are of the will, 710. To build a house is to edify the external man, 1488, 4389. See Habitation. How magnificent the habitations of the angels are ; and that their reality surpasses that of similar things in the world, 1628, 1629. That they are of various kinds, 4622. How the case is when they are changed, 1629. Such houses were shown to souls recently deceased, 1630. The rich without charity at first dwell in magnificent palaces, afterwards in viler habita- tions, at length they ask alms, 1631. See Palaces. Those born in the house, signifies goods in the external man, 1708. The steward of the house, or he who is over the house, signifies the external church, when the house denotes the internal, 1795, 5640. Those who are born in the house denote the celestial, and those who are bought with silver, the spiritual, 2048. By a house is signified the celestial prin- ciple or good of faith, and by a temple the truth of faith, 2048. Houses denote goods, and all who are in good, 2233, 2234. Houses also signify interior delights, which are goods to those who are in good, 2559. Man is a house, viz., his internal good the house of a father, goods in the same degree the houses of brethren, external good the house of a mother, 3128. By sweeping the house is signified the re- jection of evil lusts and false persuasions, 3142. See to Sweep. The rational mind as to good and truth conjoined to each other, as by mar- riage, is signified by house, 3538. The roof of the house denotes good which is superior, things in the house denote truths, 3652. To dwell in the house of Jehovah is to be and to live in the good of love, 3384. The house of God is the church, in a more universal sense heaven, and in the most universal sense the universal kingdom of the Lord ; in the supreme sense it denotes the Lord as to good, and temple, the same as to truth, 3720. On this account the house of God amongst the most ancient people was of wood, because wood denotes good, 3720 ; and it signifies the Lord's kingdom in the ultimate of order, 3720. See Temple. What is meant by secret or inner chambers in various senses, 3900. The house empty signifies the interiors of man void of all good, and consequently replete with uncleann'ess, that is with falses derived from evils, 4744. House signifies the mind either natural or rational, 4973, 5023. Generally, the mind in which is good, thus, the man himself, sh, 5023. To be in the house signifies to be initiated, 4973. When the celestial man is treated of, house signifies celestial good, and in this case field is spiritual good, but when house denotes spiritual good, then field denotes spiritual truth. N 346 HUM HUM 347 ( 4982. House of prison signifies the vastation of the false, conse- quently temptation, 5043. House of my father denotes hereditary evils, 5353. To come to the house signifies presence, 5674. To enter into one's bed-chamber denotes interiorly, not outwardly or mani- festly, sh, 5694. To enter into the house of any one denotes commu- nication, 5776. See Door. By God*s making houses for the midwives, is denoted that he arranged scientifics into a celestial form, 6690. House denotes the mind ; the closets of a bed-chamber, the interiors of the mind, 7353. The house of fathers denotes the particular good of every one, ill. 7833, 7834, 7835. House signifies the will of good, 7848, 7929. The sons of Israel represented heaven and heavenly things and their societies, by divisions into tribes, families, and houses, 7836, 7891, 7996, 7997. See Tribes. House signifies the church, and good in the church ; also man and his mind both as to its rational and natural parts ; also the memory in which truths and scientifics are stored up, 9150. Those who are within the house, and especially they who are in one chamber, think as one ; it is otherwise with those who are without, ill. and «A., 9213 at the end. HOUSEHOLD [domesticus]. A man's foes those of his own household, denotes that the evils and falses by which he is tempted are those of his own proprium, 4843, 10,490. See Family, House, Evil. HUL [Chul]. See Uz. HUMAN, the, or. Human Principle \humanum,'\ commences in the inmost of the rational, and extends itself thence to the external of man, 2106, 2194, 2625, 3704. All that is truly human in man is from the Lord, and unless the love which constitutes humanity be received from him, man is only a beast, 41, 1894. The human considered in itself is nothing but the form recipient of life from the divine, but the glorified or divine human of the Lord is the esse itself of life, and that from which life proceeds, 5256. There are two things which constitute the human or real man, namely, the rational or in- ternal man and the natural or external, 3245, 3737. Man is truly human so far as he is principled in innocence, 4797. The Lord alone was man as to the body also, 5078. See Man (homo). HUMAN LIVING PRINCIPLE, the, [humanum vimm'], is all that flows in from the Lord, ill. 41, 1894. See Human, Life, Man. HUMAN INTERNAL, the, consists of the first forms recipient of life from the Lord, by which man is united to him, and by which the whole human race is kept under his intuition, 1999. See Man X^homo) . HUMAN DIVINE, the, is predicated of the divine manifestation and influx through the celestial kingdom, the divine human of the human assumed and glorified, 6371, compare 6831, 6000. The human divine was susceptible of temptation, not so the divine human, 28 11 — 2814. See Lord. HUMBLE, to, [humiliarel. See Humiliation. HUMILIATION. One humbling another denotes subjugation, briefly, 1922. To humble oneself is expressed in the Hebrew tongue by a word which signifies to effect ; hence, by humbling himself is denoted that man ought to compel himself to submit to divine good and divine truth, 1937, 1947. See to Compel, Compulsion. Wor- 1 I" ship consists in the adoration of the Lord, the adoration of the Lord in humiliation, and humiliation in the acknowledgment that self is no- thing, and that all life and all good are from the Lord, 1153, ill. 1999, 3880, 8271. In all genuine worship and adoration there is humilia- tion, more or less profound, according as this acknowledgment is so, 2327. A state of true humiliation comes from the acknowledgment of self as nothing but evil, and thus that no one can from himself look to the Lord, who is holiness itself, 2327. Humiliation is not required of man for the sake of an empty submission to the Lord, but in order that mutual love may flow in, 1594. Conjunction with the Lord is closer in proportion to the degree of humiliation, 2000. They who are in the affection of truths are less humble than they who are in the affection of good ; hence, they do not speak of the Lord's mercy, but of his grace, 2423. See Grace. The spiritual are not in humiliation like the celestial, but elate of heart, and hence they cannot receive good from the Lord, 2715. There is a chain of subordination and application, thus of submission, proceeding from the first esse of life through all existences ; all conjunction in this chain of superiors and inferiors is by submission, 3091. See Submission, Subordination. The power of angels is proportionate to their acknowledgment that of themselves they are nothing; thus, to their humiliation, and their affection of serving others, 3417. It may be seen even by the under- standing that the divine can only flow in as the loves of self and the world are removed, thus, into a state of humiliation ; but no one can be in humiUation and at the same time in evil, 3539. Hence also, the reason may be deduced why humiliation is required of man, that is, not because the Lord wills glory, but because good can then flow in and conjoin itself to truth, and thus man can be regenerated, 3539, ill. 4347. Good and truth from the Lord can flow in into a humble and contrite heart, which acknowledges that in itself there is nothing but evil, and in the Lord nothing but good ; for in this acknowledg- ment there is the annihilation of self, thus, a state of aversion and absence from self, 3994. They who are averse to all that is evil and false, because it is from themselves, and in the affection of all that is good and true because it is from the Lord, are in humiliation, and in a state of receiving good and truth from the Lord, 4956. A merely external humiliation is not the humiliation of acknowledgment, for the latter cannot exist without the correspondence of the external and in- ternal, and thus their conjunction, 5420. Unless man humbles him- self by acknowledging that he is nothing but evil, he is in merit and self-righteousness ; and as good cannot then flow in he cannot be with- held from the evils of his proprium, 5758. The Lord requires humili- ation and adoration, not for the sake of himself, but for the sake of man, who is thus brought into a state of receiving good, and separated from the love of self and its evils, 5957, 8263, 8271. They who are in less humiliation speak of the grace of the Lord, they who are in more humiliation of his mercy, 5929. See Grace. He who is in genuine humiliation puts off all power of thinking or domg anything of himself, and relinquishes himself entirely to the divine ; thus, he ap- proaches the divine ; 6866. Supplication is only heard so far as there is humiliation in it, for it is the humiliation and not the words that are perceived in heaven, 7391. They who are in humiliation acknowledge A yl 348 HUM 1 and perceive themselves to be damned, only that the Lord has received them, 7418. The humiliation of the inhabitants of Mars is so internal and profound, that they believe themselves, of themselves, to be in hell, and dare not look to the Lord until they are sensibly elevated by Him, 7478. There are two conditions in humiliation, the acknowledgment of self as altogether evil and as nothing in respect to the divine, and the acknowledgment of the divine as infinitely good, 7640. Humilia- tion is not given with the evil, because they are in the love of self; when predicated of them in the word, it denotes obedience, 7640. In genuine humiliation, thus, in genuine divine worship, there is nothing to obstruct from the loves of self and the world, 8873. The posterity of Jacob could be in external humiliation more than other people, but still they were not in internal, 4293, ill. 9377^ They who truly worship the Lord are in humiliation, and their proprium, which is all that ob- structs the reception of the divine, recedes from them ; in this consists the glory of the Lord, and this is the end of all worship, 10,646. 2. Humiliation of heart causes the knees to bend, and if it be stronger and more interior, the whole body to fall prostrate, 4215, ill. 5323, 7418, 9377. Abraham's bowing himself to the earth when the three angels were present denotes the effect of humiliation with the Lord m consequence of perception from the divine flowing in, 2153. His rising and bowing to the Hittites, when desirous of purchasing the field of Ephron, denotes the gladness of the Lord on account of his worthy reception by the new spiritual church, 2926—2928, 2950. The servant of Isaac bending himself and bowing down before Jehovah on account of his reception by Rebecca, denotes joy and gladness of heart on account of the influx of love, and the conjunction of truth with good, 3117, 3118, compare 3068, 3091. Jacob's message to Esau, on returning from his sojourn with Laban, denotes the conde- scension and humiliation of truth before good, 4245, 4254. His bowing himself seven times to the earth while he approached his brother, de- notes the complete humihation and submission of all things in the natural man to good flowing in, 4347. The handmaids and their children approaching and bowing themselves, denotes the submission of scientific sensuals and their truths, 4360. Leah and her children bowing themselves, and Joseph and Rachel bowing themselves, de- notes the submission of the exterior affection of faith and the truths thereof, and of the interior, 4361, 4362. The sheaves of his brethren bowing themselves to Joseph's sheaf, denotes the humiliation of all before the divine human, and the submissive reference of all doctrine thereto, 4687—4689. His brethren bowing themselves with their faces to the earth before Joseph in Egypt, denotes, first, exterior hu- miliation, and afterwards interior humiliation and submission 5420 5676, 5682, 6567. The Egyptians bending the knee before him, de- notes acknowledgment by faith and adoration, 5323. At length total submission, 6138. Joseph himself bowing to Israel when he led Ephraim and Manasseh to receive his blessing, denotes the humiliation of the new will and understanding, not from themselves, but from the influx of the internal man, 6266. The Israehtes bowing themselves, and worshiping, when Moses and Aaron were sent for their deliverance, denotes the humiliation of those who belong to the spiritual church on emerging from temptations, 7068, 7943. ^^r£^ HUR 349 3. The Lord's state of humiliation occurred when the internal acted remotely in the external, when the human essence was not yet united to the divine, 1785, ill. 6866. The Lord worshiped the Father and prayed to him, when he was in a state of humiliation, or in the infirm human derived from the mother ; so far as he put this off, and put on the divine, he was in another state, which is called his state of glorifi- cation, ill. 1999. The state of the Lord in the human derived from the mother is called his state of humiliation ; his state in the divine, that of glorification, 2265. The Lord was so far in humiliation as he was in the human not yet made divine ; but so far as he was in the human made divine he could not be in humiliation, for so far he was God and Jehovah, 6866. He was in humiliation in the human not yet made divine, because it was evil, and this could not approximate to the divine without humiliation, 6866. See Lord. HUNDRED [cew^M/w]. See Numbers. HUNGER, to, [esurire^, is to desire good from affection, briefly demonstrated, 4017, 4958. To hunger and thirst is predicated of those who desire good and truth but do not yet possess them, briefly sk. 10,227. To eat and not be satisfied is not to receive the good and truth of faith, briefly sh. 10,283. See Famine, Food, to Eat. HUNT, to [venari], in general terms, denotes to persuade, in particular, to allure others by accommodating their cupidities, &c., sh. 1 1 78. Nimrod, a mighty hunter, denotes those who make internal religion external, ill. 1175 — 1179. In a good sense, a hunter denotes those who are in the affection of truth, 3309. Hunters denote those who teach from scientific truths and also from doctrinals, 3309. To hunt is to teach from the affection of truth, and, in the opposite sense, to persuade from the affection of what is false, sk. 3309. Hunting denotes the good of life grounded in sensual and scientific truths ; be- cause, by hunting is to be understood such things as are taken in hunting, as rams, kids, goats, &c., 3309. Hunting also denotes truth derived from good, because Esau of whom it is predicated, denotes the good of the natural man, 3501. His going to the field to hunt denotes the endeavour of the affection to procure truth, 3508. Jacob's simulating his person and serving Isaac with venison instead of Esau, denotes the way of procuring truth by domestic good provided, 3518, and sequel. See Esau, Jacob. To fish is to instruct in the ex- ternal truths of the church ; to hunt is to instruct in its internal truths, 10,.582. HUR [Chur]. Moses signifies divine truth proceeding immediately from the Lord; Aaron divine truth proceeding mediately; and Hur divine truth proceeding again, by the medium of the latter ; this order of succession ill. 8603. Aaron signifies the doctrine of truth from the Word, and Hur the truth of doctrine, both sustaining the internal sense, 9424. Bczaleel was the grandson of Hur, 10,329. See Bezaleel, Gold. HURT [Icesio], Man can only do hurt to what he knows and be- lieves ; hence he cannot hurt the internal of the church when he falls into mere externals, 6595. The laws in Exodus xxi., in the internal sense, treat of those who hurt or destroy the truth of faith or the good of charity either in themselves or others ; what punishment accrues to them, and how restitution is to be made, 8970 and sequel. When hurt is done to the truth of faith, the spiritual life is affected, and at l\ 350 HYP IDE 351 \\ I length perishes, 9007. The hurt or extinction of interior love is de- noted by burning, of exterior love by wounding ; the law of retaliation ill. 9055, 9056 and sequel. Hurt may be done to the internal man as well as to the external, 9055. See Bruise, Disease. HUSBAND [marilus]. When the church is described by a man (vir — the male man) and wife, man denotes the intellectual faculty or truth, and wife the voluntary faculty or good ; when by man (homo — the human being) and wife, man denotes the good of love or love, and wife the truth of faith, or truth, 915, 718, 2517. Whenever a hus- band is named in the Word he signifies good, and wife truth ; but when the husband is called man (vir) he signifies truth and the wife good, 1468, 2581. Husband and wife signify good and truth, because the church is really the marriage of good and truth, and the husband repre- sents good, because good is in the first place, 3236, ill. and sh. 4434. Females, women, and wives, denote affections of truth when the husband is mentioned along with them, but when he is called a man (vir) they denote affections of good, 4510. Husband and wife are so called when celestial good and truth are predicated, but man and wife, or rather man and woman, when the subject is spiritual, 4823. In the opposite sense, man and wife denote the false and its evil, husband and wife the evil and its false, 4823, 4843. In the celestial church, the husband is in affection and the wife in the knowledge of good and truth ; in the spiritual church, the contrary, ill, 8994. In the more interior or celes- tial sense of the Word, husband denotes good, and the Lord himself from divine good is called the husband and bridegroom of his church, 9198, 9961. The union of divine good itself and divine truth itself was represented by Abraham and Sarah as husband and wife, 1 468, 1901, 2063, 2065, 2172, 2173, 2198, 2904, 3077, 7022; the same in the rational or divine human, by Isaac and Rebecca, 3012, 3013, 3077. See Marriage, Man. HUZ. See Nahor. HYACINTH [hi/acinthinum]. See Colours. HYDE [corium]. See Skin. HYPOCRITES [ki/pocritce~\, are such as outwardly appear in truth as to doctrine, and in good as to life ; but inwardly neither believe any- thing true nor will anything good, 4424. Deceitful hypocrites are sig- nified by him who entered in and had not on a wedding garment ; the sphere of mutual love causes such to precipitate themselves from heaven, when it appears as though they were cast out, 2132. There are de- ceivers and hypocrites within the church who are in peril beyond others of being damned to eternity, in consequence of being in evil and in good at the same time, 2426. It is provided by the Lord that evil and good should not be commixed, for if they were commixed, man would perish ; they are not far from being conjoined with hypocrites, yet the Lord provides that such shall not be the case ; hence, in the other life, hypocrites suffer beyond all others, 2269. If the internal is not repre- sented in the external act or look as its image, it is an indication that the external is put on by mere habit, or else of hypocrisy, 3934 ; ill, 3527' Hypocrites by their influx induce pain in the teeth, and in the bone of the temples, &c.; from experience, 5720. Hypocrites who have continually meditated evil to others, and sought to accomplish it by secret means, become infernal genii, and act in the most subtle manner by influx into the voluntary part, 8622. See Genii. They are hypocrites and deceivers who simulate charity and faith, or whatever else in externals that appears as if it were from the Divine, ill, 8870, 10,286. See Likeness, Engraving. The inmost will and inmost thought of the hypocrite are in agreement and consent, for the one is evil and the other false ; but the consent does not appear before men, in consequence of another will and another thought appearing in exter- nals, ill. 8885. Evils effected by deceit are the worst of all, for deceit is like a poison which infects the whole mind, penetrating even to its interiors, and destroying all that is human, 9013. Hence poison in the Word denotes deceit or hypocrisy, and venomous serpents denote the deceitful or hypocrites, sh. 9013. Deceit, in the Word, denotes hypocrisy, being so called when piety or charity, or innocence, is simu- lated, sh. 9013. Hypocrites cannot do the work of repentance, thus sins cannot be remitted to them, and that this is denoted by the sin against the Holy Spirit, 9013, 9014. To will evil, and yet speak what is true and do good, is from hypocrisy, using truth and good as means ; and when these means are withdrawn in the other life the man rushes into all the evils of his will, and defends them by his understanding, ill, 10,122. See Deceit, Simulation. HYSSOP [hi/s8opus], denotes external truth as a medium of puri- fication and the external truth of intelligence; cedar, the internal, sh, 7918. See Cedar. I. IDEA. 1 . In the other life, the whole quality of a man is exqui- sitely perceived from a single idea of his thought, for every idea is an image of the man, 301, 803, ill. 1008, ill. 10,298. Ideas are com- posed of the innumerable things conceived and thought concerning the person or thing represented by them ; hence they are not simple, but filled with innumerable particulars, 1008, 2473, 4946, ill. from experience, 6200, 6599 and sequel, especially 6613 — 6619, 6622, 6623. The idea of one thing also flows into the idea of another, and thus if any impurity is present in idea, it diffuses itself like a black grain in water, 1008. The holy and profane adhere together in every idea of thought with those who profane truth, ill. 1008; see below, 6625. They who are in divine ideas, never subsist in the objects of external sight, but continually see internal things from them and in them, 1807, compare 1430; see below, 2520, 5614. Ideas are displayed in the other life like pictured images, which, with the good, are again and again opened, and objects more and more beautiful presented to view therein, 1869, 1870. The opening of the internal sight and its ideas is comparatively like the opening and extension of the external sight by the microscope, 1869. As ideas ascend to spirits and angels, they are divested with wonderful quickness of all that is corporeal and material, and hence nothing but what is sweet and beautiful is per- ceived in heaven, 1875, 1876, 3507, 3607. The first ideas are taken from the objects of the senses, and are properly called material, but there is a more interior sight by which these are regarded, 1953. The ideas of the angels are turned iato representatives in the world of spirits ^maim 352 IDE and with man while he sleeps ; one subject of discourse also admits of indefinite varieties in the representation, according to the state of man and the spirits about him, 1980, 1981. The ideas of men are most obscure compared with the perceptions into which they come when worldly and corporeal things are put off, for they are only the general forms of myriads of particulars, 2367. An idea of truth without good is obscure compared with an idea of truth from good, ilL 2425, 2935 ; see below, 3607. The ideas of the interior memory flow into the things of the exterior memory as into their vessels, thus into the words of all languages and all the objects of the external senses, 2470, 2471. Thought and speech exist from the ideas of the interior memory, and these ideas constitute a universal language into which men come after the death of the body, 2472, 5614, 5648, 6987. The intercourse of spirits and angels, and their commerce with men, is by means of the universal language of ideas ; and such is the influx of this language, that spirits discourse with man in his vernacular tongue as their own, 2470. The ideas into which men come after death are derived from states and their progressions, which are proper to the interior memory, not from times and spaces, 4901 ; how they who are in any charity put off natural ideas, 4944 ; and how they are vastated whose ideas are defiled, 7090, compare 2520. Myriads of ideas pertaining to the interior memory flow into one of the exterior, ill. 2473, ill. 6622. The ideas and ends of man's life, contained in his interior memory, consti- tute the book of his life by which he is judged after death ; and there is not the least minimum wanting of all that he had thought or intended from earliest infancy, 2474, 2475. Some idea derived from worldly things, or the analogies of worldly things, always adheres to divine truths with man, ill. 2520. Man*s intellectual or immaterial ideas which pertain to the interior man, are from the light of heaven; but his natural or material ideas from the light of the world, its time and space, 3223, 3224, 4408; see below, 5212, 7290. It is impossible to have any idea of doctrinals, or even of the most secret arcana of faith, which is not grounded in some natural and sensual idea ; and that such is the case can be visibly shewn to man in the other life, 3310 end, 5510. No divine truth can be received by man except in some rational and even natural idea ; how erroneous it is to imagine that anything per- taining to faith can be received otherwise ; the reason why some are not willing to believe this, 3394. Man can form no idea of anything except from time and space, and the angels from state ; in both cases from what is finite only, and hence from appearances, 3404, 3938, 4901, 7381 ; how the idea of time is changed into the idea of state, &c. 5146. The ideas of those who are in truth only when they come into the other life appear closed, so that the light of heaven can only flow-in in common ; but the ideas of those who are in good appear open, and resemble a little heaven, 3607 ; see below, 4946, 6620. The idea of a thing in common must necessarily precede the idea of particulars ; thus interior or particular truths are insinuated into common or exterior truths, 3819, 3820. The understanding of a thing is according to the idea of it, and the idea of it is varied according to affection, 3825. The ideas received by means of the senses are contained in the memory like visual objects, and their reproduction gives birth to the imagination ; under interior light they give birth to thought, but still as visual forms. I IDE 353 4408. The ideas which men receive before regeneration are neces- sarily mixed with falses and fallacies, arising from their sensual origin, 455 1 . In every idea of good and truth, there is the whole image of heaven, and when such ideas are opened and beheld by the interior sight, they appear like a universe leading to the Lord, who is the all of heaven, 4946, 6620 end. Ideas formed from the light of the world are called scientifics, but ideas formed from the light of heaven are truths, 5212. Ideas from scientifics, whether interior or exterior, are called material ; but ideas of thought, intellectual or immaterial ; the ascent and extraction of ideas as education advances «7/., 5497, ^774. Interior ideas cannot appear to man in their real quality, because they fall into material ideas without his knowledge ; still, they who are in good think from interior ideas, 5614, 7381, ill. 7506, with which com- pare 6626. When truths are filled into material ideas or scientifics, which is effected by influx, the thought extends itself far and wide and reaches to the societies of heaven, 6004, seriatim 6599 and sequel. The extension of ideas is to the societies of heaven in appearance, but it is really from them, 6600, compare 8794, 9962. When influx and the extension of thought was represented to the author, his material ideas appeared as in the middle of a kind of wave, but only so when he thought above sensual things or abstractly, 6200, 6201. All thought, however continuous it appear in consequence of the rapidity of its suc- cession, is made up of distinct ideas, which follow one another like the words of language, and are themselves the words of spirits and angels, 6599, 6624, 6987; see below, 10,298, 10,604 ; and as to certain spirits who first appeared to think in common and not distinctly, 4329. The ideas of thought are varied, multiplied, and divided, according as man is associated with societies ever new and ever various in the procedure of regeneration ; thus his illumination or perception of new truths con- tinually increases, 6610. Angelic ideas open like clouds over the ideas of spirits which are below them, and the influx of myriads only appear as one and simple to those who are in grosser thought, 6614. The ideas of the superior angels flow in like flames of light, not always apparently, but so shown to the author, 6615. The quality of an idea when it is closed shown as a black point, and when it is open like a lucid mirror in which all heaven and the Lord himself is represented, 6620. The ideas of critics who are more solicitous about words than the sense of things, are formed as of closed lines or a texture of threads, 6621. The ideas of those who live evilly are filthy and defiled, and they draw them into association with hell, in the same manner as the good are associated with heaven, 6625, 6626. The angels of heaven speak from intellectual or immaterial ideas, but spirits from ideas of the imagination or material ideas, 6987. Angelic ideas are such that they refer all things to the human form, ill, 7847. The ideas of the spiri- tual angels are all derived from truth made good by life, and those of the celestial angels are all from good, 9186. Nothing enters into the internal man except by intellectual ideas, which are reasons, for the internal ground which receives what enters therein is the rational faculty illustrated, 7290. The love or affection of the will flows into the intel- lectual ideas, and vivifies and affects them as by inspiration, thus the thought and the will make one, 8885. The form of celestial thought is such that those things which are most intimately loved are in the midst, A A 354 IDE in the light of the internal sight, things comparatively obscure are round about, and such as man rejects, which are opposites, verge down- wards, 8885. The ideas of thought in the internal man are spiritual, for they are without objects such as appear in the material world; hence, while man is in the world he does not perceive what is passing m the internal man, but what is in the external, 10,237, 10,240. The external man is first purified because the truths of faith can only come to manifest perception in natural ideas, 10,237. Spiritual ideas cannot be comprehended in the natural, but they produce and make them by influx, according to correspondences, 10,237, 10,400, 10,604. The ideas from which man thinks even while in the world are intellectual or immaterial, and after death, when he is a spirit, they become words, 10,298, 10,604. Natural ideas are spiritual, but so manifested to the natural man by putting on another form and habit, 10,551. Spiritual ideas are turned into natural ideas and fall into words, according to correspondence when man speaks, 10,604. Man can form no concep- tion of spiritual ideas, except by thought and reflection upon the begin- nings of his own thoughts, ill, 10,604. The principal of all ideas is the conception and thought concerning God, for it enters into all reli- gion, and is the means of conjunction with heaven, 10,736; the idea of the angels concerning the Lord, 5256, 6380, 8705, 9303 ; and of the inhabitants of a certain earth, 10,737. See Thought, Under- standing, Speech, Memory. ^ T^^ ^^^* ^^ idolatry, or of any external object in the letter of the Word, falls away and perishes when the idea of the internal sense contained m it is apprehended, 1430, 1807, 1874, 1876, 2015, 2534 f^ w^'^i^^u ?^ *^ ^^^"^ *^® ^^®*^ contained in the internal sense of the Word that its external is formed, insomuch that its every word and letter is inspired, 1870—1876. When the ideas of men remain in the external sense, the internal is respectively obscure, 2333 ; especially if the ideas are confined to the representatives of the Jewish church, 2534 end. When the Word is read by man in the external sense, the words and ideas are wonderfully changed to the apprehension of angels, and this according to correspondences, 2333, 7847. The angels instantly come into a spiritual idea answering to the sense of the letter, for a material idea perishes at the threshold of heaven, 10,568. It is by the sudden and constant translation of natural ideas into spiritual that the Word is the means of conjunction between angels and men, and thus between heaven and the world, 3507, 5648. Those who are in good think from the ideas of the internal sense while they are in the world, though internal ideas do not come to their manifest apprehen- sion, ill. 5614.

Al IS real that is from the Lord, and all that is not from the Lord, thus all that appears in hell, is unreal ; by the unreal is meant that which is not what it appears to be, 4623. Evil spirits have IDO 355 f L the art of presenting various illusions before those who have recently come from the world, with the view of persuading them that all things, even in heaven, are ideal, 4623 end. Nothing in the universe is any- thing, that is, a thing, unless it is from divine good by divine truth, 5075. It is a fallacy of natural sense to believe that there are simple substances called monads and atoms ; for whatever is within the ex- ternal sensual, the natural man believes to be such as it appears, or nothing ; other fallacies enumerated, 5084. Whatever flows from the Lord into man passes through his interiors to the very extreme where it can be sensibly apprehended ; if this extreme or sensual part be occupied with fallacies and appearances, the truths that flow in are turned into the like and formed by them, 7442. Divine truth which proceeds from the Lord, and by which all things exist, is a substantial and real entity which fills the heavens, as the light and heat of the sun fill the world ; what a fallacy it is to conceive of the Word as of the thought and speech of man, 9407, 9410. See Truth. IIM. See ZiiM. IDLENESS. See Ease. IDOLATRY [idololalriuni], 1. They who affect external sanctity on purpose, or practise it from habit, so far as internal worship is not in it, are prone to worship whatever god or idol favours their cupidity, 1094. When worship is made to consist in externals it is idolatrous, and hence the worship of the Jews was no less idolatrous than that of the Canaanitish gentiles, only that they acknowledged Jehovah as their God, 1094, 1205. Idolatries are both exterior and interior, and they who are in external worship without internal rush into the former, they with whom internal worship is defiled into the latter, 1205. Interior idolatries are the falses and cupidities which they who have defiled internal worship love and adore, and which hold the same place as the gods and idols of the gentiles, 1205. All worship that is not derived from faith and charity is idolatry, 1211. A church which is only external is not a church but an idolatry, 1242. An idolatrous church is much worse than an idolatry not of the church, for it is internal idolatry, 1328. There are three universal kinds of idolatry, namely, the love of self, the love of the world, and the love of pleasure ; and all worship is idolatrous in which one or other of these ends is entertained, 1357, 4444. These three universal kinds of idolatry are internal and profane, but there is a fourth which is only external and in which God may be acknowledged though he is not known, and in which the life of charity may be lived, 1363, 1370. The doctrinals, the morals, and even the idols of the upright gentiles are accepted by the Lord, and left whole to them as the vessels of celestial things, which they are qualified by charity to receive, ill. 1832, 4211. They who have worshiped idols and yet lived in charity easily receive the goods and truths of faith in the other life, and they are not instantly deprived of what they have esteemed holy from infancy, but by degrees, 1992, 9972. See Nations. Unless external rituals are representative, that is, unless the internal be in them, they are idolatrous, 2177, 2722. When a church declines from representative worship to idolatry, its representatives put on the opposite signification, and some devil is evoked from hell and worshiped in place of God, 4444. Men can only worship that of which they have some perception and thought from a sensible form, and in which they can A A 2 356 IDO imagine a divine presence ; hence the worship of idols by the gentiles, and of men after death either as gods or saints, in consequence of the divine human not being known and acknowledged, 473ti ; as to the worship of saints by Christians, 9020. The principle of idolatry is not the worship of idols and graven images, but external worship without internal, ilL 4825. They who are in the loves of self and the world are internal idolaters, and external idolatry is derived from these loves, 4825. The idolatrous principle is external and internal ; in general, it is the worship of what is false and evil, 4826 ; see below, 8932. The king was worshiped in ancient times as the guardian of the law of the kingdom, which was derived from divine truth ; so far as he ceased to be the guardian of the law, or attributed anything but its guardianship to himself, such worship became idolatry, 5323. It is idolatry to make a god of anything derived from the self-intelligence or from the volun- tary proprium, ilL 8871, 8941, 9391, 9424, 10,406. It is idolatry to make evils and falses into gods, that is, to make them appear in external form like goods and truths, ill. and sh, 8932, 8941, 9146, 9391, 9424, It is idolatrous to make rites, judgments, statutes and precepts objects of worship in the external form and not in the internal, ill. 9391. lie who is in external worship when his heart and soul is not in heaven, but in the world, and who does not worship the holy things of the Word from celestial love, is in the practise of idolatry, 9391 end. Doctrine taken from the external sense of the Word, with- out the internal, is only idolatrous, ill. 9424. Such doctrines applied by man's own intelligence in favour of self-love, are denoted in the Word by idols, by molten images, and by things graven, sh. 10,406. Four kinds of idols are mentioned in the Word, namely, of stone, of wood, of silver, and of gold; their signification br, ex. 10,503. Idols of gold were the worst of all, because they denote evils of life derived from the love of self, as well as evils of doctrine, 10,503. In general, idols, strange gods, and molten and graven images denote religious principles excluded from the proprium ; for whatever principles are derived therefrom are only idols, being dead in themselves though they are adored as living, 8941 end. 2. llistorrj. The nations with whom the first ancient church existed became, for the most part, idolatrous, and in Egypt and Baby- lonia they declined to magic, 1328, 4680, 9391 ; compare 1195. Idol- atry took its rise from the use of objects representing celestial and spi- ritual things, which came to be worshiped when charity perished in the church, and with it all acknowledgment of the heavenly life, 2722, 4580. When the internal worship of the ancient church became external and at length idolatrous, every nation set up its own god, and the Hebrews were only distinguished from others by retaining the name of Jehovah for their god, 1343, 3667, 3732 ; in like manner some other families in Syria, as appears from Balaam, 1992, 7097. The idolatrous nations derived the names of their gods from the various names given to the Lord in the ancient church on account of their signification 3667 ; and according to the appearance of divine things in effects, 4162; or the divine attributes, 6003. See Name. The gods and demigods of the ancients were also derived from their manner of writing by the intro- duction of abstract things in the character of persons discoursing, to whom appropriate names were also assigned, &c., 4442. When the "■wp IDO 357 ancient manner of worship ceased to be representative and became idolatrous, the use of representatives was forbidden, 2722 ; and after- wards limited to those at Jerusalem. See Representatives. The priuciple of the ancient church was to worship God in human form, thus the Lord; but when they declined from good to evil, they began to worship representatives, as the sun, the moon, the stars, groves, statues, and God himself in the form of various idols, 9193. The ancient church which became idolatrous was spread through many kingdoms in Asia and Africa, especially Assyria, Mesopotamia, Syria, Ethiopia, Arabia, Lybia, Egvpt, Philistsea, and the whole land of Canaan on both sides Jordan, 1238, 2385, 4680, 7097, 9391. The idolatrous worship to which the ancient church declined in Syria is signified by Terah, 1353, 1365, 1367; its three internal varieties, by his sons, Abram, Nahor, and Aaron, 1357, 1358; and its external by Lot the son of Ilaran, consequently by Moab and Ammon descended from him, 1363, 1364. The nations descended from Terah were idolatrous, 1357, 1358, 1363. The Jews were more idolatrous than other nations, and regarded their external rituals as constituting divine worship, 3479. The Jews were able to be kept in communication with heaven by their idolatry, because it was merely external, 3480, ill, 4847. From the historical and prophetical parts of the Word, it is obvious that the Jews were prone to the worship of idols, and from the internal sense it is manifest that they were continually in idolatry, 4825. Idolatry was so severely interdicted to the Jewish nation, because the adoration of other gods and of images would have destroyed the repre- sentative of the church with them, 8875 end. The Jews, in heart, remained in the idolatry of Egypt, though they confessed Jehovah with their lips, 9391. The lot of those from the ancient church who de- clined to idolatry and of idolatrous Christians in the other life, 2605. The serpent of brass was holy in the time of Moses, but when externals were worshiped it became profane and was destroyed, 2722. 3. Texts explained. The worship of idols is not mentioned in the Word as profane in itself, but as signifying internal idolatry which is really such, 1370. The families or nations of Canaan, the Jebusites, Amorites, &c., denote so many various kinds of idolatry, especially with the Jews, 1205, compare 1242. The confusion of tongues and disper- sion at the building of Babel, denotes the end of internal worship, and the church made idolatrous, 1327, 1328. The death of Haran denotes the end of interior idolatry, and the idolatrous church made wholly external, 1365 — 1367. The slaughter of Sheckhem, and the men of his city, by the hand of Simeon and Levi, denotes all the truth of doc- trine that remained from antiquity perishing when the representative of a church was instituted with the Jews, 4425, 4430, 4443, 4500. The sons born of whoredom to Judah, denote the false and evil principles, and finally the idolatrous state into which the Jews came, 4825—4827 and context. The commandment of the decalogue, " Thou shalt not have any other gods before my faces, &c.," denotes that truths are only to be thought of as from the Lord, and that goods and truths from him are not to be simulated in externals, ill. and sh. 8867 — 8873. Thou shalt not make before me gods of silver and gods of gold denotes falses and evils not to appear in externals as goods and truths, ill. 8932. The founder confounded by the graven image, the graven images to be 358 IGN * broken in all the earth, and similar passages, denote the doctrines and artifices of self-mtelligence, 8869. The idols of silver and the idols of gold, to be cast to the moles and the bats, denotes the falses and evils ot worship with those who are in falses and evils, thus who are in dark- ness, 8932, 9424. The workman making a graven image and the founder overlaying it with gold, and casting silver chains, denotes doc- trine trom self-intelligence appearing as good and a connection as it were with truths, which are fallacies and appearances, 8932, 9424 ; Uius a religion from the proprium, and adoration of it as divine, 894 1 The vessels of gold and silver taken from Jerusalem, and Belshazzar and his lords drinking wine from them and praising the gods of gold and silver, &c., denotes the truths and goods of the church profaned by evils and falses 8932. Israel setting up kings and princes, and making Idols of their sdver and their gold, denotes the truths and goods of the ^urch dissipated by falses and evils, 9146. The golden calf made iu Uoreb by the Israehtes, denotes worship from natural delight only in which that people were principled, ill, and sh, 9391, compare 10,503. Ihe golden calf made by Aaron in the absence of Moses, denotes the derivation of such worship from the external sense of the Word without the intenial ///. 9424. The covering of the graven images of silver, and the clothing of the molten images of gold, denotes the scieutifics of lalse and evil principles acknowledged and worshiped for truths and goods, 9424.

In the ignorance of childhood, and whenever innocence is in it there is holiness, 1557. Even with the angels who are in the highest light of intelligence and wisdom, holiness dwells in ignorance, for they know and acknowledge that they are nothing of themselves • not so m the case of the Lord, 1557, 4295, 10,227. They who are ignorant of genuine good and truth think the good they do is their own, and that the truth they think is their own, ill. 1712, but that they are not condemned therefore if they think so in simplicity, 5759 The age of instruction, and thus of the good of ignorance is from the tenth to the twentieth year, ill. 2280. See Good (4, 9).

They who are regenerating come into ignorance when their state is on the eve of changing from truth to good, insomuch that they know not what prin- ciples are to be retained and what relinquished, 4251. What ignorance prevails at this day concerning reformation and regeneration, ill. 5398, 8974 end. What ignorance prevails concerning felicity, good works, &c., 6392. The reason why such universal ignorance prevails con- cerning the doctrine of love and faith in the Lord, is the defect of charity, ill, 9409 ; thus the evils of the loves of self and the world, 10,319. With what difficulty the correspondence of internal and external things can be explained, in consequence of the prevailing igno- rance and blindness, ill, 9632. How all have the faculty of wisdom, and may become wise by separating themselves from the loves of self and the world, and looking to the Lord, 10,227. ILLEGITIMATE CONJUNCTIONS, of truth with good and of good with truth, are described in the Word by whoredoms, ill. by the case of Joseph and the wife of Potiphar, 4989. The nature of legiti- mate and illegitimate conjunctions explained, and how they are either dissolved or confirmed, 9182 — 9184. Illegitimate conjunction in the spiritual sense is the conjunction of truth with some affection of selfish or worldly love, how it is made legitimate, 9184. ILLUMINATION. The author's sensible perception of intellec- tual light as an illumination illustrating the substances of interior sight ; how it was changed and moderated while he thought, spoke, and wrote, &c., 6608. That illuminations, the times of the day, &c., denote illus- tration, 8106—8108, and citations. See Illustration. ILLUSIONS. Weak and credulous persons imagine they see things in visions, which are mere illusions induced by certain spirits, 1967. Evil spirits have the art to exhibit various illusions before those who have recently come into the world of spirits, with the view of per- suadmg them that all things are ideal, even in heaven ; the real and the ideal explained, 4623. See Phantasy. ILLUSTRATION, Illumination. 1. They who come out of vastation are elevated into a state of light, which is a state of illustra- tion and refreshment, ill. 2699, compare 6865, 8367. Illustration is from influx opening the sight of the rational man, and it proceeds by heaven from the Lord, 2701. The illumination of the rational man, which is from the Lord's divine human, produces the affection of truth, 2716—2718, ill. 3094. Illustration is from instruction, 3071. The illustration and order of the natural man is from divine good flowing in, 3086. All illustration is from good by means of truth, and is according to the quality of the truth which receives and manifests it, 3094; see below, 3508, 4214, 10,400, 10,551. The illustration of good proceeds further than its own truth, and produces the inferior affection of truth, 3094, 3096, 3097. Good flows in by way of the soul, and proceeds through the rational man to the scientific and /- ■wr 360 ILL ILL sensual, and there effects illustration, 3128. Illustration is from divine truth, and consequently where divine truth is, 3137. Illustration is from the influx of the light of heaven into the light of the world, but it cannot be given without affection, 3138. The illustration and apper- ception of truth are from the correspondence of these lights, and when they do not correspond there is an apperception of the false as truth, 3138, ill. 4402, 5128, 5133, 5208, G8C5, particularly 5427, 5428. When these lights, or when the rational man and the natural do not correspond, darkness instead of illustration is predicated of the natural mind, ill, 3493. The natural mind cannot receive illustration from the rational without knowledges, for knowledges are the receiving vessels of good and truth, 3508 ; see below, 6222. When man suffers himself to be illuminated by the Word, the obscurity of the natural man is made lucid, for it receives the influx of light from heaven, 3708. All illustra- tion is from the Lord, and is received by good ; hence it is according to the quality of the good, 4214. They are in no illustration who are able to reason concerning good and truth unless they are also in good, for the faculty of imagination and perception is receptive of light both from heaven and the world, 4214, 6865. Illustration is from the influx of good, or the divine which proceeds from the Lord, into the natural man, or the truth of the natural man, 4234, 4235. Interior truths cannot be conjoined with good without illustration flowing by way of the internal man into the external, ill, 4402. He who will not receive illustration, but obstinately defends his falses, is a sensual man, and the light of heaven is turned into darkness with him, 5128. When sensual things are made subject to the rational mind, they are receptive of light from heaven, and when the light of heaven flows in they come into order and correspondence with it, 5128, 2*//. 5133; compare 8370 and citations. Illustration is at first common, but it becomes more and more particular as the truths of good are insinuated, ill, 5208. Illustration is common before the truths and goods of the natural man are brought into order and correspondence, 5221. The natural man is first illuminated from the interior, when the loves of self and the world are separated from the truths received into the memory, 5270. Truth from the divine is not manifest to those who are in natural light not yet illuminated by celestial light, thus if there be not correspondence between them ; but the interior man sees and perceives whatsoever is in the exterior, 5427, 5428, 5477, compare 3493. When man is regenerated, the naturai mind comes into illustration ; and then the things of heaven appear therein as in their representative images, 5477. The illumination which gives the faculty of apperceiving and understanding truth is the common influx of the light of heaven, 5668. Without the light of heaven, the understanding can no more see than the bodily eye without the light of the world, 6033. They who are in illustration carefully examine the Word, in order to know what is to be believed and done, and compare one part with another ; but none can come into illustral tion who desire truths for any other end, 6222 ; see below, 7233. It is the intellectual part that is illustrated, and it is the light of heaven that flows in from the Lord and illustrates it, 6222. The intellectual faculty of the church, or the illustrated understanding, consists in seeing and perceiving, before any dogma is confirmed, whether it be true or not, and afterwards in confirming it, 6222. The Lord continually flows in 361 I M by the internal man with good and truth ; it is good which imparts life to man, and its heat, which is love ; but truth gives illustration and its light, which is faith, 6564. They who are in illustration from the Lord perceive by intuition into the scientifics which are disposed in order below their interior sight whether a thing is true and susceptible of confirmation or not, 6865. Truth is confirmed by illustration from the Lord when man studies the Word for the sake of learning truths, 7012. They cannot be illustrated who are in externals, but only they who are in the affection of truth, and no others are in the affection of truth but they who are in the good of life, 7012, 8694. The intel- lectual faculty cannot be illustrated unless it be acknowledged that love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour are the principals and essentials of the church, 7233. They who come into illustration do not take falses for truths, because they form their doctrinals from the internal sense of the Word, and the internal sense is not only the sense which lies within the external, but it is that likewise which results from many places of the letter properly collated, 7233. They whose intel- lectual part is illustrated, discern between apparent truths and truths, and especially between falses and truths, 7233. They who come into illustration receive internal faith ; otherwise the faith is only external, ill. 8078. They who are in good and explore the Word for the sake of truth come into illustration and perception, whereby truths are revealed to them, ill. 8694. The revelation of divine truth 'is by the illustration of the understanding, when a man who is in the affection of truth from good reads the Word, ill. 8780. Man comes into illustration and per- ception when he has acquired dominion over the evil of the loves of self and the world by temptations, 8967. They who are illustrated con- cerning truths are those few who are in the doctrine and at the same time in the life of truth, 9186; as to what this doctrine and life con- sists in, 9086, end. They who are illustrated in the genuine truth of faith, see and perceive in themselves whether a thing is true or not, but they who are not illustrated interiorly can only confirm the doctrines of their churches, ex. and ill. 9300. Illustration takes place when the Lord comes in the Word, or is present therewith, 9382, ill. 9405, br. 10,105. Every one is illustrated and informed from the Word accord- ing to his affection of truth and degree of desire, and according to the faculty of receiving, 9382. They who are illustrated are in the light of heaven as to the internal man, for it is the light of heaven which illus- trates man in the truths and goods of faith, 9382, ill. 9383. They who are illustrated or illuminated, understand the Word according to its interiors, and they make for themselves doctrine therefrom, to which they apply the sense of the letter, 9382. Illustration and conjunction with heaven is from the Word because in its first origin it is divine truth, accommodated in form by passing through the heavens, 9382, ill. 9407. They are illustrated who acknowledge that all good and truth are from the Lord, and that nothing good and true proceed from themselves, ill. 9405. They come into illustration who love truth for its own sake, when they collect doctrine from the Word, ill. 9424. The illumination of the mind is from divine truth proceeding from divine good, hence from the Word, 9571. Illustration is predicated of those who are in the faculty of seeing and perceiving the truths and goods which are of faith and charity, 10,201. They who love truth 362 ILL IMA 363 for the sake of truth are in illustration, they who love it for the sake of good are in perception, 10,290. They only receive the Word in its genuine sense who are illustrated, and they only are illustrated who are principled in love and faith, 10,323. The Word cannot be understood in the letter without doctrine made therefrom by the illustrated, 10,324 ; see below 10,548. Influx and illustration are actual elevation into heaven among the angels, and communication there from the Lord, ill. 10,330, ill. 10,400. He whose internal man is opened derives illus- tration from the internal sense of the Word when he reads it, but his illustration is according to his intellectual state, 10,400. All the doc- trinals of the church as regards worship are given by the external of the Word to those who are in illustration, for these, when they read the Word, receive light from heaven by the internal sense, ill. 10,548. Illustration is from the influx of the light of heaven into the know- ledges which are in the memory, and those knowledges are in natural light, 10,551. Influx and illustration proceeds by the intellectual or immaterial ideas of the interior man, thus it is interior thought which illustrates, 10,551. See Idea. The Lord gives those who come into illustration from the Word to understand truths, and not to believe things contradictory, exemplified by the passion of the cross, 10,659. They who turn themselves to the Lord and to heaven receive influx thence, and are in illustration, and thus they have the perception of truth in themselves, ilL 10,702. They are illustrated from the Word who read it from the love of truth and the life of truth, but not they who read it from the love of glory, of fame, of honour, and of gain, 9382, 10,551. They are illustrated by the hght of heaven, and see what others do not, who are in the aifection of knowing truths, and who preserve in thought the distinction between the internal and ex- ternal man, 5822. The time is about to come when there will be illus- tration, 4402. 2. " God shall enlarge Japhet," denotes illustration, because illus- tration is the enlargement as it were of the bounds of wisdom and intelligence, 1101, compare 3908. Ishmael preserved and made into a great nation denotes the spiritual church after vastation, and its state of illustration and gladness in communication with the immensity of heaven, 2699. The eyes of Hagar opened, and the well of water dis- covered, denotes the interior sight discerning the truths of the Word, 2701, 2702. IshmaeFs dweUing in Paran denotes illumination from the Lord's divine human, 2714. Water drawn for the camels of Isaac's servant, and the camels drinking, denotes instruction, and the illustra- tion therefrom, of the scientifics of the natural man, 3058, 3071, 3094 — 3097. Rebecca's running to the house of her mother to relate what the servant of Isaac had told her, and Laban her brother going out to the fountain, &c., denotes the preparation and illustration of the natural man previous to the conjunction of truth with good, 3128, 3138. Isaac in his old age unable to see, denotes the rational man before the natural is regenerated without illustration therein, 3493, compare 5427. Isaac and Abimelech rising early in the morning after their covenant, denotes the state of illustration into which they come who are in the good of truth when they acknowledge the divine, 3458. Jacob's awaking from his dream, and rising early in the morning, denotes the natural man when the divine human is manifested to him, coming into illustration. 4 i 3715, 3723. Laban rising early in the morning after his covenant with Jacob, denotes the illustration of those who are in common good from the divine natural 4214. The angels of God meeting Jacob, denotes Illustration from divine influx when truth is proceeding to conjunction with good, 4235. Jacob's humble refusal of the men of Esau to aid him, denotes remote or interior illustration accepted, but not the nearer presence of divine influx, 4386, ill. 4402. Pharaoh awaking from his dream, and his spirit troubled in the morning, denotes the illustration 01 the natural man when regenerating, and while goods and truths are not yet m order, 5208, 5218, 5221. Joseph's brethren not knowing him, and not knowing that he understood their language, denotes the state of those who are in the common truths of the church, or in natural light not yet illuminated, that they do not perceive truth from thedivme, &c., 5428, 5477. Joseph's brethren washing their feet, and Joseph coming at noon, denotes the purification of the natural man by the influx of truth and illustration thereupon, 5668—5672. Their dismissal as soon as the morning light was come, denotes a state of illustration discovering the external man somewhat remote from the internal, 5740, 5741. Israel's acknowledgment of the elder-born when he blessed Ephraim and Manasseh, denotes the illumination of those who are m spintual good from internal influx, 6294. Moses privUeged to do signs, denotes the illustration and confirmation of truth, 7012 Jehovah's going before the Israelites in a column of cloud by day and m a column of fire by night, denotes a state of clear illustration tem- pered by external obscurity, and a state of obscurity tempered by illus- tration from good, 8106—81 10. The cloud between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and its giving light to the latter, and being as darkness to the former, denotes the Lord's presence illustrating those who are in truth from good, and the falsification of truth with the evU, 8197. The Israehtes coming to EHm, denotes a state of illus- tration and consolation after temptations, 8367. Moses alone judgina: among the people when they brought their difi^rences before himt to inquire of God, denotes the divine truth arranging the mental state by influx, and illustration therefrom, 8685—8694. Moses teUing the people all the words of the Lord, denotes illustration and information by divme truth, or the presence of the Lord by means of the Word, 9382, 9383. Moses and the elders of Israel ascending the mountain* and their seeing the God of Israel denotes illustration from the genuine doctrine of the Word with all who are in good and truth, 9402—9405. The golden candelabrum and the seven lamps thereof, to give light from the region of its faces, denotes the illumination of the mind from the Lord's divine human, 9547, 9569—9571, 10,201, 10,202. Beza- leel, of the tribe of Judah, filled with the spirit of God to do the works for the tabernacle, denotes those who are in the good of love receptive of illustration, and goods and truths truly represented in externals bv them, 10,329, 10,330, and following numbers. ^ IMAGE \imago]. Man is called an image of God when he arrives at the sixth stage of regeneration, 12, 62. The spiritual man is de- noted by an image, and called a son of light ; but the celestial man is an efiigy or likeness, and is called a son of God, 51, 1013, compare 1737. See Effigy. In every single idea of thought there are innu- merable things variously joined together, so as to constitute a certain 86i IMM form, which is a pictured image of the man, 1008. An image is not a likeness, but only according to the likeness, 1013. An image of God is charity, or love towards the neighbour, but a likeness is love to the Lord, 1013. Interior goods and truths flow into such as are ex- terior, wherein they image themselves, as the interior affections appear in the face, 3691. In hke manner the superior heavens in the inferior, 3739, of the order of which man is an image, 3747. The appearance of life in the body and even in the soul, is only like an image in a mirror, the Lord alone being the real life, 4373. Men are only men so far as they are his images, 8547. The externals of man are formed according to the image of the world, but his internals according to the image of heaven, 6057, 9279, 10,156. When the Lord can flow into the external through the internal, man is called an image of God, 10,156. The case is the same in regard to the world at large as with man who is a world in miniature, 4524 ; and in the case of heaven and its an- gelic inhabitants, 684. The soul or spirit is the very effigy of man ; the body is its representative image, 4835; and that the former is derived from the father, the latter from the mother, 5041. The image vanishes when the effigy itself appears, 4835, 4905. The three heavens are images of the Lord's external man ; and hence, the indefinite or ineffable is an image of the infinite, 1590. See Similitude, Likeness. IMAGINATION. The imaginative faculty is the interior sensual, 3020. The imagination is nothing but the forms and shapes of such things as the senses have apprehended, but wonderfully varied and modified ; and the interior imagination or thought, such things as the sight of the mind apprehends, 3337. The imagination is composed of material ideas, which repose in the memory hke visual images ; these objects appearing more interiorly exhibit the phenomena of thought, 4408. The first imagination is from sensual things, and when these become subject to the rational mind they are illustrated by light from heaven and disposed into order, ill, 5128. The spirits and angels of the planet Jupiter belong, in the Grand Man, to the imaginative faculty of thought, and thus to the active state of the interior parts ; the spirits of our earth to the various functions of the exterior parts, 8630, 8733. IMMANUEL. See Name. IMMATERIAL. The things of the other life, the being and stete of spirits, &c., are involved in much obscurity by the phantasies of the learned concerning immaterial things; the author's experience, 1533, 3891. Ideas called immaterial or intellectual are from the light of heaven, 3223. See Idea. IMMATURE FRUIT. The procedure of good in the regeneration compared with the growth of fruits, how the immature juices and fibres serve for the introduction of the genuine, 3982, compare 5114, 5115. IMMERSION, Immerse, to. The truths of faith are defiled by their immersion in cupidities of evil, ill, by the sons of God taking themselves wives of the daughters of men, 570, and by the giants be- gotten from them, 581, 582. The immersion of the truths of faith in cupidities causes profanation, and also the deprivation of remains, because they are profaned as soon as produced, 571. When the truths of faith are immersed in cupidities every idea of what is holy and true is connected with what is profane and false, and as they can never be separated, man is cast into hell, 582, ill, 794 ; and that such are in \ 1' / . IMP 365 the worst hell, 6348, 8882. The deadly persuasion which takes the place of perception when the doctrinals of faith are immersed in cupidi- ties, was the cause of the extinction and suffocation of the antediluvians, 585 ; ill, by the waters of the deluge, 794. By the medium of con- science separating the intellectual part from the voluntary part of man, it was miraculously provided after the flood that this immersion should not again take place, 863, ill, 5835. By the immersion of the truths of faith, in the cupidities, is meant the confirmation of the evils and falses of the external man by the goods and truths of the internal, 972, ill, 998 and following numbers. They who are regenerating are brought into temptations, when their evils are excited by wicked spirits in consequence of their too much immersion in worldly and corporeal things, 6202. They who are undergoing vastation in the other life are infested by immersions in their evils and falses, yet not so deeply as that influx from heaven cannot prevail ; thus their immersion is regu- lated with the exactness of a balance, ill, 6663. There are inundations of evils and inundations of falses ; immersion in the former is predicated of the voluntary part and the right of the brain, immersion in the latter of the intellectual part and the left of the brain ; the author's experi- ence, 5725, compare 1270. Immersion in falses, when seen in the other life, appears Hke immersion in waters, &c., 6853, 8138 and citations ; and it is the falses themselves which appear as mists, clouds and waters around the hells, 8137, 8138, 8146, 8220. To be im- mersed or drowned in the sea, denotes immersion in scientifics from worldly and terrestrial things, even to the denial of divine truth, 9755. See Sea. Immersion in the red sea denotes the damnation into which they cast themselves who are in the falses of evil, 7877, 8277, ill. 8138 ; and more particularly in what such damnation consists, 8232. See Egypt. Total immersion in Jordan denotes regeneration, 9088, more particularly, 10,239. How the learned immerse their thoughts in terms and distinctions taken from sensual things, and how rarely they apprehend the arcana of heaven, 5089. See Flood. IMITATION, the, of the oil of anointing was forbidden, to signify that good and truth from the Lord are not to be simulated by study and art from the proprium, ill, 10,284, 10,286. The imitation of the incense was forbidden, to signify that divine worship is not to be imi- tated for the gratification of the proprium, ill, 10,309, 10,310. IMMORTALITY. Argument for the existence of the human spirit after death from the connection of man with the divine, which affords him a ground of subsistence above the natural world, 4525, especially 5114, 10,099; more generally, 4364, 5302. Without a knowledge of successive degrees the existence of the soul in human form, after the death of the body, cannot be thought of; the knowledge of the wise ancients on this subject, 10,099; and why it is scarcely mentioned in the Old Testament, 2520. See Man, Soul. IMMUNITY [immunitas], is expressed in the original Hebrew by a word which also signifies cleanness and purity ; predicated of the hands, it denotes the affection of truth and its potency, 2526, 2533 —2538. IMPATIENCE, is a corporeal affection, and so far as man is in it he is in time, but so far as he is not in impatience whilst he is in hea- venly affection he is not in time ; ill, by Jacob's serving for Rachel, 366 IMP 3827. When a man who is living in good is remitted into his proprium or the sphere of his own life, he comes into unrest, vehement desire, indignation, &c., from experience, 5725. IMPLANTATION. The separation of the voluntary and intel- lectual faculties is effected by conscience implanted in the intellectual proprium in charity, ill. 1023, 1024. The conjunction of the internal and external man is by the implantation of the remains of love and charity, which have been stored up from infancy and the succeeding ages, in sciences and knowledges, ill, 1616, ill. and sh. 5897. Conjunction with the Lord is effected by the implantation of faith in love, which takes place as man by means of the doctrines of faith accepts its life, which is charity, 1 737. Unless truths are learned from affection, thus in freedom, they cannot be implanted, much less exalted to the interiors and there made faith, 3145, 4018, ill. 5044, 5508, 5897. Good from the Lord can only be received or implanted in knowledges of truth ; without knowledges, it is not spiritual but natural good like that of infants, ilL 3726. To this end truths must first be learnt and im- planted in the memory by instruction and reflection ; but they are only implanted in the natural man, as in their ground, by a life according to them, ill, 3762, 4018, ill. 9393. Truth cannot be implanted in good without a medium, which is some apparent good, 4243. Truth that is implanted by affection is the recipient of influx from the Lord, and the thoughts are ruled and governed by it, though not always manifestly, ill, 5044. Truth implanted in the will is called internal, and when this is the case it fructifies, and produces new truths continually, 5826. The implantation of truth in good is the means of conjoining the will and the understanding so as to make them one mind, ill, 5835, ill, 10,367. They are saved who suffer goods and truths to be implanted and con- firmed in their interiors, 5899, ill, 6574. When the truth of faith is received together with the affection of charity, it is implanted in the interiors of the mind, and then they are reproduced together, and the truth appears as good, 7835. When man suffers himself to be led by truth to good, he first comes to good in which the truths of faith are liot yet implanted ; but if he then enter upon good, there is a marriage as it were, and by the implantation of truth good becomes Christian good, 8754, ill, S772, ill, 8805—8809. Good is formed by the truths that are implanted in it, and when this is done such truths are the truths of faith, and such good the good of charity, which together con- stitute the church, ill. 9034, 10,367. The truths of doctrine and the goods of life are implanted as the falses of doctrine and the evils of life are shunned, 9246, ill, 9286, 9294, 10,022. The implantation of truth in good, and the implantation of good thence derived, thus plenary liberation from damnation, was represented by the feast of first-fruits and the feast of ingathering with the Jews, 9286, 9287, 9294—9296, 10,.545. See Feasts. Purification and the implantation of truth and good, and their conjunction, was represented by the sacrifices, ill. 10,022, 10,053, 10,057, 10,143. Whatever man has once acknow- ledged remains implanted in him ; hence the danger of profanation, ill. 10,287. Man cannot die because he is implanted in the divine, 5114. By regeneration the proprium of man is implanted in divine good and truth from the Lord, 5115. See Initiation. IMPOSTIIUMES [apo^tematd]. Description of the spirits who J INC 367 correspond to the ulcers, tubercles, or imposthumes, which affect the pleura, the pericardium, the lungs, &c., in the chamber of the breast and how they are punished, 5188. See IMPURITY \itnpuritas], "My covenant shall be in your flesh," denotes the conjunction of the Lord with man in his impurity ; how conscience is thus formed, 2053. Man of himself is nothing but a congenes of the most impure evils, and that these can never be sepa- rated from him, but that he can be detained from evil and held in good by the Lord, 2694, compare 10,239, 3812, 9337. IMPUTATION. Evil is not imputed to those who are not deli- berately conscious of it, whether from a defect of knowledge or ratio- nahty, &c., 1327. Righteousness imputed denotes its increment by temptation-combats, and victories ; in the case of the Lord until he was made righteousness itself, 1813, ill, 9715, its increase ill, 9337. Evils which proceed from the will and not from previous thought are not imputed to man, but if confirmed in the intellectual part they enter mto his proper life, and are imputed to him, ill, 9009, compare, 4172. The evil imputed to man as guilt is what he sees and understands to be evil, and yet does it, ill, 9069. See Evil (4, 5). The genuine doc- trine of the Lord's merit and righteousness, ill, 9715. IN, is a more interior expression than with, thus, " Jehovah was with Joseph," denotes the divine in the human, 5041. INAPTATION. See Inapplication. INAPPLICATION, or, Fitting-in [inaptation]. The influx of good by way of the soul passes through to the natural man, and according as knowledges or scientifics are conjoined and it is inapplied to them, the rational state is formed, ill, 3128, compare 2063. The understanding is illustrated in the degree that truths more and more particular are inapplied or inserted in common truths, ill, 5208. See Initiation, Good (20, 21), Truth. INAUGURATION. The history of Abraham and Isaac in Phi- listia treats of the Lord's inauguration from boyhood, in order to the conjunction of the human essence with the divine, 1502. Spirits are inaugurated into gyres, in order that a unanimity of thought and speech may exist among them ; by what degrees this is accomplished, 5173, 5182. The custom of putting the hands upon the head in inaugura- tions and blessings is derived from ancient times, and was a representa- tive of blessing communicated to the intellectual and voluntary faculties, 6292. Inauguration to represent holy things was done by oil, &c., which signifies the good of love, 9474, 9954, 10,125. The inauguration of Aaron and his sons into the priesthood, represented the glorification of the Lord's human, 9985. The inauguration into the priesthood was effected by anointing and by filling the hands ("consecration"); by the former was represented divine good, and by the latter divine truth therefrom, thus potency, 10,019. See Hand, Priest. INCANTATION. See Magic. INCENSE [sitjitus]. See Odour, Aromatics, Frankincense, Gum, Myrrh. Frankincense, incense, and odours in ointments, were made representative because odour corresponds to perception, 4748. Incense denotes those things of worship which are gratefully perceived; hence, it was made aromatic, sh. 9475. Incenses, or the aromatics of incense, denote confessions, adorations, and prayers from the truths of tm 368 INC faith grounded in love, sh, 9475. Incenses denote affections of truth from good, or spiritual worship which consists in those forms, 10,291, 10,295, ill. 10,298. The aromatics used in incense were different from those of which the anointing oil was prepared ; the former being of the spiritual class, the latter of the celestial, 10,291, ill. 10,295. In both cases, they were of four kinds, on account of the signification of truths in their order, and the one which is named first denotes what is most external, 10,292. The aromatics of incense denote the affection of sensual truth (stacte) ; the affection of interior truth in the natural man (onycha) ; the affection of interior truth in the spiritual man (galbanum) ; and inmost truth, which is spiritual good, or the truth of celestial good (pure frankincense), 10,292 — 10,296, the latter in particular 9993, 10,252. The incense not to be imitated on pain of death, signifies that all divine worship is to be from these affections, and that they who imitate divine worship are separated from heaven, ill. 10,309, 10,310. The altar of incense was representative of the hearing and grateful reception of all things of worship grounded in love and charity from the Lord, thus of such things of worship as are elevated by the Lord, ilL and ah. 10,177. Its being composed of Shittim wood covered with pure gold, denotes the good of the Lord's merit and the good of love from which all worship must rise, 10,178, 10,183, 10,194. Its situation before the veil, &c., denotes the hea- venly life and state in which worship consists, 10,195. The burning of incense upon it denotes the elevation of worship by the Lord, when from love and charity, 10,198, ill. 10,199. The incense offered in the morning when the lamps were dressed, denotes the clear state of love and illustration which renders worship acceptable, 10,200, 10,201. Its being offered in the evening, that worship is still accepted and elevated by the Lord when man passes into an obscure state, and that illustration as far as possible is afforded him, 10,202. No strange incense to be offered on this altar denotes that there is no conjunction except from the acknowledgment and love of the Lord, 10,205. No burnt-offering, nor meat-offering, nor drink-offering to be on it, denotes that there is no genuine worship except in so far as it proceeds from regeneration already effected, ill. 10,206, 10,207. The atonement made upon its horns once a year denotes the perpetual purification of those with whom the Lord can be present, that is, who are in the truths and goods of faith, ill. 10,208, 10,212. The destruction of Nadab and Abihu, when they offered incense with strange fire denotes the annihilation of worship when any other than heavenly love animates it, 9376, 9942, 9965. See Fire. INCLINATIONS, Hereditary. See Evil (2). INCREASE, the, of good and truth is denoted by growth in various senses ; increase from good, by growth from suckling, 2646, 2707, 6749, 6755. Increase in good and truth, and not in worldly riches and honours, is denoted by the blessing of Jehovah, 4981. See to Dilate, to Grow, to Fructify. INCREDULITY, or Unbelief. They who are not in truths from the Lord may easily be confirmed in falses and evils, by the spiritual spheres which act upon them ; the sphere of incredulity ; they in whom it acts believe nothing that is said, and scarcely anything that they see, 1510, 5573. At the end of the church there is universal M INF 369 incredulity concerning the Lord, the life after death, and the internal man ; how prejudicial it is to the reception of truth, 3399. How incredulous most part of the learned are concerning the internal man, 1594. How incredulous they are concerning the life of spirits, from experience, 1636, 4622; concerning the things of the other world, 4464, 4622, 5006 ; and concerning the influx of life, &c., 4249. The incredulity of spirits concerning the interior wisdom of the Word, and by what experience they were convinced, 1769 — 1771. See Faith (4). INCUBUS. The presence and influx of certain diabolical spirits described; the author's experience when sleeping, 1270, compare 5725. INDEFINITE. See Infinite. INDEMNIFICATION. To bear the loss, or indemnify another, denotes the rendering good ; and the clearer perception of good from its opposite, 4172. The same predicated of truth better seen and interpreted, 9030, 9031. INDICATE. See to Declare. INDIGENCE \indigentid\. The conjunction of good with truth and of truth with good takes place when the indigence, hunger, or want of them is perceived, ilL 536.5, 10,300. See Famine, Hunger. INDIGNATION, anger, restlessness, and the like, are experienced by the good when they are remitted into the sphere of their own life, or proprium, ill, 5725. Indignation with the angels is not the indig- nation of wrath, as with man, but of zeal springing from good, ill, 3839, 3909. Indignation in the internal sense is expressed by anger or wrath in the external, because it puts on the character of wrath with the natural man, 3909. The indignation of the angels is excited when any good is attributed to them, 4096. Indignation is excited in states of temptation on account of the influx of evils and falses ; the indignation of the Lord on account of apparent truths instead of real truths in the human rational, 1917. How indignant spirits are that men should attribute such an unreal life to them, 1630; how indignant subject spirits are on discovering that they say and think nothing of themselves, 5985, 5986 ; and how indignant the societies are from which man ia separated in the course of regeneration, 4077. The indignation of the Jewish people when their cupidity of being the favoured people of Jehovah was not satisfied, represented by the words of Moses, &c., 10,559. INFANT, Infancy. 1. Seriatim passages on the state into which infants come after death, 2289 — 2309. All infants are raised up again in the other life and become angels, hence it is manifest how immense the heaven of the Lord is, 2289. At first they know no more than infants in this life, but their faculties are more perfect, and they are instructed by angels, 2290. They are more easily instructed in the other life than in the world, because they are not imbued with falses, 1802. Their understandings are tender and yielding, and their ideas are capable of being opened by the Lord because nothing has closed them, 229 1 . They do not come into the angelic state imme- diately after death, but they are introduced by instruction, according to heavenly order, in a manner suited to their faculties, 2292. They are especially initiated into the acknowledgment of the Lord as their only father, and that they have life from the Lord ; hence they suppose that B a 1^ • 370 INF INF 371 they were born in heaven, 2293. When they are admitted into a lower sphere, spirits attempt to lead them, which is their temptation, but they resist the influence with a kind of indignation, and are thus inau- gurated into the resistance of evils and falses, 2294, 2295. In the angelic sphere, they cannot be infested by spirits, although in the midst of them, 2295. They are sometimes sent to infants living on the earth, and are greatly delighted therewith, 2295, 4563. They are instructed and initiated into all things by joys and delights, hence they are orna- mented with garlands of flowers, and walk in paradisiacal gardens, &c., 2296. They are encompassed with most beautiful atmospheres, which seem to be alive as with infants sporting with flowers, &c., whence they perceive that all things are Hving, 1621, 2297, 2298. They are led to wisdom by scenic representations full of intelligence, some exam- ples given, 2299. Infants are of diverse tempers and genius, but in general either celestial or spiritual, and their education in the other life is according to such differences, 2300, 2301. The societies which have the care of infants described, and what angels are successively attendant on infants in the earth, 2302, 2303. Infants are not angels, but they become angels by intelligence and wisdom, and then they no longer appear as infants, but as adults ; the example of one who was adult, as to the quality of mutual love towards a brother, 2304. Infants grow to maturity in heaven by virtue of spiritual nourishment, consisting in science, intelligence and wisdom, 4792, ill. 5576. Infants of some years old dwell with those who constitute the interiors of the nostrils in the Grand Man, 4625. The appearance of infants with the antedilu- vians representing their love of offspring, 1272. The weakness of the antediluvians who perished represented by their being thrust down into hell by an infant, 1271. See Innocence. An infant shamefully treated by spirits representing the quality of those within the church at the present day who are opposed to innocence, 2126. The inno- cence of infancy represented by somewhat woody, the innocence of wisdom by a beautiful living infant, 2306. The arcana of wisdom con- cerning the instruction of infants in heaven, are contained in the narrative of Abram's sojourn in Egypt, 1 502. To the intent that those who grow up in heaven may know their hereditary nature, they are sometimes remitted into their evils, 2307, 2308. 2. True infancy is predicated of innocence joined with wisdom, and is attained by regeneration, the manner ill, by the implantation of knowledges, in celestial remains, 1616. Infancy is not innocence, be- cause innocence dwells in wisdom, 2305, 3494, 3994 ; but the innocence of infancy is made the innocence of wisdom, 4797. The Word read by infant boys and girls is better perceived by the angels than when read by adults, 1776. Infants and the simple in heart cannot be hurt or infested by evil spirits, 1667, compare 2295. The genuine love of infants is the love of them for the sake of human societies and the augmentation of the Lord's kingdom, otherwise it is not unlike that of brutes, 1272. How very bad the education of infants here on earth is, exemplified by boys fighting, and being encouraged to do so by their parents, 2309. In what manner the states of infants succeed from the first stages of innocence, the love of parents, the love of their play- fellows, &c., 3183. With the man about to be regenerated, the case is similar as with an infant, who first learns to speak, and think, and understand, and then comes into the habit and life of what he has acquired ; thus spiritual things flow spontaneously with one about to be regenerated, 3203. Infants are first in a state of good ; for they are in a state of innocence, of love to parents and nurses, and of mutual charity towards their infant companions ; hence good is denoted by the elder son or first-born, 3494. Man without the goods of infancy, would be more fierce than any wild beast of the forest, but this is scarcely reflected on, because whatever is imbued in infancy appears natural, 3494, ill. 3793. The good of infancy is succeeded by the good of ignorance pertaining to the age of instruction, the good of ignorance by the good of intelligence, &c., 2280. All infants are sons of the Lord, because they are produced from his influx, and all adults are adopted as his sons who retain the goods of infancy in their wisdom, 3494. In consequence of hereditary evil it is necessary for man to be regenerated by the Lord, or born again as an infant, and thus to learn what is evil and false, what is good and true, &c., ill, 3701. The order into which man comes by the new birth ; that the truths of infancy and boyhood then appear as a ladder by which the angels of God ascend from earth to heaven, and the truths of adult age as a ladder by which they descend from heaven to earth, 3701. In first infancy the good of innocence and charity flows in from the Lord, but there is no truth with which it can be conjoined ; hence it is reserved in the interiors, and the succeeding states of life are tempered by it, 3793, ill. 5342. When the good of infancy is indrawn, its place is taken in the natural man by evil conjoined with the false, hence the need of regeneration, 3793. In the regeneration one age or state is as the egg or beginning of another, and this from infancy to old age the same as in natural life, 4377, 4378. With infants, innocence is without and hereditary evil is within, whereas with the regenerate, innocence is within and hereditaiy evil without, 4563. Innocence is the human principle itself, and is first external, as in infancy, and afterwards internal, 4797. Changes of the affections from infancy even to adult age are represented in the face, and by how much of infancy remains, the adult man is truly human ; from experience, 4797. From infancy to boyhood man is merely sensual, but his sensual state is under the order of external innocence ; and by the influx of this innocence the foundation is laid upon which the intellectual or rational man can afterwards be built up, ill. 5126; further ill, by the goods and truths which are procured from infancy to youth, 5135. See Remains. From infancy to boy- hood man is introduced into heaven among celestial angels and kept in a state of innocence, but in boyhood he begins to put off innocence, and is then held in charity, &c., 5342. Infants are innocencies, and hence denote those things which are interior, 5608. When man becomes old and as an infant, the innocence of wisdom should be conjoined to the innocence of ignorance which he had in infancy, and thus as a true infant he should pass into the other life, 5608 end. If man lived the life of good, his interiors would be open to heaven, and hence he would live without disease to old age, and pass as an infant, but a wise infant, into heaven, 5726, compare 1616. How all things are foreseen and overruled by the Lord from infancy to the end of life, from experience, 6484, 9296. The good of innocence received from the Lord in infancy is the beginning of the new will, ill. 9296. Good is implanted in roan B B 2 372 INF III from infancy, that it may be a plane for receiving trutli, 10,1 10. The age of infancy is from nativity to the fifth year ; the other ages described, 10,225. They who are innocent and wise appear as infants in the other life, and the more like infants the more innocent and wise they are, 2305, 5052, 5608. These angels love infants more than their parents and mothers, and it is by their care they are nourished and perfected in the womb, 5052. See Innocence. 3. Infants denote innocence, 430, 2126, 3183, 3494, 5608, 8902. Infancy, and also nakedness, denote innocence, 9262 and citations. Sucklings, infants, and little children denote three degrees of love and mnocency, sh, 430, ilL and sh. 3183, ill. 5236. A suckling and she who gives suck, denote innocence, ah. 3183. The infant and suckling cut off from the midst of Judah, denotes that there is no longer any remains of celestial love and its innocence, 3183. Only those who receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall enter therein, denotes mnocence and wisdom, or the proprium vivified by innocence and charity from the Lord, 3994, ill. 4797, The children crying " Ilosanna to the Son of David," denotes the acknowledgment and reception of the Lord by those who are in innocence, 5237. " Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise," denotes that innocence IS the only way by which praise can come to the Lord, thus all com- nication, influx and access is thereby, 5236, compare . Joseph's brethren to take waggons from the land of Egypt and bring their infants and their women, denotes doctrinals of scientifics for those who do not yet know, and for those who are in the affection of truth, 5945, 5946. Pharaoh's consent to the departure of the Israelites with their infants, denotes worship from truth ; by infants in this passage is meant boys, youths, and young men, 7724. The infants and sucklings swoon in the streets, denotes the good of innocence perishing, ill. 10,031. Abram's leaving the land of his nativity and coming to Canaan, repre- 'sents the infancy of the Lord; his first journeying in Canaan, the state of the Lord from boyhood, &c., 1438, 1450. INFERIOR [in/erius]. What is superior and inferior according to human ideas, is, in angehc ideas, interior and exterior, ill, 3084. The inferior is as the throne or seat of the superior, ill. 5313. See Ex- ternal, Internal. INFESTATION. The spiritual who are represented by the sons of Israel, and who are in the obedience of faith, are infested in the other life by those who are in falses ; not so those who do good from the affection of charity, 7474. Infestations are not temptations; the former consist in the infusion of falses, which are vastated as truths are im- bued ; the latter in a sense of damnation and anguish of conscience 7474. See Vastation, Temptation. * INFIDELITY. The seed of the serpent, the church being treated of, denotes all infideHty, 250, 254. INFINITE. How the divine infinite and eternal are conceived in the ideas of angels, and that they are confounded in the ideas of men with the infinite of space and the eternal of time, 1382. In the Lord all IS infinite and eternal ; infinite in respect to esse, eternal in respect to existere, 3404, 3701 . The infinite and eternal are in all things done by the Lord ; the eternal because he regards no terminus from which or to which ; the infinite, because in every minute particular he has INF 373 ««. regard to the universal, and in the universal to every minutest parti- cular, 5264. How essential it is that the divine and the infinite should be acknowledged in some finite intellectual idea, thus as the divine human, 4075. See Deity. The ancients adored the Infinite Esse or Being, in the Infinite Existing, which they perceived as a divine man, ill. 4687. How the infinite is accommodated to reception by the finite transcends all finite intelligence, for it is like looking into a profound sea, in which the intuition perishes, 8644. As all in the Lord is infinite, so all in heaven is indefinite, and the indefinite is an image of the inQnite, 1590. Truths and goods, and all things both in the spiritual world and the natural are indefinite, because they are from the infinite, ill. 6232, compare 4383. INFIRM HUMAN. See Lord. INFLAME, tOy is predicated of the lusts of man kindling, 7519. How the lusts or fires of the will break forth into flame when they kindle the falses of the understanding, which are as dense smoke, 9144. See Fire. INFLUX. 1. Of life from the Lord. There is one only life from which all in heaven and the world live, variously ill. 1954, 2021, 2658, 2706, 2886—2889, 3001, 3318, 3338, 3484, 3742, 4249, 4320, 4417, 4524, 4882, 5847, 6467. This life flows from the Lord alone, 2706, 2886—2889, 2892, 3001, 3318, 3484, 3742, 3743, 4151, 4319, 4320, 4524, 4882, 5846, 5850, 5986, 6058, 6325, 6468—6470, 6626, 7270, 8717, 8728, 9276. The all of life with man flows in by heaven from the Lord; passages cited, 9276. The influx of life from the Lord is always the same, but is varied according to the state of man and ac- cording to reception, 2069, 4320, 5147, 5847, compare 3318, 5986, 6467, 6472, 7343. The substances recipient of life appear to live because the influx from the Lord is continual, ill. 3484. The influx of life does not appear to man, but life appears as if it were in him, because it flows from the Lord's love, which is such that it wills to be another's, 3742, 4320. The influx of life, together with its quantity and quality, is manifestly perceived by the angels, 3742, 6466, 6469. The influx of life with angels, spirits, and men, is wonderful and ineffable in its procedure, 2886—2889, 3337, 6996. Influx into heaven proceeds immediately from the Lord, and also mediately by one heaven into another, and the same into the interiors and exteriors of man, 6058, 6063, 6466, 6472, 7004, 7270, 8685, 8701, 8717, 8728, 9682, 9683. By immediate influx the Lord at the same time leads heaven and holds all there in their order and connection, 7004. The immediate influx of the Lord is by celestial good, and influx is predicated of him because he is above the heavens, and yet flows down and is present therein, 10,129. The immediate influx of the Lord is into the ulti mates of order as well as the primates, thus he is the all from first to last with man, 6472, 6473, 7004, 72/0, 8719. The immediate influx of the divine from the Lord is into the most singulars of all things, 6058, 6474—6478, 8717; hence his providence, 4329, 5122, 5904, 6480 —6487, 6490, 6491, 8717. The order of all influx, thus of all exist- ence, from the Lord, is through the celestial state to the spiritual, and through the spiritual to the natural, thus according to successive order, 775, 880, 1096, 1495, 1702, 1707, particularly 7270. The influx of the Lord is immediate, and also mediate by the spiritual world or 374 INF heaven, 6063, 6307, 6472, and passages cited 9682, 9683. The influx of the divine is through what is inmost into things inferior, mediately and immediately, 5147, 5150. Physical influx is against order and impossible, thus all influx is from the spiritual world into the natural, and not from the natural into the spiritual, also from interiors to ex- teriors, not from exteriors to interiors, 3219, 5119, 5259, 5427, 5428, 5477, 5779, 6322, 8237, 9110. Influx is predicated of the interiors which flow into the exteriors, even into the extreme or ultimate where they exist and subsist in order, and whereby they hold all in series and connection, 634, 5897, 6239, ill. 6451, ill. 6465, ill. 8603, 9216, ill. 9828, 10,099. The influx of the Lord passes from heaven to heaven, and thus in order to man, who occupies the last place, ill. 9216, 9276. The Lord flows into the inmost of man, and hereby into his interiors, and hereby again into his externals ; hence his externals are comparatively remote and inordinate, 3855, compare 4015. The Lord dwells in his own, thus in what is divine with man, and not in the pro- prium of any one, 9338 ; thus, not in a persuasive faith, 9363 — 9369 ; or in any externals without an internal principle, 9380, compare 9401, 9419. The influx and habitation of the Lord with man is the good of innocence, 9296. The Lord flows-in with man by the internal way of his soul, and the world flows in by the external way of the body, ill. 5081. The influx of the Lord is use, which is prior to the organical forms intended to eflVct use, 4223, 4926. All the conatus or endea- vour of nature is from the perpetual influx of the Lord ; thus, from influx is derived conatus, from conatus energy or force, and from energy eflcct ; and if the influx of the cause should cease for a moment the effect would instantly perish, 5116. Life flowing in from the Lord, and man as the recipient form of that life, are as principal and instru- mental cause, which in action are one cause ; thus, the sensation of the life is perceived in the instrumental as its own, 6325. The Lord flows into all, both in common by heaven, and into the most singular and universal of all things by himself; but with those who are not in charity he can only impart life, and as far as possible preserve them from evil, 6475. Doubts concerning the influx of all life from one fountain cannot be removed while men are persuaded by the fallacies of the senses, and while they are ignorant of many things which are necessary to be known ; but especially while such a negative principle prevails that one scruple weighs against a thousand confirmations, 6479. See Life, Order, Internal. 2. Of light and heat. The light of heaven flows into natural light, and man is so far in wisdom as he is receptive of it, 4302, 4408, ill. 10,551. No spiritual truth could be seen in natural light without the influx of spiritual hght, 4302. The light of heaven is divine truth flowing from the Lord as a sun, and in that light is divine wisdom and intelligence, 3485, 3636, 3643, 3993, 4302, 4413, 4415, 6135, 9548, 9684 and citations. The influx of light from the Lord as a sun is universal, comparatively like the influx of light from the sun of this world ; thus its sphere fills the heavens, 9407. The common influx of the light of heaven gives the faculty of perceiving and understanding truth, 5667 — 5670. No one can come into the illustration of truth, because no light from heaven can flow into him, unless he is in the love of truth for the sake of life, 10,551. The nature of influx may be IN F 375 T t illustrated by comparison with the heat and light of the sun flowing into all things of the earth, &c., 6128, 6190, 6467, 7343 The vita^ heat in man is celestial love continually flowmg-m from the Lord ; how lucid the bodies of the angels appear from the light which it emits 6135, 6190. The influx of light from the Lord is impeded by the evil and false principles flowing in by worldly and corporeal things, bui light and heat appear to man when he emerges from temptations, OS^y. How the divine truth proceeding from the Lord flows m, illustrated by radiant circles, which are spheres from him, and how man is elevaiea into the light of heaven, 9407 ; illustrated generally, and passages cited, 9682-9684. That divine good flowing in from the Lord is caiiea truth, because it appears before the angels in heaven as light, i^^ yyyo- That influx and illustration from the light of heaven are actual elevation into heaven by the Lord, among the angels, and communication there, 10,330; t7/. bythe time called the golden age, and intercourse with the angels at that time, 10,355. See Illustration, Elevation. 3. Of good and truth. The all of thought and the all of will with man is from influx, and all good and truth with him is from the influx of the Lord; passages cited, 9223. The Lord never turns himselt away from any one, but the influx of good and truth from him is mode- rated according to reception, 5479, and passages cited 9hb-^. ine influx of the Lord is into good, and by good into truth, and not con- trariwise ; thus into the will, and by the will into the understandmg, and not contrariwise, 5482, 5649, 6027, 8685, 8701, 10,153. Good gives the faculty of receiving influx from the Lord, not truth without good, 8321. The influx of good and truth, which continually flow m from the Lord, is so far received as the evils of the loves of self and the world are removed, 241 1, 3142, 3147, 5828. The influx of good from the Lord is proportioned to the outflow of good from man, and is alto- gether suffocated by the opposition of evils and falses, ill. 5828 ; see below, 8439. Good cannot flow into truth as long as man is m evil. 2434. The capacity of man to think, and thereby to be a man, is trom the influx of the Lord through the goods and truths stored up trom infancy in the internal, l707.Mnflux by the goods of the internal man is celestial, and only exists with the regenerate, 1707, 172o. Influx by the truths of the internal man is spiritual, and is common to all, for unless it existed man could neither think nor speak, 1/07, 17^&. Celestial truths, which flow from the divine good of the Lord, are received only by the celestial man, because their influx is mto the voluntary part ; spiritual truths, which flow from the divme truth of the Lord, are received by the spiritual, because their influx is into the intellectual part, 2069. The influx and conjunction of good with truth can only take place when man wills good from the heart ; otherwise evil flows in from the will, and is conjoined with falses, ill. 6^66. Dunne man's regeneration good^is without and truth within, but when he is regenerated good is within and truth without ; the quality and procedure of influx in both states, ill. 3563. Genuine affections of good and truth are all from a divine origin, but they diversify and form new origins as they flow down, ill. 3796. Varieties do not exist from influx but from reception, 3890. Internal truths are conjoined to spiritual affection, which cannot flow in until external truths are adapted to cor- respondence with internal, ill. 3906, fully ill. 3913, 30o2, 3969, 4096. 376 INF Good continually flows in and appropriates truths as its vessels with the regenerate ; it flows in also before regeneration, and manifests itself as the afl'ection of truth, ill. 4247; and further as to appropriation, 3513. Good flows in from the Lord distinctly, as by steps or degrees, and in every degree it is qualified according to reception, ill, 5144, 5147, particularly 5145, compare 5032. Divine truth flows from the Lord by six degrees, and in the sixth degree it appears to the under- standing of man as it is in the letter of the Word, ill 8443. The plane m which the influx of the divine good is terminated is conscience, and when conscience does not exist it passes into merely sensual delights and becomes infernal, ill. 5145. Every man is surrounded with the sphere of good from the Lord, and also with a common sphere of influx from hell, which is nothing but the perversion of good from the Lord, 6477. The influx of divine good and truth from the Lord proceeds by continual mediations and thus successions; hence they who are in inmost principles derive clearer perception from it than they who are m the middle or outmost, 5920 ; see below, 8823. The good of charity flows-m by an interior way, the truth of faith exteriorly, 6269 ; how the priority of good is perceived from influx and illumination, 6294. When good flows into truths, it reduces them into order and subjection to the Lord ; and in a similar manner the Lord's spiritual kingdom is governed by influx from the celestial, 6366. Spiritual good, and hence the spiritual church, cannot exist except from the influx of the internal man into the afl'ection of spiritual good, 6499. The Lord continually flows m by the internal man with good and truth, but that influx is resisted and rejected in externals by the evil, 6564. The Lord flows in both mediately and immediately with every one, but the conjunction of truth proceeding immediately from him with truth proceeding mediately IS rarely effected, for it can only obtain with those who love to be led by him, ill. 7055, 7056, 7058 ; and as to the order of its procedure, 7270. Influx from heaven, and thus the extension of spiritual sight, IS checked by the immediate reception of truth ; hence, truth ought to be confirmed gradually by rational induction, ill. 7298. Divine truth flows into all, but it is varied with ever^ one according to the quality and state of his Hfe, ill. 7343. All spiritual truths and goods flow down according to order to inferiors, and are at length terminated in scientifics where they present themselves to the sight of man, 8005, compare 3085. So far as good flows in and is received, truth is de- lightful to man, and the contrary, 8356, compare 565 1 . The reception of good from the Lord is nothing without its application to use, because divme influx passes to the ultimates of order, thus from the perception of the understanding into will, and from will into act, 8439. The influx of the good of charity into truth combating, is predicated of those who are in zeal for the removal of the evil and the false, and yet without enmity, 8598. The union of good witlT truth is effected by the influx of the one into the other, and thence perception, succeeded by application immission, and conjunction by love, 8666. In the first state of regenera- tion while man is led by truth he is governed by immediate influx from the Lord; and in the second state, when he is led by good, he is go- verned by influx both mediate and immediate; citations concerning influx of both kinds, 868,5, ill. 8701. The Lord by the influx of his divine truth governs all things, not as a king who onlv takes the universal care ^X s rf INF 377 upon himself, and confides the particulars to others, but as God, seeing and knowing and providing for all from eternity ; thus mediate influx is really his as well as immediate, 8717, ill. 8719. The Lord flows in through the angels as to all good which becomes of ftfith and charity, and as to all arrangement; and the angels flow in from themselves with such things not good as agree with the afi'ections of man, and serve as means to introduce good, 8728. Divine good and divine truth flow softly and peacefully in the supremes, but as it descends the influx becomes tur- bulent, tumultuous and impacific, ill. 8823. Genuine truths with man flow in from the Lord alone, and are such in their internal contents because they are living from the love of the Lord and the neighbour, 8868, further ill. 9079. The influx of divine truth illustrated by pro- ceeding divine spheres, 9407. The influx of divine truth cannot be comprehended by the human understanding without illustration, for it appears to man as if there was a proceeding of what is holy from him when he is in worship, &c., but the order is the very contrary, 9419, ill. 10,299. The presence of the Lord is by influx, and influx is according to the life of good and truth, for it is the heat of heaven, which is the good of love, and the light of heaven, which is the truth of faith, that flow in, 9682. The influx of the Lord with all who are iu the good of love is more especially by the Word, ill. 9817. The influx and pro- cedure of good in heaven is from inmost to outmost ; thus there is no good really such unless it has interior good in it from which it is de- rived, ill. 9912—9914. The influx of celestial good into spiritual good, or the deflux and influx of the powers and forces of the celestial king- dom, is as the procedure of the fibres and nerves from the head into the body, ///. 9914. It is by celestial good that the Lord flows in imme- diately, and by spiritual good that he flows in mediately, 10,129. When good flowing in from the Lord meets with truth which enters from without, they form a marriage in the internal man ; hence all good with man is formed by truth, 9995. The Lord flows immediately into good and mediately into truth, thus he is not present in truth without good, 10,153; how fallacious truth is without good, thus faith without charity or love, illustrated from representatives in the other life, 10,194, and further ill. 10,199 near the end, 10,201. The goods that flow in from the Lord are at first perceived by man as if they were of and from himself, ill. 10,219. The influx of power from the Lord, preserving those who are in good and truth from evil, denoted by the angels taking hold of the hand of Lot and the hand of his wife, and leading them out of the city, 2411, 2412. The continual influx of good, evoking and elevating truths out of the natural man, and conjoining them with itself in the rational, denoted by the betrothal of Rebecca, 3085, 3128, 3196— 3200, 3207. The influx of good from the rational man by the medium of truth, and the form it puts on in externals, denoted by Jacob's simu- lating the person of Esau, 3563, 3564. The influx of the genuine afl'ection of truth, and good in the natural man proceeding to conjunction therewith, denoted by the meeting between Jacob and Rachel, 3793, 3796 — 3800. The first influx and indwelling of good, tending to the conjunction of the internal and external man, denoted by Jacob with the handmaid of Rachel, 3913; and as to its further procedure, 3952, 3969. The influx of good when the second state of regeneration is 378 I NF i commencing, when good is regarded as prior and superior to truth, denoted by Esau's coming to meet Jacob, 4247, 4336, 4350, 4352. The influx of good into the voluntary part of the unregenerate man not terminated by distinct planes, denoted in the dream of Pharaoh's baker by the perforated baskets upon his head, &c., 5144—5147. The influx of truth from the divine manifesting that faith in the will and faith in the understanding are as yet separate, denoted by Joseph and his brethren when Simeon was separated from them, 5467, 5482. The influx and conjunction of the internal man not vet received in the natural, denoted by the brethren of Joseph fearing him, &c., 5647, 5651, 5773, 5786, 5880, 5881. The influx of good and truth from the Lord sustaining the natural man made spiritual, denoted by Joseph in Egypt supporting his father's house, 5915. The influx of good and truth from the Lord giving perception, denoted by the eyes of his brethren and the eyes of Benjamin seeing, 5919— -5921. The influx, communication, and conjunction of the celestial internal, denoted by Joseph's falling upon the neck of Benjamin, and kissing his brethren, 5926, 5929. The influx of internal good into external good and thereby into the truths of faith, denoted by Judah's going on before his father and brethren to meet Joseph, 6027. The influx of love from the Lord and of good and truth derived therefrom manifested to the natural man made spiritual, denoted by Israel's seeing Joseph and his sons Ephraim and Manasseh in Egypt, 6255, 6264. The mflux of the internal man causing the humihation of the external both as to will and understanding, denoted by Joseph's leading his two sons to Israel, and his sons bowing themselves, 6265, 6266. The influx of celestial good reducing spiritual truths to order, and thus under sub- mission to the Lord, denoted by the hand of Judah in the neck of his enemies, and the sons of his father bowing to him, 6365, 6366. The influx of the internal man into the affection of good, and its preserva- tion from the contagion of evil, denoted by Joseph's falling upon the faces of his father, and weeping over him, and kissing him, and by the embalmment of Israel, 6498—6502. The influx of the internal man giving the perception of evil, together with consolation after repentance and submission, denoted by Joseph's affectionate forgiveness of his brethren, 6560, 6563, 6565—6569, 6578. The influx of truth imme- diately proceeding from the Lord into truth that proceeds mediately, and hence instruction, denoted by Moses telling all the words of Jeho- vah to Aaron, 7058, 8437 and citations. The reception and commu- nication of divine influx, or the influx of divine truth into doctrine, denoted by Moses receiving the commands of Jehovah, and Aaron's speaking to Pharaoh, 72/0. The influx of the divine potency mani- festing the sensual and corporeal man, as separate from the internal, denoted by the rod of Moses cast out of his hand and turned into a serpent, 6947—6949. See Hand (2), Egypt (5, 6, 8), Moses. 4. Of the evil and false. The all of life flows in, thus all evil is from hell and all good from the Lord, 904, ill. 4151. Man believes that all things are in himself, when yet they flow in, which he may know from the doctrinal that good and truth are from the Lord, and that what is evil and false are from hell, 4249. The evil are not willing to be convinced that all life flows in, 3743, 6193, 6468. Life flows in from the Lord, even with the evil and with infernal spirits, 2706, 3743, INF 379 ^417. With those who are m evil, the good that flows in from the WtII-, ITa^ '"n ^T\ ^"^. ^^'^ ^'""^^ ^"^« *^^ ^^ls«' 3642, 4632, u- u t ' ^^V\. ^"^^^ ^^"^^ ^"^« ^^il ^^^en there is no conscience by which It can be directed in the way, for it passes through into the ex- terior of the natural man and is turned into filthy delights, ill, 5145. compare 5032 5651. Man thinks falsely and acts evili; from the reception of influx from the Lord in his own self-impressed forms ; as in physics, one and the same force produces various motions according as the means and extremes are constructed, 5259. Internal good flows m into external good, not into truth, except by or through good, 6027 The inmost of man's life is celestial love flowing in from th^Loid, even with the evil, but the evd pervert it in its progress, ill, 6135. There IS a common sphere of influx from hell prompting to evil with every man, and this sphere is nothing but the perversion of good proceeding from the Lord, the author's experience, QA77, compare ^^^4, When man IS m temptations, he is obsessed round about by evils and falses which impede the influx of light from the Lord, i7/."6829. The evils and falses which check the influx of good and truth continually pro- ceeding from the Lord flow in by corporeal and worldly affections, r^/. ♦1 V* r u n S"^ ^""'^^ ^y ^'^^^*^ ^^^ is infested flow into his though s from hell, 7147. Evil spirits believe their evils and falses to be goods and truths until they draw near heaven, and then the influx ot the truth of faith gives them to perceive their falses, and the influx ot the good of love to perceive their evils, 7519, 7520. The change of state with the evil who are vastated is effected by the more present mflux of good and truth from heaven, ill. 7568, further ill, 7643:7710. «n5^?K ""'. .^"^T'/^f *^ea^ens by influx, it passes to opposites, and thus contams the hells in connection and bonds, 7710 It is according to the order of influx that the hells should be governed by the heavens, for the hells may be seen from the heavens, and evils from good, but not contrariwise, 8237. Man turns the good that flows from the Lord into evil by regarding himself and gratifying his concupi- scences in all things, instead of regarding the Lord, 7643. Man is protected by the Lord lest the false of evil should flow into the volun- tary part, for if such influx took place after regeneration he could not be saved, 8194. Nothing flows from man himself but what is evil and false, hence all conjunction with the Lord is by influx from him, and not in virtue of reciprocal influx, 9401, ill, 9419. 5. Of the will and understanding. It is the continual influx of evil from the voluntary part into the intellectual that obscures the good flowing in from the Lord, ill. 2715. It is this obscurity of the spi- ritual man that is illuminated by influx from the Lord's divine human, 1^/1 1>. Influx from the will into the understanding effects the con- junction of good and truth, or of evil and the false, according as good IS willed from the heart or otherwise, ill, 3033. The interior will and understanding ought to have influx and correspondence in the exterior and thus be represented therein, ill. 3573, particularly 3632, 372 1! Ihe influx and connection of the will and understanding, consequently of good and truth, is like the influx by which the two kingdoms oY heaven are conjoined, 3888. The influx of truth is the influx of life from the Lord into the understanding of man by the medium of the will, 6,1/. The intellectual part can never receive truth unless the 380 INF voluntary part receives good, for the one flows into the other and dis- poses the other to receive, 5147. Man is celestial if he receives the influx of divine good in the voluntary part, and spiritual if he receives it in the intellectual part, 5 1 50. There is no other way by which any regenerate man or angel can receive influx from the Lord than by good, or the will of doing the truth, 5482. The will and understanding receive the influx of life from the Lord by the medium of spirits and angels, 6466 ; and also immediately from the Lord himself, 6472. The Lord does not compel man to receive his own influx of divine good and truth, but as he is received, such is the life of the thought and the will, 6472. The Lord carefully guards the voluntary part of man from the influx of infernal spirits, ill. 8194. All the goods and truths of the will and understanding flow in from the Lord, and all the evils and falses from hell ; how necessary it is to come into the perception and acknowledgment of this fact, 10,219. As the all of thought and the all of will flows in with man, the whole of life flows in, 2886 — 2888. See Life, Liberty. 6. Of the rational and natural man. Influx from the Lord into intellectual things with man is according to three degrees, for it passes by the will into the intellectual mind, by the intellectual into the rational, and by the rational into the scientifics of the memory, 657, ill. 5144. Good itself and truth itself are in the internal man, from whence they flow into the interior or rational, and thereby into the external, 1702, ill. 1707 y 1725. All instruction is only an opening of the way for influx ; thus, scientifics open the way for rational truths, rational truths for intellectual, and intellectual for celestial, the order of instruction ill. 1495. The rational man is born from the influx of the internal into the aflection of sciences in the external, or into the know- ledges and scientifics of the external by means of aff^ection, 1895, 1900, 1909, 2557. If the true order of influx prevailed, man would have the rational and scientific principles with himself when he came into the world, but the forms of his life are inverted by hereditary evil, 1902, 2557. The life itself of the internal man flows into all the aff^ections of Ihe natural man, and is varied therein according to ends, 1909. The influx or entrance of the Lord into man is by the internal, which is very man, and by which he is distinguished from brute animals, into the rational, and thereby into the external or scientific, 1940. The things which appear in externals flow in from the interiors, and solely from the Lord, «7/. by the sight of the eye, 1954. The influx of life from the Lord through the rational principle not only adapts the scien- tifics and knowledges of the external man to the reception of life, but disposes them into order and enables man to think, 2004 ; see below 3086. The rational man is not formed by the influx of internal truths, because of hereditary evil hindering, but by the influx of good into external truths, 2557. Influx into the rational man opens the interior sight which is that of the understanding and the spirit of man, ill. 2701. The influx of the rational man and its intuition in the natural gives man to judge and conclude from the objects of the latter, 3020. By the influx of the divine through the rational man into the natural, the truths of the natural man are continually called forth, elevated, and implanted in rational good, ill. 3085, compare 5081, 51 18, 5119. By influx into the natural man, all things in his memory are illustrated INF 381 vivified, and disposed into order, and all affection excited, ilL 3086, 4015. Thoughts and ideas exist in virtue of influx from within and not from without ; the discourse of the angels on thjs subject repre- sented by birds ; the fall of some from an angelic society who were in falses described, 3220. When the natural man is regenerated he de- rives his conception from the rational, and thus by influx from the divine proceeding to extremes, 3304. The influx of the rational man into the natural is without truth, thus immediately into natural good ; also by truth, thus mediately, ill. 3314, 3563, 3573, 3622, 4563. Divine truths flow into the rational man, and by the rational into the natural, where they are presented to view as in a mirror, 3368, 3391 ; see below, 516.5. The image presented in the natural mind by the influx of the rational is the common form of the numerous particulars which flow in, and this form is some image either of heaven or hell, according as man is either good or evil, 3513, 3855. The natural is not regenerated before it is conjoined with the rational, and its conjunc- tion is effected by influx, mediate and immediate, ill. 3573 ; see above 3314, and compare 3632, 3721, 3906, 3913, 3952, 3969, 4015. After the conjunction of the natural and rational, there is immediate influx of rational good into natural, and of rational truth into natural, 3616. The truths and scientifics of the natural man receive the influx of life from the Lord, as they are conjoined with the rational by good, 3824, compare 10,367. The Lord flows-in into the interior or spiritual man by good, and by truth therefrom into the natural, but not immediately by good before regeneration, 4015, ill. 4096. Good flowing-in without direction by the way, and passing into the merely natural man is either suffocated or perverted by the diabolic crowd which occupies him, 5032, ill. 5145, 6564. The communication between the rational and the natural is by reciprocal influx ; yet exteriors do not flow into interiors, 5118, 5119, compare 5081. When the delights of the natural man are reduced to order and subordination under interiors, the influx of delight and happiness is inefi*able, 5125. The celestial and spiritual principles flowing in from the Lord have their chief dwelling in the interior rational; still they flow into the exterior rational and also into the natural, 5150. The exterior natural is a plane or mirror, and as it were a face, in which the interiors see themselves, and hence man has the power of thinking, 5165, 5168. Unless the natural be subor- dinate, as with the regenerate, the interiors cannot be thus presented to view ; neither can those things be believed in which are above sensual things, 5168. Correspondence and subordination cannot be produced in the natural mind without the influx of good, for sensuals and scien- tifics are only the vessels into which good flows, and in which it fashions or adapts itself to uses, 5168. All arrangement in the natural mind is from truth and good flowing-in from the interiors ; hence man's power of intuition, of thinking analytically, of forming conclusions, and of willing, is solely from influx, ill. 5288. All influx is from the supreme, and thus all thought is of the internal thinking in the external, and not of the external itself as the appearance is, 5259. All that man appears to conclude rationally from the scientifics of his memory, and thus of his own power, flows in gratuitously from the Lord, as is well known in angelic societies ; it is not perceived by men at this day, because they are immersed in worldly things and do not believe in influx, 5649, 382 IN F 5664^. The natural man is the plane in which influx is terminated, and hence unless evils are removed good from the Lord cannot flow in without perversion, and thus the internal is closed, 5651, i7/. 5828, fi564 ; see below 6845. It appears as if sensation came from influx by the externals, but it is the internal which flows into the external and the contrary is a fallacy, 5779, compare 3721. There is influx from the Lord himself into the interiors or rational things of man, and also into his exteriors, but man is privileged to receive it in all freedom, 6472. Influx from the Lord governing the thoughts is like a gentle and almost imperceptible stream, the vein of which does not appear, but still leads and draws ; the author's experience, 6474 ; and when reading the Lord's prayer, 6476. The divine cannot flow into the sensual things of man, thus into the ultimates of order with him, unless he is elevated above them; the divine influx then passes into the interior plane to which man is elevated, ill. 6845. The Lord flows into good with man, which is his heaven or internal man, and from the internal into the external where his world is, 10,367, compare 3824. See Good (15), Internal, External, Regeneration. The order of influx uniting the internal and rational man by intel- lectual truths, denoted by Sarai in Egypt passing as the sister of Abram, 1495. The order of influx uniting the internal and external man by means of the interior or rational, denoted by Abram the Hebrew and his delivering Lot, 1702, 1707, 1725. Influx from the internal man into the afl*ection of sciences, and the rational man first produced there- from, denoted by Abram and the Egyptian handmaid, 1892 — 1896, 1898—1902, 1904, 1907, 1909, 2557. The fructification of the rational man from the influx of the internal, when it submits itself to divine truth, denoted by the blessing promised to Ilagar on returning to her mistress, 1940, ill. 1954. The multiplication of truth and the fructification of good from life flowing in by the internal man, denoted by the blessing of Abram and the change of his name to Abraham, 2004 — 2011. The influx of spiritual truth and the conception of the rational man therefrom, not according to present order, denoted by Sarai as the half-sister of Abraham, 2557. Influx from the Lord by way of the internal man or soul affording intelligence and illustration, denoted by God*s opening the eyes of Hagar, 2701. The rational man from the influx of divine light, or from the affections of spiritual good and truth implanted in the first rational, and no longer from the pro- prium, denoted by the birth of Isaac, 2196, 2610 and subsequent num- bers, 2657. Arrangement in the external man by influx from the internal, denoted by Abraham's instructions to his servant concerning Isaac, 3019, 3040. Influx from the Lord by the internal man evoking truths from the external, and their initiation into good in the rational, denoted by the procedure of Abraham's servant, and his brii»ging Rebecca to Isaac, 3013, 3074, 3085, 3086. The influx of truth begin- ning from the divine, and at last terminating in the lowest natural principle and there adhering to good, denoted by the birth of Jacob and his holding by the heel of Esau, 3304. The influx and conjunc- tion of rational good with natural good stronger and more immediate than with natural truth, denoted by Isaac's preference of Esau over Jacob, 3314. The influx and conjunction of rational truth with natural truth stronger and more immediate than with natural good, denoted INF 383 by Rebecca's preference of Jacob, 3314. The influx of divine truth not given in scientifics, but by medium of the rational man, denoted by Isaac's dwelling in Gerar and not going to Egypt, 33^8. The influx of the interior or rational man given in the natural as a new life, and hence the procedure of regeneration, denoted by the transactions with Esau and Jacob at the death of Isaac, 3490, 3493, 3498, 3505, 3539, 3563, 3573, 3603. The apparent and the true order of influx, com- munication, and conjunction, between the Lord and man, and between man and the world, and thus the descent and influx of the divine into nature by the natural mind of man, denoted by the dream of Jacob, the angels of God ascending and descending by a ladder whose top reached to heaven, &c., 3697, 3099— 3702, 3721. Internal truths conjoined with the rational man, and hence with the internal, by good flowing in from the Lord when they are loved for the sake of life, denoted by Jacob's serving seven years for Rachel, 3824, compare 3906, 3913.

Heaven, or the Grand Man, is formed by influx from the Lord, as very man, thus, by the influx of the divine human, 6626, 6982, 6985, 6993, 6996, 9144, and citations. 10,196. In virtue of the influx and connexion of this stupendous form, man also corresponds to heaven; thus, as heaven is a Grand Man, man is a little heaven, 3624—3649, 3741—3750, 3883—3896, 4039—4055, 4218— 4228, 4318—4331, 4403—4421, 4523—4534, 4622—4633, 4652— 4660, 4791—4805, 4931—4953, 5050—5061, 5171—5189, 5377— 5396, 5552--5573, 5711— 5727, 6469. The extremes of order, in which divine influx is terminated and finished, are the gestures, actions, looks, language, and sensations of the human body, 3632, 3721, and citations, 5862, 5990, 6192, 6211. In course of time, there has been a change in the procedure of influx from the brain into the face, and together therewith a change in the correspondence of the face with the interiors, ill. 4326, 8250. The influx of the heart into the lungs, and the likeness of this influx throughout the whole body, is a representation of the influx and connexion between the celestial kingdom of heaven and the spiritual, 3887, 3888, 3890. The author was shewn by sensible influx in what manner the societies of heaven act into the face, the muscles of the forehead, the lips, the eyes, and other parts of the body, hence it was shewn to him that heaven is never closed, and how immense heaven is, for the greater are the numbers, the stronger is its force and action, 3631, 4800. See Heaven (7), Heart, Man. 8. Of Spirits and Angels. Influx is received by man through the medium of spirits and angels, 2886, 2887, 4067, 4096, 4249, 4319, 5846, 5986, 6307, 6466, 6470, 6982, 6985, 6996, 7004, 7147, 8728, 10,219. Man receives influx through the medium of spirits and angels because he is not in the order of his nature, 5850. Without influx from spirits and angels it would be impossible for man either to think or to will, 2886—2888. Men, spirits, and angels, all alike derive the ability to think, to speak, and to act, from the influx of others, and thus all from the Lord ; if it were not so there could be no order of life pre- served in heaven, 4319, 4320, 6470. Whatever man thinks, and what- ever he wills, is from the influx of spirits ; when he thinks and wills evil, from the influx of evil spirits, and consequently from hell ; when he thinks and wills good, from the influx of good spirits and angels, \ 384. INF INF 385 consequently from heaven, 904, 2886—2888, 4151, 4249, 4319, 4320, 5846, 5848, 6189, 6191, 6194, 6197—6199, 6213, 7147, 10,219. The communication of thought and desire by influx, is in place of com- mand and imperative government among the angels, 5732. Spirits flow into what is thought and willed by man, but angels into ends and their sequences, and, by means of good spirits, into the goods of life and truths of faith with man, 5854. The plane in which the influx of angels operates against evils and falses, is formed by the truths of faith, rooted in the afl^ection of truth, ill. 5893; see below 6207. The influx of angels and spirits with man is according to man's freedom, 6189 ; from expe- rience, 6191, compare 6325, 6468, particularly 6472. See Liberty. All things flow-in into the thought from spirits, and from whole societies into subject spirits, briefly, 6194, 6197. Spirits flow-in with man altogether according to his affections, 6195, 6196. Spirits do not know that they are with man, but they enter into all things of his memory, and believe them to be their own, and thus flow into the interiors of his thought and will, 6192, 6194, compare 6197, 6198. The influx of particular spirits and angels into the actions and speech of the body is not permitted, such things being governed by common or general influx, 6192, 6211 ; see below, 6212. The influx of spirits from the exterior memory is not permitted, and they are also not permitted to use the exterior memory lest they should obsess the human race, ilL 2477. The influx of angels is with goods and truths, and the influx of infernal spirits with evils and falses, 6193. The influx of angels is more inte- rior, and less manifestly perceived than the influx of evil spirits ; the reasons, 6193; see below 6205. The angels know that all good and truth flow-in from the Lord, and that they are only the mediums with man, but evil spirits are not at all willing to know this, 6193, 6468, 3743; as to the latter in particular, 6198. The influx and presence of spirits with the thought of man, and the ideas of his memory, com- municate as by a kind of wave ; the author's experience, 6200, 6201 ; compare 6310 — 6318. There is a procedure of influx from spirits who do not pertain to the individual man, but are emitted from some infernal society into the sphere of his life ; how they occasion melan- choly and anxiety, &c., 6202. Infernal spirits induce diseases by their influx, which is into the cupidities and falses of man, and not into the solid parts of the body ; when man falls into disease, however, they have influx into the impurities of such disease, 5713. The influx of evil spirits is like an inundation ; into the left part of the brain like an inundation of phantasies, and into the right part of the brain like an inundation of cupidities ; the contrary is the case with angelic influx, 64 1 , 660; from experience, 5725 ; compare 739, 754, 5215. See Flood. Man casts himself into hell when he does evil from consent, at length from purpose, and finally from the delight of affection, for hereby he opens to himself the corresponding hell, and receives influx therefrom ; how obstinately inherent that evil is with him, 6203. The influx of evil spirits is into the cupidities and persuasions of man, and hence it subjects and governs him like a servant ; but influx by the angels leads him gently, and bends his affections to good without touching his free- dom, 6205. The influx of angels is into what man knows and believes ; hence if he believed evil to flow in from hell, it would not be imputed to him, for the angels would avert and reject it, 6206 ; more tully ill. 6324, 6325. The influx of the angels is into man's conscience, and hence they hold him bound by the affection of good and truth, and of justice and equity, without infringing his liberty. 6207, 6213. ' The influx of angels is like a river or flowing air, that of more interior angels lucid and flaming, 6209, compare 6615. Influx from the spiritual vjrorld and from heaven with the prophets, was partly by dreams and visions, &c., and sometimes by actual occupation of their bodies, ill. bv the author's experience, 6212. It appears incredible that spirits should know the thoughts of man, yet in the other life they not only perceive all that he thinks and wills, but much more than man himself; the author's experience, 6214 ; and that such experience was continual with him, 6307. No hurt comes from the influx of evil spirits into the thought, but from what enters the will and comes forth into act, 6204, 6308. The order of influx is such, that evil spirits flow in first, and thus assault man, and the angels dissipate their influx, 6308. The influx of infernal spirits is by the sensual lumen, in which are all those who hve m contempt of rational and spiritual things, 6310—6318 compare 6200, 6201. The influx of angels is not as man thinks, but according to correspondences, thus their spiritual ideas when apprehended by man, fall into representatives which coincide with them, 6319. The spirits attendant on man perceive as man thinks, and not as he sensates with the body, 6319. Angels flow in by affections, which affections contain innumerable things in themselves, but only the few are received by man, which are applicable to what was before in his memory, 6320. The remains or superfluity of angelic influx which cannot be received, encompasses about these, and contains them as in a bosom, 6320. When the influx of the angels is checked by influx from evil spirits, the life of thought fluctuates, and if angelic influx be wholly taken away, man cannot live, from experience with those who in part took away influx, 6321. The vein of attraction by influx from the Lord described, and communication opened with societies of angels by the Lord's prayer, 6474, 6476, 66 1 9. The providence of the Lord in virtue of influx, both immediately from himself, and mediately by spirits and angels, is most universal, and most particular, illustrations given 6480—6495. The Lord rules the world by the evil as well as by the upright, leading them by their loves; for the evil are often more strongly excited to do good to their country and the church than the upright, both for the sake of obtaining their own ends, and because they attribute all things to their own prudence, 6481, 6495. The delights of evil spirits are turned into hell-torments when they perceive the influx of angels, from experience, 6484. The thought and affection, both of men and spirits, extend themselves far and wide into societies in the spiritual world, and the faculty of understanding and perceiving is according to such extension, 6599, 661 1, 7298. This extension is by influx from the societies, not to them, 6600, compare 8794, 9962. Angelic ideas flow into the ideas of spirits who are below them, and thus into grosser ideas, insomuch that innumerable things are perceived in one form, 6614. The ideas of man's thought are filled with innumerable things by influx from heaven, and, if he be evil, by influx from hell, various illustrations, confirming also the plenary inspiration of the Word, 6613, 6619—6626. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord, thus the Word or divine speech cannot be heard by man without the mediation of spirits and angels, who enun- c c 386 INF ciate It by the influx of thought, or the Hving voice, ilL 6982, 6985, 6996. Influx from the Lord by means of the angels is not because he has need of them, but because they derive their fehcity from the offices and functions m which they serve, 8719. The angels also flow-in into man from themselves, but not with genuine goods, and hereby they serve for the introduction of goods and truths from the Lord, 8728. See Good (6). That there is a sphere flowing from every man, spirit, and angel, according to the particular genius of each, that it is sometimes rendered visible, that it exists from the activity of things in the interior memory, thus, that it is an exhalation flowing from the life of his love and how far it extends itself, &c., 1048, 1053, 1316, 1504— 152o! 1695, 2401, 2489, 4464, 6206. See Sphere. That divine influx is turned into representatives with the angels of the superior heavens, and from these again with those of the inferior, and before spirits, 2179 3213—3215,9457,9481,9576,9577. 1 ^ /*'> 9.

Influx is by the internal man into the external, or by the spirit into the body, and not contrariwise, because the spirit of man is in the spiritual world, and the bodv in the natural, 1702, 1707, 1940 1954 5119, 5259, 5779, 6322, coll'ated with 978, 1015, 3628, 4459,' 4523* 4524,6057,6309,6319,9701-9709, 10,156, 10,472, and the whole m a summary 6057, 6063. The appearance of influx from the external into the internal, by the medium of the senses, is a fallacy, for all influx is from interiors to exteriors, 3721, 5779. The internal man acts in the external solely by influx, and hence all manifestation is by influx, 5885. Nothing can be known concerning the influx and commerce of the soul with the body, unless it be known what the soul is, 6053. The commerce of the soul with the body, properly speaking, is the com- munication of the spiritual things which are of heaven, with the natural things which are of the world, and this communication is by influx, ill 60o7, 6319. The representation of spiritual things in natural,' the correspondence of the body with the Grand Man. and the connection of angels and spirits with men, are treated of, in order to illustrate the influx and commerce of the soul with the body, 6058. The natural or external man could not live without influx, both immediately from the Lord, and mediately through the spiritual world, 6063. The Lord, by the intellectual part of man, flows into the rational, and by the rational into the scientifics of the memory, and hence is derived the life of the senses ; this is the true influx, and the true commerce of the soul with the body, 657, compare 1495.

It is generally believed that all things are reproduced from seeds and eggs, in virtue of a power implanted in them from the first, but all subsistence and reproduction are from influx and correspondence, 4322, ill. by flowers and fruits in particular, 5116. Doubt and denial concerning heaven prevent men from believing that all things in the three kingdoms of nature are produced and contained in form by influx, which influx is according to use, 4322. The author was fully informed concerning influx into the lives of animals, which are all dissipated after death, 1633; see below 5114. Animals are contained together, and live, in virtue of influx from the spiritual world, and afflux from the natural, the same as men ; but the operation of such influx and afflux is different according to the difference of their souls and bodies in form, ill. 3646. Man is in eternity and infinity, not only by influx but reception ; while the recipient forms of the lives of animals are dissipated at death, because influx passes through them into the world and is there terminated and vanishes, 5114. The difference between men and beasts, is, that men are capable of being elevated by the Lord to himself, to think of the divine, to love it, and thus be con- joined to the Lord; hence men have eternal life but not beasts, 4525, 5114, 6323, 9231.

Of Common and Particular In/lux. Influx proceeding from the Lord by the spiritual world is common and particular ; common with all things that are in the order of their nature, and particular with man, 5850. It is according to common influx and correspondence that the thought falls into speech, and the will into gestures with man, 5862, 5990, 6192, 6211. Particular influx is effected by the medium of spirits and angels, and unless it were so done, man would instantly precipitate himself into the deepest hell, 5850, ill. 5993. Corporeal things are exempt from the particular influx of spirits and angels, and governed by common influx, but evil spirits ardently desire to govern the former, 5 990, 6 1 92, 62 1 1 . Common influx is a continual endeavour proceeding from the Lord by the whole heaven into the singulars of man's life, 6211.

It is generally believed that all things are reproduced from seeds and eggs, in virtue of a power implanted in them from the first, but all subsistence and reproduction are from influx and correspondence, 4322, ill. by flowers and fruits in particular, 5116. Doubt and denial concerning heaven prevent men from believing that all things in the three kingdoms of nature are produced and contained in form by influx, which influx is according to use, 4322. The author was fully informed concerning influx into the lives of animals, which are all dissipated after death, 1633; see below 5114. Animals are contained together, and live, in virtue of influx from the spiritual world, and afflux from the natural, the same as men ; but the operation of such influx and afflux is different according to the difference of their souls and bodies in form, ill. 3646. Man is in eternity and infinity, not only by influx but reception ; while the recipient forms of the lives of animals are dissipated at death, because influx passes through them into the world and is there terminated and vanishes, 5114. The difference between men and beasts, is, that men are capable of being elevated by the Lord to himself, to think of the divine, to love it, and thus be con- joined to the Lord; hence men have eternal life but not beasts, 4525, 5114, 6323, 9231. Beasts are in the order of their hfe, and are there- c c 2 r 388 INH A \ fore bom into all the scierce of their nature ; man, on the contrary, has to he introduced into the order of his life by intellectual culture, 637, 5850, 6323, compare 3793. Animals are receptive of common influx because they are in the order of their life, and common influx is a con- tinual endeavour to act according to order, 5850, 621 1, compare 5862, 5990, 6192. The common influx of the Lord by heaven passes into all the subjects of the vegetable kingdom also, and continually acts into the forms of their primitives, 3648. In virtue of influx from the spiritual world into the natural, universal nature is as a theatre repre- sentative of the Lord's kingdom, 2758, 2999, 3000, 3483, 4938, 4939, ^280. Hence it is that beasts signify affections and inclinations, such as rnan and they have in common, passages cited 9280. Hence, also, trees, gardens, &c., signify perceptions and knowledges, and generally states of intelligence and wisdom, 100, 103, 108, 2163, 2682, 2722, 2972, 3220, 7690, 7692. INFORM, to.

INHABIT, OR Dwell, to [inhabitare^, signifies to be and to live, thus state, 1293, 2502, 4600, 6080. To inhabit predicated of the Lord, signifies to be, sh. 3384, compare 2572. To inhabit is predicated of good abiding in truth; the angels also really dwell in truth with man, 2268, 2451, 2708, 2712, 3613, 6773, 6774. To inhabit is pre- dicated of the Lord's presence and influx in the good of love, 10,153, 9480 ; the Lord also dwells everywhere in good, 2572. To inhabit is predicated of spiritual good; to possess, of celestial good, 27)2, 9338. See Heir. To inhabit is predicated of the life of good with truth ; to tarry, of the life of truth with good, 3613. To inhabit is predicated of good ; to reside, of truth, 4600.

Ishmael's dwelling against the faces of all his brethren, denotes rational truth always victorious in contentions about faith, 1951. The cities of the plain overthrown, and all their inhabitants, denotes all truths and all the goods of truth withdrawn from the evil, 2448, 2451. Lot's pre- servation and his dwelling in a mountain, denotes the salvation of those who are in the aflection of truth, and their state as to good, 2442, 2460.

Innocence and charity make the ground in which the seeds of truth take root and germinate, and without them the truth can never be re- ceived and acknowledged in heart, 311; see below, 10,021. Man is introduced into a state of innocence when he is first born, and this innocence becomes the plane and occupies the inmost of all the following states ; how they succeed each other in order until the first and the last are united in the innocence of wisdom when man becomes old, 3183, 3494. Without the innocence or good with which man is imbued in mfaucy, he would be worse than any wild beast, 3494. In virtue of the influx of good begetting and forming man, all infants are born sons of the Lord, and they become his adopted sons so far as they retain the innocence of infancy when they become wise, 3494. All in heaven are guarded by innocence, for the Lord only dwells in innocence, and only manifests himself to those who come 'into a state of innocence, ilL and tth, 3519. The proprium of innocence is the essential of all love and charity, and it consists in acknowledging from the heart that all good is from the Lord, and that all that proceeds from oneself is evd ; without such acknowledgment there is no humiliation and self- aversion, consequently no reception of the Lord, ill. and sh. 3994, ill, 7902, 9262, 9301, 9938; see below, 10,210. Charity to the neigh- bour and love to the Lord can never be given except in innocence, and hence no one can come into heaven without innocence, 3994, 4797, 5608. The first state of innocence with the regenerate partakes of their own proprium, hence the black proprium of innocence signified by the black among the lambs, 3994, 4001. An infant is innocence in external form, and innocence is the human principle itself, into which, as a plane, love and charity flow from the Lord, 4797. When man is regenerated, the innocence of infancy which was external is made internal, 4797 y 5608 end; see below, 9301. The state of innocence in which man is kept in infancy and boyhood makes him receptive of instruction in goods and truths, but it is not internal mnocence which affects the rational mind, and hence he may either confirm goods and truths or reject them when he comes to adult age, 5135. There are three degrees of innocence, signified by sucklings, infants, and boys ; in boyhood innocence begins to be put off*, 5236. It IS internal innocence commencing with the infancy of the new birth, that IS signified by these ages, for the Word in the internal sense only treats of the renascence or regeneration of man, 5236. There are three degrees of good, in all of which innocence is the essential, namely, love to the Lord, charity towards the neighbour, and good works ; none of these are genuine unless the superior be in it and innocence be within all, 5608. The true infancy of man is when the innocence of wisdom IS conjomed with the innocence of ignorance in old age, thus when he passes as an infant into the other life, 5608 end. Natural truth cannot be advanced to spiritual truth without charity be received in it, and in charity innocence, thus truth without innocence is not genuine, ill, 6013. Innocence from the inmost qualifies all the good of charity and love, for It IS by innocence that the Lord flows into charity, and the measure of charity received is according to the measure of innocence, 6107; see below 7840. The innocence of wisdom is imaged as in a INN 393 mirror by the conduct of children towards their parents, for the wisdom of man consists in acting from similar faith and love towards the Lord, 6107. The good which is not done from truth, and good qualified by falses, is accepted by the Lord if there be ignorance and innocence in such ignorance, thus a good end, 6405, 7887. Innocence is the uniting medium of good and truth, insomuch that it, in some .sort, conjoins truths not genuine, whereby to oppose falses and bring man into genuine truths, 6765. The influx of innocence from the Lord arranges goods in heaven, that is, the societies of angels, and when the good of one is insuflBcient for the reception of innocence, its state is filled up from the society nearest in conjunction, ill. 7836, 7839. The states of good in heaven are changed according to the influx of innocence, which flows into the first heaven immediately from the Lord, and into the second heaven mediately by the first, 7836. It is by innocence that the Lord flows in and vivifies the good of the regenerate man, hence called the good of innocence, which is either interior or exterior accord- ing as man is in interior or exterior truths, 7840. The good of inno- cence is the good of love to the Lord, the truth of the good of innocence is the good of charity, ill. 7S77; see below 9262. Man cannot receive pure truth, but truth is said to be purified from the false when man is capable of being held in the good of innocence, 7902. The innocent are they who are in interior good, abstractly, interior good itself; the just, they who are in exterior good, and abstractly, exterior good itself, ill. 9262. The good of innocence is divine good itself from the Lord with man, and its reception makes the heaven of innocence, 9262. The innocence of infancy and boyhood is external and dwells in dense ignorance, but the innocence of old age is internal, and dwells in wis- dom ; in what they severally consist, 9301 ; and passages cited seriatim, 10,021. The knowledges of good and truth are implanted in the innocence of infancy, which is their plane or ground ; the procedure of regeneration from a state of external innocence to a state of internal innocence briefly described, 10,021 ; the states and the ages through which they proceed more particularly specified, 10,225. Innocence must be in all good, and in all truth thence derived, to make it good and truth, 10,133, 10,134 and citations. Innocence is not only the plane in which truths are inseminated, but it is the essence itself of good, 10, 134. Innocence consists in acknowledging and loving the Lord, and in believing that all good and truth are from him ; thus in a willingness to be led by the Lord and not by self, 10,021. The more any one is in the love of self, the less he is in the good of innocence ; hence the less he is led by the Lord, and the more by hell, 10,210. All purifi- cation or removal from sins, is effected by the good of innocence, by the agency of truths, 10,210. The states of peace and innocence are variously described in the Word by lambs, kids, rams, and calves, by sucklings and children, &c., ill. and sh. 10,132. In every one who becomes regenerate there must be all the three degrees of innocence, external, internal, and inmost, 10,132, compare 10,042, near the end. 2. The innocent in heaven appear as infants naked and variously decorated, 154. Spirits who wish to attest their innocence in the other life present themselves naked, 165. Those who desire to be innocent from themselves, on being admitted into heaven, represented by an infant vomiting milk, 546. The quality of those at the present day >1 394 INN INS 395 who are against innocence, represented by the cruel treatment of a beautiful and innocent infant, 2126. The innocence of infancy repre- sented by somewhat woody and void of life, and the innocence of wis- dom by a beautiful living infant, 2306. They who have Uved in genuine conjugial love, are in the heaven of innocence and appear as infants to others ; it is by them the Lord flows into conjugial love, and they are also present with infants in their first age, 2736. That the celestial angels, are innocences and wisdoms, and dwell in the third heaven, in closest conjunction with the Lord, and appear as naked infants, 2306, 4286, 6013, 9262. Infants, who are innocences, suffer themselves to be governed by the angels, and are not led by the proprium like adults, 5608. 3. The proprium made beautiful by the insmuation of mnocence, signified by the man and his wife in the garden both naked, 163 — 165. Thought from innocence and from the affection of truth signified by the words of Abimelech, 2526. The state of peace and innocence preparatory to grievous temptations, signified by Abraham's arising in the morning and preparing to sacrifice his son, 2/80, 2786. The affec- tion of divine truth and the innocence of infancy supporting it, signified by Rebecca and her nurse, 3182, 3183. The first state of innocence, in which the proprium of man is apparent, signified by the black- coloured lambs acquired by Jacob, 3994, 4001 . The state of innocerice called guiltless, when the innocence of infancy begins to be put off, sig- nified by Joseph with the Egyptians called a boy, 5236. The innocence or internal state of the church sustained as well as the external by resort to scientifics, signified by the children of the sons of Israel sup- ported by corn from Egypt, 5608. The advancement of truth from natural to spiritual by the insinuation of innocence, signified by their children going with them into Egypt, 6013. The influx of good accord- ing to the quaUty of the good of innocence with every one, signified by Joseph's sustaining his father, and his brethren, and the whole house of his father with bread, to the mouth of an infant (according to their families), 6106, 6107. The infusion of innocence according to the special good of every one, and the conjunction of proximate goods in case of necessity, signified by every household, or two households as one, eating a paschal lamb, * 7832— 7836, 7839, 7840. The natural man prepared by the good of charity and innocence for purification, signified by the offering of a young bullock, 9391, 9990, 10,021 ; the internal man as to the good of innocence, by a ram, 10,042; the inmost good of innocence, comprising the whole man, by a lamb, 10,132; and the passages cited 9391, 10,210. The loss of all goods and truths by the loss of innocence, signified by the infant and the suckling perishing in the midst of Judah, by the infant and suckhng fainting in the streets, &c., 3183. All intelligence and all wisdom sustained by innocence, signified by kings thy nursing fathers and their queens thy nursing mothers, 3183. They who are in the truth and good of innocence, and how they are guarded from the evil, signified by the wolf dwelling with the lamb, and the leopard lying down with the kid, &c., 3519, 3994, 5609. They who are in any state of innocence guarded when the church is vastated, signified by the Israelites recognised and pre- served by the blood of a kid or a lamb sprinkled upon the door-posts when the first-born of Egypt were slain, 3519. Evils of ignorance, in which is innocence, not imputed to man, signified by the offering of a kid for transgressions in error, 3519. They who are in charity and innocence, and the Lord with them, signified by his gathering the lamt)s into his bosom, &c., 3994. Faith not genuine without charity, and love and charity nothing without innocence, signified by the words of the Lord to Peter, 3995. The state of innocence, in which alone the Lord can be received and acknowledged, signified by receiving a boy (or little one) in his name, by the children crying Hosanna, &c., 5236. All communication, influx, and access between man and the Lord, by innocence, signified by the words of the Lord, " Out of the mouth of the infant and suckling thou hast perfected praise," 5236. No one able to see the face of God unless from innocence, signified by the words of the Lord, that ** their angels in heaven always behold the face of my Father," 5608. Evils not possible to be remitted with those who profane the truth, signified by Jehovah's not rendering him inno- cent who takes his name in vain, 8882, 8883. The good of love to the Lord and the good of charity to the neighbour not to be violated, signified by the command not to slay the innocent and just, 9262. The good of innocence or the divine proceeding of the Lord with man ex- tinguished, signified by the shedding of innocent blood ; the law of Deut. xxi. 1—10 explained, 9262. The good of innocence appropriate to wisdom not to be conjoined with the truth of innocence appropriate to infancy, signified by the kid not to be seethed in its mother's milk, 9301, compare 3519. The Lord as innocence itself signified by a lamb, 3994, 7836. INORDINATE. See Order. INSANITIES are the want of bonds, which are affections, which close and terminate influx, ill. 5145, compare 4217. Insanities in spiritual things are occasioned by the want of charity and its affections, ill. 3938, ill. 5828, briefly 9801'; and what such insanities consist in at this day, 1630, 3646, 3726, 5116 end, 5398. As to insanities induced by reasonings and signified by drunkenness, &c., 5 1 20. See Drunken- ness. INSCRIBE, to. See to Write. INSECTS. As the nobler flying creatures signify things intel- lectual, and hence truths, insects, which also fly, denote such as are comparatively ignoble and obscure; in the opposite sense, falses, 7441. Noxious insects denote falses in the extremes of the natural mind, or in the sensual principle, derived from evils there, thus, the falses of malevolence, 7441, 7442. The fly of Egypt denotes the false of evil in the sensual principle, 7441, 9331, 10,582. Hornets signify falses fighting and slaying, and the dread or terror of them, the destruction of those who are in the falses of evil, sh. 9331, 9327. In general, insects denote the falses and evils of the external man, hence the signi- fication of moths, grubs, locusts, &c., sh. 9331. Man in the filthiness of his nature, compared to a fly amongst excrement, 1 594. See Locust, Caterpillar, Moth, Lice, Creeping thing. Worm. INSEMINATION, is predicated of what enters and is retained in the memory, but the seed can only take root in the good of charity, ill, 880. The good of charity is also inseminated by the Lord into every one, even those who are ignorant of the Word, 932. The insemination and rooting of faith is by the external way of the memory, but the 396 INS INS 397 \ affection of good is insinuated by the internal way of the soul, man not knowing, 2875, fully ill. 9296. The freedom of man is especially regarded by the Lord in the insemination of good, 9587. Nothing that is inseminated remains with man unless it be received in freedom, 9587, 9588. How the insemination and implantation of truths in good is to be conceived, 4301. See Insinuation. INSERTION. In the acquisition of truths, as in all other things, whether spiritual or natural, the more common precedes the more particular ; and into this the particulars are introduced by insertion or inapplication, 5208. The insertion of truths into scientifics effects the conjunction of the internal and external man, G052. The separation of worldly and corporeal things from the truths of faith, and the inser- tion of such things as keep them separate, is effected by temptations, 7090, compare 6052. The increase of purity or of comparative gross- ness is according to the insertion of homogeneous and heterogeneous things, also according to extension and compression, according to deter- minations, &c., the difference of discrete degrees, ex. 5146. As to the insertion of objects in the memory, and their subsequent insinuation in good, 4301. See Insinuation. INSIDIOUS, the, and their lot in the other life described, 827, 949, 5060, compare 9009. See Deceit. INSINUATION. Good and truth are insinuated into man's affec- tions and thoughts in perfect freedom, 2876, 2877, UL 4364. The good of faith, which is charity towards the neighbour, is insinuated by the Lord while man is in the affection of truth, UL 2979. The conjunction of good and truth is by the insinuation of good into the knowledges of truth, as into its recipient vessels, 3033 and citations. The regeneration of man is not the work of a moment, but it continues through the whole course of his life, for his concupiscences are to be extirpated and celestial affections insinuated in their place, 4063. The affection first insinuated when man enters upon the heavenly state is the affection of truth, which is insinuated into acquired truths, ilL by the passage of Jabbok, in the history of Jacob and Esau, 4270, 4271. The second insinuation is that of truth into good, ill, by Jacob's passing over Penuel, 4301. The insinuation of truths into good is effected by acting according to them, for thus good adapts them to itself, and they proceed more and more interiorly, 4353 ; see below, 8772, 8773. Truths are insinuated into good by reasons and affections confirming them and contributing to acknowledgement and faith, ill. by the presents sent forward by Jacob, 4364, 4365. The insinuation of truth into good is described by the procedure of Jacob to meet Esau, but it is only a rude image of the innumerable arcana involved in this process, and visible in the light of heaven, that can be conveyed to man, 4379. The truth of faith is really never acquired by any man, but is insinuated and given gratuitously by the Lord, yet man is permitted to think that it is from himself, ill. by the silver which Joseph returned to his brethren, after appearing to receive it, 5664 J, 5671 — 5675. See Gratis, Egypt (5.) The internal and external man can never be conjoined unless truths are insinuated into scientifics, ill. 6052. The insinuation of the truths of the church into scientifics is represented by the sons of Jacob going down into Egypt when Joseph was sojourning there, 6059 j ill. by their standing before Pharoah, 6071. Nothing of the good of charity, and nothing of the truth of faith can be insinuated into man, except by intellectual comprehension and perception, ill. 6125. The growth and increase of divine truth received among falses is by the insinuation of good, ill. by the discovery of Moses, and his mother called to nourish him, 6745 — 6747. Faith insinuated externally is merely natural, and is not to be attributed to the Lord, but it serves to confirm faith from the Lord, 8078. Faith is insinuated from the Lord by the reading of the Word, and illustration thereupon, which is according to the end in reading it, 8078. See Illustration. The truths which are insinuated by the Lord into the internal man act against the falses which are injected from hell into the external, ill. 8168. The insinua- tion of truth from the Lord into truth acquired by man, and its vivifi- cation thereby, gives birth to the truth of faith, ill. by the ascent of the dew and the manna appearing, 8456. The good that continually flows in from the Lord, draws to itself the truths which man acquires from without, and forms itself in them ; the truths first insinuated in this way are the primary articles of doctrine, and afterwards the more par- ticular, until the order of heaven or the state of Christian good is formed by their consociation, 8772, 8773. By insinuation is meant grateful initiation, 4365. See Insemination, Initiation, Insertion, Insition, Conjunction. INSITION. When some good is willed from the heart, and it flows into the thought, and thus inapplies and conjoins knowledges to itself, there is, so to speak, an insition of good in truths, 3033. See Insertion, Insinuation, Initiation, Conjunction. INSPIRATION, Revelation, Prophecy. 1. Inspiration, or breathing which makes the life of the body, denotes the state of love and faith, which makes the life of the spirit ; the respiration has also changed according to the changes of love and faith with man, 94 — 97, 1119,1120,3883—3895. See Respiration, Heart. Respiration and inspiration correspond to the life of faith, 9229. Inspiration represents vivification by faith and love ; the Word, also, is called inspired because it is breathed from the Lord, 9229, ill. and ah. 9818. The inspiration of the Word involves the existence of the celestial things of love, and the spiritual things of faith, in its bosom, consequently of divine things in every part of it, 1783, 1870, 1887, 2967, 4642. Unless the his- torical contents of the Word represented divine and heavenly things they could not be divinely inspired, for what is inspired by the Lord descends from him, and passes by the medium of angels and spirits to man, 1887, 6597, 8862. The inspiration of the Word, even to the least jot and tittle, causes that angels and spirits perceive its internal contents when it is read by man, 2763, 3382 ; thus, that the literal sense becomes spiritual and even divine as it ascends, 4373, 4642. The Word is holy because it is inspired as to every jot and tittle, in virtue of its procedure from the Lord himself ; how it is variously accom- modated to the apprehensions of angels and men, 8862, 9094. Inspira- tion is not dictation but influx, and what flows-in from the Lord is celestial and spiritual in heaven, but worldly in the world; yet the latter contains and expresses the former, 9094, compare 5121, 7055, 8780, and the author's work on Heaven and Hell, 254. The holy spirit, or holy proceeding from the Lord, is so named from breathing or inspi- / 898 INS INS ration, thus, from wind, 9229, fully ill. and sh. 9818. See Influx, Illustration, Idea, Holy. 2. Revelation, The truths of faith can only be known bv revelation from the Word, ill. 865, ill. 8944. A revelation or Word is necessary, because it is the common vessel recipient of celestial and spiritual things, 'thus, of conjoining heaven and earth, 1775. Revelation is according to perception, as signified by the various kinds of vision in the case of the Jewish people, in the case of Moses, the Prophets, &'c., 1 786, compare 2523. Revelation is internal perception, and is from percep- tion, 5111. All revelation is either from discourse with angels, by whom the Lord speaks, or from perception, 5121 ; sec above 9094. They have revelation from perception, which is internal revelation, who are m good, and from good in truth; thus, the celestial angels, the men of the most ancient church, and some of the ancient church, but at this day hardly any, 5121; see below 8694. It is possible for those who are not in good and truth to have external revelation, and this by an audible living voice, thus by angels, from the Lord; such were the Terbal and visual revelations of many prophets in the Jewish church, 5121. Revelation from the perception of the interior rational mind flows into the natural also, ill. 5150. Revelations are effected by dreams, by visions of the night, by visions of the day, by inward speech, by outward apeech from visible angels, and by outward speech from aneels invisible ; visions of the night signify obscure revelation, 6000 ; and as to the various methods of revelation in the four successive churches, 10,355, 10,632. They who are in good, and in the desire of truth, have revelation when they read the Word, and this by illustra- tion and perception derived therefrom, but there is no revelation to the evil when they read the Word, 8694. The quality of the revelation enjoyed by the good when they read the Word cannot be described ; it is not manifest, nor altogether occult ; it is from the light of heaven flowing in, 8694, further ex. 8780, 8813. Divine truth as revealed from heaven is common, as compared with divine truth itself in heaven, ill. 8823. The Word reveals itself by holv influx to all who are in good, and when it is not received the fault is with those who read it, in con- sequence of the opposition of their interiors, ill. 8971. The beginning of revelation was the promulgation of the law from Mount Sinai, for the remaining contents of the Word were composed afterwards, 94 1 4, 1 0,605, 10,606, 10,632. The beginning of the revelation of divine truth was the law of the ten commandments, which was delivered by an audible voice from the Lord in the presence of all the Israelitish people, 9416. The revelation of divine truth by the breast-plate was manifested by resplendent lights, from the light of divine truth passing to ultimates ; these splendours were accompanied by a living voice replying to the interrogation, 9905. Divine revelation, thus the Word, descends from the inmost heaven, from divine love there, 10,606. See Word. How sorprised the spirits of a certain earth in the starry heavens were at the manner in which divine truth is revealed and published in this earth, 10,384. How, in another of those earths, divine truths are revealed to their teachers, by the discourse and appearance of angels at the instant of awaking, 10,833. See Vision, Perception. 3^ Prophets and Prophecy. Prophets, in the sense of the letter. 399 denote those to whom a revelation is given, and abstractly the revelation itself; but in the internal sense they denote teaching and ?n'r'uf '^. **"? ^^'"'l^ t»»g^t' 2535, 7268, 7269, 8337, 8902, 10,083 ; m the opposite sense, they who teach falses, 2353, 3301. A prophet IS one who enunciates the divine truth adequatelv to the under- standmg of others, 7268. A prophet denotes the divine truth itself, or the Mord, consequently the Lord, 9188, 9198. The prophets were clothed in hairy coats, because they represented the doctrine of good and truth in ultimates, 3301, 3540, 4677; as to John the Baptist and Jiilias m particular, 9372. W^heu prophets are named in the Word the prophetic Word itself is meant, but with a difference, 3652 ; and as to the whole of the Word, signified by the Law and the Prophets, 2606. Ihe prophets of old sometimes delivered predictions which were true, and saw visions, and yet persuaded to the worship of false gods ; why It was permitted, 3698. See to Divine, Magic. The prophetical parts of the Word do not hold the mind in the sense of the letter, like the historical parts, but render the internal sense more apparent, 4495, 6333. In the prophetical parts of the Word the six names, Judah, Joseph, Benjamin, Ephraim, Israel, and Jacob, are of common occur- rence; the vanous degrees of illustration signified by them, 4592. Divine truth was manifested to the prophets in ancient times, either bv words of speech, by visions, or by dreams, hence, they denote predica- tion and instruction, 4682. Prophetic revelations in the Jewish church were not from perception, but from the discourse of angels, by whom the Lord spake, and by visions and dreams, 5121. The prophets of the Jewish church were informed by influx from the world of spirits, and from heaven, partly by visions, partly by dreams, and partly by an audible voice ; in some cases they were the mere instruments of spirits who occupied their bodies, and even acted as if insane ; the author's expenence, 62 1 2. The prophets wrote the Word from divine dictation, for the words were actually spoken in their ears, but not by immediate influx, for thev had no perception, 7055. When seeing or vision is mentioned of the prophets, revelation as regards doctrine is meant, and when divining is predicated of them, revelation as regards life, 9248. Ihe representatives of heavenly and spiritual things shown to the pro- phets, were seen by them when their interior sight, which is the sight of the spirit, was opened ; how such representations flow in from the supenor heavens, &c., 9457. Prophets were anointed because they represented the Lord as to the doctrine of divine truth, thus the Word, and all inaugurations to represent divine things was by anointings* 9954. Prophets were called " Sent," because the words they spoke were from the holy spirit, or proceeding of the Lord, 2397. The first prophecy of the Lord's advent into the worid, 250. INSTINCT.

The essential can only act according as the instrumental is formed, thus, the spirit according to the «>l\2»»^- INTEGUMENTS. There are societies of spirits who constmite the external integuments of the body, briefly described 5554. Ihe internal and external, considered in themselves, are distinct, but they are together in the natuml man, the internal ^ 5**^ ^^^^^f^ '^^ Zl^ own efficient and adequate form ; the things with which the internal thus clothes itself are nothing but integuments, and. of themselves, incapable of action. 6275. The external is called an »«teg"ment be- cause it invests and closes-in what is above, or internal, 9544. compare 6377. See Garment. Skin, Vessel, External. INTELLIGENCE, Intellect. See Understanding. INTENTION. They who do good works, not from truths, are iustified, if the intention be to do good, and there be innocence in their ignorance, 6405. Thev who are alienated from truth and good intend nothing but evil, and the intention or end is the very life of man, and prevails universally in all his thoughts, 6571. See End. . . INTERCESSION, the, of the Lord for the human race, is signitied bv the intercession of Abraham for the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. INT 401 2140, 2141, compare 1778. The Lord interceded for the human race when he was in the world, and in a state of humiliation, for then he spoke with Jehovah as with another, but in his state of glorification he compassionates ; thus intercession is mercy itself, 2250. Love and mercy are continual intercession, thus the Lord, who is infinite mercy, continually excuses and continually remits, 8573. Divine truth con- tinually intercedes for man, because it proceeds from divine good, and this is what is meant by the intercession of the Lord with the Father, til. 8573. Mediation and intercession are predicated of divine truth, because it is proximate to divine good; and divine truth is proximate to divine good, which is the Lord, because it proceeds from him. 8705. The idea of the simple concerning mediation and intercession is that of a son asking a favour of his father, 8573, 8705 ; and it is so expressed because no idea of what is divine can be had without an idea of what is human, ill. 8705. The Lord is the mediator and intercessor as to the divine human, but he mediates and intercedes with himself ; and there is no mediation between those and the divine, who remove the idea of the divine human from their minds, 8705. Intercessions or prayers for deliverance out of temptations are useless until the end for which temptations are permitted is answered, by the subjugation of evil on the part of man as of himself, 8179, compare 2933. INTERIOR. See Internal. INTERMEDIATE [intermedium']. See Inmost, Middle. INTERNAL, Interior: — 1. Universally. The internal is con- tained in the external and makes one with it by influx, ill. by examples, 161, 162, 994, 995, 1873, 9216. There is nothing in externals but what is produced from the interiors, and thus successively from the inmost, 994, 995. It is a law of order that exteriors be subject to interiors, or, what is the same, inferiors to superiors, ill. 5127, ill. 5128, 5947. Interiors are in a more perfect state than exteriors, because they are nearer the divine, 3855. 5146, 5147, 5396, ill. 9666. The appearance of internals ih externals, and their representation therein is by corre- spondence, and if correspondence and conjunction be wanting they ap- pear like opposites, 5422, 5423, 5511. That which is inmost in the successive order of things, occupies the midst when the whole exist together in externals, 5897. 6239, ill. 6451, 8603, 9216, 10,099. When they exist in this order, the internal is in the external as in its adequate form, but when they do not correspond together the internal is without a foundation or receptacle, and perishes, compare 6275, 6284, 6299. Life flows through from the inmost to the ultimates of order before it comes to its rest, and because the interiors exist together in ultimates, it appears as if life were therein, 6451. The existence of interiors in exteriors is not by continuity, but according to the forma- tion of one thing from another successively ; hence, interior things are distinct from exterior, although they are in them. ill. 6465. The in- ternals correspond with the externals in whatever proceeds from the di- vine, thus external goods and truths are still more good and true in in- ternals, and the Lord himself is in them, ill. 8868, 8870. Internals flow into externals and repose in them, and such is their connection that the internals cannot be preserved in order without the externals, ill. 9216, further ill. by the signification of the belt, 9828. Nothing can exist in exteriors but from something prior and interior; thus. D D 402 INT the existence and subsistence of all things is from internals, ill. 9473; and the internal gives them their quality, 9912, 9921, 9922. In every case where there is an internal and an external there must be a con- joining medium, which is the middle or interior, 10,236, compare 10,185. Exterior and interior denote the same thing as inferior and superior, 3084 ; thus, interior things are denoted by altitudes, and heaven, which is internal, is considered to be on high, 1735, 2147, 2148, 3/39, 4210, 4482, 5146, 10,181, 10,184, 10,400 and citations. 2. Of Influx from IntemaU. All influx is from interiors to ex- teriors, 3219, 5119, 5259, 5427, 5428, 5477, 5779, 6322, 8237, 9110, 10,199. All things are held in series and connection by influx from the internal by means of the interiors, and its procedure to ultimates, 634, 5897, 6239, ill. 6451, ill. 6465, ill. 8603, 9216, ill. 9828, 10,099. Divine influx passes from the inmost to the inferiors or outermost, and this both immediately and by mediation, 5147, 5150, 6063, 6307, 6472, 6473, 7004, 7270, 8719; and passages cited 9682, 9683. The interiors flow into the exteriors in successive order, but they exist and subsist in exteriors in simultaneous order, thus from inmost to out- most, 5897, 6239, 6451, 8603, 9216, 10,099. The Lord flows in with man by the internal way of his soul, thus by the inmost into his interiors, and hereby again into his externals, but the world, by the external way of the body, 3855, 5081. Influx is by the internal man into the external, or by the spirit into the body, and not contrariwise, because the spirit of man is in the spiritual world and the body in the natural, 1702, 1707, 1940, 1954, 5119, 5259, 5779, 6322, collated with 978, 1015, 3628, 4459, 4523, 4524, 6057, 6309, 6319, 9701— 9709, 10,156, 10,472, and the whole in a summary, 6057, 6063. The appearance of influx from the external into the internal, by the medium of the senses, is a fallacy, for all influx is from interiors to exteriors, 3721, 5779, passages cited 10,199. The internal man acts in the external solely by influx, 5885. All conjunction and communication between superiors and inferiors, or between interiors and exteriors, is by influx, 3542, 3603, 3695, 3725, 5320, 5328, 5926, 6033, 8079, ill. 9913—9914, 10,429. See Influx. 3, Internals and Interiors predicated of man. It is known that there is an internal and an external man, but not what the internal man is, 1889. Few believe there is an internal man, but the distinc- tion between the internal and external may be known from various considerations, 6309. The distinction between the internal and ex- ternal man is not perceived before man begins to be regenerated, 24. The internal and external make one by influx, ill. 161, 162. The in- ternal is distinguished into three degrees more and more interior, 634. The internal man is as distinct from the external as heaven from earth, 978 ; see below, 1577, 4053, 5883. That which is interior in man is called heaven, and that which is exterior is called earth, 82, 89, 620, 636, 913, 141 1, 1732. The interiors of man are formed to the image , of heaven, the exteriors-to the image of the world, 1733, 3628, 4523, 4524, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9300, 9706, 10,156, 10,429, 10,472. The spiritual world and the natural are conjoined together in man, 6057 ; and the descent from the one to the other is by him, 3702, 4022. The internals of man are his heaven, because he is thereby conjoined with the angels, but his externals are his earth, because he is thereby con- INT 403 joined with men, 3023, 4963; see below, 3167, 4053, 10,471. The distinction between the internal and external man is the distinction of degree, as between cause and effect, thus they are not united by con- tinuity, 3691, 5114, 5146, 6275, 6284, 6299, 6326, particularly 6465, 8603,10,076, 10,099, 10,181. The internal man is not the thought, but thought pertains to the external, 978; see below, 3679, 5127. The internal man consists of the goods and truths corresponding to the three heavens, 978, ill. 3691, 3739, 4286, 4330. The internal and external is predicated of spirits as well as men, for the internal man is formed from celestial and spiritual things, the interior or middle man from rational things, and the external from sensual things derived from corporeal, 978, 1015; generally, the internal man is spiritual, the ex- ternal natural, 9701 — 9708. Properly speaking, the external man is man thinking from sensual things, and the internal, from spiritual and celestial things ; the rational is between these, and is the means of communication between the internal and external, 978. Internal affections are produced through the interiors, and terminate in the pleasures of the body; hence there is not anything in externals in which the interiors do not exist together in order, 994, 995 ; see above, 5897. Internal affections are more felicitous than the external affec- tions produced from them, thus, delight grows viler in proportion as it approaches to what is external, 996. The internal man is formed from celestial and spiritual things which are of the Lord alone, and its operation is only perceived obscurely in the interior or rational, 1015. All things of the internal man are terminated in the external when man is regenerated, 1083. The things of the external man are vessels recipient of influx from the internal, 1460. It is from the internal man, that is, from the spirit or soul, that the external principally de- rives its life ; and this life is received by the external according as its organical vessels are opened, 1563. The vessels of the external man are opened by means of the senses, thus, by pleasures and delights ; hence there are things which agree and things which disagree with the internal man therein, 1563, 1568. Those things in the external man which agree with the internal are the effects of its own goods and feli- cities, for it is only with these that the internal can cohabit as their cause, 1568. There ought to be no discordance between the internal and external, yet their state is such that they can only be united so far as the Lord is with them as the uniting medium, 1577. The internal man is said to be united to the external when its celestial spiritual things flow into natural, and cause the external and internal to act as one, 1577. The internal and external are distinct because the former is affected only by celestial and spiritual things, the latter by natural things, 1577; see below, 4053, 5036. In the case of the Lord the internal and external were united, and it is only his proceeding good that unites them with others, 1577, 1590. The beauty of the ex- ternal man when conjoined to the internal cannot be described, for such conjunction only exists with the Lord, 1584, 1590. Evil lusts and false persuasions, but principally the love of self, is what separates the internal man from the external; mutual love, on the contrary, conjoins them, 1587, 1594. Mutual love really makes the internal man, for it is the interior man which is the soul or spirit, and the in- ternal is in it when man is principled in mutual love, 1594 ; but the spirit D D 2 404 INT described as the internal man, and the body as the external, and the manner in which the one is in the other, 4622, 4G52, 4659 ; see below, 5883. The internal man is the celestial proprium given by the Lord, and is therefore spoken of as man*s own, but it is of the Lord, yea, it is the Lord with him, 1594; see below, 1940. The very life of the internal man consists in the celestial things of love, in which Je- hovah is present ; this presence is not perceived in the external man until the internal is conjoined with it, 1616. The internal man with which there is good and truth itself, communicates with the external, in which there is nothing but what is evil and false, by the interior or rational, 1702, 1707. It is to the interior man that the internal or divine is adjoined, and by which it purifies the exterior, and this by its influx therein, 1707. The internal man with every individual is of the Lord alone, for there he stores up the goods and truths with which he gifts man from infancy, and by which he flows into the in- terior or rational, 1707. The influx of the Lord by the internal man is two-fold, with the regenerate by good, and with the unregenerate by truth, thus, either celestial or spiritual, 1707, 1725, 1732. When goods from the internal man flow into the interior, the internal appro- priates the interior as its own ; and when the interior flows into the external, it also appropriates the external as its own ; in each case without eff'acing the distinction between them, 1707, compare 1999, 2181, 2183; and how the external assumes a new order around the internal, 645 1 . The celestial things of the interior man are all things of love, 1725. Without the interior, the internal man could have no communication with the external, and its communication thereby is either celestial or spiritual, 1732. It is by the internal that man is an heir of the Lord's kingdom, and only by the external so far it makes one with the internal, 1802. The interiors, and thus the internals, are formed by instruction, and adapted to receive the goods of love and the truths of faith, and according as these are received man is admitted into a more interior heaven, 1802. Exterior objects serve as a plane for the contemplation of internal things, to which end the in- terior sight is brought as it were out of doors by the organ of vision, 1806, 1807. Man derives all that is internal from the father, thus the soul or life itself, and all that is external from the mother, 1815, 2005, 4963. With every one there is an internal man, a rational, which is the middle, and an external, which is the natural man, 1889, 1893, 1940, 2181, 2183, 6451; the natural man considered in itself is also external, middle, and internal, 6844 and citations, 10,236; or, more generally, internal and external, 4570, 5118, 5126, 5497, 5649, 7601. The middle or interior is what conjoins the internal and ex- ternal, 10,236, 10,185. The interior or rational man is conceived and bom from the influx of the internal into the external, 1889 ; thus, it is not connate with man, but only the faculty of becoming rational, 1893; see below, 2093. The internal man is his inmost or first form, from which he is man, and by which he is distinguished from brute animals, for it is as the gate or entrance of the Lord with him, 1940, 1999; see below, 7424. What is transacted in the internal man is beyond all human understanding, but it is the medium by which the liord enters into the rational mind with the celestial things of love and faith, 1 940. It is by virtue of the internal man that man lives to I INT 405 eternity, for it is hereby the Lord is united to him, 1999. The heaven proximate to the Lord is formed from these human internals, and is above the inmost angelic heaven, thus, these internals are of the Lord himself, and hereby the whole human race is most present to him, 1999. These internals of man have not life in themselves, but they are recipients of the Lord's life, and so far as man is the subject of evil he is as it were separate from his internal, 1999. The separation of man from the human internal is not disjunction, for then he could not live after death, but it is disagreement, 1999, t7/. 2018. The in- ternal man is of the Lord with man, and the rational is as it were of man, 1940, 1999. The first rational is conceived and born from the influx of the internal man into the life of the affection of sciences pertaining to the external, the second rational (in the case of the re- generate) from the influx of divine good and truth by the internal man, 2093 ; as to their diverse quality, 2654. Unless the internal and ex- ternal be conjoined in one, thus unless rational good be one with natural good, there can be no divine perception, 2181, 2183. The more interior can perceive what is transacting in the exterior, but not contrariwise ; hence, if anything false be discovered in his rational mind by man, he may know that such perception is from the influx of the Lord by the internal man, 1914, 1953, 2654. The internal man from the light in which he is can see all that is in the external, but not con- trariwise, unless there be correspondence and a medium, 5427, 5428, 5477; what the medium is, 5920 and citations; see below, 3679, 10,236. To the interior or rational man pertains the interior memory, from which spirits discourse with each other throughout the universe, 3020, 2476. The internal man is the same as the spiritual man, and is wise from the light of heaven ; the external man is the same as the natural, and is wise from the light of the world, 3167, UL 3224, ill. 10,134 ; see below, 3679. The internal man in the course of regener- ation receives truths before the external, and hence arises temptation combats, 3321. The end of regeneration is to make man new as to his internal, thus, as to his soul or spirit, but this cannot be done unless his external be also regenerated, ill. 3539 ; see below, 6299, 6564, 7442. It is the internal man which thinks, but while man lives in the body it thinks in the external, hence, if there be not correspond- ence between the rational and the natural, man cannot think spiritually, t7/. 3679, largely illustrated, 5422, 5423, 5427, 5428, 5477, 5511, 10,240. The internal way is opened for influx and communication from heaven, and thereby from the Lord, when man sufi'ers himself to be illuminated by the Word, 3708 near the end, particularly 10,400. The divine is in the supreme, and above the inmost ; but it flows into the inmost, and hereby into the interiors of man, &c., 3855, 6451. The externals of man are further from the divine than the internals, and for this reason they are respectively inordinate, ill. 3855 ; in other words, the interiors, which are nearer to the divine are more perfect, 5146, 5147. The Lord rules what is disorderly and tumultuous m externals from what is pacific in the internal ; from experience, 5396, (duplicate number). It is the internal man which lives in the external, and which flows into it and rules it, 4053. The internal man is in the spiritual worid and the external in the natural, 4053 ; see below, 5036, 6629 ; thus, man is so created that he can look inwards, or to divine 406 INT things, and outwards to himself and the world, 7601, particularly 7604, 7607. Unless the external man be conjoined with the internal there can be no fructification of good or multiplication of truth, ilL 3987. So far as celestial things, which are of the internal man, have the do- minion, truths are multiplied, but so far as worldly things, which are of the external man, have the dominion, so far truths are diminished and vanish away, 4099. The thought of the internal man coincides with the thought of angels and spirits even while man lives in the world, and though he is ignorant of it, 4104. When the externals are put off at death, the internals become manifest, such as they secretly were while man lived in the world, 4314 end, 5128, compare 10,284. They who are in externals only can have no other than an evil inten- tion and opinion concerning the good and truth of the internal man, 4459. All are in externals only who cherish the good and the true for the sake of the honour or gain accruing to them, &c.; such also have no conscience, for it is by conscience that the internal man manifests himself; other illustrations of what it is to be in externals only and in internals, 4459, 10,429, 10,472, 10,483; see below, 10,492; and reasons why man ought to be in internals, 4464. Man as to his in- teriors is continually in the society of spirits and angels though he is ignorant of it, ill. 5036, 7910, compare 5897 end, and see below, 10,429. They who are in love and charity are in heaven as to the in- ternal man, and they are in society there with those who are in a good similar to their own, 6629. The exterior and interior natural are both of the exterior man, and the rational of the interior, 5126 ; the external and internal of both ill. 4570; and of the natural in particular, 5118, 5497, 5649, 7601 . The sensual man imagines that to think and to will is interior, and to speak and to act exterior, but to think and to will from sensual things is merely exterior, ill. 5127; how exteriors ought to be subject to interiors, or sensual and natural things to rational, 5128. Interior thought is to think from truth, and interior will is to act from good, 5127. At the present day there is no affection for interior things as there was with the ancients, for the whole mind is occupied by the affection for exteriors, 5224 ; hence the doctrine of the internal man is alienated from the faith of the age, 5886. The external man ought to be altogether subject to the internal, so that the internal may act in it as its instrument, thus, man ought not to allow himself any liberty from the proprium, ilL 5786, compare 5947. Communication, &c., is predicated of the internal and external, because the life of the former is distinct from that of the latter, insomuch that it still lives when separated from it by death, 5883. The external appears to live because the interiors exist all-together in ultimates, ilL 6451. The in- ternal man which lives after the death of the body is the man himself who lived in the body, and appears as a man in the other life, 5883. The internal elevates the natural to itself, gradually, by successive births, which are more and more interior, 6239. The internal and external are perfectly distinct from each other, but where they are to- gether the internal is in the external as in its adequate form, which form can only act from it as an effect from its cause, 6275. The external lives from the internal, but it is only by the external that the internal can act as a cause in that lower sphere, and produce effects there, 6275, 6284, ill, 6299. If the external do not correspond to the INT 407 u 1^ internal, then the internal is without a foundation or receptacle, and nothing can pass from heaven to the natural man, 6299. No idea can be formed of the internal and external man without a knowledge of the formation of one thing from another by discrete degrees, thus, not by the coherence of things from purer to grosser, ill. 6465. The Lord continually flows in with good and truth by the internal man, but in the degree that it is perverted in externals, man closes up the interior way, 6564, ill, 7442, compare 6845 ; and see below (5.) 7601, 7604. Man is elevated from sensual things and from the light of the world towards interiors, when he reflects upon the things of love and faith, provided he is in good ; but he is not aware of such elevation, because he is ignorant of the distinction between interiors and exteriors, ill, 6844. When man is elevated from sensual things the divine does not flow through into them, but terminates in the interior plane^ into which man is elevated, 6845, compare 7442 and passages cited, 7645. The real quality of man is according to his interiors, but the interiors are not apparent in the world, for the evil act contrary in exteriors to their interior will and thought, 6907, 7046, 10,284, 10,309. The in- teriors of the evil are defiled, howsoever the external appear otherwise, HL 7046, 10,284, 10,309, they are also turned outwards like the inte- riors of animals, ill. 10,284. The interiors of those who are in evil, and which are defiled, are the interiors of the external man, for the internal man, which is in heaven, is closed with them, 10,429. Man is a man from his internal man and its quality, not from his external ; the external considered in itself is only an animal, 7424, 10,236 ; see above, 1940. The influx of the Lord by the internal man passes through to ulti- mates, and even by sensual things into the body ; hence, if the external man be not regenerated, the life of the Lord is perverted as it flows in, 7442 ; see above, 6845. When the natural man is regenerated, it is subordinate in all things to the interiors, and interiors, flowing i". P"t on their common form and manifestation in the natural, 7442, 8/45. When the natural man is not regenerated, but puts all its good m pleasure and gain, &c., then the internal man not only consents to evil, but supplies reasons confirming and promoting it ; thus the in- ternal serves and the external rules, 8744. See Good (3.), External, Natural. The interiors of man are terminated in his ultimates or extremes, where truths and goods belonging to discrete degrees close-m too-ether ; hence, if the exteriors of the natural mind are occupied with evTls and falses the interiors are also, 7645. They whose interiors are more open are proportionately more receptive of divine good and divine felicity ; but the contrary is the case with those who do not live m the order of heaven, 8114. All that is done according to divine order is open within even to the Lord, and thus has heaven m itself ; hence he is led by good from the Lord who lives in divine order, and his in- teriors are opened by the Lord, 8513. The internal man is open with those who are in faith and love to the Lord, but it is closed above and opened beneath, thus to hell, with those who are in evil, 9128. When man accepts the life of faith and charity the internal man has insight into the external, and clearly discerns whether a thing be good or evil, ill, 9128. When man is principled in genuine truth and genuine good, it is the intellectual part of the internal man that is illustrated by the former, and the voluntary part of the internal man that is kindled by //: 408 INT the latter, 9300. The external memory serves the understanding or internal sight as a plane of objects from which to elect and draw forth such as convene with its own love; in like manner with regard to the internal man in spiritual things, ill, 9723. The state of man when he is undergoing regeneration is varied by elevations to interiors and alter- nate demersions in exteriors, ill. 10,134. The regeneration of man is effected by the removal of evils when he comes into a state of love and light as to the internal, ill. 10,134. The external man is in hell unless man be made spiritual by regeneration; in that case, heaven is opened in him by his elevation to interiors, and hell is removed and separated from him, ill. 10,156; compare 10,188. The interiors of man which are of his understanding and will are in the spiritual world, but his ex- ternals which are of the bodily senses in the natural; how all external sensations are from internal and correspond to them, 10,199. Nothing is pure with man unless the extremes are purified, for the interiors flow into them, and such influx is according to their state, passages cited seriatim, 10,208. While man is in the world he cannot perceive what is transacting in the internal man, but only in the external, 10,236, 10,240. The internal man is the heaven of man, and, when opened, is lord of the external, which is as a servant; the case is similar with the external of worship, and also with the external of the church and of the Word, 10,471 ; that the internal is one and the same in each case, 10,483. They who are in the loves of self and the world cannot enter into internals, for they are not receptive of them, 10,483. Evils and falses from the loves of self and the world close the internal man, ill. by the contraction of fibres, the aversion of opposites, &c., 10,492; and that the interiors of man actually turn themselves according to his loves, 10,702. When the internal man is closed, no light from heaven can flow-in and illustrate him, 10,551, i//. 10,702. The doctrine of the internal and external man in a summary, 9 701— -9709, 9796 — 9802, 10,591—10,597, 10,719. As to the interior or rational man more particularly, see Good (15.), Reason. It is not necessary to salvation that every one should be acquainted with the truths relating to the internal man, provided it be acknowledged that there is an in- ternal and external, and that all good and truth are from the Lord, 978 end, 1100. The internal man and his knowledges distinct from the external, denoted by the expanse distinguishing between the waters and the waters, 24. Love in the will, and faith in the understanding of the internal man, denoted by the two luminaries in the expanse of heaven, 30 — 37.

The external man not yet subservient to the internal, denoted by there being no man to till the ground, 89. The external man become obedient to the internal and made living, denoted by man formed from the dust of the ground, 94 — 97.

The internal man relinquished, and celestial and spiritual things ad- joined to the proprium, denoted by man's leaving his father and mother INT 409 and cleaving to his wife, 160, 161. The operation of the internal man in the external signified by the creatures diffusing themselves in the earth (after the flood), 913. The dominion of the internal man over the external, denoted by all the creatures of the earth fearing man, &c., 979 end, 985—992. The interiors of man increasing in good and truths, denoted by the family of Noah commanded to fructify and mul- tiply in the earth, 1014, 1015. The connection of the internal man with the external before regeneration, denoted by the history of Abram while Lot accompanied with him, 1535—1539, 1563. The discordancy between the goods of the internal man and the goods of the external, denoted by the strife between the herdsmen of Abram and the herds- men of Lot, 1571, 1572. The separation of such things as occasion discordance between the internal and external, denoted by Lot's jour- neying away from Abram, 1593. The internal man principled in the celestial things of love, denoted by Abram's dwelling in the land of Canaan, 1595, 1596. Illumination when the internal and external are no longer at variance, denoted by Jehovah's appearing to Abram after the removal of Lot, 1603, 1604. The interior or rational man adjoined to the internal or divine, and serving it, denoted by Abram the Hebrew, 1701, 1702. The interior man purifying the exterior by its influx prevailing, denoted by Abram and his armed servants delivering Lot, 1706—1715. The influx of celestial and spiritual things, and the recreation of the interior man after victory, denoted by Melchizedek and his refreshing Abram, 1724, 1727. The interior man contem- plating celestial and spiritual things in externals denoted by Abram's regarding the stars, 1805, 1806. The interior or rational man first produced from the internal by influx inciting the affection of truth in the external, denoted by the. conception and birth of Ishmael, 1889, 1892—1896, 1898—1902, 1904, 1907, 1910, 1911, 1915, 1916, 1964, 3264. The rational man afterwards produced from the conjoint influx of good and truth in the internal man, denoted by the conception and birth of Isaac, 2066, 2083, 2093, 2194, 2630, 2666, and passages cited, 3365, 4180, 4614. The natural man as to good and truth, con- ceived together and produced from the rational, denoted by the concep- tion and birth of Esau and Jacob, 3232, 3288, 3293, 3294, 3299 — 3306; and afterwards by Jacob only, 3659. All things of love and faith in externals, when the internal man or internal good is operative therein, conceived and produced by its conjunction with the several affections of truth, denoted by the fathers of the twelve tribes born to Jacob, 3829, 5858, 3860, 3862, 3902, 3969. The interior man first conjoined with the exterior, and thus brought forth alive, or man be- come spiritual, denoted by the birth of Joseph, 3969, 3971 ; and furthermore, by Benjamin, 3969, 4536, 4586—4592. As to the new will and the new understanding from the internal man, denoted by Ephraim and Manasseh, 6222. See Abram {supplement), Isaac, Jacob, Tribes, Egypt (5). 4. The internal man predicated of the Lord, The external man is the human essence, the internal is the Divine, 1535, 1584. The Lord alone conjoined the external man to the internal, 1584, compare 1999. The Lord as to the internal man was one with Jehovah, 1602, 1999, 2083, 4963. The Lord conjoined the external to the internal by his own power, and gradually, ill. 1616, 2083. So far as the external was ('i 410 INT INT 411 united to the internal, the Lord was in interior thought, 1926. With the Lord, the internal man was life itself, not a recipient of life as is the case with man, 1999. The Lord's internal man was represented, as to divine good, bj Abraham, and, as to divine truth, by Sarah, 2093. See Lord. 5. The Internal of the Church and of Worship, The church is internal and external because man who forms the church is so, 1083. Externals are for the sake of the internals to which they lead, and the internals of the church are all things of charity and faith, all humilia- tion, all adoration of the Lord from charity, and all good towards the neighbour, 1083, compare 1153. The internal would be as somewhat indeterminate unless it existed in an external, hence the need of external worship, 1083. Internal worship is in external with those who have charity and conscience, for the Lord works in charity and conscience and causes that all their external worship partakes of the internal, 1083. External worship regarded in itself is nothing, unless there be internal worship in it, which makes it holy, without this it is mere babbling, 1094, 1102, 1175. There is an internal principle in the worship of those who are of the external church, if they be in charity, notwithstanding their ignorance, 1100; how they may certify them- selves whether it be so, 1102 end, 1150. The man of the internal church attributes to the Lord all the good that he does and all the truth that he thinks ; but the man of the external church corresponding to the internal ignores this, though he still does good ; other charac- teristics described, 1098. The man of the external church separate from the internal does nothing from charity and conscience, but is a strict observer of external rites, and condemns those who do not observe them, 1103, 1200. If the internal be separated from worship, which is love to the Lord and love to the neighbour, it is nothing but idolatry, 1151, 1242. Internal worship, which is from love and charity, is worship itself, and worship is made external when the latter is regarded as the essential, 11/5. The truth is that external worship is nothing without internal, not that internal worship is nothing without external, 11 75. External worship is the formal of internal, which is the essential itself; hence to make worship of the formal only, is to make it ex- ternal, 1175. Those who make internal worship the essential observe the rites of the church equally with those who make the external essen- tial, but their external worship is holy and living, which is not the case with the latter, 1175. External worship is altogether qualified by the interiors, and in proportion as the interiors are more profane, external worship is also more profane, 1182. They cannot have internal wor- ship who do not believe in eternal life ; nor such as live the life of the body and the world only, 1 200. In every church there must be an internal and an external, for without an internal it cannot be called a church, 1242. The external of the church is nothing unless the internal vivify it, but when the internal is in it it is like the body in which the spirit is, ill, 1795, compare 3020. The internal church consists of those who are in the affection of good ; the external of those who are in the affection of truth, 3447. The church is not the church from externals, that is, from rituals, but from internals, 4831 ; and this because the communication of man with heaven and with the Lord is by the internal, 10,698. The Word and preaching therefrom does not constitute the church, unless there be the marriage of good and truth, and thus internals be in externals, 4899. The internals of the church which the Lord taught, were known to the ancients ; but the ancients were led to internal things by representatives, and the Lord abolished representatives, 4904, ilL 8762. The internal of the church is spiritual good, the external natural good ; and it comes to the same thing whichever expression is used, 5965. The internal of the church is the affection of charity, or the sense of rest and blessedness in doing well to the neighbour without any regard to remuneration ; the external, is to will and act well to him because it is so commanded, 6299. The internal of the church is to will good from the heart and be affected therewith ; its external (with such) consists in the practice of good according to their knowledge of truth, 6587. The external of the church consists in the holy observance of rituals, and in works of charity according to the precepts of the church ; but when the internal prmciple is wanting, the church ceases, 6587, 6595. The external of the church without the internal, is like the bones of a man without the flesh, 6592. When the internal of the church ceases, it is still in the external, but with the angels attendant on man, not in the faith and thought of man himself, 6595. They who do not believe in the inter- nals of the church cannot profane them, still less they who are ignorant of them ; hence the interiors of the church are not revealed before the church is vastated, 6595 and citations. With those who account the Word holy, and with those who receive the Lord's Supper holily, the internal and external are conjoined, though they are ignorant of it, 6789. External rites are holy when they are holily received, but not otherwise; for unless they are holily received the divine cannot flow into them, ill. 10,208; and further, as to the influx of what is holy by the internal man, 10,472. They are of the internal church whose good is qualified by interior truths ; they of the external whose good is quali- fied by external truths ; in both cases provided there be innocence in their good, 7840. They are of the internal church, who, besides ob- serving its externals, regard the life of faith, which is love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, as essential worship, 8762. With every one who is of the church there will be both the internal and external ; but those who are of the external church will be obscurely in internals, and they who are of the internal church obscurely in exter- nals, 8762. They are in internals as well as externals who are in the good of life according to the doctrinals of their churches ; but they are m externals only who are in doctrinals and not in the good of life, 8762. The same things are predicated of worship as of man who wor- ships ; thus, it is inmost or celestial, middle or spiritual, and external or natural, ill, 10,184 ; and thus, the external is in all cases the servant of the internal, 10,471. The interiors of the church, of the Word, and of worship, flow into exteriors, and rest in them, as on a plane or foun- dation, 10,567. The divine interiors of the Word, also of the church, and of worship, are divine truth proceeding from the Lord, thus the Lord in heaven, 10,579, ill, 10,604. They who are in the internal of the Word, of the church, and of worship, love to do truth for the sake of truth ; also they who are in a corresponding external, but with a difference ; they who are in the external without the internal, do it for the sake of themselves and of gain, 10,683. They who are only in the 412 INT INT 413 externals of the Word, of the church, and of worship, cannot endure the interiors, nor even the external in which they are, ill. 10,694, 10,701, 10,707. That the Jews were never in internal worship, conse- quently, that they were never chosen, but that they obstinately pressed to be a church ; also that they would have profaned internal things if they had known them ; and yet that they were capable of being kept in holy externals, without internals, 3147, 3398, 34/9, 4281, 4288, sh. 4290, 4293, 4311, 4429, 4459, 4825, 4831, 4844, 4865, 4874, 4866, 4899, 4903, 4904, 5998, 6589, 6592, 6595, 7401, 8301, 8882, 93/3, 9380, 10,396, and citations of seriatim passages, 10,460, 10,490, 10,492,10,567,10,575, 10,692, 10,694, 10,698, 10,701. That the internal with the Jews was completely closed, according to the common law of the operation of evils and falses against goods and truths, and specially, lest they should defile and profane internal goods and truths by access to the Word, 10,492. That the internal is also closed with those in the Christian world who know the truths of faith, and do not live according to them, 10,492. That the called and elect are those who are in internal worship, and in external derived therefrom, that is, who are in love and faith to the Lord, and thence in love towards the neighbour, 9373. See Church, Worship, Charity, Faith, Love. The internal church denoted by Shem, the corrupt church by Ham, and the external corresponding to the internal by Japhet, 1062, 1144 — 1 159. The charity of those who are of the internal church and the corresponding external, denoted by Shem and Japhet's covering the nakedness of their father, 10/9, 1082—1088. The influx of all good with those who worship the Lord from internals, denoted by the bless- ing of Shem, 1096. The illustration of those who are in the corres- ponding external, and their presence in internals, denoted by the enlargement of Japhet, and his dwelling in the tents of Shem, 1099 — 1102. Internal worship made external by those who have a knowledge of interior truths, denoted by Kush and Nimrod, 1175. Worship profane in interiors and holy in exteriors, denoted by Babel, &c., 1182. Reasonings concerning internal worship by those who are in external, and hence falses, denoted by Ashur, 1185 — 1192. The internal church denoted by the house of Abram, and the external by the steward (procurator) of his house, 1795, 1796. The internal of the church denoted by the seed of Abram, and only those who are iu internals the heirs of the Lord's kingdom, 1797—1804, 1810, 1817. The goods and truths of the church occupying the natural man in con- junction with internal good, denoted by the whole family of Israel gathered to Joseph in Egypt, 5967, 5994, 6168—6174, 6643. The internal no longer manifest in the church, and its preservation from the contagion of evil, denoted by the death of Joseph and his embalmment, 6587, 6593, 6596, 6645. The aversion and hatred of the posterity of Jacob to the internals of the church, denoted by the deed of Onan, 4831, 4840. The nature of the conjunction between internals and externals in the Jewish church denoted by Thamar, and Judah*s treat- ing her as a harlot, 4864—4869, 4888 — 4893, 4899, 4903 — 4906. The delight of the Israelites in external worship separate from internal, denoted by their worship of the golden calf, 9380, 9391, 10,395— 10,416. The aversion and separation of the Israelites from the inter- nals of the Word, of the church, and of worship, denoted by the wrath of Moses ; and the genuine external destroyed with them denoted by his breaking the tables on which the commandments were written, 10,460, 10,461. Hell opened with them, the influx of good and truth shut out, and the loss of spiritual life, denoted by Moses outside the camp, and the Levites passing from gate to gate slaying the people, 10,483, 10,489, 10,490, 10,492. Their defiled internals closed when they were in external worship, and the divine manifested in holy ex- ternals, denoted by Jehovah's making all his good to pass upon the faces of Moses, &c., 10,575, 10,578. Their inability to sustain the externals of the Word, of the church, and of worship, when anything of the internal was manifest therein, denoted by the people's fearing Moses when his face shone, 10,691 — 10,701. As to the representa- tion of the holy internals of the church by the ritual observances of the Jews, and the objects used in their worship, see Tent, Sacrifice, Sabbath, Representation, &c. 6. Interior evil, is the evil that lies concealed in the will and thought of man, not a vestige of it appearing in externals, that is, in his actions, his discourse, or his looks ; illustrated by the Amalekites, 8593. In- terior evil is derived from the father, exterior from the mother, 4317. Many who appear like angels in the world are mere devils, for nothing but the vilest evils appear when the interiors become manifest, 7046. Evils destroy the interiors, and hereby occasion diseases in the exteriors, 5712. By the interiors which are defiled by evil, are meant the inte- riors of the external man, not the internal man, which is in heaven, 10,429. See Evil (2). 7. Internal Goods and Truths. Goods and truths are distinguished according to degrees ; the interior'^belonging to a superior degree, the exterior to an inferior, ill. 3691. Interior goods and truths flow into exterior, and present the image of themselves in that degree, compara- tively as the interior affections of man image themselves in his face and its changes, ill. 3691, compare 3739. Interior goods and truths are so distinct from exterior that thej|can exist without them, 3691, compare 9216, 9828. They who are in external truths only, are weak and tottering, and are carried away, so to speak, by every wind that blows, but they who are at the same time in internal truth are firm, ill. 3820. Afiections of good and truth are internal bonds, for they are the bonds of conscience corresponding to external bonds or affections, 3835. In- ternal truths cannot at first be conjoined to those who are in the affec- tion of internal truth, notwithstanding they may know them, for there are worldly and corporeal affections which obstruct, 3834, 3843, 3905, 3911. Internal truths cannot at first be received, but are expressed in external forms ; when received, those forms are dissipated, and serve as objects or means only for thinking of internals, 3857. All good flows in from the Lord by the internal man, and it adopts to itself the truths which are insinuated into the memory by the sensual things of the external, 3911; see below, 6564. Good cannot be fructified nor truth multiplied, before the external man is conjoined with the internal, ill, 3987, compare 4099. When good flows in by the internal way, or by the internal rational, the ideas of the natural man, formed from fallacies of the senses, and illusions thence derived, cannot sustain its approach; hence anxiety and temptation, ill. 4341. Interior rational ?'/l 414 INT truths conjoined with good make the celestial man ; interior natural, the spiritual, ill. 4402, compare 1999; what is meant by the internal rational, and the internal natural, 4570, and more particularly by the latter, 5118, 5497, 5649, 7601 ; see below, 4748, 5119. Progression towards interiors is not the progress of man in sciences and knowledges, but it is a progression towards heaven and the Lord by the affections in which knowledges are implanted ; such progress is quite manifest in the other life, where it appears like going from a mist into light, 4598. Interior natural truths are the conclusions formed from exterior truths or scientifics ; their conjunction with good illustrated, 4748 ; see below, 5649, 7910. The interiors of scientifics are their approaches and applications to spiritual and celestial things, for these are what the internal man sees, 4965 ; see below 5344, 5637. It is by the influx of the rational mind that interior natural truths are elevated from scien- tifics of which they are the extracts or conclusions ; for exteriors cannot flow into interiors, 5119. The interiors of the interior natural are what are called spiritual, for they are from the light of heaven, and they illuminate those things which are from the light of the world, which are properly called natural, 5344. External truths or scientifics thus illuminated are called the interiors of scientifics, 5637. Internal truths when they are regarded by those who are in external truths, without conjunction by a medium, thus without correspondence, appear strange and hard like opposites, 5422, 5423, 5511 ; see above (3), 1914, 5427. Truths that appear like conclusions from scientifics, and thus to be of man's proprium, are really given him by the Lord in virtue of influx through the internal man, 5649, 5737. See Gratis. There are abundantly more goods and truths in interiors than in exteriors, for thousands of things in a purer sphere appear as one only in a grosser, 5707. Perception is clearer according as it is more interior, because it is from the more immediate influx of good, br. ill. 5920. The truths of the natural man are for the service of spiritual good, and exteriors generally are formed for the service of interiors, 5947, compare 5127, 5128. When spiritual good flows in, it •ccupies the midst, and natural goods and truths fall into order round about it, ilL 645 1 . The Lord continually flows in by the internal man with good and truth ; good gives the life and its heat, which is love; truth gives illustration and its light, which is faith, 6564. The influx of good and truth from the Lord is resisted and rejected by the evil when it passes to the natural man, and by such rejection the interiors are closed ; how the closure extends, according to the life of evil, even to the sensual faculty, 6564. External truth cannot be conjoined with good unless it is from internal truth ; but when man is in good, external and internal truth are con- joined with him, though he is ignorant of it, 6789. The truths and goods of faith with those who belong to the church and are saved, are spiritual, for they flow-in from the Lord by heaven, because their inte- riors are open to heaven, ill. 7506. The truth and good pertaining to the exterior natural man are destroyed and vastated with the evil, but the truths and goods of the interior natural are indrawn and reserved for use, 7601 ; if the former were not vastated and the communication with the interiors closed, the latter would perish, for they would be drawn into conjunction with them, 7604 ; see below, 8870. If interior goods and truths flow into the external man while he is occupied with INT 415 evils and falses, they are perverted, and the interiors also are darkened, 7645. Internal good pertains to those who are called men of the internal church, whose good is qualified by interior truths ; but external good to men of the external church whose good is qualified by external truths, 7840. No good whatever is good unless there be innocence in it, hence innocence is interior or exterior according as it vivifies internal or external good, 7840, particularly 10,134 and citations. Good is in the interiors, and truth in the exterior; hence the appropriation of truth, or its conjunction with good is in interiors, ill. 7910 ; see above, 4598, 4748, 4965, 5119. Truths that are from the Lord are truths in internal form, insomuch that the Lord is in them, thus they are open from externals to internals, and even to the Lord himself, ill. from experi- ence, 8868, further ill. 8870. In the other life all are remitted into their internals, and if these are evil, external goods are taken away from them lest they should seduce others, 88/0 end. They who are in ex- ternal truths, but not yet initiated into internal, believe that they ought always to relieve the indigent, &c. ; how these external goods are the means of initiation into internal, which consist in good done to the internal man, 9209. The good of love is the internal of all mutual love and charity, and the good of charity is the internal of the good of faith, ill. 9473. Internal good, which is in the good of mutual love, is the good of love to the Lord, which is also the good of innocence, or the internal of the celestial, 9473 ; how all good, really to be such, must have interior good in it, 9912 and citations; and how external and internal good are as the external and internal of man, and as the ex- ternal and internal of heaven, 9993. All are in the sphere of divine good, but it is not received by the evil in consequence of the closing of their interiors, ill. 10,188. All external sensations are from internal, which are of the understanding and will, thus from the truths of faith, and the good of love, ill. 10,199. It is by interior truths, which are of the good of love and charity, that the internal man is opened and brought into communication with heaven, 10,199. Interior truths are those which are of the life and affeotions, not those which are only in the memory; interior truths in the memory are only exterior, 10,199 ; see below (8). It is by divine truth, or the internal sense of the Word, that man is illustrated and elevated to internals, 10,400. The goods of love and the truths of faith which are taught by the internal of the Word make the internal church and internal worship, 10,460. The affection of external truth denoted by Leah, the affection of internal truth by Rachel, 3758, 3782, 3793, 3819, 3849, 3907, 4586, 4593. The love of good for internal truth, and the study of the mind to acquire it, denoted by Jacob's love for Rachel, and his serving seven years for her, 3822—3827, 3846. The affection of interior truth not possible to be conjoined before the exterior, denoted by Rachel the younger not to be espoused before Leah the elder, 3843. Interior truths not received before the exterior are produced, denoted by Rachel's barrenness and the conception of children by Leah, 3857. The ascent from external truth to internal good before interior truths are received, denoted by the four sons first born of Leah, 3758, 3860, 3866, 3868, 3872, 3874, 3877, 3879—3881. The conjunction of the good of the natural man with truth, preparatory to the conjunction of the internal and external man, denoted by the sons afterwards born of Leah and 416 INT INT 417 the handmaids, 3969. The conjunction of good exterior and interior, by means of the aflFection of truth, and the heavenly marriage, denoted by the sons born of Rachel, 3969, 4586—4594. Interior natural truths with those who are in simple good, denoted by the aromatics, &c., carried by the Ishmaelites into Egypt, 4749. The internal truth of the church rejected by those within the church who are in falses, denoted by the sale of Joseph to the Ishmaelites, 4/24, 4727, 4750, 4758. The reception of internal or divine truth by the natural man in the interiors of scientifics, denoted by his being sold to Potiphar, the chamberlain of Pharaoh, 4789, 4790, 4962, 4965—4967. The extraction and elevation of truths, in the interiors of the natural mind, denoted by the butler of Pharoah squeezing the grapes into his cup, and putting the cup into his hand, 5119, 5120. Truths adjoined to good secreted in the interiors of the natural mind before the com- mencement of temptations, denoted by the corn gathered and stored up in the cities of Egypt, 5342, 5344. The goods and truths of the church occupying the natural man, and their conjunction with the celestial interiaal, denoted by the whole family of Israel gathered to Joseph in Egypt, 5994, 6168—6174, 6643. Natural good made spiritual in the interiors of the mind, and goods and truths in order round about it, denoted by Israel gathered to his people, 6451, 6463, 6465. Interior good and truth not destroyed when the exterior are vastated, denoted by the wheat and the rye not smitten in Egypt, 7605 — 7607. The interior good of innocence appropriated when man is delivered from his evils, denoted by the paschal lamb to be eaten ; the exterior by a kid, 7840. Truth appropriated in the interiors, where there is good, denoted bv the unleavened bread to be eaten in the habita- tions of the Israelites, 7902, 7906, 7910. Truths not from the divine, but only resembling internal truths in externals, to be rejected as the work of the proprium, denoted by the commandment not to make any graven image, 8868—8873. Interior truths, which are the truths of internal good, denoted by the aromatics for the anointing oil and for the incense, 9474, 9475, 10,251—10,267, 10,291 — 10,308. The imita- tion of good and truth from the divine by those who live in evils, and the imitation of divine worship from the proprium, resulting in spiritual death, denoted by the punishment of those who should make any oil or perfume resembling these, 10,286, 10,309. As to good and truth reserved in the interiors by the Lord, and signified by remains, 4759 and citations, 5344, 7601. See Remains. 8. The Interior Memory and Interior Thought, See above (3), 978, 1806, 1914, 3020, 3679, 4104, 5036, 6844, 6845, 9128, 9723, 10,134, 10,199; (7), 4748, 4965, 5119, 5649. Scientifics, which are in natural light, are in the exterior memory; but truths, which are in spiritual light, in the interior, 5212, 9922. The ideas of the interior memory flow into the ideas of the exterior ; hence, how superior the interior memory is, 2473. It is from the interior memory that man is able to think and speak intellectually and rationally, ill, 9394. Spirits and angels speak from the interior memory, hence they speak by a universal tongue, which is known to all, from whatsoever earth they are, when they come into the spirit, 2472, 2476, 2490, 2493. Only they who think interiorly, thus abstractly from space and time, can understand the author's progression in the spirit to the inhabitants of other planets. 9.o81. When man thinks interiorly, he is led away from sensual things and mto a milder light ; and that this elevation from things of sense was known to the ancients, 6201, 6313, 6315. He who only thinks from the memory of things known in the world, and cannot be elevated to mteriors, is a sensual man, 10,236. The inhabitants of this earth are external sensual men ; how they infest and combat those who are internal spiritual, from experience, 4330. The interiors of the inha- bitants of Jupiter are open to the Lord, 8114. See Idea, Memory, Thought. The state of those who care nothing about internal things • from experience, 4946. ° ' 9. The Internal of the Word, The quality of the internal sense of the Word illustrated by an example, 1873. The Word in its internal sense treats of nothing but love to the Lord and love to the neighbour; hence the internal sense is always denied by those who are not in cha- ri^, ill. 3427; compare 4459. The internal sense of the Word coin- cides with the thought of the internal man, which is the same with the thoughts of spirits and angels, ill. 4104; ill. 10,604. The internal sense of the Word is the means of conjoining angelic and human minds, and this in so strict a bond, that they act as one, ill. 9216; ill. 10,604. Angels and men are conjoined when the Word is read, by holy influx in consequence of the internal sense being perceived by the former, 10,687, 10,689. The internal man is actually in the internal sense of the Word, but he who judges according to the knowledges of the external cannot be illustrated, ill. 10,400. They who avert themselves from the inter- nal of the Word also avert themselves from the internal of the church and of worship, for these are from the internal of the Word, 10,460. The internals of the Word, of the church, and of worship are all of the internal man, for they all consist in love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, 10,483. Those are in illustration when they read the Word in whom the internal man is opened, for they see from the light of heaven flowing-in and illustrating them, 10,551. The' divine interiors of the Word are divine truth proceeding from the Lord, 10,579; and divine truth proceeding from the Lord is the light of heaven, 1053, 1521, 3195, 3323, 3341, 3636, 3643, 4415, 5400, 8644, 9399, 9548, 9684, 10,691, 10,703, 10,809. The Divine interiors of the Word are signified by the writing upon the tables of stone ; the external sense of the Word, by the tables only that were written upon, 10,453, 10,461, 10,604. The internal sense of the Word continually shines and coruscates in the external, but it is only perceived by those who are in internals, ill. 10,691. Though the light of the internal sense is not perceived by those who are in externals, it is present with them and afi'ects them if they are not disjoined from internals ; in the latter case, the light of the internal sense cannot be sustained, 10,691. See Word. 10. Of the Internal in Heaven, ^c. There are three distinct heavens, called the inmost or third, the middle or second, and the ultimate or first, 459, 684, 9594, 9741, 10,270. In each heaven there are those who are celestial or internal, and those who are spiritual or external, t7^. 4286, 9741. The internal of the inmost heaven, or the Lord's celestial kingdom, is love to the Lord ; the external, charity to the neighbour, 5922. The internal of the spiritual kingdom is the love of the neighbour; the external, faith derived therefrom, 5922; E E 418 INT ^.» both ill 9993. All in heaven are more and more interior accordmg to the quality and quantity of good in which they are, 4482. In the more interior heaven there is no idea of what is interior and exterior but of what is more or less perfect, 5146. AH perfection increases towards interiors; hence the interior heavens are in love and wisdom beyond the exterior; in each heaven also, the more perfect occupy the midst, 9666. In the interior heaven are they who regard truth from good; in the exterior, they who regard good from truth, 7601 end. The interior heavens repose in the exterior, thus one heaven is the receptacle of another; and the universal heaven closes and rests in human minds, 4618, 9216. The procedure of good m heaven is from inmost to extremes, and the same order is that of influx ; according to this order, the external of the celestial kingdom, which is the good ot mutual love, is the internal of the spiritual, 9912. Each kmgdom of heaven, the celestial and spiritual, has an internal and external, as each part of man, the voluntary and intellectual, ,lias an internal and external, ill. 9993. Each kingdom of heaven is also divided into three heavens, inmost, middle, and external, 9993. Every angel of heaven has his internal and external as well as man, and he is in the former when in a state of love and light ; in the latter, when he comes into obscurity, ill. 10,134. The internal man is in the image of heaven, and in the internal sense of the Word ; when the internal is opened, therefore, man and the angels are together, and when he reads the Word, heaven flows in and illustrates him, 10,400. It is the same thine whether it be said the internal or heaven, for heaven is in all things predicated of the internal man, 10,483. The man of the church is a heaven in the least form, for his interiors are disposed according to the image of heaven in the greatest, and hence to its reception, 911, 978, 1900, 1928, 3624-3631, 3634, 3637, 3884, 4041, 42/9, 4523, 4524, 4625, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9594, 9632; see above (3), 1733, &c. Every one has communication with the interior and inmost heaven, whereby he is directed to ends and uses, 1399. Elevation to mternals, and thus introduction into heaven, is denoted by the entrance of the sons of Israel into Canaan, 7051, 7860, 7932, 8325, 8539, 9294, 9305, 10,400 and citations, 10,568; and a new church internal and external, by a new heaven and a new earth, 4535. See Heaven. INTERNUNCIO [internuncius]. See Messenger. INTERPRETATION. The interpretation of a dream denotes what is in it, what it foreshows, and hence the event itself, 5093, 5105, 5107 5121,5151,5168; thus, what is contingent, or shall come to pass,' 5141, 5225; and this from foresight, 5235. To interpret is to explain what is in a thing, consequently what can come out of it ; hence it is to predict, 5168. The Word is such that they who are not in good can draw falses from it by sinister interpretations, 3436. They interpret the Word to favour their cupidities whose ideas are closed against the internal sense, 6620. The procedure of those who confirm falses by sinister interpretations illustrated by the brethren ot Joseph and his coat of many colours, 4768, 4769. Their false inter- pretations from the Word applied as a sedative signified by their con- soHng Jacob for the loss of Joseph, 4783. Divine truth alienated by resort to false principles of interpretation signified by Joseph sold into Egypt, 4790. 4966 ; compare 5084 end. Spiritual things altogether INT 419 1/ otherwise apprehended by those who are in natural light than by those who are in spiritual, signified by an interpreter between Joseph and his brethren, 5478. Spiritual truth restored by a just interpretation of scientific truth or the letter of the Word, signified by the law con- cerning injuries (Exod. xxi. 18, 19), 9031—9033. Generally, that the Word is falsely interpreted by those who are in externals, and that the genuine doctrine and sense of the Word is the internal sense, 10,400, 10,402, 10,406, 10,570; and that truths cannot be conjoined to evils unless they are falsified, which is done by sinister interpreta- tions, 8149; i7/. and passages cited, 9298. INTERROGATION. The Lord is often represented asking ques- tions of man and receiving replies, although he knows all things ; it is so done for the sake of acknowledgment and confession on the part of man, and in accordance with his belief that his thoughts are secret, 226, 1931, 2693, 5800. Interrogations only occur in the external sense, and in the internal sense perceptions, hence an interrogation de- notes thought or knowledge from perception, 2693, 4358, 5597, 5800, 6132, 6250, 8081. To interrogate is to search into truth, 3385. To interrogate is to perceive the thought of another, because there is no need to ask questions in heaven, but all thought is communicated and perceived, 5597, ^^77 , 5800. Communication is denoted by a prayer, and the state of communication by an interrogation, 329 1 . See to Say. INTERSTICE. The worid of spirits so called, because situated between heaven and hell, 5852. INTESTINES. The vexation of food in the stomach and intes- tines represents the vexations and purifications of spirits in order that their evils may be separated and their goods reduced to use, 5174. The successive states of the spirit when it passes into the other life are similar to those through which the food passes, and it does not come into the Grand Man until it is representatively in the blood, 5175, 5176. Those spirits which cannot be introduced into the Grand Man pass on to the rectum, where the first hell is, and become excrements, 5175. They are in the region of the stomach and intestines who are in the lower earth, from which some are elevated to heaven, and others cast out into hell, 5392. They who constitute the colon are such as de- light in spoiling and illtreating others, for example, soldiers and their commanders who have delighted in slaughter and rapine after their victories, 5393. They who are in the colon infest the spirits who constitute the province of the peritonaeum ; how their action was re- presented to the author, 5379. See Excrement. The intestines denote last and lowest things, such as sensual delights, the purification of which was denoted by washing the intestines in the sacrifices ; their correspondence illustrated in connection with the other parts of the human body, 7859, 10,030, 10,049. See Viscera, Bowels. INTRACTION, or Indrawing, the, of truths after the natural memory has been filled with them, is to cause their separation from the impure loves which served for their introduction, but they are after- wards produced and conjoined with goods, 5270, 5376, compare 5893. The good of infancy is drawn into the interiors, and there preserved by the Lord to be produced afterwards, as the means of tempering the states of life induced in adult age, 3793. See Regeneration. INTRODUCTION, into a house, denotes introduction into good, e E 2 > , (l / 420 INT I RR 421 \ and they who are introduced into good are introduced into heaven, thus, to the Lord, 2379; see below, 5645. Man is introduced into truth and good by affections, consequently in freedom, and every one according to his native and acquired genius, 2878. Even evd affections serve to excite the affection of truth, whereby at length roan is intro- duced into good, 3330, ill. 5270. Truths not genuine also serve tor the introduction of genuine truths, and are afterwards separated, tlL 3470, compare 4 1 45. When the truths of faith are introduced by evil loves man cannot be regenerated until those loves are '^7^^^ from them. 5280. See Intraction. The first introduction into good ot a celestial origin is signified by the brethren «<• J^f P^.^f ^^^^^^^^^^ ^ his house before he was manifested to them, 5645, 5653. Truth is only a means of introduction to good, and it introduces to good by passing into will and act, 5826. When the truths of <^^th are intro- duced by some genuine affection they remain conjoined with it, and the one is always reproduced with the other, 5893. They who are introduced into good by truth do not come into the perception of good before they are regenerated, because good flows from the intenors into the affection of truth, 6256. After regeneration man is introduced into heaven, or the celestial paradise, 63. Man is actually introduced among angels as he overcomes in temptation ^^l^^^*^' j? ^ ^ * /.^^ elevadon of man into heaven is denoted by the introduction of the Israelites into Canaan, variously ilL 7051. 7860. 7932. 8325. 8539. 9294. 9305. 10.400. 10,568. Spirits are prepared for heaven by various methods of purification, and afterwards by introduction into evres, whereby they are accommodated one to another, and brought into unanimity, 5182. How the Lord, when he was m the world, introduced himself into successive states by communication with socie- ties of spirits and angels, and how he changed them by his own power when they had served for introduction, 4075. .• r *u INTROMISSION, into heaven, consists in the reception ot the spirit into the society of angels, ill. 2130, 2131. See Heaven (3). INTUITION, is called influx, because all vision is from interior sight flowing-in and finally from the Lord, who alone really sees, ill. 1954. They who have no interior intuition come into doubts and denials when they judge from scientifics concerning the things ot taith; but they who have interior intuition see confirmations in scientifics, it no otherwise, still by correspondences, ill. 4760. They have no inte- rior intuition who are not in the affection of charity, ill. 4/8^. it is only by good that the Lord can flow in and give intelligence and wisdom, for it is only from good that superior intuition is derived, and also the perception whether a thing be true or not, t//. 4925 Superior intui- tion, which gives the perception whether a thmg be true or not. is from the influx of ideas, ill. from expenence, 4946. They whose thoughts are immersed in worldly things, or hmited and imprisoned m the terminations and distinctions derived from such things, are not receptive of heavenly ideas, for they cannot be held m superior intui- tion ; its manner briefly described, 5089 ; see below 6598. The arrangement of all things in the memory, and in the thought of the mind, is from good flowing in, which keeps the subject thought of immediately under the view or intuition, amd those which are in affinity with it, in order round about, &c., 5278 ; see below, 6068. Superior intuition is the view of universal truths, and not of truths brought down to expressions and things according to natural ideas, and neces- sarily limited by them, ill. 5287. All arrangement in the natural mind is from the influx of good and truth, which proceeds by heaven from the Lord ; hence is all intuition, analytical thought, and judgment, &c., 5288, compare 6564 ; and see below, 6598. The faculty of thinking and speaking is according to the number of spirits of which one is the subject, thus, whose various intuition falls into one concord, 5987. Those things which are immediately under the intuition or view of man in the natural mind constitute the midst, and are in clear light ; other things verge off into obscurity towards the sides, 6068. They who think above sensual things, providing the things of their memory are arranged, surpass others in the faculty of understanding and perceiving, and this according to the degree of intuition from the interiors, 6598. It is only by internal intuition that the Lord can be seen as present with man, and if he appear in external form to any one, the interiors are still affected, ill. 6849. The truths of the literal sense of the Word, contained in the external memory, form as it were a field for internal intuition, which is effected by light from heaven, 9035, ill. 905 1 . The rejection of faith, though it may not be accord- ing to internal truth, by those who are not illustrated, thus without full intuition, is destructive of spiritual life, ill. 9039. The spiritual do not perceive anything of divine truth in the rational mind, and hence they are willing that the things of faith should be received with- out rational intuition ; not so the celestial, 3394. Things in the memory are mere scientifics until they come under one's own rational intuition, 5432. Intuition and the affection excited thereby is the means of conjoining goods and truths, 4018. As to the intuitive sphere of self, 1506, and self-regard, or self-intuition, generally, 7640 — 7643, 9210 9405. INUNDATION. See Immersion, Flood. INVENTOR [excogitator]. See Contriver. INVERSION. The state of man before regeneration is completely inverse to his state afterwards ; for in the former he acts from truth, in the latter from good, ill. 3539. The secret animus and endeavour of good with man is to invert his state, and make truth subordinate to good; but this is not perceived by man until it is done, ill. 3610. They who become regenerate are in good from truth before regenera- tion, and in good from which truth is derived afterwards, thus the latter state is the inverse of" the former, 3669 and citations, 3688, 4242, 4243, 4245, 4256. See Good (21). When the state of man comes to be inverted, so that good assumes the first place, he is brought into temptations, 4248, 4256. 4274. 4275. 5773. See Esau, Jacob, Good (20), Regeneration. INVESTITURE, the, and girding of the body, denotes a state prepared to receive and to act, for then all and everything is held in order, 7863. See Girdle.

IRON [ferrum]^ denotes natural truth, 425, 426, compare 643. Silver for iron, denotes spiritual truth for natural, 425. A land whose stones are iron, denotes natural or rational truth grounded in sensual truths, 425. Iron and brass from the north, denotes natural good and truth coming to light from the mind lying in darkness, 426. An iron wall between the prophet and the city, denotes the truth of faith« 426. Dan and Javan in thy fairs with bright iron, denotes natural truth among the acquisitions of truth and good, 3923. Stones fashioned by an iron or tool denote fictitious truths, because from the proprium, 1298, 8942, 9011. The feet of the statue part of iron and part of clay, denotes natural truth and natural good, 2162. The legs of iron and the feet partly of iron, denotes the truth of faith in the external or natural man ; the signification of the statue fully explained, 10,030 and citations, 10,050; more particularly as to the representation of these iron times, 10,355. ISAAC. 1 . Signification, Abraham represents celestial love ; Isaac, spiritual love ; Jacob, natural, 1025. Abraham represents the Lord, and also the celestial man ; Isaac represents the Lord and also the spiritual man ; Jacob represents the Lord and also the natural man, 1409. Abraham represents the internal man, Ishmael and Isaac, the rational man ; Ishmael, the human rational first conceived of the afifection of sciences; Isaac, the divine rational, 1890, 1893, 1899, 1950, 2066, 2083; the manner of its becoming divine by purification, ill, 2632. Abraham represents the Lord's internal man, or, what is the same, his divine celestial and spiritual principle ; Isaac, the Lord*s interior man, or his divine rational ; Jacob, the Lord's exterior man, or the divine natural, 1950, 2083, 2630; as to the two former only, 2010. Isaac represents the rational man after all human infirmity had been expelled, when it was vivified by divine good, 1950; conse- quently, the divine marriage of good with truth, and of truth with good, in the divine human, 2774. Isaac begotten by Abraham, re- presents the divine itself become rational, Esau and Jacob begotten by Isaac, good and truth in the natural therefrom, 2772, 3278 — 3280. Isaac, named from laughter, signifies the affection of truth in which the affection of good is latent ; for the affection of good with the ra- tional man is expressed by a kind of gladness in the countenance ; but the affection of truth by laughter, in which there is generally some- thing not so good, 2072, 2083, 2638—2644, 2658. Ishmael represented the rational man conceived from the divine conjoined to the human ; Isaac, the rational made divine ; for the Lord made the whole human divine, even to the body, 2083. The first or human rational denoted by Ishmael, is conceived by the influx of the internal man into the affec- tion of sciences ; the rational denoted by Isaac, is the offspring of the heavenly marriage of good and truth in the internal man, 2093. The first rational is common to all men before regeneration ; the rational denoted by Isaac, is received from the Lord when man is regenerated, when he comes to the perception of the good and truth of faith, 2093. Isaac (in the supreme sense) denotes the divine rational, which is the same as the divine human, for the human begins with the inmost of the rational, and extends itself to the external of man, 2106, 2194, I '>fifi6 3704 4108.4180,4576. There is nothing in comnrion either a's to'good or as ?o\uth between the divine ™tional jified by Isaac and the merely human rational, signified by Ishmael, 2658. Isaac Represents the divine rational as to truth, before the ^-^e^^^f'"" f truth is assumed by Rebecca, and afterwards as to good, ^01^./>"'f' 3024. 3072. ill. 3141, 3194, 3210, 33C5 4614. Good and truth both from the in ernal man are conjoined in the represents ion of good by Isaac, and truth from the natural initiated into rational good • repre- sented bv Rebecca, 3141. Isaac denotes the rational mind as to good, which is'of th" will ; Rebecca, as to truth which is of the understanding, 3509. 4641; the servants of Isaac, rational and .^^'^f 'fi to stay with him to acquire a flock of his own, denotes the good of truth fructified when man is led by it, and common good put to use serving the good of truth, 3990, 3991. His removing all the speckled and spotted among the cattle, &c., and all the black among the lambs, denotes the separation of goods and the truths of good in which evils and falses are mixed, and also the proprium of innocence, 3991 — 4001, 4005—4010, compare 4026. The artifice of Jacob by which similar cattle were produced, which he separated from the flock of Laban, denotes the disposition of the mind when good can flow into the afl'ec- tions, &c., and the increase of interior goods and truths elevated from exterior, 4013—4038, briefly 3903. Observe here that Jacob is not to be regarded as a purchased servant, but that he belonged to a more illustrious family than Laban, 3974,4113. 7. The separation of Jacob from Laban, denotes the state of the natural man when he draws nearer to the Divine ; or the separation of good with the natural man, the aff'ections of truth adjoined thereto, and all the goods and truths acquired by their conjunction, from com- mon good, 4061, 4069, 4073, 4103; thus, from everything worldly, terrestrial, and corporeal as an end, 4063. Jacob's observing the faces of Laban changed towards him, denotes the change of the interiors when man is advancing to interior good, and that such changes are according to the separation of spirits and angels from him, 4066, 4067, 4073, 4074, 4129. Jacob's conversation with Rachel and Leah on the subject, denotes the adjunction of good to truths and the reciprocal application of truths to good, when separation is about to take place, 4073, 4096 ; how the states of separation also succeed each other, 4097, 4122. Jacob's arising, and setting his sons and his wives upon camels, and fleeing away with all his acquisitions towards Canaan, to his father Isaac, denotes the elevation of good and the elevation of truths and their afi'ections in order to conjunction with the rational, 4102 — 4108; and that the conjunction of the natural with the rational forms the human, 4108. Laban's pursuit of Jacob, and the circum- stances attending it, denotes the state of separation as viewed from the proprium, its unwillingness to relinquish divine good and the affections of truth, &c., as its own, 4122, 4132 — 4144, i7/. 4145, 4151, 4162, 4166, 4184—4187. Jacob's covenant with Laban denotes the con- junction of ihe Lord by the good of the divine natural with those who are m good not yet qualified by truths, thus, with the gentiles, 4195. 8. Jacob's arrival in Canaan. Jacob's going on his way after part- ing with Laban, denotes the state of natural truth proceeding to con- junction with celestial and spiritual good, 4234. The angels of God meeting him, denotes illustration by the influx of the divine into the natural, 4235. His sending messengers before him to his brother Esau, and their announcement that Esau was coming, denotes the first communication with celestial good, and that good is always flowing into truth, 4239—4241, ill. 4247. The fear of Jacob on hearing that Esau was approaching and four hundred men with him, denotes the temptations consequent on good assuming the first place, 4248, 4249, 4341. The arrangement of his flock and his servants before the com- mg of Esau, denotes the preparation and disposition of natural goods and truths to receive the influx of divine good, 4246, 4250. His crossing Jabbok, the river or ford at the boundary of Canaan, in this JAC 435 I order, denotes the first insinuation of truth into good, 4270, 4271, 4301. A man wrestling with him till day-dawn, denotes temptation as to truth preceding conjunction, 4274. His being called Israel, de- notes the conjunction of celestial-spiritual good, 4277, 4282; or the celestial spiritual man in the natural, 4286 ; thus, the internal natural, 4570. His meeting and reconciliation with Esau, denotes the conjunc- tion of divine good flowing in by the internal man with the good of truth insinuated by the external, 4336, 4337 ; and the passages cited in continuation, Esau (3). His coming to Shalem, the city of Sheckhem, in the land of Canaan, denotes the tranquillity of peace in interior truths when in the Lord's kingdom, 4393—4394. His encamping before the city and buying a portion of a field there, denotes application to the goods of interior truth, and the appropriation of good, 4396, 4397. His building an altar there, which he called El-EIohe-Israel, denotes interior worship, 4401, 4402. As to what followed between the sons of Jacob and the Sheckhemites, see below (11). 9. Jacob's return to his father, sojourning by the way at Bethel, denotes the further elevation or progress of the natural towards the divine, 4536, 4539. His removing the strange gods from his house, and burying them under an oak near Sheckhem, denotes the eternal rejection of falses, 4544, 4550, 4552. The terror of God upon the cities as they journeyed, denotes protection from falses and evils by the impossibility of their approaching goods and truths, 4555. The nurse of Rebecca dying and her burial under an oak, denotes the per- petual rejection of hereditary evil, 4563, 4564. The appearance of God to Jacob, and his speaking to him, denotes interior natural per- ception, and perception from the Divine, 4567 — 4571. The change of his name to Israel confirmed, denotes the state of the natural man no longer external but internal, 4570. The fruitfulness promised to Jacob, and kings to go out from his loins, denotes good formed by truths, and truth proceeding from the heavenly marriage, thus from the divine human, 4573—4575. The land that was given to Abraham and to Isaac to be his, denotes the appropriation of divine good from the divine itself, and the divine rational to the divine natural, 4576. The land to be for his seed after him, denotes the appropriation of divine truth, 4577. His setting up a pillar of stone in the place where God had spoken with him, denotes truth in ultimates received as holy in this state, 4579—4582. His journeying from Bethel towards Ephrath, (afterwards Bethlehem) denotes the procedure of the spiritual state when approaching the rational, 4585. The birth of Benjamin there and the death of Rachel, denotes spiritual truth now proceeding from celestial good, thus the affection of truth resuscitated in a new state, 4592 — 4594. Jacob (now called Israel) spreading his tent from beyond the tower of Eder, denotes progression more hito interiors, 4599. His hearing of the outrage committed by Reuben here, denotes the abhor- rence of faith separate from Ufe, by which good is profaned, 4601. His sons named in this connection, denote goods and truths in their order, 4601 end, 4603—4610. His coming to Isaac his father, denotes the divine natural now conjoined with the divine rational, 4610 end, 4612 — 4615. The death of Isaac and his being gathered to his people, denotes the life of the divine rational translated to the divine natural, F F 2 A 436 J AC 4618, 4619. His burial by Esau and Jacob, denotes its resuscitation in good and in the good of natural truth, 4621. 10. In the internal historical sense, the spiritual sense contained in the history of Jacob is determined and applied to his posterity, 1246, 4279, 4310, 4281 ; thus to the external perverse church of the Jews, 259, 422, 768. His name signifying the heel, by which is meant the lowest natural or corporeal part of man, denotes the state of the Jewish church destroyed by the loves of self and the world, 259. His taking the birthright and blessing from Esau, involves that his posterity suc- ceeded to the promise concerning the land of Canaan, and that they represented celestial and spiritual things, but fraudulently, 3659, 3660. His having Leah to wife before Rachel, denotes the Jewish church with his posterity only in externals ; and his having Rachel afterwards, the internal church which was the new church with the Gentiles, suc- ceeding to it, 422. The hurt done to his thigh, signifies that there was no conjunction of conjugial love with natural good in his posterity; thus, that celestial and spiritual love could not be conjoined with natural good in them, 4280, 4281. His name changed from Jacob to Israel, and the reason given by the angel with whom he had wrestled, denotes that they could not represent celestial and spiritual things without a new quality given them, because of their lusts and phantasies, 4282, 4291— -4294. Jacob's refusing to let the angel go until he blessed him, denotes their urgency to be elected to the representation, 4290. His calling the name of the place Peniel, denotes the represen- tation assumed by his posterity, and the Lord representatively present, not really, as with the regenerate, 4310 — 4312. His halting upon his thigh, in consequence of the hurt done to it, as he entered Canaan, denotes that goods and truths utterly perished with them when they entered upon representatives, 4312 — 4314. The memorial preserved of it to this day, denotes that hereditary evil could not be eradicated by regeneration, 4317. Observe here, that instead of angels in this narrative, are to be understood the evil spirits to whom the posterity of Jacob succumbed, 4294, 4307, 4308 ; and that he with whom Jacob wrestled called himself a god, because Jacob believed him to be such, 4307. The posterity of Jacob also, were of such a quality, that they were surrounded with evil spirits,' and were far from worshiping Jeho- vah in heart, 4311 ; their state represented by the deed of Onan, 4831, 4840 ; by Thamar treated as a harlot, 4864 — 4869, 4888—4893, 4899, 4903—4906; by the worship of the golden calf, 9380, 9391, 10,395 — 10,416 ; by Moses breaking the tables on which the command- ments were written, 10,460, 10,461 ; by the representation of hell in their camp, 10,483, 10,489, 10,490, 10,492; and by a horse throwing his rider, and kicking, &c., 6212. See also what follows concerning the Sheckhemites. 1 1 . The sons of Jacob and the Sheckhemites. By the sons of Jacob is meant all their posterity, for his sons themselves were not a church, 4430. Jacob's arrival at Sheckhem, and what occurred there, shows how the first perception of light or interior truth was extin- guished with his posterity, 4430, particularly 4433, 4500. Jacob himself in this case denotes the ancient external church, for he was in the worship instituted by Eber, 4433, 4439, 4514, 4520; see below (12). Hamor and Sheckhem together with the people of their city, JAC 437 represented the truth of the ancient church, 4425, 4431. The family of Sheckhem were a remnant of the most ancient church, 4447, 4454, 4493 ; hence, Sheckhem denotes truth, and Hamor, his father, good, both derived from antiquity, 4431, 4447. The truth denoted by Sheck- hem, was the internal truth of the statutes, judgments, and laws of the ancient church, and this truth was the doctrine of charity, 4433. The descendants of Jacob were incapable of receiving the internal goods and truths in which the ancient church was principled ; hence, nothing but the representative of a church could be instituted with them, 4433. Sheckhem's lying with Dinah without being espoused to her, denotes that there was no real conjunction between internals and externals with them, 4433. His desiring her to wife, denotes the tendency and desire of the internal to be conjoined with the new church of the Jews, which appeared externally like the ancient, 4433, 4434 — 4439. The sons of Jacob in the field at this time, and their wrath against Sheckhem, de- notes his posterity in their religion, and their evil disposition towards the truth of the ancient church, 4440, 4444, 4459. The conditions made by them and their evil intention towards the Sheckhemites, denotes the opposition of those who are in externals only to internals, and the truth and good of the church put in representatives, 4459, 4462. The prince of Sheckhem consenting to be circumcised, together with all the men of the city, denotes initiation into representatives and significatives, thus, a departure from the truth and accession to external things, 4465, 4469, 4486. Simeon and Levi's putting them to the sword, denotes the extinction of all faith and charity with the posterity of Jacob by what was evil and false, 4497 — 4501. The sons of Jacob then spoiling the city, and taking their flocks and herds, and their asses, and whatever was in the city, and all their wealth, and all their infants, aTid their women, as a prey, denotes the total destruction of doctrine, the perver- sion of all good and truth, and of all innocence, and of every good affection, 4503 — 4512. Jacob's complaint to Simeon and Levi, and his fear that he and his house would be destroyed, denotes the end of the ancient church hereby, 4513 — 4522. See Sheckhem. 12. Jacob in his old age, when the representation of divine truth by Joseph commences, denotes the good of the ancient church, 4674, 4670, 4680, compared. The brethren of Joseph in this representa- tion denote the church which declines from charity to faith, afterwards to faith alone, and at length to falses ; consequently the posterity of Jacob with whom such was the case, 4666, 4671, 4679, 4680, 4690. The love of Jacob for Joseph because he was the son of his old age, denotes the life of the one in the other, because of the commencement of a new state, 4676; also, that there was conjunction in the ancient church with divine truth, 4680. The brethren of Joseph hating him, denotes the posterity of Jacob, their contempt and aversion for divine truth, 4681 ; which they desired to extinguish, 4727. The sons and daughters of Jacob endeavouring to console him for the loss of Joseph, denotes the false interpretations which are applied as sedatives by those who are in falses and evils, 4781—4783. Joseph carried into Egypt meanwhile, denotes the alienation of divine truth and its reception among scientifics, 4788—4790, 4962, 4965—4967. Jacob's sending his sons to buy corn there, denotes the external church seeking the good of truth in scientifics, in order to its being sustained, 5401 — 5415. ;7 438 JAP JER 439 Jacob himself to go there, and the promise that Joseph should put his hand upon his eyes, denotes the initiation of natural truth into the scientifics of the church, and its being vivified by the celestial in- ternal, 6004. 6008, 6638 and citations. Jacob called Israel in this narrative, denotes spiritual good formed in and elevated out of natural truth, conjoined thereto, 5867, 5994, 6030, 6035, 6059, 6082, 6102, ^nm ' In n' ^i^2' ^JJ^' ^^^^ ' ^^'^^ *^*^ ^^ ^^ "^^^^^l ^^^^ «« Jacob 6001, 60 0, 6012, 6019, 6059, 6089, 6173-6175, 6223, 6225, 6236! He and all his family dwelling in Egypt, in the best of the land, and sustained by Joseph, denotes the life of spiritual good conjoined with the truths of the church in the midst of the natural mind, and the continual influx of internal good, 6101-6106, 6169—6175. The time approaching when he must die, and his calling his son Joseph to him, denotes the state immediately before regeneration, and the pre- sence of the internd man 6176, 6177. His requiring an oath from him that he would bury him with his fathers in Canaan, denotes ele- I^Q^" ^^o-,'"''??*'^.^' V regeneration and the life as in ancient times, 0181—6187. His blessing Manasseh and Ephraim, the sons of Joseph, denotes the state of the new will and new understanding from the in- ternal man, 6216, 6222, 6234, 6238, 6256-6099; and as to Joseph himself m this blessing, 6275. His calling his sons together, and bless- ing them, denotes the arrangement of the truths of faith and the goods ^Qin''^!?? /f.o*''*^^'''''" spiritual good flowing in, 6328, 6335— 6340, 6440-6448, His gathering his feet up into the bed, and ex- pinng, and being gathered to his people, denotes the new life from in- teriors collated m inferiors, thus, the existence and life of spiritual good, which IS Israel, in the goods and truths of the inferior natural, which are his sons and the twelve tribes, 6463—6465 ; that a bed and a man in it appears in the other life when Jacob is thought of, 6463. His burial m the field of Machpelah, the burial-place of Abraham in l^anaan, denotes the translation and resuscitation of the church with those who are receptive of the truth and good of faith, 6521—6551.

They who are signified by Japhet ^nst?- nnn n.'n T-*'^"'i?' ^°"espo«ding to the internal, 1083, 1099, 1100, 1140; their quahty described, and how the Lord is present with them 1100, 1101, 1150. Japhet's dwelling in the tentroTsheJ signifies the presence of mternal worship in external, 1102. Japhet called the brother of Shem, denotes the consanguinity between the in- ternal and externa , 1222. Shem and Japhet^s^taking a garment and covenng the nakedness of their father, denotes the excuse of errors and perversities by those who are in charity, and the emendation of evils ^ the application of truth, 1082-1088, 9960 and citations. The aons of Japhet, or the nations and peoples so called, hved in mutual 1 1 charity and friendship, and were only acquainted with external rituals, 1149, 1150. Their names, Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras, signify so many distinct rituals or doctrinals, in both senses, 1151. Those who are comparatively more remote from internal worship, are signified by Gomer and Javan, and those still more so by the isles of the Gentiles, 1131. See Gomer, Javan, Magog, Madai, Tubal, Islands. JARED. See Seth. JASPER \Jaspis\, See Precious Stones. JAVAN, the son of Japhet, signifies external worship remote from internal, 1131, 1152; sometimes, in a good sense, corresponding to internal worship, sometimes the opposite, in common with other Gen- tiles when named in the Word, 1151, 1152. The sons of Javan sig- nify such as are still more sensual, who make worship consist still more in externals, 1 153. The sons of Javan belong to the celestial class, the sons of Gomer to the spiritual, 1155; what is said of them as merchants, ex. 2967, compare 10,258. See Elishah, Tarshish. JAZER [Jaeser]. See Moab. JEBUSITES, the, and other nations mentioned (Gen. x. 16 — 18,) denote so many varieties of idolatry ; and these idolatries, considered interiorly, are certain falses and lusts in whatever nation they are loved and worshiped, but more particularly with the Jews, 1204, 1205. Specifically, the Girgashites and Jebusites denote falses derived from evil, 1867. The Jebusites signify what is idolatrous, but in which there is something of truth, hence they were so long time tolerated in Jerusalem, 6860. See the passages cited concerning the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizites, Hivites, and Jebusites, 10,638. JEGAR-SAHAUUTHA, the heap set up by Jacob and Laban de- notes the quality of the conjunction between the good of works and the good of the Lord's divine natural; called Jegar-Sahadutha by Laban in the idiom of Syria, and Galeed by Jacob, in the idiom of Canaan, 4195, 4196, i7/. 4197. See Jacob. JEHOVAH, Jehovah-God, Jehovih, &c. See Name. JERAH [Jerachl, one of the sons of Joktan, signifies a ritual of the Hebrew Church, 1245 — 1247. See Eber, Hebrews. JERICHO, was a city situated near the Jordan, and by the Jordan is signified that in man which first receives truths ; the healing of the waters of Jericho explained, 9325, and briefly 10,300 end. The walls of Jericho, which fell down when the trumpets were sounded, denote falses which defend evils; and the sound of the trumpets, the pro- cedure of divine truth, 8815. See Music. JERUSALEM [Ilierosolyma']. The holy city or holy Jerusalem, denotes the universal kingdom of the Lord in heaven and earth, or the Lord's church both in common and particular; 402, 940, 3652, 3654 : the new Jerusalem, the same, 2117; see below, 8988. Samaria de- notes the church which is in the affection of truth, Jerusalem, which is in the affection of good ; in the opposite sense, the adulteration of good and the perversion of truth, ill, and sh, 2466, compare 3654, 7456. They who think wisely do not understand the city of Jerusalem when it is mentioned in the Word, but the holy and heavenly Jeru- salem, 2534 end. The spiritual church was first represented by Kiriath- Arba, which is Hebron, until David went from there to Jerusalem and 440 JET occupied Zion ; when this took place the spiritual church began to be represented by Jerusalem, and the celestial by Zion, 2909. See He- bron. Zion denotes the church with those who are in the good of love ; Jerusalem, the church with those who are in truths from that good, 10,037. The places round about Jerusalem, denote the exteriors of the church, Jerusalem the interiors, and Zion the inmost ; hence ascent is predicated of going to Jerusalem, and descent of going from Jerusalem, and the same of going between Jerusalem and Zion, 3084, particularly 4539. Before the building of Zion, Jerusalem signified the church in general, and was made the inheritance of Benjamin, ill, 4592. The jprince of the new Jerusalem treated of in Ezekiel, de- notes truth from the divine proceeding of the Lord; and the new Jerusalem, the new temple and the new earth, the Lord's kingdom, 5044 end. The Lord's spiritual kingdom is denoted by the new Jeru- salem in Ezekiel, and by the holy Jerusalem descending from heaven in the Apocalypse, and because divine truth is principal therein, Jeru- salem is called the throne of Jehovah, 5313. Jerusalem called the holy city, when it is said the dead appeared alive in it, denotes heaven, into which those who belonged to the spiritual church were introduced when they were liberated from damnation, 8018. Jerusalem and the new Jerusalem denote the Lord's church, which is with every one who is receptive of charity and faith from the Lord, 8938. The new and holy Jerusalem denotes the Lord's new church, which is to succeed to the Christian church at this day ; the signification of its walls, gates, measures, &c., ear. 8988 and citations, 9603, 9643; see below, 9407. In the widest sense, Jerusalem denotes the church, but when the church is signified by earth and the mention of Jerusalem follows, Jerusalem denotes the doctrine of the church, which is the doctrine of divine truth from the Word, on this account it is called the city of the Great God, 9166. By the new or holy Jerusalem is meant the new church with the Gentiles, to be raised up after the church in Europe is vastated, 9407, compare 9256. See Nations. Divine worship was instituted solely in Jerusalem, and that city called holy to prevent the Jews worshiping molten and graven images, which every one would have done in his own place, &c., 10,603. JESREEL, OR, Jezreel [Jisreel], which occurs Hosea ii. 22, denotes the new church, 3580. JESSE [Jischai], the father of David was a Bethlehemite, and the Lord was born in Bethlehem, because it denotes the intermediate be- tween the natural and the rational, 4594. The root of Jesse denotes the Lord, 2468. JESUITS, the, or spirits like them observed by the author in the other life ; the scandals they infuse against the Lord, &c,, 8383. See Papacy. JESUS, in the internal sense, signifies divine good, Christ, divine truth, and Jesus Christ the divine marriage of good and truth, 3004 ; hence, the name of the Lord signifies the complex of all doctrine and worship, and is every where involved in every particular of the Word 5502. See Name. ' JETHRO, the priest of Midian, denotes the good of the church with those who are in the truth of simple good, 6827, 7015. His flock kept by Moses, denotes their instruction by the divine law, 6826, V \ I J JE W 441 6827. His being the father-in-law of Moses, denotes the origin of that good which IS conjoined to the truth of the divine law, signified by the latter, 6827, or that from which the conjunction of good and truth exists, 7015. In a superior degree Jethro signifies the divine 12^.1 L!!^**^® of which good is conjoined to divine truth, 8642—8644 8647, 8672 8674. [In Exodus ii. 18, the father-in-k; of Moses is called Reuel, where the author assigns to him the same signification as Jethro, see 6778, 6782. In Numbers x. 29, he is called Raguel, but the word m the onginal Hebrew is the same as Reuel. In Judges IV. 11, he is called Hobab. And in Judges i. 16, Keyni, translated lienite both there and m chapter iv. It has been suggested that the word translated father-in-law is a general term for a relative by mar- riage, and may be read brother-in-law.] See Moses. JETUR. See Ishmael. JEW [Judceas]. 1. Signification. By the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, is not meant the posterity of these patriarchs, for the Jews were the worst of all nations, but they who are principled in goods and ' truths from the Lord, 3373 ; see below (6). By the holy seed is meant those who are holy in internals ; by the holy one of Israel and the God of Jacob is meant the Lord ; and by the land of Canaan, the new Jerusalem, the new temple, &c., his kingdom in heaven, 3481. By Judah and the Jewish nation, the Lord's celestial kingdom was re- presented; by Israel and the Israelitish people, his spiritual kingdom, 3654; see below, 8770, 10,396. Judsea and the land of Judaea, generally, denotes the Lord's church, 3654. The return of the Jews from captivity denotes a new church both in common and in particular with every one who is regenerated, 3654. The Jews had their name from Judah, which name, in the supreme sense, denotes the Lord and his divine love; in the internal sense, the Word, also the Lord's celes- tial kingdom; and in the external sense, doctrine from the Word, which is that of the celestial church ; how all this is involved in the name of Judah, which signifies in the Hebrew tongue to confess, 3880, 3881, 6363; compare 4208 end. By the four sons of Jacob in order, Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah, is represented the progress of the regeneration of the celestial man ; and by the rest, when the order is continued to Joseph, the progress of the regeneration of the spiritual man, 3921 end. By the sons of Jacob is meant his posterity with whom the ancient church, signified by Jacob himself, became merely external, 4470, 4475: see Jacob (1), 4439, 4700, 4772; thus the church which declines from charity to faith, then to faith separate from charity, and at last to falses, 4679, 4690; see below (4), 4502, 4503. By Judah is denoted those who are opposed to every kind of good, because the contrary of the good of love, 4750; the tribe of Judah also went more astray from good than the rest of the tribes, sh. 4815. Judah denotes in general the nation descended from Jacob, and in particular his own descendants, the Jews ; in the former case he denotes either the good or the evil of the church among all the tribes; Israel, either the true or the false, 4815, 4842; that he de- notes the good of the external church, 5583, 5603, ill. 5782, 5794, 5833; see below, 10,335. Judah denotes the Jewish nation, conl sequently, the religious principle of the Jews, 4864. Judah denotes the good of the external church ; Israel, the good of the internal 442 JEW church, 5833. Judah denotes the celestial church, his brethren, the truths of the celestial church, but when called sons of Israel, the ^aI ^^^ spiritual church, 6363, 6364, 6366. The house of Jacob and the sons of Israel represented the spiritual church, external and *°'l™t ' ®^^^ ^^^ citations. The kingdom of Judges first established with the posterity of Jacob, represented divine truth from divine good ; the kmgdom of priests, who were also judges, established afterwards, represented divine good from which proceeds divine truth; but the kingdom of kings represented divine truth without divine good ; why these changes of the government succeeded each other, and the nation was divided, &c., 8770. The tribe of Judah was the first of the tribes, because Reuben, Simeon, and Levi were cursed ; the last of the tribes was Dan, 10,335. Judah denotes the celestial church; Israel, the spiritual church; and all the sons of Jacob, somewhat of the church ; a seriatim collection of passages concerning the Jews and the representation of the church by them, 10,396; see below (4), 9320, 10,396, 10,092; and see Tribes, especiaWy Judah. 2. The Jeics and the land of Canaan. The land of Canaan de- notes the Lord's kingdom in heaven and earth, consequently, the church, 1413, 1437, 1607, 1866, 3038, 3481, 3705, 4240, 4447. The most ancient church, and therefore the garden of Eden, which denotes the intelligence and wisdom of the man of that church, was in Canaan ; hence came the representative signification of places, 4447. The ancient church and also the Hebrew church were in the knd of Canaan, 3686, 4447, 4454, 4516, 4517. The church was preserved m the land of Canaan so long time, and resuscitated there, on account of the signification of places ; the original names of which were given by those who had communication with heaven, thus, that the Word might be written by representatives and significatives, 5136, 6516, 7439, 10,559. The actual representation of the church by the pos- terity of Jacob did not begin until they had come into Canaan, 4430; and this, because all the places there were representative, 7439 ; and that they were permitted to enter into the representation because they were obstinately bent upon it, and upon the occupation of that country, 10,396, 10,432, 10,612. The sons of Israel in the land of Canaan represented the church or things celestial ; the nations there, things internal; on this account the Canaanites were given to devastation, and it was forbidden to enter into any covenant with them, 6306; compare 1868. The sons of Israel entering into the possession of Canaan, represented the spiritual occupying the heaven which was liberated from infernal spirits by the Lord's advent, 6306 ; how erro- neously they think who imagine that the Jews, at the end of the church, will be converted and brought back to Canaan, 3481, 4847 end. Not only the Jewish nation itself, but Christians also, believe that the Jews are the Lord's chosen people, and are to be introduced into Canaan again ; passages cited in which this appears according to the sense of the letter, and the evil quality of the Jews and the univer- sality of the Lord's mercy argued in opposition to it, 7051, 8301 end. The Jews see nothing in their prophecies concerning the Lord but confirmation of their doctrinals concerning the Messiah, and his coming as a great hero to introduce them into Canaan, &c., and this, from their preference of themselves over all other nations, 8780. The Jews JEW 443 1 >k were expelled from Canaan when the internals of the church were discovered bv the Lord, to prevent the profanation of holy things in that land, where every place had been representative of heavenly things from the most ancient times, 10,500. See Representation. 3. Their knowledge and worship of Jehovah. The worship of Je- hovah by the Jews was idolatrous, and only distinguished in name from the worship of other gods by the Gentiles, 3732. It was peculiar to the House of Terah that every family worshiped their own god, and though the family of Abraham acknowledged Jehovah, it was only a diiference of name, 4208 ; and because they believed him to be more powerful, 4692. The Jews had an idea of Jehovah as of a very old man with a long and snowy beard, who could perform miracles beyond other gods ; his appearance to Moses also was like a bearded old man sitting with him, thus adequate to his reception, which was only ex- ternal, 4299. The Lord appears to every one according to their own quality, and as the Isrnelitish people were in the love of self and the world when they received the law at Mount Sinai, he appeared to them in smoke and fire, and thick darkness, 1861, 6832, 8814, 8819; that he appears as a creating and renovating fire to the good, but as a consuming fire to the evil, thus to the Jews, 9434. The Jews were induced to acknowledge Jehovah firom a blind veneration for their fathers, hence he is called the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob ; but they only worshiped his name, and ac- knowledged in heart many other gods ; when miracles ceased they also began to worship other gods, 6877, 7401 ; that they worshiped Je- hovah in name only, 10,566 and citations. The sons of Israel are called the people of Jehovah, not because they were better than other nations, but because they represented the people of Jehovah, for in heart they did not believe in him, but in the gods of Egypt, 7439. The worship of several gods was implanted in the heart of the Jews more than all other nations ; and they exalted Jehovah because they desired their peculiar god to be greater than the gods of others, 8301. They were not willing to supplicate Jehovah in their need, but only to expostulate with him, ill. 8588. They were urgent that Jehovah should be with them, and thereby the church, for the sake of eminence above all other nations in the world, 10,535, 10,559, 10,566 and citations,. 10,570. 4. The Church and the Word with the Jews. The interior truths of faith, the doctrine of the life after death, &c., were not openly re- vealed to the Jews, because they would only have profaned them, 301 — 303, 308, 3398, 4289. All the mysteries of faith were con- cealed from the Jews, and clothed over by the representatives of their church, 302. From the time of the Lord's advent, the Jews have been held in such vastation by their cupidities, especially by avarice, that they hear interibr truths without receiving them, and hence cannot profane them, 303, i7/. 3398. The Jews were altogether in external worship both before and after the advent of the Lord, insomuch as to have no knowledge of the soul, or of spiritual hfe, &c., 1200, 3479. The Jews would not only have failed to understand, but thev would have derided the interior doctrines of the Word, had they been re- vealed ; hence the Lord also spake in parables, and when he discovered the interiors of the Word, it Was for the wise only, 2520 ; that they 444 JEW JEW 445 the Jewish church there w«^ no?;,.

Their being in the holv externals of worship was from the fire of self-love, for the sake of eniinencc above others, 10,570. There could have been no commu- nication with heaven by means of their holy external when they were in worship, or when reading the Word, if their filthy interiors had not been closed, 10,575, 10,629. Their holy external put on for the sake of self was miraculously converted into a holy external for the sake of God by the spirits associated with them, and from these spirits it was received by the angels and converted into a holy internal ; on this account the Jews were accepted, 10,602. Although the external of the Word was changed on their account, the internal remains the same ; the nature of the changes made in the letter exemplified, 10,603; the internal sense which remained the same, ill. 10,604; and that the Word was changed because they were obstinately bent on occupying Canaan and being a church, 10,612. Moses was urgent for the people that they might be accepted, and it was so done in consequence of his urgency, 10,632, compare 10,563, 10,571. Generally, that the Jews and Israelites were the worst of all nations, that they were in externals only, and not in internals when in worship, and that they represented the internals of the church, yet no real church existed amongst them, passages cited, 9320, 10,698. That they were not chosen, but that they were received, because thev obstinately insisted, that their interiors were defiled, that they were idolatrous in heart, &c., passages cited, 10,396, 10,400. That inasmuch as they were in externals without the internal, they could not endure internal things, because such things relate to the Lord and to love and faith in him, and that those who are in the externals of the Word, of the church and of worship, without the^internal, are denoted by them, 10,692, 10,694, 10,701, 10,704, 10,707. That their worship is to come to its full end at the end of the Christian church in Europe, 10,497, compare 4231. 5. Character of the Jews. The Jews cannot be regenerated like the Gentiles, for they differ interiorly by reason of their perverse here- ditary nature, ill. 788; see below, 4294, 4317. Being converted, the Jews fluctuate more than others between the true and the false, in this respect resembling the posterity of the most ancient church, 788, com- pare 10,456. The Jews had no disposition to know, much less to acknowledge and be instructed in the interior truths of the Word ; they were also of such a cruel disposition as to delight in exposing their enemies to be devoured by birds of prey rather than bury them, 908, 5057. The Jewish and Israelitish people believed it to be lawful for them to treat their enemies so, and even their own people when any enmity arose amongst them, 3605. The Jews were permitted to ex- tirpate the inhabitants of Canaan, because the Canaanites were separated from internals ; but the Jews themselves are also called Canaanites, 1167, 1200; see below, 4818. The Canaanites represented all that was infernal and diabolical when the sons of Israel destroyed them, and the Jews and Israelites what was celestial and spiritual, yet the Jews were not in good and truth, for they were themselves the worst nation, 6306, 9320. The Jews were at first a nation, and the priest- hood is predicated of a nation, because nations denote those who are G G 450 JEW in charity ; after the setting up of their kings they became a people, and a people denotes those who are in faith, 1259 end, 1260; see aboTC (1), 8770. The Jews were less in the good of love and charity than other nations, and if they had been made acquainted with in- terior truths they would have, profaned them, as they profaned exte- riors by open idolatry, 3373. When the Lord came into tht-^orld there was not even any natural good remaining with the Jews, 3398, t7/. 4314, 10,355. There are few among the Jews who live in mutual love, thus, who do not despise ethers in comparison with themselves, 3479 end. The Jews even from the time of their fathers were of such a quality that every one was willing to have his own god, and they worshiped Jehovah only as to name, 3732, 4208, 5998 ; see above (3). Jacob and his posterity were of such a quality that celestial and spi- ritual love could not be conjoined with natural good in them, that is, the internal or spiritual man with the external or natural, 4281 ; that they resisted all influx from heaven, ill, 10,429, 10,490, 10,526— 10,531. The Jews exceed all others in the love of self, and the love of the world's riches, and in their fear of losing either honour or gain, 4293. The Jews of the present day like those of old, look with con- tempt on others, and make the acquisition of wealth their most in- tense study; and besides this, they are fearful, 4293. Goods and truths utterly perished with the posterity of Jacob, insomuch that their hereditary disposition to evil cannot be eradicated by regeneration, 4294, ill. 4317 ; their loss of goods and truths more particularly illus- trated ; and their quality shown from the Lord's parables, and from many things that he said concerning them, 4314. The Jews were principled in worldly and corporeal love, not in any celestial and spi- ritual love, 4307; hence, they were surrounded by evil spirits even when they were in a holy external, 4311. The wicked character of the Jews has been manifest from the first posterity of Jacob, and by all that is recorded of them to the present time, namely, that they are against the Lord, against charity to the neighbour, and mutually divided against one another, sh, 4316, 10,429. The Jews could not be regenerated, thus, hereditary evil could not be removed from them, because they always succumbed in temptations, even though they were only external ; the nature of hereditary evil, and its removal by rege- neration, ill. 4317; as to their succumbing in temptations, 8588. The Jews, for the most part, are in externals only, and opposed to the internal doctrines of the church, because they are in avarice ; what it is to be in externals without internals, ill. 4459 ; further ill. 4464 ; and that they made purity and sanctity consist in externals, 4465. The same hatred of others, the same pride of heart, and delight in cruelty, by which the Jews were always distinguished, remains with them now, but it is not manifest because they live precariously in strange lands, 4750. The Jews, from the very first, have been more than others opposed to every kind of good, and this, from their sordid avarice, in which is latent the vilest and lowest love of self; by such avarice, however, they are kept from profaning interior goods and truths, ill. 4751 ; that the love of self is concealed in their hearts as with all the sordidly avaricious, 10,407. The Jews derive their origin from an illegitimate stock ; one-third of the tribe being from a Canaanitish mother, and the remaining two-thirds from JEW 451 I \ f a daughter-in-law, thus from fornication and whoredom, «A. 4818, 4820. The evil origin of the Jews involves a similar state of their interiors, thus, that they are principled iu evils of life derived from false doctrines also originating in evil, and in the falsification of truth, ill. 4818. The whole Jewish nation, but especially the descend- ants of Judah, were from the first in false doctrine derived from evils of life, but one son of Judah different from another, on which account only one of his sons was preserved, 4832. Amongst the Jews there was no sense of conjugial love, whether understood naturally or spi- ritually ; thus, neither the church nor the marriage state was eenuine with them, 4837, 4899. The Jews are withheld from faith even though they live in the midst of Christians, on account of their prone- ness to indulge in the worst evils, and thus to profane the truth ; their laws concerning leprosy explained of profanation, 6963. The Jewish nation is immersed in filthy loves, in sordid avarice, in hatred and pride beyond others, sh. 7051 ; how cruelly their wars were con- ducted in the time of David, 7248. The Jews and Israelites were not better than other nations, and in no respect chosen for heaven ; they are called the people of Jehovah because they were admitted to represent his people, 7439. The Jews are of all nations the most avaricious, for they are in the mere love of money without regard to its use, how the mind is drawn down and immersed in the body, and the interiors closed against love and faith hereby, 8301, 10,407. It would be easier to convert stones to faith in the Lord than the Jews, how mistaken they are who think the church will ever pass to them, 8301 end. The excessive self-humiliation in which they exceeded all other nations proceeded from the ardency of their evU loves, and was persisted in to obtain their own worldly ends, 10,430. Holy worship with them was only a means, and eminence and opulence the end, thus, their interiors were utterly opposed to the truths and goods of the church, 10,455 ; the lamenteble state of their interiors described, 10,454—10,457, 10,462—10,466. The internals of the Jewish na- tion were closed against the influx of good and truth both to prevent their profanation and that communication with heaven might be pre- served by the external, 10,490, particularly 10,492, 10,493; thus there was no reception of good and truth from heaven with that nation, but they were wholly averted and alienated from the divine, 10,498. As to their lot in the other life, see below (7). t» -j 6. The Historical Figures by which they are represented. Besides the internal spiritual sense there is an internal historical sense in which the meaning of the narrative concerning Jacob and his sons is applied to himself and his posterity, 4279. The want of conjunction between spiritual and natural love, but especially the relaxation of conjugial love with that nation, denoted by the hurt done to the hollow of Jacob's thigh, 4280, 4281. The contumacy of their cupidities and phantasies urging them to the representation of spiritual things, denoted by the refusal of Jacob to let the man go until he blessed him, when he en- tered Canaan, 4282, 4288, 4290, 4293. Their incapacity to enter upon the representation without a new quality put on, denoted by the name of Jacob changed to Israel, 4292.

The book of Job is a book of the ancient church ; a passage cited, and its signification ex, 2682. It is written according to representatives and significatives, but it does not rank with the books which are called the law and the prophets, because it is without the internal sense which treats of the Lord and his kingdom ; passages cited and ex, 3540 end, 3813, 3901.

JONAH [Jonas], The words of Jonah when in the belly of a great fish are a prophetic description of the Lord's temptations against the hells, 1691. Nineveh was pardoned after Jonah was sent to it, because it denotes the state of those who are in falses from the fallacies of the senses, from the obscurity of the understanding not illustrated, and from ignorance, 1188. The historical account of Jonah, like all the other historical portions of the Word, is representative, 1709.

To arise, and go, and live, denotes ele- Tation from superiors to interiors, and the life therein ; to journey, the order of the life, and the successive state of the life ; to sojourn, or dwell as a stranger, life according to instruction ; how the significa- tion of these terms arises from changes of state appearing as changes of place in the other Hfe, 5605, 8397, 8420 ; and that motions and progressions m the other life are changes of the state of the interiors, from experience, &c., 1273—1277, 1376-1382, 9440, 10,734. See Place, Spirit; as to sojourning or tarrying, see Sojourner, and as to dwellmg, see to Inhabit.

JOY, Gladness [Gaudiumy latitia]. The generality have so common an idea concerning heavenly joy that it amounts to no idea ; how innumerable in their variety heavenly joys are, 449, 457. The joys of I 458 JUD heaven are ineffable ; the ideas and experiences of the author concern- ing them, 545, 546, 549, 5662, 6408, 8456, 10,722—10,724. The joy of heaven is the divine influx into good-willing and good-doing to others, and the happiness and blessedness resulting herefrom exceeds all perception, 4721, ilL 4776, 8037. Heaven, and the joy of heaven, then first begins in man when he ceases to regard himself in the uses which he performs, 5511. See Heaven (4). The regenerate are joyful when they act according to conscience from the good of charity, and they come into anxiety from the contrary ; the unregenerate find their joy in what favours their own loves, ill. 977 ; the interior glad- ness of the regenerate illustrated by a comparison with flowers and fruits, 5116. Gladness is predicated of truth, joy of good, 2851, 8056 ; to be glad in heart, of the affection of love, 7002. Gladness is predicated of spiritual affection or of truth ; and joy, of celestial affection or of good : thus gladness is less in degree than joy, br. ill, .3118, ill, and ah, 4137; further illustrated from the marriage of good and truth, 4434, 8339 end, 9182. The joy perceived as solace by man when evil spirits are overcome in him, is not a rejoicing in victory, but is the joy belonging to the conjunction of good and truth, 4572; that there is a conjunction or marriage of good and truth, and that the highest felicity pertains to it, 5365 end; br, ill, 5871 ; that gladness and delight succeeds to temptations by which goods and truths are im- planted and conjoined, 1992, 3696, 4572, 5628, 6414; and that hence arises the significations of feasts, 7093, 9286, 9294, 10,655, 10,659, 10,669-— 10,671, compare 10,114; of singing, S261 ; and of music and the dance, 8337, 8339, 8340, 10,416, 10,459. The divine joy when good and truth are received is infinite, because the love which gives birth to the joy is infinite; the gladness of Jethro, ex, 8672. All delight and cheerfulness flows-in from the spirits and angels that dwell with man according to his ruling love, 8865. See Delight. JUBAL. See Lamech. JUBILEE. See Music (trumpet), JUD^A, or the land of Judaea, signifies the Lord's church, 3654 ; specifically, the celestial church, 10,396 and citations. See Jew (1). JUDAH [JehudnK]. See Tribes. JUDAS ISCARIOT, represented the Jewish church, and his sell- ing the Lord was similar to the act of Judah, who sold Joseph, 4751. See Jew. JUDGE, to, [judicare], signifies to teach; thus judgment is pre- dicated of instruction in truth, justice of the exercise of good, 2372. To judge, predicated of the Lord, denotes his divine arrangement, thus, providence, 7160. To judge signifies the disposition or arrange- ment of truths from divine influx, because the Lord judges no one, but judgment is from the laws of order belonging to such arrangement, and is according to reception, 8685, 8694. He who judges from genuine doctrine when there is strife concerning truths, removes falses, and the contrary, 9425; compare 6766. The name of Dan, which signifies in the Hebrew tongue * to judge,' denotes in the supreme sense the justice and mercy of the Lord; in the internal sense, the holy principle of feith; in the external, the good of life, ill. 3921, 3923. The name of Dinah, which signifies in the Hebrew tongue 'judgment,' denotes the church of faith m which is good, because judgment is predicated of the X JUD 459 truth of faith, &c., 3964. Dan shall judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel, denotes truth in its office, and that the truth repre- sented by Dan is one of the common truths from which judgment is given, 6397. See Judgment. As to the liberty of judging others, see 2284 ; as to the faculty of judgment^ 1495, 6814. ^e Under- standing. JUDGES [judices]. In the representative church the priests were at the same time judges; consiaered as priests, they represented divine good, as judges divine truth ; the judge of the whole earth in- cludes both, and denotes good itself from which truth proceeds, 2258, ill, 6148, A judge signifies a leader, and the Lord is called a judge because he leads those who are in the good of innocence but not yet in truth, and those who are in truth but not yet in good, 4844 ; the case of Moses, called a prince and judge, 6766, Judges are those who distinguish and decide according to justice and equity, 9047. They whose functions .pertained to judgment were called judges and after- wards kings ; they who ministered in worship, priests; and because all judgment is by truth, and all worship from good, judges denote truth from good, kings truth from which good is, and priests good itself, 9806. See King, Priest. Spirits who were judges in the life of the body and were delighted when they found what they believed just reason for inflicting fines and punishment, are in the province of the kidneys and ureters, 5382. JUDGMENT [judicium~\f is predicated of truth, justice of good ; Noah a just and whole man, denotes the good and truth of charity, 612; the signification of justice and judgment further sh, 2235, 9263 end. A judge denotes good; judgment, truth; the judge of the whole earth, divine good itself, ill. 2258. See Judges. Judgment is twofold, namely, from good and from truth, because the faithful are judged from good, and the unfaithful from truth, ill, 2335. Jus- tice is predicated of the exercise of good, judgment of instruction in truth, 2372. Judgment is from and according to divine truth, but it is not alike with the evil and with the good, because the latter re- ceive divine truth, and are judged from good, but the evil reject it and are judged from truth, 5068 ; a case in illustration, 5759. Je- hovah's seeing and judging denotes divine arrangement, which is the result of his seeing and judging, and that these are properly called Preevidence and Providence, 7160. Judgments denote truths; to be delivered with great judgment, denotes according to the laws of order, which are divine truths, ill. 7206; that judgments and laws denote truths and the truths of good, 8695, 9260 and citations. See Judg- ments. Judgment denotes both the damnation of the evil and the salvation of the good, because the same truths according to recep- tion effect both, ill. 7206, 9857, compare 7873. It is the order of divine truth separate from divine good, which manifests that the evil are damned, and it is the order of divine truth conjoined with divine good, by which the good are saved ; that the evil are not judged in a moment but explored by degrees, 7273, ill, 7295, compare 2121. Judgment is not from divine truth, thus the Lord does not judge any one, but divine truth flows in and arranges in order, and judgment is from the laws of such order, ill. 8685, 8694, 8716, 8728. Judgment denotes divine truth and hence doctrine, and a life according to it, /\ 460 J UD JUD 461 tih. 9857 ; the spirit of judgment, wisdom from divine truth, 9857, ill, 10,330, 10,331. See to Judge, Justice. The breast-plate of judgment worn by Aaron signifies divine truth shining from divine good, ill. 9823, ill. and sh., 9857, 9908, 9909. See Aaron (sup- plement). 2. The Last Judgment, both in general and particular is when the Lord comes, 900 ; see below, 4059. The last judgment is also when man passes into the other life, 900, 1850, 2118; how it is effected, 2119. The times of the last judgment are signified by the numbers three and seven, 900. A last judgment is predicated of every church when it is vastated, 931, 2118. The last judgment of the most an- cient church is signified by the flood ; that of the ancient church was about the time of Eber, when the idolatrous nations were dis- persed ; that of the Jewish church was when the Lord came into the world ; that of the Christian church is the judgment foretold in the Apocalypse, 931, ilL 1850, 2118, 4057, 4333. Judgment is predi- cated when evil has reached its height, or iniquity is consummated, be- cause evil then runs into its punishment, 1311 ; that the consumma- tion of iniquity is the destruction of the church by falses and evils, ill. and ah. 1857. Judgment is preceded by visitation, and the Lord is said to descend and see, because the evil think that he does not pre- viously regard them, and that their punishment is from bin}, 1311, 2242; that to see, is the divine perception, or Preevidence, and to judge, the divine arrangement, or Providence, 7160; and that the day of visitation is the last state of the church, both in particular and in general, when the exploration and separation of the good and evil takes place; thus, when there is judgment, 10,509. See Visitation, Consummation, Vastation. They are greatly deceived who believe according to the literal sense, that the last judgment is the destruction of the world, 931, 1850, 2117, 4059, 4535. Heaven and earth perish- ing at the last judgment, denotes the end of the church, both internal and external, 1850, 2118, 4535; how the Lord's words concerning the consummation of the age, the sea and the waves roaring, the sun and the moon being obscured, the stars falling from heaven, and nation rising against nation, are to be understood of spiritual things, 2 1 20, 4060 ; see below, 3353, and citations following. The last judgment was manifestly at hand when the author wrote, as appeared to him from the state of the spiritual world ; for example, that the world of spirits and its interior sphere were overcharged with evil genii and evil spirits mostly from the Christian orb, 2121 ; that the generality of Christians were ensnared by the love of self and the world, so that they despised charity and faith, and occupied their minds with obscene and profane thoughts, 2122; that the malignity of hereditary evils had greatly increased, insomuch that the balance began to incline on the side of evil, 2122; and that goods and truths from heaven were instantly turned into evils and falses, 2123, ill. 3607; see also 3489. When evil begins to prevail the last judgment is at hand, because the equi- librium must be restored by the rejection of those who are within the church, and the reception of others who are without, 2122. In the antediluvians voluntary good was destroyed, and now in the Christian church intellectual good had begun to perish, 2124 ; the state of Chris- tians represented to the author by the appearance of black spirits, by i children who were cruelly combed by their mothers until the blood flowed, by a tree into which a viper ascended, by a dog, and by two women in a kitchen, 2125 ; their opposition to innocence represented by the cruel treatment of an infant by evil spirits ; and that their in- ternals are such, though they do not appear of such a quality in the world, 2126. In the other Hfe something like a last judgment is re- presented to the evil when their societies are dissolved, 2127; how their dissociation was effected in the author's experience by a company of spirits, filling them with consternation and dispersing them ; and that such spirits are denoted by the east wind, 2128; how efi*ected also by conflicting thoughts and reasonings ; a disputation whether the twelve apostles on twelve thrones judge the twelve tribes of Israel, and whether others are admitted into heaven besides those who have suffered misery and persecution; how these things are to be understood, 2129. An idea of the last judgment is also sometimes represented to the good when they are admitted into heaven, 2127; how they are delivered from the wolf, their fears that the door would be shut, their introduc- tion into various societies, the appearance that heaven is closed against others who come aflerwards, what is meant by their coming too late, their knocking, their wanting oil, &c., 2130, 4635—4638; with what joy they are received, and that they pass from one society to another according to their desires, 2131; what is meant also by one coming to the marriage without a wedding garment, that it denotes those who are in hypocritical deceit, who can insinuate themselves into heavenly societies, but who are cast down of themselves into some hell, 2132; and that a heavenly glorification of the Lord was heard by the author to an immense degree ; that it was seen also like a descending radia- tion ; and that such glorifications are from the tranquillity and peace of heaven, 2133. The evil are separated from the good by the holy proceeding of the Lord's divine human, which they cannot endure ; hence, judgment is predicated of the Son, or the divine human, and not of the Father, 23 1 9 — 2322 ; some particulars concerning the sepa- ration of the good from the evil, 2438 ; and that the Lord appeared to the inhabitants of a certain earth as descending in human form in a cloud and radiance ; that the spirits were gathered to the right and the left, and thus separated ; and that this was according to the recep- tion of truth from good, and of the false from evil with the inhabitants of the lower earth there, 10,810. The Lord judges all from good, and desires to raise all into heaven, but the evil reject the good ; hence, to be judged from good is to be saved, because it is to receive the good, but to be judged from truth is to be damned, because it is to reject the good, ill. 2335. The Lord judges all from justice because from divine truth, and he hears all from mercy, because from divine good ; from justice those who do not receive divine good, and from mercy those who receive it, ill. 3921 ; and that justice is the exercise of good, 2372 above ; compare 5068, also above. The last judgment is the end of the church with one nation and its beginning with another, 3353, 4057 ; the words of the Lord concerning his advent at the con- summation of the age, the successive vastation of the church and the last judgment, fully explained. Matt, xxiv., verses 3 — 8, 3353 — 3356 ; versesB— 14,3486— 3489; versesl5— 18, 3650—3655; verses 19—22, 3751—3757; verses 23—28, 3897—3901; verses 29—31, 4056— j 462 JUD JUS 463 4060; verses 32—35, 4229—4331; verses 36—41, 4332—4335; verses 42 — 51, 4422 — 4424 ; the whole in a summary, 4422; and the subject continued in chap, xxv., verses 1 — 13, 4635—4638; verses 31 — ^16, 4661 — 4664; and as to the sheep and goats, 4169 end; verses 31—33, 4807 — 4810; verses 34—36, 4954—4959; verses 37 — 46, 5063 — 5071 ; passages from the Prophets and the Apocalypse, 4535. The last judgment, or end of the church, is when there is no longer any acknowledgment of the Lord, or what is the same, when there is no longer any faith, and this is when there is no longer any diarity, 3353; the several states of this declension from good and truth, 3487, 3655, 3754, 3899, 4229, 4422 ; and that therefore the last iudgroent has been often repeated, 4057. When the Lord speaks of the last judgment. Matt. xxv. 32 — 46, he declares that they who do good works shall enter into eternal life, and they who do evil works into damnation, because the hfe of the internal man exists in the works of the external, 3934. See Good (2). It is erroneous to be- lieve that the Ust judgment is the end of the world, and that then the Lord will come in the clouds, &c., the Lord has come as often as the church has been vistated, though not in person as when he assumed the human by nativity, 4059, 4060 ; that he said, " For judgment I ■■I oome into the world,*' denotes in order to the revelation of divine tmtb, 9857. The last judgment is the end or rejection of an old church and the beginning of a new one by the Lord's advent, 4230, 4231, 4333, 4525; that there have been four such judgments in this orb, 4333. The state of mankind at the last judgment is described 01 it was in the davs of Noah, because of the inundation of evils and «€., 4334. The inundation of evils and falses at the last iseU the interiors, and causes the removal of heaven from the old church and its communication with others, 4423. It is the judgment to every one when he dies, for the material body does -ite again ; the Lord*s words in Matthew, ex, 4807, 4808 ; that is BO remrrection of the material body, ill, 5078, 5079 ; and how MMne believe the soul to be mere thought, others that it is o kind of iptolre, others that they are to rise again at some remote fmmi when a Ust judgment will take place, and then to have a body, 4527. All nations ynihered together to judgment when the son of ■Mi ooaet in his glory, denotes the judgment of every one according lo Us deeds when divine truth appears in its light, 4809, 4810; that is judged according to his will and the acts proceeding there- , not aecording to his thoughts and acts only, because the will ii the muk himself, 891 1 ; and that he is said to be judged according lo hm imim, because the thought and the will are contained in them •Old in its body, ill, 9824, further ill. 10,331.

JUDGMENTS \Judieia], denote truths, because all judgment is bj tnOht, and to judge is to do the truth, 8972 and citations. The to the ehildren of Israel are distinguished into precepts, and statutes ; precepts are the external truths which relate to life ; ja^pMDla, such as relate to the civil state ; and statutes, such V j as relate to worship, sh, 8972, 9282; called laws, judgments, and statutes, 9349; see below, 9001. The statutes, judgments, and laws given to the Israelitish and Jewish nation were not new, but were known before, either in the ancient or Hebrew churches, 4444, 4449. Judgments and statutes serve for laws in the church where internal things are represented by external, but not in the church to which in- ternal truths are revealed, because in such a church it is not by ex- ternals that communication is preserved with heaven, but by internals, 8972, 10,637. The laws called judgments, together with the sacrifices and other rituals, ceased to be binding when the Lord came into the world and opened the interiors of worship, and in general, the interiors of the Word, 921 1, 10,637. The laws, judgments, and statutes divided into three classes, namely, those which are to be observed and done, those which may serve for use if desired, and those which are utterly abro- gated ; that the latter are still most holy in the external expression on account of the internal sense contained in them, 9349. A statute de- notes the external truth or order of the church, judgment the internal, 8357. Judgments signify truths, laws the truths of good, 8695. Judg- ments are the external truths or laws of the civil state where the church is representative, 9001. By judgment is meant the truth and the right, 9260. Judgments denote those truths contained in the Word which relate to the natural life, but the words of Jehovah such as relate to the spiritual life, 9383. Precepts, judgments, and statutes are alto- gether called the law, and the several particulars of the law are called precepts or commands, 9417. See Law. JUGGLER-SHE [prceatigiatrix]. See Magic.

The Lord alone was made justice, and this for the whole human race ; that this was predicted by the prophets, and that it is involved in the words con- cerning the imputation of justice to Abraham on account of his faith, 1813. They who desire to make themselves just, that is, to believe that the goods of charity and the truths of faith are from themselves, act against good and truth, for the verimost truth of faith is that the Lord alone combats with hell in man, 1813 ; and that such are in the infernal city called the Judgment of Gehennah, 942 ; their quality and state further sh, 2027. The Lord made himself justice by his own power, and this by the reciprocal union of the human essence with the divine, and the divine with the human, ill, 2004, 2025, 2026 ; that this divine, with the man who receives it, is the justice of the Lord with him, 9263. The human essence was made justice by fighting in its own strength with all the hells, and overcoming them, whereby the world of spirits was liberated from infernal genii and spirits, and the human race saved, 2025, iU. 2026, 2102, 3301.

The grievous temptations by which the Lord was made justice are signified by the \i 464 JUS ii KAD price of redemption ; passages cited seriatim, 2966; see below, 9/15, 9809, 9937, &c. The purification and justification of man by the Lord is effected gradually, and at last he is only withheld from evil and kept in good by the continual influx of life, 2116, ill, 4564. They who are in good are called just, they who are in truth upright or righteous, sh. 2235, 2250, 9192; thus, justice is predicated of good and its exercise, and judgment of truth, 2258, 2372, 9263 end, 9857. Justice and judgment predicated of the Lord denotes all mercy and grace; predicated of man, all charity and faith, 2235 end. The per- ception of justice and equity belonging to civil and moral life is common to all who are rational, but it does not follow that such have any perception of good and truth, which is interior, or spiritual ; and it is the perception of good and truth that gives conscience, ill, 283 1 ; that honesty and decorum, good and truth, justice and equity follow each other in order, and that conscience is founded upon them, 2915; also that there is a conscience of moral and civil good and truth, and that it consists in the sense of what is just and equitable, proper to the natural man, 4167; and that the truths of justice and morality are discerned from spiritual Hght in the natural man, 8861 ; see below, 5130. The Lord judges all from justice, thus from divine truth, and in all divine justice there is divine mercy, as in all divine truth there is divine good, 3921. Justice is predicated of good, and when the Lord is treated of it denotes his divine sanctity, from which all celes- tial and spiritual good proceeds, 3997 ; that Jehovah as divine good IS called just, 7590 ; and Jehovah our Justice, 9715. The justice and merit of the Lord with man is signified by all that was white in the flock of Jacob, and this from the light of truth ; in the opposite sense, white denotes own merit and justice, ill. and sh. 3993, 4007. Man is so far in heaven as he puts off his own merit and justice, and puts on the merit and justice of the Lord, that this is signified by white raiment, &c., 4007 end. They are called just who are in the good of charity, and that they believe they are unjust of themselves, but are made just by the appropriation of the Lord's justice, 5069 ; the con- trary, ill. 5758 ; and that such are signified by the sheep on the right hand and the goats on the left, 9263 and citations. All who are in faith from charity are governed by justice and equity in every iota of thought, speech and action ; that this prevailing justice is signified by their always remembering the Lord, 5130. Just, justice, and to justify are expressions of frequent occurrence in the Word, but hitherto It has not been known what they signify in the internal sense, how erroneously such expressions are taken, 9263. Justice is the good of love to the neighbour, innocence the good of love to the Lord ; thus innocence is interior good, justice exterior, ill. 9262. The good that IS from the Lord with man is without fault and without evil, and this good in the exterior is what is called just, 9262 end. The Lord is the Only Just, and they who are in the good of charity are just from him, 9263. The only good that reigns in heaven and makes heaven IS the good of the Lord's merit and justice; illustrated by the ark made of Shittim-wood, by which the good of merit, which is justice, is signified, 9486; and by the altar made of Shittim-wood, 9715; also by Its square shape, 9717; and that the wood used in sacrifices denotes the merit of Justice, 2798.

They are justified by the Lord who are puri- fied from the loves of self and the worid, whether within the church or without, and who are made rational by truth, 2114—21 16 There is no such thing as justification by the obhteration of evil, for all evil remains even with the angels, and they can only be withheld from if thus they do not acknowledge to any justice of their own, but the justice of the Lord, 2116, ill. 4564. The persuasive faith concerning justification, m common with other persuasions, can only be removed by the utmost despair of salvation, from the perception that man of liimselt IS nothing but a most impure congeries of evils, 2694 No one can be justified, much less sanctified, except from the Lord's divine human, 3/04. They who believe themselves to be justified, so that evil IS no longer in them, are not among the just but the unjust, for they attribute good to themselves and never adore the Lord from true humiliation, 5069, ill. 5758. No one could believe in justification or the instantaneous remission of sin, if he knew what evil or sin really IS and by what indefinite means the separation of evil spirits is effected, *^/. 5398.

KETURx\H, taken by Abraham for a woman, and his descendants by her, represent the Lord's spiritual kingdom and its derivations, 3230. Abraham and Sarah represent the Lord as to the divine celes- tial; Abraham and Keturah as to the divine spiritual, ilL 3235, 3239. Abraham represents the Lord as to divine good spiritual, Keturah as to divine truth spiritual, 3239, 3243; called the essence of divine truth, 3237. The sons of Keturah, Zimram, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah, represent the common lots or heritable divisions of the Lord's spiritual kingdom both in heaven and earth, 3239. The sons of Jokshan, Sheba, and Dedan, denote those who are more in good belonging to this kingdom, and the sons of Midian, those who are more in truth, 3240, 3242. None of the sons of Abraham and Keturah are mentioned elsewhere in the Word except Midian, but they are understood by the sons of the East so frequently spoken of, 3239 ; by Sheba and Dedan mentioned in other places, is to be understood the alleged grandsons of Ham, and not those who really existed as nations, 3240. Generally, the sons of Keturah denote the doctrines and wor- ship of the Lord's spiritual kingdom, 3243 ; their being sent away by Abraham, the distinction and separation of such things from the celes- tial, 3247. The land of the East to which they were sent was Syria, where the last remains of the ancient church existed, 3249. See Mi- dian, Sheba, Syria. KEY [clavis].

The correspondence of the kidneys, the ureters, and the bladder with the Grand Man, ill. and ah. 5378 — 5386, 5391. The spirits of these provinces delight in exploring, searching, and chastising others if they can find any just cause for so doing; how they infest the spirits of the peritonaeum, and how these spirits quell them, 5378, 5381—5384. The kidneys are first in the series to which the ureters and the bladder also belong; how the spirits of these provinces form a corresponding order, and that the tract in which they dwell is one of the common ways to hell, 5380. The offices of those who belong to the kidneys, the ureters, and the bladder, are the same by correspondence as those of the organs; that many of them were judges in the life of the body, and still sit as it were in judgment, 5381, 5382 ; their means of exploring and punishing others, ex. 5383, 5384. When it is said in the Word that Jehovah searches the kidneys (reins) and the heart, the quality of man as to spiritual things or truth, and as to celestial things or good, is signified; also that chastisement is predicated of the kidneys in the Word, sh. 5385. The use of the succenturiate kidneys or renal capsules, ex., and that their province in the grand man is constituted by chaste virgins, 5391. That the kidneys denote interior truth, exploring, purifying, and chas- tising, also truth purified; and the fat of the kidneys, its good, 10,032, 10,074; and that the ureters and bladder denote exterior truth, its exploration and chastisement, 10,032 end.

When kings are named in the Word they have the same signification as the names of their kingdoms, 1 482, ill. 5079, 6015. Kings, kingdoms, and peoples denote truths, 1672, 1685, 2069; in the opposite sense, falses, 1682, 1721, 1740; see below, 3708. That kings denote truths, ill. and sh. 2015, 3703, 3708, 4575, 4581, 4966, 5044, 6148, 8142, 9146, 9405; when predicated of the Lord, divine truth, 9942, particularly 9954; and that thev denote falses, 3708, 6651, 6799, 7222, 7224, 8142, 9146, 9954. Kings are predicated of peoples, not of nations ; that the Israelites before they had a king were a nation and represented good, afterwards that they were a people and represented truth, 1672; but that kings are also predi- cated of nations when the latter represent evils, 2069; see below, 8770, 8771. The Lord as king governs all from divine truth; as priest, from divine good ; and it was this government of truth and dominion of good that was represented by kings and priests in the Jewish church, 1728, further ill. 2015, 3969, 6148, 8625. Kings and sons of kings H h 2 / /^k 468 KIN denote truths, or what is the same, those who are in truths, 2015, 2781; see below, 3703. Kings represent truths, which ought not to rule, because truth considered in itself damns man ; the words of Moses and Samuel concerning the election of a king by the Israelites, 2015 end; and the operation of the laws of order from truth alone, ill, 2447; see below, 6148, 8770. A kingdom denotes the truth of doc- trine, in the opposite sense the false of doctrine; thus, kings and kingdoms in the Apocalypse denote various states of the church as to truths and falses, 2547. Nations and kingdoms denote goods and truths ; in the opposite sense, evils and falses, sh. 2547, 3353. The truth signified by a king is the truth of good, hence the Anointed and the Messiah have the same signification, 3009, 4973, particularly 9144 ; see below, 9954. A king denotes the truth of doctrinals; and doc- trinals are appearances of truth, or vessels, in which the divine truth can be, 3365, All kings, even at this day, in virtue of their kingship repre- sent the Lord, and also all priests ; but they who arrogate the sanctity of these offices to themselves represent the opposite, 3670; that the coronation ceremonies also represent holy things, 4581, 4966; see below, 9954. A king denotes divine truth, a king's daughter the love of truth, princes the chief precepts of truth, 3703 and citations. The daughters of kings in the Jewish church represented affections of good and truth, and on this account they were clothed in coloured garments, &c, 4677, 9688 end, 9942, 10,227. Kings represented the Lord as to divine truth, and priests as to divine good, which are related to each other as a son to a father ; hence kings themselves addressed the priests by the title of father, 3704 ; that kings signify truths, and priests goods, 6148. Kings denote truths, and kingdoms those things which belong to truth ; in the opposite sense, falses and the things belonging to them, 3708 end. To reign is predicated of truths which are of the understanding ; and to rule, of goods which are of the will ; such also is the difference between kingdom and dominion, sh. 4691, 4973. The Lord is called King of kings from divine truth, and Lord of lords from divine good ; on this account also he is called king in respect to peoples and Lord in respect to nations, 4973 ; and because judgment is ac- cording to divine truth, he is described in scenes of judgment as a king sitting on the throne of his glory, 5068, further ilL and sh, 5313, 5922, 8625. The Lord is called a king, and the celestial man a king's son, sh. 337, compare 2069. It was customary in ancient times to bow the knee before kings when they rode abroad in their chariots, because the king represented the Lord as divine truth, and his chariot the Word, 5323. The kingship in the sight of the ancients was the law, which they adored in the king as its guardian, because it was from divine truth ; the king also attributed nothing to himself but the guardianship of the law, 5323. The kingship and priesthood were formerly united in one person, because divine good and divine truth proceed together from the Lord ; the division of authority be- tween kings and priests afterwards was not according to the good plea- sure of the Lord, because divine truth separate from divine good damns everyone, 6148; also, that empires and kingdoms were made out of societies from the loves of self and the world prevailing, 7364 ; see below, 10,814. The followers of the Lord are said to be made kings and priests from receiving the truth of faith and the good of charity ; KIN 469 T V on this account, also, kings and priests are so often named together in Scripture, 6148. The kingdom of judges first estabHshed with the posterity of Jacob, represented divine truth from divine good ; the kingdom of priests who were also judges, established afterwards, re- presented divine good from which proceeds divine truth ; but the kingdom of kings represented divine truth without divine good ; why these changes of the government succeeded each other, and the nation was divided, &c., 8770. Judges signify truth from good because all judgment is from truth, but kings signify the truth from which good proceeds, and priests good itself; hence the Lord is called judge, pro- phet, and king, also Christ, Anointed and Messiah, when truth is pre- dicated ; and priest, or Saviour, when the subject concerns good, 9806 ; that the Lord's priesthood is the divine good of his divine love, and his kingship divine truth, ill. and sh. from the symbol of Melchizedek, &c., 9809; see below, 1657. It became customary from ancient times to anoint kings, and they were called the anointed of Jehovah, in order to represent the Lord as to judgment from divine truth, thus as to the divine human ; hence, it was sacrilege to injure kings, fully ill. and sh. 9954. As to the kingship at this day, that it consists in the whole administration of which the king is the head ; that it is not in the person of the king, but in his office as administrator of the laws ; and that he who acts independently of the laws is not a king, but a tyrant, 10,800—10,806. As to the prerogative of mercy and its ex- ercise by kings, 8227. And as to the two forms of government, viz., that derived from love towards the neighbour, and that derived from the love of self; in a conversation with certain angels, 10,814. See Government. Chedorlaomer and the kings with him warring against the king of Sodom and his confederates, four kings with five, denotes the Lord in his boyhood overcoming evils and falses by apparent goods and truths, 1651—1654, 1659—1664, 1667, 1671, 1672, 1681, 1689. The vic- torious kings taking Lot and all his acquisition captive, and Abram's delivering him, denotes the occupation of the natural man by these apparent truths and goods, and his Hberation by the rational, 1655, 1697, 1698, 1706—1719. Melchizedek, king of Salem, bringing forth bread and wine, and he a priest of the most high God, and his blessing Abram, denotes the influx of peace with celestial good and truth after temptations, 1657, 1724—1729, 6148.

A nation, a congregation of na- tions, and kings, from the loins of Israel, denotes the celestial and spi- ritual things of love, 1416. The fruitfulness promised to Jacob, and kings to go out from his loins, denotes good formed by truth, and truths proceeding from' the heavenly marriage, thus, from the divine human, 4573 — 4575. The kings who reigned in Edom before there reigned any king over the sons of Israel, denote principal truths in the Lord's divine human, when the interior natural was not yet occupied by spiritual truth, 4650; as to the dukes and princes of Edom, 4647, ^7^^ 470 KIN (I 8314, 8315. The sons of Israel and Judah to be one nation, and have one king, denotes the church as to good and truth, 2547; thus, the celestial and spiritual made one, ill. 3969. The sceptre not to be removed from Judah, nor the legislator from between his feet, until Shiloh come, denotes the influx of the human divine, by the celestial kingdom, and the truths by which it flowed into externals, to be the medium until the human was assumed and made divine, 637 1 — 6373, ill, 6i27 and citations, 6435, compare 8625, 8626. The sons of Israel to be a kingdom of priests and a nation holy to Jehovah, denotes the Lord's spiritual kingdom with the difference of those who are in good and thence in truth, and those who are in truth and thence in good, 8771. The nations of them that are saved walking in the light of Jerusalem, and the kings of the earth bringing their glory and honour into it, denotes the accession of all who are in the goods and truths of faith, 2015, 9405. Kings and princes to enter by the gates of the city, denotes divine truths and the primary truths of faith which are to be imbued, 2015, 5044, 10,360.

The king and the princes of Zion among the nations (exiled), denotes truth and all lost, so that nothing remains of the doctrine of faith, 2015. Kings from the east denotes truths of faith proceeding from the good of love, 2015.

That Pharoah king of Egypt denotes the scientific principle in common, or the natural man, 6015, 6145, 6147, 6651 ; and the same perverted, 6651, 6679, 6683, 7220, 7228, 8142.

The Kingdom of God, in the universal sense, denotes the whole heaven, in a less universal sense the Lord's true church, and in par- ticular every one who is regenerated by the life of faith, sh. 29. The kingdom of the Lord is in man when he comes into the order of heaven, which order is ill. 911; and that the universe is filled with its repre- sentatives, 2758, 2993, 2994, 2999, 3000, 3483, 5116, 5136, 9280, 10,178; which representatives have reference to the human form, 9496. The kingdom of the Lord consists in mutual love, and its fe- licity, ?7/. 916, 1416; what peace prevails in his kingdom, 1726; and how immense it is, 1810. The kingdom of the Lord, when the celestial things of love are treated of is called the kingdom of priests, and when spiritual things are treated of, the kingdom of kings, 1416, ill, 1728; see below, 3969. The kingdom of the Lord was the same in earth as in heaven when the ancient church existed in Asia, for at that time, howsoever they differed in regard to doctrinals and rituals, they were one by charity, 2385 ; that the spiritual kingdom is various in these respects both in heaven and earth, and still one by charity, 3267. The advent of the Lord and his kingdom is compared to the morning Hght, ill, and sh. 2405 ; and that the spiritual really receive light from him, 6427, 9684. The Lord's kingdom in the world consists of all who are in good, who make one notwithstanding their wide separation from one another, as all in heaven make one man, 2853, ill. 7396.

The Lord's kingdom consists in the holy internals of the Word, and thus of all doctrine and worship, which are, the Lord's divine human, love to the Lord and love to the neighbour, 3454 ; what charity or love to the neigh- bour which makes the Lord's kingdom consists in, 3776. The kingdom of the Lord with man begins from the life, which is of works, and when man is regenerated and the kingdom of heaven is in him, it also terminates in works, 3934. The Lord's kingdom is with those in whom truth has passed into the will and into action, thus who have 474 KIS KNO 475 become internal, 5826. The kingdom of heaven consists in good and truth, which make heaven with man, when he is willing to part from the evils and falses of his proprium, 5886. Every one is in the Lord's kingdom who lives in the good of charity and the truth of faith, cita- tions concerning the representation of the Lord's church or kingdom, by the Israelites, 6637, briefly 8036; and that he who loves his country in this world, loves the Lord's kingdom in the other life, 6821. The Lord's kingship is the divine spiritual principle or divine truth, his spiritual kingdom the good of faith which is charity, and his priesthood divine good, 3969 end. The Lord's kingdom or pro- vidence is most universal and most particular, and is not properly re- presented by the general functions of a king, but by the whole king- ship as exercised through his agents, 6482. The Lord's kingdom on earth conjoined to his kingdom in heaven is the communion of all the good, whether in the church or out of it ; how fair the representation of empires, kingdoms, and societies, would appear to the perception of the angels if good prevailed, 7396. The Lord's kingdom is heaven and the church taken together, 10,357, UL 10,367. The Lord's kingdom or universal heaven is distinguished into two, called the celes- tial and spiritual, 3887, 3888, 4138, ill, 5922, ill. 6435. These two universal kingdoms are represented by the heart and the lungs, 3887, 4931 ; by Joseph and Judah, 3969 ; by the kingship and priesthood, 8625, 8770, 8771 ; by the construction of the tabernacle, 9457, 9481, 9485, 9741, 10,022; and by the holy things contained in it, 9543. The celestial kingdom alone is represented by Judah, 6363, 6366, 6371—6373; the spiritual by Ishmaei, 2671 ; by Israel, 4/63, 9340; and by Joseph, 6435 ; the division of the two kingdoms, by the Israel- ites taken from Saul, 9325. The spiritual kingdom is represented by the clothing of Aaron, 9814, 9825, 9835; and its illumination from the divine human, by the candelabrum, 9684, compare 6427. Generally, the Lord's kingdom is signified by Canaan, 3703, 4763; and by the new Jerusalem and its prince, 3858, 4434 end, 5022, 5044 end. Jehovah shall reign for ever, was a customary form of speaking in the ancient churches when it was well with them by reason of truth and good ; hence it denotes the state in which all things are from him, and the acknowledgment of the Lord as God and Lord of heaven and earth, 8331.

KISS, to \o9culari], signifies to be united and conjoined from affec- tion ; the case of Jacob when Isaac blessed him, 3573, 3574 ; the case of Jacob and Rachel, 3800 ; the case of Laban and his children, 4215 ; the case of Joseph and Israel, 6501 ; the case of Aaron and Moses, 7057; the case of Moses and his father-in-law, 8664. Embracing denotes affection in common; kissing, the initiation which precedes conjunction from affection, 3807—3809. He ran to him, and embraced him, and kissed him, and led him to his house, denotes the similarity which conjoins, affection therefrom, initiation, and finally conjunction ; the case of Jacob and Laban, 3806—3809. He ran to him, and em- braced him, and fell upon his neck, and kissed him, denotes the con- ^ ' junction of love growing more strong and interior : the case of Esau and Jacob, 4351 — 4353. He kissed them and embraced them denotes conjunction from the affection of truth and from the affection of good ; the case of Israel and the sons of Joseph, and that a stronger and more interior affection is denoted by embracing than by kissing, 6260, 6261. To kiss signifies conjunction, because all the gestures and acts of the body are the corresponding expressions of internal thoughts and affections, 421.5, 6261; and that it signifies hypocrisy and deceit, be- cause the affections may be simulated, 4215. Laban's not kissing his sons and daughters when Jacob left him, denotes that there was no longer any conjunction between them, 4139; that his kissing them afterwards denotes acknowledgment, 4215. Joseph kissing his brethren denotes adjunction from grace, because predicated of the external church, between which and the celestial internal there is no correspondence, 5929. The people of Pharaoh to kiss upon the mouth of Joseph, denotes acknowledgment and obedience, 5311. Kiss the son lest he be angry denotes conjunction with the divine human by the faith of love, thus worship; the opposite by kissing the calves and kissing Baal, 3574. KITCHEN, a, and two women in it, seen by the author as part of a representation showing the state of Christendom, 2125. KITTHIM. See Elishah. KNEADING TROUGHS [mactrcE^ denote the delights of the affections, or the delights of the lusts in the external natural ; and this because they are vessels in which dough is prepared for bread ; ovens the same but more interiorly, 7356 ; their being wrapped up with the clothes of the Israelites when they left Egypt, denotes the truths with which they adhere, 7967. The baking of bread denotes purification, 2342, 8496 ; baker, the external sensual part subject to the will, ill, 5078, 5082. KNEES [genua]. The feet correspond to things natural, the thighs to things celestial, the knees to their conjunction, 10,379. The knees or thighs denote those things which are of conjugial love, thus which relate to the conjunction of the truth of faith and the good of love, 3915. To bend the knees is a representative sign of adoration, because the joints of the knees are in the confines or intermediates, where the spiritual is conjoined to the natural, 5323 ; hence also the knees signify the influx and communication of spiritual things with natural, 5328. To cause to bend the knees signifies to dispose to what is holy, 3054. To bear upon the knees (in childbirth) signifies the acknowledgment of the affection of interior truth, leading to conjunction, 3915; compare 6585. KNIFE [culler]. The knife used for sacrifices denotes the truth of faith ; also that which was made of stone for circumcision, sh, 2799 ; as to the latter, 2039 end, 2046, 7044, 7918, 9088. Instead of knives, swords or little swords are generally mentioned in the Word, and this on account of wicked spirits, called spirits of the knife (cultrarii), 2799 end. Swords and knives have a similar signification, but a sword excites the idea of truth combating, 2799 end. The excitement of ideas illustrated by another example, 2039; and the hell of those under the buttocks who seem to smite each other with knives, briefly described, 818. See Sword. KNOCK, to [pukare], A comparison of those who only dispute 476 KNO about truths, with such as never go beyond knocking at the door of a magnificent palace, 3428. The case of those who are described as knocking for admittance into the kingdom of heaven, 2130, 4635 — 4638. See Judgment. KNOW, to [scirely is the first condition of regeneration, to acknow- ledge the second, and to have faith the third, ill, 896, 5280, 5376, 5664^, 8772; from experience, 4319. To know signifies to will, 5519. To know is predicated of the truth apperceived notwithstanding the appearance, 6294 ; the three words, coffnoscere, nossCy and scire (to know) used in one passage, 2230. See Knowledges, Science. KNOW, to [nossely evils and falses it is necessary that they be excited, 1 740 ; and nothing can be excited in man but what moves the sense, 4733. To be as God, knowing good and evil, is to be led by self and the world, 204—206. To know is predicated of the truth seen and acknowledged, 2230 ; not to know, of alienation from the truth, 6652, 7097; and of deficient perception, 10,691. They who are not in the good of Hfe cannot know what is good and true, 3612, and the contrary, 3983. The truth is known to man from doctrine, but hardly one among myriads believes, ill. 3812. See also next article, 4869, 6853, 4638, 2826, and see Known. KNOW, OR Take Cognizance, to [cognoscere], denotes the assurance that it is so (scire) thus, that it is the truth according to the series of things, 2230; compare 6294. To be known denotes to be apperceived, 5280, 7209, 7444; nosse, to know, used in the same sense, 4869; scircj to know, used in the same sense, 7444. To know, when predicated of God, denotes to foresee and to provide, for we cannot say that God takes cognizance of things (cognoscat)y inasmuch as he knows all things of himself, 5309, 10,562; nosse, to know, predicated of God and explained in the same sense, 6853, 10,562. To be known to God denotes charity given to man because it is by charity that the Lord can be present with him ; hence to be known to God is to be in charity, and not to be known to be in evil, 6806; the parable of the ten virgins, and the words, **I know you not" (nosse), further ex. in this sense, 4638. To stand to know (in the sense of watching) denotes advertence, 6727. To know that Jehovah is God denotes the apper- ception that the Lord alone is the Lord of heaven and of the universe, thus that he is the only God of the church, 7209, 7401, 7444, 7544, 7598, 7636, 8449; see below, 10,155. To know Jehovah, predicated of the evil, denotes their fear of the divine power, ill. 7280, 7281 ; compare 2826. To know, understood of Jehovah's giving man to know, denotes revelation, 8426, 10,569. To know, when said of the intel- lectual part of man, denotes to understand, when said of the intellectual and the voluntary part together it is to believe, and when said of the voluntary part, to perceive ; hence, in its proper sense, to know denotes to perceive from good, and to know that Jehovah is God is to perceive that all good and truth are from him, ill. and sh. 10,155. To know, in the sense of conjunction, 338, 400, 2362, 3081, 4914; and that nosscy to know, when predicated of the Divine, denotes its being united with the human, 2826. KNOWLEDGES [cognitiones']. Knowledges which regard faith are called knowledges of spiritual things ; those which regard love, knowledges of celestial things, 1203 end. Knowledges are celestial KNO 477 and spiritual truths, which are so many radiations of light in heaven, and are visibly manifested as light, 1458. Knowledges open the way to the view of celestial and spiritual things, for they are the vessels into which these flow, 1458 end; ill. 1461. Knowledges never come during boyhood by the interior way, but are acquired through the medium of the senses, and are implanted in the memory according to the influx of the internal, 1460. Knowledges derived from the Word are the means by which the external man can be reduced to correspondence and con- cordance with the internal ; that the Lord in his boyhood desired no other knowledges than those of the Word, 1461. Scientifics and know- ledges are not truths, but the vessels in which truth can be received ; with the Lord such vessels were formed, or rather opened, by know- ledges from the Word, into which there was an influx of celestial things, and in these again of divine, 1469; ill. 1616. The end of all know- ledge is that man may become rational, and by degrees, spiritual and celestial, thus that the external and the internal may become one in use ; that the angels esteem their surpassing knowledge of no value in comparison with use, 1472; and as nothing compared with what they do not know, 1557. By knowledges common and obscure ideas are made distinct, and hereby the diflTerence between heavenly and worldly things comes to be discerned ; the more distinct these ideas are, the more easily may worldly things be separated, 1557, 1561. The Lord's external man or human essence was conjoined to the internal by degrees, according to the multiplication and fructification of knowledges; and the influx of the internal into the external was continual, and as fast as these knowledges were acquired ; that it is not so with man, 1616. The interiors are formed by knowledges, thus no one can have percep- tion except by knowing and believing, for common knowledges are the vessels into which more and more particular or interior knowledges are insinuated, 1802. Knowledges of good are truths as well as knowledges of truth ; but the rational man is formed especially by knowledges of truth, in which the aff'ection of good is contained, 2072 ; see below, 3680. The spiritual have knowledges, but the celestial perceptions, and it is the spiritual who are called stars, which signify knowledges, 2849. Knowledges are the truths which are first learnt, as in child- hood ; that they are not truths in themselves, but that they become truths when the divine truth shines within them, and in the meantime are as common vessels by which and in which truths may be received, 3676. All truths are really knowledges of good because they are not truths unless good is in them as their end ; they are called knowledges of truth so far as they regard doctrine, 3680; see below, 9780. Know- ledges, doctrinals and scientifics are thus distinguished ; doctrinals are from the Word, knowledges partake of doctrinals on the one hand and of scientifics on the other, and scientifics are from experience, whether one's own or others, 6386; see below, 9945. Knowledges are for uses, to which they are only instrumental ; how the spirits of Mercury de- light in knowledges without regard to use, 6815; the relation of all truth and of all that is false to use, ill. 9297 end; and the knowledges that are not conducive to use, ill. by the cinders or ashes of the altar, 9723. The scientifics or knowledges of good and truth which are in the external memory make a field of objects, from which the internal man elects those which correspond to his good, and thereby perfects it ; having served to this use, they vanish from the memory and become 478 KNO of the life, ill 9723. The knowledge of good is in doing the truth known from the Word, which thus becomes of the life, and is known in Its proper quality, ilL and sh. 9780. Knowledges of good and truth are interior scientifics, such as are those of the church concerning faith and love ; by these knowledges and their affections all things in the spiritual world are held in counection, 9945. Knowledges of good and truth are spiritual riches, and they are given to all men alike in the proportion that they attribute everything good and true to the Lord whereby the internal man is opened, and they come into innocence, ill. and sh. 10,227. He m whom the internal man is opened is in the internal sense of the Word, and he is also illustrated when he reads it but according to the light he has from the knowledges acquired by him' 10 400 end, and citations. That it is a law of order for good spirits and angehc spirits to be remitted into their external, and in that state to be imbued with fresh knowledges, when they decline into any state of the love of self, 3693. J' ^ Worship made external, by those who have knowledges of interior things, denoted by Nimrod begotten of Kush, 1176. Exterior know- ledgers of spiritual and celestial things with those who are in external worship only, denoted by Zidon and Heth begotten of Canaan ; and hence the signification of Tyre and Zidon, 1201—1203, 6386 Pro- gress towards intelligence by knowledges imbued in the external man denoted by Abram's journeying towards the south, 1458. The penury "VApT^f^F^ '"^^H^ ^''*^'''''^ ""^^ ^^"^^^^ ^y a famine in the land, */. 140U, 14t)4; and the opposite by abundance of provision, 5276, 5280 instruction m knowledges from the Word denoted by Abram's descent mto Egypt, and his sojourning there, 1461, 1463, 1472; and that Egypt IS the science of knowledges from the Word when the Lord is treated of, but science in general when man is understood, 1462. The lust of knowing the truth for the sake of knowledge only, and not of the celestial life pertaining to it, denoted by the fear of Abram that the J!.gyptians would slay him and take his wife, 1471—1474 Affec- tions of good and truth not contaminated by falses denoted by the daughters of Lot, that they had not known a man, 2362; the same predicated of Rebecca, 3081; and that false conceptions are signified by the man knowing his wife and Cain knowing his wife, 338 400 See Marriage The multitude of knowledges of good and truJh and the multitude of scientifics, denoted by the seed of Abraham to be as the stars of heaven and the sand of the sea shore, 2849, 2850 The mtenor and exterior knowledges of the church about to be resuscitated denoted by all the trees in the field and in the border round about, which Abraham bought for a burial place, 2972, 2973 ; and that trees signify knowledges and perceptions, according as they are predicated of the spiritual or the celestial man, 4013. The extension of the hea- venly marriage of good and truth, or the cohabitation of the truths of faith with the knowledges of good and truth, denoted by the border of Zebulon reaching to Zidon, 6383-6386; that knowledges of good and truth are signified by Aram or Syria, 1232, 1234, 3249, 3676; by Padan-Aram, 3664, 3680; and by Bethel, the house of God, because the divme m the ultimate of order dwells in knowledges, 4539 See SCIENTIFICS, Science, Doctrine, Good (14, 21) Truth KNOWN [wo/i/^]. That is said to be known or attested to man which passes from the will into the light of the understanding, 9071 LAB 479 9095.

Good represented by Laban is not done much from the pro- ShqT ' nA' *h°se.who are in it are easily led either to good or evil. fn^L .P°? represented in the line of Abraham is good which flows n directly from the Lord; that represented by Laban and called col- lateral or middle good, does not flow in directly, but derives much iZnT ^ !^"^' 7^]^\ ^PP'^' ^' S°°^> '*^^- ^l'^^. Generally, Eaban denotes the good of the external or natural man, 3129, 3130 480 LAB 3160, 3612, 3665, 3691, 3778, 4112, 4189; which is serviceable to the good of truth while man is becoming spiritual, as denoted by Jacob, 3974, 3982, 3986, 4063 ; and which resembles the provision in imma- ture fruits for the introduction of the juice, 3982. After the separation of Jacob, Laban, there called the Aramaean, denotes good in which there is not divine good and truth, 4112, 4125; thus, not middle good, but still collateral good, or the good of works with the Gentiles as at first, 4189, 4206, 4214. See Good (6). The part of Laban in the history of Isaac and Rebecca, denotes the affection of good in the natural man serving to the initiation and conjunction of truth with good in the rational ; the subject in ceneral, 3012, 3030, 3086, 3125, 3129 and sequel. His running out of doors to the man at the fountain when told of his coming by Rebecca, de- notes the animus of the affection of good towards truth, and lience illustration, 3131, 3138; the man's standing without, that illustration IS at first remote, 3141. His telling the man that the house was pre- pared for him, and the man's entrance into the house, denotes the state of the natural man replete with goods, and the influx of truth into such good, 3142, 3144. His ungirding the camels and giving them straw and provender, denotes the state of freedom in which all that serves the spiritual man is now placed, and instruction in truths and goods, 3143—3146. His bringing water to wash the feet of his guest, and of the men that were with him, and giving them to eat de- notes purification, and the desire to conjunction and appropriation, 3147—3149; which only takes place however after due illustration, 3150, 3151, 3168. His hearing the message from Abraham, and his consent along with Bethuel to the espousal of Rebecca, denotes the reception and acknowledgment of truth flowing in, first by good, and this from a state of freedom, 3154—3161; but particularly, 3160. The part of Laban in the history of Jacob, denotes the aff'ection of external or corporeal good in which the life of truth is exercised, and the natural man imbued with genuine affections, and with acquisitions of good and truth, 3612—3615. 3656, 3657, 3665, 3668, 3674, 3676. 3680-3683, 3691, 3758, 3776-3780. His running out to Jacob when told of his coming by Rachel, and embracing him, and kissing him, and leading him to his house, denotes the affinity between col- lateral good and natural good, and hence acknowledgment, agreement, afl'ection, initiation, and conjunction, 3805—3810. Laban's agreeing to give him Rachel in consideration of seven years' service, denotes the medium of conjunction by the aflcction of interior truth, and the study and holy state of life necessary to acquire such affection, 3824 3826. His giving him Leah instead of Rachel, and then giving him Rachel for other seven years' service, denotes the conjunction of ex- tenor truth first, notwithstanding the desire for interior truths, and the further study and holy state of life necessary to acquire the latter 3834 3843, 3845—3848, 3852. His giving his maid Zilpah to Leah for a handmaid, and his maid Bilhah to Rachel, denotes the natural and corporeal affections derived from common good, serving as bonds to effect the desired conjunction, namely, of interior and exterior truth, signified by Rachel and Leah, with the good signified by Jacob. 3835, 3849, 3913, 3917, 3919, 3925, 3931-3933, 3937. Laban blessed on account of Jacob, denotes the communication of divine good when LAB 481 serving the good of natural truth, and by conjunction therewith, 3981, 3986. Laban's endeavour to retain him, and his consenting to the conditions named by Jacob, denotes the desire to attribute the good of truth to the good represented by Laban, and the latter still serving as a medium on this account, 3982, 3989, 3990, 4004. Laban's flock made to bring forth the kind of cattle stipulated by Jacob, and the latter growing rich by his artifice, denotes the disposition of the mind when good can flow into the affections, and the increase of interior goods and truths elevated from exterior, 4013—4038; briefly, 3903. Jacob's separation from Laban, his setting his sons and his wives upon camels, and fleeing away with all his acquisitions towards Canaan, to his father Isaac, denotes the natural man as he becomes regenerate relinquishing woridly and corporeal ends, and the elevation of truths and their affections to conjunction with the rational, 4063, 4102 4108, 4110. His stealing away at the time when Laban went to shear his flock, denotes the separation of the spirits represented by Laban from the regenerate man, by being remitted into their own good, 4110. Rachel's stealing away the Teraphim from her father Laban, denotes the withdrawal of truths from that good, because they do not belong to it in its state of separation, but to the affection of truth, 4111, 4146, eV/. 4149. Laban's pursuit of Jacob and the circumstances attending it, denotes the state of separation as viewed from the pro- prium, its unwillingness to relinquish divine good, and the affections of truth, &c., as its own, 4122, 4132—4144, ill. 4145, 4151, 4162 4166, 4184—4187. His searching in the tent of Jacob and in the tent of Leah, and in the tent of the two handmaids, for the Teraphim and not finding them, denotes that such truths are not with the ex- ternal affections, 4153. The Teraphim hidden by Rachel in the straw of the camels, and his not finding them in her tent, denotes their concealment in the interiors of scientifics with the affection of interior truth, and that they cannot be ascribed to that good, 4156 4162. Jacob's wrath with Laban and his demanding what he had found of all the vessels of his house, denotes the zeal of the natural man and that he had no truths from the proprium but all given to him, 4165, 4166. Laban's claiming his daughters and their children and all the cattle as his own, and lamenting that they were out of his power, de- notes the perception from the obscure state of the proprium that all the affections of truth and all truths and goods are its own, and its not daring to vindicate them, 4183—4187. His covenant, in conclusion, with Jacob, and friendly separation from him, denotes the conjunction of the divine natural with the Gentiles, though not by the spiritual affections, yet, by the good of works, 4189 and sequel. LABOUR, denotes temptation combats, 5352, 8670. When sen- sual things are shunned, evil spirits begin to fight, and the angels to labour in man, hence the pain and anguish of thought conceiving truth, 263, 270. They who are tempted labour against falses and evils, and the angels labour with them to keep them in faith, 8670, 8893. To labour is to do all that is needful for the spiritual life, and the Lord is said to labour before man is regenerated, because he fights for him in temptations; the commandment ex, 8888—8893, 9431, 10,360, 10,667, 10,668. Work and labour denote inquiry into truth and endeavour to do good from the proprium ; the labour of our hands I I F 482 LAM ex. 531. The spiritual life labours when truths seem deficient, in con- sequence of man's declining into his proprium, G119. The men of Sodom labouring to find the door, denotes the inability of those who are in evil to see any truth that leads to good, 2385. The Egyptians labouring to drink the waters of the river, denotes the unwillingness of those who are in falses to be instructed, 7320. The expiation for a man found slain to be made by a heifer which has not laboured nor drawn in the yoke, denotes the good of the natural man accepted for the good of the church extinguished in ignorance, provided it has not attracted to itself the falses of faith and the evils of love, by the service of the lusts, 9262.

LADDER, ff, \8cala\ denotes communication, and this, of the lowest truth and its good with the highest ; its head denotes heaven, by which communication is made with the divine, 3699—3701. See Jacob (3). The ascent from the first or lowest degree of regeneration to the highest, as by a ladder, is also denoted by the successive births of the sons of Jacob, 3882 ; see the illustration of ascent to more in- terior doctrinals according to the life, 3690, 3691, 3923, 5147. There are degrees like the steps of a ladder which unite the intellectual with the sensual part of man, and by which he is enabled to ascend from the light of the world into the light of heaven, ill, 5114. There are similar degrees also in the voluntary part ; and such degrees are formed by affections which close-in and terminate the influx of good ; the for- mation of such planes of influx becomes manifest by perceptions of good and truth, and by conscience, ill, 5144—5147. No one can ascend to a more interior heaven or to a light higher than the good in which he is principled, without discovering his latent evils ; ill. by the command that they should not go up by steps to the altar lest the nakedness of the priest should be seen, 8945, 8946. LAKE \lacu8\. Waters gathered together, and lakes, denote in the complex knowledges by which intelligence is acquired, ih. 7324. LAKE, Pond, or Pool \stagmim\. Ponds or pools are used in the same sense as lakes or congregated waters, 7324. Lakes or ponds denote the knowledges of good and truth by which intelligence is pro- cured, and when the Egyptians are treated of, scientifics, *A. 7324. A pool of waters in the desert denotes knowledges of good and truth, and thence intelligence, where before was not any, 7324. In the opposite sense, ponds or lakes denote insanities ; and hence, the lake burning with fire and brimstone denotes hell, 7324 ; description of a lake in hell, and the horrid inhabitants of its shores, 819; and of a certain muddy lake where spirits undergo punishment, 956. The many breaches of the city of David, and the waters of the lower fish- pool gathered together, denote the falses of doctrine, and the traditions by which infractions were made in the truths of the Word, 4926. LAMB \agnus\. See Sheep. LAME, or Halt \claudus\. The lame and the blind denote those LAM 483 who regard goods as evils, and truths as falses, because from the pro- prium, 210. To halt is to be in good in which are as yet no genuine truths, but still common truths not discordant therewith, and into which genuine truths can be insinuated ; thus, the lame denote those who are in good, but not genuine, because they are in ignorance of truth, in which good the Gentiles are who live in mutual charity, sh. 4302. In the opposite sense, the lame denote those who are in no good, and hence in no truth, sh. 4302. The lame or halt, and halting, are ex- pressed in the original Hebrew by different words ; the signification of both, ex. 4302 end. Jacob's halting on his thigh, denotes the state in which celestial spiritual good cannot flow-in for want of the order among truths to receive it, 4302 ; in the internal historical sense, that goods and truths were jitterly destroyed with his posterity, 4314. The lame shall leap as a hart, is predicated of those who are in good, but not yet genuine, 6413. The lame, or such as support themselves with a staff, denote those in whom all good has perished, 9014. LAMECH, was a sixth heretical church in the line of Cain, which -was utterly without faith, 405 ; hence, it denotes vastation, 406, 427, 428. The new church always raised up when the former is vastated, is denoted by Adah and Zillah, the wives of Lamech, 409 ; and is de- scribed by their sons, Jabal, Jubal, and Tubal-Cain, 333. Jabal de- notes the holy things of love, which are celestial, and good thence • derived in the new church, 413—416; Jubal, the truths and goods of faith which are spiritual, 417— 420 ; Tubal-Cain, good and truth in works, which are natural, 421—426. Natural good and truth with those out of the church, in this case, are denoted by Naamah, the sister of Tubal-Cain, 421. The new faith of the church producing charity is denoted by Seth, 436, 437 ; and the church, when charity has become principal, by his son Enos, the human spiritual man, 439, 7120. The quahtyof this church described from experience, 1125. As to Lamech of the other line, with whom the Adamic church ex- pired. See Seth. LAMENTATION. Description of the miserable lamentations heard by the author in hell, 699 ; and that the glorying of infernal spirits is changed into lamentations when the Lord comes, 8289. How lamentable the state of the hells is from the mutual hatred of evil spirits, 7773. See Terror. The lamentation of David over Saul, treats concerning the doctrine of truth combating against the falses of evil, the particulars ex. 10,540. LAMPS [lampades], with candles or lights, signify truths which are lucent from good ; description of a garden represented in the other life full of lamps and Hghts, 7072. Lamps signify spiritual things in which are celestial, thus truths in which good is contained, faith in which there is charity, and charity in which is love to the Lord ; the parable of the ten virgins ex, 4638, compare 3079 end, 7778 end. Lamps of fire signify affections of truth from good ; explanation of the throne seen in heaven by the Revelator, 5313. A candlestick denotes the spiritual heaven, and candles or lights denote faith, with the in- telligence of truth and the wisdom of good from the Lord alone, ill. and sh, 9548, briefly ill. 9783. The church is called a candlestick be- cause of illumination from divine truth, 9548. The candlestick of the tabernacle was of solid gold, because divine truth or the illumination I I 2 484 LAN of the spiritual, is from divine good by the medium of the celestial, 9549, 9550 ; its seven lights (lucernce) denote the sanctity of such truth. 9569. The candlestick was set over against the tabernacle to the south, because in the south of heaven divine truth is in its light, ill, and passages cited, 9684. The lamps or lights arranged from the evening until the morning (made to burn always) denotes the influx of good and truth from the Lord perpetual in every state, 9782 — 9/87, 10,201, 10,202. The light of a lamp or lantern (lucerna) to shine no more in Babylon, denotes no longer any intelligence of truth, 4335. See Light. LANCE, they of Joshua stretched out, signifies divine potency, 878. See Joshua, Hand. Little swords or daggers, lances and knives, signify truth, and all arms mentioned in the Word, such things as are of spiritual combat, 2799 end. See Knife, Sword. LAND, OR Earth \_terra\. See Earth. LANGUAGE, Speech [lingua y loquela], I, Corres})ondence of ihe Tongue, ^c. The tongue denotes opinions, thus, principles and persuasions, because the motion of the tongue is from the influx of thought, 1159, 1215. 1216. Tongues denote differences of faith, 1251. The opinions of spirits concerning truths flow into the tongue, 1159, 4791. The parts of the face correspond to things of affection according to their functions and uses, as the eyes to the understanding of truth, the nostrils to perception, and the parts of the mouth — the lips, the tongue, &c. — to such things as belong to the enunciation of truth, 9049 end; seriatim passages concerning the correspondence of the taste, the tongue, and the face with the grand man, 4791 — 4805. The tongue is as the entrance court to spiritual and celestial things ; to the former, because it ministers to the lungs and to speech ; to the latter, because it ministers to the stomach from which the blood and the heart draw their supplies, 4791 — 4795; compare 8910. The tongue, in general, corresponds to the affection of truth, and to the affection of good from truth, into which the former advances, 4791. They who love the Word of the Lord, and desire the knowledges of good and truth, are in the province of the tongue but with a difference ; some being in the tongue itself, others in the larynx and trachea, others in the throat, the gums, the lips, &c., 4791 ; certain spirits described who do violence to the tongue, 4801. The tongue serves both for nourish- ment and speech, because it corresponds to the affection of knowing, and also to the affection of thinking and of producing what is thought, 4795 ; that it is formed to this double office by correspondence with the outward world, 6057; and that the mouth, the lips, the tongue, &c., correspond to thought; the heart, to affection, 8910. The spirits who correspond, to the mouth are in the love of talking, but it is a general law that spirits are continually perfected and carried to- wards the interiors of their provinces ; when these spirits are perfected they are reduced to speak nothing but what has some good in it, 4803. From the mouth and from the heart, denote from the understanding and from the will, also from truth and good, 3313, 8068. The mouth signifies voice or utterance, of which hearing is predicated ; the tongue, speech, of which perception is predicated ; and this, because the mouth is the organ of the voice, and the tongue the organ of speech, 6985, iU. 6987, 9049. The mouth and the lips correspond to interior speech. LAN 485 which is active or speaking thought, and is the immediate cause of ex- terior speech, ill, 6987. See Mouth, Taste, Food. 2. The origin and nature of Human Speech. There are two memo- ries belonging to man, the one interior, the other exterior, 2469 — 2494, 7398. The things of the interior memory are truths, and are in spiritual light, those of the exterior memory are scientifics, and are in natural light, 5212. It is from the interior memory that man has the capacity of thinking and speaking intellectually and rationally, 9394. From the interior memory man is in the universal language of ideas, and from the exterior memory he is in the language of expres- sions ; thus, he speaks from the exterior memory so long as he is in the world, 1639, 2472, 2476. The ideas of the interior memory flow into the things of the exterior as into their vessels, thus into the words of all languages, and all the objects of the external senses, 2470, 2471, ill. 9394. Thought and speech exist from the ideas of the interior memory, and these ideas constitute a universal language, which is spoken by all men after the death of the body, 2472, 5614, 5648, 6987, 10,298, 10,604. The words of human language are from ideas which are formed from the light of the world, 4609, 5212; such words therefore were not immediately infused, but had to be found and aj)plicd to things, in the course of time, 8249 end. There are many things from the spiritual world in languages and expressions, be- cause the origin of words is the universal language which belongs to the internal man and is spoken in society with spirits, 4624, 5075 ; compare 3693, 8990 ; also, that the thought of the internal man agrees with angelic thought and speech, even while man is in the body, and though he is ignorant of it, 4004. The faculty of speaking in the angelic language, and thus of illustrating his discourse by representa- tives, is inwardly in man, and he is born into the natural use of it after the death of the body, 3326, 3342—3345 ; see below (3). Such is the connection between natural speech and thought and spiritual, that the former is changed into the latter as it ascends, and the latter closes into the former when it descends, ill. 5492 ; see below, 3342. Speech is not of the tongue or the external man, but it is thought itself speaking by those organs, ill. 3679. It appears as if the words of speech were in the thought, but really it is only the sense of speech which puts on a form of words when it flows down into the correspond- ing organs, 6987. The thought of man is both passive and active, and this latter may be called thought speaking, which is similar to the speech of spirits, because without expressions of human language, 6987; see below, 8128. Man may know that his intellectual or imma- terial ideas are not from the words of speech from this circumstance, that he can think in a moment what it would take an hour to express, 5615, 6987; but that all speech perceived by the ear, as it ascends to- wards the interiors, passes into ideas like visual images, and from these into intellectual, 3342. The ideas of interior thought in man are above material things, but still they are terminated in them, and where they are terminated there they appear to be ; how impossible it is for man to understand anything without some idea from time and space, and hence how incomprehensible angelic speech must be to him, 7381. Thought grounded in perception is internal speech, and external speech corresponds to it, because the one flows into the other, 8128. The 486 LAN speech of the men of the most ancient church was not by expressions of sound, because they respired internally, but by the face and lips ; that they could express more within a minute by this language than can be expressed in hours of time by articulate words, 607, 1118. Speech by external respiration commenced, and thus articulate words came into use when perception no longer existed, 607, 608, 1120; ill. 805, par- ticularly 1118—1120, 7361. The organ of hearing was affected by the speech of the most ancient people through the eustachian tube in- stead of the external ear, 1118; and this by the internal respiration, 7361; see below (5), 10,587. The internal respiration of this primi- tive people flowed tacitly into a kind of external respiration, and thus into a tacit speech which was perceived by others in the interior man, 1119. The first speech of man in every earth has been by the face and lips, like that of the most ancient people in this world ; this manner of speaking agrees with the speech of angels, and far surpasses the language of words, 8249. Speech by the face has obtained first be- cause the face is formed to the effigy of the thought and will, and, in the earliest times, men had no thought or will which they wished to conceal, 8249; that in this manner of speech the looks and their changes manifest affections, and the variations of interior form, thoughts, 8248. Internal speech prevailed so long as men remained sincere and upright, but when self-love prevailed the language of words commenced, the face was gradually changed, the interiors became con- tracted, and the exteriors were prepared to dissimulate ; but that all are reduced to speak as they think in the other life, 8250 ; the latter point i//. 4689. The speech of man, in its origin, is the end which he in- tends it to make manifest, and the words of speech his end in ulti- mates, ilL 9407. That when he speaks, spiritual ideas are turned into natural ideas, and close in words according to correspondence, 10,604. See Idea, Memory, Thought; and see below (7), where the origin of speech is further elucidated by the signification of speaking and saying in the Word. 3. The Language of Spirits and Angels, Spirits and angels speak from the intenor memory, and as this is the language of ideas they speak one universal tongue, in whatever age they may have lived, and from whatever earth they may have come, 1637, 2472, 2476, compare 7745. Spirits discourse together with far more acuteness, subtlety, and sagacity than men, and their speech is by the ideas of the thought which IS more copious and universal than speech by the tongue, 322, 1639, 1641. The ideas of the angels from which they speak are won- derfully varied, and they can express more by the language of ideas in a moment than could be expressed in half-an-hour by man, besides much which cannot be expressed in human language at all, 1641— 1645, 4609, 7089. All thought, however continuous it appear, in coiisequeiice of the rapidity of succession, is made up of- distinct ideas, which follow one another like the words of language, and which are really the words of spirits and angels, 6599, 6624, 6987. The angels of heav-en speak from intellectual or immaterial ideas, but spirits from ideas of the imagination or material ideas, 6987, compare 8733, 8734. The speech of spirits is a gift which all enjoy immediately after death, and IS so acute, perspicacious, and persuading, that man would stand in astonishment if he could hear it, 1637, 1641; see below, 3226. LAN 487 Spirits have the power of speaking from various places and distances, according to their situation in the grand man, 1640; and they who practise magical arts from places where they are not, from various places at once, &c., 831. Spirits discourse together with the same familiarity of friendship and love as men in the world, and generally without reflecting upon the pre-eminent excellence of their language over that of men ; they are also able to illustrate their discourse by representatives manifest to the sight, 1642, 1764. The speech of an- gelic spirits is more universal and more perfect than that of spmts, and the speech of angels more universal and more perfect than that ot angelic spirits, 1642. The speech of angelic spirits is continually illus- trated by sweet and beautiful representations, which are wonderfully varied according to the influx of affection and the felicity of mutual love, 1643, and which are produced instantaneously with the ideas, 3342, 3344. The speech of angels is altogether ineffable, for it is a speech representative of ends and uses, which are the principles and essentials of things, not of ideas such as spirits and angelic spirits have, 1645. The speech of angels when it appears in the world of spirits before the interior sight is like a vibration or splendour of light, 1646, compare 3346. The speech of celestial angels is distinct from that of the spiritual angels, and still more ineffable, for they are m the very fountains and origins of the life of thought and speech, 1647; the differences more distinctly stated according to the three heavens, 3342—3345; see below, 8733. The speech of good spirits and an- gelic spirits flows as it were into rhythm, because they speak in society, 1648, 1649, 7191. Every family of spirits, and indeed every spirit is distinguished by some peculiar manner of speech, which is manifested in the affection, the accent, the sound, &c., 1758; and by their diver- sities of speech their respective qualities may be known, 1640. The quality of a spirit can be discovered from the sound of his speech alone, and even from one expression, 6616; examples, 6623 ; see below, 10,298; and that spirits are not allowed to dissimulate, 4689. The sweetness and softness of the speech of celestial spirits is from the influx of good with their ideas; the speech of the spiritual is also fluent, but not so soft and gentle, 1759. The speech of evil genii is outwardly fluent but inwardly grating, because from the simulation of good and not its affection, 1761. The speech of spirits interiorly evil is foolish and filthy, 1644. There are spirits who speak not in a flowing sound, but as it were linear, by vibrations and reciprocations more or less acute, such are they who reject the interiors of the Word and regard man as their instruments, 1761. There are spirits who only discourse by changes induced upon the face by the influx of their thoughts, 1762. There are many extraordinary kinds of speech among spirits ; by an un- dulating volume as it were flowing into the brain ; by a quadruplicate sound like the threshing of corn ; by words inwardly sonorous ; by hoarse bifid sounds; also rheumatic; and thundering, as of several together; also by visual representations, 1763, 1764. A society of spirits described whf^disagree as to their speech, but agree in thought and will; that they belong to the isthmus in the brain and the ganglia in the body, 4051, 5189. The speech of spirits being the universal language of all languages, they are not able to utter any human ex- pression, nor any human name when discoursing among themselves. 188 LAN 18/C; hence, likewise they perceive nothing in the Word according to the letter, 187(>, 2333, 4104, 42G4, 4387, 6225, 52.)3, 7089 ; sec below (0). The perception, the thought, and the speech of the celes- tial angels are ineffahle in their variety, because from the affections of the Word they form to themselves various lights of affection and per- ception rather than ideas, 2157. Men, immediately after death, come into the perception of representatives, and can express more in a mo- ment by the sense of the mind than they can in several hours whilst m the body ; this faculty is also with man while he is in the body, be- cause celestial and spiritual things flow into natural, 3220, iV/. 3342; but the speech of angels cannot be understood by him while his ideas are terminated by time and space, 7381. The speech of all the angels and of good spirits is by representatives, beautiful and full of meaning according to their degree ; the idea of such representations is in man although he is ignorant of it, and he comes into the natural use of them alter the death of the body, 2//. 3342— 3345 ; see below, 4528, 6486. Spiritual things are expressed by variations of heavenly light ; celestial things by variations of flame or of heavenly heat, whereby all the affections are moved, 3343, 3862, 8920 end ; see below, H733. Speech is made living by the representations which illustrate it, and this from the Lord's life, but with a difference according to degree, 3344. The different modes of speech in the three heavens constitute but one language, because they one form another, and are one within another, 3345. The thoughts, and consequently the modes of speech, among the angels, compared with the thoughts and speech of men, are as the interiors of forms and their action, to the exteriors of bodies, 3347. The speech of spirits is distinguished from human speech in Its inexpressible life and fulness of ideas, but it is not so in the case of corporeal spirits, 4221. The speech of angels when it passes into the world of spirits often falls into numbers, and conversely, where numbers occur in the Word the angels read of things, 4264. The speech of the angels in the superior heavens is represented by the paradisiacal scenery of the inferior heaven, how numerous and fair such paradises are, 4528, 9577. In the universal language of heaven and the spiritual world, persons are not regarded, but t/iinf/s, because the idea of a person concentrates and limits the thought, but the idea of a thmg^extends itself infinitely, 5225, ill. 5253, ill. 5287, ill. 6040; briefly, 7002, 8343, 8834; hence, that word and thing are one expres- sion in the Hebrew, 5075, 5272. The angels think of things, or truths and goods, abstractly from persons, not only for the above reason, but lest they should attribute truths and goods to persons ; also because the idea of person communicates with those who are thought about, 6040; the latter ill. 8785. The angels continually illustrate their speech when discoursing together by rej)resentatives, and it is impos- sible to express the full meaning of these in human language, 6486. Angelic speech is not intelligible to spirits, as the speech of spirits is not intelligible to men, 6987, 6996; the author's experience, 3346. Spiritual speech consists of ideas fashioned into^ords in a spiritual aura, and represented by modifications of the light of heaven, which light is nothing but divine wisdom proceeding from the Lord, 7089 ; that the greatest part of the truths of faith and goods of charity can only be seen in the light of heaven, and that they caunot be ex- LAN 489 pressed by natural language, 7131. Angelic speech is not broken into parts like human discourse, but one thing is wonderfully continued into another on account of the ineffable fulness of angelic ideas, 7191 All angelic discourse rci)resents the form of heaven, and hence every period terminates in unity, 7191; see above, 1648. The spiritual angels speak by sounds, and their thoughts must be collected from the words in which they are expressed ; the celestial angels affect the will as by a kind of wave, 8733. The speech of spirits in general is formed irom ideas of thought, which fall into words according to their fulness and affection ; m this manner the whole idea of a thing is at once com- municated, 8734. The perception, thought, and enunciation of divine truth in the superior heavens, utterly transcends the same in the in- ferior, and these again the thought 'and speech of man ; how impos- sible it IS to describe the difference in words, 8920 and citations. Spirits and angels are nothing but their own truths and goods in human form, and the quality of those truths and goods is manifest in their faces, m their gestures, and in their language, but more especially in their words, for these naturally proceed from their truths and eoods 10,298. See Spirit. ' 4. The Speech of Jngels and Spirils with Men. The ancients fre- quently discoursed with spirits and angels, and the faculty is common to all men, because man is himself a spirit clothed with a body ^7 69, 784, 1634, 1636, 7802, 8118, 9438. Speech with spirits and angels was common in antiquity, and especially in the most ancient times, because they were interior men, and thought in the spirit ab- stractly from the body ; whereas men are now exterior, and think in the body abstractly from the spirit, 9396. Men no longer hold dis- course with spirits, because they are immersed in worldly and corporeal things, but the way is opened by such things receding, 69, 784, 7802, 8118. Unless man be in a true faith, and be led by the Lord, it is perilous to speak with spirits at the present day, yet spirits are always present, and perceive the most secret thoughts of man, 784, 9438, 1 0, 75 ] . It IS with difiiculty believed that any one speaks with spirits, because the existence of spirits and angels is not really acknowledged, 1634, 1636, 7802; see below, 9438. In some earths angels and spirits appear in human form and discourse with the inhabitants, 10 751 10,752; see below (5), 7802, 7809, 8949, 10,751. The intercourse of spirits and angels and their communications with men, are by the universal language of ideas ; and such is the influx of this language that spirits discourse with man in his vernacular tongue as their own, 2470. Man is always in society with spirits, and as to his internal in their universal language, 5075,. 10,298. The speech of spirits and angels is perfectly audible, but it can only be heard by those who are addressed, because it affects the organs by an internal way, 1635, 1876, 46.52. Spirits, even infants, speak with man in his mother tongue^ or in any language known to him, without perceiving that the words are taken from the man's memory, and this, because they are in the universal language of ideas, 1637. The words they speak and which they think to be theirs are more promptly and admirably chosen than when the thought of the man himself falls into expressions, and this without premeditation, 1638. Their speech with man is by words, but their speech with one another by ideas, 1757, 1876; the latter 490 LAN only, 10,298. The speech of celestial spirits does not easily fall into articulate sounds or words with man ; but middle spirits, between the celestial and spiritual, and especially the spiritual, speak ; their speech also is in softly flowing modulations, which soften the words them- selves, 1/59. The rareness of intercourse with angels and spirits is a manifest proof how little is known and believed concerning their real existence, and the state of man as a spirit after death ; but that it is possible to speak with angels and spirits from any earth in the universe, and even with the inhabitants themselves if their interiors are opened, 943g. As to the author's discourse with spirits as one of them- selves, generally, 5, 67, 68, 322, 1634, 1635, 1763, 5978, 8939, 9440; with those who had been known to him either personally or by repute, 70, 1114, 1636, 4221, 5006 ; with some a few days after their decease, 4527, 4622, 8939 ; with those who lived in ancient times before and after the flood, 1114 ; with the angels of the first and second heaven in their own tongue, but not with the angels of the third, 3346 ; with the worst devils, without peril, 968 ; with his deceased father in a dream, 6492 ; with the spirits and angels of other earths, 6695, 6808, 8022 — 8026, 9578. And conversely, that it was granted to the spirits asso- ciated with him to see the things of this world, and to hear men con- versing, 1880, 1954, 4527, 4622, 5862, 9791, 10,813; also that a spirit known to him conversed with the inhabitants themselves of ano- ther earth, 10,752. 5. Speech with the Spirits and Inhabitants of other Worlds, Cer- tain spirits were with the author from another orb, who spake with him by changes about the lips produced by influx ; their speech with one another described, 4799; see below, 8247. The spirits of Mer- cury are averse to speaking by words, and hence the author could only speak with them by a kind of active thought, 6814 ; that they speak from the proximate use, and not from the thing itself, 10,710; see below, 10,709. The spirits of Mercury are quick and instant in speech, and they show the same promptitude in the perception and judgment of things, 6921—6923, compare 7077. The inhabitants of Mars speak tacitly by way of the eustachian tube, and thus affect the in- terior hearing and sight, 7359, 7360. The speech of the inhabitants of Mars is more perfect than ours, fuller of ideas, and approaches nearer to the language of spirits and angels ; their faces and eyes also correspond to this perfection, 7360 ; that the speech of those who were of the most ancient church in this earth was similar, 7361, 7480, 7481. Certain inhabitants and spirits of Mars, not so good, learn to speak by forming the countenance and the lips in such a way that the affec- tion does not become manifest ; these can discourse together and other spirits not understand them, 7745 — 7747. It is a common thing in the planet Jupiter for spirits and angels to discourse with the inhabit- ants, as was the case in ancient times in this earth, 7802. Spirits speak to men in the planet Jupiter, but the inhabitants are not allowed to speak in return, nor yet to dividge that they have been spoken to, 7809. The angels of Jupiter speak by the influx of ideas not faUing into words, but diff'using themselves every where through the interiors, and so into the face, commencing with the Hps, 8022. They have another mode of speech, by a more continuous influx into the face, beginning from the eyes; also another, more continuous and full. LAN 491 which IS sensated in the bram; and yet another which falls as discourse into the interior understanding only ; by all these methods they are able to discourse with the inhabitants of the planet, 8023—8026 1 he inhabitants of Jupiter speak mostly by the face, and especially by the region about the lips, because they do not simulate; hence also their faces are freely emitted from the interiors, and the lips become prominent, 8247 ; how their aff-ections are manifested by this manner of speaking, and that they have also a language of words, but not so sonorous as with us, 8248 ; see above (2), 8249, 8250. The spirits of Jupiter correspond to the imaginative principle of thought, and hence do not speak much, and when they speak it is a cogitative or thoueht- speech, not terminating sonorously but in a kind of soft murmur, 8733. When the inhabitants of Saturn come to age they have discourse with spirits by whom they are instructed, 8949. The spirits seen by the author from the moon made a noise like thunder with their voices, and this though they were only few in number, 9232. The inhabitants of the moon do not speak from the lungs like the inhabitants of other earths, but from air collected in the abdomen, and this because the atmosphere of the moon is diff-erent, 9235. The inhabitants of one ot the earths m the starry heavens, mentioned by the author, discourse with angels and spirits, 10,380; and this is common in other earths as a means of revelation, 10,384. In one of the earths of the starry heavens they discourse together by the internal way of the eustachian tube, and this by means of the atmosphere, when they only think within themselves ; in this earth they also discourse by the sight, from the hps first moving, &c., 10,587. The people of this earth are ac- quainted with sound or tone, but not with articulation ; the lips also are moved by the afllatus of the lungs as well as by the influx of ideas into their fibres, 10,587, 10,588. Their speech closes in tone which is modified by the ideas to be expressed, but yet not articulated, 10,708. When the inhabitants of this earth discourse together, they speak as high and remote as the ninth use ; this is the case with cogitative or tliought-speech generally; and there are some in the universe who speak to the fifth, ninth, fifteenth, twentieth, and even to the fiftieth use, e// 10,709. The inhabitants of another earth described by the author discourse with spirits ; in this case the spirits are remitted into their natura memory, and the interiors of the men they discourse with are at the same time opened ; thus, the spirits are mistaken for men untd they suddenly disappear, 10,751. In another earth also in the starry heavens they are instructed by angels appearing and speaking ,n qqT ^V^^"''^^^^ '*^^^ httv^e^n sleep and waking, in the morning! iu,8,5d. lor further particulars concerning the inhabitants and spirits of other earths. See Universe. 6. The Hebrew Language, and the Word. The peculiarity of tenses in the Hebrew tongue, by which one and the same form of the verb IS sometimes applicable to various times, is from the internal sense which is independent of times, and to which the Hebrew tongue is adapted, 618; see below, 5253. The superlative is formed in the Hebrew by the repetition of the same adjective, 794. There is no distinctions made by a system of punctuation or by interstitial signs in the Hebrew, because the internal sense flows from one state of a thing into another, 4987. The phrases, *itwasso' (fuit), * it came 492 LAN to pass' (factum), mark the termination of one state and the beginning of another; the less important changes of state are marked by * and, 4987, 5578; and that the Word was so written in imitation ot celes- tial language, 5578; further ill. 7191. The internal sense of the Word coincides with the universal language in which the angels are, and in which man is as to his interiors, 4387; see below, 3482. Ihe literal sense of the word is accommodated to human understanding, and written according to appearances, 3857. The forms of expression applied to the most ancient people in the Word, would not be appro- priate to those who lived afterwards ; instead of * the flame of a sword it would now be expressed * the sword of a flame,* &c., 312. Ihe lan- guage of the Word is the angelic tongue itself in ultimates, and this because the ancients had commerce with spirits and angels, and every word of the original is significant of a spiritual sense, 3482. In order that the Word might be written, all the places where the most ancient people dwelt, and all the kingdoms round about, were made representative, 5136. When the Word is read by man in the external sense, the words and ideas are wonderfully changed to the apprehen- sion of angels, and this according to correspondences, 2333, 3a0/, 5492, 5648, 7847, 10,568. Three things perish when the internal sense is elicited from the letter of the Word, namely, the idea of time, the idea of space, and the idea of person, 5253. It is by the sudden and constant translation of natural ideas into spiritual that the VVord is the medium of conjunction between angels and men, 3j0/, 5048; the wonderful fulness of ideas flowing into its external expressions illustrated bv the Lord's prayer, 6619, 6620; and the two senses fur- ther illustrated by comparison with human language and thought, 9396, 9407, 10,400, 10,604, 10,614. That there are distinct words which belong to the spiritual class, which belong to the celestial class, and which are predicated of both, and that, from a knowledge of these words, especially in the original tongue, the subject treated of m the Word maybe discovered at first sight, 8314; an example, 10,291; also, that every word, every syllable of a word, and every point m a syllable, contains some heavenly signification, 9198 end, 9349; and that the spiritual sense is the interior sense of words, which is espe- cially contained in the eastern languages, 10,217. See Word, and as to speech attributed to the Lord himself, see below (8.) The author has sometimes noted a particular election and appro- priation of Hebrew words to the internal sense ; * bituminated with bitumen; conveys the idea of protection, from to expiate or jjropitiate, 645. Spirit is denoted by the same word as wind, from influx, 842, 8286. Soul is from a word denoting the respiration, 9050. Jf;^^' beast and the living are one word, from the proprium and its vivifica- tion 908. Power and man are expressed by one word which is predi- cated of faith, 1179; see below, 6086, 6343, 7668. Valley is qualified by various words which signify more or less of profanity, 1292. House is of such wide application because it signifies the niind, which includes all things of intelligence and wisdom, and all things of aff*ection, 1488 end. JFord and thing are denoted by one expression because the aneels understand things, which are truths and goods, not words, 1785, 5075, 5225, 5253, 5272, 5287, 6040, 7002, 8343, 8834, 8985; see the same numbers above (3). Darkness iu the case given, is ex- L AN 493 pressed by a word which includes both the dense false and dense evil, 1860 end.

To inherit is ex- pressed by two words, which are respectively predicated of the celestial and the spiritual ; the former involves possession by hereditary right, the latter, succession to an inheritance, 2658. Truth and faith are the same word, and truth in the Old Testament is always used in the same sense as faith in the new, 3121, 4690. Villages and castles are expressed by the same words as courts and palaces, and in both cases they are predicated of the externals and internals of the church, 3271. To sodden or cook pottage is predicated of a congest of doctrinals, 3316. Savoury meats, from the delights and pleasures of taste, signify the delights of good and the pleasures of truth, because taste, like the other senses, has a celestial and spiritual correspondence, 3502; see above (1). The plural. Uvea, is used because there are two faculties of life, the will receptive of good, and the understanding of truth, 3623. Ladder is derived from a word which signifies a way or path, which is predicated of truth, 3699. Veneration, reverence, fear, terror, are derived from one word, 3719. Budaim (or mandrakes) is from a word signifying loves, and where it is used the conjunction of good and truth IS treated of, 3942. A staffl, a sceptre, a tribe, are denoted by one word, which signifies the power of truth from good, 3859 ; but there is also another word for stafi; 4013; and the word for a walking-staff is from a root which denotes support, 9028. A lamb is denoted by various words which signify so many degrees of innocence ; m the case given the same word denotes sheep, 3994. A lamb is also denoted by the same word as spotted or patched ; and a shepherd or herdman by the same word as speckled, 3995. Flocks, herds, and the two kinds of cattle are distinguished by appropriate words, which dis- tinctly signify spiritual things, 10,042. To grow warm with sexual heat is predicated where the conjunction of good and truth is treated ot, 4029; and the opposite expression, 4031. Acquisition and cattle are signified by the same word, which is predicated of truths when goods are denoted by flock, 4105. Sacrifices of all kinds are called gifts, and have reference to initiation into good, as gifts were for the sake of favour with the great, 4262, 10,079.

Tents or lodges, and tabernacles are expressed by different words, and they respectively denote the holy principle of truth and of good, 4391. Kesithce, the name given to certain pieces of money, is derived from a word which denotes truth, 4400. Ear-rings and nose-jewels are expressed by the same word, and the former signify obedience, the latter good, 4551. Lnvy IS expressed by a word which denotes to strive against and to chide, and it signifies aversion, 4702.

My Lord, hear me, is a^orm of speech exciting another to reflection, and it signifies the first state of reception -y.')8. The Word went out from Jehovah, or Jehovah hath spoken. I 496 LAN denotes that it was of the Lord, 31 GO. / cannot speak to thee either evil or good, meant that the speaker dared not either deny or affirni ; in the spiritual sense, it denotes acknowledgment that it is of the Lord alone, 3160. To meditate in a field, meant to think in good, 3196. To be gathered to his fathers, or to his people, was said of any one who died, from the belief of the ancients that the spirit really went to his parents and kinspeople ; in the internal sense these expressions denote the association of those who are in the same goods, and in the same truths, 3255, 4619. To smite the mother upon the sons, was a formula used by those who were acquainted with representatives and significa- tives, to denote the total destruction of the church, 4257. A man (speaking, ^c.) to his brother, was the form of expressing anything mutual, because man denotes truth and brother good, between which there is the closest mutual conjunction, 4725, 4199. The circumcised, and the uncircumcised, were common expressions to denote those who were of the church and those who were not, and they took their rise when the good and truth of the church were put in representatives, 4462. To lift up the head, was a form of judgment, whether the pri- soner was condemned to life or death ; in the latter case, it was to lift it from upon him ; the expression derives its origin from the elevation of those who have undergone vastation, &c., 5124. Bend the knee, was a command to do homage when kings went abroad in their chariots, and it represented the adoration of the divine law, of which a king was understood to be the guardian, 5323.

The swelling, or pride of Jordan, was to express the external man's elevating himself against the internal, 1585. I Jehovah, ^nd Jehovah spake and said, &c., were forms of irrevocable confirma- tion from the divine, 7192; see below (7), 629, 2620, 7036, 7933. 7. To speak and to say ; their signification. To speak and to say have distinct significations, 904 ; but they are sometimes used inter- changeably by the author, as appears from a comparison of 3029 and 3037. To say (or to speak) in the historical of the Word denotes to percei\re, because perception is internal speech, 1791, 181.5, 1822 1898, 1919, 2061, 2080, 2515, 2552, 5687. To say also denotes thought from perception, 2506, 2515, 7094, 7244, 7937; and per- ception and thought interchangeably, 2552. Speaking denotes thought, because it flows from thought and is its external ; analogically, as the sight of the eye denotes understanding, and hearing obedience, 2271, 2287. The speech of man represents his thought, and action his will, 4292. To speak also denotes influx, because the will flows into the thought, 2951, 5481; hence it denotes the will itself, see below, 2620, 7107. When mention is made of saying and speaking, the former denotes to perceive, which is predicated of good, the latter to think, which is predicated of truth, 2619, 5259; that to say denotes to perceive and to think in a passage where its signification is more manifest than elsewhere, 3395 ; and that to speak daily denotes intense thought, 5000. When saying is predicated of Jehovah's speaking to Abram, it denotes the perception of the Lord when he was in the world from continual communication and discourse with Jehovah, 1602 1791, 1819, 1822, 2061, 2260, 2287, 3029, 3367; sometimes con- tinuous perception, sometimes new perception, 2238; and some- times thought following perception, 2260. To say predicated of Jehovah or God denotes the actual being or doing of the thing, be- cause all that is attributed to him must be in esse, 629, 630, 708, 926. To speak, predicated of God, is to will, because it denotes thouglit or perception, and what God thinks he wills, 2620, 2626, 3037, 7959. To say denotes to foresee, when predicated of the Lord, because his perception is such, 5361, 6946, 6951, 8095; and hence his providence, because he provides for what he foresees, 6951; see below, 6879, 7019. To say, and he said, denotes influx, 6291, 8221, 8262; and hence order and arrangement, which is from influx, 3019. To say denotes influx and reception ; the former when the speaker is regarded, the latter when the receiver, 5743, 8660. To say denotes influx when predicated of one who represents the internal speaking to the external, 6152, 6291, 7381. To say denotes communication, be- cause what another perceives is communicated to him, 3060, 4131, 6228. To say denotes influx and communication, 7291, 7381; also, information, 7769, 7793, 7825; instruction, 7304, 7380, 7517, 8127; exhortation, 7033, 7090,8178, 10,398, 10,471; confirmation, 7192; and what is concluded or determined, 10,602. To say, when influx and arrangement are treated of, denotes, exteriorly, to command, 3019 ; also when predicated of Jehovah, 7036 ; and when addressed to those who are in evils and falses, 7310. To speak, when predicated of one who represents doctrine, denotes its enunciation and preaching, 6999, 7063. To speak saying, denotes to persuade, 4478; when predicated of Jehovah, to inform or instruct, 8041,8127, 10,280; also illustra- K K 498 LAN tion and perception, 10,290; see below, 6879, 7019, 10,215. To say saving, denotes exhortation, 5012. To say denotes revelation, because this is internal perception, 5111, 5121, 8786. To say denotes to give the faculty of perception, 5877. To say is predicated of the reply from interior perception or intuition when man inquires within himself about anything, 6251, 2807; also, of the reply or response from a contrary principle, 7103, 7394; and when predicated of truth in re- spect to good, its responsive action, or, what is reciprocal in a reply, 8691. To say, when predicated of one who represents the external speaking to the internal, denotes elevation, 6262 ; compare 5797. To speak to the heart, predicated of one who represents the internal, is to give confidence, because it denotes the influx of good into the will, 6578. To speak from good to evil is to think evil and to speak good, 4126. To speak a word (praying for leave to speak) denotes influx and reception, 5797. To speak eloquent words is predicated of the joy of the mind when it comes into freedom after temptations, 6414. To say denotes the will because it involves all that follows show- ing the will of the speaker ; and because it involves all that follows, it has various other significations, such as command, exhortation, communication, thought, and also perception, which it properly signi- fies, 7107 and citations. God said, and Jehovah said, denote instruc- tion, 6879, 6881, 6883, 6891, 7186; also illustration, and confirma- tion in those who are illustrated, 7019; see above, 629, 2620, 5361, 6951. The phrases, Jehovah said, God said, and Jehovah spake and said, &c., denote a new state of perception, but still in continuation of what goes before ; these phrases also supply the place of a punctu- ation in the original, and are from the connection of angelic thought, 7191, 7226; see above (6), 4987; (3), 4221, 7381, 7191. To speak denotes exhortation, 7215; when addressed to the evil, admonition, 7220, 7237, 7243; when predicated of Jehovah, command, 7240; and instruction, 7241, 7267; also divine influx and communication, 7278, 8128, particularly 8920; or, again, influx and its reception, 5797. To speak and to teach denote influx ; when predicated of the Lord, his divine proceeding, 6993. As Jehovah hath spoken (according as he hath promised) denotes according to promise in the Word, 7933. All that Jehovah hath spoken, denotes the divine truth proceeding from the divine human, and this because the Lord is the divine itself in human form, 9398. Jehovah's speaking to Moses, denotes illus- tration by the Word from the Lord, and this by influx, 10,215 ; also the perceptive faculty consequent upon illustration by the \yord, 10,234; and in series, the beginning of a new subject in what is re- vealed, 10,234; thus, illustration and perception anew, 10,290; see above, 2238, 7191. Moses speaking to the sons of Israel, denotes the information or instruction of those who belong to the church by the Word, ill. 10,355. See Moses, Law, Word. 8. Jehovah's speaking and saying , denotes, generally, what really is; on the part of man, instruction by illustration from his divine truth, and whatever pertains to such illustration; see the passages cited above (7), and particularly 10,290 end. By the Lord's speaking, the most ancient church understood perception, and perception having ceased, the dictate of conscience formed from the revealed truths and knowledges of the Word came to be understood, 371. The Lord con LAS 499 tmually speaks to man by the goods and truths which the angels in- spire, hence his speaking signifies presence, 904; see below, 10,294 The angels sometimes speak, not from themselves, but from the Lord and this when their external is rendered quiescent ; when this is the case they know no other than that they are the Lord, 1745. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord, becomes audible speech by its transit through the heavens, and its reception and utterance by spirits who m that state are called the holy spirit; that it cannot be heard as speech or discourse otherwise, ilL by Moses, and his speaking through Aaron, 6982, 6985, 6993, 6996. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord s divine human, is called by the author divine speech, which infinitely transcends the tongues of angels, and which is only appre- bended by them when it has put on an adequate form by influx into heaven, 6996. It is divine truth that is called the Word, which is above all the understanding of the angels in its immediate proceeding • yet there is immediate divine influx into truth first received mediately 7004 ; the several degrees of its procedure and reception explained! until It reaches the understandings of men, 8443 ; and that its recep- tion and form is various according to the difference of thought and speech, 8920. In order that the Word might be received on earth as well as in heaven, the Lord spake of himself and the Father as sepa- rate, and also because he represented the divine truth from divine good, 3704. The Lord's words when he abode in the world contained an internal sense, and that sense being known, the words serve for objects from which to think of internal things, 3857 end, 3832; that what he spake was divine, and cannot be the same in the internal' sense as m the letter, 4334 ; examples in illustration, 9209, 10,243. The Lord's speech, when he was in the world as well as in the word of the Old Testament, was addressed both to men and to angels ; such lan- guage is divine, because universal, and contains divhie wisdom in every syllable and every part of a syllable, 4677 end, 4807, 8899, 9049 near the end, 9198 end. The words spoken by the Lord filled, and vet fill the universal heaven, 4677 end, briefly t7/. 10,033 end; and this, be'- cause the divine truth proceeding from him passes through heaven, and thus flows down to man, 8899. That the Lord only speaks to man by the Word, and that he spake to Moses and the prophets by the living voice in order that the Word might be written, 10,290 ; the manner explained, 6996 ; and that it is possible for external revela- tions to be given from the Lord, by the voice of an angel, even to those who are not m good and truth, 5121.

They who have lived together in lascivious love, and not in conjugial love, are separated in the other life, because no lasciviousness is toler- ated in heaven, 2732. Genuine conjugial love is from good and truth, and It continually flows into all, but it is changed according to recep- tion into lasciviousness and adulteries, 274 1 . Lascivious love some- K K 2 500 LAW LAW 501 times puts on the semblance of conjugial love, but there is no conjugial love with those who are not in the love of good and truth, 2/4-. Lasciviousness is one of the causes of disease, and all diseases are ni correspondence with the lusts and passions of the soul, j/U; what lascivious thoughts are excited when the organs of generation are only named, and that the most heavenly secrets of wisdom connected with these parts remain hidden on this account, 5055.

Laughter denotes the affection of truth because it is the expression of that "Affection passing from the rational mind into the face ; rational good is not expressed by laughing, m which there is somewhat not so good, but by a kind of joy in the countenance 2072 Abraham's falling on his face and laughing (for joy) when the birth ot Isaac was announced, denotes the adoration of the internal man from perceiving that the human rational should be made divine, 20/0-- 2072. Sarah's laughter in unbelief of the announcement that he should be born, denotes the existence of the divine rational not com- prehended from the human, 2139, 2201-2207, 2214-2216. Isa^c named from laughter, denotes the rational man distinguished by the affection of truth, 2072, 2083, 2638-2644, 2658. Isaac seen by Abimelech laughing with Rebecca, denotes the love or affection ot truth discovered to those wlio are in the doctrine of faith ; in the su- preme sense, divine good in divine truth, 3392. See Isaac. That the laughter of those who are not good is in the ^external skm, and not in the fibres from the internal, &c., 8246, 8247. LAYER, the [labruni], in which purification was effected, denotes the natural principle of man, ill. and passages cited, 10,235. The laver of brass made by Solomon, was called a sea, because a sea signi- fies the scientific principle in common, and all the scientific is of the natural man ; the twelve oxen supporting it denote all the goods of the natural and sensual man in one complex; their looking to all the quarters of the world, denotes the good of the natural man as the re- ceptacle of all that flows in from the world, 10,235. The basm of the laver denotes, properly, the external sensual, and the ten lavers, also of brass, set near the temple, the particular quality of the external sensual, ill. and passages cited, 10,236. See Vessel, to Wash. LAW Ilex]. All the laws of truth and right flow from celestial principles, or from the order of life of the celestial man, 162, 266. The fundamental of all laws is love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, and they who are in such love have the law written on their hearts, and are everywhere accepted as good citizens, 1121, ill, 5826 ; briefly, 7262. The divine law is nothing but the law of charity and faith, for it is divine truth proceeding from the Lord, and in all divine truth there is divine good, 7167. The law and the prophets, or Moses and the prophets, denotes the whole word of the Old Testa- ment, 2606. Laws denote all things of the Word considered specifi- cally, and in the genuine sense ; precepts and statutes denote the in- ternals and externals of the Word in common, 3382. The law, in an extended sense, denotes the whole Word ; in a sense less extended, the historical Word ; in a confined sense, the Word that was written by Moses ; in the strictest sense, the ten precepts of the decalogue, sh. 6752, 8695. The divine law is the Word, thus, divine truth, sh. 7463; see below, 7206, 8695, 8706, 8753. When the law was pro- mulgated on Mount Sinai, the precepts of the decalogue were under- stood by the angels otherwise than by men, ill. 2609 ; how they were understood, ill. by the internal sense, 7089; further ill. 7381, fully ex. 8867—8910; and that they contain within themselves truths which are received in heaven, ill. 8899, 8902; see below, 8862. The pre- cepts of the decalogue, and many other precepts of life in the law and the prophets, are of use in both senses; their promulgation in the literal sense was for the people of that time who had no regard for in- ternal things, 2609, 10,637; see below, 8862. The statutes and laws given to the Israelites were altogether representative, and when they declined to others the representation ceased, hence they were compelled to observe those representatives by external means, 4281. The statutes, judgments, and laws given to the Israelitish and Jewish nation were not new, but were known to the ancient church and the Hebrew church, 4444, 4449 ; the moral precepts of the decalogue also were known even to the Gentiles, 2609. 8862, 8902 end. The statutes, judgments, and laws derived from antiquity, had become idolatrous, and had been mixed with others of infernal origin among the nations, on this account they were enjoined anew upon the Israelites, 4459 end ; an example of an ancient law thus derived from hell, 5764. Judgments, so called in the external sense, are the laws of order, or divine truths, which proceed from the Lord's divine human, according to which the whole heaven and the universe are governed, 7206 ; that the divine law is no- thing but the law of divine order, 7186; and that the laws of divine order are truths in heaven, 8999, 9290, 9987. The statutes com- manded to the sons of Israel were from the order of heaven flowing-in ; • a statute for ever' denotes the eternal law of order from which they proceed, 7884, 8070; see below, 8223; and see above, 2609. All the statutes commanded to the sons of Israel were laws of order in external form, but those things which they represented and signified were laws of order in the internal form ; that the complex of all the laws of order is divine truth proceeding from divine good, 7995 ; and that the law of order, in an eminent sense, is the order of the Lord's glorification, and respectively of man's regeneration, 9987 ; see below, 10,239. Judgments are truths, and laws the truths of good, 8695. Statutes are the external goods and truths of the church ; laws, its internal goods and truths, 8706. The law is divine truth from divine good, and also the truth of faith from good, 8753, 8817, compare 8581 beginning and end, 8914. The ten precepts given on Sinai are internal truths, the laws and statutes external truths, altogether they signify truths which are to be implanted in good, 8793, compare 8859, 8862. The precepts of the decalogue and the statutes promulgated from Mount Sinai are such truths as the angels receive in their pro- ceeding from the Lord and passing down to man ; thus, they are spiritual truths accommodated to the human race who are in earthly 502 LAW LAW 503 and corporeal things, 8862, ill. 8920—8922 ; the internal sense of the ten commandments fully ex, and ill. 8867 — 8910; and that the two tables on which they were written denote the law in the complex, 9416, 10,375, 10,376. The laws given to the children of Israel are distinguished into precepts, judgments, and statutes, (or laws, judg- ments, and statutes, 9349;) precepts are the external truths which relate to life; judgments, such as relate to the civil state; and statutes, such as relate to worship ; the judgments and statutes are not for the use of Christians in their external form, but in their internal, 8972, 9282; see below, 9417; that they ceased to be binding when the Lord came into the world, 921 1, 10,637 ; but that they are still holy on ac- count of the internal sense, 921 1, 9349. The laws of life are not abro- gated, but confirmed, because the internal and external make one, 9211 end. Of the laws, judgments, and statutes promulgated from mount Sinai, some are altogether abrogated, some may still be of use if thought desirable, and some are always to be observed and done ; the passages in each case cited, 9349. The law, generally, means all the precepts, judgments, and statutes in one complex, and precepts the several injunctions of the law ; hence, law and precept named to- gether, denote truth in common and in particular, 9417. See Judg- ments, Statutes, Precepts. When it is said of the Lord that he fulfilled the whole law, it denotes all things in the Word concerning his temptations, and the glorification of his human, 10,239; see above, 9987. In ancient times the king represented the divine law, and was worshiped, not in person, but as the guardian of the law, 5323. See King. Seriatim passages concerning ecclesiastical and civil laws, 10,789 — 10,806; and that laws punishing and rewarding men only became necessary when the laws of charity were no longer inscribed upon the heart, 8118. See Government. It is a universal law of order that the Lord never casts any into hell, but that evil runs into its punishment or consummation when it exceeds a certain limit, 1857. The laws of order by which the evil are punished are the laws of truth separate from good, ill. 2447, 5759, 7206; briefly ill. by the laws which a king administers, 6071 ; see below, 8223. It is a universal law that good and truth can only be inseminated in freedom ; and man is most free to accept them when he compels himself to withstand the evil and false, ill. 1937; how in- violable this divine law is, 5854. It is a law of order that good spirits and angelic spirits, when they decline into a state of the love of self, are remitted into their natural state, and imbued with knowledges of good and truth as to that particular thing, 3693. It is a law of order that exteriors be subject to interiors, or, what is the same, inferiors to superiors, ill. 5127. It is a law common to all things, spiritual and natural, that what is prior can subsist with its more prior, but not without it with the posterior, 5413. It is a universal law that influx accommodates itself according to efflux, ill. 5828. It is a law of order with those who are infested by falses that they are to continue even to despair, otherwise the ultimate of infestation would be wanting, 7166 ; further ///. 7186. It is according to the laws of order that no one should be instantly convinced of truth, because in this case there can be no extension of view, ill. 7298. It is according to the laws of order in the other life, that any one with whom it is desired to speak is immediately present, 7390. It is a constant and perpetual law of order in the spiritual world that evil reverts to those who intend to do evil ; hence the law of retaliation with the Jews, ill. 8223, 9048. It is a 'law of order in the spiritual world that he who does good from the heart to another receives a like good, ill. 9048. The laws by which the innumerable societies of angels subsist together as one man are six, which are cited in order ; the universal of these, which makes the common bond of heaven, is love to the Lord, 9613; further i//. 10,130. It is a law of divine order that the will and the understanding should make one mind, thus, one man, 10,122 end. It is a general law that works take their quality from the man, and hence that his lot m the other life is according to his love and faith, 10,331. The law of mar- riage is derived from the heavenly marriage, and primanly from the conjunction of the one Lord with the one heaven, 1 62, 10, 1 67--10, 1 75 ; that this universal law is imaged in all things, and especially in good and truth, or charity and faith, 2173, 2508, 9050. The law of mar- riage, by which the wife is subject to the prudence of the husband, is from a spiritual origin, because the wife acts more from cupidity than from reason, briefly 266. See Marriage, Order, Influx, &c. It is a general law of representation that nothing is reflected upon the person or thing that represents, but upon what is represented, ill, 1361, 4281. All the laws contained in the Word, even those of a civil and forensic character, derive their origin from the laws of truth and good in heaven, and refer to such in the internal sense, but partly by correspondences, partly by representatives, and partly by significa- tives, 2567, 2/81, 3540, 3693, 5135 end, 8753.

There being one law for the stranger dwelling with the Israelites, and for the native people, denotes, that he who receives the truth and good of the church after instruction, and lives according to it, will be like him who is within the church before he is instructed, ill. and ah, 8013. (Some of the numbers cited above contain very brief notices of a single feature in the law referred to, but it appeared useful to give them, lle- ferences concerning the various other laws contained in Leviticus, may be consulted in the index to passages of Scripture. See also the various subjects.) The Word, so far as it is called the law, also the Lord himself as \l the Word or divine law, was represented by Moses, 4859, 5922, 6714, 671 9 ; ill. 6720 ; fully sh, 6752; properly, the internal sense of the Word, which is the eternal law, 7089, 7231, 7381, 7390. The beginning of its existence, or the divine law in its origin, is denoted by the birth of Moses, 6718 — 6722. Its concealment in good surrounded with mixed evils and falses, by the ark in which he was hidden, 6724—6726. Its discovery to those who minister in the false religion, by the daughter of Pharaoh's finding him, 6729—6735. Its increase, by the insinua- tion of good with those who are in the affection of scientifics, by his niother suckling him, and his protection by the daughter of Pharaoh, 6749, 6/50. Its conjunction with the truths of the church and its destruction of false scientifics, by his going amongst his brethren, and his slaying the Egyptian, (i7t^C)—(i7(^2. Its rejection by those within the church who are not yet illustrated in interior truths, by the enmity of the Hebrew when he reproved him, iJ7G\—Ci7Cid. Its reception by those within the church who are in simple good, by his dwelling in Midian, 6772, 6773. Its instruction given to them and leading to the good of charity, in opposition to evil teachers, by his helping the daughter of Jethro, and watering their flock, 6780, 6781. Its conjunc- tion with the good of the church, and the conception of truth therefrom, by his marrying the daughter of Jethro, and her bearing a son, 6793— 6795. Its influx out of this state to those of the church who are in- fested by falses, by his mission to the Israelites in their bondage, 6825, 6851 — 6854, 6862 — 6865. Its good coming into potency by its truth, by the part of Aaron in this mission, 6940, 6998—7012. Its state of reception with those wlio are to be liberated, their faith and hope in undergoing temptations, by the Israelites believing him and humbling themselves to him, 7062—7068. Its state of reception with those who are in evils and the falses of evil, their evil state manifested, by the obduracy of Pharaoh, and the waters turned to blood, the frogs, the hail, the darkness, &c., 7094—7098, 7103, 7188, 7224, 7272, 7275, 7292—7295, 7309, 7316, 7317, 7322, 7327, 7336, 7382— 7387, 7422—7428, 7463, 7568, 7569, 7572—7577, 7(^7^— 7GSA, 7713 — 7716. Its procedure from the divine, and influx from internals to externals in the exercise of its potency, by Jehovah's speaking to Moses, and Moses to Aaron, 6946—6948, 7003, 7004, 7011, 7028, 7058, 7063, 7089—7091, 7186, 7192, 7206, 7239—7241, 7270, 7283—7286, 7291, 7304, 7329, 7347; particularly 7380—7382, 7390, 7422, 7451, 7517, 7637, 7656, 7673, 7678, 7710, 7796, 7994. Its influx into the perception and thought of the spiritual who are delivered from infestation, by Moses speaking to the sons of Israel, 8128, 8170, 8180. Its power ruling the hell of those who are principled in the falses of evil, and their influx averted, by his stretching his hand over the Red Sea and dividing its waters, 8183, 8184, 8200-8206, 8221— 8232, 8241.

The Lord leads and inclmes man both by the fallacies of the senses and by his lusts to good and truth, 24. I he Lord leads man by his proprium when he appears to leave him to himselt, 2678. In the first state of regeneration the Lord leads man by his own affections, in order that genuine affections of good and truth may be im- bued in tVeedom, 1937, 1947, 3982, 4364, 6472. The Lord, by the medium of angels, teaches and leads those who are in the principles ot truth and good into the life of truth and good, although they know it not. 3773 Man is led by the Lord in spiritual life, in the same way as one man leads another in civil life, ill. 4366. They can be led by divine influx in whom conscience is formed, otherwise the divine flow- ing-in passes down into and is perverted by sensual delights, ilL ol45; further t//. 5893; that to be led is predicated of divme influx and its reception, and of elevation to heaven, 8307, 8309; or from a na ural state to a spiritual one, 10,409. Man suffers himself to be led by hell when he does evil, and by the Lord when he does good, 2893. To be led by the Lord is to be led from good to good, and this in per- feet freedom, 5660. The Lord might lead man into good by omni- potent force, but this would be to deprive him of his proper life, which is love, 5854. Man could not be led by the Lord unless he were inte- riorly associated with spirits and angels, 5861 ; man cannot be led by angels unless he is receptive of the truths of faith, for there is no plane into which they can operate, and he is then led by hell, 5893. When the Lord is present with any one, he leads him, and provides that whatever happens, whether it be joy or sorrow, conduces to his good, 6303 ; see below, 8093, 9824. The man who is led by the Eord is m freedom itself, and thus in delight and blessedness itself, t//. 03 J5, 6472. Influx from the Lord is immediate and mediate, and so tar as man receives the former he is led by the Lord, 6472, 7055. When it is said that God leads any one, it denotes his providence and divme auspices, 8093, 8098 ; see below, 9824. In the first state of regene- ration, while he acts from truth, man is led by self, but afterwards when he acts from good he is led by the Lord, 8505 ; that there are two states of the regenerate man, the one when he is led by tjutli to good, and the other when he is in the good of charity, 922/, 92/4 and citations; see below, 8722, 10,362. When man is led by truth the Lord does not appear to him, for he does not live in the Lord according to divine order ; to live according to order is to be led of the Lord by good, 8512; ill. 8513. Every one is led by his love, conse- quently he is self-led who prefers himself to his neighbour, and he is led by good, and thus by the Lord, who loves good, 8513. All in heaven are led by good, for this is according to divine order, and in this order all that they think and do flows spontaneously and from free- dom, 85 1 7. The spiritual are led by truth to good, and when they come to good they are in their own place or state, 8722. They who love the truth for its own sake, and not for themselves, are illustrated by the Lord, and led to see the truths of the Word as they are appre- hended in heaven, ill. 9424. They who are in the loves of self and the world are led by their evil from truths to falses, ill. 10,201. They are under the auspices of the Lord, and led by his good pleasure, with whom he dwells in ultimates, for it is only by ultimates that the inte- riors are held together in form and connection, ill. 9824. To be led by the Lord and not by self is to be in the good of innocence, 10,210; that the decline of the most ancient church was their unwillingness to be led by the Lord, 205. To be led by self is to be led by the loves of the proprium, which flow in from hell ; and to be led by the Lord is to be led by the loves which flow-in from heaven ; man must be led by the one or the other, 10,362; and that one may lead a man any- whither by his love, but that reasons opposed to his love avail nothing, 10,153. It is servitude to be led by self, and freedom to be led by the Lord ; the worldly success of those who are led by self explained, and that the Lord leads to eternal ends, 10,409, 10,776—10,781. The Lord leads every one by his understanding, the perfect freedom of which is therefore preserved, 10,409, 10,777—10,779. The state in which man is led by himself, while he is in truths only, is denoted by the six-days* labour; the state in which he is led by the Lord, when he comes into good, by the Sabbath, 10,362, particularly 10,729; the prayer. Lead us not into temptation, ill. 1875, 3425 end. See Sab- hath. To lead (or take) a wife is predicated of the conjunction of truth with good, 6717. Moses to lead the people to Canaan denotes the institution of the church, 10,507. Peter's girding himself, and going whither he would while he was young, but another's girding him, and leading him whither he would not when he grew old, denotes the freedom in which man is led by the Lord from the affection of truth, and his slavery when led by hell; thus, the church in its beginning and at Its end, 1 0,087. To be led in the spirit is to be led by variations of the state of interior life ; and the Lord alone can lead the spirit through these changes when it passes out of its own orb, 9579, 9580. LEADER, OR Duke [dux], A chief or leader of an army, like a prince, denotes what is primary in doctrine, 3448. Leaders or dukes signify chief principles, either good or evil, and princes the same pre- dicated of what is true or false ; in either case, the chief includes all and everything, 8314. The dukes of Edom signify leading principles m series with the good of love, especially in the Lord's divine human, 4647, 8314; the dukes of the Horites, truths in like order, 4648. 1 he tertian leaders appointed by Pharaoh signify the common princi- ples or chief heads of doctrine, under which particulars are held toge- ther m series, 8150, 8276. How clear the light of truth is when good 18 made the leader, and how obscure good is when truth leads, 2407, 508 LEA LEA 509 2410: see to Lead, 8505, 9227.

To lead forth signifies to withhold ; predicated of Lot and his family brought forth out of the city, to withhold from what is false and evil, 2413, 2415. To be led forth and burnt, m the case of Thamar, denotes the extirpation of both truth and good, 4906. To go out, or be brought forth out of the womb, is predicated of one who is born anew or regenerated, 4918. To be led or brought forth, signifies deliverance ; in the case of Joseph, deliverance from evils, 5134 ; in the case of Moses, deliverance from falses, 6753. The sons of Israel led forth out of Egypt, denotes the s[)iritual church delivered from infestation by falses, 6865, 7203; or separated from those who are in evils and falses, 7898 ; i7/. 7932^ 7990, 8018, 9197, 9294; m the explanation of the commandments, 8866. Generally, to lead forth signifies deliverance ; and to be led forth out of Egypt, is to be led out of the natural man and his scientifics, and elevated into spiritual light; thus, to be elevated from hell to heaven, ill, 10,156. See to Go Forth. LEAF S^folium\. See Leaves. LEAH. Rachel denotes the affection of internal truth,^ Leah the affection of external truth, both from common good, tV/. 3793, 3818, 3819, 5469, compare 3665 ; and see Laban. Leah denotes the ex- ternal church especially with the Jews, Rachel the internal church among the Gentiles, by which it was succeeded, 409, 422. Leah's having weak eyes, denotes the similar state of the understand- ing with those who are in the affection of external truth only, ill. 3820. Laban's giving her to Jacob in place of Rachel, denotes the conjunc- tion of external truth before internal, UL 3834, 3838, 3843. Ilis giving her a handmaid named Zilpah, denotes the corporeal affection corresponding to the affection of external truth, and serving as a bond and means of conjunction, 3835, 3913. Her being hated, and Je- hovah's opening her womb, denotes the affection of external truth re- mote from the divine, and the doctrines of churches thence produced, 3855, 3856. Her conceiving and bearing four sons, Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah, denotes spiritual conceptions and births from external to internal, namelv, the truth of doctrine in the understanding, truth in the will, charity, and love to the Lord, who then appears to be re- generate, 3759, 3761, 3860, 3868, 3872, 3875, 3876, 3880, 3881 ; in a summary, 3882, 3902. Her ceasing to bear, denotes no further acknowledgment in faith and act of external truths, 3930. Her giving her handmaid to Jacob for a woman, denotes the affirmative affection excited in the external man, 3931, 3932, compared with 3835, 3913 cited above. Two sons. Gad and Ashur, born of her handmaid, de- notes the good of faith and works, and the perception of felicity in the external man hereby received and acknowledged, 3932, 3935, 3937, 3939. The dudaim found and brought to her by Reuben in the time of wheat harvest, denotes the principle of conjugial love discovered in the proceeding state of love and charity, 3941 — 3943. Her giving them to Rachel, and afterwards bearing Issachar and Zebulon, denotes the elevation of such affection and desire, and hence mutual love, and conjugial love received and acknowledged, 3956, 3957, 3960, 3969 ; the signification of all the sons born of Leah and her handmaid explained in a summary, 4605, 4606, 4609, 6024. Her bearing, a daughter after these, and calling her name Dinah, denotes the affection of all the truths of faith hitherto received, thus the church of faith, and good therein, 3963, 3964, 4428. See Jacob (6), Tribes. LEAN IN FLESH, denotes the want of charity, 5204, 5258. LEARNED \doctus\. They who are wise from the light of the world, and at the same time in the love of self, believe that their eyes are wide open and that they are as God, knowing good and evil, yet none are so blind as they ; examples that they do not know what the simple know, 206. They believe themselves wise who can take up dogmas and argue in confirmation of them, but the part of a wise man before he confirms a tenet, is to see whether it be true, 4741. The learned do not see divine truths like the simple, because, from a nega- tive principle, they consult scientifics, and thereby deprive themselves of interior sight, 4760. The learned are less wise than the simple in consequence of their being sensual, and unable to elevate their thoughts above the scientifics in which they are closed and immersed ; also, that scientifics are sensual, 5089. The generality of the learned are in the persuasion of what is false, because they confirm falses by scientifics, UL 5128. Many of the learned are sensual, because the sciences are acquired for the sake of honour or gain, 6316 ; that they do not com- prehend what spirit is, and a life after death, from experience, 6317; and that they search the Word to confirm their doctrines for the sake of gain, ill. 5432, 5433. The affectation of eloquence and of learning, casts things into a shade, and substitutes words in their place, 6924. The learned believe that they should receive the Word better if it were otherwise written, but that they are altogether deceived, also that many of them are atheists and naturalists, 8783. Several of the learned, who were well versed in the truths of faith from the Word, are in hell, while many who were not in truths, but in falses, are in heaven ; and this, because the latter were in good and the former not in good, ilU and sh. 9192. With the learned in the Christian world, the internal is more closed than with the simple, three causes, 10,492. The learned at this day wander only in the bark (the outward rind or husk of opinions), and love to dispute only whether a thing be so, 3677 ; that they know less than the simple concerning heaven, concerning good and truth, &c., from experience, 3747 — 3749, 4156, 4760; and that knowledges are not only the means of growing wise, but also the means of becoming insane, 4156, 6316, 8629. The learned or wise who shall shine as the stars, are they who are in good, who will receive wisdom proportionate to their good in the other life, 3820 ; also, they who are in truth and who teach truth, 9192. See to Teach ; and see Science, Doctrine, Understanding, Wisdom, Internal, External. LEAST \minimus\. He who wills to be the least in heaven, is the greatest, because he is the most happy, 452, 1419. The greatest in heaven are they who are least in their own esteem, and in the greatest affection of serving others, ill. and sih. 3417. The angels have power 510 LEB LEN 511 from the Lord in proportion as they believe they have no power J>t their own, thus, the least are the most powerful, 341/ end, ilL 44i>J. Those meant by the least in the kingdom of heaven, are the greatest, because they are in the inmost, and in the highest obedience, i//. a 04 ; as to John the Baptist, see Lesser. Benjamm called the least (youngest) denotes the conjoining medium between the celestial and the spiritual, 5443, 5517. That man is the same in the least things of his thought and will as he is in the greatest, thus that his ruling love is all in all, 6571, 6626. LEAVEN [fermetitum], denotes what is corrupt and unclean, l lui . The offering to be unleavened, or not fermented, signifies jove and charity from a sincere heart, and without uncleanness, 21/7. Un- leavened bread denotes pure love, the baking of it, purification, 2.i4I end. Leaven denotes what is false and evil ; unleavened bread what is purified from all that is false, sh 2342 ; briefly, 7853, 7886 Leaven denotes what is false, 7887, 7888, sh. 7906, 7907, 7909. Leavening (fermentation) denotes spiritual combat, by which the truth is purified of the false, because such purification can only be effected by the coiitlict of the one with the other, 7906, compare 9992 ; and for the ditter- ence between leaven and leavened, 8062. Leaven is so frequently com- manded not to be eaten, because in all things it is necessary to guard against the false, for the false destroys good, 7909 ; that leavened de- notes what is falsified, 8051; briefly i7/. 8062 ; and ^}^^^^^':^I^^IZ^'^ bread denotes good purified from the false, 8058; both tit. 999^. Farina or fine flour signifies truth, dough the good of truth, bread the good of love, the dough carried out from Egypt by the Israelites without leaven, denotes freedom from all that is false in the first state of deliverance, 7966. The annual festival of unleavened bread repre- sented purification from falses, the feast of harvest or first-fruits the implantation of truth, and the feast of ingathering the implantation ot good, 9286—9292, 9992, 10,669—10,671 ; HL 9294. No leaven and no honey were to be used in the meat-offerings, because leaven denotes the false of evil, and honey external delights, thus delight with which the love of the world is mingled, 10,137. The wave loaves were to be leavened, (Levit. xxiii. 17,) because they represented good not per- fectly purified, and their being waved by the priest, vmfication, 9i9J. See Sacrifice. .. , LEAVES [folia]. When man is compared to a tree, or called a tree, the good of charity is signified by fruit, and the truth of faith by leaves, 884, 885, ill. 3427. The Lord's advent is represented by the fis-tree in the parable, because a fig-tree denotes natural good ; its branches, affections; and its leaves, truths, ill. 4231. The regenerate man is compared to a tree ; the successive growths of intelligence, ot wisdom, and of life, to the production of leaves, flowers, and fruits, ill. 5115, 5116, 9337, particularly 10,185. See Flower, Fruit. All things in nature have reference to the human form ; the leaves ot a tree to the lungs and their oflice of respiration, 10,185. The leaves of the fig-tree sewn together for aprons, denotes the excuse of their evil by external truth, 216, compare 9960 end. See Tree, Vegetation. LEBANON, OR LIBANON, [Libanusl is put for the cedars of Lebanon, which denote spiritual things, or the truths of faith, 886. The smell of Lebanon denotes the aff*ection of truth, the vine ot Lebanon the affection of good, 886, 5113. The cedars and trees of Lebanon denote rational perceptions, 1443. Cedars, the glory of Lebanon, denote celestial spiritual things ; the fir-tree, the pine, and the box, celestial natural, 2162, compare 9406. The cedar, and also mount Lebanon, denote the rational mind or the rational man, 28*31. Lebanon denotes the spiritual church, Carmel and Sharon the celestial church, 5922. Carmel, Lebanon, and Hermon, denote the church as to knowledges, variously, 9011. Lebanon denotes the spiritual church, the cedar of Lebanon its truth, 10,199. Lebanon and its cedars both alike denote spiritual good, because Lebanon was a forest of cedars, 10,261. LED, to he, \duci\. See to Lead. LEFT HAND [sinister']. See Right and Left. LEFT, OR RESIDUE, the, [residuus]. See Remains. LEG [cms]. The strength of a horse, and the legs of a man, denote own power of understanding truth and doing good, 2826. Two legs, or a piece of an ear snatched from the mouth of a lion, denote the will of good and the will of truth, 3869, more particularly ex. 10,050. The paschal lamb to be roasted, the head upon the legs and upon the midst, denotes from what is inmost to what is outermost, ill. 7859; further ill. 10,048. Legs signify the extremes where good verges to obscurity ; the legs (sides) of the tabernacle ex. 9653, 9655, 9658. The legs of beasts denote the exteriors of the natural man, because they cohere with the feet, but it is otherwise in the case of man, whose legs and feet therefore have a distinct signification, 10,050. See Foot, Man. LEGISLATOR, or Lawgiver, denotes truth in power from good; the blessing of Judah ex. 6372. See Foot, King, Tribes. LEGITIMATE. Truth can only be legitimately multiplied from good ; if it be otherwise it is an adultery, and not the heavenly mar- riage, 5345. See Marriage.

LENGTH [longitudo\ applied to time, denotes what is perpetual and eternal; applied to space, what is holy, 650. Height denotes good, breadth truth, and length the holy (proceeding of good and truth), 650 ; ill. 4482. Length denotes good, breadth truth ; and in ancient times it was common to use the words in this sense, as heights and depths are used at this day, 1613. States of good and truth are denoted by lengths, breadths, and heights, because they are extensions in respect to the Lord, 4482. Days being prolonged, denotes the augmentation of good, 8898. A long way off denotes disagreement and aversion, and this from the law of consociation in the other life, ill. 9261. Length denotes good, and breadth truth, because spaces in the other life are appearances of the states of good and truth, 9487; that length denotes good, 9600, 9617, 9636; both i7/. from situation and exten- sion in the other life, 10,179. Degrees of length and breadth are pre- dicated of extension from the midst to the circumferences, degrees of height from interiors to exteriors, ill, 10,181.

LEPROSY [lepra\ denotes the profanation of what is holy ; spe- cificany thrprofL^tio^^^ of truth, 716, 0959, 6^63, ,9014 The sej^ra kinds of leprosy and the laws concernuig the ceansuig of lepers denote various qualities of profanation, whether interior or extenor &c and the meai s of restoration, 6903. He who was eprous all over w«« V' be pronounced clean, and he in whom any ^^^"S^.fl^^^l^ri^^^^^^^^^^ clean, because the former denotes exterior V^o^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ but the living flesh in the latter acknowledgment and faith, OJO.i , hence lepers denote those who are unclean, but st.ll willing to be cleansk llOO.

Cedcers and sor'es o^' leprosy denote defilements and blasphemies 7524. Leprosy denotes truth profaned thus falsified and to be cleansed from it' is to be led by the truths and goods of the Word. 9468 ; the laws concerning it cited in part 0^3, 8/0 314 end 3301, 4735, 4922, 7430, 7839, 7918, 10,038, 10,042, 10,061, 10 137, 10 296 LESSER, OR Younger [ininor]. The greater denotes good, the lesser truth, 3296, 6270. The elder or greater denotes ^^^^^^ is ex- ternal because it is first learnt, the younger what is mternal beeause it is learnt afterwards, 3819. The lesser in the kingdom of heaven greater than John the Baptist, denotes the mternal trut\ of the M compared with the external, 9372. To be less denotes to be msuffi- cient, 7834.

See Drink-Offering, Sacrifice. . ., , . LIBERATION. The salvation and liberation of the spmtuai is by means of the divine human, 2833, compare 2061. 2716; see below, 6945. When the natural man is regenerated by charity and laith, he is liberated from evils, for evils are then separated and cast out ot the centre to the circumferences, where the light of truth ^oni good does not fall upon them, 5134. No one can be liberated ^rom hell in the other hfe, unless he was in spiritual good in the life of the body, ilL 6368. To liberate, predicated of the truth, signifies its Pj^evad^^^ over the false, 6784, compare 6854. It is impossible to be liberated ?rom falses except by the holy proceeding of the Lf ^^« /--^^^^^^^^^ 6864. The hberation of the spiritual church was effected by the Lord s advent into the world, and their salvation in particular is by the Lord s LIB 513 divine human, 6945 and citations, 7066, 8668, 9937. The spiritual man is liberated from infestation gradually, ill. 7186, 9333, 9336; thus, without infringing either his own liberty or that of the spirits who infest him, 4110. When the spiritual were liberated by the advent of the Lord, they were first prepared to receive the influx of good and truth from him, for they passed through the midst of hell, 7849; ill. 8099. They were elevated into heaven after undergoing temptations, 7932|, 8099. The spiritual who were liberated by the Lord are such as were in the good of truth and the truth of good, 8018. The states of liberation are like those of regeneration, for regeneration is the liber- ation of man from hell and his introduction into heaven by the Lord, 9286. The states of liberation are, generally, three, 1. Purification from falses; 2. The implantation of truth in good; and 3. The im- plantation of good, 9286; ill. 9294, 9295. The liberation of man from evils and falses, or the remission of sins, consists in his being detained from them and held in good and truth bv the Lord, ill. 9333 ; fully ill. 9937. The sins which a man does are footed in his life, and make his life, hence no one can be Hberated from them unless he re- ceive new life from the Lord, which is onlv by regeneration, brieflv 9444. So far as man believes that all good' flows in from the Lord, and all evil from hell, he is affected by goods and purified and liber- ated from evils, 10,219. The state after passing through temptations and overcoming in them, denoted by the words of Jacob, * I have seen God faces to faces, and my soul is liberated,' 4299. The state of the internal man in the external, when the external is liberated from its evils, denoted by Joseph brought out of the prison-house in Egypt, 5134. Liberation from hell by celestial good flowing-in from the Lord, denoted by Judah, called a lion's whelp, going up from the prey, 6368. Those who are in simple good liberated from the doctrines of false teachers by scien- tific truth, denoted by Moses (called a man of Egypt; protecting the shepherdesses of Midian, 6784. The spiritual church liberated from the false scientifics which infest and destroy truths, denoted by the sons of Israel led out of Egypt by Moses, 6854, 6864, 6897, 6945, 7066, 7169, 7932, 8018,8099.8668. 10,659; by the dead going out from the tombs after the Lord's resurrection, 8018; and by the ram liberated by Abraham, 2833, 2834. The liberation of man from hell by the work of salvation, represented by Aaron's bearing the plate of holiness upon his forehead, 9937. The deliverance of man from the damnation of hell by the three great operations of his regeneration, represented by the three festivals, 9286, 9294, 9295, 10.655. 10,659. LIBERTY [libertas], consists in being led of the Lord, and slavery consists m being under the dominion of evil spirits, 892, 905. Man never comes into a state of liberty before he is regenerated and led by the Lord by the love of good and truth, 892. The more the Lord is present with man the more free he is, 905 ; and he is more present in temptations than at other times, 1947, ill. 4299. The spiritual man acts freely because according to conscience, by which the Lord governs him, 918, ill. 1835. Man is more free when he compels himself to do good than at other times, and the strength of his freedom is equal to the evil that tempts him, 1937. No man is compelled by the Lord, thus all reformation is effected by freedom, ill. 1937; ill. and sh. 1947, L L M 514 LIB 4029, 4031, 7007; also 287G, &c., cited below; the quality of celes- tial freedom and infernal freedom compared, 1947, 2874. To force oneself to do good and to resist evil is freedom, 1937, 1947. In such compulsion and in every temptation in which man conquers, there is freedom, and it is thus that man is gifted by the Lord with a celestial proprium, 1937, 1947; see below, 2880. The good and truth of faith can only be implanted in freedom, 1947 end; and citations below, 2875, 2879, 3043, 3145, 8700, 9588.

That man is carried in freedom either to the joys of heaven or the loathsome horrors of hell by the delights of conjugial love, 2744. Seriatim passages concerning man's freedom, 2870 — 2893. All freedom is of some love or affection, but the freedom of evil loves is only apparent, 2870; see below, 2884,9096. Infernal freedom is of the love of self and the world, but celestial freedom is of love to the Lord and the neighbour, thus of the love of good and truth, 2870, G390. The infernals do not know any other freedom than what is of the loves of self and the world, for it is only in the freedom of these loves that they have any delight, and when they lose it they have no more life than a new born infant, 2871. It is impossible for those whose life consists in the freedom of those loves to come into heaven, 2871 end. They who are in celestial freedom, or freedom from the Lord, are de- sirous to communicate their own blessedness and happiness to others ; that such communication is effected, after a wonderful manner, by in- flux, 2872. Infernal freedom is as far distant from celestial, as hell is from heaven ; also, that all are distinguished in the other life ac- cording to the freedom of the loves and affections, in which the life of every one consists, 2873 ; the quality and difference of these freedoms briefly ill, 2874, 9589, 9590. The good of life or the affection of good is insinuated in celestial freedom by an internal way ; into this good the truth of doctrine is also implanted according to the freedom of man's affection, 2875 ; ill, 2877. The affection of truth is the vessel itself by which it is received in man, hence, what is done in freedom, is conjoined, but what in compulsion, is not conjoined, 2875 ; see below, 3145. As no one can be reformed but by freedom, there- fore freedom, so far as it appears, is never taken away, 2876, 2881. It is an eternal law that every one is free as to his interiors, that is, as to his affections and thoughts, 2876. Unless man had freedom, the affections of good and truth could not be insinuated into him by the Lord, thus neither reformation nor regeneration could be effected, 2877, 2878 ; and this, because the root of good and of truth is in the inmost principle of man, 2879. Nothing appears as man's own but what is from freedom, and this because the affection of love is his verimost life ; hence he is held in his own freedom by the Lord while he is introduced into angelic freedom, or induced to accept a celestial proprium, 2880. If man could be saved by compulsion all would be saved, and though it appears as if he were under compulsion when he resists evil, yet man has a stronger freedom in temptation-combats, than out of them, 288 1 . No one has, nor ever had, celestial freedom from himself, but from the Lord, not even man whilst in integrity, LIB 515 ^ 2882. In order to have celestial freedom, man ought to think what is true from himself, and to do what is good from himself, but still to know and acknowledge that it is from the Lord ; that the angels are in such acknowledgment and perception, 2883, 2891. The freedom of the loves of self and the world is altogether slavery, still it is called freedom, in the same way that love and affection are used in both senses, 2884. All alike, men, spirits, and angels, think and will from others, and finally, all and every one from the first Author of life, who is the Lord, 2886, 5847. Evils and falses have connection with the hells, truths and goods with the heavens, and hence the freedom, respectively, of those who are in them, 2886. Man would have no life if spirits and angels were not attendant upon him, but all thought and will would instantly perish, 2887. The all of life flows-iu from the Lord, comparatively as from the sun into the objects of the earth ; thus, with every one according to his particular genius, 2888. Even evil spirits have no life except from truth and good, and they first begm to live when the former life, which is the lust of evil and the persuasion of what Ife false, is extinguished, 2889; further eV/. 3610, 6325. The evil spirits associated with man consider him as a vile slave, but the angels as a brother ; the angels also lead him in freedom, not according to their own will, but the good pleasure of the Lord, 2890, 6205 ; see below, 4110, 5982. The more exquisitely the angels perceive themselves to be led by the Lord, and thus to be in the Lord, the more free they are, 2891. He who lives in good, and believes that all good and truth, and life itself, are from the Lord, is capable of being gifted with celestial freedom and peace, but he who does not believe is carried into lusts and anxieties, 2892; that all evils and falses are from hell, and all goods and truths from the Lord, and that this may be known and is known to every one, but that still it is not believed, 2893. It is the natural man that is said to be left in free- dom, not the rational, for by the rational there is an influx of good from the Lord in celestial freedom, 3043, ill, 5650 ; see below, 5760, 6125; that the Lord also left the natural man in freedom, when he made his human divine as to truth, 3043. Without freedom there is no production of truth in the natural man, nor elevation therefrom into the rational, thus there is no conjunction of truth with good, and no regeneration, 3145, 3146, 4029, 4031 ; the same further ill,, and that everything which is from the will appears free, 3158, 3179. Good given to man and not planted in freedom would be dissipated by the first pressure of temptation ; this is foreseen by the Lord, who provides that his course shall be bent to a milder hell, if he cannot be led in freedom to heaven, 3854. The spirits that are adjoined to man, whether good or evil, are removed from him without violating their freedom, 4110. They who are in good are in such freedom that they are able in thought and intuition to range as it were through the whole heaven ; they who are in confirmed falses are bound as in prison, and they appear to themselves to be free, because all freedom is of the affections, 5096. The idea of the natural man concerning freedom is that of being master of his own will, his own thoughts, and his own actions ; but celestial freedom is to will from the Lord and not at all from self, and to think from heaven, 5428. The freedom of man consists in what comes from the heart, the will, the affection of man's L L 2 516 LI B love, thus, from the man himself, 5619. Man is so far regenerated as he places the spiritual man in freedom by the subjugation of the natural, ill. 5G50 ; and hence that the external man ought to be without freedom from the proprium, 5760, 5763, ilL 5786, 9096. The freedom of man is from the equilibrium in which he is held by spirits from hell on the one hand, and by angels from heaven on the other, 5982 ; see 2890. Man's freedom or choice in the election of good or evil is from his intellectual faculty and its capabiUty of being perfected ; for it is the intellectual part which is the recipient of spiritual good and truth, 6125, 9096; see below, 10,777. If man were in a state to believe that all good and truth are from the Lord, and all evil and the false from hell, he would be gifted with peace, and would be in essential freedom, ill. 6325. Man is encompassed with a general sphere of attempts to do evil from hell, and a sphere of attempts to do good from heaven, and hence has equilibrium and freedom; the author's experience, 6477; and that man is kept in the equilibrium between these, that he may be in freedom, and may be reformed, 8209. It is in man's freedom to desist from evil, because he fe kept by the Lord perpetually in that attempt, ill. 8307. Repentance must be effected in a free state, otherwise it is of no avail ; a compelled state briefly ill. 8392. Man acts from freedom when he acts from affection, ill. 8690. Faith and charity implanted in freedom remain, but not in compulsion, 8700. They are servants who act from the obedience of faith, or from truths only, and not from correspondent good, but they are lords and free, who act from the affection of charity ; the law concerning servants and masters ex. 8974, 8979, 8987, 8988, 8990. See Obedience. Freedom consists in being led by the Lord, and servitude in being led of hell, or of self, sh. 9096 ; passages cited, 10,409 ; and that Christian liberty extends no farther than the liberty to do good and to shun evil, 9096 end. They are able to think and to will freely who are in the good of love to the Lord, and thence in the truths of faith, 9877. Seriatim passages concerning the freedom of the will, 9585—9591; here, as in the passages cited above, that all which is of the will and love is called freedom, and that it manifests itself by delight, 9585 ; that servitude consists in being led of hell, and freedom in being led of the Lord, 9586, 9589—9591 ; that the Lord leads man by freedom, 9587; that what is inseminated in freedom remains, and what in compulsion does not remain, 9588 ; and finally, that celestial freedom (free-determination, or free-will, liberum arhi- trium) consists in doing good from the will or choice, 9591. That is said to be in freedom which comes from the love, because man wills what he loves, 10,097. Order requires that every man should act according to reason from freedom ; hence, unless man be kept in the freedom even to do evil, good cannot be provided for him by the Lord, 10,777. A brief illustration that the doctrine of necessity is not true, and this, notwithstanding that the Divine Providence proceeds accord- ing to the most essential order of things, 6487. The freedom of man when he acts according to conscience, after fluctuating between falses and truths, denoted by Noah's going out from the ark, 905, 918. The freedom of the natural man in compelling himself to do good, and his submission to the government of intellectual truth, denoted by llagar's return to her mistress, 1936, 1937, 1947. LIE 517 The natural man left in perfect freedom by the rational if the affection of truth is not accepted, denoted by the servant of Abraham to be re- leased from his oath if the woman would not go with him, 3043. The freedom in which the natural man receives instruction in truths and goods, denoted by the servants' camels being loosened, and straw and provender given them, 3145, 3146. The freedom in which the natural man is conjoined to the rational, denoted by Laban and Bethuel's being asked to deliberate, and the choice afterwards given to Rebecca, con- cerning her marriage with Isaac, 3158, 3179. No other goods and truths but those conceived in perfect freedom given to the regenerate, and all such attributed to them, denoted by Jacob's flock derived from the first in coition of the flock of Laban, 4029, 4031. The freedom in which good not made spiritual is relinquished by the regenerate, denoted by Jacob's separation from Laban while Laban was gone to shear his flock, 4110. The external man when conjoined to the in- ternal, without freedom from the proprium, denoted by the brethren of Joseph to become his servants, 5760. The freedom of natural affection and the cheerfulness of the mind after emerging from tempta- tions, denoted by Napthali compared with a hind let loose, &c., 6411 — 6414. The external man no longer able to serve the internal if the affection of natural or sensual truth be destroyed, denoted by the Hebrew servant's having his freedom if his master struck him and de- stroyed his eye or his tooth, 9058—9063. LIBRATION. The exploration of truth before its conjunction is a most exquisite libration or balancing, to prevent anything false being conjoined with good or anything true to evil, 3116. See Initiation, Conjunction. LICE [pediculi'\. The sphere of those who have persecuted inno- cence smells like the stench of domestic lice, 1514, 4628. The fourth degree of vastation, when all good perishes, is signified by the dust of the earth turned into lice, 7378. Lice signify evils which are de- lighted in merely because they are evils, 7392. Lice signify evils in the sensual or most external of man, answering to their residence amongst the filth and scabs of the skin ; and the infestation of such evils is signified by their biting, 7419, 7424, 9331. See Creeping- thing. LIE, a \mendacium\ denotes the false and evil of faith ; bearing witness to a lie, the confirmation of the false, ill. and sh. 8908, 9261. The devil called the father of lies, denotes the evil from which falses proceed, 8908. To see vanity and divine lies, is predicated of the falses of doctrine and falses of life, sh. 9248; also the mouth speaking vanity, and the right-hand a right-hand of lies, 10,287 end. See False. LIE-CONCEALED, to [latere], a man from his brother, is pre- dicated of good and truth separated, 4199, compare 4189. LIE-DOWN, to [decumbere]. See the next article, 9027. LIE-DOWN, to {cubare~\, and sleep, denotes the state of tran- quillity which the regenerate experience, ill. and sh. 3696. To lie down with a woman, predicated of Rebecca, denotes the perversion and adulteration of divine truth, 3398, 3399 ; predicated of Dinah and the prince of Sheckhem, the illicit conjunction of truth derived from antiquity with the Jewish religion, 4433, 4 445; predicated of 518 LI F Reuben and his father's concubine, the adulteration of good, AGOl, G348 ; predicated of Joseph and the wife of Potiphar, the ilHcit con- junction of truth and good, 4989, 5001, 5007, 5015. The daughters of Lot lying with their father, denotes the state of impure good and its affections, when truth is altogether vastated, 2405. One lying in the bosom of another, denotes conjunction by love, 6900. To lie in the bosom of Abraham, and to lie down with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob, iu the kingdom of heaven, denotes conjunction by love with the Lord, 0900, 10,442. To lie with his fathers (meaning, to be buried), denotes resurrection into life, 0182. To bow himself and to lie or couch down like a lion, denotes the good of love in its power, and in safety from all evil, 0309. To lie or couch down be- tween his burthens, like an ass, denotes the miserable state of those with all their works who arc in the love of self and the world, 0390, compare 925/. To persuade a virgin not espoused, and lie with her, denotes the conjunction of truth with some affection of honor or gain, instead of the legitimate conjunction of good and truth, 9182 — 9180. To lie with a beast, denotes conjunction with some evil of the lusts, 9190. To lie down in bed (decumhere) , from inability to go about, denotes what is separated in the natural man, 9027. The land on which he lay promised to Jacob, denotes the good in which he was, 3705. A well and three droves of sheep lying near it, denotes the Word and all who are principled in good, 3705, 3707. Sin lying at the door, denotes evil urgent to enter in jdace of good, 3(>1, 304. LIFE [vita']. 1 . That life is love. There is no Hfe but what flows from love, good or evil, 33. The only true life is from the only true love, which is love to the Lord ; in what life and light of intelligence the angels are from love, 33, 34. The life itself of man is celestial love, 1430, 2253. It is the life of celestial love which flows down even into the lusts, and vivifies them, 1589. Life in its very esse, or love itself, is Jehovah, and the angels live in the esse of his life, because in his love, 1735. The life of the Lord is divine love towards the whole human race, 1803, 0407, 0495 ; and it is such as to transcend all human understanding, 2077. The Lord had no other life when he was iu the world but this love, and it vvas by the life of pure love that he united himself to the divine, 2253. The quality of man's life is accord- ing to the quality of his love ; happy, if it consist in love to the Lord and the neighbour, because the divine itself flows into it ; and most unhappy if it consist in the love of self and the world, because hell flows into it, 3539 ; see below, 0872. The whole life of man is his particular love acting by its continuum, which is called affection, in all that he wills, thinks, and does, and manifesting itself as delight, 3938 end, 7081, 7342. Indestructible life is predicated of good, because good is of love, and love is the very life of man, 0077. Love in its first origin is nothing but fire and flame proceeding from the Lord as a sun ; the fire or flame of this sun is the esse itself of every one's life, and this is the vital fire which fills the interiors with heat, ill. 0832, 8812; compare 4900. Man is altogether what his love is, not only in his organical principles, but in his whole body ; hence the angels are loves in form, and infernal spirits are the images of their diabolical loves, ill. 0872, 10,153. Love and faith, which exist from the Lord as the sun of heaven, make spiritual life, as heat and light from the sun L I F 519 of the world make natural life, 7082—7083. Good from the Lord gives life and its heat, which is love ; but truth from him gives illus- tration and its light, which is faith, 0504 ; that the flame or fire of life is love, its light, faith, 9037. See Fire, Light, Flame, Love. 2. The Source and Influx of Life. There is one only life, which is that of the Lord, and all live from its influx, the evil as well as the good, 290, 1954, 2021, 2658, 2700, 2880—2889, 3001, 3318, 3337— 3339, 3484, 3742, 3743, 4318—4320, 4417, 4524, 4882, 5005, 5847, 5980, 0058, 0325, 0408-0470, 0020, 7270, 8497, 8717, 8728, 9270, 9400. There is no life and esse except in those thiugs which are from the Lord, thus which are eternal, 720 ; ill. by appearances in the other life, 071. The Lord as to each essence is life, but man is only a reci- pient of life from the Lord, 202 1 . The Lord, even as to the human, has life in himself, for the human was made life itself when it was made divine, 2058, 3733. The divine good of the Lord is esse itself, and his divine truth is life thence derived, 3019; that good and truth, or will and understanding, are apparently separate, and yet only one life, 3019, 3023. Life flowing from the Lord is always the same, but it diffuses itself in an incomprehensible manner into all forms, good and evil, and is varied in them according to reception, 2888, 3001, 5847, 5980, 0407, 0472, 0473; the oneness of life notwithstanding its manifold action, ill. 4200. The recipients of Ufe seem to live from themselves, because of their correspondence with the influx of life, by which they are vivified, 3001, 3484 ; that such recipient forms are sub- stances or organs, that their quality is according to their degree of cor- resi)ondence, and that this is the correspondence of organs with life, 3484. The substances recipient of life appear to live because the influx from the Lord is continual, 3484. The influx of life does not appear to man, but life appears to be in him, because it flows from the Lord's love, which is such that it wills to be another's, 3742, 4320, 8497 ; but that its influx is manifestly perceived by the angels, 3742, 0400, 0409, 8497. Life flowing-in from the Lord, and man as the recipient form of that life, are as principal and instrumental causes, which in action are one cause ; thus the sensation of life is perceived in the instrumental as its own, 0325. Tbe influx of the Lord's life as Very Man, thus of the divine human, makes the Grand Man of heaven, 3741, 3744, 0020, 0982, 0985, 0993, 0990, 9144, 10,190. The influx and operation of the life of heaven is into the material human form, m which divine influx is terminated and finished, 3029, 3032, 3721, 3741, 3745, 5802, 5990, 0192, 0211; see below (3), 3029, 3741. All things in the universe exist and subsist from things prior to themselves, and this even to the first, consequently from the Lord, who is the only fountain of life, by the medium of the spiritual world, 4523, 4524, 10, 1 90. The life itself which fills heaven and the whole universe goes out from the Lord's divine human, thus it is divine truth contaunng in itself divine good, 0085. The all of life is from the Lord as divine good, thus from the divine itself and the divine human ; but its proce- dure and influx is by divine truth, ill. 10,190. See Influx (especially 1, 7, 10), Heaven (7), Good (23), Lord. 3. The Life of Man. What is of man's proprium is without hte, but whatever is from the Lord is human and living, 41 ; ^''^- '20. Man is nothing but an organ or vessel that receives life from the Lord, 520 LIF and the life which flows-in from the Lord is from his divine love, 331 S ; see citations above (2), 290, &c., and as to the author's experience concerning such influx, 6468, 64/0. The life of man is from the spirits associated with him as mediums, and the life of the body as a whole 9QQR ^"^ j'^*^ ^^ societies of spirits and angels, 687, 697; see below, 2886, 2887. The body of man lives from the soul, and the soul from celestial love, which is Hfe itself, 1436. The body lives from the spirit, insomuch that all sensation in the body is the sense of the spirit acting by influx, ill. 4622, 9818; see below, 3629; and as to the correspondence between external and internal sensations, 10,199. The external man derives his life principally from the internal, and such hie can only be distinctly received as the vessels of the external man are opened by scientifics and knowledges acquired sensually, 1563. 1 lie life of the internal man flows into all the affections of the external, and is varied therein according to ends ; hence man may live a worldly lite, a corporeal life, &c.; and his life is according to the ends regarded by him, 1909 ; ill 5128, 5175. It is the Lord himself flowin^-in by the internal man who alone sees, &c., in the external, because he alone lives, 1954; see below, 2886, 2887. The life of man flows in from the Lord, who from pure mercy adjoins man to himself, and causes him to hve to eternity, 2021. Man partakes of life from the Lord in the degree that he loves his neighbour, 2253. Man lives from the l^ord by the goods and truths of doctrine, ill. 2538; compare 3690; and that life is in the affections, not in the scientifics or truths of doc- trine without them, 3849. All men, even the worst, have life from the Lord, but it is various according to reception, 681, 2706; and with the evd IS spiritual death, 4320 ; ill. 4417. Life consists in free- OQ^Q ^P^^^^Pends upon it, because it consists in affection and delight, 28/3, 0/86 end; as to affection and delight, see below, 3293; and see Liberty. The reception of life flowing-in from the Lord is various according to the genius of every one who receives it, 2888. There ought to be correspondence between life and its recipients, and the quahty of the recipients is according to the degree of such correspond- ence, 3001; see below, 3318. There is no one, whether man, spirit, ooo^^ /o, * ^^'^^^ "^""^ ^^^^5 ^^^"^ others, and finally from the Lord, 2886, 4319, 5847, 5986, 6467-6472, 9128. Man could not live, but will and thought would instantly cease, if communication by spirits and angels were taken away from him, 2887, 9715. The life of man consists m cupidities and phantasies against good and truth, and this ^o-'y^u'""?-^ H'^r^ ^P^"^^ notwithstanding the Lord's power, ill. re V ./ . ^f ^^^ "**"^^^ '"^^ ^5 ^''om good and truth, like the hie of the rational ; but his good is the delight of natural affection, and his truth all that belongs to science, 3293. The affection or good ot the natural man without the scientific part is a kind of vitality such as infants have but the scientific part is nothing at all by itself ; thus Qono''°^xT^ perfected by the other, and the life itself is from good, 3-93. Natural good is interior and exterior; by the exterior part it communicates with the body, and makes the Hfe of the senses and actions ; by the interior part it communicates with the interior or rational man and makes the natural life of the spirit, which remains after death, 3293 The vessels receptive of life both in the rational and in the natural man are not in correspondence with its influx, but LIF 521 are made contrary by hereditary evil; they are disposed into nrdpr however, as far as possible by the life of the Lord Eg i^ whkft divine love, 3318; and because they are contrary to o^rd"; mLn s fnZr^«^r^Tr'^^""^/^ ^^^^^^ ^^^ ^"g^^«> -^^ "ot by Common influx, o8o0.

The sweetness tnd peace of angelic life Tn consequence of their not living from themselves, but from the Lord was sensibly perceived by the author; the truth concerning such influx also confirmed from heaven, 6469; how grievous it is to those who are not m the good of charity when they perceive that all life flows from • fl ^1-^ ?

See Fallaciks, Doubt (2568, 4099, 4638). The life of man consists in three degrees corresponding to the three heavens, and when he IS in the hfe of good and truth, he is a little image of heaven, and in virtue of that life an image of the Lord, 3747. The life of man 522 LIF consists in the delight of his affection, which prevails in all that he wills, thinks, and does, 3038 end. Nearly all think that life is m them, not that it flows in ; yet it may be concluded from the influx ot good and truth from the Lord, and of what is evil and false from hell, that man does not live from himself, ill 4151 ; and further as to the influx of perception and thought, 9128. The whole life of man con- sists in the power of willing and thinking, and, in the stnctest sense, in thinking and willing what is good and true, ^lol, 4417 ; that in order to this man must be elevated above the sensual life, 6201 ; com- pare 6315, 6383, 6384. The life of speech is from the thought, the life of works from the will, and the life of both from the intention or end in them, ill. 5128. Life in man is one, but it flows and acts vari- ously according to the organs, 4206. What man thinks to be true makes his intellectual life, and what he is impressed with as good his voluntary life ; hence, that temptation combats are with the very lite ot man, 4274 ; compare 303. Evil spirits persuade themselves that the life of the will and understanding are their own, but their life is spi- ritual death, from experience, 4417. The vital principle of man is spiritual fire or heat, which is love, and this is turned ^i^h the evil into a consuming fire, 4906, further ill. 5071 ; see below, a097, 0032. The whole vitality of the body consists in the five senses; thus the body is nothing but a receptacle of sensations and of life from them, and it only appears to live because the sensitive and the instrumental act as one, 5077. The senses and all things of the body perceive and act from the influx of heaven, 9278. The diverse thoughts and actions of man are from the influx of one life from the Lord, and this, as a single force, acts variously according to the construction of forms, 52a9 Variations of intelligence and of love with man are from the lio'ht of heaven and its heat variously flowing-in ; that they are corre- spondent to the changes of natural light and heat, 5097 ; compare 3001 Spiritual Hght makes the Ufe of man's understanding, spiritual heat the Ufe of his will; and this heat and light in their first origin are the divine good of the divine love and divine truth proceeding there- from, ill. ()032. Man's inmost nature is such that he can receive the divine, and not only so, but appropriate it by acknowledgment and affection; hence he is unlike the animals, and cannot die, 5114, 10,591. There is influx from the Lord into all men, but such influx, with those who are not in charity, can only impart life, and as far as possible preserve them from evil, 6475. Life received from the Lord flows in by the inmost part of man, and through his interiors into his exteriors ; hence the appearance that life is in ultimatcs, 6451. Life in exteriors is obscure compared with its state in the interiors, and this because innumerable things flowing into exteriors appear in one common form, 6451. There is an immediate influx of life from the Lord into the exteriors of man as well as into his interiors ; and besides the imme- diate influx of life from him, there is a mediate influx by heaven, 6472, 6495, 8685 and citations, 8701; and that the all of life with man flows in through heaven from the Lord, 8717, 9276 and citations. Life flowing in from the Lord cannot be appropriated without its appear- ing to be of the proprium of him who receives it ; yet they who are in the Lord manifestly perceive its influx, 8497 ; see above (2) 3484, 3742. The Lord dwells in his own, thus in what is divine with man, and not LIF 523 in the proprium of any one, sh. 9338; compare 10,153 The natnrAl itrn7- "" 1 '1 r^ ^^ "^^ ""*i^^ th-t of the milLnii s^^^ ^Kt^iKu^^^^^^^^^ frntarn'^1 1^^ "^^ ""'' 1 chrrUyTn?£h, %ofl ThS T^^o fountains of life in man, the heart and the lungs, and the heart Ts fir.f of wiJUnd iSf!^ ^^\ ^'[' ""^ ^^^ ^^"^^^^^ i« ^^^ two faculties faitrinTf^rf 1 /l''^' ^.^J^ ^^" "^^ ^'^^ of these in the truth of £ r9637' Td thVr?-''' ""f^' ^r ""'"'''^'y '^'^ conjunction in the u?dLTndit' ^9^ "tE UfZ T' ^'^l' °^^ '^"^^^^^^^^ corrr. »« >n the spiritual world, and the body m the natural, passages cited, Internai; (2) ■ see- nuA above (.3), 687. 1436. 4622, 3629. 3745. 3741, 5oT7!9278, as to the vital heat of the body (1) (i832. 6564 ; and as to the appearanee t £ hfe IS in It, (2), 3484, 3742, 6325.

There is no eternal life except in what proceeds from the Lord, 720. By eternal life is meant eternal felicity, 726, ill. 3938. Men are recipients of eternal life, and it is ol such reception that existere is predicated, but of life itself esse, .3938. There is no eternal or spiritual good but what proceeds from the Lord, and is appropriated to man by its conjunction with truth ; the delights of the natural life are only good so far as this good is contained in them, ill. 3951; the quality of eternal life from their conjunction, ilL 3957. The eternal life of the just is life from good, and because such good is from the Lord it carries intelligence and wisdom along with it, 5070 Life is predicated of heaven and eternal felicity, because all who receive life from the Lord come into heaven, which consists in the wisdom of good and intelligence of truth, 5407. Fhe life of heaven in man is love to the Lord and charity towards the "e-ghbour ; hell, on the contrary, is from the loves of self and the worid, 2041. 3010. 4225, 4776 6210. 7255. 7366. 7369, 7490. 8232. 8678. 10.455 10 714—10 724 10,741—10,747.

All are able to understand good and truth, but the evil have no affection of truth for the sake of life, and hence they cannot be reformed ; that the contrary is the case with the good, 3539; that the life of truth is wholly from good, 3607; and that it derives life from good by passing into the will when man lives according to it, 4884. Truth is said to have life from itself with those who are in the affection of truth, when they do not live according to knowledge, because then some pleasure or delight of the love of self is adjoined to it ; that such life must be extinguished before they can receive life and felicity from the Lord, 3610. The life of those who become regenerate is at first according to external truth, which is only moral life, by degrees, however, they are led into a life according to internal truth, which is spiritual hfe, ill, 3690. The truth of faith derives its life from the will, not the understanding, ill, 38/0. The natural man seems to have a life of his own when he is elevated to dignities, and occupies an eminence above others, but the spiritual man when he is in humiliation and least of all, 3913. The Christian life in its very essence is to will well and do well, 4/41. Spiritual life, such as the angels have, consists in the affection of good and the affection of truth, and man is introduced iuto it by those things which are of faith and charity, 5562. Spiritual life is derived from the good of truth, and is both interior and exterior, the latter being in the natural man, 5614; ill. 5826, 6427, compare 9051; and that the spiritual principle or spiritual life in its very essence, is divine truth proceeding from the divine human, 6685. Evils of life and falses of doctrine reside in the natural man, and hence temptations begin when the natural receives the spiritual, 6097 ; that such temptations are carried^to desperation in order to extinguish the natural life, 8567. When man is affected with truth for the sake of life, he rejects glory and fame as ends, and cherishes the good of life, which is charity to- wards the neighbour, 624/. He who is in the good of life when he begins to think evilly, is instantly elevated above sensual things, and so carried from light to light by the angels who are with him, 6315. The life of faith and love is derived from spiritual light and spiritual heat, which exist from the sun of heaven, 7082 — 7084 ; and that its changes and varieties correspond to the changes and variations of na- tural heat and light, 37. Life consists in willing what is good and be- lieving what is true, and they only who so will and believe are living men ; but death consists in willing what is evil and believing what is false, and they are dead who so will and beheve ; passages cited from the Word, 7494. The life of love includes all the requisite wisdom of that love, ill. by the instincts of animals, &c., 7750 ; more fully ill. 9817, 9818; see below (11), 2494. The life is according to faith before regeneration, and afterwards according to charity, ill. 8013; the state before and after regeneration further ill. 9278, 10,729. In the man of the church the life of piety and the life of charity are con- joined, but the verimost worship of the Lord consists in the life of charity, and not in piety without it, 8252 — 8254, sh. 8255, 8256, 9393. By a life of piety without charity, man consults his own well- being only, but with the life of charity conjoined, he consults the wel- fare of his neighbour, 8254. The Christian life, called spiritual hfe, by which the Lord is principally worshiped, is a life according to his pre- 527 If cepts, for it is by these precepts that a man knows what faith and chanty consist m, 8257; that Christian good is formed in truths, otherwise It IS only natural and does not give eternal life, 8772; and that spiritual life is the life of faith and charity, 8902. A life Tc cording to the divine precepts is a life according to truths and goods, which are eternal laws of order; and when man Hves according to order he hves m the Lord, who is order itself, 8512, 9313. A life according to order is to be led by good, because order requires the divme to flow m by the will, which is most interior; a life not ac- cording to order is to be led by truth, 8513. The life of good and truth IS froni the Lord's influx into good and truth, and this life is lost when the influx IS no longer perceived, 8801, 8868 end.

Truth becomes of the life when man loves it and lives according to it, before that it is only in the memory as a scientific and not in the man himself, 10,153; ill. 10,199. When man believes otherwise than he lives, truth is conjoined with '!l ""l ^-"."^ """^ ^^^ ^^^'^' ^"^ *^is conjunction cannot be dissolved without distracting the spiritual life; the sin against the holy spirit, tlL 8882. The spiritual life consists in the truths of faith, because good forms itself in truths, 9034, 9058; hence, it cannot be given if those truths are wilfully extinguished, 9075, 9152 ; or if they are not re- ceived 10,/31 The hfe of faith is to act according to the Lord's pre- cepts from obedience; the life of charity to do them from love, 9193. ?? ^^ "^rf no^ ^Zi ^^^ ^'^^ °^ ^^'^^ ^^ "^"st be P""fied from evils and falses, 10,026 The beginning of all spiritual life is the acknowledg- ment of the Lord ; from this acknowledgment faith, and from the truths of faith purification, ill. and sh. 10,083. Love and faith cannot proceed from man, and as love and faith make worship, neither can worship proceed from him, but all hfe in them, and hence the elevation ot worship to heaven is from the Lord, 10,203. The life of heaven cannot be infused into man unless the life of faith and love exist with him, and the hfe of faith and love consists in keeping the Lord's pre- cepts, 10,578. ^ 1 1 . The Life after Death, is only a continuation of life, for it is entered upon almost immediately after the death of the body ; the author s experience, 70. When man first comes into the other life he imagines that he is still in the world, and even in his body, 320. 1 he hie of the spirit is most perfect, and as all life consists in sense, their senses are most exquisite, 322, 1880, 1881; see below, 4623. Ihe hte of angels and spirits is not sustained by food such as men eat, ,.?^ 7. Soo^^*"^ ^'•"ths received from the Lord, 681, 1460; and the hte of mfernals by the opposite, 8410. No angel or spirit could Hve It he were not joined to some society, and thus introduced into the harmony of many, 687; but that the evil are not willing to be con- vinced they do not live of themselves, 3743. Every man is associated with some society in the life of the body, and after death he comes into that society, and there enjoys his own verimost life, 687, 697 ; that -no!: ^^"^^^*^^^o"s are according to love, because love is the life itself, /085, ill. 8700. The life of infernal spirits consists in their lusts and 528 LI F LIF 529 phantasies, which is a life of death, and is turned into fearful torments, 695, 696. Man lives after the death of the body in virtue of the life of faith and love, by which the Lord conjoins him to himself, 711, 2021. The quality of man's life after death is according to the end which he loved, for the end or ruling love forms his life, l;'i6S; that the life of every one remains after death, from experience, 4227 ; see Language (4) end. The only hfe known to evil spirits is the life of their lusts, and hence, when the devils were cast out of the maniac they prayed to enter into the swine, 1/42. Lifernal spirits perceive a kind of vitality in the delight of their lusts, 1860. The life of in- fernal spirits is contracted from all those ends, thoughts, and works, which flow from the love of self, and that of good spirits from the love of the neighbour, 2228. All consociations in the otlKT life arc formed according to these lives and not according to knowledges without life, 2049, 2228, 2261. Man's perfection and fehcity in the other life is according to the quality of his truths and of the goods in them, 2261 end. They who have lived in love to the Lord and charity to- wards the neighbour have angelic intelligence and wisdom concealed in the inmost part of their interior memory, and they come into its use in the other life, 2494. It is impossible for the life to be changed and the evil admitted into heaven after death ; for they would become as helpless as new-born infants if the life of the love of self and the world were taken away from them ; the author's experience, 2871, 9225 end; briefly, 10,749. Human life, from infancy to old age, is nothing but a progression of state from the world to heaven, and death is the passage itself; hence, the angels who are with man have no idea of times, but of states of hfe, 3016; that man is introduced into life in a state of tranquillity, &c., 3696. Man has a natural life in the spirit as well as in the body, for the natural life is the ultimate plane into which the spiritual falls, and it is only its exterior communication with the world that ceases at death, 3293; further ill, 3498, 3.539. The ideas of those who have truth without good in the other life appear closed, but the ideas of those who have good appear open, and like an image of heaven, 3607, 8868. Certain spirits seen by the author in the other life, who had been sailors and rustics, had so little life that they were like machines scarcely animated ; that life was breathed into them by the angels, 3647. The felicity of eternal life is from the love of the Lord and the neighbour, and it cannot be perceived in the life of the body, because the interiors flow into cares and anxieties which occupy the exteriors, 3938. The life of man continues after death because he is capable of being conjoined to the Lord in thought and affection, 4364 ; ill. 5114. The sensitive life of spirits is twofold, real and unreal; real in heaven because from the life of the Lord, and unreal in hell, ill. 4623. The life of evil spirits is unreal because it is the life of the proprium in which the Lord cannot be present ; how they endeavour to persuade others that all things are ideal even in heaven, 4623. The whole life of every one is laid open after death, even as to the most minute particulars, 4633; and its quality remains the same as it was in the body, 4663. They who are inclined to deny the hfe after death are confirmed in their denial when they consult scientiflcs, they who are inclined to believe in it see innumerable con- firmations, 4760. They who have lived a good moral hfo, and yd L ascribed all things to nature rather than the divine, are gradually divested of their false principles after death, 4941 ; and that the case IS similar in other cases according to the life, 4943, 4944, 4947. Eternal life consists in receiving from the Lord that which is of life, namely, the intelligence of truth and the wisdom of good, 5070 ; that such intelligence and wisdom are from the light of heaven and from Its heat, which are living, 5097, 5114. The life which remains after death is not man's external life, but the internal life of his thought and will, ill. 5128, 6495. The state of man's life after death previous to his introduction into the Grand Man, resembles the progress of food taken into the mouth, &c., 5175, 5176 ; they who have not loved any use therefore dwell in filth, 5395. The little spiritual life pertaining to those who have lived in evil, even after ages of vastation, shown from experience ; and that the little life they have is from remains, 5561. The life of the spirit resembles the life of the body as to walking one amongst another, dwelling in houses, &c., yet these are only changes of the states of life, ill. 5605. The Hfe of every one is according to the interior form which he has acquired to himself by willing and acting, and by thinking and speaking, 6468. All in heaven are in the Lord's life, because they are in truth and good proceeding from him, 7212; that such divine proceeding is the life and light which fills heaven, and indeed the whole universe, 6685. The very delight of man's life is manifested in the other life, because all external restraints are then removed, 8293. The felicities of eternal life are to love the Lord and the neighbour, to understand truth, to be wise in good, and to perceive blessedness therefrom, 8747. The unhappi- ness of infernal spirits is from the evils and falses which occupy the place of goods and truths, and which make spiritual death; still they live because they were born men with the faculty of receiving life from the Lord, 9008. The life of man after death is the life of his love and faith, and such as his love and faith were in the world his life remains to eternity, 10,596; that he comes into the other life immediately after death, and it is then manifest whether the hfe of heaven or the life of hell is in him, 10,720, 10,741, 10,743, 10,745.

The Life of Goods and Truths, makes the true life of man, for it is only in good and truth that there can be life from the Lord, 3623 ; the quahty of good and truth vivified by the Lord, and not vivified, briefly sh. 671. Good and truth considered in themselves have no Hfe, but are only instrumental to the life which they derive from the affection of man's love, 1904, 3077. Truth derives all its life from good, for it is only a vessel recipient of good, dl. 3607. Truth is said to have life of its own when some delight, not good, is conjoined to it ; when this life is extinguished, truth is really vivified, 3607, 3610, compare 7967. The hfe of truth is the life lived by the spiritual man, hence truth, when it passes into the will and into act, is called good, 6904. Good is contained in truth and acts in it, as the life of the soul in the variously composed fibres of the body, 4149, 9258. Good makes the life because it is of the will, and the will is the man himself; but truth makes the life only so far as it proceeds from good, ///. 10,110; and that divine truth is also the procedure of divine good, 10,196, 10,262. See above, (3) 2538, 3849, 3293, 3318; (8) 3951 ; (10) 1895, 2261, 3203, 3870, 8801, 9300; and see Good (21), Internal (7), Influx (3), Truth. 16. The Life of the Word, consists in its perpetual reference to the Lord who is the life itself, and without such life the letter is only a dead body, 2, 3, 8943. The life and soul of the Word is the in- ternal sense as it is understood by the angels, which appears when the sense of the letter as it were vanishes, 1405. The life of the Lord is in all the contents of the Word, because it proceeded from him by the medium of heaven, 1461. The Word is a dead letter, but when read it is vivified by the Lord according to every one's faculty and state of charity and innocence, 1776, 1771. The internal hfe of the Word becomes more and more manifest to those who live the life which it enjoins, when they come into thought concerning it, and read it from the affection of truth, ill. 3690. The Word is opened to those who love the Lord and their neighbour, because they are in the very princi- ples of truth and good, and by its medium they are associated with angels, and led into the life of truth and good, 3773. All the law and all the prophets were said by the Lord to be founded on love to God and love to the neighbour, thus, on life itself and not on faith without life, ill. 5826. The literal sense of the Word is like a body which lives from the internal sense as from its soul, and this again from the inmost which derives all its sanctity and life from the Lord, 8943. Man's own intelligence is spiritually dead, but what he derives from the Word is in itself living, 8941, 8943, compare 3451, 3452, and then 9410. See Internal (9), Inspiration, Influx (2), Illus- tration, Idea, Language (6), Light, Truth, Lord, Word. 17. Signification of life, to live, ^c. To live signifies to have faith in the Lord, 290. To live to eternity, in the opposite sense denotes to live in damnation or to Hve the life of death, 304.

Let Pharaoh live (by the life of Pharaoh), is an ancient form of asseveration, and denotes what is certain, 5449, 54,54. This do and ye shall live, denotes what is certain if life be received from the divine, 5459. To arise, to go, and to live, denotes elevation to t\\Q spiritual life, ill. 5605, 5614.

When soul is put for life it has various significations, as, life in common, the life of the will, the life of the understanding, and the life of truth and good, 7021, 9050. To live according to order is to be led by the Lord by good; to live not according to order is to be led by truth, 8512, ill. 8.513. To live is predicated of the will, to believe of the under- standing, 8882. See to Go, to Go forth, to Journey, to Inhabit. 18. Passages in illustration.

LIFT, to. To lift up the hand denotes power in spiritual things ; to lift up the foot, power in natural things, 5327, 5328; ill, 10,241. See Elevation. LIG 535 LIGHT [lux\ 1. Lumen as distinguished from luxy is the obscure light of truth with the regenerate, in the first state after temptations, 854. The supposed good and truth of man, which appear as light before regeneration, are thick darkness, and are compared to night ; but good and truth from the Lord with him are life and light, and are compared to day, 20, 21. The first state after temptations when the truths of faith begin to appear, is like the first dawning of light, some obscurity of the night still remaining, 865, 880, 883, 4283, 6829. See Day-dawn, Twilight, Morning. The life of lusts appears as a coal fire, and the false as a lumen thence derived ; in this lumen evil spirits dwell, but it is turned into darkness when light from heaven flows in, 1528; ilL 3224. Evil spirits see one another m the other life, they also see many representatives which exist in the world ot spirits, and this from the light of heaven, but turned into a lumen as from a coal fire with them, 3195, 6000, 7870. When the knowledges with which man is imbued are filled with genuine goods, he comes into more and more illumination, but if the goods be not genuine he comes into the lumen of infatuation, 3665 . The evil are capable of reasoning from their own lumen, and even more sublimely than others to the appearance, but true rationality consists in knowing good to be good, and evil to be evil, &c., and this is from the light of heaven, 4156, 10 227. There is true light and false lumen ; they who are m good are in illustration from true light, but they who are in evil are m false lumen, ill. 4214. They who have lived in a false lumen while in the world, are in a similar lumen after death, and reason from it, 4214. The light of truth with the evil is confused and darkened by light trom heaven, and when they remove themselves from the light of heaven, a yellow lumen as of sulphur succeeds, in which they appear like spectres, and their truths like phantasms, 4416. The lumen of evil spirits is various according to the false and evil in which they are; that they can never receive divine truth, because its light is instantly changed with them, 4416, briefly eV^. 5847. .The evil as well as the good live from the Lord, but their life is spiritual death ; its quality appearing as lumen from a coal fire, and smoky, &c., 4417. Ihe hells are said to be in darkness, because in falses, but by this darkness is meant the sulphurous lumen in which they appear, which is in- stantly turned into darkness when light from heaven flows m, 4418, 4531 6000, 7870 ; a case in illustration showing the quality ot intel- ligence from the proprium and from the divine by the appearance of limits 4419. They who are in hell appear to one another in their own lumen like men, and according to their phantasies not unhandsome, but when they are viewed by angels that lumen is dissipated, and they appear like devils and monsters, 4533; thek monstrous appearance in the light of heaven further shewn, 4674, 5013, 50o7, 50o8 The arrangement of falses from their loves makes an appearance of light about infernal spirits, but within it all is dusky and monstrous ; the light around angels, on the contrary, is from the flame of celestia love, which occupies the midst, 5530. The scientifics of the natural man are in a lumen almost like that of the sensual sight, and this lumen is such that it leads into falses and evils, unless it be illuminated by the light of truth, 6004 end, 6310. Man's state when in sensual lumen is such that the light of heaven is turned into darkness by it ; and 536 LIG ^ ^^ the mind filled with scandals and defilements ; seriatim passages con- cerning this lumen and concerning elevation from it, G'MO — G315. All those who live in contempt of rational and spiritual things, gene- rally, such as live in mere pleasures, and in dishonourable sloth, the avaricious and adulterers, are in sensual lumen, 0310. All the hells are in sensual lumen, and also some spirits not particularly evil, in whom the rational sense has not been cultivated, (i3 1 1 . The sensual sphere so prevails because it receives influx from the most subtle and malignant spirits of hell ; hence if man be not elevated above it by the good of faith he must needs perish, 6312. As man is elevated from the sensual lumen, he is brought into a milder lumen, and at length into celestial light ; how well the elevation of man from sensual things was known to the ancients, 6313. The man who is elevated by the good of faith is alternately in sensual and in interior lumen, for he is in sensual lumen when occupied with the cares of the world, and with pleasures, &c., but he is elevated from one lumen to another the instant he begins to think evil, 631.5. They who are in sensual lumen believe themselves illuminated when they confirm the doctrinals of their churches ; and this, because the light of the world appears clear so long as the light of heaven does not flow in, ill. 6865. The glory of the world from the love of self kindles the intellectual light of those who are in evil, so that it sparkles and appears like truth, 6907. While the light of the world sparkles with the evil, the light of heaven is thick darkness to them, and the contrary with the good, 6907. Man is in darkness as to the things of heaven when he is in the sen- sual state and its lumen, because the sensual faculties are the subjects of fallacies and falses, ill. 6948 ; examples of the principal of these fallacies, 5084 ; and the difference between the faculty of reasoning from the proprium and being wise from the light of heaven, ilL 10,227. The natural mind and its scientifics are in the light of the world, which is called the lumen of nature, but the rational mind in the light of heaven, which is spiritual, 7130; further ill. 9103; and that the light of the world is called natural lumen, 9227. The natural lumen is acquired by man from the senses, and from this lumen he can see nothing but what pertains to self and the world, 8636 ; not even when he goes to the Word, 89 11, 9382. Man could never know any- thing of spiritual and divine things from the lumen of nature without revelation ; and that all the knowledge concerning God, &c., has com- menced in one way or other from an ancient revelation, 8944. A consuming fire and a false lumen make the life of the evil, as the fire of love and the light of faith make the life of the good, ill. 9141. They who are in love with truth and good for the sake of themselves and the world, are not illustrated by divine truth, but by a false lumen which is turned into darkness on the approach of light from heaven, 10,330. The intellectual mind is only opened in those who perceive and love truths from good ; with all others, however dexterously they may be able to reason, there is only a false lumen, 10,675. See False, Sense, Darkness. Some suppose the joys of heaven to consist in a lumen of glory, &c., 455. See Heaven (1), Glory, and see below (3) . 2. The Light of the World and the Light of Heaven. There are two lights, the light of heaven from the Lordj the light of the world from L I O 537 the sun, 3223, 3224, 5477. The light of heaven is of the interior or spiritual man, the light of the world of the external or natural man ; the quality of each briefly sh. 3223, 3224. Between these lights and all the objects belonging to them, there is correspondence ; hence, all things seen in the light of the worid, or the natural man, are re- presentations of such as exist in the light of heaven, 3223 end, 3225, 3337. Representations or appearances in the other life are indeed ap- pearances, but they are alive and real because from the light of heaven, which is the light of wisdom and of Hfc from the Lord ; the things seen from the light of the worid, on the contrary, are not real, only so far as they are conjoined with those things which are of the light of heaven, 3485. The light of heaven is immensely more perfect than the light of the world, insomuch that one ray of the latter represents myriads of the former, 3223. So far as any one is in the light of the world, so far those things which are in the light of heaven appear to him as darkness, 3224, 3337, 10,227. The imagination of man is from the forms and shapes seen in the world's light, wonderfully modi- fied ; the interior imagination or thought from similar things seen in the light of heaven ; such images also are inanimate, but the influx of the Lord's life causes them to live, 3337; see below (5). Generally, things seen in the light of the worid are dead, but those seen in the light of heaven are living, and when the former are obliterated the latter remain, 3717; the former ill. 9103. Those things which per- tain to the light of heaven can only appear in the light of the world representatively, as the mind, for examine, appears in the face ; when the light of heaven appears in its clearness then the representative images of the darkness are dissipated, 4835. When the light of heaven in man falls into those things which are in the light of the world, it vivifies them and causes them to be perceived by man intel- lectually, thus, as man, 5114. So long as man is only in the light of the world, which is the case while he is unregenerate, he is in hell, but when he comes into the light of heaven also by regeneration, he is in heaven, ill. 10,156. 3. Light in the Heavens is from the Lord, who is the sun of heaven ; hence the modifications of light in objects, which are angels, 1053, 1521, 1529, 1530, 8812. The state of light in heaven is according to the , intelligence and wisdom of the angels, 1524, 1529, 1530, 339. The Lord appears as a sun to the celestial, as a moon to the spiritual, 1053, 1521, 1837, 2776,3636,4696,7173, 10,130, 10,809 ; iV/. 7270, 8812; ill. and passages cited, 9684; ill. from the Word, 1529—1531, 1861, 3195, 7083. Where the Lord appears as a sun, is the east of heaven ; where he appears as a moon, the south, 9684. The first proceeding of the Lord's love does not enter heaven, but appears as a radiant belt around the sun, 7270. The Lord, as a sun, is the common centre of heaven, and all the angels are in aspect with him, thus in his presence, 3633, 9489, 9828, 9864, 10,130, 10,146, 10,189, 10,420, 10,702. The light which flows from the Lord as a sun is his proceeding divine truth, which makes the intelligence of the angels, 3195, 3339—3341, 3636, 3643, 5400, 8644, 9399, 9548, 9684, 10,691, 10,703. The beautiful colours which appear in heaven are the variations or modifica- tions of its light, thus, they are appearances of truth from good, 1042, 1043, 10.53, 1621, 3993, 4530, 4677, 4742, 4922, 9466, 9905. The 538 L IG differences of light in heaven are as manifold as the angelic societies, because so various are the differences of good and truth, or of wisdom and intelligence, thus of the reception of light, 4414. There is no state corresponding to night in heaven, but only like the morning tvvi- light, and this from the proprium of the angels, 5579, 6110. The celestial angels who are principled in love to the Lord are in such life and light as it is scarcely possible to describe, 34. The light in which the angels live compared with the light of this world, is like the sun at noon-day compared with the light of a candle, 1053. The light of heaven which is from divine truth is a thousand times brighter than the noon-day hght of this world, 5400. The angels derive no light from the sun of this world, for they are above or within the sphere of that Hght; when they look into it also, the Hght of this world is as thick darkness to them, 1521, 1783, 1880. It is weU known in heaven that they derive their light from the Lord, but not so in the worid of spirits, 1529. The light of the atmospheres in heaven is beautiful beyond description ; its appearances likened to the sparkling of diamonds, of aU manner of precious stones, of colours, of flowers, of gold and silver, of infants sporting, of rainbows, of the splendour of pearls, &c., 1621—1625, 4528, 9577; seriatim passages concerning the light in which the angels live, 1521—1533, 1619—1632. The speech of the angels is sometimes manifested in the world of spirits like flaming light, 1645. Spiritual ideas are expressed by variations of heavenly light, but celestial by variations of flame, which move the affections ; angelic speech also is iHustrated by representatives, Jby paradisiacal scenery, &c., appearing in the light of heaven, 2157, 3343 — 3347, 4528, 6486, 7089, 8733, 8920. See Language (3). The celestial (proceeding) of the Lord manifests itself before the angels like the flaming brightness of the sun ; the spiritual, like its proceeding light, 2231 end. The light of heaven not only iUuminates the sight of spirits and angels, but at the same time the understanding; hence, the quantity and quality of their understanding is as the quantity and quality of their light, 2776; see below, 3339, 9103. The internal sense of the Word, which does not appear in the light of the worid, is most manifest and clear in the light of heaven, 3086. There is actually light in heaven infinitely brighter than light upon earth ; and in this light angels and spirits see one another and all the glorious objects of heaven, 3195. The light of heaven appears lucid, similar to light in the worid, but it differs in this respect, that it is nothing but wisdom from the Lord ; passages showing that the Lord is light, 3195 ; and that the divine human was the light of heaven from eter- nity, 3195; see below, 4180. The loves and their affections are re- presented with inexpressible variety by flames in heaven, and truths by innumerable modifications of Hght, 3222. The Hghts and heats which affect the internal man are manifestly perceived in the other life, and the angels are in more light and heat in the degree they are in more inteHigence and wisdom, 3339 ; ilL 3484 ; that there is a lumen also in the heUs, but that it is the lumen of infatuation, 3340 ; see above (1). Nothing can be represented in the other Hfe, except by the intermingling of light and shade ; that aU such light is from the Lord, and aU shade from the proprium, 3341. It is the most uni- versal of truths that the Lord is the sun of heaven, and that all light LIG 539 n the other life proceeds from him ; in this proceeding light there is in- telhgence and wisdom, and in his proceeding heat love ; and from this univ^ersal correspondence aU other correspondences are derived, 3636. J043; that heaven is m a serene aura of light and heat, and heU in thick darkness and cold, 3643; that the light of the angels has intel- jf iT77i . ^'^^T !"in' ^^^^ ^"^ "^^^^^^»^' ^717, 3993 and citations ; 4413, 4415 4^26, 4o30, 7719 ; and that aU truth is from the light of the sun of heaven, 3862. The thoughts and affections of- the angels are nothing but vanations or modifications of celestial light and heat proceeding from the Lord as a sun ; the responses given by the resplen- dence of light m the Urim and Thummim, ex, 3862, 9905. See Precious Stones. Light in heaven is never obscured, but the sun and moon perpetually shine there, nevertheless it appears obscure, and is extinguished with those who are in contrary principles, 4060. Be- fore the coming of the Lord the influx of the divine itself gave light in heaven, and by heaven to the human race; after his coming, the divme human itself gave light, ill 4180. Those who are in heaven can see from its light dl and everything in the worid of spirits, and even in hell ; the angels of the superior heavens also can see all things in the inferior, but not contrariwise unless there be correspond- ence and a medmm, ill. from experience, 5427. Only they who are in the third heaven can see the sun of heaven, others see the light from It, and also the moon, 7173 ; what a clear and great light the spirits of Mercury were carried into, 71 74. The light in the habitations of the angels is according to the intelligence and wisdom of their minds, and in proportion to their light is the darkness of those who are in oppo- sites, 7/19; that the light of heaven is thick darkness to those who are in falses, ill. 8918. Comparison with the sun and light of the worid to show what is the quaHty of the divine good of the divine love of the Lord, and what the quality of its proceeding truth ; that the latter has good in it, as light heat, &c., 8644, 10,196. Divine truth, which shines before the angels as light, gives them intelligence and wisdom variously, according to its reception in good, 9103 In the inmost heaven, the Word, which is divine truth proceeding from the Lord, appears as flaming light, in the middle heaven as shining light, 9468. Light in the celestial kingdom or inmost heaven does not appear as light, but as flame, because they are principled in the good of love ; m the spiritual kingdom, or the middle heaven, it ap- pears white, but immensely transcending the light of the worid, be- cause the mhabitants are in truth, 9570; that heaven is illuminated by divine truth proceeding from divine good, thus from the Lord as a sun, 9571 and citations. See Sun. All things in heaven appear re- fulgent as with gold, and silver, and precious stones, because the angels are m the intelligence of truth and the wisdom of good, and their in- teriors are reflected in such correspondences, 10,227 end. See Heaven \*oj. 4. The Author's Experience, concerning the light in which spirits and angels dwell, was so common as to render it quite familiar to him, 1522. The surpassing splendour of the light seen by him in their mansions, 1523. How greatly the light in heaven exceeds that in the world of spirits, and this according to their superior inteHigence and wisdom, 1524. The golden light of those who are in the affection of 540 LIG good, and the silver light of those who are in the affection of truth, 1525; and that the spirits described in this place belong to the pro- vince of the eye, 1525, cited in the original Index ; but compare 1623, 4528. The sparkling light as of diamonds in which he thought abstractly from material ideas, 1526, 4413. The opening of his in- ternal sight to such a degree, that he saw the Lord as a moon, but not as a sun, 1531; see above (3), 7173. What wonderful thmgs appear in the light of heaven, and that such were seen by the prophets when their internal sight was opened, 1532 — 1534, 1619, 1626. What a superior light they who were of the most ancient church live in, 1117, compare 4328. What life and lucidity there is in the at- mospheres, paradises, rainbows, palaces, and habitations, which are the immediate outbirths of the light of heaven, 1620. Description of rainbows of variously coloured light seen by the author, 1624, 1625. What beautiful representations, by lights of various colours, &c., were shown to him by a spirit who belonged to the province of the eye, 4412. With what amazement recently departed spirits first perceived the light of the other Ufe, and how the good are led into the further knowledge of it, 4415. The snowy cold light of those who have con- firmed themselves in truths, and yet have lived an evil life, thus, who are in persuasive faith, 4416, 4802, particularly 5128; and that truths are lucid in the other life even without good, but as the light of winter, 5219. The light similar to that of the world into which some spirits first come, their unbeUef in any superior light, their astonishment that they have eyes and senses, &c., 4527. The delight and astonish- ment of one who had been a famous botanist when he perceived the sweetness and beauty of the flowers in a paradisiacal heaven, and the sparkhng brilliancy of its light, 4529. The variety with which intel- lectual light was given, taken away, diminished, and moderated with the author while thinking, speaking, and writing; and that he per- ceived it as an illumination illustrating the substances of interior sight, &c., 6608. See Illustration. That spirits have seen through his eyes those they have known in the world, and various objects in natural light, 1880, 1954, 4527, 4622, 5862, 9791, 10,813. 5. The Light of the Understanding, of Intelligence^ of Wisdom, ^c. The light of inteUigence is procured by knowledges, the light of wis- dom is of the life, ill. 1555. The light of truth from the Lord can- not flow-in while man is in the dark persuasions of his proprium, 2682, 2694. The Lord from his divine human illuminates the sight and un- derstanding of those who are remote from celestial love, thus of the spiritual, if only they are in the faith of charity, 2776, ill, 3095. The truths of the rational mind seldom come to man*s apperception except as a kind of light illuminating those which are in the natural, or as a faculty flowing in and disposing them into order, ill, 3057, see below 3573. All light, life, and order in the natural man, is from the divine flowing in, 3086. All illustration in the natural man is from good, by the medium of truth as its object, because good is like the flame of the sun from which heat and light proceed, ill, 3094. They who are only in the hght of the world, by reason that they are not in good, cannot apprehend those things which are of the light of heaven, 3108. There are two lights which form the understanding of man, the light of heaven and the light of the world; the light of heaven is from the LIG 541 » Lord, but the light of the world is from the sun and moon, 3138, 3223. The internal man derives sight and understanding from the light of heaven, the external from the light of the world, 3138, 3223, 3438 and citations. It is the influx of the light of heaven into those things which are of the light of the world that gives illustration and apperception, provided there be life in the light, which is aff'ection or love, ill. 3138; the passage further ill. 3679, 5422, 5423, 5427, 5428, 5477, 551 1, 10,240. The internal or spiritual man is man made wise from the light of heaven, the external or natural from the light of the world, 3167, ill, 3224, ill. 10,134. When truth is elevated from the external or natural man into the rational it passes from the sphere of the world's light into the sphere of heavenly light, thus from obscurity into clearness, and man, hereby into intelligence and wisdom, 3190. The understanding of man, especially of the regenerate, is illuminated from the light of heaven, but man does not perceive it while in the body because the light of the world prevails, 3195. The Lord was willing to be born a man that they might have light who were in thick darkness, and had so far removed themselves from good and truth, 3195. Having assumed his humanity, the Lord is able to illuminate the natural as well as the rational things of man, 3195, see below 4180. The natural man can have no understanding of anything but from what exists and appears in the solar world, thus from the form given by the light of the world as shade, 3223; and that lights and shades are equally necessary in the other life, 3341, tV/. 3993. The interior mind, which is the subject of intellectual or immaterial ideas, is in the light of heaven, and truths and goods which are of the light of heaven flow into it, 3223, 3224, see above (2) 3337. The will of man lives from the heat of heaven, which is from the divine love of the Lord, and his understanding from the light of heaven, which is from the divine wisdom of the Lord, 3338, 3339 ; thus spiritual light and spiritual heat constitute the Ufe of man, ill. 6032, 6128. They who are not willing to know that light consists in truth from the Lord, believe it to consist in the shade in which the external man dwells, which is the light of the world, ill. 3438. The rational mind, which is in the light of heaven, ought to be manifested in the natural as in its face ; otherwise how little idea can be formed of internal truths, 3573. The light of every one's life consists in his love, and such as the flame of his love is, such is the light of truth with him, 3798, further ill. 3834. They who are in charity are, as to their interiors, in the light of heaven, in which light is intelligence, but not those who are in the light of the world, for in this light there is no intelligence unless the light of heaven be in it, 3969. They who clearly see that good is good and truth truth, receive the influx of light from heaven, insomuch that reasons in their understanding appear like rays of that light, and their scientifics are illuminated and disposed into celestial order, 4156. The light of intelligence and wisdom passed to the human race by the medium of heaven before the Lord's coming, but since then it proceeds from the divine human itself, ill, 4180. They who are in the light of heaven are in intelligence and wisdom, not they who are in natural light, only so far as the light of heaven flows into it in good, ill, 4302. Divine truths can never be received in heart by the evil, shown from light and its reception with such in the other hfe, 4416. The ability 542 LI G L I G 543 of man to procure intelligence from things tlint nppenr in the hght of the world, is from the light of heaven flowing into such ohjects and making them appear representatively and correspondently, thus, intel- lectually, 4526. The progression of man towards interiors is repre- sented in the other life by passing from mist into light ; the nature o such progression ill. 4598. How the interior truths of the Word cohere together, follow one another, and are contained in one another, cannot be seen in the light of the world, unless it be illustrated by the light of heaven; how many ideas from the light of heaven do not fall into human ideas and expressions, 4009. The falses and evils of the church appear in their proper ((uality before the hght of heaven, but not amongst those who are in them, ill. from experience, 40/ 4. It is by light from good contained within man that he is brought to see truths so as to acknowledge and have faith in them; how impossible it is for the quality of this good to be seen in the light of the world, 4930. Man can only sec spiritual and celestial things in natural light, but when he is regenerated, the scientifics of the natural mind are illustrated by the light of heaven, when not regenerate the light flowing in is perverted by spirits who are in the false and evil, 4967. Ihe in- tellectual part in general is the visual faculty of the internal man, whicli sees from the light of heaven, and the objects of its sight are spiritual and celestial ; but the sensual part in general is the sight of the ex- ternal man, which sees from the hght of the world, 5114. Ihe intel- lectual part, which is in the light of heaven, i)rocceds by successive derivations into the sensual, which is in the light of the world and carries life into it, so that sensual objects are perceived intellectually, ilL 5114; the subordination of the sensual to the intellectual, ilL .il-^H. The hght of heaven, which is divine truth from the Lord, can only flow into truths; hence truths with angels, spirits, and men, arc sue- centuriate lights, and good in them is the medium by which they receive the light of divine truth, ill. 5219. The common truths of the church are seen clearly by those who are in celestial spiritual light, but truth from the divine cannot be seen in natural light not illuminated by celes- tial, ill. 5427—5428, 5477. The unregenerate man cannot believe that there is any light which has nothing in common with the ight of the world, much less that it is the light of heaven which enables him to think, to conclude, and to reflect by illustrating the objects seen from the light of the world, ///. 5477. The operation of the angels into the mind of a regenerate man when their influx is rendered visible, appears like light flowing-in, which light consists of innumerable truths shin- ing from good, 5893. When the light of heaven flows-in, it illumi- nates round about natural light, not within it, hence the afl'ection of good and perception of truth is never contained in natural light but m spiritual, 5965. When the light of truth flows-in with those who are not in charity, it is absorbed in the darkness of self and the world like the light of the sun by black objects, 6000. They who are in truth but not yet in good are in darkness, because truth emits no light of itself; good on the other hand is like a flame, which, when it meets with truth illuminates it and draws it into its light, ill 6400. The light of truth from the Lord flows into the intellectual part by good and thus into truth, not into truth immediately, ill. 6405. When man is in temptations, he is obsessed by evils and falses, which impede the influx of light from the divine ; but when he emerges from temptations light appears to him like a morning after darkness, 6829. As the new will is formed, which is done in the intellectual part, man can be illus- trated, but it is a feeble lumen like that of the moon compared with the illustration of celestial love, ill, 7233. The common illumination of the understanding by the light of heaven gives the faculty of under- standing, but not the apperception of truth; this illumination is from the immediate influx of truth, and is as necessary to the sight of the internal man as the light of the sun to the eye, 8707. The under- standing is illustrated by the light of heaven, when man reads the Word from the affection of truth, and by such illustration of the in- ternal sight revelations of truth are made, 8780. When men read the Word for the sake of confirming the doctrinals of their churches, they are not illustrated by divine light from heaven, but by sensual light, 8780, ill. 8941. The internal sight, which is illuminated by divine truth, has for its objects spiritual, civil, and moral truths, and in the ultimate natural truths, which are conclusions from the objects of the external senses, but especially sight, 8861. The angels in heaven think without any idea of space and time, and when such an idea enters they instantly fall from the light of heaven into the lumen of nature, 8918. The spiritual discernment of man, by which he distin- guishes between what is useful and not useful in the objects acquired from the lumen of nature, is from the light of heaven flowing in; how such discernment is proportionate to the influx of light, and such influx to the correspondence and obsequiousness of knowledges in the external man, ill. 9103. The conjunction of good with truth in man is like the conjunction of light with heat, which makes all things in the earth flourish, 9206. Truths which enter into the memory and are seen therein by the understanding arc in the light of the world only; when they pass into the will and become of the life, they are seen in the light of heaven, 9227. Truths seen in the light of heaven return into the light of the world when they pass out of the will into act ; but they now appear under another form because heaven and not the world is in them, 9227. Every one is illustrated and informed from the Word, and this from the light of heaven, according to his affection of truth to the degree of his desire, and his faculty of reception, ill. 9382; see below, 10,400. The spiritual state proper to the internal man consists in the illumination of the intellectual part by the light of heaven, and the affection of the voluntary part by the heat of heaven; the natural state is to be affected with truths which are of the world's light, and with goods which are of its heat, 9383. Divine truth con- tinually flowing in from the Lord as light makes the intellectual principle of man ; and the heat which is in that light kindles and vivifies the will, ill. 9399—9400. The divine truth proceeds from the divine human of the Lord ; how it flows in, &c., illustrated by the radiant circles painted about the head and body of God as a man by the ancients, and that they are spheres of light, 9407. Man is ele- vated more interiorly into divine light according to the quantity and quality of good with him, 9407 ; and conversely the more he is ele- vated the more he comes into the perception of good and the light of truth, 9648. Light from the Lord is divine truth from his divine good or from his di\ine human, and from this truth is faith, intelli- I 544 LIG gence, and wisdom, passages cited 9548, 9571, 9905, particularly 9684. The resplendence of the light of divine truth in those who are illustrated from the Word, discovers itself in the natural man, because all things which are of divine light descend to ultimate ends, and there and thence shine forth, 9905. Those who suffer themselves to be ele- vated by the Lord into the light of heaven, see the scientifics of the natural man in its light, and adopt such as are in agreement, &c., 10,156. The light of truth shines with man altogether according as his love is kindled, for the good of love is the vital fire itself, and the truth of faith intellectual light itself, ill. 10,201 . The love of the will continually flows into the understanding and illustrates it, hence they who love evil think falsely, though they may appear like angels of light before men, 10,284. When man receives the influx and illustration of divine truth, his interiors are actually elevated into the light of heaven, thus, he dwells with angels, and they communicate to him their intel- ligence and wisdom, ill 10,330, 10,400. The man whose internal is opened to heaven is illustrated when he reads the Word, but according to his reception of light by means of the knowledges acquired by him, 10,400 end, 10,402 end, ill. 10,551. It is real light which illuminates the understanding, but distinct from that of the world ; hence, the cor- respondence of the eye and of light, 10,569 ; and that it is the same light by which angels and spirits see, 10,703. See Idea, Illustra- tion, Understanding, Perception, Inspiration. 6. The Correspondence of the Eye and of Light, in seriatim pas- sages, 4403—4420, 4523—4533. They who correspond to the face in the grand man, are of distinct genius according to the senses, 4403. The eye is the most noble organ of the face, and communicates more immediately with the understanding than the rest of the senses, and this also because it is modified by a more subtle atmosphere, 4407. They who correspond to the eyes are eminent for intelligence and wisdom, and the sense of sight corresponds to the affection of under- standing and becoming wise, 4403—4405. The sight of the body corresponds to the understanding, because the understanding is the sight of the spirit, thus, because there are two lights, one of which contains intelligence and wisdom, 4405 ; ill. 4406 ; see below, 4526, 6032. The sight of the body in the case of man depends from the sight of his understanding, hence so large a brain, &c., 4407. The hght of intelligence and wisdom flows in through the internal man, and meets the light and its images which enter through the external by the eye, 4408. The interior light flows in and operates according to the disposition of things received from the light of the world, 4408. As the sight of the eye corresponds to the intellectual sight, it also corresponds with truths, because truths are of the understanding, and there is nothing which has not relation to good and truth, 4409. The sight of the left eye corresponds to the truths of faith, that of the right eye to the goods of faith, and this from the influx of heavenly light and heat into the two hemispheres of the brain, 4410. The humours and coats of the eye have also their correspondences in heaven, and these are more pleasant and beautiful according as such parts of the eye are more interior, ill. 441 1. They who belong to the coats of the eye communicate with the paradisiacal heavens, 4412. The sight of the eye corresponds to the sight of the understanding, and hence LIG 545 to the truths of faith, because the light of the world corresponds to the light of heaven, ill. 4526. Those societies more especially cor- respond to the eye, or rather its sight, who dwell in paradisiacal heavens, 4528. The first heaven is distinguished into several heavens, which correspond to the several parts in the chamber of the eye ; in one of these heavens variously-coloured atmospheres appear, which are refulgent as from gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, and flowers, &c. ; in another, rainbows of the most splendid colours, and all from the light of heaven in which is intelligence and wisdom from the Lord, 4528 — 4530. As the intellectual mind is the eye of the internal man there is also internal light by which it sees ; how greatly this light exceeds that of the world, and that external and internal vision corre- spond together, 6032 ; the former ill. 8708, 10,569. See Eye. 7. Signification of Light. The literal sense of the word is as shade, the internal sense as light, ill. 3438, 3717, 3798, compare 9407. In the internal sense, light denotes truth from good ; in the supreme sense, the Lord himself, 3195. Light denotes the truth of faith, flame the good of love, 3222, 6032. Light and day signify truth and good, 7870. Comparison of charity to a flame which is the essential of heat and light, and of faith to light thence derived, 365, 2231, 3862, 5482, 6128, 7625. That they who are in faith alone appear in snowy light, which is turned into darkness when they approach towards heaven, 3412, 3413; that they who are in faith separate from charity cannot be in the light of heaven, because all spiritual light comes by good from the Lord, ill, 7950 ; and that the loves of self and of gain induce darkness which extinguishes light, 3413. See Fire, Flame, Sun, Darkness. 8. Passages in Illustration. Two great luminaries (or lights) set in the expanse of heaven denote love and faith in the internal man, 31 — 34. A bow (of variously-coloured light) given in the cloud, denotes the goods and truths of faith shining in the proprium of those who become regene- rate, 1043, 1053. Abram*s journeying from the south (or light of noon- day) to Bethel, denotes progression from the light of inteUigence into the light of wisdom, 1555. Isaac's dweUing in the land of the south denotes the rational man in divine light, 3195. Zarah, named from the rising light, denotes good from which truth proceeds, 4930. Light in the habitations of all the sons of Israel, and thick darkness in all the land of Egypt, denotes the illustration of the spiritual, and the loss of truth and good by those who infest them, 7719. The pillar of cloud and fire which journeyed with the Israelites, denotes the illustration of the spiritual according to their changing states, 8106, 8108. The golden candlestick for the tabernacle, its seven lights, &c., denotes the Lord as the divine spiritual, or the spiritual heaven and illumina- tion therefrom, 9548 and sequel, 9570, 9571, especially 9684. In- cense to be burned when the lamps were dressed in the morning, and when they were lighted in the evening, denotes the elevation of worship in a clear state of love when truth comes into its light, and in an ob- scure state when truth is in shade, 10,200—10,202. The light of a candle not to shine any more in Babylon, denotes that there should be no longer any intelligence of truth, 4335, 9548. The raiment of the Lord shining like light, as white as snow, when he was transfigured, denotes the divine truth ; his face shining as the sun, divine love, N N 546 LIN 5319, 5585. The vision of a golden candlestick with seven lights, seen hy the prophet Zechariah, denotes the spiritual church restored, and its holy truths, 9548. The Lord as the Son of Man in the midst of the seven candlesticks, denotes the divine truth, 9548. The holy Jerusalem not needing the sun or the moon to shine in it, because the Lamb is the light thereof, denotes the intelligence of truth and the wisdom of good from the Lord alone, 9548. See Lamps. LIGHTNINGS [fulffura], denote the splendours which are of truth derived from the good which is of love, which glance through and penetrate the internal sight, and this in both senses, sh. 8813. Lightnings of rain denote the splendour of truth descending from heaven, 8813. Lightnings or flames denote the splendour of truth derived from good, 8914. The aspect of the Lord's countenance seen in vision by Daniel, described like lightning, denotes the good of love, and this from the signification of fire, 6135, compare 8813. The coming of the Son of Man to be like the lightning which goes out from the east, and appears even to the west, denotes the celestial light of the good of love and its dissipation, 3900. LIGURE [cyaniis]. See Precious Stones (azure-stone), LIKENESS \instar\ has the same signification as similitude, 8870; which, again, is the same as effigy, 51. The spiritual man is denoted by an image, and called a son of light ; but the celestial man is an effigy, a similitude, or hkeness, and is called a son of God, 51, 4/3, 1013, compare 1737 end. All things in heaven and the world exhibit the likeness of a marriage, and this from the conjunction of good and truth as active and passive, without which nothing can be produced, 5194. Goods and truths conjoin themselves according to the form of heaven in the regenerate man, and make a likeness of heaven in him, 9079. In all the good that proceeds from the Lord there is his likeness, and hence the likeness of heaven ; but in man's self-derived good there is nothing but evil, and hence a likeness of hell, 8480. That which appears like good in externals, and is not from the divine, is hypocritical and vile, and is forbidden in the spiritual sense by the commandment not to make any likeness, &c. (image), 8870. See Simulation. The body is produced from the soul, and formed to its likeness, and the case is similar with the union of the divine and the human in the Lord, for the likeness of the one is in the other, 10,125; that the soul is from the father, 5041. See Effigy, Image, Similitude. LILIES. The spheres of charity and faith, are perceived in the other life like the odour of flowers of various kinds, of lilies, &c., 1519. See Sphere. LIMIT. Every man in the world acquires his particular measure or capacity, whether for good or evil, and this is fiUed-fuU in the other life, where its limit and degree of extension is also manifestly perceived, 7984. How the determination of the thought to any particular people or person, generally, to anything of time and space, limits and con- centrates the ideas of man when reading the Word, 5225, 5253, 5287, 6653, 6804. See Border, Extension, Faculty. LINE [linea]. Round figures denote goods, linear and angular figures truths, 9717. The line of emptiness and the plumb-lines of wasteness (Is. xxxiv. 1 1 ), denote the desolation and vastation of truth, 5044. [A line is a rule, and a rule is a law or precept of truth. In LIN 547 the authorized version it is expressed " line of confusion, and stones of emptiness ;" understand the weight of the plumb-line, because weight denotes the state as to good, 5658, from which the extension or rule of truth is produced, and hereby rectitude or righteousness.] LINEN, Linen Things \linum, lintea]. Flax, of which linen is made, signifies exterior natural truth, and natural truth is represented in the other life as a texture of fine linen threads, soft and shining like silk if it be the truth of good, but otherwise opaque and fragile, 7601. The linen in which the angels appeared clothed, and the linen garments worn by Aaron when he ministered in the holy place, denote truth of the exterior natural ; in heaven also, those who are in natural truth, appear clothed in white, like linen, 7601. The Lord girded himself with a piece of linen, and wiped the feet of his disciples with it when he had washed them, because purification from sins is effected by the truths of faith, and a linen girdle upon the loins denotes the truth of good, such as it is in the church at its commencement, 7601. A garment of linen mixed with wool was not to be worn by the Israelites, because man cannot be in a state of good and from that regard truth, at the same time that he is in a state of truth from which he regards good, 7601 ; and because the angels can form no idea of good and truth as distinct things, 5895. Linen signifies spiritual truth, which is of the good of faith, wool celestial truth, which is of the good of love, on this account Aaron was to wear linen garments when he ministered in the holy place, 9470. Linen signifies truth that invests good, 9872. LINEN, Fine, [bi/ssus.~\ Garments of fine linen (by which cotton is meant) denote truths from the divine, on account of the whiteness and splendour of this material, sh. 5319. Raiment of fine linen, and silk, and needle-work denotes truths both rational and natural, 5620. Fine linen and silk denote truths derived from good, which in the light of heaven are most splendid and transparent, 5954. Fine linen [linum bi/ssinum], on account of its whiteness and softness, denotes truth in the natural man, from a celestial origin, 9469, 9942. Fine linen thread, or fine-twined linen, denotes truth from celestial good, 9596. Fine twined linen denotes the intellectual principle as formed of genuine truths, ill, 9744. The coat of fine linen commanded to be embroidered (or woven) denotes the procedure of the understanding from the will, or of truth from good, ill, 9942. See Garment, Tent, Representation, Aaron (supplement). LINGER to [tardare], denotes a state of doubt, because to go, to journey, &c., denotes a state of life, and when the state of life is in doubt the external man lingers, 5613. Moses lingering in the moun- tain denotes the influx of divine truth from heaven stayed, 10,396. The boy not lingering, &c., denotes a state of desire, 4474. How the slow or lingering are made to think and speak quickly in the other life, 5187. How slow they are in all things who belong to the bones, 5562. See to Tarry. LINTEL [superliminare]. All things in a house have reference to the human form, the apartments and bed chambers to the interiors of the mind; windows, doors, &c., to the exteriors which introduce, 7847. Posts denote the truths of the natural mind, lintel its goods, and have reference respectively to the hands and the forehead, sh. 7847, 8989. N N 2 548 LIV LOR 549 it I \i LION [leo], A lion denotes the truth of the church in its power; in the opposite sense, the false also in its power, 63G7. A lion's whelp denotes innocence, and the strength of innocence which is its truth. 6367. A lion denotes the good of celestial love and truth therefrom in its power; in the opposite sense, evil, 6367. To bow as a lion, to couch down as a lion, and as a lion's whelp, denotes the good of love when it puts itself into power, and its safety from all evil, 6369. Lions denote divine truths fighting and overcoming; the twelve lions ot Solomon's throne, all these in one complex, 5313. Lions, oxen, and cherubs on the bases of the brazen lavers made by Solomon, denote guardianship from truths and goods in their power, and from the Lord, 10,236. The four animals round the throne, one of them like a hon, seen by John, denote the protection and providence of the Lord, 9391. Dan a lion's whelp, he shall leap from Bashan, denotes the first pnn- ciple of truth, by which the regenerate man fights and conquers, 3293. Passages cited only, in both senses, 3240, 5828 ; and that the teeth of lions, in the opposite sense, denote falses destroying truths, 9052. LIP [labium], denotes doctrine ; the whole earth of one lip, doc- trine everywhere in common, 1285—1288, 1799 end; passages cited from the Word, 1 286. Their lip confounded, and a man not able to hear the lip of his companion, denotes the confusion of doctrine, and the dis- cord which ensued, when the worship of self took the place of the wor- ship of the Lord, 1321, 1322, 1327. To be of uncircumcised lips de- notes impurity of doctrine, 7225. To render the calves of the lips is to confess Jehovah from the goods of doctrine, 939 1 ; and the good of doctrine is love and charity, 2572. The Hps touched with fire from the altar (Is. vi. 3—7), denote the interiors of man, which are of charity and its doctrine, thus internal worship, 1286. For one to speak the lip of Canaan, is to apply himself to the divine, 4197. The men of the most ancient church did not discourse by articulate language, but by changes of the face, especially about the lips, 607, 1118. The first speech of man in every earth, has been by the face and lips, which far surpasses the speech of words, and agrees with the language of angels, 8249; the author's experience in such language, with the spirits of other worlds, 4799, 7359—7361, 7480, 7481, 7745, 7802, 8022, 8247, 10,587, 10,588. Generally, all the parts of the mouth, as the lips, the tongue, the throat, &c., correspond to the enunciation of truth, 9049 end. See Language. LIQUID, to become [liquejieri]. See to Melt. LITIGATE, to. See Dispute, (page 120.) LITTLE CHILD [parvulus]. See Infant (3). LIVE, to \vivere']. See Life (17). LIVER [heparjecur]. The influx of those who correspond to the liver is various according to its function; their operation generally is orbicular, 5183. They who correspond to the pancreatic, hepatic, and cystic ducts are of distinct genius, and delight in inflicting chastisement, &c., 5185. The liver denotes interior purification of the good of the natural man ; and because the embryo derives its nourishment through the liver, it sometimes denotes the good of innocence, ill. and sh, 10,031, 10,073. LIVES [vita], is used in the plural, on account of the distinction between the will and understanding, and consequently between good and truth ; life in the singular, because these two lives make one, ilL and sh. 3623. See Life. LOATHE, to [fastidio]. To be afi'ected with loathing denotes aversion, 6665. The natural man loathes and nauseates the wisdom of angels ; hence the loathing of manna by the children of Israel, 999, 5648, 4027, 4096, 5006, 5648, 9109. The author's experience in the case of certain spirits from the Christian world, who were afi'ected with sickness on hearing the interior sense of the Word, 5702. To loathe husbands and sons, (Ezek. xvi. 3, 45,) is to reject goods and truths, 1203. The words of Rebecca concerning the daughters of Heth ex. 3620. To loathe life denotes no adjunction, 3620. See Hatred, Aversion. LOCUST, signifies the false which vastates the extremes of the natural, 7643, 10,071. When locust and caterpillar are mentioned together, the former signifies the false vastating, and the latter evil ; when only the locust is mentioned, it signifies the false and evil com- bined, because the false derived from evil, 7643. The multiplication of the locust and caterpillar, denotes the multiplication of evils and falses from the pleasures of the appetites and the fallacies of the senses, 7643. By locust in a good sense is denoted truth in its ultimate and most common form, and also its pleasantness, 7643. John the Baptist eat- ing locusts and wild honey, denotes the good of the literal sense of the Word and its delights, 5620. See John. The locusts brought by the east wind signifies the infusion and infestation of dense falses, 7682—7686. That those who are in falses are signified by locusts, 9052; and that locusts signify truth aff'ording nutriment in the extreme natural, 9372. See Insect, Caterpillar. LODGER, a [inquilinus], or stranger of another people dwelling with an Israelitish family, denotes one who does good from natural dis- position only, and hence is not of the church, 8002. LOGIC. See Philosophy. LOINS [lumbi]. See Thigh. LOOK BACK [retrospicere]. See Back. LOOKS [vultus]. See Countenance, Face. LOOPS [loramenta], of a hyacinthine colour made for the curtains of the tabernacle denote conjunction by the celestial love of truth, 9605, 9608—9610,9623,9625. See Tent. hOVCO {Dominus) . 1. That He is the source of Life. The Lord is called Lord, and is held and acknowledged for the Father in heaven, because they are one and the same, 14, 15, 1729, 2005, 3035; pas- sages cited, 3061; br. 7086, 7209, 8864; seriatim passages, 9194; br. 9278 end. The Lord is good itself or life, and truth itself or light, sh. 20, 24, 201 1, 51 10, 10,336, 1 0,61 9. The Lord is good itself and truth itself because he is infinite, of which nothing but esse can be predicated, 10,619. The Lord is the heavenly marriage itself because he is good itself and truth itself, 2509, 2588, 2618, 2649, 2803. All good and truth with man, thus all intelligence and wisdom, are from the Lord alone, 24, 39, 109, 112, 121, 124, ill. 128—129, 130, 141, 633, 874, 904, 932, 1402, 1424, 1614, 2004, 2016, 2882—2892, 2904, 2946, 2974. No divine good can pass to man except by the human essence united to the divine, thus by the Lord, ilL 2016. The Lord alone is the life and 550 LOR LOR 551 the one living, «A. 290, 1735. The Lord is life itself as to the human essence as well as the divine, hut man is only a recipient of life from him, 2021, 2658, 3/33, 10,196. All live from the Lord, the evil as well as the good; variously iV/. 41, 141, 149, 290, 671, 681, 780, 933, 1026, 1735, 1954, 2021, 2658, 2706, 2886—2889, 3001, 3318, 3337—3339, 3484, 3742, 3743, 4318—4320, 4417, 4524, 4882, 5605, 5847, 5986, 6058, 6325, 6468—6470, 6626, 7270, 8497, 8717, 8728, 9276, 9400. All things exist and subsist from the Lord, and from the union of his human essence with the divine, which is like a marriage ; also from the conjunction of both with his kingdom, which makes the heavenly marriage, 1432. It is the very essential of all intelligence with the angels to know and perceive that all life is from the Lord, that the whole heaven corresponds to his divine human, and that all angels, spirits and men correspond to heaven, 4318, ill, 4319; the former ill. 4417. The life by which heaven and the whole universe is filled is from the Lord's divine human, 6685. The Lord is the first principle and only fountain of life, comparatively as the sun is the only fountain of heat and light in nature, 4524. The influx of life from the Lord is always the same, but it is varied according to reception, and diffuses itself in an incomprehensible manner into all forms ; variously ill. from the human will and understanding, and from other subjects, 2069, 2888, 3001, 3318, 4206, 4320, 5147, 5259, 5847, 5986, 6467, 6472, 6473, 7343. All and everything exists and subsists from the Lord, thus all goods and their truths, celestial spiritual, natural, cor- poreal, and sensual, 77 o, ill. 880, ill. 1096, 1422. All order and all the laws of order are from the Lord, 2447. All things in the universe not only exist from the Lord, but continually subsist from him, as the fountain of life, 4523, 4524, 6056, 10,196. Every existing thing is from something prior and superior to itself, thus from the first, and finally from the Lord ; evils and falses, however, are not from what is superior, but from what is inferior, thus not from the Lord, but from the world, ill. 9128. All things in the world are actual, and not ideal, because they are from the Lord, 1808; but that he alone is and exists, 2621 ; compare 4882. There is no hfe and esse except in those things which are from the Lord, thus which are eternal, 726. The recipients of Hfe appear to live from themselves, because the influx of life from the Lord is continual, and because of the correspondence between the organs and the life, whereby they appear and act as one cause, 3001, 3484. The all of life is from the Lord as divine good, but its proce- dure and influx is by divine truth, ill. 10,196. Before the advent of the Lord into the world, the influx of life with men and spirits was by the angels of his celestial kingdom, not so afterwards, 6371; compare the passages cited, 9276, and see below (27, 59). As to the general subject, see Influx (1), Life (2, 8, 14). The life of the Lord in its very esse is divine love, and it is the essential life which is meant by Jehovah, 1735. 2. That the Lord is Jehovah himself y the one God acknowledged in the Jewish church, sh. 1736. The Lord is God from eternity, 3704 ; br. ill. and sh. 7209. The Lord was and is Jehovah in human form, sh. 9315 and citations. The Lord is called the Father, and is every- where meant by Jehovah in the Old Testament, 1736,2005, 2921,3023, 3035, 3061, 3704, 4692, 5663, 6303, 6905, 7090, 7209, 7406, 7444, 7539, 8864, 9194, 9223, 9227, 9414. It is no other than the Lord who is called the God of Jacob and the Holy One of Israel, sh. 3305 end, 3481, 6846—6847, 7090. The Lord is called Jehovah as the Father or divine good, 7499, 7005, 8330, 8897, 8988, 9194; or as love itself, which is the esse of all life, 1735, 2001, 2769. The Lord is manifestly called God in the prophecy of Isaiah, 10,154. The Lord alone had divine seed, thus his soul was no other than Jehovah when he was in the world. 1438, 1921, 1999, 2004, 2005, 2011, 2018, 2021, 2025, 3023, 4641, 4963, 5041, 5157, 6716, 10,125. The Lord's in- ternal man was Jehovah, and the interior and external was also made Jehovah by temptations and victories, 1725—1729, 1733, 5041. The Lord's internal man was Jehovah, because conceived of Jehovah, ill. 1815, 1921, 1999, 2018. The Lord made his human essence or exter- nal man Jehovah, thus life itself, by uniting it to the internal, 1603, 2004, 200.5, 2011, 2018, 2021, 2025. The human, when glorified, could not possibly be any other than Jehovah ; illustrated by the soul forming the body to its image, 4727. Since the union of the human essence with the divine in the Lord, all in him is Jehovah, not only his internal man and his interior, but also his external and his very body itself, 1729, ill. 1603, 3737; especially «A. that he is one with the Father, 3704. The Lord was one and the same with Jehovah when he was in the world, so far as the human essence was united to the divine; but he was distinct from Jehovah, and spake with him and prayed to him as another, so far as he was in the infirm human, 1745, 1815, 1999, 2159, 2580; the former only ; passages cited, 3367. In the sense of the letter a distinction is made between Jehovah and the Lord, but in the internal sense they are one ; the reason, 3035 ; see below, (3), 2580, 6993; and see the summary of passages, 3061. In the most ancient, and also in the ancient church, no other than the Lord, and indeed the divine human, was acknowledged by the name of Jehovah, because there can be no conjunction in thought and affection with any other, 5663, especially the end; see below (21), 4733, 5110. 3. The Trinity in the Lord, consists in the Divine itself, called the Father, the divine human called the Son, and the divine proceeding called the Holy Spirit, and these three are one, 2149, 2156, 2288, 2321, 2329, 2447 end, 3704, 6993, 7182, ill. 9303, 10,738, 10,822, 10,823. These three in one are the Lord, and the Lord is Jehovah, sh. 2156 ; especially that the whole trinity is in the Lord, 3704. It is possible to conceive of this divine trine existing in one person, thus in the Lord, but not in three persons, 10,738, 10,821—10,824. The Father in the Lord is divine good, the Son divine truth ; and they are so distinguished in accommodation to human understanding, 2802, 2803, 3704, 3863, 4180, 4207, 9194; see below, 6993. The Lord is one with the Father, because the divine itself and the divine human are united in him, 1729, 2004, 2005, 2018, 2025, 2751, 3704, 3736. The holy proceeding of the Lord is from the divine itself and the divine human, 2288. The divine itself has no procedure or influx except by the divine human; hence in heaven they adore no other Father than the Lord, 3038. The divine proceeding of the Lord, called the Holy Spirit, is his divine in heaven, and not any spirit from eternity, 3969 end, 3704 end, 4673, 6788, 6993, 7499, 8127, 8302, 9199, 9229, 9407, 9818, 9820, 10,330. The divine trinity is acknowledged in 552 LOR heaven, not as in the Christian church at this day, hut as heing in the Lord, 5256 ; more particularly how the angels think of the trinity ; ill. by a similar Three in themselves, 9303. The trine is perfect in the Lord, for the divine in him is the Father ; that divine in heaven is the Son, and the divine thence proceeding is the Holy Spirit, 5110 end ; briefly, that the Father is in him, the Holy Spirit from him, 7182. The distinction, as of person in the literal sense of the Word, is because all the laws of order are from the divine itself, the divine human, and the holy proceeding of the Lord, 2447. The sense of the letter divides what the internal sense unites ; thus the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one God, and the whole trine is perfect in the Lord, 2580, 2663; thus that the Lord alone is God, 1607, 2149, 2156, 2329, 2447, 2751, 3704, 3938, 4577, 4687, 5321, 6280, 6371, 6849, 6993, 7014, 7091, 7182, 7209, 8241, 8724, 8760, 8864, 886.5, 9194, 9303. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are spoken of in the Word, to the intent that the Lord and the divine in him may be acknowledged, ill, 6993. The celestial perceive that the divine, the human, and the holy proceeding are not three, but one ; the spiritual, on the other hand, remain in the idea of three, though they endeavour to think of one, 3241. They who are in love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour know and acknowledge the trine, but they adore the Lord alone, because they know that there is no access to the Divine itself but by him, and that all the holy [principle] called the Holy Spirit proceeds from him, ill, 2329; in support of this, that the Lord as to the human has life in himself, 1603, 1999, 2021, ill. smd sh, 2658; that to have life in himself is God, 2658; and that all who are in evils of life deny the divine human and the holy proceeding, 2352, 2354, 2357. That the learned were explored what idea they had of one God, and it was found they had an idea of three, whence the Jews allege that Christians worship three Gods ; also concerning the Gentiles in this matter; from experience in the other life, 2329, 5256, 10,736 — 10,738, 10,821. A trinity of persons and not a trinity in the Lord is neces- sarily acknowledged if the truth concerning the divine human is not admitted, 4766. Summary of doctrine concerning the trinity in the Lord; passages cited seriatim, 3061. See Holy (2), Father. 4. That nothing but Good is from Him. Everything good and true is from the Lord as the alone Lord of heaven and the church, 1614; passages cited 8046. All the freedom that man can have is from the Lord, when he is led by the love of good and truth, 892, 905, 2882, 5660, 5763. All celestial freedom is from the Lord, and it consists in being led of the Lord, 2872—2875, see particularly 3043. All the ability to think and to will is primarily from the Lord who is the source of all life, of all good and truth, 2886, 2882—2892, 6472, 8495 and citations. Nothing but good proceeds to man from the Lord, but his good is turned into evil by the wicked, 7643, 7^7d, 7710, 8632 ; more particularly how infernal spirits bring evil upon themselves, 7926. Good and truth from the Lord flow-in so far as evil and the false are removed, 2411, i7/. 3147. The Lord also turns evil into good, this represented in form by the spirits of Jupiter, 8631 ; and that there is nothing even harsh from the Lord, 8632. The angels know that all good and truth are from the Lord, but the evil are not willing to know this, 6193, 9128. In the hells they are against the Lord, but they LOR 553 are not unwilling to hear of the Father, the Creator of the Universe, a proof that the Lord governs heaven, 6197, 6475, 7097. The angels receive more and more good from the presence of the Lord, but infernal spirits immerse themselves still deeper in evil, and cast themselves into hell, 7989, 8137, 8265. The Lord judges all from good, for he is love itself and mercy itself ; how the evil are judged from truth, 2335 ; and in what sense anger and the punishment of evil is attributed to the Lord, 245, 592, 696, 735, 1093, 1838, 1857, 1874, 1875, 2395, 2447, 2768, 3605—3607, 3614, 6073, 6997. The Lord is always the same, but he appears to every one according to their quality ; to the angels as a sun, the source of all light, but to the evil as darkness and a consuming fire, 1838, 1861, 3235, t7Z. 6832. The Lord is one with the Father ; the universal heaven is his ; from him is all innocence, peace, love, charity, mercy, all good and truth ; also that Moses and the prophets, and every ceremony of the Jewish Church relate to him, 2751, 2892, 3061 ; that conjugial love, and the love of parents for their children are especially from him, 686, 1865 end, ill. 2039, 2618, 2649, 2728 ; and that he is peace itself, consequently all that proceeds from him brings man into a state of peace, 1726, 5662, 8455, 9387, 10,054, 10,723. See Good (23). 5. The Lord nothing but Love, The Lord is the very esse and life of love, and his will is to give all that is his to the human race, sh, 1499, ilL 1799, 1803. The very life of man is the celestial love that flows down from the Lord, 1436, 1589, 2253, 3539. Celestial love from the Lord flows into man continually, but it is impeded by the loves of self and the world, 2041, 2045—2046. Man's love to the Lord flows in from the Lord himself, from his love for the whole human race, 2227, 6138. The love of the Lord is so great that he would have all in the highest heaven near himself, yea in himself, yet some are com- paratively near and some remote from him according to their charity and love, 1799. The love of the Lord transcends all human understanding, and must be quite incredible to those who do not know how great celes- tial love [with man] is, ill. 2077, 2500 end. The life of the Lord, when he was in the world, was nothing but pure divine love ; passages cited, 3063 ; and how it was nothing but the divine love that made the Lord's human divine, 4727. The divine love of the Lord is celestial and spiritual, but this distinction is in respect to those who receive, 3325, 4696. The love of the Lord is such that he wills to have the whole man, and not that man should be partly his own and partly the Lord's, ill. 6138. The ardour of divine love is a fire so intense that even the angels could not receive it without perishing, 6834 ; hence, that they are veiled with a thin suitable cloud lest they should be hurt by divine influx ; but that the human of the Lord is divine, because receptive of the fire of divine love, 6849. See Love (9). 6. The Mercy of the Lord, The life of the Lord is mercy, which is love to the whole human race, 2261. The Lord regards all from mercy, and any apparent departure therefrom is according to man's reception of him ; hence mercy, peace, and all good are signified by his faces, 223, 224, 2434, 5585, 8867, 9297, 9306, 9546, 9936. See Face (3). It is the Lord himself who is merciful and not the Father who is moved to mercy in consideration of the sacrifice of his Son, 2854, 8573. By the Lord's mercy, the men of the most ancient church, who were celes- 554 LO R tial, understood their own reception of his love, and their perception of it, 3122. The Lord provides that his love and mercy shall not appear before man as regenerated, yet the Lord never removes himself, but evils hide him as with a cloud, and cause the appearance of his removal, 5696. The mercy of the Lord is common to all, but it is only predicated of those who receive it, thus, who are in good, 6851, 7206. Mercy and grace are predicated when the Lord is implored, mercy and truth when he is described, 10,577. See Grace. 7. The Acknowledgment and Worship of the Lord, The acknowledg- ment of some supreme flows from the Lord into all men, by the angels associated with them ; they who are not in such acknowledgment are under the dominion of infernal spirits, 1308. The angels acknowledge the Lord as the all in all in his kingdom, because they perceive that all the good of love and charity is from him alone, 1416 ; ill, 3038, 6193 ; the contrary with infernal spirits, 6197, 6475, 7097. The divine human is acknowledged as the all in heaven because the angels cannot think of the divine itself, and be conjoined therewith in faith and love, ill, 721 1. They who are principled in any acknowledgment and love of God, providing they have lived in charity, are easily imbued with the truth concerning the Lord in the other life, and acknowledge the divine human, 932, 1032, 1059, 1328, 1366, 2049, 2051, 2574, 2589— 2604, 2861, 2986, 4190, 10,205. They within the church who do not acknowledge the Lord can have no conjunction with the divine; but the case is otherwise with those who are without the church and live well, 10,205. The acknowledgment of the Lord, of the divine in him, and his union with the Father, is the very beginning of spiritual life, and the verimost essential of the church, 7550, 8635—8640, 10,083, 10,112, 10,370, 10,728—10,730, 10,816—10,820. In the first state of the church, when resuscitated, the Lord is unknown ; but he is still present in the honesty and decorum of those in whom the church is to be formed, 2915. It signifies nothing that the name of the Lord is acknowledged without mutual love, for herein salvation in his name consists ; the signification of quality by name ill, and ah, 2009, 10,087. They within the church, who are in the good of charity, acknowledge the Lord in the Divine Human ; but they who are not in the good of charity divide between the divine and the human, or only acknowledge the Lord from hypocrisy, 2326, 2354 ; ill, 2357. They who are prin- cipled in worldly and corporeal loves cannot believe that the human of the Lord was made divine, indeed they do not will to believe, 3212. The divine human and the holy proceeding of the Lord, and also the good of charity, ought not to be violated ; yet these holy things are vio- lated by those who possess the Word and are in the life of evil, 2359 ; that such may show much zeal for external worship nevertheless, 2373. They who love and adore the Lord regard others as their neighbour in the degree they have the Lord in them ; also that he is the neighbour in the supreme sense, 2425. The all of doctrine contained in the Word, especially expressed in the internal sense, consists in the worship and love of the Lord, 2859. No one can have celestial good unless he acknowledges the Lord, 3864. No one can acknowledge and worship the divine human who is in faith separate from charity ; hence it has been unknown to the Christian world that the human of the Lord is divine, that he alone rules heaven and the whole universe, and that LOR 555 his divine human is the all of heaven, 4689, 4692, ill. 4727. The ancient church acknowledged the Lord, and called him Jehovah, because they were in charity, 4692, 4727, 6846—6847, 6876. The ancient churches acknowledged God under a human form, thus the Lord ; but when they turned to evil they began to worship representatives, &c., 9193. The acknowledgment of the Lord, that his human is divine, and that charity is essential before faith, are common truths, to recede from which leads to the denial of truths in particular, 4717 ; that these are the primary articles of divine truth, 4723. The acknowledgment and adoration of the divine human is the very life of religion, because no man can worship that which is not adequate to his perception and thought, ill, 4733. The ancient church and also the primitive Christian church acknowledged the truth concerning the Lord's divine human, but a distinction was made between the divine and the human in a certain council, in order that the papal power might subsist; from the author's experience, 4738; that the ancient church and the primitive Christian church were the same in internals, 4772. They who are in simple good acknowledge the divine human, and also the necessity of works of charity, 4754; a caution to the learned, 4733, 4760. The church cannot be where it is not acknowledged in life and doctrine that the human of the Lord is divine, or that the Lord is one with the Father, sh, 4766. The church cannot be where the Lord is acknowledged from doctrine only and not from life, 4899. The Lord requires humiliation and adoration, not for the sake of himself but, for the sake of man who is then in a state of receiving truth, 5957. Jehovah, or the Lord, extolling his power and glory, as we read in the Word, is not for the sake of himself, but for the human race, 7550, 8263, further ill. ; and that their salvation is his glory, 10,646. While a youth is being educated by his natural father, the latter is in place of the Lord to him ; but when he is capable of judging for himself the Lord is his father, 6492, ill. 8896—8900 ; and that all are really born sons of the Lord, 3494. It is by the per- formance of uses that the Lord is principally worshipped, and therefore, John, who represented the exercises of charity, that is, use, lay on the Lord's breast, ill. 7038 ; ill, 7724, 8254, 8257. The principal re- quirement of internal worship is to acknowledge the Lord as the one and only God, and that all good and truth proceed from him, 9193; supported by seriatim passages, especially showing that he is Jehovah in the Word, and that divine good in himself was the Father so called when he was in the world, 9194. They who are in good acknowledge the Lord, but not they who are in evil, notwithstanding the latter may be in truths, 9193. The Lord is better accepted out of the church than within it, for though he is received by Christians in doctrine, few ac- knowledge him in heart, 9198. The new church is raised up among the Gentiles because they adore one only God under a human form, and when they hear of the Lord they receive and acknowledge him, sh. 9256. The acknowledgment of the Lord as the Saviour of the world is of all things the first and most essential to spiritual life, thus to the reception of faith and love, ill, and *A. 10,083, 10,089; ill. 10,112. The true worship of the Lord consists in doing his precepts, ill, and sh, 10,143, 10,153; also the love of the Lord, ill. and «A. 10,578; both variously ill. and sh, 10,645. It is the Lord who elevates the worship of man to himself, and when this cannot be done, it is not worship ; 556 LOR hence what is said of the worship of idolaters who are in charity, ill. 10,203, 10,205. If man be worshipped instead of God, and not the Lord, infernal spirits are worshipped because every one in hell wills to be god; ill. 10,642. See Idolatry, Worship. 8. Salvation hy the Lord. It may appear surprising that to believe in the Lord is to be saved, or that faith in the Lord is saving, but faith cannot be given except in its life, which is love and charity, 2343, 2349. Life and salvation by the body and blood of the Lord in the Holy Supper signifies by the divine human and the holy proceeding, that is, love itself, 2343, 2359. The divine human is the means of salvation to all who are in good, 2666, 26/0, 2841. They who are saved by the union of the divine and the human in the Lord are the spiritual, who are illuminated by the influx of light, whereby divine good can be conjoined with their truths, 2554, 2661, 26/1 and sequel, 2716, 2764, 2765, 2776, 2805, 2807 end, 2828—2830, 2833, 2834, 3094, 6289, 7066, 7195; especially 6373, 6427, 6854, 6914, 7719, 7828, 9684, and seriatim passages. The spiritual who are saved by the Lord are all those who are in the faith of charity, 2836, particu- larly 2839; and that such faith and charity, consequently salvation, is from the marriage of good and truth in the Lord*s divine human, ill, and passages cited, 3187. It was the consolation of the Lord after enduring temptations that the spiritual were thus saved, that they would be multiplied as the stars of heaven and the sand upon the sea shore, and that all who should be in good were also saved, 2841; ill. that such were the consequences, 2845 — 2854. The spiritual, who are saved by the Lord's advent into the world, are treated of in the Word in classes ; generally they are such as are within the church, and such as are without, but still in good, 2861, 2869. None are saved by the Father looking upon the Son as having suffered upon the cross for the human race, but by the union of the divine with the human in the Lord, 2854, 10,152; this also, because man could thus mentally regard and adore the divine in the human, 3441. The spiritual could not be saved or elevated from the lower earth into heaven before the Lord's advent because there was no force strong enough to detain them from falses, 6945 ; ill. 7091; and that they were then really delivered from the infestation of evil spirits, and elevated to heaven, 6306, 6373, 6858, 6864, 6914, 7090, 7207, 7686, 7828, 1932^, 8006, 8018, 8047, 8049, 8054, 8137, 8261, 8294 end, 8321, 8407, 8668, 8751, 9197, 9292, 9396 end. The spiritual, who were saved by the Lord's advent into the world, could not sustain temptations before the Lord made his human divine, and in this could be present with them, ill. 8159, 8346. The work of salvation is one of order proceeding from the celestial to the spiritual, &c., and the Lord as to this entire work was represented by the priesthood, 9809, 10,017, ill. 10,019, 10,152. The work of salvation was effected from the divine itself by the divine human, be- cause the divine alone could not penetrate through to man, nor even to any angel ; that the blood of the Lord in this work is divine truth pro- ceeding from him, &c., 10,152. All who are in celestial love have confidence that they are saved by the Lord, because they believe that he came into the world to give eternal life to those who believe on him, and keep his precepts ; also that no others have faith in the Lord but those who live according to his precepts, 9244, 9245. LOR 557 9. The Government of the Lord; his Providence^ ^c. The whole heaven and the whole earth is governed by the Lord, and no help can come from any but him, 940 end. The Lord has all power in the heavens and the earths, sh. 1607, 4727, 8331, 8769; sh. 10,089; br. sh. 10,827, 10,642. The Lord, as Jehovah and God from eternity, had all power before he came into the world ; what he says of this power being then given to him has reference to the human essence, 1607; that he is God from eternity and rules the universe, sh. 3704. The Lord is called King and Priest ; as king he governs all from divine truth, as priest from divine good, ill. 1728. The Lord derives no power from the evil and false, but only from himself, because from good and truth, ill. 1749, 1755. The Lord rules all things from per- mission, from admission, from leave, from good pleasure, and from will, 1755; ill. 2447. All men are immediately present under the Lord's view, and subject to his providence, 1274 end, 1277 end; ill, 1999. The Lord is order itself, and from himself he provides and governs all things in order, not only in the most universal, but in the most singular; that this is philosophically true, 1919. The Lord from himself alone governs the whole heaven, 1928 ; consequently all things which thence depend, thus all worlds, 2026, 4524. Now that the human is made divine, the Lord governs the universe by his holy pro- ceeding from the divine itself and the divine human, 2288. The Lord rules every one, and leads them to good, so far as possible, by their own ends, 2706, 3854; or affections, 4364. The Lord rules and governs the universe by influx from the divine human, which is the very existere of the infinite divine esse by which he has ruled from eternity, 4687. The Lord knows all things and provides all things, even to the most minute; and were it possible to conceive his care remitted for the least instant the human race would perish, and this from a disturbance in the series of consequences, which extend to eter- nity, 5122; also that his government, and thus his providence, is by influx, 6056, 6058; ill. 6481—6495. See Influx. Things done from the Lord are said to be from his will, his good pleasure, and his permis- sion, by which so many degrees of influx and reception are meant, 9940. The Lord foresees and provides all things to eternity, because he is himself infinite, ill, 10,048. The Lord's providence concerns good, his prsevidence evil, both which must be, because all that comes from the Lord is good, and all that comes from man is evil, br, 10,781. See Providence, Government. 10. The Kingdom of the Lord, The reception of good and truth from the Lord introduces into his kingdom, and the Lord himself is all in all therein, 2904. So far as man believes that good and truth are from the Lord, so far he is in his kingdom, 2904 end. The first state of those who are reforming and regenerating is, that they suppose good and truth to be from themselves, in which opinion they are left for reasons treated of; when they are regenerated, however, they believe good and truth to be from the Lord, in which perception are all the angels, 2946, 2960, 2974. See Good (especially 2, 21). The king- dom of the Lord in man begins from the life, which is of works, and when man is regenerated, and the kingdom of heaven is in him, it also terminates in works, 3934. The Lord's kingdom on earth conjoined to his kingdom in heaven is the communion of all the good, whether i 'I 558 LOR LOR 559 in the church or out of it, 7396. The Lord's kingdom is no other than the divine human of the Lord, by which alone the very divine itself can flow-in and make heaven, 3038, 4069. The spiritual king- dom of the Lord is from the marriage of good and truth in his divine human, 3181; passages cited, 3187. The form of the Lord's spiritual kingdom exists according to the arrangement of affections in his divine human, 3189. The spiritual kingdom of the Lord is separated from his celestial kingdom by the difference with which the Lord is received, 3230, 3235 and citations, 3325 ; see below, 6372. The man of the celestial kingdom is a likeness of the Lord, and does good from love, but the spiritual man is an image of the Lord, and does good from faith; passages cited, 3235; ill, 3240. The spiritual disagree concern- ing what is most essential, namely, concerning the divine, the human, and the holy proceeding of the Lord : how much more concerning other points, 3241; but that it is still one when all are in charity, 3267. The Lord's kingdom consists in the holy internals of the Word, and thus of all doctrine and worship; these are, the Lord's divine human, love to the Lord, and love to the neighbour, 3454. The Lord is all in all in his kingdom, and whatever therein is not from the Lord, and does not regard him, is not of his kingdom, 3705. The Lord's king- dom is a kingdom of ends and uses for the sake of the human race, and man comes into it when he prefers the common good to his own, 3796. The celestial kingdom of the Lord lives from the good that proceeds from him ; the spiritual kingdom from truth thence derived, 3970; the latter in particular, 4669. The spiritual kingdom and the celestial kingdom were one before the Lord's advent, only that the spi- ritual was the external of the celestial, but since then they are distinct, 6372 ; that evil spirits were cast out when they were separated, 6306; and that the human divine was separated from the celestial, and made an essence by itself, 3061, 6371 ; see these several points ill. 6373. The Lord's kingdom is signified generally by the twelve tribes, 6640 ; and by Canaan, 1607, 3038, 3703, 4240, 4763. See King (4). As there is only one life, which is that of the Lord, and as the influx of life and the forms receiving it are in correspondence, therefore all things in nature are variously representative of the Lord's kingdom, 3001, 3002, 5116, 5136, 9280 and citations, 10,030. See Representa- tion. 1 1 . The Lord^s Presence with Man. "When man is undergoing temp- tation it appears as if the Lord were absent from him, but he is then more really present, 840. The Lord appears as absent or far off when man suffers himself to be led by evil spirits, and he is more and more present with him according as he is principled in love and charity, 904, 905. The Lord is present with every one, but more remotely so in the degree that man is not in charity, 981 ; ill. 1096. The Lord is present with the Gentiles in their charity and innocence, for there is no inno- cence and charity but what proceed from him, 932, 1032, 1059, 2049. The Lord is present in charity, and his conjunction with the regenerate is by charity, 1036. The fruit of faith is charity, charity is love, and love is the Lord, 1873. The presence and conjunction of the Lord is by love and charity, because he is love itself and mercy itself, and man can only be conjoined to him by what he is, 1038. The Lord's presence in the intellectual part of the regenerate man, by means of charity, makes } 77^ in^^o !!fu ^^**^ ^ ^®*^®"' ^^'^^ ^^^ voluntary state is a hell, 1043 ; lU. 20o3. The Lord is present with every one who receives charity, thus who has not extmguished the innocence and charity with which he was imbued in infancy, 1050, 1051. The Lord is present with those who have no knowledge of internal truths, providing they have onTn^^'rAu" ^^^^^y^^ charity is, the Lord is operating, 1100, 1150, ^U4j ihe Lord is present in external worship so far as the worshiper is in the true adoration of the Lord, and the adoration of him is ac- cording to love and charity, 1153. The Lord is continually flowing-in iLi o???i ,^°''^' ^^ ^^^ medium of the internal man, 1589; V 1»^4, J041 end. The Lord is present with man by mutual love, which makes the celestial proprium or internal man, 1594; ill. 1707. The Lord IS present in the celestial things of love, but his presence is not perceived until conjunction is effected, and conjunction is by the filling- in of knowledges, 1616; ill. 2064. The conjunction of the Lord is by the internal man, which is the Lord himself with man, ill, 1745. Ihe all of love, which is above perception, internal dictate, and consci- IfiQo ^^ ^ u ^°'".^' *"^ ^^^ *^^^ ^^ ^^^°^ conscience is of man, 1831, lo3w ; that there is parallelism and correspondence between the Lord and man as to things celestial [thus which are above conscience], 1831; but not as to things spiritual, 1 832. The influx of the Lord with man IS by charity into his conscience, and when the conscience is relaxed, there is no medium by which he can operate, 1835, ill, 1999; see below (13). The Lord is present with no one in truth or faith separate trom good, but only in good, that is, in love and charity, and thereby m laith, 2o72. The influx and presence of the Lord is by good into truth, 10,154. The Lord is present with every one, even the worst, ?Sni"^xll'^^®^^\^"^ *^^°^^^°S to reception, 2706, 4198, particularly 0806, 7926; see below, 7681 . The presence of the Lord is accordino- to the quality of man's good, and the quality of man's good is according to the state of innocence, of love, and of charity, into which the truths of faith can be implanted, 2915 end, ill. 6707—6712; that such varie- ties are not in the Lord (according to the author's Index, that various ^Ao<^^ ^m.°°' ^° '^® ^^^^^* ^^* *^^^^ *^ey so appear from reception, 4-06. The presence of the Lord in the natural man disposes all its goods and truths into order, for the Lord is order itself, 5703; that such order is under Christian good as a principle, ill, 5704 ; and that evils and falses cannot infringe upon it, 8206. The presence of the Lord gives the perception of good and truth, and the perception of his presence removes every source of disquiet, 5963. The presence of the Lord bnngs with it deliverance from hell, 6442. Man cannot draw near the divine in body, but only mentally in thought and will ; hence that the divine presence with him is according to the state of his thought and will, 6843, 8439 ; and that the Lord himself is present with man, not man with the Lord, 9415. The presence of the Lord, which con- firms, arranges into order, and protects those who are in good, causes those who are in evil to arrange themselves in the opposite order, and so to rush still more into evil, even into hell, 7681, 7710, 7926, 7989, 8017, 8137, 8264 end, 8265, 8286. The Lord can be present in his own divine human with the spiritual, and thus fight for them in temp- tations ; hence the spiritual were saved by the Lord's advent into the world when he made his human divine, 8159. The presence of the tM 560 LOR Lord more nearly or more remotely is according to the reception of good ; hence the distinction of the heavens ; passages cited, 9680 — 9683. The Lord's presence with the good is in singulars, with the evil in common, 10,146. 12. The Lord's life with Man, called the living soul in all flesh, consists in the remains of innocence, charity, and mercy, which are preserved from infancy ; so far as these are extinguished by man in adult age he is dead, ill, 1050. The Lord's life in man consists in his pure love, and all other life is apparent only, 1735. The yerimost principle of life which all who are in the Lord's kingdom derive from him as their father is mutual love, 1802 end. He who is not in the Lord's love is not in his life, thus he is not a son, or an heir of his kingdom, 1799, 1803 ; ill. 2658. Of those who receive life from the Lord some are more remote, some nearer to him ; thus they are more or less heirs according as they are more or less interior, 1799, 1802. Life from the Lord flows-iu by the internal man, and is communicated by the internal to the external ; but in the case of the Lord the internal was life itself, 1954; ill. 1999. The Lord's life is conjoined toman by influx and reception, whereby man is made living ; but the human essence of the Lord was made Life Itself, 2021, 2658. Man has life from the Lord so far as he loves his neighbour, but the pure love of the Lord, which was his very soul and life when in the world, cannot be given to any man, 2253. Man receives new life from the Lord by the indwelling of the divine human, as he overcomes in temptations; also, that no one can believe in the Lord unless he is in good, or have faith in him unless he is in charity, 2343. All life and salvation are from the divine human and holy proceeding of the Lord, and this because the divine human is pure love, 2343 end. The influx of the Lord's life is according to its reception with angels and men, and the Lord's mercy is such that he permits them to appropriate it as if they lived of themselves; its various influx ill. 3741 — 3743, 4206; and further, that it is of the Lord's mercy that life appears in every one as his own, 4320. The true order of man's life is such that he should be the medium of the divine proceeding to the ultimates of nature, and of ascent from the ultimates of nature to the divine, ill. 3702 ; and that the divine indeed can manifest itself by angels when their proprium is rendered quiescent, ilL and ah. 1925; passages cited 9315; see below (J\), and see Man. 13. The Lord's work in Man. The Lord operates all good in man by the new will, which is conscience or charity, 987, 1001, 1023, 1076, 1077, 1100, 1835; i7/. 2053, 2063. Unless there be influx from the Lord flowing-in by the internal man, the good called spiritual is not good, 6499 — 6500 ; the difference between goods and truths which are of the Lord, and which are not of the Lord, ill. 7564. The Lord's will is to perfect the good of the spiritual man by his own influx through the internal man, and so to draw it towards himself; yet it can never be elevated even to the first degree of celestial good, 6500. Man is prepared to receive truths and goods by temptations, and when a change is thus effected, and he is regenerated, the truth of the church becomes good, and ascends above things external and scientifics, 6506 — 6507. So long as the truth of doctrine or faith predominates, and not the good of charity, the natural man is not subdued to the spiritual, but LOR 561 it is subdued when good has the dominion ; some tokens of its subju- gatioDj 6567. The Lord continually subdues all evil intended to the good to his own ends, so that the very temptations which assail them tend to the corroboration of truth and good ; thus that nothing reigns in the universal spiritual world but the end which proceeds from the Lord, 6574, 6663. The Lord himself fights with man against evils and falses, and associates heavenly societies with him as he becomes regenerate, 66 1 1 ; how the Lord in this way brings salvation to the spiritual ; passages cited seriatim, 6427. The Lord not only provides the means by which man may be drawn from hell and led to heaven, but he also continually draws and leads him, yet with a constant regard to his freedom, ill. 3854; that he never breaks, but bends, &c., 1255. The Lord draws the man who is regenerated continually towards things interior and into heaven, thus nearer to himself, and this from love towards the human race, whom he wills to have with himself, ill. and sh. 6645 ; how ho excites truths and goods in man by means of the angels who are with him, 6647. When celestial love prevails, the Lord disposes all truths with man into a celestial form under that love, and when this order prevails, truths and goods are always excited toge- ther, 6690. All good in man is from the Lord, yet it differs with every one in heaven and earth, and this to such a degree, that even the angels can only know it in some species, 6706. Good from the Lord among Christians makes one man neighbour to another ; and as the Lord is in such good, he is the neighbour in the supreme sense, 6706, 6711. The truth which the Lord insinuates into man is from good ; in the first state of regeneration, however, it does not appear, but acts into truth, but in the second state it manifests itself, 6717. The Lord acts and arranges with those who are reformed by internal influx, even when they are in the midst of evils and falses, providing however there be good and truth in the external to receive his influx, 6724. With those who are led by the Lord all things flow-in, even to the least minimum both of their intellectual and voluntary life, 8495 and citations. All the good and truth of charity and faith, that is, of the new life in man, come from the Lord alone, and goods which serve as means of accommodation to the reception of good and truth from the Lord, come from him by the medium of angels, 8728. The Lord inspires the will of man with good, from which he is free to act, so far indeed as to believe that it is his own, ill. 8988. The Lord does not teach any one divine truth openly or immediately, but by means of the Word, 5952, 10,290; passages cited, 10,375 end. See, on the sub- ject generally. Regeneration. 14. The conjunction of the Lord with the human race, is by the church as a heart, by the medium of heaven and the world of spirits ; and without such conjunction the human race would perish, 637, 2054. The conjunction of the Lord with man by the life of love and faith is the reason why he lives to eternity, 714. The conjunction of the Lord is by love, which forms man into his similitude or likeness, and makes him one with him, ill. 1013. There is no conjunction with heaven (and therefore with the Lord) by externals now that representatives are abolished, 1003, ill. 2037, ill. 3147, 3480. All union and conjunction throughout nature, animate and inanimate, is by love ; thus, all con- junction with the Lord is by love to him and love to the neighbour. o o 562 LOR LOR 563 1055. Love to the Lord and the neighbour conjoins men and angels by the verimost life of heaven, 1121, 205/. The conjunction of the Lord with the human race is by the human essence, 1 985, particularly ill. 1990; and that it is properly called conjunction, not union, 2021. The conjunction of the Lord with those who believe in him is by the faith of charity, ill. and passages cited, 2034, 2836 ; that the Lord is called the seed of the woman from the faith of charity, 25G, 1610 ; and that he alone has celestial seed, and they only are his seed and the heirs of his kingdom who have the faith of charity, 1438, 1608, 2023, 2085, 3038. The conjunction of the Lord with the human race was the cause of his union with the Father, and this because he was love itself, ill, and sL 2034, 2077, 2102. The Lord was conjoined with the human race after the first promise of his advent by the faith of love in him as then to come ; when this ceased, then the Lord came and united the human essence to the divine, ill. 2034. The conjunc- tion of the Lord takes place with man in his impurity, because no one can receive pure intellectual truth, but that such conjunction is by con- science, ill, 2053. The conjunction of the Lord is effected with man by filling good into his truths, whereby conscience is formed ; for, that in all good the Lord is present, &c., 2063 ; see above (11) 1616. The conjunction of the Lord with man is by the human essence made divine, but in order to this conjunction the unclean loves which impede its influx must be removed, 2102. The conjunction of the Lord with the human race is by love and charity, and faith therefrom, 2342. The conjunction of the Lord both with angels and men is by the Word by apparent truths, superior and inferior, into which divine truths flow, 3362, ill, 3364, especially 3376, 6789 ; and as to apparent truths with the angels, 3404, 3405. The conjunction of the Lord with the man of the church is when divine truth proceeding from his divine human is received, 9395, ill. 9396. There is no conjunction with the supreme divine of the Lord, but only with his divine human, because an idea may be formed of the divine human but not of the divine itself, ill, 4211, 5663, 6804. The conjunction of the Lord with man is accord- ing to the state of his thought and affection ; they who are in a most holy idea of the Lord and at the same time in knowledges and afi'ec- tions of good and truth are conjoined with him as to his divine rational, but others as to the divine natural and the divine sensual ; in the latter case are gentile idolaters who live in charity, 4211, compare 5321. The conjunction of the Lord with the natural man is by a medium formed as regeneration proceeds, 5688, 5696, 5698, 5804, 5807, 5816, 5822, 5956. The Lord is conjoined and made present with all in the universe by charity, and all such are known to him as his sons ; also that he knows all others, but that his knowledge of them does not involve conjunction and presence, 6806 ; further, as to his apparent presence or absence according to conjunction, 7056. Those are con- joined to the Lord and thus elevated to heaven who receive the truths of faith and the goods of love proceeding from him, 7200. Man can- not draw near the Lord and be conjoined to him of himself, but the Lord approaches and joins himself to man ; in other words, the Lord draws all men to himself, which makes it appear that they of themselves go to him, ill. 9378, 9401. All communication and conjunction with the Lord is by influx, 9786, 9933. The conjunction of man with the Lord is the state when he is led by the Lord and not by himself, ill. by the Sabbath after six days of labour, 10,360, 10,362, 10,366, 10,730. The conjunction of the Lord with man by the medium of heaven is the end of all worship, 10,436 end, br, ill, 10,452 end; and is eff*ected by the reception of divine truth from the Word, 10,495, 10,632 end, 10,634. 15. To be in the Lord, is to be ia his love, 2227. To be in the Lord is to be in good from him, and they are more interiorly in heaven who are more interiorly in the perception that all good is from him, 2974. The Lord is alone man, and heaven represents him, and is made by good and truth from him ; hence the angels, who are in good and truth, are said to be in the Lord, 2996, e7^. 5130, 5662. The Lord is in those who are such as he describes as the subjects of Chris- tian charity, 4959. Those who are in love to the Lord and love to the neighbour are most conjoined to the Lord and indeed in him, because they are in the divine that proceeds from him, 6370. Good is the Lord himself, and truth from good is the proceeding life of the Lord ; hence, all in heaven are in the Lord's Hfe, 7212. They who are in the Lord manifestly perceive that the all of life flows-in from him, and that it is of the divine love such life is appropriated to them as their own, 8497; and the passages cited, 8495. They who are in the Lord live according to the order of his laws and precepts, because the Lord is order itself, 8512. The angels are said to be in the Lord, because the Lord as to the divine human reigns universally in all things of their thought and will ; also that they not only perceive it to be so, but love it to be so, 8865. 16. The Lord in the other life, appears to every one according to his state, to the evil therefore as the cause of their punishment, 1838 ; see below (72). The Lord in the other life is always a sun, the source of all light, but he appears as darkness and a consuming fire to the evil, 1838, 1839, ill. 9434 ; see Fire. The Lord really appears as a sun or a moon, according to ribeption, and all mental and visual illumi- nation is from him, ill, and numerous passages cited, 9684 ; see below (17), 1053, &c., 3195, 3636, 4380, 7270, (59,) 5704, &c. ; see also Heaven (8, 10), Influx (2), Light (3). 17. The Lord in Heaven, The universal heaven has reference to the Lord, insomuch that all its order and felicity are from him, 550—552. The order of heaven is such that the Lord governs the spiritual by the celestial and the natural by the spiritual, thus all together as one man, 911. The Lord himself to the heaven of the celestial angels is a sun, and to the heaven of the spiritual angels a moon, 1053, 1521, 1529 — 1531, 1837, 1861, 3636, 4696, 7083, 7173, 7270,8812, 9684, 10,130, 10,809. The light of heaven is from divine good by divine truth m the Lord's human, which illustrates all who are in wisdom and intelligence, 3094 ; and this both as to sight and understanding, 2776. The omni- presence of the Lord in heaven causes that all angels and spirits have a constant situation in respect to him, also in respect to every particular angel, and in respect to every man to whom heaven is opened, 1276. The general situation of the angels is at the right hand of the Lord, that of evil spirits at the left hand, that of the middle sort m front, that of the malignant behind, and under foot the hells, 1276. From the order and situation of societies all are most present to the Lord, and any spirit or angel may in like manner be immediately present with o o 2 1 r. tj I Ml I I 564 LOR LOR 565 another or with man, if the state permit, 1274, 1276, 1277, fully tV/. 1376 — 1382 ; and how the Lord's presence and absence is to be under- stood, 9415, 10,146 compared. The societies of heaven are innu- merable, and they are all various, yet they make one whole because they are led by the Lord as one; ill. by the human body, 1285, ill. 1316, 2982, 9276 and citations. The heavens are altogether an image of the Lord's external man, 1590. [When the heavens and the earth are mentioned together], the heavens are understood of the Lord's interior man, and earth of the exterior, 1 733 ; or of the divine rational and the divine natural, 370.5. Some are more remote from the Lord, some nearer to him in heaven, according to their love and charity ; the economy of heaven, br. ill. 1799, 1802; and that some are taken up into heaven and accepted by the Lord immediately after death, 318 end, 319, 1112. See Heaven (3). The whole heaven appears before the Lord as a Grand Man) because the Lord himself is all in all there, and he is the only real man, 1894; also 1276, 2996, 2997, 3624—3649, 3741—3750, 4218—4228, 4625. The Lord in heaven is the Father of all, and he loves all as his sons, 2360 ; how all really are his sons, 3494 end; and that he is the only Father they acknowledge, 14, 15, 1729, 2005, 3035, 3038, 5256, 9303. The Lord is not only in heaven, but he is heaven, 2859. It is the divine human of the Lord that flows in and makes heaven, and not the divine itself except by the divine human, 3038; ill. 7211; see below, 8897. The Lord is the very light of heaven, and light there is of surpassing brilliance compared vfith light in the world, ill. and sh. 3195; passages cited, 9905. The light of heaven is from the divine wisdom of the Lord, and heat there is from his divine love, 3339. Love and faith proceed from the Lord as the sun of heaven, 7083. See Heaven (10), Charity (2). Heaven corresponds to the Lord, and man in the whole and in every part corresponds to heaven ; hence, heaven is a Grand Man, 3624 — 3649, 4219. They who are in heaven*are in the Lord, yea, in his body, 3637, 3638, 3700, 4225. The Lord is the sun of heaven, the source of light in which is intelligence, and of heat in which is love ; from which, as their universal principles, all other correspondences are derived, 3636, 3643 ; see below, 4380, 4390. The Lord is a common centre, and every one in heaven is a centre of all influxes in a heavenly form, 3633, 3641; that he also rules the hells, 3642. The Lord as the sun of heaven does not rise and set but appears constantly, yet according to the reception of light from him, 3708, 881 2. The inmost heaven is the nearest image of the Lord, and is called his likeness ; the lower heavens are images in their degree more common, because it IS a general law that the superior represents itself in the inferior in a more general form, 3739. The Lord appears as a sun at a middle altitude above the plane of the right eye in heaven, and as a moon before the left eye, 1531, 4321, 7078, 9684. Good and truth from the Lord fill the whole heaven, 4380 ; and hence all things have refer- ence to good and truth, 4390. The light that proceeds from the Lord IS received in the third heaven as good, in the second heaven as truth, and in the ultimate heaven as substantiality, forming paradises and cities, &c., 441 1. Divine good and truth from the Lord constitute the whole order of heaven, divine good the essential of order, and divine truth the formal, hence the Lord is order itself, and when order is represented in form it appears as a man, 4839. An image of the whole heaven is contained in every idea of good and truth, which, when opened, appears as a universe leading to the Lord, and this, because it is from him, who is the all of heaven, 4946. See Idea. Heaven is called a marriage from the conjunction of good and truth which proceed from the Lord and make heaven, 6179. See Heaven (6). The divine of the Lord above the heavens is divine good, but the divine in the hea- vens divine truth, 7268. Heaven, properly speaking, is nothing but the divine there formed, for the angels are human forms recipient of the divine, and constituting a common form, which is that of man, 7268. Divine truth immediately proceeding from the Lord, and even its second procedure, does not affect heaven, but these successive [ema- nations] are as radiant belts of flame encompassing the sun of heaven, which is the Lord, 7270; further e7/. 8443, 8760. The divine that is in heaven is the good that is in divine truth proceeding from the Lord, but the divine above the heavens is divine good itself; that the divine in heaven, or good which makes heaven, is to be understood by the Father thai w in heaven, 8328 ; and divine truth in heaven by God, 8760. Divine good from the Lord is communicated to all in heaven universally and singularly, but everywhere according to the power of receiving. 8472. The divine proceeding of the Lord fills all things and makes the life of all in heaven, 8875 end. Divine truth from the Lord makes heaven, because the Lord as to divine good in the other life is a sun, and as to divine truth light, 8897. Heaven is a Grand Man because it is an image of the Lord, and the same image is formed in man when his faculties are opened by afi^ections of good and truth from the Lord, ilL and passages cited, 9279. The Lord dwells in heaven by the reception of good and truth which flow from him as heat and light, 9594 end. All in heaven look to the Lord, and this their continual aspect with him is preserved by love to him and charity towards the neighbour, ill. 9828, br. ill. 9841 ; in addition, that it is the Lord who turns them to him, 10,189. The order of heaven and all its innumerable societies exists from one only good, which is the good of love to the Lord and is from him, ill. 9863 and citations at the end, 9864, 10,261 ; and that there is influx from the Lord into the various goods of heaven, both mediate and immediate ; passages cited, 9682, br. 10,270. All in heaven turn their faces to the Lord, and this to whatever quarter they look ; but all who are out of heaven turn their faces away from him, 9864, ill. 10,130, 10.579 end. As there is a trine in the one person of the Lord so the three heavens are one in ultimates, 9866. A sphere of divine good and truth from the Lord surrounds every society and also every angel in heaven, 9874; passages cited, 10,188; also, that the goods and truths received by the angels are effigies and images of the Lord, 9879. As soon as an angel is elevated into the divine sphere (or the sphere of celestial love in heaven), he comes into manifest perception of the Lord as to the divine human, ill. 9933, 10,159. The Lord is really above heaven, but still as pre- sent as though he were really in heaven; also, that only the divine as it is in heaven can be represented, and that this, to the perception of the . angels, is the divine human, 9946, 9956 ; more particularly as to the Lord's real presence in heaven while yet he is above it, 10,106. It is the divine of the Lord, thus the divine human, that makes heavea f 566 LOR LOR 567 and the church, because the Lord dwells in his own and not in the pro- prium of any one, man or angel, thus that he is all in all, 8h. 9338, 9594 end, 9606, 10,123, 10,153, particularly 10,125, 10,151, 10,157, 10,283, 10,359. See to Inhabit. There is no other heaven but that of the Lord, and though evil spirits seek another they do not find it, 458, 2751, 7086. See Heaven (especially 6, 7, 8). Influx proceeds into all the heavens immediately from the Lord, and also mediately by one heaven into another, and the same into the interiors and exteriors of man, 6058, 6063, 6466, 6472, 7004, 7270, 8685, 8701, 8717, 8728, 9682, 9683. See Influx (1, 7, 11); Life (14). 18. Manifestations of the Lord, To the men of the most ancient church, with whom the Lord spake mouth to mouth, he appeared as a man ; they also regarded him as the only man, and themselves as men from him, 49 ; passages cited, 306 1 . The Lord appeared as a man to the prophets, and he also called himself the son of man, or man, sh, 49. The men of the most ancient church had their knowledges of truth by revelations, for they discoursed with the Lord and with angels, 125, 597. The Lord speaks with every one more nearly or more re- motely according to their state of love and faith, 904. The men of the most ancient church were in such love to the Lord that they had a clear perception of all things pertaining to faith ; they knew also that the Lord would come, and the sweetest of their delights in the love of offspring was from the influx of this perception, 1123. The worst of their posterity (except those who perished) knew also that the Lord would come, but they thought of him as a bearded old man, 1124. Those who perished thought much of God also, but they believed men, thus themselves, to be gods, and were confirmed in their phantasy by dreams, &c., 1268; their dreadful phantasy ill. from experience, 1270. The Lord was able to assume the human essence without being born as a man, and was seen as a man in the most ancient times, and more recently by the prophets, 1573. The Lord appeared to the fathers of the most ancient church and also to Abraham and the prophets as a man, because Jehovah is very man in esse ; hence it pleased him to be born as a man in the world, &c., 1894. The Lord appeared to Moses and others in ancient times, and spake with man, by the medium of angels, the angel in every case believing that he was Jehovah himself, i//. and sh. 1925; see below, 6831. Jehovah, or the infinite Esse, could not appear to man except by the human; thus, that it was the Lord who appeared in ancient times, 1990, 2016, 5663. The Lord appeared to Moses and the elders of Israel, but only according to the externals in which they were ; that he appeared otherwise to John, who saw him as the Word, 2162. It was known to the ancients that the Lord would come into the world and would become a sacrifice, and hence it was that they sacrificed their sons, 2818. The wise ancients, who were in celestial and spiritual love, knew that the Lord would come into the world, that Jehovah would be in him, and that he would make the human in itself divine, and thus save the human race, 3419. All in the ancient church who had not separated charity from faith believed the God of the universe to be a divine man, and they called him Jehovah ; they knew this from the elder ancients and also from his appearance as a man to many of their brethren, 4692, 4727, 6876. The Jewish church believed Jehovah to be man and God because he appeared to Moses and the prophets as a man, but they thought of him as the gentiles of their gods, and called every angel who appeared Jehovah, 4692, 9315; that they believed in many gods, but believed Jehovah to be greatest, 7401. Jehovah appeared as an angel when he manifested himself previous to his advent into the world, because the divine itself was made manifest by its transflux through heaven, thus by the divine human ; hence that the divine human is caUed the angel of Jehovah, the Sent, 6831, 10,528, 10,579. The Lord has always manifested himself according to reception, thus iri one way to Moses, and in another to the people who were under the mount, ilL and sh, 6832 The God of the ancient church was the Lord as to the divine human ; it was also known to them that he was represented m their rituals, and to many of them that he would come into the world and make the human divine in himself; this, because he appeared to them as a divine man, &c., 6846-6847, 6876. The divme was always known and manifested as a divine man because heaven is a Grand Man, and the divine was made manifest by passing through heaven ; hence, that the divine human is the only and necessary mediator between the divine and man, 8705, 10,579. Jehovah became manifest in external form before the Jews, because they were without good and truth in which to perceive his internal presence, 8792 A manifestation of the Lord in the sun of heaven to the spirits of Mercury, to the spmts of Jupiter, and to those who when they were men saw him in this world ; also, that the spirits of Jupiter acknowledged him as the God of the ^^^^ verse who had appeared to them in their earth, 7173. ^Jhe Lord mam- fested before the author and the spirits ^[^'^^^.^ T^t the S an aneelic society, 10,810,10,811; see below (65).

The Lord called himself the Son of Man as divine truth, not as the Son of Mary, 10,053. The Lord in the supreme sense is the Grand Man, and he came into the world that he might make the human divine, that all things might have reference to himself, 3637; and the summary of this doctrine, 3061.

As the First-Begotten, and the Only-Begotten, The Lord is called the first-begotten as to his human essence, because all love and consequently the faith of love proceeds from him, 352. By the Lord as the Son, the only one, is meant the divine rational or divine human, 2772, 2827, 2844 compared. The Lord called the only-begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, denotes the divine human by which alone the divine can flow-in, 3038. The Lord was the only-begotten Son of Jehovah ; hence his internal human was divine ; and like the soul of man, it formed the body to its likeness, ///. 6716. By the only- begotten Son is meant the Lord as to divine truth, from which also he called himself the Son of Man, 8127. 21. Why born into the world. The Lord was pleased to be born, that he might unite the divine celestial proprium to the human propriura m his human essence, 256, 2/9; thus, that he might conjoin and unite the external man to the internal, 1587. The Lord was born in a church which had utterly fallen into an infernal and diabolical proprium, 256, 3857. The Lord, by his coming in the flesh, liberated the world of spirits from the antediluvians ; and unless this had been done, the human race must have perished, 1266, 1673, 2025 end; particularly 2034. The Lord was born as a man that he might assume the iniquities and evils of the human race, in order to ovetcome them; and such evils could only be put on by the hereditary way, 1573. The Lord had no need to be born as a man, unless to put on and overcome evil, because he could assume the human essence without nativity, 1573. It may appear to some that the Lord who is omnipotent might have subjugated the hells without coming into the world ; but unless he had thus come, and, by temptations admitted into himself, had subdued the hells and glonfied his human, the human race could not have been saved, nor, indeed, any who were born in this world from the time of the most ancient church; that it is sufficient to know and believe this, 1676 The Lord came into the world that he might be made Justice for the human race; and he made himself Justice, by temptations and by vie- tones therein, over all evils and over all the heUs, 1813. Jehovah who IS very man in esse, was pleased to be born as a man because all that was truly human had perished in the world, 1894. Unless the Lord had actually assumed the human essence by nativity, mankind must have penshed in eternal death, and this, because the divine and the human could not otherwise be conjoined, 1990 ; what such conjunction and disjunction consists in, 1999; and that the communication is by the human umted to the divine, 2016; further ill, 2034. The cause ot the Lord s advent into the world was the conjunction of the human LOK 569 race with him, which conjunction could only be maintained by the faith ot love and charity, ill. and sh. 2034, 2077, 2102, 2853. The Lord's advent into the world and the union of the human essence with the divine, was the means of saving the human race, 2218, 2236 The Lord came into the world when the bond between heaven and the human race was dissolved ; and thus, by the union of the human essence with the divine, he conjoined heaven and earth, and at the same time insti- tu ed a new church ill. 2243, 2853. By the union of the human essence with the divine in the Lord the evil were separated from the good, and the latter saved ; also, that they who are in external worship could not have been saved, unless the Lord had come into the world, 2457 The Lord put on the human that he might combat with the hells and over- come them because the divine does not combat, 2523 ; that he con- tinually fights with man, and for man with hell, and holds him from evil with a mighty power, 2406. The Lord was born into the world that divine good might flow-in and be conjoined with rational truths in man, yea, with scientifics and sensuals, which are hardly other than milacies ; that this could only be by the divine human, 2554, ill. 3195. Ihe Lord came into the world to save the spiritual, not the celestial; had the latter remained in their integrity the Lord had no need to be born ill. and*A. 2661, 2716; that the obscurity of the spiritual receives Illustration from the divine human of the Lord, 2716; and that the spirittial were saved by the union of the human with the divine, 2764 loV- ^^lf ^o^^io^^-^ ^""^ '^^"^^> 2^33' 2834, 2848, 2861, 2869, IVJ^t^.o.^^^^^ '^^^ ^'^^ ^^^^^^°"^' 8^49 and citations, 8105 1 r J ol37, 8159, ill. and passages cited, 8261. It is generally believed that the Lord suff"ered for the human race, and thus took away their sms ; but the truth is, the passion of the cross was the last ot temptation, by which he fully united the human to'the divine and the^ divme to the human, whereby also the human race was saved, 2//6; passages cited, 10,026 end. Unless the Lord had come into the world and united the human to the divine, the perceptive faculty of good and truth would have been utterly lost to man, ill. 2776; see below, 4733. The Lord came into the world and put on the infirm human that he might reduce all to obedience and bring all into order, by temptations admitted into himself, and this because the divine and the divine human cannot be tempted, 2795. The Lord was pleased to be born into the world when he could no longer afi'ect the human race by the divine clothed with the human in the Grand Man, 3061. The Lord was the light of heaven from eternity, and he was willing to be born a man that he might also be light to those who are in thick dark- ???fi? ^*^u ^^° ^*^® removed themselves so far from good and truth, ^195. The Lord came into the world in the fulness of time, that is, in the consummation of the age, or when there was not any good re- maining, in order that the internal truths of the Word might not be profaned, for where there is no good there can be no internal acknow- ledgment of truth, 3398. Before the Lord came into the world the divme Itself flowed into the universal heaven which then consisted for the most part of celestial men, and from such influx light was brought forth to the human race ; it was when this light could no longer be produced through heaven in consequence of the departure of man from love and charity, that the Lord assumed the human, and himself illu- 570 LOR minated the whole heaven and the whole world, 4180, 6280. The Lord was pleased to assume the human and "^^^^^t divine because men are of such a quality that they can only worship that of which they can form to themselves some idea, and lest therefore only idols or deceased men, who might be devils, should be worshiped, 4733. Ihe Lord from eternity is a divine man, for so he was Jehovah in heaven, but he took upon him the human that men might have an idea of the divine, which had else utterly perished, together ^Jth all that is celestial and spiritual, in things corporeal and terrestrial, o 1 1 0. 56G3. Before the Lord's coming a great part of heaven was occupied by infernal spints, and these, by assuming the human and making it divine, he expelled, and thus liberated heaven from them and gave it ^^^ possession to his spiritual kingdom, 6306, ill. 6373, 7686, 8054 8294 end ; that the spiritual were then separated from the celestial, 6372 ; and that the divine human from henceforth existed as an essence by itselt, 3001 ; see below, 6854, 6858. When the Lord came into the world, and made the human divine he assumed in his own person the power which he had given to the angels of his celestial kingdom, 6371. Ihe Lora took the human upon himself and assumed this power because order could no longer be preserved by its transflux through heaven, i//. OJ/^. The Lord saved the spiritual by his advent into the worid because they were such as the divine passing through heaven could not reach, this also, because their doctrinals were not truths, and consequently their good not good, 6854. The Lord by his advent into the wor d elevated the spiritual from the lower earth into heaven, and thus de i- vered them from the surrounding hells by which they were infested ; of such also he then formed the second or spiritual heaven, 68d4 ; that evil spirits and genii had formeriy occupied the whole region of hea.-en to which they were elevated, 6858; more fully *//. 6914, / 090 and citations; and that now by the holy proceeding from the divine human the heavens and the hells are alike preserved in order, 0804. lUe Lord had always manifested his divine human m an angelic human form, but he was pleased to be born a man that he ^^g^*^ actually put on the human and make it divine; passages cited, 931.5, 10, j/ J. Unless the Lord had come into the worid, and opened the interiors ot the Word, the communication of heaven with the worid by means ot the Word would have been broken, and the human race must have perished from this earth, 10,276 end. At the time immediately pre- ceding the Lord's coming, the infernal crew raged almost without con- trol, infesting and attempting to subdue all, 8289. For the reason why the Lord was born on this earth see below (64); and why born at Bethlehem (76), 4592, 4594. ^.. x j u rvo 22. His state when horn and afterwards. The Lord was born like another man, and hence he progressed from an obscure to a more lucid state, 1401; see below, 1557, 1561. The Lord progressed from sci- entifics to celestial truths, 1402. The state of the Lord when born is a profound mystery; in general he was hke another man, only that he was conceived from Jehovah, and yet born of a woman, a virgin, trom whom he derived the common infirmities of men, 1414. The heredi- tary principle which the Lord derived from the Father was divme, that from the mother was the infirm human, afterwards made divine, 1414. 1444. The sensual and corporeal principles were with the Lord as LOR 571 with other men, but, unlike the case with others, they were at length united to celestial principles and made divine, 1428. The progression of the Lord in the world was the progression of the human essence to its union with the divine, 1426, 1428, 2523. The truth first insinu- ated into the Lord when a boy was sensual, but it was such as sees some likeness of the kingdom of God in every created thing, because he alone was a celestial man, 1434; ill. 1807. the Lord alone was born with celestial seed, because from Jehovah ; whereas the seed of other men is infernal, 1438. The life of the Lord from nativity to boyhood consisted in the procedure of the celestial seed forming a state of love, 1438. The soul comes into light in the celestial state; hence the Lord had perception, and Jehovah appeared to him when he was yet a boy, 1440, 1442, 1443, 1446; see below, 1990, 2137. The hereditary evil of the external man, which the Lord derived from the mother, was the cause of his temptations ; but this he fought against and overcame, and hence he had no actual evil, 1444, 1573. The Lord was introduced into the celestial state according to order, thus, by de- grees, from infancy to boyhood, and this because he was born like another man, 1450. The Lord was not born into knowledges, but he imbued them in the external man according to influx, and this in boy- hood, after he had imbued the celestial things of love, 1450, 1451, 1458, 1460; see below, 1548. The Lord was instructed as another man from the Word, 1457, 1461. The Lord in his boyhood imbued no other knowledges than those of the Word, 1461, 1462. The Lord in his boyhood was eminently above others in the power of learning, 1464. The Lord did not learn truth, but the truth was always adjoined with good in his internal man ; the knowledges he acquired were only the vessels of the external man, by which the way was opened to the influx of truth, 1432, 1468—1470; see below, 1541; and that all truth with the Lord was from a celestial origin, 2503. The Lord was instructed from his Father according to all order by knowledges as means, 1475. The Lord, when a boy, knew that all knowledge was for the sake of use in human society and the Lord's kingdom ; and that the celestial principle could only live in such use, 1472. The Lord in boyhood was captivated with the delight of perceiving the truth in sci- ence, 1484. Knowledges are acquired in boyhood with no end in view but knowing, but in the case of the Lord from the delight and affection of truth, 1487. The scientifics acquired in boyhood are only the means of ultimately becoming rational, and when they have served to this end they are destroyed ; so in the case of the Lord, who was born and instructed as another man, only according to divine order, 1487, 1489 ; see below, 1499. The Lord's memory, thus his consideration of things, was derived from science, or from Jehovah by science, 1491, 1492. The Lord, when a boy, knew no other in the first place than that sci- entifics were for the sake of arriving at truths, but afterwards that they were for celestial ends, ill. 1495. The Lord came into intellectual truth in boyhood ; how this differs from rational truth and scientific truth, 1496; and how scientific truths are relinquished or dissipated, 1499 — 1502. The Lord in his boyhood willed the separation of such things in his external man as impeded its conjunction with the internal ; he also knew the quality of the external when not conjoined and when conjoined, and that all power in the latter case would be his, 1537 — 572 LOR 153U; see below (43), 2171, cited after 2207. When the Lord, m boyhood, relinquished scienti6cs, celestial truths remained with hini, 1541, 1545. The Lord first relinquished the scientifics of the under- standing, and afterwards the pleasures which favour the lusts of the will, both of which prevent man's becoming celestial, 1542, 1547. The Lord came into interior light in boyhood, first by imbuing the good of love, and afterwards by knowledges implanted therein, 1548; that he imbued love first and knowledges afterwards, 1556. The Lord, from his earliest infancy, proceeded according to divine order, first to celes- tial principles, and afterwards in them, 1554. The Lord proceeded according to order from the light of intelligence to the light of wisdom ; how three distinct planes are formed in this procedure, ill. 1555. As the Lord acquired knowledges, he arrived at the celestial state in which he was when a boy, and, by degrees, at the celestial state of infancy in which the human essence was fully conjoined to the divine, 1557; that the prior celestial states are made lucid by knowledges, 1561; both ill. 1616 ; and that the life of the Lord was'love to the whole human race, such indeed that it was pure divine love, 1690, 2253. The Lord's state was such that evils and falses at first served with apparent goods and truths, and were not manifest to him until the age of boyhood, 1653. The Lord fought against evils and falses as they became mani- fest, and hereby came into temptation-combats, 1653, 1654, 1661. It was by such temptations and victories that the external man was united to the internal, and thus made divine, 1725—1729, 1733, 5041. The union of the external and the internal in the Lord was effected by temp- tations and victories, because it was only evil which disunited them, 1603, 1607 end. The union of the Lord as to the external man with the celestial internal was by knowledges, because there could be no combat except from the knowledge of contrary principles, 1661; also because knowledges in the external man are the recipient vessels of the internal; passages cited above, 1432, 1450, 1462, 1472, 1475, 1487, 1495, 1548, 1557, 1561, 1616. The progress of the Lord to conjunc- tion and union with Jehovah was by successive degrees, by continual temptations and victories, because he was born in ignorance, and into sensual and corporeal affections, like another man ; passages cited above, 1401, 1428, 1450, 1487, 1557, 1542, 16.53; to which add, 1864,2,523. Generally, that the Lord's internal man was Jekovah, and th^t he united the external man or human essence to the internal, 1999, 2004, 2005, 2011, 2018, 2021, 2025; that he united the human essence to the divine by his own power, and was thus made Justice, 1921, 2025 ; and that his progress in the union of the human essence with the divine was according to his instruction by continual revelations, 2500, ill. 3382. 23. Haw like and how unlike other men. See above (22) particu- larly, 1414, 1428, 1438, 1457, 1464, 1472, 1487, 1554, 1690. The Lord differed from all other men in this, that Jehovah was inmostly in all and singular things with him as his verimost life or soul, 1902, 1921 ; ill. 2026. The Lord was born like another man, and came into order like another man, even as to the rational mind, but with this difference, that he was imbued with the life of love for the whole human race, 1902. The Lord was unlike all other men in this, that the interior was conjoined to the internal or divine from nativity by its goods ; but LOR 573 he was like other men in this, that it was conjoined to the external or human by its truths, 1707. The Lord wai distinguishedTom al other men in the ability to think from the divine as from himself thus fromim^^^^^^ 19,4, 193,^ The Lord was instructed as another man, but his reception of wisdom differed from that of other men m the degree that his love was infinitely greater, 2500.

The Lord, like other men, always elevated the rational w«rhn?n ^'^7"?- temptations, 2857. The Lord, unlike other men, was born a celestial spiritual man, 4592, 4594 ; see below (32). The Lord was born like other men as to all that is taken from the mother, consequently his human was internal and external; but in place of inte' nor evil, which every other man derives from his father, he had divine good, because his father was Jehovah, 4963. The human of the Lord was not divme from nativity, for he was born like another man, and learned to speak in his infancy, and afterwards increased in intelligence and wisdom, like others; but that the inmost of life, which continually flows and operates into the external, and which every one derives from his father, was the divine itself in the Lord, i//. 6716 The Lord was unlike other men after his resurrection in this, that his whole human was made divine, so that he was no longer the Son of Mary L"e bdow r ^'^ ^^""^^ ^°'^^' ^^^^' ^^M^, 10,125, 10,252, 10,825;' 24. How the Father was in him and he in the Father.

The Lord was the Son of God not only from conception but nativity, because he put off and separated from himself all the human derived from the IJ!?fn '"' i"?^"^"c*^ that the divine esse itself existed in his human. 2649, and the same at the end; 2803. Jehovah was manifested in the human essence of the Lord even in his state of humiliation, yet not as one with him, 1990. So far as the Lord was in the infirm human, thus so tar as his external and internal man were not one, he prayed to Jehovah as to one distinct from himself althoueh in himself 1 990 1999, 2265, 2288, 2580. The divine itself was actually in the human! and present to the Lord so much as his human was glorified, 7058 While the Lord was in the World he put off the human and put on the divme, yet the divine was never separate from him, 2010, 2063 2159 2198, 2288, 2511, 2592. The Lord perceived the divine manifested to him in the human, and he willed that it should approach nearer to him by putting on somewhat natural ; he also willed that his human should draw nearer the divine by putting on the celestial, 2137 ill 2161--2163, 2165, 2171 ; that he was in two states of perception when in the world, 2098; and that from the power of the divine within 574 LOR him, he could take upon himself any state, 2786, 2795, 2/96. When Jehovah appeared to the Lord he perceived the threefold divme essence in himself, and how his human was to be assumed by the divme in order to the salvation of the human race, 2149— 21o6, 2218. Ihe union of the divine and the human in the Lord was a mutual or reci- procal union, and on this account it is compared to a marriage, 20U4, 2011 2012, 2620—2626, 2649, 2798, 2803. The divme in the Lord was above the inmost of the rational ; and the human in him, as in other men, began in the inmost of the rational, 2106, 2194. Ihe divine in the Lord was the inmost [principle] of his life answermg to the soul in man, which is received from the father; this divme pnn- ciple also had its influx and operation into the body derived from the mother, ilL 6716, and further, 10,125. The Lord was the divine human, which had been the divine in heaven from eternity ; but whereas he had previous to his advent assumed the human form by passing through heaven, he now made himself really and essentially man, 10,579. , . ^ i . -^ 25. The Human derived from the Mot her y was infirm, but it was brought into perfect correspondence with the divine, 1414. The corre- spondence of the human with the divine obtains with the Lord alone, who is alone and perfect man, 1414, end. The human and the divine could not be brought into correspondence until hereditary evil derived from the mother was expelled, 1477. The human of the Lord was united to the divine after it had been purified of all that he derived from the mother, 1793. The external which the Lord derived from the mother was united to the internal or divine by temptation-combats, and until this union took place it appeared to the Lord that Jehovah was another than himself, 1815, the latter ill. 1999, 2159, 2580 ; and that the divine was in the human so far as hereditary evil from the mother was expelled, 7058. The maternal or hereditary principle derived from the mother was what the Lord had to relinquish, and which he relinquished as he overcame evils and falses, 1816. The evil of the hereditary nature derived from the mother was what the Lord subjugated and expelled by his own power, 1921. The Lord made the human essence divine by expelling all evil therefrom, and this by his own power, 2107. The Lord overcame and utterly expelled the infirm human, so that nothing derived from the mother remained, 2159 ; inso- much that he was no longer her son, 2574, 2649, 2657 end, 4692 end, 6866, 9315 and citations, 10,053, 10,057. The human derived from the mother was as dust and ashes compared with the divine, and the Lord in this human was in a state of humihation ; that he altoge- ther expelled it, and put on the divine human in its place, 2265. The Lord separated and put off from himself all the human derived from the mother, and this successively and continually, during his whole life in the world; that he spoke to his mother, when o^ the cross, accord- ing as she thought, 2649. The separation and putting off of the maternal human cannot be understood by those who have merely cor- poreal ideas concerning the human of the Lord, and think of it as the human of another man, 2649 end. The Lord put off all that was not life in itself, that is, all that was merely human, 2658; his state when he first thought of separating it from himself, 2659, and sequel. When the Lord was in the human from the mother he was in appearances of LOR 575 Ind nnt nn tL l.""^ '.^' ^T"^ '^ ^' P^' ^^ '^^'^ appearances, and put on the infinite and eternal, 3405. The human from the mother was internal and external Hke that of other men, yet only as T the clothings or exteriors in which was evil; the inmost, answering to the soul which man receives from his father was all divine, 4963, 5041 Ihe divine love itself, had influx through the inmost of the Lord's life into all that he did from the human derived from the mother; thus, it ruled his minutest actions to the end that the human race might be saved, 5042.

The human essence of the Lord is called the seed of the woman, 256, 1610. The human essence was introduced and united to the divine by continual combats and victories gamed m its own strength, 1661, 1707—1708, 1739; see below, 2025. liie human essence of the Lord is celestial love itself, 1675 The i^JJf'' ^?^T ""^ ^^^ ^"'■^ ^^ "^^^t ^^ ^»"^d the Son of man, 1607, i A . u I^™*'^ essence of the Lord, after temptation-combats, was V?!;^ to the divine essence, and made Jehovah itself, 1729, ill. 1737 1 738 end. The union of the human essence with Jehovah is full and eternal, so as to be Jehovah himself; the conjunction of the Lord with the angels, til 1745; the latter only, 1925. The human essence of the Lord was not born Justice, but it was made Justice by continual combats and victones over the hells, and this from pure love, 1813. It is to the human essence of the Lord that the prophetic promises apply, for as to the divine the whole universe was his from eternity^ 1817 The human essence is the only medium by which the divine can be mani- fested to man, and Jehovah was manifested in the human essence of the Lord while it was not yet fully united to the divine, 1990. The T v?° ^?,f ''''^ '''''^^^ ^"^ ^^^ ^^^^°® is also hfe itself, and not a recipient of hfe, tlL 2021; ill. and sh, 2658. The human essence of the Lord was left to Itself in conflict with all the hells, and because it had life in Itself It overcame them by its own powers, 2025; see below 10,055. 1 he human of the Lord, like that of all other men, began in the inmost ot the rational, above which was the divine, 2106, 2194, 2827, 3161 3704. The human of the Lord after being glorified or made divine is not to be conceived as human, but as divine love in human form, ill. 473o, particularly 10,125; and not as a recipient of life, but as the very esse of hfe from which life proceeds, 5256. Unless the human of the Lord were divine it could not possibly be united to the divine itself on account of the ardour of infinite divine love ih which the merely human would perish, 6849, 6834. It was the divine assumed the hunian, and from the human fought against hell and subjugated it, and at the same time united the human to the divine, 10,055. The Lord was made innocence itself as to the human when he was in the worid and all innocence proceeds from him, 10,132. For the representation of the Lord as to the human essence, see Abraham (supplement). 576 LOR 27. The Divine Human of the Lord existed from the divine itself, 2268. The divine human of the Lord was not only conceived but also born of Jehovah ; hence the Lord as to the divine human is called the Son of God and the Only-begotten, 2628, 2798, 2803 ; passages cited, 3061 The divine human of the Lord is the name of Jehovah, that is, his quality, 2628, *;i. 6674, 6887, 8274, 9310, 10,615. The divine human is and exists from the divine spiritual united to the divine celes- tial 2629. The divine human is the same as divine tnith, 2643. The Lord, as to the divine human, from eternity, was truth itself, and the same after he was born into the world, 2803 end. The Lord admitted temptations into himself, and prepared himself for them as to the human divine, 2816. It was from his divine human that the Lord sustained temptations, and it is the divine human whereby he saves the spiritual, ill. and sh. 2714. The divine human could not itself be tempted, hence the infirm human was adjoined thereto by the Lord when he underwent temptations, 2795; the former tV/. 7193. Jt was not the divine human or divine truth therein that was tempted, but the human divine as to truth divine, which is in appearances, 2814. There is influx of light from the divine human of the Lord into the aflTectioa of sciences and into the appearances of truths with the spiritual, whereby they are illuminated, 2671, 2716, ill 2776, 2828-2834. 2836, 2841, 2848 — 2851; see below, 3195 and passages cited, 7719, 9684. The divine human of the Lord is the all of worship and the all of doctrine, 2811; see below, 5321. It is the divine human of the Lord that flows-in into heaven and makes heaven, sh. 3038. The divine human was from eternity, notwithstanding the Lord was born in time, for it was Jehovah in heaven clothed with the human ; thus the divine human was the divine itself in heaven or in the Grand Man, 3061, 5663 ; see below, 4180, 6000, 6280, 6831. Since Jehovah descended, and as- sumed the human by divine conception and nativity, the divine human exists an essence by itself, which fills the whole heaven and is the means of salvation to those who before could not be saved, 3061 ; that divine truth from the divine human fills heaven, 7873 ; and that the spiritual are saved because the Lord can be present with them m his divine human, so that they can now sustain temptations, 8159 ; their salvation by faith in the Lord, br. ill. 8172, 8179. The divine human is the going-forth of divine good and its outbirth by means of divine truth into the rational, 3194, 3210; compare 3141; and that the birth of the Lord from divine truth means as to the divine, 3210. The divine human was the Lord from eternity as good itself and truth itself; hence the Lord is called the light, and he was born into the world that he might illuminate the rational and natural man, ill. and sh. 3195; see below, 9571. The divine human is called a servant, under the symbol of Abraham my servant, Israel my servant, Jacob my servant, and David my servant, because it serves as a medium of access to the divine) whereby men have salvation, 3441, 8241 ; see below (56). Divine truth from eternity flowed-in and was received by the human race through the medium of heaven, but as this was not sufficient when man removed himself from the good of love, therefore the Lord then came into the world and made the human in itself divine, from which divine truth might afterwards proceed and save those who would receive it in good, 4180, 6280, 6373. All truth that LOR 577 proceeds from the Lord's divine human is holy, because the divine human is the very marriage of good and truth, 4575 ; hence the in- violability of the divine human, also of its union with heaven, and of the marriage of good and truth, 8S87 end. The human made divine is the source from which divine truth flows into heaven, and from heaven into human minds, consequently which rules and governs the universe, 4687. In the divine human the Infinite Existing is made one with the Infinite Esse, 4687, 4692. All divine truth wheresoever it be in the universe must proceed from the divine human, because the infinite divine itself cannot be communicated either to angel, spirit, or man, 4724 ; also, that they acknowledge the divine alone separate from the divine human who are in the life of faith separate from charity, 4724, 4731, 7097; see above (7) particularly, 2326, 3212, 4689. By the divine human of the Lord in a celestial sense is meant divine love itself, which is love to the whole human race, desiring their happiness to eternity and willing to appropriate its own divine to them, ill, 4735. The divine human is the all of doctrine because there can be no pro- cedure of doctrine from the divine itself, whatever proceeds therefrom being incomprehensible, because it infinitely transcends human under- standing, 5321; but that such truths as can be received proceed from the divine human, 6374. An idea of God formed from the human, whatsoever quahty it be, providing only it flows from the good of inno- cence is accepted, 5321 ; see above (14) 4211 ; and on the other hand, if no idea be formed from the human, the mind at last relapses into the worship of nature, 6876. Before the advent of the Lord the divine human was not so One with the diviife itself as when the Lord assumed it in person and made it one, 6000. The divine human before the Lord*s advent was Jehovah himself passing through or flowing-in by heaven when the word was spoken; now, however, the divine does not become the divine human in heaven, but the divine human itself flows- m, 6280; see above, 3061; and see below, 6720. The Lord himself as to the divine human is above heaven, for he is the sun of heaven ; the divine human in heaven is divine truth proceeding from him as light from the sun, 6280. By the divine transflux through the celestial kingdom before the coming of the Lord the celestial angels had power, but when he made the human divine he also assumed this power to himself, 6371; that the natural must needs be regenerated in order that there may be influx through the internal from the Lord, and that the internal is otherwise closed, 6299. The divine in heaven, called the human divine, was assumed to himself by the Lord because heaven was not pure and things had fallen into disorder, insomuch that hea- ven was infested by evil spirits, ill. 6373 ; that they actually occupied a great part of heaven, 6306, 6858, 8294; and more fully ill. 6914, 7090, 7686, 8054. The Lord made his human divine, by transflux from the divine through heaven; not that heaven contributed anything from itself, but that the divine could not flow into the human except by transflux through heaven, 6720. The divine human of Jehovah was presented to view before the Lord's advent by the transflux of the divine through heaven, and hence as a divine man or angel, 6831 ; also, that order was preserved by heaven before the human was made divine, 7931. The Lord as the divine human reigns universally in all things of heaven, and all things of the world; also, that the divine human is p p 578 LOR LOR meant by Jehovah because the divine cannot otherwise be approached, ill, and passages cited, 8864, 8865. They who are in evil cannot acknowledge the divine human of the Lord, and though some who are distinguished by their intellectual acumen may understand it, they can- not believe it, 8878. The Lord as to the divine human is called the angel of the faces of Jehovah because the divine human is the divine itself in face or form, ill. md sh. 9306, 9571. The divine human of the Lord is the sun of heaven, the source of its light, and this light is the divine truth from which comes all mental illumination; 9571, and citations. The infinite divine is above all finite comprehension, but the divine in heaven is perceived by the angels as the divine human, which is therefore the alone holy, 9956, ilL and «A. 10,067, 10,3.59. The Lord as to the divine human is the very order of heaven, to which every one who is regenerated must be reduced, 9987 end. Whether you say the divine human of the Lord or divine truth it is the same thing, because the Lord was the divine truth itself when in the world, and now divine truth proceeds from him, 10,258. Whether you say the divine good of the divine love or the divine human it is the same, 10,285, because the Lord made himself divine good when he went out of the world, 10,258. Nothing is holy but what proceeds from the Lord's divine human, and all that proceeds from it is holy, sh. 9229; passat^es cited, 10,267; that this procedure is what is meant by the holy spirit, 6788, 6864. See Holy (especially 2); and see below (59), 4735, 5272, 6982, 6993, 9407, 9818; (3.5), 3210. 28. The Human Divine is the human essence of the Lord before his glorification, 281 1, 2813, 2814. The human divine was the divine transflux through the celestial heaven, which also presented itself to view as a divine man when Jehovah appeared, before the Lord came into the world; and that the human divine then ceased, 6371 ; compare 6000, 6720, 6831, cited above (27). 29. The Conjunction of the Human with the Divine, The human essence of the Lord was inaugurated into conjunction with the divine from boyhood, 1502. The conjunction of the human essence with the internal or divine was effected more and more as scientifics and know- ledges were imbued, 1536, ill. 1616, 1900. There was much in the external man that impeded conjunction, from which the Lord therefore willed to be separated, 1537; see below, 1659. The human was fully conjoined to the divine when the celestial state of infancy was made lucid by the implantation of knowledges, 1557 end, and 1561 com- pared. The human essence, or external man, which is the same thing, was conjoined to the internal in the case of the Lord only, 1577, 1584. The human essence was united to the divine in the Lord, when by his own strength he overcame the devil and hell, that is, when he expelled all the evil by which they were disunited, 1603, 1607 end. The Lord conjoined his human essence or external man to the internal by degrees, as knowledges were implanted and the celestial state of love formed in wisdom, ill. 1616, 1690. The conjunction of the external man with the internal was impeded by hereditary evil from the mother, which was expelled by combats and temptations before their union could be effected, 1659. The external man was conjoined to the internal by the interior as a medium, and this as its apparent goods were made genuine by temptation-combats and victories, 1 708. The conjunction 579 or union of the human with the divine was a conjunction with love Itself, which is Jehovah, and this was effected by the Lord himself by contmual combats and victories from his own power, 1737, compare 1690. The human essence was gradually united to the divine by con- tmual combats and victories, whereby the Lord in his own strength procured to himself the celestial things of love, 1738 end. The human of the Lord was united to the divine after he had purified it of all that he derived from the mother, 1793. The union of the human essence with the divine was the proper consequence of the subjugation and expulsion of evil, and both were effected by the Lord by his own power, 1921; the latter, 2966, and citations. The human essence was continually approaching to a perfect union with the divine because it was conceived from it, and the divine essence cannot be divided hke the soul of a man when he conceives offspring, 1921; that it existed in the human by its union to the divine, 2649 end. The human essence was conjoined to the Divine as the truths and goods of the external man were reduced into order so as to be one with the internal, 1928. The union of the human essence with the divine is the same as the union of truth with good, 1986, ill. 2004 ; see below, 2011; or, of the affection of truth with the affection of good, 1 997. In the Lord there was a union of the human essence with the divine, but in the case of man with the Lord there is not union but conjunction, ill. 2004; and that the terms union and conjunction are now used by the author in this sense. 2021. The union of the human essence with the divine and of the divine with the human was reciprocal, ill. 2004, 2798, and cita- tions, 2803; ill. and gh, 10,067. The union of the human essence with the divine was by truths and goods, 2004. The union of the human essence of the Lord with the divine is like the union of truth with good, and the union of the divine with the human Hke that of good with truth, 2011; thus, it is the very marriage of good and truth, 2649, 2803; see below, 3211, 3952. It was truth itself that was united to good, and good itself that was united to truth in the Lord, for nothing can be predicated of him but good itself and truth itself, 2012. It is by the human essence united to the divine, thus, by the Lord, that all divine good passes through toman, 2016. The human essence united to the divine make one God, 2030 ; in other words, the Lord is God as to both, 2094. The union of the human essence with the divine was effected through the whole course of the Lord's life from infancy to the last hour, thus he was continually approaching his glorification, 2033, 2523. When the human was made divine, and the divine made human in the Lord, then the influx of the infinite or of the supreme divine could take place with man, which otherwise was impossible, ill. 2034. In the union of the human essence with the divine, the Lord had respect to the conjunction of himself with the human race, 2034; and that the human race was thus saved, 2218, 2236, 2854, 2966. The love of the Lord towards the whole human race was so great, that he desired to save all to eternity by the union of the human essence with the divine, 2222. TTie human was united to the divine by a life of the purest love, 2253. The pro- gress of the Lord in the union of the human essence with the divine was according to his instruction by continual revelations; that his recep- tion of wisdom differed from that of other men in the degree that his p p 2 I 580 LOR love was infinitely greater, 2500; the former more particularly, 3382; that he had infinite wisdom because he was in the divine love, 2572; but that he was in ignorance in infancy, and that he cultivated his rational mind and brought it out of shade into light like other men, 2523, 2632. By the union of the human with the divine and of the divine with the human in the Lord, he became omniscient not only of divine celestial and spiritual things, but also of infra-celestial or rational things, and of infra-spiritual or natural, 2569; compare 5264, 5304, 6951. The Lord adjoined the human to the divine by the truths of faith, but at the same time by the goods of love within such truths, ill. 2571. The union of the human with the divine was by the con- tinual implantation of truth in good, 2574; how ineffable the state in which it took place, 2618. The full state of the unition of the human with the divine in the Lord was when he had procured so much of the divine in the human, that is in the rational, that the divine itself could unite therewith, 2636; that it was by temptation-combats and victories gained in his own strength, and by the powers of divine wisdom and intelligence, 2636. The Lord implanted his human in the divine by his own power, and this when the divine rational was born, 2643. The order in which the unition of the divine essence with the human of the Lord took place in a series : (1.) The cause of unition, the presence of the divine in the human, 2615 — 2619. (2.) The unition reciprocal, the presence of the human in the divine, 2620—2626, ill. 2004. (3.) The human made divine from that unition, 2627—2630. (4.) The progress of such union successive and continuous while the Lord was in the world, 2631—2634. (5.) The instant of such unition when the rational was in a state that it could receive the divine, 2635 — 2637. (6.) The state of unition as to its quality, 2638—2644: — that these are the subjects treated of, and that they are followed by the separation of the maternal human, 2649. The Lord united the human to the divine by divine truth, and the divine to the human by divine good, 2665; and by this union the human itself was made divine, 2667. The human was united to the divine by temptations, 2764, 2765, 2767 ; the last of which was the passion of the cross, 2776, 2854, 2921. The unition of the human to the divine was effected by the last degree of temptation sustained, 2827, compare 2818; 2844, 2854. The human was united to the divine by continual temptations and victories, and by this union the human race was saved, and not by the passion of the cross, except as the period of such temptations, 2854. The union of the human essence with the divine and of the divine with the human was a marriage ; not so, the conjunction of rational good with truth elevated from the natural, 3211. The divine marriage is not between divine good and divine truth in the Lord's divine human, but between the divine itself and the good of the divine human, thus, between the Father and the Son, ill, 3952, 3960, The marriage of truth with good and of good with truth in the Lord is inscrutable, and if any idea of it can be shadowed forth from a knowledge of divine influx in heaven it is still like darkness compared with light itself, 5332. When the Lord united the human to the divine he first made it divine truth and afterwards divine good, 6716, 6864, 6993, 7499, 8724, 9199, 9315, and citations, 9670, 9987, 10,01 1 end. It was the divine itself in the procedure to this union which formed the external man to its own image LOR 581 and likeness, comparatively as the soul which every one derives from his father forms the body, which is derived from the mother, to its likeness, ill. 6716. When the Lord united the human to the divine he received the very fire itself of divine love into his human, and this is meant by the union of divine truth with divine good in his natural man, 6834; and that such a reception of the fire of divine love is a proof that the human is divine, 6849. The union of divine good with truth divine is treated of in the order of influx, and thence perception, application, immission, conjunction, and lastly, union by love, 8667. The unition of the human with the divine whereby the human was made divine good is meant by the Lord's glorification, ah. 10,053. By the union of the human with the divine peace was acquired in heaven because all the hells were subjugated by the Lord when he was in the world, and all the heavens reduced to order, 10,054 end; the state of peace, i7A 10,132. The union of the divine with the divine human in the Lord is the Sabbath, and the six days of labour which precede are his combats with the hells, 10,356, ill, and sh. 10,360; ill, 10,728— 10,730. The essential of the church is to think holily and continually concerning the union of the divine and the human in the Lord, and concerning his conjunction as to the divine human with heaven and thereby with the human race, 10,356, 10,360—10,362, 10,367, ill, 10,370; ill, 10,728—10,730. That there is such a union, and there- fore that the Lord's human is divine br, sh. 10,372. See Marriage. 30. The Divine, is capable of passing from its supreme seat, and becoming manifest to the sight and hearing of man by the medium of angels, but only by the quiescence of their proprium, ill. and sh. 1925. The conjunction of the divine with the human race is by the Lord, 1986. No one but the Lord is able to see Jehovah the Father, 1990. The infinite itself, which is above all the heavens and the inmost of man, can only be manifested by the divine human which pertains to the Lord alone, 1990, 2016, 6945. There could be no influx of the divine through the rational mind of man into his internal sensuals, if the Lord had not come into the world and united the human to the divine in his own person, 2034, 2776. The divine can only be in what is divine, thus in the Lord's divine human, and thereby in man; but that it appears to the rational mind as if the divine could be in the human of every one, 2520; see below, 4724. The divine in itself is utterly incomprehensible, even to angels, but it flows into the rational mind by the divine human, and is more or less perfectly received according to truths with man, HI, 2531. Man is so created that the divine things of the Lord may descend through him to the ultimates of nature, and from the ultimates of nature may ascend to the Lord; such indeed would be his state if only the Lord were acknowledged as First and Last in faith of heart, 3702. Eyes and ears cannot be predicated of the divine as of man ; when applied to Jehovah these expressions denote his providence and praevidence, 3869 end. The divine esse itself can only be received in what is divine, thus in the divine existing, which is the divine human; hence, it is only by the divine human, thus by the Lord, that the divine itself can communicate with man, 4724. The divine is good itself, that which proceeds from it is truth containing good, which proceeding is meant by the spirit of God, 5307. The divine itself is pure love, which is a fire more ardent than the solar fire of this world ; also that no 682 LOR Y.' I angel could receive it in its purity, and that its reception by the Lord is a proof that his human is divine, 6849. It is said that no one can see Jehovah, because he is pure love, and from him is pure light, to see into which would be to perish, 8946; but that the Lord is the divine itself under a human form, 9315. The divine itself cannot be rendered adequate tft human comprehension even by representatives, but only the divine in heaven, 9946, 9956. As the divine itself, thus Jehovah or the Father, cannot be comprehended in any idea, so it cannot be believed in, consequently not loved, sh, 10,067; but that he may be comprehended by the divine human, sh. 10,067; both more Ir, sh, 10,267. The divine cannot be seen the quality it is in itself, but it can be seen the quality it is in heaven by the Lord, hence the Lord is the face of Jehovah, sh, 10,579. 31. The. Divine Celestial and Divine Spiritual, The divine spiritual of the Lord was intellectual truth, which is the inmost of man by which the Lord flows into the rational, ill, 1 904 ; the difference between in- tellectual aiad rational truth, ill. 1911, 1914. The divine celestial and divine spiritual of the Lord are the same as his internal man, the divine rational the same as his interior man, 1950. The divine celestial is divine good itself; the divine spiritual, divine truth, 2616, 2622. The unition of the divine celestial with the divine spiritual in the Lord is the very marriage of good and truth from which the heavenly mar- riage is derived, and consequently conjugial love, 2618, 2649; see above (29) 3952, 3960. The divine spiritual is the same as divine truth in the Lord's divine human which is also its splendour and light, 2832. The divine spiritual, or divine truth, is not in the Lord, but from him, for the Lord is nothing but divine good ; the divine celes- tial compared with the sun, aud the divine spiritual to its proceeding light, 3969; see below, 6417. The divine celestial and spiritual are terminated in the divine natural as the ultimate of order, 4090. The difference between their termination in the Lord and in man, 5134. The divine spiritual is divine truth proceeding into heaven and into the church from the Lord's divine human, and is the same as his kingdom, 4669; and as the promised Comforter or Spirit of Truth, 4673; also as divine wisdom and intelligence, 4677. The procedure of divine truth shining in the rational or internal man, is called the divine spiritual of the rational, and when it shines in the natural man, the divine spiri- tual of the natural, 4675 ; further ill. 4980, 5 150. The divine that comes from the Lord, in the supreme sense is the divine in him, and only in the respective sense the divine from him; it is divine good from him that is called celestial, and divine truth from him that is called spiritual, 4696 ; see below, 6417. From the divine spiritual of the Lord pro- ceed divine spiritual goods which are of love and charity, and divine spiritual truths which are of faith thence, 4710. The divine celestial and divine spiritual both proceed from the Lord's divine human, and are the same as the divine good and divine truth of his love, 4735, ill. 5307. The Lord is the celestial itself and the spiritual itself, that is, good itself and truth itself understood abstractly, 51 10. The Lord in himself is nothing but divine good, but that which proceeds from his divine good and flows into heaven, is called in his celestial kingdom the divine celestial, and in his spiritual kingdom the divine spiritual, thus according to reception, 6417, 8827; see below, 9810, 10,091—10,092, LOR 583 10,098—10,099, 10,261. The spiritual [principle] in its first origin is divine truth proceeding from the divine human, and the divine human is divine good, 6685. Good divine celestial is divine good in heaven, because divide good in itself is far above heaven, 8758, "8760; other illustrations of the difference between the divine in heaven and the divine in itself above heaven, 7270, 8328, 8443. The divine celestial and divine spiritual in heaven are comparatively as the atmosphere . in the world, for they operate round about the angels and contain them in their form and potency, 94^9; into what beauty they form them, 9503. The divine spiritual is the very light of heaven, and it is from this that the Lord is called the light, 9548, 9571, and citations; 9684, and collection of seriatim passages. The divine celestial is the pro- ceeding divine truth received in the voluntary part, the divine spiritual is the divine proceeding received in the intellectual part,, 9810, ill, 981 1 — 9815; the divine proceeding ill, and sh. at large to be the spirit of truth, the holy spirit, &c., 9818. The divine spiritual corresponds with the good of charity, 10,087; and is the divine truth in the middle or second heaven, 10,091. See Spiritual. 32. The Lord, a Spiritual Celestial Man. The Lord alone was a celestial man, 197, ill. 1458. All men whatsoever are born natural, with the power of becoming either spiritual or celestial by regeneration, but the Lord was born a spiritual celestial man, 4592, 4594. The Lord was born a spiritual celestial man because the divine was in him, 4592; and to the end that he might make his human divine, 4594. By the celestial of the spiritual is meant the Lord himself, 5110. By the celestial is meant good from the divine, by the spiritual the truth of that good, thus, the truth of good from the divine human; this was the Lord when he was in the world, but when he glorified his human he transcended above it and was made divine good itself, 5307. The celestial of the spiritual is the good of truth in which the divine is; this pertained to the Lord alone, and was, in fact, the human which contained the divine before his glorification, 5331. The celestial of the spiritual is so called for want of other words or forms of thought to express it, but it is the internal of the Lord's human before he was glorified, and is the same as truth from the divine, 5417; passages cited, 5444, 5648; in other words, it is the receptacle or proximate clothing of the divine itself in the Lord. 5417, 5689. For the repre- sentation, see Tribes (Joseph, Benjamin), 33. The External and Internal Man distinguished. By the external man of the Lord is meant his human essence, by the internal his divine, 1535, 1584. The external man is occupied by many scientifics and knowledges, and by many pleasures and delights which are opposed to the internal; all such in the case of the Lord were separated, 1563, 1564, ill, 1568. There was hereditary evil with the Lord in the external man, and consequently, the false proceeding of such evil; the latter only when he imbued scientifics and knowledges, 1573. The external man cannot really be united to the internal in any but the Lord, and it was to effect this union that he came into the world, ill. \577. The external man is wholly natural, and it is united to the internal when the celestial-spiritual of the internal flows-in and adapts it as its own, 1577; the case with man relatively, 1581; both til. 1900. The Lord when a boy was often in divine vision as to the external man. 584 LOR 1 because he alone conjoined the external man to the internal, 1584, HI, 1785, 1786; see below (45). The beauty of the external man con- joined to the internal cannot be described, for such conjunction exists with none but the Lord, of whose external man the three heavens are images, 1590; as to the latter, compare 1733. The Lord's external man in boyhood was occupied with apparent goods and truths, and evils and falses served with them until they became manifest, and then tempta- tion-combats commenced, 1652, 1655. The Lord's interior man was conjoined to the external by truths only, and to the internal by goods; the influx of the internal into the external by the medium of the interior, ilL 1707 ; and that the Lord's internal man together with the celestial interior was Jehovah, 1707, 1725, 1732. The internal man of the Lord was Jehovah himself, and is meant by the Father; the external by the Son, 1733, 1793, 1815, 1893. The internal man was distinguished as God from the external and the interior before their full conjunction was effected, 1733; afterwards the Lord was altoge- ther Jehovah, 1729. The Lord's external man was at first a recipient of life, but when the organical vessels of the human essence had been purified by the rejection of evil, the external also was made life itself, 1603. The Lord's internal man, or Jehovah, was nothing but pure love, thus the purest mercy towards the human race, 1735, 2063. The internal man is of the Lord, yea, is the Lord himself in all men, and when their external is quiescent, the angels know no other than that they are the Lord; in the case of the Lord, however, the conjunction is full and eternal so that the human essence itself is also Jehovah, 1 745, ill. and sh. 1925, ill. 1999; that the conjunction is eternal, 2084. When the Lord was in the world, his internal man, meaning whatso- ever he derived from the father, was Jehovah himself, and his external man consisted of all that he derived from the mother; the case with man in general, ill. 1815, 2005. The internal man of the Lord, which is Jehovah, is called man because Jehovah is the only man; thus, that the esse itself, from which man derives all that is human, is divine, ill. 1894. Being conceived from Jehovah, the Lord could have no other internal man, that is, no other soul, than Jehovah, and this, because the divine essence cannot be divided like the soul of a man when he conceives offspring, 1921, 1999, 2018. The internal man of the Lord is the same as the divine celestial and divine spiritual ; the interior the same as the divine rational; and the exterior the same as the divine natural, 1950. The Lord spake with Jehovah as with him- self because his internal man was Jehovah, thus, life itself; but that the internal in other men is the first form recipient of life, and thus the dwelling-place of the Lord with them, ill. 1999. 34. The Interior Man is the middle part by which the internal or divine communicates with the external or human ; the quality of the influx hereby, ill. 1707, 1864 end, 1940. The Lord's interior man was divine from nativity, and was conjoined to the internal by its goods, but to the external by its truths only ; in this respect the Lord was unlike all other men, ill. 1707. The Lord made his interior man divine also as to truths by temptation combats, 1707 ; the whole further ill. 1725, 1732; and that such truths were made divine because they were made good, 1940. The Lord conjoined the interior man with the divine more and more eflTectually until it became one with Jehovah, . LOR 585 1865. By the interior in the Lord is meant the thought made interior by union with the internal man or Jehovah, br. ill. 1926, ill. 1953 — 1955. The interior thought of the Lord was from the affection of intellectual truth, and this affection was from divine good itself ; that such thought is impossible to men in general, 1 935 ; the latter also, 1914. Interior or divine truth is predicated of the interior man ad- joined to good, and the rational man is called its subject, 1940. The interior man of the Lord is the same as the divine rational ; the in- ternal man, the same as the divine celestial and divine spiritual, 1940. The interior man of the Lord was far above the rational, in celestial light, because conjoined to the internal, ill. 1953 — 1955, 1957. The interior man is so called from divine truth, or from the existere of divine good in the rational, 3194. For the representation of the in- terior man, see Abraham, while called Abram, (in supplement). 35. The Rational Man of the Lord, Internal and External. The rational man is the medium between the internal and external, 1889, ill. 1944. The rational man in the Lord was conceived and born from the influx of the internal man into the external, 1889. The first rational was conceived from the influx of the internal man into the affec- tion of sciences in the external, 1890, 1891, 1920, 1960. The rational was first conceived with the Lord the same as vnth other men, namely, by the scientifics and knowledges of the external man, but it was after- wards made divine in common with the whole human by his own power, 1893. The rational is not born from sciences and knowledges, but from the life or affection of sciences and knowledges, 1891, ill. 1895, iU. 1900 ; passages cited seriatim, 3030 end. The rational is conceived from the internal man as a father, and is born from the external as a mother, 1895, 1900—1902, 1921 ; that by the internal in this case is to be understood the divine celestial, 2652, 2653 and citations. The rational of the Lord was conceived and born as with men in general, but with this difference, that his inmost principle of life was divine, and that he overcame in every temptation for the sake of the human race, 1902. The rational first conceived was such as to despise intel- lectual truth ; and that this in the Lord's case was from appearances but not from fallacies, 1911. As the rational was made divine the clouds of appearances were dispersed and intellectual truths shone in their light, 1911. The Lord was in the highest degree solicitous that the rational should be pure, and this, from the affection of intellectual truth, ill. 1914. The Lord had power over the rational from its first conception, and he subjugated it by his own power, 1920, 1921. The rational first conceived was imbued with evil because it was from the internal man as a father and from the exterior as a mother, and what- ever is from the exterior has hereditary evil with it, 1921. The power which the Lord had over the rational, and also over the natural man, was that of intellectual truth, 1921 ; how he commanded therein, 2541 — 2543. The Lord perceived that the rational first conceived would not be in the order of heaven, consequently not receptive of celestial love, 1928. The Lord perceived that the rational first conceived was in ap- pearances, and that such appearances were not to be confided in, but divine truths themselves, 1936. All truth in the Lord's rational was made good, thus divine ; and this, as the rational man was brought under the power of the interior man, thus, as it submitted to interior I I- It 586 LOR or divine truth, 1940 ; that truth without good does not make the ra- tional man, 1949, 1950 ; and that the interior man of the Lord is the same as the divine rational, 1950. The rational man was made divme as hereditary evil derived from the mother was expelled, thus, as the life of divine good took the place of the life of the affection of sciences therein, 1950. The rational man without the life of celestial good is aggressive and contrary, but with celestial good it is yielding and mer- ciful, and yet conquers all, because it is divine, 1950. The rational cannot think concerning itself, or explore its quality ; that such thought in the Lord was from his interior man conjoined to the internal, 1953. The rational can never be conceived and born without scientifics and knowledges, but these render it morose and pugnacious without use be in them, 1964; the state of the Lord when the rational was first con- ceived and born with him, 1903 ; and when it was united to the divine, 1988, 2074, 2193, 2213, 2216, 2618, particularly 2636. The divine rational in the Lord was born from the divine marriage of good with truth, ilL 2063, ill. 2093. The rational was first conceived from the divine conjoined to the human by influx into the affection of sciences, and this rational, together with the whole human, including the body itself, was made divine, 2083. The rational was united to the divine by truth conjoined to good, 2095. The divine was united to the rational when to the human essence, because the human begins in the inmost of the rational, 2106, 2194, 2625, 3161 ; and that then all who were made rational from truth were conjoined to the Lord, 2105, 2112. The human of the Lord, as with all other men, began in the inmost of the rational, and above that was Jehovah himself; hence, that the human was made divine, beginning from the inmost of the rational, 2194, 2827, 3704. Rational truth merely human was separate from the Lord when he was in divine perception, when he was conjoined to the divine, ill, 2196, 2203. Rational good to which rational truth was adjoined was also purified of all that is worldly when the Lord made the rational divine, 2204. The rational merely human was put off and the divine rational put on when the conjunction of the divine with the human occurred, 2213; see below (43), 2193. The rational was not consulted by the Lord when he instructed himself in the doctrinals of charity and faith, but he first thought concerning the rational that it should be consulted, 2497, 2511, ill. 2519—2520, 2551, 2553, 2588. The existence of the rational mind as to truth is from the influx of divine good into the affection of sciences, but as to good from the influx of divine good into that truth, 2524 ; hence that truth was insinuated into the Lord by the maternal human, but good solely from the divine, 2529. It was provided that truth should not flow-in with man, but that he should be made rational by the external way on account of hereditary evil ; that the rational of the Lord was also formed according to this order, 2558. The rational of the Lord was made divine by continual temptations and victories gained in his own strength, and by continual revelations from his divine, passages cited 2625, 3281, The rational was made divine when it was such that it could receive the divine, when the state was completed for the human to be put off, 2620, 2624, 2625. The divine rational was from the unition of the divine spiritual with the divine celestial of the Lord, which is the mar- riage itself of good and truth, 2618, 2621—2625; how it is expressed LOR 587 m the Word that it really should be and exist, 2625, ill. 3030, see below, 3141. The rational was made receptive of the divine when hereditary evil derived from the mother was expelled, and then the divine rational was born by the internal way from the divine itself, thus, the rational was made divine successively, ill. 2632, ill. 2636- see below, 3013, &c. The rational merely human was such that it could not agree with the divine rational, and the Lord's perception of their disagreement was from the divine spiritual, 2651, 2652, ill. 2654; hence that the prior rational was separated or exterminated, 2654, ill. 2657. In the case of man, when he becomes regenerate, the first ra- tional IS only separated, but with the Lord it was utterly exterminated because the divine and the merely human cannot be together, 2657 end. The rational merely human could have no common life with the divine either as to truth or good, because the divine is life itself, and the merely human is only an organ of life, ill. 2658; the state of the Lord when he thought of separating it, 2659 and sequel ; and that its sepa- ration was necessary to the salvation of the human race, 2664 ; stated in series, 2667, 2671 . The divine rational is called the divine human because Uie human begins in the inmost of the rational, 2666; see above 2106. The Lord made his human divine, consequently the rational in which the human begins, by temptations, whereby he chastised and expelled all that was merely human, 2767. The human rational and also the natural man were so prepared as to serve the divine rational when the Lord underwent temptations, 2782, 2786, 2811; see below 2856. The human rational could be adjoined to the divine rational, and also more or less separated, according to the states which the Lord assumed, 2/95. The rational divine could not undergo temptations as to good, but as to truth, ill. 2813; and that such truth, susceptible of tempta- tion, is properly called truth divine, 2814. When the Lord under- went the most grievous temptations he separated from himself the ra- tional merely human, and after temptations again conjoined himself with it, 2856 and citations ; that the rational was always elevated after temptations as in man, 2857. The conjunction of divine truth with divme good, making the divine rational, was after all things had been disposed into order in the human essence, so that the divine could flow-in by the internal way, and truths could be elevated from the scientifics, knowledges, and doctrinals of the external, 3013, 3017. Be- fore the elevation of divine truth to be conjoined with good in the divine rational could take place, it was provided that no discordant affection should intervene, and this by the influx of the internal man into the external, and arrangement therein, 3019, 3024 compared 3031—3033 ; whence such discordant affections might be apprehended, 3025. The conjunction of truth with good in the rational man is by the affection of truth, and such affection could only come by the celestial and spiritual things of love which the Lord acquired to himself by his own power, and not by the maternal human, 3024—3027, ill. 3033. The good of the rational formed by the internal way is the very ground itself into which truth is inseminated by the external, 3030. The Lord willed to make his rational divine, as to good by influx from his own divine by the internal way ; as to truth, by influx by the external way ; a few passages cited seriatim, 3030. The conjunction of truth with good m the divine rational of the Lord was preceded by initiation, and ini- 588 LOR LOR 589 I tiation was by the divine principles separated or taken away from the external human, 3048, 3049; that the Lord saw and explored all things from his own wisdom and intelligence previous to initiation, 31 16, 3125; initiation i7/., 3131, 3132, 3138. The divine good, so called, of the Lord*s divine rational was divine good conjoined with divine truth ; both together being called good in the rational man, to which truth from the natural was to be conjoined, 3141; see below 3194. This conjunction, whereby the ratiomd was made divine both as to good and as to truth was effected by the Lord himself, by the ordinary way in which the light of the world is illustrated by the light of heaven in man, 3138, 3141, 3161. Truth could only be elevated from the natural to good in the rational, by divine good and divine truth both natural, 3192. The divine human went forth from divine good and was born of divine truth, as divine good rational ; and to this was con- joined divine truth from the human, 3194, 3209. Truth from the natural was not divine before it was conjoined with good in the rationi^l, to which end it was elevated into the sanctuary of truth in the Lord's divine human, 3209 — 3210; that the divine human was represented by the holy of holies in the tabernacle and in the temple, and its quality by the things therein, 3210. Between the good of the Lord's rational and truth elevated from the natural and made divine, there is not a marriage but a covenant resembling the conjugial, but that the union of the divine essence with the human and of the union with the divine is a marriage, 3211, ill. 3952; compare 5332. The human is pro- perly constituted by the rational and the natural together, but it was according to order that the rational should be made divine before the natural, 3245. The divine rational is from the divine itself, but the divine natural from the divine rational, 3279. 36. The Divine Rational of the Lord : see above (35), particularly 1940, 1950, 2063, 2106, 2194, 2213, 2625, 2620, 2618, 2632, 2666, 2813, 3013, 3194, and remaining passages. For the represen- tation of the human rational first conceived, see Ishmael. For the representation of the divine rational, see Isaac. For the representa- tion of the divine in the rational, see Melchizedek. 37. The Divine Natural of the Lord could not exist till the rational was made divine, because it is from the divine good of the rational pro- ceeding by its divine truth, 3279, 3283, compare 3671. The divine natural is from the divine good of the rational, as a father, and from divine truth there as a mother, 3286, ill. 3703. The divine good of the rational is in closer conjunction with good in the natural than with truth; and the divine truth of the rational is in closer conjunction with truth in the natural than with good; their influx, br. ill. 3314. Good cannot be conjoined with truth in the natural man without temptations; wherefore the Lord by temptations made all things divine in himself, even the vessels recipient of truth, 3318; and also the corporeal part, 3490. The glorification of the natural man of the Lord was by know- ledges of good and truth, recipient of good and truth flowing in from the rational, 3508. The Lord, from the divine good of the divine ra- tional, willed to make the natural divine by the medium of its good; but from the divine truth of the divine rational, he willed to make it divine by the medium of its truth, ill. 3509. The natural domestic good which the Lord had from the mother was such that it could serve for a medium to make the natural divine, but when it had thus served It was rejected, ill, 3518; see below, 4065, 4234. The Lord began to make his natural divine, as to truth, from the ultimate of order, that thus he might dispose the intermediates, and conjoin all to the first or divme itself, 3657, ill. 3986; how done by truths corresponding with those of the rational, 3660, particularly 3665, 3679, 3993; and by temptations, 3667, 3927, 4 182. The beginning of the existence of the divine natural is in the good of truth, 3674; br, ex. 3676, ill. S6S8. bee Good (U); and see below, 3983. The rational and the natural are the same as the internal and external man, and these together with the body (which serves the natural as a means of living in the world, and thereby the rational, and by the rational the divine), make the whole human, 3737; see below, 4108. The Lord came into the world in order to make the whole human divine in himself, insomuch that the divine natural is also Jehovah; passages cited, 3737; that the unition of the Lord with Jehovah is not such as exists between two, but that it is a real unition into one, 3737. The Lord made his natural divine accord- ^%^^ °mu^ ^^ * gradual ascent from external truth to internal good, 3/61. The power which the natural had from the divine was received in the good of truth, 3983, ill. 3986. See Good (1 1). The Lord made his natural divme by his own power, but still according to order, by ac- Snlfi^^^rSu^^"?^^^^ S°°^^ ^^^ ^'■"*^^» ^^25; and the passages cited, 3975. The divme goods and truths which the Lord acquired to him- self, were altogether separated from goods and truths which derived anything from the human, 4026, 4063; see below (46). The good which the Lord acquired in the natural man was by mediums, thus he made the human divine by mediums according to order, but he did not take anything from them, 4065 ; see below, 4234. The Lord also, had societies of angels attendant upon him, because he willed to do all according to order, yet he took nothing from them but only from the divine, til. 4075 ; as to such societies with man, 4067, 4073. The Lord made the natural divine by conjunction with the good of the rational ; also, that the conjunction of the rational and the natural makes the human, 4108. In the procedure to this conjunction the truth of the natural man was first conjoined to middle or collateral good, and afterwards to divine good, 4234. As the implantation of truth m good proceeded there was an influx of the divine into the natural, and hence illustration therein, 4235 ; and after illustration, communication, 4239. The state of the Lord when his natural man was thus illustrated is treated of, but it cannot be described because the state of the divine when the Lord made the human divine does not fall into the apprehension of any one, not even of the angels, except by appearances and representatives of the regeneration of man, 4237, 5332. The good of the Lord's divine natural was good continually flowing-in, and appropriating to itself corresponding truths, 4247 ; which appropriation could not take place without temptations, 4248, 4249, 4256, 4274, 4287, and passages cited seriatim. The state of the reception of good is first treated of as a state of preparation and disposition for its reception, 4251—4253, 4269 ; and successively as a stote of insinuation, 4270, 4271, 4336; see below, 4543. The influx of divine good proceeding to conjunction is by the internal man, and the truth with which it is conjoined is insinuated by the external, 4350, 590 LOR 4352, 4353 ; that the acknowledgment and conjunction of truth is like that of a wife by her husband, 4358 ; and that truth is inspired with affection from good, 4373. The progress of the Lord in making the natural divine was from trath to the good of truth, and at length to good, thus his state was various, ill. 4538. Disposition is from good, because when good begins to act on the natural mind, it disposes the truths which are there into order, 4543 ; and so purifies and makes them holy, 4544. The Lord made his natural man holy before he made it divine, the difference between which is as that between the esse and the existing, or the divine itself and what is from the divine, 4559. The disposition and arrangement of truths from good in the Lord's natural being effected, and hereditary evil from the mother being rejected, he could progress towards interiors, ill, 4563, 4564, 4570 end. The conjunction of good and truth was to take place in the interiors of the natural, 4567. The Lord advanced according to order from externals to interiors, thus from truth which is in the ultimate of order to good which is in the interior, and from interior or spiritual good to celestial, 4582, ill. 4585. When the order to interior good was completed the divine natural existed, and the progression of the divine /rom the divine natural commenced, 4585, 4583 compared ; first, to the spiritual of the celestial, which is the out-birth of spiritual truth from celestial good, ill, 4592 ; see above (32). The progression now treated of more and more towards interiors is by affections, 4598. The end of this progress is the conjunction of goods and truths when in their order with the rational or intellectual, 4601 end ; in which order the natural serves the rational for a receptacle, 4603. The divine rational was thus received into the divine natural ; accordingly, that it put on a new life in the midst of its goods and truths, 4618 — 4621 ; that henceforth the divine natural lived a corresponding life under the divine good of the rational, 4666 ; and that the natural [principle] of the Lord is divine truth from divine good, 6377; see below (41), 5072, 5316, 5345, 6716, 6834, 6849; (53) particularly 10,047, 10,060. For the representation of the divine natural, see Esau, Jacob. 38. Divine Good natural to the Lord from nativity ; this, and its order treated of, 4639. This good was the inmost of his life, his soul, because he was conceived from Jehovah; and it was invested exteriorly with the evil [nature] which he took from the mother, 4641. The Lord procured good to himself by his own power, by overcoming the evil derived from the mother, and this good, or the human made new, he conjoined with divine good that was his from nativity, 4641. The Lord's divine good does not fall under the view of the human under- standing, least of all as to its derivations, but can only flow into a general idea even with the angels, 4642, 4643. The derivations of the divine good into which the Lord was born, are predicated of its exist- ence in the human when it was made divine, 4644 ; that they extend to the sensual, 4646; and that the truths of this good existed, a priori, in the divine human, 4650. For the representation, see Esau. 39. The Proprium of the Lord, called his flesh, is divine good, ill, and sh. 3813. The proprium of the Lord from conception was divine ; the proprium meant by his flesh and blood is the divine in the human acquired by his own power, 4176, 4735 ; and that this is the very prin- ciple of hohness, 10,222,10,267, 10,268, 10,276.

No one but the Lord has arisen with the body which he had in the world, and this because the Lord glorified the very body itself, 5078 end ; the case of man ill. 5079. When the Lord made the exterior natural divine, the sensuals subject to the intellectual part were retained, and those subject to the voluntary part were re- fected 5157. The sensuals subject to the intellectual part are scienti- fics which can be brought to accord with intellectual truths ; those sub- iect to the voluntary part are delights which cannot be made to accord, 5157; see also 5077, 5078, 5081, 5113-5120, 5144-5149. In the Lord, the voluntary [principle] from conception was divine, being divine good itself, but the voluntary [principle] by nativity from the mother was evil ; the latter therefore was rejected, and in its place a new one was procured by the intellectual, thus from divme good by divine truth, from the Lord's own power, 5157 end; see also 6025. The subject treated of to this point is the subjection of the exterior natural, in order to serve as a plane in which interior truths and goods may be represented, 5072, 5168; that it treats also of the temptations by which corporeal things were reduced to such correspondence, 5072, 5086, 5134, 5135, 5138; and afterwards of the elevation of the celes- tial spiritual from the bondage of the external man to dominion over it, 5169, 5170, 5191, 5192. It was by the celestial spiritual that the Lord disposed his natural and his sensual man into order and made it divine, 5316. Under the order and dominion of the celestial spiritual mauj the Lord alone multiplied truth indefinitely in the external, 5345, 5346. The internal of the Lord's human was united with the external when he made it divine, 5469. The divine internal, acting as the soul from the father in man, formed the external to its own likeness when the Lord made the human divine, ill. 6716. The very fire of divine love, in which no angel could live, was received into the external human when it was made divine, 6834, 6849, 6872; but that it was not made divine good until after the resurrection, 6993. The final se- paration and casting out of evil by good, thus the rejection of all that pertained to the human from the mother is represented by the flesh, and the skin, &c., of the sin-oifering carried out of the camp and burnt, 9670, compare 10,040; and that the Lord was still a man even as to the flesh and bones, 10,825, cited below (42, 7^), 42. The Lord called Jehovah-Man, The Lord from eternity was Jehovah or the Father in human form, but not yet in the flesh, because the angels under whose forms he appeared have not flesh, 9315. Be- cause Jehovah or the Father willed to put on the whole human in order to save the human race, therefore he also assumed the flesh, 9315. "When the Lord said after his resurrection, " A spirit hath not flesh and bones as ye see me have," he meant to teach his disciples that he was no longer Jehovah under the form of an angel, but Jehovah-Man, 9315, ill, 10,045, ill. 10,126. That he was still a man indeed even as to the flesh and bone after his resurrection, 10,825, cited below (76); but that he called divine good his flesh and divine truth his blood, 10,033 end, 10,519—10,522; and that such flesh or divine good is the proprium of the Lord, 10,035. 43. The Perception and Thought of the Lord, See above (22), 1440. The first perception of the Lord was in boyhood, and was not LOR 693 yet interior or rational ; but that Jehovah then appeared to him, 1440-- 1443, 2137, 2144; and that Jehovah is always present in celestial love, but that his presence is not perceived in the external man before Its conjunction with the internal, ill. 1616. The first state of percep- tion with the Lord was when he implanted scientifics in celestial thinc^s^- the second or more interior when he implanted knowledges, 1616: the same cited, 2000; see below, 2144. The Lord had perception of the origin and quality of all that existed in him ; thus when evils and falses occupied the external man, he knew by what spirits they were excited and m what manner, &c., 1701. The perception of the Lord first appeared to him as revelation, and this in states of temptation and in boyhood, when the internal was not one with the external; 1785. The U perception of the Lord was the sensation and perceptive cognition of Iff all that was done m heaven, and it consisted in his continual commu- - JV<^a^ion and internal discourse with Jehovah, 1791. The perception of the Lord was most perfect, because from his internal manf which was Jehovah, 1815. The perception of the Lord before the rational man was conceived was from truth adjoined to good, br. ill, 1898; and that this is intellectual truth, 1904. The Lord perceived and saw in what contempt the rational man, when first conceived, held intellectual truth, 1911; tlL 1914 1928. The perception of the Lord was immediately trom Jehovah, thus from divine good, but his thought was from intel- Jectual truth and its afi^ection ; that his divine perception, when in the ZoA-o'^^^^""^! f" ".''Sehc intelligence, 1919, 1921; see below, :^ \:V ' ^J"^}^'^}^ ^>s perception was from the divine itself, his thought from the intellectual itself, 2552. The perception of the Lord embraced the order of all things in the universe as well in heaven as in the world, but when he had made the human divine he was above that ^//T-f !n °' • ^""^^ ^^ ""^^ *^°^® ^^^ o^^i^'' of lieaven and the worid, til. 1919; cited 1991. The Lord was in two states of perception an- swering to his state of humiliation and his state of glorification, 2098. J he perception of the Lord when the divine was manifested to him in the human had respect to their reciprocal union, and to the conjunction 9171 S^T*" '■^^^ "^^^^ ^'"^ *^ * consequence, 2136—2141 ; see below, ^Ui, 1 he perception of the Lord was more and more interior in the tlegree that he approached to union with Jehovah ; first, it partook of 9o!io "'rJ.u T f'''^"^'^''^ ^""^ ^^^^ ^»^^°"^1 ^'•"tJ^s, 2144; ill. 2145, ^^4y. 1 he Lord always thought from divine perception, because he alone was a divme and celestial man, 2144 ; ill. 2171. The Lord had a perception of the trine in his own person when Jehovah appeared to him, 2149—2156 ; see below, 2218, 2245. The Lord's perception was divine and human reciprocally, for he so prepared himself that the divme was lowered nearer to his intellectual state, and his human was elevated nearer to the divine, 2137,2161-2163, 2165, and following passages, especially 2166, 2186. The preparation of the Lord in this case was that of his rational man to receive perception from the divine, ^185. Ihe Lord came into divine perception at the instant of the conjunction ot the human with the divine, and in this case rational truth merely human was separate from him, 2193, 2195, 2196, 2203; that he perceived how far the infirm human afi^ected the rational, 2207. ♦ ir k ^ he was in the human, first perceived how the divine itselt, the divine human, and the holy proceeding should be united in Q Q 594 LOR him; next, how his rational man should be made divine ; and lastly, the state of the human race to be saved hereby, 2171, 2218; that in the first instant, he shrunk from the perception and thought of their state, 2222; see below, 2673. The thought of the Lord (in this state) was from the human conjoined with the divine, but his perception was from the divine — understood as the divine itself, the divine human, and the holy proceeding, 2245 ; that it was from the human adjoined only, 2247; that as it proceeded the human was adjoined more nearly, 2249; and by what means, 2571. The perception of the Lord in the human state was not continued, 2287. The perception of the Lord was infi- nitely beyond that of all men and angels, because his love was infinitely greater, and the influx of wisdom is into love, 2500. The perception of the Lord concerning the doctrine of faith was from the influx of the divine into the intellectual faculty; thus, his perception was in the hu- man although it was from the divine; and first, in the human which he put off, 2513, 2514. The celestial think from perception, because they are principled in love, and the spiritual from conscience ; but the thought of the Lord transcends all human understanding, because it was immediately from the divine, 2515. The thoughts of the Lord, when in the maternal human, were under the direction of his love for the human race, ilL 2520. The perceptions and thoughts of the Lord, being from the divine, were foreseen and expressed in the internal sense of the Word; the reason, 2523, further iV/. 2540, 2551, 2574. The Lord alone had perception from spiritual truth, 2574. The perception of the Lord, when the rational was made divine, was from the divine celestial, and his thought from the divine celestial by the divine spiritual, hr. ill. 2619; and that the divine rational was from the unition of the divine celestial with the divine spiritual, 2621. The Lord was in clear perception from the divine concerning the state of his spiritual kingdom both in its beginning and progress, and the quality they should at length become, 2673. The Lord had perception from divine truth, and from such perception he thought and reflected, 2769, 2770. The perception of the Lord, after undergoing temptations, was in the divine good of the rational or divine human, 2822. The Lord thought from the divine as from himself, and acquired all intelligence and wisdom to himself by continual revelations from the divine, 3382 ; but that he was in appearances of truth when he was in the infirm human, 3405, 3416 — 3417. Jehovah was in the Lord, but so long as the Lord was in the human not yet glorified, his perception was from the divine, sig- nified by Jehovah's appearing to Abraham, 3438 ; see above, 25 13. The Lord had perception from the divine truth of the rational as well as from divine good, thus, from the intellectual part and also from the voluntary part; that the former is really from the voluntary flowing into the intellectual, 3619. The Lord came into interior natural per- ception from the divine vnthin him after the truths of the natural man had been disposed into order by good, and the hereditary evil which he derived from the mother had been rejected, 4567; compared with 4543, 4563. The perception of the Lord was from the divine because he was conceived of Jehovah, but it was according to reception by the human because the human was made divine successively, 4571. The Lord had perception in his natural man from the celestial internal, which was the divine in him, 5121, 5251, 5262, 5264, 5315, 5361.

The Lord fought against hereditary evil from the mother, but he had no actual evil, 1444, 1573. The temptations of the Lord commenced in boyhood when he fought against evils and falses from apparent goods and truths, 1052. The evils and falses against which the Lord fought first appeared to him in boyhood, and he then first warred against them and overcame them, 1653, 1654, 1661. The beginning of temptation-combats was in the Lord's boy- hood and early youth, when he was imbued with sciences and know- ledges, ilL 1661. The Lord was introduced into most grievous temp- tations in early boyhood, and the goods and truths from which he fought against them* were of the external man, consequently they were imbued with hereditary (infirmities) from the mother, 1661. The temptation-combats and victories gained by the Lord were sustained and conquered in his own strength, 1661, 1692, 1707; by the human left to itself, 2025. The apparent goods and truths from vvhich the Lord fought in boyhood were gradually purified and made divine as the evil and false were overcome, 1661, 1698. The temptations which the Lord endured were most grievous, beyond those of all other men, 1663, 1668, 1787. The grievous temptations sustained by the Lord are described in general by his being in the desert with beasts, by which the worst of the infernal crew are designated, 1663 ; see below, 9937. Temptations are acute in the degree that man is principled in conscience and perception, hence, how direful were the temptations sustained by the Lord, 1668. The Lord was tempted in early boyhood by the most direful persuasions of the false infused by the Nephilim (or giants) who lived before the flood, 1673, further ill, 7686. Unless the Lord had fought against and overcome such persuasions no man could have been saved, and this, because the Lord's government of man is by the me- dium of spirits, 1673. The evils and falses against which the Lord fought were infernal spirits who were in evils and falses, and who con- tinually infested the human race, ilL 1680. The Lord never com- menced a combat with any hell, but the hells assaulted him ; as the angels with man also defend him from evil spirits without assailing them, 1 683 ; but that he put on the human in order that he might enter into combat with the hells, 2523; see below 2816. The temptations of the Lord consisted in this, that from love towards the whole human race he fought against the loves of self and the world, with which the hells were replete, 1690, 1691, 1778, 1789, 1812, 1813, 1820. All temptation is against some love, and is according to its quality and degree ; hence the direful temptations sustained by the Lord, whose life was love itself, 1690, 1737, 1820. The Lord was assailed by the whole power of hell from his first boyhood to the last hour of his life in the world, but he continually combated, subjugated, and bound the infernals, 1690. By the temptations which the Lord endured the spiritual interior was made divine, and also the external man, 1 707, 1708. So long as he was in a state of temptation, the Lord spake with Jehovah as with another, but so far as his human essence was united to the divine he spake with Jehovah as with himself; thus, that Jehovah appeared to the Lord as absent in temptations, 1745, 1815, 1819, 1999; but else as in the human itself, 7058. When the Lord was in temp- tations, angels also attended and fought with him against evils, but they derived all their power from him, 1752 ; see below, 4287, 4295. LOR 597 lifo ne^rPHH^?

When temptations are predicated of the Lord, the infirm human received from the mother is to be understood because the divine human could not be tempted, much less the divine itself, ill. and passages cited, 7193. 598 LOR The good of merit pertains to the Lord alone, because from pure divine loTe he underwent the most grievous temptations as a means of saving the human race ; passages cited, 9528. Only the forty days' temptatiou in the desert is mentioned, because forty signifies and involves tempta- tions to the full, thus the temptations of many years, 9937. The time and state when the Lord was in combat is signified by the six days* labour and the union of the divine and human by the Sabbath ; passages cited, 10,360. The Lord's temptations are described in the whole of Isaiah Ixiii., 9937 ; and by the combats of Abraham and the kings of the plain, 1651, 1667, 1671, 1685, 1689, 1701, 1707—1718. See King (p. 469), Abraham (in supplement) , Lot, Sodom. 48. The Passion of the Cross, was the last or full period of temptation by which the Lord united the human to the divine and subdued the hells, 2776, 2854, 2921. Temptations are natural and spiritual, some- times both combined, and such was the last temptation of the Lord in Gethsemane and upon the cross ; that it was also the most cruel of all, 8164, 8179 end. The unition of the human with the divine was ple- narily accomplished by the passion of the cross, 10,053. The last combat and victory of the Lord was upon the cross, wherefore he then fully glorified his human and fully subjugated the hells, ill. and sh. 10,655. Man's salvation is altogether owing to this, that the Lord fully subjugated the hells and fully glorified his human by the passion of the cross ; hence, that it was not to reconcile the Father, and to do other things which are commonly believed, but which involve contra- dictions, 10,659. All things done to the Lord when he was crucified represented the state of the church at that time, in particular that the Word was in such aspect and so treated among the Jews, 9144; see below (76). See Expiation, Imputation, Evil (5), Sacrifice. 49. The Lord bearing our sins, means that he fought with the hells and reduced all things into order when he was in the world, and that he does so to eternity, ill. and sh. 9937. The Lord is said to bear our sins because he alone fights against evils and falses in man, and also removes them from those who are in good ; this, because he made the human divine, ill. and sh. 9937 and citations. 50. The Lord's sorrow, when he foresaw the end of charity and faith in the church, 2910 ; seriatim passages concerning the decline of the church, 2913. The grief of the Lord when any state of the human which he assumed was changed or glorified was from his love for the whole human race, and his unwillingness that any should be separated, 2250, 2660, 2664 compared. See above (47) particularly, 1444, 1663, 1690, 4287, 4295; and (43) 2222: see also concerning the terror of great darkness falling upon Abram, which denotes the horror of those who are in celestial love at the sight of vastation, 1839 ; and the la- mentation of David over Saul and over Absalom, 4763, 10,540; see also Desolation, Despair, Terror. As to the Lord's agony and bloody sweat in the night of Gethsemane, 1787, 8164, cited below (76). 5 1 . The Lord's state of Humiliation was his state in the external when the internal acted remotely in it, thus in boyhood and in tempta- tions, when he spake with Jehovah as with another, 1785. Jehovah was manifested to the Lord even in his state of humiliation, but as one distinct from himself and yet in him, 1990, 1999. In his state of humiliation the Lord interceded for the human race, but in his state of LOR 599 glorification nothing but mercy can be predicated of him, 2250, ill. 2253. When in the human, in a state of humiliation, the Lord is called a servant, 2159, 6984, compare 3441, 8241. In his state of humiliation the Lord was in the human derived from the mother, in his state of glorification he was in the divine, 2265, 2288. The human of the Lord was in humiliation when the divine was present to it, 2279. The Lord was in humiliation when in the human from the mother be- cause of its hereditary evil, and because the human cannot approach the divme without humiliation, 6S66. See Humiliation. 52. The LortTs hereditary state. In the case of man, the heredi- tary nature derived from the father remains to eternity, that from the mother is a somewhat corporeal which is dispersed when he is regene- rated, 1414, 1444. The hereditary [principle] which the Lord de- rived from the father was divine, that from the mother was the infirm human, or evil, 1414, 1444. The Lord derived hereditary evil from the mother, which occasioned him most grievous temptations, because he was born as another man, but he had no actual evil, 1444, 3036 The hereditary evil which the Lord derived from the mother occupied the external man only, 1444, 1573, ill. 3025. Hereditary evil insin- uated itself into the rational man, because the rational is first conceived from the internal as a father and from the external as a mother, 1921. The Lord by temptations put oflT all the hereditary or infirm human that he derived from the mother so that he was no longer her son, 2159 2574, 2649, 3036. The Lord continually purified his rational by ex- pelling the evil and the false which he had hereditarily from the mother, briefly ill. and passages cited, 3036. The Lord put away for ever the hereditary evil which he derived from the mother, when the holy dis- position and arrangement of truths in his natural man was effected pre- vious to Its glorification, 4563, 4564, 4593; that the natural was made holy before it was made divine, 4559. For the representation of hereditary evil see concerning Deborah in Rebecca ; and see above (25), Evil (2). 53. The Lord's Glorification, was the union of the external man with themternal, whereby it became hfe itself, 1603. The Lord was so far in the state of glorification as he put off the human which he took hereditarily from the mother, and put on the divine, 1999, 2033, 21 12. The whole life of the Lord was a continual ascent to the glorification of the human essence, 2033. By the Lord's glorification is meant his union with the Father, which was for the sake of his conjunction with the human race, ill. and sh. 2034. To glorify is to make divine, and the Lord's glorification was progressive, 2632. The glorification of the Lord is the union of his human essence with the divine, 2765, 2826. It was by love divine that the Lord united the human essence to the divine, and the divine to the human, or what is the same, glo- rified himself, 2826. The rational man of the Lord was glorified when it was made divine both as to good and as to truth, 3212. The Lord was not regenerated like man but he was made really divine by veri- most divine love, and this is meant by his glorification, 3212, 3318 end, 10,052. The divine love itself made the human of the Lord divine as celestial love makes man new ; in either case, it is as the soul which forms the body to an image of itself, so that it acts and sensates as the soul wills and thinks ; it is also as the end in respect to the cause 600 LOR and the cause in respect to the effect, 4/27; further ill. 4/3"), 6716; see below, 10,044, 10,125. The Lord was glorified when he made the human itself divine good, 5307 ; but that he made himself divine truth previously, 6753, 6864; passages cited 9199. When the Lord was glorified he was no longer the son of Mary, because he was glo- rified by divine love, which has nothing in common with forms merely human, ill. 6872; that he really received the fire of divine love into the human, 6834, 6849; and with what difficulty it is believed that divine love in the human could effect its glorification, 6945, 8878. The Lord was made divine truth itself while he was in the world, but after his resurrection he was made divine good, 6993, 8127, 8281 end, 9199, 9315, 9670, compare 10,060. The Lord glorified his human or put on the divine by degrees from his infancy ; thus, he first made himself truth from the divine, afterwards divine truth, and at length divine good ; this procedure of his glorification, consequently the whole life of the Lord when he was in the world, is described in the internal sense of the Word, 7014. The Lord when he was in the world made his human divine truth, and then also called good Father ; but after his last temptation upon the cross he made his human divine good, 7499 ; in connection with this, that divine truth cannot be received by any angel, but only in its third emanation as truth divine, 7270 ; and that the Lord, as the divine truth, was the mediator, before he was fully glorified, 8705. When the Lord was in the world, he was divine truth and divine good in him was the Father, but when glorified he made himself divine good also as to the human, and divine truth is called the comforter or spirit of truth which proceeds from him ; when this is understood many arcana may be known concerning what the Lord said of himself and the Father, 8724 ; passages cited seriatim, and particularly that he was divine truth when in the world, and divine good when he was glorified and departed out of the world, 9199; briefly, 9987, 10,011 end. The glorification of the Lord even to divine good is described in the internal sense of the Word where the process of expiation is given (Lev. xvi) ; it was also manifested to the angels when Aaron performed those things, and at this day when they are read in the Word, briefly ex. 9670. The Lord was glorified by the procedure of divine good through the whole human, ill. 10,011; and the conjunction of divine truth, 10,012, 10,015. The Lord glo- rified his human at the same time that he conquered the hells and dis- posed the heavens into order ; and this by temptations admitted into himself, the last of which was the passion of the cross ; passages cited, 10,026. The Lord glorified his human to the ultimates, which are the flesh and bones, as appears from the fact that he left nothing of the human in the sepulchre, HI. 10,044, particularly 10,125, 10,252, 10,825, cited below. The glorification of the human was the union of divine truth with divine good, and this union was through the whole human, internal and external, 10,047; the former fully sh. 10,053; that it was to the very ultimate or external sensual, 10,028; that it included the extremes and exteriors, 10,051 ; compare 10,052 end. The glorification is treated of in two states ; the first state was to make the human divine truth and unite it to divine good ; the second, to act from divine good by divine truth, ill. 10,057, 10,060, ill. 10,076. Where the second state of the glorification is treated of, the divine in 9: LOR 601 the heavens and the unition of the Lord with the angels is described ; also that it is the divine human, and that no other is acknowledged Lord, 10,067, 10,068. The Lord glorified his human by making it divine truth, and by degrees also divine good, after which he acts into heaven and the world by the influx and communication of divine truth, ill. 10,076, 10,118; the two states, ill. by the two states of man*s regeneration, 10,057, 10,067, 10,076; the latter of them by the sun and its light, 10,106. The glorification of the Lord even as to the body, illustrated and confirmed from the soul forming the body to its own likeness in man ; thus, that the human of the Lord is not as the human of man, and that he is the only anointed of Jehovah, 10,125; further ill. 10,264, 10,269. Things said in the Word concerning the Lord are to be understood in a supereminent sense, thus, where it treats of the preservation of truths and goods, and of the resurrection in reference to man, his divine hfe in the sensual part, or proper life of the body is to be understood ; thus, the resurrection of the body itself unlike other men, 10,252. The glorification of the Lord even to the flesh and bones is manifestly shown by his entering through the closed doors, &c., 10,825. The internal sense of the Word every- where treats of the Lord's glorification, which is represented to the apprehension of the angels, together with its innumerable consequences under the most beautiful forms, 2249, 2523 ; and that the whole of Psalm xlv. treats of it. 10,258. That the Lord cast the evil into hell and elevated the good to heaven after he glorified his human, 8018, 8258; that he placed the hells under subjection to heaven, 8273; and that the presence of a little child is sufficient to thrust the infernal crew down into their hells, 1271. As to the general doctrine of the glorification of the Lord's human, see the passages cited, 9315 end; see also below (74). 54. The Lord's Transfiguration [transformatio]. When Peter, James and John saw the Lord transfigured, it was the divine human which they saw, not with the eyes of the body, but with the eyes of the spirit, 3212. The face of the Lord appearing as the sun, was divine good; his garments appearing like light, divine truth, 4677, 5319, 5954, 9212 and citations. The divine manifested in heaven as a divine man was the Lord from eternity, and the same as the Lord showed to his disciples when he was transformed, 5110. The divine itself of the Lord never appeared as a face, but his divine human, and thereby, as if it were in it, divine love or mercy, 5585. The transformation of the Lord exhibited his divine human such as it was and appeared in divine light ; such also as the Word is in its internal sense, and such as divine truth is in heaven, 5922. Moses and Elias appeared talking with the Lord when he was transformed because of representing the Word, 5922. The glory of the Lord when he was transformed was divine truth manifested, 9429. See Glory. 55. The Lord called the Deliverer or Redeemer, because he reallv liberated the human race from the infestation of infernal spirits by assuming the human and making it divine, eV/. and «^. 6280 — 6281, 7205, 8866. The liberation of man is accomplished by the influx of good from the Lord received into man, and elevating him from hell, ill. 6368. The spiritual church could never have been delivered from the infestation of falses unless by the holy proceeding of the divine ^■i 602 LOR human, which flows in as light from the sun, 6864. The spiritual could not be delivered from the infestation of infernal spirits until the Lord's resurrection, 6945, 9197; and passages cited above (8), 6306, &c. ; see Egypt (7), Hand (p. 302); and as to the place of infestation, see Earth. The Lord redeemed the whole human race by the subju- gation of hell, and ever after saves all who suffer themselves to be regenerated by a life according to his precepts, 10,152; that he redeemed man by his blood according to each sense, external, internal, and in- most, 10,152. The price of redemption, predicated of those who are saved, is the measure in which they esteem good and truth from the Lord ; in the supreme sense, his merit and justice ; ill. and passages cited, 2966 ; see below (57). For the representation of deliverance by the Lord, see Moses. 56. The Lord called the Mediator means the divine human as the only medium of conjunction with the divine, which otherwise cannot be thought of, i7/. 4211, ill. 4724; ill, and *A. from the signification of a covenant, 6804; ill. 8864. Mediation and intercession are pre- dicated of divine truth, because it is the immediate procedure of divine good, and the nearest in proximity to it, ill, 8705. Mediation is pre- dicated of the Lord when he was in the world, because he was then the divine truth, and mediation is predicated of him now that he is glori- fied and become divine good, because no one can think of the divine except he form to himself the idea of a divine man, 8705: how con- tinual intercession is predicated of love, ill. 8573. 57. The Lord called Justice. The Lord's justice consisted in this, that in all his combats he desired the salvation of the human race, and nothing for himself, ill, 1813. The Lord was not born justice as to the human essence, but he was made justice by temptation-combats and victories gained in his own strength ; that this was predicted by the prophets, 1813, 2025. The merit of the Lord's justice pertained to the divine rational, not to the rational merely human, 2798. The justice of the Lord is predicated of the good of love, judgment of truth, sh. 2235; br. 3021. The Lord is the Only Just, and men are only so far just or justified as they receive good from him, ill, &nd sh. 9263. The merit and justice of the Lord consists in his subjugation of all the hells, and in reducing them to order, ill, 9715, 9937. The good of the Lord's merit and justice is the only good that reigns in heaven, 9715 end. Merit and justice are attributed to the Lord because he alone conquers the hells and keeps them in subjection, br. 9979 ; ill, 10,239. More particularly, justice pertains to the divine human and the holy proceeding, because it is the Holy [Spirit] proceeding from the Lord's divine human that separates the evil from the good, ill. and sh, 2319 — 2321. For the representation of the Lord made justice as to the human essence, see Mrlchizedek ; and for the general subject, see Justice, Justification, Merit. 58. The Lord as the Divine Law treated of, 6714 and sequel. The Lord first made himself the divine law or divine truth, and afterwards divine good, 6716; the latter when glorified, 6753; the difi'erence i7/. 6864. The divine law is not the truth of doctrine acquired externally, but the truth itself produced in the human from the inmost divine, 6717. The divine truth or divine law was the divine itself, which before the Lord's advent flowed-in through heaven, and this divine in LOR 603 ' itself was good, 6720. The divine law or divine truth proceeds from the Lord's divine humau, and is first received in the midst of scientifics and falses, &c., 6723 — 6726 ; that scientifics were also the first plane in the Lord, 6750. The Lord made himself the divine law by deliver- ing himself from all that was false in the human derived from the mother, 6753. While the progress of the divine law in the Lord's human is treated of it is called the truth of the divine law; how it was in danger of destruction by the false, 6771, 7164; the former only, 6827. When the Lord made himself the divine law he received the fire of divine love into his human, and united it to truth there ; also that this is meant by the union of divine truth to divine good in the natural, 6834 ; the latter, 6836 : and that the human of the Lord is divine, or it could not be receptive of the fire of divine love, 6849. By the divine law is meant the Word, the quality it is in the internal sense, 7089; thus order itself, charity itself, and faith itself, 7166— 7167; further as to order, 7186, 7206, 7396, 7995, 8999; 9290 and citations; 9987 and citations ; 10,119; and that such law or truth is to be understood as internal and external, 7381. The law in the supreme sense is divine truth from divine good, and in the relative or internal sense, the truth of faith from good, 8753, 8817. When it is said of the Lord that he fulfilled all things of the law, it is meant all things contained in the internal sense concerning the glorification of his human, and concerning temptations, 10,239. For the representation of the Lord as the divine law, see Moses : see also p. 504 — 505. 59. The Lord as the Word or Divine Truth, By the Word, where it is said the Word was with God, and God was the Word, is meant the Lord as to the divine human, thus truth ; and because truth, revelation ; and because revelation, the revealed Word itself, 2894, ill, 8823, 8931; see below, 9315. The Lord is the Word, thus doctrine, because the Word is from him, and he is in it, 2533, 2859 ; but that he is in it according to reception, 2531. The Lord is good itself and truth itself, and all good and truth proceed from him, 201 1, 2016, 2882—2892, 2904 ; see above (1). The Lord as the Word, or divine truth, is called the Son, as divine good the Father, 2803, 3703, 3704, 3736, 4334. Divine good could never be and exist without divine truth, nor divine truth without divine good ; hence the divine marriage was from eternity, that is, the Father was in the Son and the Son in the Father, sh, 2803 ; that there is a divine marriage of truth and good in the liOrd, from which comes the heavenly marriage, 2509, 2588, 2618, 2649, 2803. The Lord as to the divine human from eternity was truth itself, and the same after he was born into the world, 2803 end, 3195; ill. 3210. The Lord is called the Son of Man as truth divine, and it was as the Son of Man that he underwent temp- tations, sh. 2813. The Lord as to good could not be tempted, but only as to truth when bound, because there are fallacies and falses which infringe upon truth, ill, 2813. Truth divine itself is above all temptation, thus truth divine in the human divine of the Lord, which underwent temptations, is truth rational ; the difference between divine truth and truth divine, ex, 2814. The very esse of the Lord was divine good, his very existere divine truth, and the proceeding hereof, the former born by the latter, divine good rational, 3210. The Lord is nothing but divine good, and this as to both essences, namely. 604 LOR the divine itself and the divine human ; hut in his proceeding, or as divine good appears in heaven, he is divine truth, 3/04, 3712 end, 4577, 4180. Divine truth is not in divine good but from it, the one being as a Father and the other a Son ; such a distinction of Father and Son is also preserved in the Word for the sake of human under- standing, 3704, 4207. The divine spiritual or divine truth is not in the Lord, but from him, and this is meant by the spirit of truth in John, ill. 3969. Divine truth does not proceed from the divine itself, but from the divine human ; its procedure before the assumption of the human, and afterwards, t7/. 4180, 6371—6373. The Lord was divine truth before he glorified his human, and on this account he calls himself the truth, and is called in Genesis the seed of the woman ; but by glorification he was made divine good, so that the spirit of truth then proceeds from him, 4577. Divine truth, or the Word, is the infinite existing from the infinite esse, thus it is the Lord as to his human, the proceeding of which flows into heaven, and by the medium of heaven into human minds, 4687. Divine truth from the Lord's divine human is the holy [principle] itself, by which alone men can be made holy ; ill. by blood in the Holy Supper and as the means of sanc- tification, 4735. Divine truth proceeding from divine good, that is, from the Lord, is the verimost reality and verimost essential in the universe, out of which all things are brought forth and exist, 5272, 6880, ilL 7270, ill. 7678, 7796, 8200, 9407, 9410, 9499; see below (60), 8861. Divine good as being in the Lord, and divine truth as proceeding from him, ill. by the case of the sun, from which light proceeds; passages cited, 5704, 8241, 8644 and citations, 8897, 9199 and citations, 9498, 9571, 10,196, 10,261, 10,569, 10,605, particularly 9684. Divine truth from the Lord is the common principle of all things, which subsist, such as they are, by its constant influx, thus also the human soul ; in this sense the Lord is called the Word, by which all things were created, 6115. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord cannot be heard or perceived by any one until it has become human by passing through the heavens ; the spirits bv whom it is then enunciated are in that state called the holy spirit, '6982, 6995, ill. 6996; see below, 7004. While he was in the world the Lord made himself the divine truth, but after his resurrection the divine good ; henceforth he was not himself the divine truth, but it proceeds from his divine human, and is what is called the Holy Spirit, 6993, 7499, 8724; passages cited, 9199, 9315, 9670, 9987, 10,011 end; also that the trine is perfect in the Lord, not as three distinct persons, sh. 6993 ; see above (3). All truth that is uttered is from the Lord, and it also proceeds immediately from him, as well as mediately by angels and spirits, ill. 7004 ; further, concerning the conjunction of truth immediately proceeding from the Lord with truth proceeding mediately, 7055, 7056, 7270; and con- cerning this with the Lord himself when he was in the worid, 7058 ; see Influx (I), 6058, &c. Divine truth proceeding immediately from the Lord forms a radiant belt around the sun of heaven because it can- not be received by the angels, 7270, 8443 ; but that the Lord really made himself divine truth while he was in the worid, 6993, 7499, cited above. The divine itself never instructed and spoke with man immediately, but by divine truth, and this also was the Lord in the world, from whom divine truth now proceeds, 8127 and citations. LOR 605 Neither divine good itself nor divine truth itself can be in heaven, but they are far above it, because the divine in itself is infinite, ill. 8760. The Word, which is divine truth, could not be revealed except by Jeho- vah in human form, thus by the Lord, sh. 9315. All the words of the Lord were divine truth proceeding from him as the divine human, or the divine itself in human form, sh. 9398. Divine truth from the Lord is not speech like man*s, but it fills the heavens as light and heat from the sun fills the world ; how it proceeds from the Lord and flows- in, ill. by spheres and circles, 9407 ; and that it is as the substance of heaven, 9408 ; and indeed the one only substantial in all things, 9410; see above, 5272. The Lord's presence with heaven and also with man is by the Word or divine truth ; also that the Lord presents himself present with man, not man with the Lord, 9415. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord and received by man is the Spirit of truth, the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, &c., fully sh. 9818. Divine truth that was in the Lord when he was in the world, and which he himself then was, is meant by the Spirit of Jehovah, 9818, ^987. Divine truth or the Word is the law of order, and the Lord, who is the Word, is order itself as to the divine human ; passages cited, 9887 end. The Word in its First [principle] is the Lord, and man in the supreme or First is the Lord ; how the first holds all in connection by the last, ill, 10,044. ^ 60. Truth Divine as distinguished from Divine Truth in the Lord, is truth rational as the angels have it, and it consists in appearances of truth, 2814. Truth diviue in the Lord is called the son of man, but before glorification, 2813, 2814. Truth divine is what was scourged and crucified by the Jews, and is the same as the Word in its internal sense, 2813, 9144 and citations. Truth divine in the human divine of the Lord was susceptible of temptation, but divine truth in the divine human not so, 2814. Truth divine is divine truth formed to reception by the angels of the third heaven, because divine truth itself cannot be received, but encompasses the sun of heaven, ilL 7270. Truth /row the divine is not used in the same sense as truth divine, but is predicated of those who are in damnation, 7955. Truth divine used in the sense of divine truth as the verimost essential and one only substantial by which all things exist, 8861 ; see above (59), 5270, &c. 6L The Lord's Glorification represented in man's Regeneration. The secrets of wisdom concerning the Lord's glorification, include the secrets of man's instruction and regeneration, 1502, 3471 and citations, 4237. Man is created anew by the Lord according to the order of his own progress in intelligence and wisdom, but every one according to his particular nature and genius, 1554. The regeneration of man is similar to the glorification of the Lord, also the first conception of his rational mind, but the formation of the new rational is different, 2093. All the states of the church were represented by the Lord when he was in the world, and the manner in which men under all these circumstances are saved by him ; also that he could assume any state he pleased, 2661, 2786, 2795, 2796. The state of the celestial was represented in the divine rational of the Lord ; the state and salvation of the spi- ritual in the first or human rational, 2661 end. The divine spiritual of the Lord is represented by the same things as the spiritual principle in man, or those of the human race who are spiritual, 2830. The 606 LOR divine order into which the Lord brought all things in his human is represented in man when all that he receives from the Lord exists with hira in spiritual and celestial order, 3017. The procedure of regenera- tion is similar to the procedure of the Lord in making his human divine, and indeed so far as man is created anew he has the divine, so to speak, in himself; only, that nothing is done by his own power, 3043; how effected by the Lord in him, 3057; and more particularly in what the difference between the Lord and man consists, 3138. The procedure of man's regeneration is similar to the Lord's glorification, because it is according to divine order, and cannot be otherwise done, 3141, 3490; that both are gradual, through the whole life-time, and not accomplished at once, 3200. The regeneration of man makes him altogether a new creature, so that his form, when the material body is laid aside is inexpressibly beautiful ; that in this also it is an image of the Lord's glorification as shewn to the disciples when the Lord was transfigured, 3212; and that the procedure of regeneration by which the natural man is made new, is according to the same order in which the Lord made his natural divine, 4027; further, on the subject generally, 6827, 7166, 7193, 9670, 10,021, 10,042, 10,047, 10,058, 10,060, 10,076, 10,239, 10,240. See Regeneration, Represen- tation. 62. The Divine Power of the Lord, is divine truth proceeding from the divine human, and is represented as both rational and natural, 6947—6948, 6954, 701 1. The power of divine truth from the Lord proceeds by influx, 6948. Divine truth from the Lord is power itself, for it is the verimost essential from which all essences exist in both worlds, 8200. The Lord's omnipotence is predicated of divine truth, 8281 ; and divine truth is the same as the divine human, 10,258. All power is of truth from good, thus by good from the Lord, 9410, 10,019 end; passages cited, 10,082; 10,088, 10,182. The divine power of the Lord is the power of saving the human race, and this implies power over the heavens and over the hells ; more particularly the removal of hell from man, ah. 10,019, br, 10,182, ill, 10,239; and that hence all merit and justice is attributed to the Lord, 9486. The whole work of salvation was done by the power of divine truth from divine good; thus it was of the Lord's^own power or proprium, 10,027. That the Lord really procured goods and truths to himself by his own power, and thus made the human divine, 3975, and citations; see above (46); and, further, as to the exercise and representation of divine power, under the word Hand. 63. Esse and Existere predicated of the Lord. Esse is predicated of life, existere of the reception of life, 3938. The esse of Jehovah could never be communicated to any one but to the Lord alone, who is Jehovah as to both essences; passages cited, 3938; why incommu- nicable, 6872, 6849. Existere could be predicated of the Lord when he was in the world, but not since the human was made divine, 3938. In the Lord all is infinite thus esse, but from the Lord yet not in him, is what is eternal, thus existere, 3938; see above (59 )i! 3704, 3969; also (37), 4559. The most ancient church could not adore the infinite esse but the infinite existere or existing, which they could perceive as a man, because they knew it was produced through heaven which thence acquired the form of a grand man, 4687. It was perceived in the most LOR 607 ancient church that the time would come when that infinite existing could not flow into human minds, hence their revelation and prophecy that One should be born who would make the human divine, or the infinite existing one with the infinite esse, 4687. The divine existing is the divine proceeding from the divine esse, and also in image is a man because heaven, of which it is the all, represents a grand man, 4692. The Lord as to the divine itself is the divine esse, and as to the divine human which makes heaven, he is the divine existing; that the divine esse must become the divine existing before it can be appre- hended, 4724; but that the esse and the existing are still one, 4692. The esse itself and existere itself, which are good itself and truth itself in the abstract, can only be supposed by abstracting all that is com- prehensible in a human' idea concerning the divine, 5110. The esse and existere are involved in the repetition, I AM THAT I AM; not the divine itself and the divine human as before the Lord's advent, because the human was also made divine, thus esse itself, and the existere is now its holy proceeding or divine truth, 6880, 6882. The divine esse is meant by Jehovah, thus the divine good of the divine love; the divine existere by God, thus the divine truth proceeding from his divine good, 6905, 7590, 8724, 8864, 8988, 9303, 10,158. The esse of all things is the divine itself; the existere of all things divine truth proceeding therefrom, 7796. 64. Why the Lord was born on our earthy explained, principally that the Word might be written, 9350—9362. The Word could be written and published abroad upon our earth, whence it could be made mani- fest to all in the other life, from all parts of the universe, that God was made man, 9351, 9356, 9357. The art of writing and its improve- ment from the earliest ages, at length printing, and in like manner commercial intercourse, was provided for the sake of the Word, 9353. In every other earth divine truth is revealed by spirits and angels, and cannot extend far beyond families, besides which it is continually liable to perversion; by means of the Word, on the contrary, it remains in its integrity for ever, 9358; see also, 9793. The Lord manifests himself in an angelic human form to the inhabitants of other earths, who are thus prepared to receive the Word gladly when they hear that he was actually made man, 9359, 9361. Add to these reasons, the real ground of them, that the inhabitants of this earth belong to the external and corporeal sense in the grand man, 9360; and that the conjunction of heaven and thereby of the Lord with the human race, could not be pre- served without the Word in our earth, 9400. 65. The Lord known throughout the Universe. The inhabitants of all the earths, if not idolaters, adore the divine under a human form, thus the Lord; they know also that no one can be conjoined to the divine except by some idea grounded in form, 6700. The worship of God throughout the universe under some form, and indeed in idea under the human form, is from heaven, because the Lord is heaven itself, 10,159. The spirits of Mercury acknowledge the Lord God manifested to them in human form from the sun of heaven, 7 1 73. The inhabitants and spirits of Venus, 7251, 7252; of Mars, 7477y 7478; of Jupiter, 7173, 8031, 8541—8547; and of Saturn, 8949. Some described who worship an idol of stone, confessedly that they may think of the invi- sible God, and that they were told they might worship the invisible in •608 LOR the Lord, who is visible, 9972. Other spirits from some tarth in the universe m discourse concerning the Lord 10,736—10,738; especially that they are confounded by strange spirits coming to them with the idea of three persons, 10,736; that they think of God as a man, both from intenor perception and because he has appeared to them in human form; that this is confirmed by the similiar perception of the ancients in our earth, 10,737. These spirits also were unwilling to hear of a trine m God except as a similar trine exists in every angel, viz., as the inmost or invisible life, the external visible in human form, and the proceeding sphere, 10,738. The author's remarks hereupon, illustrating trora the Word and from rationality that the human of the Lord is divme; thus, that his inmost is what is called the Father, his external or human the Son, and his divine proceeding the Holy Spirit, 10,738. Another conversation with spirits from a remote earth concerning the Lord, and the Lord manifested in a scene of judgment, 10,810, 10,811. 66. The second coming of the Lord, or the coming of the Son of man, is the presence of the Lord in every one, 3900; compare ,0067. The signs preceding the Lord's coming have respect to the reception of good and truth; the sign of the Son of man appearing in heaven, is the Lord as truth divine, 4060. The Lord has come into the world as often as the church has been vastated, not in person, as when he assumed the human by nativity, but by appearings, or manifestations, and by inspi- rations, whence we have the Word, 4060. The coming of the Lord as the Son of man is the revelation of the internal sense of the Word 4060; together with the acknowledgment of him in faith and heart passages cited, 6895; ill. and *A. 9807. The consummation of the age IS the time of the Lord's coming, because so long as any charity and faith remain, he is with the old church; but when these are perished, he passes to a new church, 4535. The coming of the Lord is the influx of truth into the thought of man from the Word, 4712. The coming of the Lord is the influx of divine truth by heaven, the glory in which he comes is intelligence and wisdom which appears before the angels as the splendor of light, 4809; his presence and advent further %IL by the glory of light, 8427. If any one saw the Lord he would adore him from externals not from internals, not so those who are affected with truths and do goods from internals, 5066, 5067; see also, aA^^ ^i ^^^^ *^ ^^^ ^^^* denotes his presence in the Word, 9405, 9411. The advent and presence of the Lord is predicated of the Word, because the Word is divine truth itself proceeding from him, and what proceeds from the Lord is the Lord himself, ill. 9405, ill. 9407. See Morning, Day-dawn, Influx (2), Light (3), Life (16, 18). 67. The Lord in the Revealed Word. The Word is the receptacle and treasury of the celestial and spiritual things of the Lord, ill. 1 888. 1 he Word m the letter is representative and significative of arcana which no one sees but the Lord and the angels from him, 1 984 The internal of the Word, which is its life and soul, has respect to nothing but the Lord, his kingdom, and the church, and to such things in man as belong thereto, 1984; the life of the Word also flows-in into the minds of those who read it holily, 3424. When the Word is read ; where it treats of the Lord's perception and thought while he was in the world, the angels are more and more illustrated concerning the conjunction of the human essence with the divine, concerning the con- LOR 609 junction of the Lord with heaven, and the reception of his divine in their human, &c., 2249. When the intercession of Abraham for Sodom and Gomorrah is read, the angels perceive ineffable things con- cerning the anxiety of the Lord's love for the human race, 2275, 2283. The Word is from the Lord, and the life of the Lord flows into the literal sense bv means of the internal, 2310, 2311, 6516 ; or into the truth that is from him, 8604. Unless the internal sense of the Word and of the rites of the Jewish church had expressed the whole life of the Lord, even to his thoughts and perceptions, when he was after- wards in the world, it would have been necessary that he should have come immediately after the fall of the most ancient church, 2523. There are angels who, while they lived in the world, thought of the Lord's human as that of another man ; how such have been instructed and brought into association with celestial angels by the internal sense of the Word, 2574. The internal sense of the Word is truth divine as distinguished from divine truth, and it was this which the Jews scourged and crucified as the Son of Man, 2813. It is the same thing whether you say truth divine or the Lord as truth divine, because the Lord is truth itself, inasmuch as he is the Word itself, 2813 ; that he is also doctrine itself, 2533, 2859, 3364, 3393, 4687, 5321. The especial subject of which the internal sense of the Word treats is the Lord's divine human, and the all of doctrine in the Word is to wor- ship him, and to love him, 2859. The Word has existed in all ages, not as we have it at this day, but at first by revelation to every one, and successively by written correspondences ; that under all these cir- cumstances, it has treated of good and truth, and of the Lord alone as the source of good and truth, 2895—2899, 3432, 10,355, 10,632. In regard to the Word of the New Testament, also, the Lord spake from representatives and significatives because from divine truth itself, 2900. See Language (8), particularly A677, 4807, 4957. The re- presentatives and significatives of the Word are such that all and each in the supreme sense regards the Lord ; and in the internal or respective sense the reception of good and truth from him, whereby his kingdom is formed, 2904, 3245, 3296. The Word is not written according to divine truths, but divine truths from the Lord flow down into its appa- rent truths, and thereby conjoin angels and men with him, 3362, 3364, 3376. It is perceived in heaven that the Word treats of the Lord, and that it is wholly from him ; also that the Lord, when he was in the world, was the Word, 3382. The Lord is the Word, and hence divine doctrine, in the supreme sense, in the internal sense, and also in the literal sense, 3393; ill. 3439, 3712. The Lord came into the world and revealed the internals of the Word when there was no longer any good, not even natural, in order that the truth of the Word might not be profaned, ill. 3398. The principles of the Word are three : the divine human of the Lord, love to him, and love to the neighbour, 3454; and from the acknowledgment and love of these principles the conjunction of man with heaven is effected by means of the Word, 4217. The Word in its essence is the infinite existing from the infinite esse, thus the Lord himself as to his human, from which divine truth now proceeds, 4687. The Word actually descends from the Lord, and passes through heaven to the world, being adapted as it proceeds to the various understanding of angels and men, 6221 end. R R 610 LOR LOR 611 9400, 9407. The Word is holy in every jot and tittle, even where it treats of ritual observances which are abrogated, because they all represented the Lord, and they still contain the celestial sense in their bosom, 9349. See Word. 68. The various Names by which the Lord is called, are used in the Word on account of the internal sense, ilL 300, 2001. The Lord is called Jehovah as love itself or the esse of all life, 1 735. He is called the LordJehovih when temptations and victories therein are predicated, 1 793, 1819. He is called Schaddai, and El-Schaddai, from temptations and consolation after temptations, ill, and sh, 1992, 3667, 4162, 5615, 5628, 7193; and because Abraham worshipped Schaddai, 2001, 5628, 6003, 6229, 7194. He is called Jehovah when love or good, and when the celestial church is treated of; but God when faith or truth, and when the spiritual church form the subject, 2001, 2586, 2769, 2826,3921, 7194, 7268, 7311, 8760, 8864, 8921, 8988, 9160, 9221, 9420, 10,081; see below, 3969. He was called by various names in ancient times to denote quality; but one God was understood and acknowledged under all, till worship became merely external, and every one was at length worshiped as a separate God, 2724, 3667. He is called Jehovah as the Father, and God as the Son, thus as the divine human ; the latter, when the spiritual man is treated of, 2807 end. He is called God when truth, thus combat, is predicated, and Jehovah when good, into which consolation is insinuated after temptation-combats, 2822. He is called Jehovah when the subject is good, God when the subject is truth, Jehovah God when both good and truth are included, and Jehovah Zebaoth when the divine power of good, or omnipotence, 2921. He is called Jehovah God when the divine human is predicated, 8864. The Lord, so called, in the Old Testament is the same as Jehovah Zebaoth, or Jehovah; the Lord, so called, in the New Testament, is also the same as Jehovah, but he is not called Jehovah in the latter case because it would not have been believed that he was Jehovah, and because he was really not so as to the human essence before it was fully united to the divine, 2921 ; passages cited, 5663. He is called Lord in the New Testament as to good ; Master as to truth, 2921, sh. 9167; that Lord signifies good, sh. 4973, ill. 4977; and that good really is Lord, 9167. He is called Christ the Lord at the annunciation; Christ, as the Messiah, the Anointed, the King; Lord, as Jehovah, 2921 end. He is called the Lord's Christ as the divine truth of divine good; also that Christ is the Messiah which is the same as Anointed, or King, 4973, 9144, 9954. He is called Jesus from divine good, Christ from divine truth, Jesus Christ from the divine marriage of good and truth, 3004, further ill. and sh. 3005—3010, 5502. He is called Jehovah God of heaven as to the verimost divine essence, or the divine in the highest, and rela- tively in the internal man; God of earth as to the human essence, and relatively as to his presence with the external man, 3023; compare 306 1 . He is csdled God when the subject proceeds from truth to good, Jehovah when it proceeds from good to truth, 3969. He is called El, Elohim, El-Elohe [God], when the subject is truth, ill. 4402, 6003, 9 1 60, 10,154. The Lord is called the God of Israel, because by his advent into the world he saved the spiritual, 7091. He is called Jah, from Jehovah, when his divine truth is glorified, 8267. He is called a Man of War, and a Hero, because he fought against infernal spirits when in the world, and still fights for the human race, 8273 ; see also, 8624 — 8626, 10,019 end, 10,053. He is called the Holy One of Israel, ^c, from the holy proceeding of truth, 8302. He is called Jehovah, Jehovah, God, to denote the divine itself, the divine human, and the divine pro- ceeding, thus, the trine in the Lord, 10,617. By the name of the Lord is meant all things in one complex by which he is worshiped, 3488. See Name, Worship. 69. The Lord called Shiloh, from a word which signifies peace, because peace was procured in his kingdom when he assumed the human divine, ill. 6373. 70. The Lord called the Sent, refers to the divine human and its influx from eternity, which was always manifested in human form and called the angel of Jehovah, &c., ill. and sh. 6280. By the Sent, is espe- cially meant the proceeding, ill. in the above sense, 6831, 9303. See to Go Forth. 71. The Angel of the Lord, is the Lord himself as to the divine human, also the divine in heaven with the angels, and the same in men who are receptive of it; passages cited, 10,528. The Lord is called an angel as to the divine human, because the Lord from eternity was the divine itself passing through the heavens, and made manifest under the form of an angel ; thus, in the human form which the Lord actually put on in the world, 6831, ill. and sh. 10,579. That by angels, when mentioned in the Word, the Lord himself or somewhat divine is meant, and that they are called Gods from the reception of the divine proceed- ing, 1925, 2821, 3039, 4085, 4295, 4402, 7268, 7873, 8192, 8301, 10,528. 72. Apparent Truths concerning the Lord. When remembrance is predicated of the Lord it denotes his mercy, for he who knows all and every particular thing from eternity, cannot be said to recollect, 1049. To see any one predicated of the Lord, denotes the knowing his quality, for he who knows all from eternity has no need to see (or look), 1054. To descend and see is predicated of the Lord according to the appear- ance, and cannot really be said of him who is omniscient and omnipre- sent, he is called the most high likewise (and hence said to descend), because he is the inmost, 1311, 6854. To see, predicated of the Lord, is to foresee and provide, 2837. To hear and to see, predicated of the divine, has reference to the infinite wiUing and understanding, 3869, especially the end. To swear, predicated of the Lord, denotes the eternal and irrevocable truth of the thing named, 2842, ill. 7192. Anger is attributed to the Lord according to the appearance, for he who is love itself is angry at no one, still less does he curse and slay any one; how these and similar expressions are to be understood, 245, 592, 735, 1093, 1838, 1857, 1874, 5798, 6991, 6997, 7344, 7533, 8284, 9031, 9033 and citations, 9204 and citations, 9313, 10,618; that neither does he lead any into temptations, 1875, 2768; and that he never sends any to hell; nor permits any punishment except for use as an end, 696, 1683. Evil spirits attribute the evil of punishment to the Lord; also, they who are in ignorance of the secrets of the Lord's kingdom; but it is not really the case, 592, 1861. The Lord with- holds man from evil, and if it were not so, man would of himself plunge into hell, 789; that it is only by a mighty power he is restrained, 2406. It is the Lord alone who subdues evil and hell with man, and who r R 2 G12 LOR operates all good in him, without which man would perish to eternity, 987. The Lord cannot be said to repent, because he foresees and pro- vides for all things; but that repentance and grief of heart attributed to him denotes his pity, 587, 588. The Lord is represented as asking questions of man in accordance with man's belief that his thoughts are secret; but the Lord knows all things, 1931, 2693, 6132. Judgment is predicated of the Lord, but he judges all from good, and the evil who reject the good bring the judgment of truth separate from good upon themselves, 2335 ; that judgment pertains to the divine human and the holy proceeding of the Lord, 2320, 2321; also, that truth damns, and good saves, 2769; in other words, that the laws which the evil violate are from the Lord, 6071, ill 7206, particularly 7926. The Lord never opposes any one, but it so appears when a man or a spirit opposes himself to the divine and it is expressed according to the appear- ance, ///. 7042. Ears, eyes, affections, &c., similar to those of man, are attributed to Jehovah, because it is only so that the divine, which infinitely transcends human thought, can be made comprehensible, 2553. The Lord damns no one, curses no one, although it is so ex- pressed in the literal sense of the Word, 2395, ill, 2447. Evils are attributed to the Lord by the sense of the letter, when yet they are from man himself, and only done from permission, 2447. When the Lord is said to dwell in heaven, it is meant not only that he is in heaven, but that he is heaven itself, 2859; see above (17). The evils of hatred, anger, wrath, fury, &c., are predicated of the Lord, when yet the con- trary of all this is true, from appearances ; that the repugnance or opposition of states is thus represented, 3605, 3614; and how the expressions are changed, as the sense of the letter ascends, from evil to good, 3607. When giving is predicated as if the Lord received from Jehovah as another, it denotes what was from his proprium or divine good, 3705, 3740. When going out (from the Father) is predicated of the Lord, the divine formed as man and thus accommodated to percep- tion is meant, 5338. When obeying, or hearkening to the voice of Jehovah is predicated of the Lord, it denotes the union of the divine with the human by temptations, 3381. When observing precepts, statutes, laws, &c., is predicated of the Lord, it denotes his uniting the divine and the human by continual revelations, and this of himself, 3382. Offerings described as gifts to Jehovah are in reahty gifts from the Lord to man, ill. 9938. See Appearance, Truth, Word. 73. Instruction concerning the Lord, from the divine natural and sensual is called inferior, not because these are inferior in the Lord in whom all is infinite, but because sensual men understand divine things sensually, natural men naturally, and only they who have perception are taught from the Lord's divine rational, 4715. A distinction is made between the predicates of the divine natural, and the divine intellectual [principle] or internal human in the Lord, because they who are of the external church cannot elevate their thoughts above the natural human, 6380 ; but that they are elevated to interior things, and are capable of thinking as in the spirit, who are regenerated, ill, 6454, 6945, 7654; and that such elevation is out of sensual lumen into the brightness of spiritual light, 6313, 6843—6845, 6954, 7442, 9407. See Elevation. The first principle of the church is the recognition LOR 613 that there is a God, and that he is to be worshiped; the first instruc- tion concerning his quality, that he created the universe, and that the universe so created, derives its subsistence from him, 6879. The second necessary point of instruction concerning the Lord is that divine truth proceeding from him must be received, 6882; and that by such truth is meant the verimost reality from which all things exist and subsist, and not a mere word, 5272, 6880, 7270, 7(i7S, 8200, 9407. 9410, 9499. The first truth or primary instruction of the church con- cerns the union of the human with the divine itself in the Lord, to which all things have reference, thus it concerns his state of glorifica- tion by temptation-combats, as imaged in the regeneration of man, 10,728 — 10,730. The instruction and regeneration of man so that he may become either celestial or spiritual, and also the instruction of infants in heaven, is involved in the history of Abraham and its reference to the glorification of the Lord in the supreme sense, 1502. How children are instructed concerning the Lord in the other life, 2299. 74. Various Summaries of Doctrine concerning the Lord, I. Ac- cording to the order which closes the exposition of the doctrine of charity and faith, 10,815 — 10,831. (1.) The primary principle of the church is to acknowledge and love God, 10,816. (2.) They who are within the church ought to believe in the Lord, in his divine and human, and to love him, sh, 10,817. C3.) They within the church who do not acknowledge the Lord cannot be saved, because no one can be conjoined to God except from the Lord and in the Lord, sh, 10,818. (4.) The Father is really in the Lord and the Lord is God, sh, 10,819. (5.) They who are in the light of heaven see the divine in the Lord's human, not they who are only in the light of the world, 10,820. (6.) They who have an idea of three persons cannot think of one God, but it is otherwise with those who have an idea of three in one person, as'is the case when a Trinity in the Lord is thought of, 10,821, 10,822; ill, by the likeness of a human father in his son, 10,823 ; see above (53); 4727. (7.) To perceive the divine and human in one person is agreeable to the faith received from the Athanasian Creed, 10,824. (8.) It also appears that the divine and human in the Lord are one person from his resurrection with the whole body, dificrent from other men, 10,825. (9.) They who regard the human of the Lord like that of another man, do not think of his conception from the divine itself, of his appearance when transformed, of the soul forming the body to its own likeness, and, finally, of the Lord's omnipresence, 10,826. (10.) The Lord has all power in heaven and earth because all in him is divine, 10,827. (11.) The Lord came into the world that he might save mankind by subjugating the hells and glorifying the human, and the passion of the cross was that by which the last victory was obtained, sh, 10,828. (12.) Unless the Lord had come into the world no one could have been saved; but that all are saved who beheve in him and love him, and that to love him is to live according to his precepts, 10,828 end, 10,829. (13.) That the Lord put off" all the human from the mother, and put on the human from the father, so that he was no longer the Son of Mary, but the Son of God, from whom he came forth, br, 10,830.

His family going from Ur of the Chaldees and dwelling in Charan, denotes the reception of instruction previous to the institution of the Jewish representative church, 1373 — 1375. After the commencement of this representation. Lot denotes the Lord as to the sensual and corporeal man, 1428, 1563; or, more generally, the external man, 1547. His going with Abram out of Charan denotes that sensual and corporeal things thus repre- sented were adjoined to the Lord in boyhood, 1428. His being called the son of Abram' s brother, denotes truth sensual such as can only pertain to the celestial man, 1434. His coming with Abram out of Egypt, denotes the pleasures of the external man still remaining when scientifics were abandoned, 1542 — 1547. His possessions of the flock and herd and tents distinct from those of Abram, denotes the good of the external man, his worship, &c., separate from the internal, 1562 — 1566. Strife breaking out between the pastors of Abram's cattle, and the pastors of Lot's cattle, and the Canaanite and Perizzite then dwel- ling in the land, denotes the want of correspondence between the ex- ternal and the celestial internal manifested, and evils and falses in the external, 1570 — 1574. Abram' s proposal to Lot that they should se- parate, denotes such pleasures as do not agree with celestial things re- linquished, 1575 — 1582. Lot lifting up his eyes and beholding the plain of Jordan, how fertile it was, &c., denotes the external man illu- minated from the internal, and its perception of goods and truths, 1 583 — 1590. His^choice of the land and journeying away from the east, denotes the turpitude of the external man in a state of separation, its withdrawal from celestial love, 1592 — 1594. His dwelling in the cities of the plain, and pitching his tent towards Sodom, denotes the external man in scientifics only, and extension to cupidities, 1595 — 1598. His being taken captive, with all his acquisition, denotes the occupation of the external man by apparent goods and truths, 1698.

[Note here, that there are pleasures of the will which are m agreement with celestial things, and pleasures which are in disagreement with them, and that when the latter are re- linquished, as understood by the separation of Lot, the representation of the former is continued by Abram himself, because the internal and external are so far one, 1547, 1563, 1568, 1576, 1578. Note also, in the battle with the kings, that Lot represents the external man both as to apparent goods and truths, and as to genuine goods and truths, the latter when called the brother of Abram, 1698, 1707.] See Sodom. 2. After his separation from Abram, Lot no longer represents the Lord, but those who are in external worship and among the evil, but still m the good of charity, 1428, 2317, especially 2324; consequently, the good of the external church, 2370, 2371, 2373, 2399. He also represents the successive states of the church, commencing from such as are here described, even to its end, as signified by the sons of Moab and Ammon, 2324, 2334, 2354, 2405—2406, 2422, 2455. His sitting m the gate of Sodom, denotes the state of such among the evil but still separated from them, 2324. His seeing the two angels, and running towards them, and bowing himself, denotes the state of conscience, the acknowledgment of the divine human and the holy proceeding, and hence humiliation, 2317—2327. His invitation to the angels to enter into his house and wash their feet, &c., denotes the influx and presence of the Lord with those who are in good, and accommodation to their state, 2328—2333. Their coming to his house, his making them a feast, &c., denotes confirmation in good and cohabitation, 2340, 2341. The people of the city clamoring to Lot in the night and demanding the men, denotes the false proceeding of evil, the denial of the divine human, &c., 2351—2354. Lot's closing the inner door of the house, and going to the outer remonstrating with them, denotes the state of the evil not admitted to internal acknowledgement, lest the divine human and the holy proceeding of the Lord should be violated, 2356—2360. His offering to them his two daughters, denotes the felicity which may be found in the affection of good and the affection of truth, 2362 — 2364. The words of the men, their pressing on Lot, and their being near to break the door, denotes the evil regarding as a strange thing the doc- trine and life of good, their endeavour to destroy it, 2368 — 2376. The men sending out their hand, and drawing in Lot, and closing the door, denotes the power of the Lord protecting all who are in the good of charity, and the evil unable to approach them, 2377—2381. The men of the city smitten with Mindness, and labouring to,find the outer door, denotes the state of the evil filled full with falses, 'their inability to see any truth that leads to good, 2383, 2385. The dawn of morning and the angels hastening Lot to depart from the city, denotes the Lord's kingdom approaching, and how the Lord detains man from evil and holds him in good, 2404—2408. Lot's disposition to tarry denotes repugnance, 2410. The men taking hold of his hand and the hand of his wife, and the hand of his two daughters, and leading them away and standing them without the city, denotes the influx of potency from the Lord withdrawing from the false and corroborating truths and goods, 2409 — 2413. His directing them to escape to the mountains, and not look behind them, &c., denotes eternal life to be secured, not by regarding doctrinals, but the good of love, 2414—2420. Lot's 622 LOV n prayer that he might find refuge in the little city of Zoar because he could not reach the mountain, and its being granted, denotes no affec- tion of good with the church in this state but only the affection of truth from which to regard good, 2421—2435, 2439. His coming to Zoar, and the time sunrise, denotes the salvation of those who are m the af- fection of truth, and the presence of the Lord, 2441, 2442, 2456, 2457. Lot's wife looking behind her, and made a statue of salt, denotes doc- trinals regarded and not the hfe, consequently truth wasted of all good, 2453—2455. Lot ascending from Zoar into the mountain and dwelling in a cave there with his two daughters, denotes the obscure good and its affections into which those who had the truth are now introduced, and its presently becoming impure, 2458—2464, the latter 2465, 2466, ill. 2468. Moab and Ammon born of his daughters denotes the religion thus begotten, how full of uncleanness, and this, howsoever holy it be in externals, 2467, 2468. See Moab. LOTS [sortea], are predicated of the Lord's kingdom, because the land which was divided by lots signifies his kingdom, and twelve, all things of charity and faith, 3239. To divide and to cast lots is to dis- sipate truths by reasonings and falses, 3812, 9942, 10,287. LOUSE. See Lice, Lust (7424). LOVE \amor\, 1. Love to the Lord and the Neighbour, the latter of which is called charity, are the two general loves ; the opposites of which are the love of self and the world, 33—36, 7085. A« love to the Lord and the neighbour constitutes heaven, so hatred constitutes hell, 693, 694. It is love to the Lord which becomes charity, or love and mercy towards the neighbour when it descends, 615. Love makes man a similitude or likeness of the Lord; charity an image, ill. 1013, 3324. Conscience, which is of charity, is intermediate between the Lord and man ; this, because there can be parallelism and correspond- ence between the Lord and man as to the goods of love, 1862. The divine, with those who have faith in the Lord, is love and charity, 2023. By love is meant love to the Lord ; by charity love to the neigh- bour, and all they who have the former have also the latter, 2023; further ilL 2227 'y cited 2839. The difference between love and charity is the same as between celestial and spiritual, 2023, 10,242 ; see below (13). To be in love to the Lord is the same thing as to be in the Lord, and there- fore in his love for the whole human race, 2227. The first and chief thing of all doctrine is love to the Lord and charity to the neighbour, and they who are in the affirmative of this can enter at pleasure into rational and scientific truths, yea, and into sensual also, for universal nature is filled with confirmations of it ; this and the contrary ill, 2588. All that is of the love and its delights appears to be of freedom, but the only genuine freedom is in the love of the Lord and the neighbour, 2870 and sequel. See Liberty. Love becomes mercy when any one who is indigent or unhappy is regarded from love, 3063 ; exemplified by the Lord's mercy, 5042. Love to the Lord and the neighbour makes the life most happy, because the divine itself flows into such love, 3539 ; ill. 5660. Love to the Lord and the neighbour carries its own blessedness along with it, and is utterly inconsistent with any thought of reward, ill. 3816, ill. 3956, 6388. See Good (2). Love to the Lord is very hoHness itself, 3852 ; and, conversely, the love of self is hell, 4776. Love to the Lord and the neighbour are what dis- LO V 623 tinguish man from the brute animals, and make his celestial life or X^^'Ja *^"^?PP«s\t«,\°^ake hell, 3957. The fundamental prind' Pie of all love to the neighbour is to act rightly and justly in everything • tow impossible it would be to fall into the false doctrine of fdth a^^^e If this were known and loved, 4730; the former, 5132. It is the verimost truth of the church that love to the Lord and love to the neighbour are the chief things ; and this truth the life of lusts most Tut k^isto? f ^'\.^r '° P°^ ^^ ^^g^ifi^^ - '^^ Word S fear but it IS holy fear with those who are in spiritual worship, and love in Tni! in'.l, 7 '•^^rence with those who are in celestial worship, 5459. rirJ^«l.'

Corporeal and Worldly Loves, are predicated of those who are in mere externals, and not m any celestial or spiritual love, 4288. Thoughts concerning worldly and corporeal things draw man down, so that he cannot have communication with heaven ; from experience, 6210. Cor- poreal and worldly loves have their especial residence in things sensual, because the communication between man and the world is by sensuals- til. and passages cited, 9276. The interiors of those who are in cor' poreal and terrestrial loves are utterly closed ; ill. by the case of the Jews,^ 10,396.

As mutual love consti- tutes heaven, so the love of self or hatred constitutes hell, 693, 694. When the love of self prevails in the church, the doctrine of faith becomes the instrument of self-worship, 1304; see below (10) The love of self is of all the most defiled and profane, for there is that in It which would lift itself above God, 1304. The love of self is the ? Qn'T 1 ono fiJ?' "''* ^""^^ ^^*''^^' ^"* revenge, cruelty, and adultery, 1307, 1308, 1691, 2219 ; see below, 2045, 2057. The love of self is the source of all falses, 1321; and of all persuasions of the false^ Ill 624 LO V I 1675. The love of self imbues the whole nature, and is manifestly perceived in the other life from the spheres of those who are principled in it, 1505; an example of one known to the author, 150C, and of such as had acquired a sphere of self-importance and authority, 1 507, 1508; compare 2219 end; and see below, 4227, 4947. The loves of self and of the world pertain to the external man, and they prevent its life corresponding with the internal, 1568; see below (6), 2041. The love of self described in its infernal quality, and that it, beyond all other loves, disjoins the external man from the internal, 1594. The love of self and the world is excused by ignorance and innocence in childhood, but no longer so when man comes into his own liberty, 1667. See Good (4). They who fight from any love of self in temp- tation-combats have no real faith ; also that the Lord alone fought from celestial love, 1812. The love of self and the world must always sepa- rate man from the Lord unless there be conscience, which is of charity ; in this case also those loves occupy the place of conscience, 1862. The love of self is destructive of all human society and of all heavenly society or heavenly order, ill. 2045, 2057; and the love of the world of all things of faith, 2219; see below, 4750. The love of self is the fountain of all evil loves, thus it is evil itself, 2246; see below (6). The love of self is altogether contrary to the order into which man was created ; some remarks on the signs by which it may be known, 2219. Every one may represent to himself what diabolical forms they are who are in the love of self, and such forms are all who have cherished the delights of that love when they come into the other world, 2363. Nearly all who come into the other life from Christendom are eaten up bv the love of self and the world, 2122. They who are within the church above all others ought to be purified of these loves, 205 1 . So far as the loves of self and the world are removed, so far heavenly love flowing- in from the Lord begins to appear, and to give light in the interiors, 2041, cited above; see below, 3610. They who attribute merit to themselves on account of good actions are in the love of self, for they regard themselves in what they do ; also how distracting the intuitive sphere of self is, 2027. They who are in the loves of self and the world appear to themselves to be in freedom, 2870 and sequel. See Liberty. The loves of self and the world are dark, and induce utter darkness in spiritual things, ill. 3413. See Darkness, 3888, &c. The love of self and the world makes the life most unhappy, because there is influx from hell into such love, 3539 ; see also 5660 end. Life then first flows-in from the Lord when the life of the love of self and the world is extinguished, 3610. When there is no love for the neigh- bour or for the public good, less still for the Lord's kingdom, there is properly speaking no human life ; an example from certain spirits who had only regarded themselves in all things, that they were so corporeal as to be stupidity itself in effigy, 4221. All are in the Grand Man, consequently in heaven, who have done good from their heart's love ; but all are out of the Grand man, consequently in hell, who have in- dulged in the love of self and the world, 4225. They of either sex who have sought to rule over others, by subjugating their minds by various arts, are as poison by which the purer blood and its nerve-vessels are affected; from experience, 4227. They who are in the evil of self- love are really against all good whatsoever, and in the deepest hell ; LO V 625 not so much tbey who are in the love of the world, 4750. Thev who are in avarice are more in self-love than others, although not so openly, 4751 See Gain, Jew. The love of the neighbour is heaven the love of self heU, 4776. Some in the other life Iho have be^ proud outwardly, and m the love of splendour from external cupidity, not internal are under the sole of the foot; but they gradually receive celestial things, 4947. Some in the same situation who have despised ^l^^irM^'^P^T.? ""'^^ themselves; how they attempt to ascend, and that their self-love renders them stupid, 4949. They who have appeared more just than others, and yet have hved in the love of self and the world are of a most malignant quahty; their sphere and their hells briefly described 5721. See Disease. They who are not puri- fied of the loves of self and the world are detained in the other life among evi spirits, who conjoin themselves by insinuation into their loves ; and m such case they cannot be separated except by divine aid. /501; from experience, 6195, cited below (24).

He who is led of himself and his own loves cannot be saved, ^re7^. 10,731. In a summary : that love constitutes the life of man, 10,740; that the love of self and of the world, when thev reign constitute the life of hell, 10,741; that thence flow all evils and their delights, 10,742; hence the denial of all things of the church so that good IS done from external bonds and not internal, 10 744 • that in the other life, when external bonds are taken away, they rush into al wickedness, because such is the delight of their life, which thev concealed in the world, 10,745, 10,746; and that the love of self and of the world is mfernal fire, 10,747. See Hatred, Evil, False Lust, Fire, Hell. ' 6. The Loves of Self and the World the Ongin of all Evils and talses, br, ill. in seriatim passages, 73^Q—7^77y 7488—7494 10 740— onl^^UI!: *"l*i' ^^^^' passages cited, 8678; see above '(5),' 1307, 2045 2219, 2246, 4750. The love of self is interiorly a burning i-^n m? f ''^' *'^^"S*^ i^ ^^y "^t ^^ SO manifested in this Hfe, 6667, 4/dO. The loves of self and the world make hell in man, whom it therefore behoves to know whether he is in such love, 7366 ; see below (7, 8). So far as man is m the love of self, so far he removes himself from neighbourly love, thus from heaven, and so far he is in hell, 7369 So far as any one is in these loves, so far he is not in charity, does not know what chanty is, what faith is, what conscience, and at length disbelieves all that is spiritual, even the life after death, 7490. Where the loves of self and the world reign, the good of love and the truth of taith are either rejected, or extinguished, or perverted ; at length the contrary evds and falses are affirmed, 7491, 7492. The loves of self and the world begin to reign when man comes to the age of discretion and of self-direction, and then the Lord separates the good of inno- cence and charity received from infancy, and withdraws it into the interiors, 7493. See Remains, Good (9). They who are in the loves ot self and the world have not life in themselves, but their life ouoht to be called death, and themselves dead, 7494. It is from this iSve that evil is said to be from man, because he turns the good that flows-in from the Lord to himself, 7643. Good from the Lord continually s s 626 LOV LO V flows into man, and nothing impedes his reception of it [in his exter- nal man] but the cupidities of the love of self and the falses derived from them, 2041 end. Heavenly good vanishes with man according to the degree of increasing concupiscence from the loves of self and the world, 8487. The loves of self and the world are born in man, and they continually draw him away from truth and good as by a latent attraction ; hence the origin of all evils and the destruction of spiritual life as in diabolical gins, &c., 9348. See Evil (2). 7. Signs of the Love of Self : see above (5), 2219, 2363, 2027, 2870; (6), 7366. The contempt of others, the dislike of those who are in spiritual good, with or without manifest arrogance, are the exte- riors of the love of self; the interiors of which are really burning hatred, &c., 4750. The love of self reigns in man when he only re- gards himself and his own in what he thinks and does, thus not his neighbour or the public good, 7367. A man is in the love of self if he regard only his wife, children, and relatives, because these are one with him, and he regards himself in them, 7368. They are in the love of self who despise others, hate them, and seek revenge upon them; and all such, if they are also adulterers, are especially cruel in the other life, 7370; the latter only, 824, 2747, 5057, 5394. The delights which any perceive in these things are properly the delights of self-love, whatsoever they may appear in external form, 7371, 7372. See Delight. 8. Signs of the Love of the World, They are in the love of the world who think about the world and intend gain, having no concern about the hurt of the neighbour, 7373. They are in the love of the world, who by art and cunnins secure to themselves the goods of others, who envy others, and covet the property of others, 7374. The loves of self and the world, so far as they are left without restraint, rush on and grow even to the lust of dominion over the whole earth, yea, even to the throne of God, 7375, 8678 and citations. These two loves are the origins of all evils, and make hell with man, but those are not in them who aspire at honours, power, and wealth, for the sake of their country, because such things are also the means of doing good, 7376, 7377, 7819, 7820, 8318; see below (9.) 9. The Love of the World with the Regenerate, is the love of what- ever it affords as the means of doing good and truth ; in like manner, the love of the body for the sake of a sound mind, and this again for the sake of good and truth, that they may be known and loved, ill. 5159. If the loves of self and the world are regarded as means, not as ends, they are good, 7819, 7820. During man's regeneration the loves of self and the world are to be inverted, that they may be for means and not for an end, ill. 8995. It is the end which quahfies all that man does, and good done from the love of self and the world is not good; that these loves ought to be as the sole of the foot not as the head, 9210. See Good (2). 10. The Love of Self in Worship, makes it internally profane, as represented by Babel, 1326, and variously t7/. 1306, 1308, 1321, 1322, 1594; see above (5) 1304, 2051, 3413, 4227, 7491. When corporeal and worldly loves prevail, the church is only represented, ill. 4288, 10,526, 10,531, 10,560.

It denotes the beginning of regeneration, for it is then that faith is in obscurity, 6548. The cave of the field of Maehpelah is so often mentioned on account of its spiritual signification; passages cited 6551. See Hebron. ' The cave of the field Maehpelah, bought by Abraham as a burial place denotes regeneration commenced with those who are in the good of faith, though obscurely, and this by the Lord, 2934, 2968. The burial of Sarah in Maehpelah, denotes the reception of truth conjoined with good from the Lord, 2979.

AH predictions of things, not in the com- mon order of nature, must be from the Lord ; and this in the case of evil prophets also, sh. 3698. The diviners, augurs, jugglers, pythons, ana others in ancient times studied natural magic, from which nothing aivme could be predicted, but only what was against the Lord, and against the good of love and the truth of faith in him ; all that is thus VOL. II. 'I II 1*1 640 MAG MAG contrary to the Lord is magic or enchantment [mafficutn], whatever it appear in external form, 3698. Egyptian wisdom is the science of natural things, and magic the science of spiritual things, 5223. Ma- gic was nothing but the perversion, and perverse application of things which are of order in the spiritual world ; it is now called natural be- cause there is no acknowledgment of anything spiritual, or beyond nature, 5223 end ; see also 4680. The representatives of spiritual and celestial things were turned into magic in Egypt, where the knowledge of them had been especially cultivated, 5700. The magic practised by the Egyptians was from the abuse of correspondences after the church had come to its end among them, 4964. The perversion of cor- respondences or the science of spiritual things, whereby it becomes magic, is the evil application of such knowledge to govern others and to injure others, 6052. Magic is simply the perversion of order, and especially the abuse of correspondences ; how this consists in the appli- cation of such things to self, and selfish ends, ill. 6692. By the re- presentatives and siguificatives of the ancient church, those who lived in the good of charity had communication with heaven, which commu- nication with many such was open : those, on the other hand, who were not in the good of charity, came to have open communication with evil spirits, and gave birth to magic by perverting the truths of the church, 6692. Egypt signifies scientifics contrary to the truths of the church, because the Egyptians turned the scientifics of the church into things magical ; on this account those representatives and significatives were restored among another people, the Israelites, who acknowledged nothing spiritual, and could not pervert them, 6692. The hieroglyphics and magic arts of the Egyptians are a proof that the representative church existed with that people ; for by their hieroglyphics they represented spi- ritual things, they knew also that they were actual correspondences, and by turning them to magic they associated themselves with the diabolic crowd in hell, 7097, 10,437 and citations. The rod is a representative of power, and really corresponds to it, because power is thereby exer- cised ; but with the magicians [of Egypt] this power is from the abuse of correspondences, and effects nothing except within the hells where they are, 7026. Juggling, enchantment, and magic are from the abuse of divine order and of correspondences, and this takes place by their application to evil ends, such as the end of dominion over others, and of destroying them, 7296, ilL 7337. By the arts of juggling and en- chantment in the Word are signified the arts whereby falses are made to appear as truths and truths as falses, and this especially by fallacies, sh. 7297; further ill. 7298, 7299, 7337, 7426. The imitation of divine things from study and art illustrated by the fantastic imitation of such things with spirits ; that they so appear in externals but internally are filthy and diabolical, 10,284, 10,286; that the external without the internal becomes either magical or idolatrous, 10,437. 2. Magicians and Wise Men [magiy sajnentes]. In a good sense magicians denote interior scientifics, and wise men exterior scientifics ; in Egypt also those who taught the scienTce of spiritual things were called by the former name, and those who taught the science of natural things by the latter, ah. 5223. Magicians in the opposite sense denote those who pervert spiritual things and thereby exercise magic, 5223. By wise men are meant those who investigated and taught the science 641 of spiritual things, and their correspondences with natural ; by sor- cerers, lpr(Estigiator€s]y those who perverted the laws of divine order, especially correspondences, and exercised magical power, 7296. By the wisdom of the sons of the east is signified the interior knowiedees of truth and good ; by the wisdom of the Egyptians, the science of those thmgs : of the former class were the wise men who came from the East at the nativity of Jesus, 3762. 3. Wizards, Sorcerers, or deceitful Jugglers [prcBstigiatores\ de- note those who conjom the falses which spring from the evils of self- love to the truths of faith, 9188. See above (1), 3698, 7297, 7298, (2), 7296. They are sorcerers who are learned from themselves, con- fide only ill themselves, and so love themselves that they aspire to be worshipped as gods ; by such, truths from the Lord are destroyed, 9188 4. Sorceresses, Witches, Sirens, or Female Magicians, Xprcestigia^ trices, magce, sirenes,'] described, how, like sponges, they imbibe the nriost nefarious arts, and at the same time simulate innocence : especially those called sirens, their deceits, punishments, and hells, 831. Many companies of sirens grievously punished by discerption, their arts to evade detection and pain, and how necessary their punishment is for the preservation of man during sleep, 959. The stench of sirens described, and that this arises from their filthy interiors, while as to exteriors they appear beautiful, 1515. Sirens surpass others in quickness of disceri ment, but they turn all to magical practices for the sake of empire over others. Id 15. Sirens are interior sorceresses or witches, and are prone to infest men by night, by influx into their interior thoughts and affec- tions; an instance of their cunning, when they spoke as from the author, and infested good spirits, 1 983. Their interiors are filthy with adulteries and hatreds, and they obsess the interiors of such as have no conscience, but are outwardly fair and honest, 1983. An example of one such whose adulteries and crimes in the body to the number of a hundred were made manifest, with all the circumstances of place and person, though she had positively denied them, 2483. The most part ot sirens come from Christendom, and they are such as hold adultery and whoredom no shame, and are fond of the refinements of Hfe \et quod in decoris vitce] ; an illustration how the delights of conjugial love are changed into the delights of adultery, 2744.^ A crowd of sirens described who govern the popes, 3750.

Spirits addicted to magic appear with rods or wands, which serve them as means ot exercising power ; hence the rod assigned to magicians, and the sceptre to kin^s, 7026. Magicians in the other life can induce dullness as to the apperception of truth, for they know how to withdraw the influx which others receive from heaven, &c., 7298. The power of abusing order and perverting its laws is at length taken away from magicians, chiefly by the exercise of angelic power which annihilates their magic in a moment when they would do evil to the upright, 7299. The power exercised by magicians, is that of truth from the Divme, for truth i8 the verimost essential of all things in both worlds, spiritual and natural, 8200. The operation of spirits of both sexes who endeavour to subju- gate the souls of others, described from experience ; their secret arts and magical practices, 4227. A spirit described who sought to infest the author by magical artifices ; that he extended his hand to exercise imaginary power, but could eff-ect nothing, 5566. There are magical arts in the other life, many in number, utterly unknown m the world ; by such arts spirits can pervert the scientifics of the memory, 4793. 7. The Hells of Magicians, are situated in a plane under the soles of the feet, a little forwards, to the right ; they extend to a great distance, and in the deepest of them are the Egyptians, 6692. The lower earth is under the soles of the feet with the hells round about ; towards the front, are those who have perverted truths and adulterated goods ; to the right, those who pervert divine order and thereby study to acquire power; at the back, are the evil genii, who, from the love of self, secretly contrive evil against their neighbour ; and far beneath, are those who have utterly scorned the Divine, and separated themselves from all that is spiritual, 7090. 8. Passages in the Word. Joseph's power of divination by the cup of silver, (Gen. xliv. 2, 5, 15,) denotes things hidden and future mani- fest in interior truth from the Divine, or truth in which the Divine is, 5736, 5748, 5781. The wise men and sorcerers of Egypt doing the same as Moses by their enchantments (Ex. vii. 11, &c.), denotes the abuse and perversion of divine order, whereby fallacies are made to appear the same externally as truths, ill 7296—7298, ill, 7337, *r. 7388. The Egyptian sorcerers unable to repeat the miracle of the lice by their enchantments (Ex. viii. 18), denotes the power of abusing correspondences withdrawn from them after their vilest evils have be- come manifest, 7419, 7426—7430. See Hand (2), Egypt, Moses. The punishment of witchcraft by death (Ex. xxii. 17), denotes the loss of spiritual life by those in whom falses from the love of self are con- joined with the truths of faith, ill. 9188, 9189. The elders of Midian with witchcrafts or divinations {prcesti'gias'] in their hands (Num. xxii. 4. 7), denotes falsifications, 3242. Nineveh a harlot and mistress of witchcrafts (Nah. iii.), denotes doctrine filled with falsifications and with evils therefrom, 6978. Nineveh selling nations by her whoredoms and families by her witchcrafts (Ibid.)y denotes the falsified good of truth, and the arts whereby falses are made to appear as truths and truths as falses, 7297, compare 9188. The sorcerers of Babylon (Isa. xlvii. 8 — 14), denote those who conjoin the falses of the evil of self-love with the truths of faith, 9188. The witchcrafts of Jacob (Mi. v. 12), denote the false doctrinals of their church, 9188. The whoredoms of Jezebel and her manifold witchcrafts (2 Kings ix. 22), denote perver- sions of truth and falses thence, 9188. The Lord at his advent called a swift witness against sorcerers and adulterers and false swearers (Mai. iii. 5), denotes against those who destroy truths, who destroy goods and who confirm falses, 9188. Diviners, enchanters, necro- mancers, and others of like character forbidden among the sons of Israel (Deut. xviii. 9 — 19), denote those who destroy the truths and goods of the Church by scientifics perversely applied and by the falses of self-love and the love of the world ; thus who from the lust of gain and honour learn and teach, and not from the affection of the truth of faith and the good of life, 9188. Murders, enchantments, whoredoms, and thefts (Rev. ix. 21), denote evils which destroy goods, falses there- from which destroy truths, truths falsified, and goods estranged from truths, 5135. MAGISTRATES, of whom the king is chief, are not to have power over the laws, but to administer them, 10,799—10,806. See Govern- ment. MAGOG, hy Gog and the land of Magog, the prince and head of Meshech and Tubal, is meant worship in externals separated from love to the Lord, and love to the neighbour, and therefore idolatrous, 1151, 2418, 2446, 2928, 3355. Gog from the sides of the North is predicated of all that is false derived from evil, and of all that is evil from the false, 3708. See Japhet. MAHALATH, or BASHEMATH [compare Gen. xxviii. 9; xxxvi. 3], the daughter of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, denotes the affection of truth from a divine origin, 3678, 3687, 3688, 4643. Called the sister of Nebaioth, she denotes the affection of interior ce- lestial truth, 3688. Married to Esau, she denotes the conjunction of such truth with good, 3678, 4643. See Ishmael, Esau. Bashe- math or Adah [compare Gen. xxvi. 34 ; xxxvi. 2], the -daughter of Elon the Hittite, denotes the affection of truth not genuine, and her union with Esau the conjunction of good therewith, which is the first conjunction, 3470, 4643. See Heth, Esau. MAHALALEEL. See Seth. M AH AN AIM, in the original tongue signifies two camps ; in the spiritual sense it denotes the two heavens or kingdoms of the Lord— the celestial and the spiritual, from which illustration proceeds, 4237. See Jacob (8). f » MAID-SERVANT. See Handmaid, Servant. MAKE, OR DO, to [facere]. To create, to form, and to make, signifies to regenerate, but each expression with a difference, 16, 88, 472. To create is to regenerate man so that he becomes spiritual ; to make IS to perfect him, so that he becomes celestial, 472. Made or done implies a new state, 4979. See Came to Pass. The phrase, they did so, denotes effect, 5951. Similar expressions applied to l^od denote Providence, 5264, 5503; in such a case also they denote order, 6573. To do or to make is predicated of the will, as to know 644 MAN MAN 645 Ii!i|l1«^ El '1 h and believe of the understanding, 9282. See to Do. To make signi- fies to cause to exist ; to bear (understand, to bear up or sustain in a right position) to cause to subsist ; to carry (or cherish as an infant) to cause that it may perpetually exist, ah. 9737. MALE \_masculus~\. In the most ancient church, the understand- ing of the spiritual man was called male, the will female, and their conjunction a marriage, 54. The male or male man [vir] denotes the understanding and also the things of faith ; the female denotes the will and also the things of love, 476. The male denotes truth ; female, good ; and their marriage pervades all things in man, 6G9 — 672, 725. Male and female do not denote the marriage union, but man and wife, 725. Male and female is predicated of birds, man and wife of beasts, 749. By male in general is denoted truth; by female, good, 4005. Male denotes the truth of faith, 2046, 2101; thus also the faith of charity, ill. 7838. The uncircumcised male, denotes such as are not in the truth of faith, 2056. Images of males among the abominations of Jerusalem, denote falses appearing as truths, 2466 ; or appearances and similitudes of truth, 8904. Every male to be circumcised denotes the truth of faith to be purified of defiled loves, 8009 and citations. Every male to appear three times in the year before the faces of the Lord Jehovah, denotes the continual appearance and presence of the Lord in the truth of faith, ill. 9297, 10,672. The firstling males, whether of ox or sheep, to be Jehovah* s, denotes truth attributed to the Lord, by which alone good whether internal or external can be re- ceived from him, 10,661 — 10,662. MALICE [fnalitia]. The hell of the most malicious is situated deep beneath the heel, somewhat backwards ; their quality and state shown 4951. Some malicious in a less degree, sit and consult together as in a chamber in the mid distance, 4951 end. A class of most ma- licious spirits described, who inhabit a deep hell towards the left ; that they deceive by assuming an appearance of authority and love of justice in their discourse, 5721. MALIGNITY. The malignity of evil spirits, ill, 761, 8593, 8625. By the wicked in the internal sense is meant malignity in the abstract, how it persuades and leads, 9249. Malignant in aspect, denotes of such a quality that goods and truths cannot be conjoined, 5258. MAMRE. See Hebron, Aner. MAN. 1 . The Characteristics from which He is Named, In the most ancient church the Lord alone was called man ; and themselves men so far only as they received from him, 49, see below 5302. In course of time every one of the church, whatsoever his quality, was called man, and at length whosoever appeared like a man in body, to distinguish him from beasts, 288; see below, 477, 565, 714. Man is so called when he has received the seed of faith, 368 end. The Lord himself is alone man ; the celestial church is called man because in his likeness; the spiritual church is called man because in his image; and all others from their possession of a human understanding, 477. The most ancient or celestial church was called man from the Lord, and all others from the church ; but they are only so far men as any- thing of the Lord remains with them ; otherwise they are the vilest of brutes, 565. Man is worse than brute animals because not in the pro- per order for which he was created, 637; see below 1902. Regarded in his own proprium, man is nothing but a beast, not differing there- from in any of his affections; that he is man arises from his interior life, which is that of faith and love, and which no beast can have, ill, 714, 1594, 1894. The essential and life of man is his will, which re- gulates his whole quality, 1007. Man's internal life, which is charity, is the Hfe of the Lord, not m him but with him, ill. 1010. Man is not born into any exercise of life, but has all to learn, otherwise than the brute animals, ill. 1050; see below 1902. As to his interiors man is an image of heaven, and may be called a little heaven, 1733, 1900, 2997, 4240. Without the divine celestial and spiritual principles, which are of the Lord alone, there is nothing human in man, 1894; see below 2508. If man were not imbued with hereditary evil and order thus destroyed in him, he would be born into the full exercise of his rational and scientific faculties ; while now, he is miraculously made rational by an external way, ill. 1902. Man by birth is wholly evil, and all good is given by influx from heaven, such is the love of the child for its parents, nurses, &c., 1906. The intellectual, rational, and scientific in man are all conceived from the divine marriage of good and truth, 2508. Man is not born into any natural truth, much less into any spiritual truth, but must learn everything by the external way, ill. 3175. Man alone is born contrary to order, otherwise the marriage of good and truth would be born with him in the external man, ill, 3793. Man is distinguished from the brute animals by the conjunction of good and truth, and the providence of the Lord is especially con- cerned about efixjcting that conjunction, ill. 3951. The conjunction of good and truth in man is effected by the medium of spirits and angels with him, 4096. The spirits thus consociated with man, and con- joined by affection, suppose all things of the affection and thought of man to be their own, 4186. It is not from his form, his speech, or even his thought that man can properly be so called, but from good and truth, in which he can internally regard the divine, and become a sensible recipient thereof; this it is that distinguishes him from animals, 5302; see also 5114. Men and spirits are nothing else but their own truth and their own good ; thus man thinks from his truth and wills from his good, which is his very self, 10,298. 2. The Difference between a Celestial Man, a Spiritual Man, and a Bead Man, ill. 81. The celestial man, the spiritual man, and the na- tural man is each nourished with his appropriate foods, 56 — 59. The celestial man from perception acknowledges that he receives all and everything from the Lord; the spiritual man is in the knowledge of this from the Word ; the worldly and corporeal man neither acknowledges nor concedes this, but attributes all to himself, br. 123 ; more at large, 128. In the man of the most ancient church, and also in the celestial angels, the will and understanding make one; in the man of the spirit- ual church, the will is separated from the understanding by conscience, by which the Lord effects his regeneration, ill. 875, ill, 927. Illustra- tion of the difference between the celestial and spiritual relatively to the several heavens, 978, 4286. See Heaven (5). 3. The Natural Man, otherwise called the external man, is not as commonly supposed the corporeal part merely, but consists of the sci- entifics and affections, with all the faculties formed to their enjoyment, in the spirit itself, 1718,4659, 5884. The natural or external man 646 MAN MAN m can never be united to the internal except apparently by influx ; and its separation is caused by evil cupidities and false persuasions, 1577, 1587, 1594; see below (7), 3928, 5368, 7424; and see External (2), Natural. 4. The Rational Man, otherwise called the interior man, is the mid- dle between the external and internal ; hence it communicates with the internal and is appropriated to it when man admits the influx of good and truth, 1702, 1707, 1732, 1889. The rational mind is in a dis- crete degree above the natural, and takes cognizance of things which cannot be brought to the perception of the latter, 3020. The intellec- tual, the rational, and the scientific are all distinct from each other ; intellectual truth is of the Lord, not of man ; rational truth is its ap- propriation and first appearance as man's ; and the scientific is its ex- ternal recipient, or the form of truth in the memory, 1904. See Rea- son, Understanding. 5. The Difference between the Corporeal, Natural, and Rational Parts of Man, their communication &c., ill. 4038. The man who is sen- sual and corporeal cannot be rational and spiritual, for such a man thinks only falses and wills only evils, 6971. They become merely sensual and corporeal who have known spiritual things and rejected them, 6971. 6. The Intellectual Part of Man, is distinguished as rational and natural ; the former pertaining to the internal man, the latter to the ex- ternal, ill. 6240. See Understanding, Reason. 7. The External Man and Internal Man, are distinguished from each other as earth from heaven, and are so called, 24, 82 ; but particularly 978, 1733. The internal man from his creation is formed to an image of heaven, and the external to an image of the world, 3628, 4523, 4524, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9706, 10,156, 10,472. With the insincere and unjust thtf internal man is formed to an image of hell, and the external to an image of heaven subordinated to hell, because good is hypocritically simulated, 9283 ; hence how many are discerned to be mere devils who appear as angels in the world, 7046. It is the rational or internal man which thinks, not the natural or external, for the in- ternal man is in the light of heaven in which is intelligence and wisdom from the Lord, 3679 and citations, 4963, 5114. The internal man is of the Lord alone, the interior is the rational part, the external in- cludes the affections and scientifics of the memory, 1015: the diff'er- ence further ill. 1594, 1702; and that it is by the internal, strictly so called, that man is conjoined to the Lord, 1999. The internal man is so distinct from the external that before regeneration it is not known to man, ill, and sh. 24. The internal and external can never be united in man, but they were united in the Lord, ill. 1577; why they are disunited, 1594, and in what respect there is any parallelism and cor- respondence between the Lord and man, 1831, 1832. There are affec- tions of the external man which correspond, and such as do not cor- respond with the internal, 1563, 1568, 3349. The external man is reduced to concordance with the internal -by temptations, and until this takes place celestial angels cannot be with man in his corporeal and worldly delights, ill. 3928. The internal man is in heaven, the external in the world, and the latter ought to obey the former ; that it obeys when heaven is preferred to the world and the neighbour to self, 5368, 10,471, 5786; add to which, on the subjection of sensuals, 5128, 647 and on the subjection of the external man generally, 9278. The ex- ternal man is not really man, until it is rendered obedient to the in- ternal, 7424. Seriatim passages concerning the general doctrine of the mternal and external man, 9701—9709, 9796—9803. That man cannot be sanctified by external things, because it is only by the truths of faith and the good of love that the interiors can be aff'ected, 10 069 That the internal in man is his heaven, the external his world' 10*4 11 ' See Internal (3), External (2).

See Sphere. 12. Connection with Spirits and Angels. Man is so much viler than the brutes that if he were not conjoined with the Lord by heaven and the world of spirits, the human race would perish, 637. There are attendant on every man, at least two evil spirits and two angels, 697 ; see below, 5848, 5850, 5977. Men as to their souls have a specific situation in the Lord's kingdom, and are continually bound to some society of spirits and angels, 1277 ; see below 2379. Evil spirits can do nothing to man except from permission of the Lord, and angels can avert nothing except by power from the Lord, 1664. Angels and good spirits continually avert from man the evil intended by infernal spirits, 1752 and citations. The man who is principled in good is in society with angels as to his soul even while he lives in the body, thus he is in heaven although ignorant of it, 2379. All changes of state in man are changes of the societies of spirits and angels with him, and when spirits first come to man they believe all things of his affec- tion and thought to be their own, ill. 4067, 4096, 4186. From the situation and place of spirits, relatively to himself, and the manner in which they applied themselves, the author could know their quality and to what province of the Grand Man they belonged, 4403, more particu- larly stated 5171. Seriatim passages concerning the connection of angels and spirits with man, 5846 — 5866, 5976 — 5993. Order of the elucidation in these passages, and first, how all that man wills and thinks tlows-in from angels or from spirits, 5846. All life indeed is primarily from the Lord, and continually flows into all, men, spirits and angels, 5847, 5848. Two spirits from hell, and two angels from heaven are attendant on every man, and unless this communication were kept open he would instantly die, 5848, 5849, ill. 5854 ; see below 5977. If man were in order he would be the subject of common influx from heaven, but being out of order he is the subject of particular influx by individual angels and spirits, 5850. The spirits attendant on man are changed according to the state of his affections, 585 1 . "When spirits from hell come to man they are not in hell, but in the middle state called the world of spirits, and at the same time in man's loves ; while this continues they are not in any torment for they then experience the delights of their evil loves, 5852. When spirits come to man they instantly make his whole memory and all his persuasions their own, so that the man and the spirit act as one by conjunction, 5853, 5857, 5859, 5860. Whatever spirits think and speak from the memory of man they imagine to be in themselves ; hence they are able to speak with man in any language known to him, &c., 5853, 5858, and the passages there cited, 2476 — 2479. The influx of spirits is into the thoughts and voluntary resolves, that of angels into ends, and also by good spirits into his goods and truths, 5854. By means of angelic influx the Lord could remove even myriads of evil spirits from man, and bend him to good by omnipotent force; but it is an inviolable divine law that he should receive good and truth in freedom, 5854. The spirits attendant on man know every turn of his thought and affection ; how astonished the author was to discover that his thoughts were thus knowD^ 5855. It is difficult for man to believe that he is continually in consort with spirits as to his interiors, but when he comes into the other life it is most man^est, and the societies in which he has been are shown him, 5861 Evd spirits are not permitted to know that they are associated with man, for if they knew they would obsess his body and seek his destruction ; also, that the case of the author was an exception 5862-5864. The corporeal part of man appears to spirits as a black mass, but if he is in the good of faith as somewhat woody; this from experience, 5865. Two evil spirits attend on man because there are two distinct classes of spirits, namely, genii who acf upon the loves of the will, and spirits who act by the thou|hts for the ''%'-«"''Th ' "^' '^'^ ""Tb .^r^'^y^ ^^l^^^i^l «»d spiritual, 5977 --.>9/8. They are deceived who believe that only angels are nea; them If they are m faith for in reality the angels remove to a distance from all who are m any love of self and the world, 5979. It is bTthe ass^ ciation of evd spirits and angels with him, 'that man is preserved Tn equilibrium or freedom between good and evil, 5982. Thrrjels and spirits attendant on man are the subject spirits of societies, and are the mediums by whom he communicates with heaven or hell 5983 Very many spirits at the present day endeavour to flow into the speech and actions of men and thus obsess their bodies, which is contrary to order, the influx of thought and aff-ection into the corporeal parts^^^^^ governed by common influx, 5990. The situation of evd genii S man is at the back, that of evil spirits at the sides and in Ion and that of angels near the head, 5977, 5992. The heavens are within one another in the order of the human interiors, and their ulrimate resting place is in man, 9216. See Influx (8), Heaven (9), Sp h't 13.

See Idea, Thoughts. How wonderfully the soul forms the body in the womb, its interiors also iu the image of heaven, manifesting that all life is from the Lord, 6468. The influx of the Lord is into the exteriors as well as the interiors of man, and this both immediately from himself and mediately by heaven ; thus the Lord himself governs man in ultimates as well as in principiates, 6472, 64/3, 6495. All the interiors come to their rest in ultimates, by which they are held together in order and connection ; these ultimates in man are all his sensual faculties, ill 9216. It is from the love or end of man's life, that his thought and finally his speech flows, ill, 9407. See Influx (9), Life (4). 14. Man's Spirit. However great the material distance interposed between men, they might converse together if in the spirit, 1277 ; see below, 2625. The spirit or soul is not the internal, but the interior man which lives after death, and is an organized form adjoined to the body, 1594; the latter particularly, 3726; see below, 2997, 4051. The ideas of man in the body are very obscure compared with what they become in the spirit, 2367. The spirit recently departed from the body retains its natural idea of space and time, which consequently appear somewhat real in the world of spirits ; it is at length perceived, however, that there is no such thing as space ar.d time to the spirit, but in place of them, states, 2625. The spiritual or internal man, which is his spirit or soul, corresponds in all things to the natural or external man, and is united therewith by influx, 2997, 3001. Spirits and angels are men, and man is man from intelligence and wisdom, ill. 4051 . In the other life angels, spirits, and men, appear like men so far as they are in order or in good; but so far as spirits are not in good they appear like monsters, 4839, 5302; see below, 6605. The spirit is the man himself that lives in the body, and after his separation therefrom by death, appears as a man from head to foot, and possesses all the faculties of a man, 5883. Angels are beautiful according to their reception of good and truth from the Lord, and infernal spirits the contrary; the individuals also are only lesser images in each case of the whole society to which they be- long, and these again of the. whole heaven or the whole hell, 6605, 6626 ; note here, the communication of thought and affection, or of good and truth with societies, 6605, 6599—6603, 6610; note also, that mala is in the least principles such as he is in the greatest, 6571. 6626. Angels appear in human forms, so far resplendent and beautiful as their good is qualified by truth, or so far as they receive divine truth in good, 8988, compare 10,177, 10,367. See Spirit, Life (11). 15. The Freedom of Many explained, how the free man lives from the Lord, and is led by angels and evil spirits, 2870—2893. Truth is never conjoined to good, but when man is in a state of freedom, ill. 31 58. The Lord inspires the will itself of man with good, but it comes to man's perception as his own, and he is thus enabled to act from freedom, 8988. See Liberty. 16.

What- MAN 651 ever be the appearance of man in externals, he is really an angel or a devil according to his love and his life therefrom ; the life's love indeed really forms the whole man, not only his organical principles' but his whole body, 6872, 10,153 The quality of ^the lov^, coTseqiently o^ he man, is known from the end regarded by him, and is either the love of self and the world, or the love of the Lord and the neighbour 3796, 10,284 The love is not only the all of man's will, Ko of a:fd mu^s';?^^ "" ""'""^"^ '^^^ ^"^^ ^^^ understanding 17.

It is the means, however, by which truth can be insinu- ated, whereby the natural man can be regenerated, 34/0, 6om, 35 1», 25 The New Man formed by Regeneration, illustrated by the growth of seeds, the scientifics and truths of the external being as fibres, by which the juice is carried more interiorly, &c., 9258.

If he were not guarded by the Lord from moment to moment, man would inevitably perish, such is the prevailing hatred against all things of faith and love in the world of spirits, 59. See Lord (11, 14), Heaven (9), Conjunction. . . 32. The Grand Man. The heavens consist of innumerable societies, and all these societies taken together are as one man, 684. The order in heaven is such, that the Lord governs the whole as one man, for which reason heaven is called the Grand Man ; the same order prevails with every one who is in heaven, 911. All things in man correspond to the Grand Man of heaven, and the situation of all in heaven is accordmg to the presence and aspect of the Lord, 12/6. Heaven is called the Grand Man, because the Lord there is all in all, 1894. Man is called heaven, because he becomes a little heaven by regeneration, 1900. They who are in the Grand Man, including all in heaven, and all in the world, however widely scattered, make one body, 2853, 92/6 and citations. All the societies of heaven belong to various provinces referable to the body, so that the universal heaven is one man; also, all the angels are in the Lord, because in good and truth which proceed from him, 2996 — 2998. All parts of the body correspond to celestial and spiritual things in the Grand Man, which is heaven, 3021. The Grand Man is from the influx of the life of the Lord, who is the only man, and hence we derive by influx all that is celestial and spiritual ; see the fol- lowing collection of passages, and besides them, 6626, 6982, 6985, 6993, 6996, 9144 and citations, 10,196. Seriatim passages showing that heaven corresponds to the Lord, and man as to all and singular things to heaven, 362A-^3649, 3741—3746, 3883—3896, 4039—4055, 4218—4228, 4318—4331, 4403—4421, 4523—4533, 4622—4633, 4652-4660, 4791—4805, 4931—4953, 5050—5061, 5171—5189, 5377—5396, 5552—5573, 5711—5727, 10,030. Order of the elu- cidation in these passages : and first, that this doctrine of the corres- pondence between heaven and the human form is a great mystery now revealed for the first time, 3624. It is well known in the other life to angels and spirits, even to the evil : the angels indeed from celestial order know all things in man, not only the structure and use of his organs, but things that exceed the capacity of man to comprehend, 3626. One thing exists and subsists by another, and is connected by things prior with the first throughout nature ; so the human body by the influx of the Grand Man, 3627, 3628. Unless such a correspon- dence of man with heaven, and by heaven with the Lord, existed, he could not subsist one moment, 3628. All forms whatsoever, subsist in virtue of two forces acting respectively from without and from within ; the forces from without are not living, but those which react against them from within are alive, and they correspond to each other, 3628. It is by the influx of spiritual forces into the organical forms of the body that the latter exhibits its living operations, 3629. There is not only a common influx from heaven to man, but an influx of particular societies, 3629. Each particular organ and member is in correspon- dence with several societies of heaven, and the more numerous they are in any case, so much the more powerful, 3629. The eff^ects caused MAN 655 by celestial and spiritual influx appear to man as merely natural, because they are only seen where divine order finishes, 3630; see below, 3632. The author was convinced by experimental evidence how societies act by influx, by the efiigy of a face variously formed, &c., 3631. It re- sults from the doctrine of correspondence that heaven is immense, and can never be closed ; for all in heaven are organs or members of the Grand Man, and the more numerous they are, the stronger is the force and action, 3631. The gestures, actions, looks of the face, speech, external sensations and their delights, are the extremes of order in which the influx of heaven is finished; the looks, sensations, and pleasures, however, which flow-in are not the same in their own internal form ; illustrated by the will flowing into actions, and the thought into words, 3632. The very inmost of man is such that it conspires to the human form, hence spirits and angels appear in every respect as men, 3633. Man is strictly in correspondence with heaven, and acts as one with the angels when he is principled in love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour; he is then a little heaven, 3634. There are two fountains or springs of all external action and sensation, namely, the heart and lungs ; the heart corresponds to things celestial, the lungs to things spiritual, 3635. The most universal principle of correspondence is this truth, that the Lord is the sun of heaven, and that from this sun is light in which is intelligence, and heat in which is love ; all correspondences are derived from this as principal, 3636, 3643. In a supreme sense the Lord alone is the Grand Man, and he came into the world and made the human divine, and thereby restored order, that the whole heaven might correspond to him alone, 3637. They who are in heaven are in the Lord, yea, in his body; but the evil were rejected under his feet and are without the Grand Man, 3637, 3638. The societies of heaven constantly preserve one and the same situation in respect to an observer, in whatever direction he turns him- self; from this circumstance it is evident that heaven is a Grand Man and that it is so from the Lord, 3638, 3639. The hells hkewise have a constant situation under the soles of the feet, and though evil spirits sometimes appear above the head and elsewhere it is from phantasy, 3640. All, whether in heaven or in hell appear to stand erect upon their feet ; but, really, they who are in heaven are situated with their heads towards the Lord, and they who are in hell the contrary way with their feet upwards ; hence may be understood how hell is preserved in unity with heaven, and how the order of its societies is maintained ; ill. by the thought and speech of angels which descended into hell, and was changed into the opposite, namely, good and truth into evil and false, 3641, 3642. The Lord is the sun and common centre of heaven, and every angel is a centre of influxes, by the celestial form, from all others, 3633, 3641. Every man, even while he lives in the body, has a situation either in the Grand Man, or without it, in hell : the former, so far as the heart's desire to do well rules the actions; the latter, so far as the contrary, 3644, 3645. The influx and correspondence of the Grand Man also extends to beasts, but its operation is diverse according to the forms of their souls, and of their bodies resulting therefrom ; various particulars on this subject, 3646; and concerning the state of certain spirits who had lived like beasts, 3647. The influx of the Lord, by heaven, extends again to all the subjects of the vegetable VOL II. Q !? 656 MAN MAN kingdom ; hence it is that universal nature is a theatre, representative of the Lord's kingdom, 3648. — All in heaven or the Grand Man are suhstances formed according to their reception of the divine in each case, and the divine flowing-in makes the celestial and spiritual with them; the case is similar with the material body, but more grossly, 3741. Angels manifestly perceive the influx of life from the Lord, and they enjoy felicity according to the fullness of reception ; the same life is received by evil spirits, but is always varied according to forms, 3743. The varieties in the Grand Man, according to the reception of hfe from the Lord are innumerable; and are altogether in the ratio in which are the organs, members, and viscera of the human body, 3744, 3745. All these varieties have reference to certain general classifications, as those of the head, of the breast, of the members of generation, and in each case to the interiors and exteriors of such parts, 3746; see below, 5328. The Grand Man forms three heavens, corresponding to which are three degrees of life in man ; how ignorant the learned are of these truths, 3747 — 3749. All the societies of heaven are comprised in two kingdoms, the celestial and spiritual ; which respectively correspond to the kingdom of the heart and that of the lungs in the body ; the motion of the latter is also derived from the influx of the former, or the com- mon respiration of the heavenly societies, 3884 — 3890, 9276 and cita- tions : for the particulars, see Heart. Every individual angel and spirit respires like man, the various societies in consort, and the whole heaven as one man, 3891. They who are in evils and falses cannot be in the Grand Man, because there is no harmony of respiration, on which account, when they approach heaven, they lose all power of action, 3893 — 3895; see below, 4225. The celestial form, which is stupendous, is impressed more especially on the brain, which is or- ganised according to the fluxion of heaven, 4040, 4041. In virtue of this form man is an image of the three heavens, and by him alone there is descent from the heavens into the world, and ascent from the world into heaven, 4042, ill. 3702. Such is the correspondence of the brain with the Grand Man, that those who are in the principles of good correspond to the cortical substances or glands, and those who are in the principles of truth, to the fibres raying out from them ; with this diff'erence however, that those who are in the will of good corre- spond to the right part of the brain, and those who are in the will of truth to the left part, 4052. The correspondence between the Grand Man and the organs is not general merely, but extends to all their parts and most particular constituents, 4222. Such correspondence is pri- marily with the functions of the organs, and by consequence with the organical vessels, because the functions and the parts act as one, 4223, 4224. It is not only with the visible organical forms, but with the invisible by which the internal senses and aff'ections operate ; to these forms the interior heavens correspond, 4224. Those who are not in the Grand Man correspond to impurities and diseases of the body; such are they who are in the love of self and the world, 4225. Situa- tion in the Grand Man is not situation but state, and this according to the quality and* the state of truth and good, 4321. Man is continually held in correspondence with heaven by the Lord, 4323. Having ex- plained the correspondence of the heart and lungs, and of the brain with the Grand Man, the author next treats of the correspondence of 657 the senses, 4324; of the senses in eeneral 4S2'i-^dqqn. ^^♦i, light, 4403—4420 4523--4^V'?. ^?

See Government, Society. 38. That there are Men in Other Worlds. It is well known in the other life that there are many inhabited earths ; and the author also has spoken with spirits and angels who had hved on other earths as men, 6695. There are not only other inhabited earths in our own system, but an immense number throughout the universe, 6696; argu- ments 6697—6698. There must be other inhabited earths to com- pletely constitute the Grand Man ; the number from this planet being few comparatively, 6807. See Universe. 39. Man and the Word. The Word when read appears before the Lord as the image of a man, by which all heaven in its complex is represented, not such as it is, but such as the Lord wills it should be, 1871. The Word in the letter is for man, in the proximate sense it is for the angels of the lowest heaven, in its internal sense for the second or spiritual heaven, and in its supreme sense for the third or celestial heaven ; how the sense is elevated as it ascends, 4279. The corre- spondence between the internal and the external sense of the Word is similar to that between the ideas of men and the ideas of angels, 3131, 3349 : ill. by the case of the holy supper, 3464 ; seriatim passages, 5846—5866, 5976—5993. Heaven is eternally and inseparably con- nected with the human race by means of the Word ; by which the minds of men and angels are conjoined in so strict a bond that they act as one, 9216. Heaven is in the enjoyment of its wisdom from the Word when it is read by man, and man at the same time is thus brought into conjunction with heaven ; without such conjunction the human race would perish, 10,452. See Word. 40. The Man of the Church, is the author's expression for the church itself and whatever is predicable thereof, as comprehended in the names Adam, Noah, Judah, 7^'^. In every man of the church there is the internal of the church and the external ; the internal is where the true church exists, the external is its derivative, 768 ; see below, 7840. The Lord is alone man, and the all in all in his kingdom ; by man, therefore, is signified love or charity from him, which is the all of the church, 768. The man of the most ancient or celestial church is denoted by Adam, 339, 477—478, 597, 608, 1114—1125. The man of the ancient or spiritual church is denoted by Noah, 915. The men of the ancient church are described in three classes by the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham and Japhet; their respective characters, 1062, 1091, 1126, —1128, 1238, 1327. The man of the church is a heaven in the least form, hisinteriors being disposed according to the image of heaven in the greatest, and to the reception of heaven, 911, 978, 1900, 1928, 3624—3631, 3634, 3637, 3884, 4041, 4279, 4523, 4524, 4625, 6013, 6057, 9279, 9594, 9632. The church is a collective term designating the congregated body of individuals each of whom is a church in par- ticular; in brief, man himself is the church, 4292. The church of the Lord otherwise called the communion of those who are principled in love to him and charity towards the neighbour, consists of all the good however widely they may be scattered throughout the whole world, aud whether in the church, so called, or out of it, 7396. The men of the church are internal or external ; internal, whose good is qualified by obedient, 784oT£rv on^e who^rU'"'''''.

Men of a city denotes truths, or truths of doctrine ; inhabitants of a city, goods, or the good of doctrine, 3066, 4478. Man is predicated of the understanding ac- cording to the subject, generally, it denotes intelligence and truth, 3134. Man denotes natural truth, servant, natural good, 3191—3192. A knowing man is predicated of the affection of truth, or of those who are in such affection ; a man of the field denotes the good of life from doctrinals, 3309— 3310. Man denotes truth ; brother, good; a man with a brother, the good of truth, 3459, 7716 and citations. Man, and also son of man, denote truth; when called homo, good, 4287 end. When man and wife are named, man denotes truth or the false, and wife good or evil, only in the latter case she is not called his wife but his woman : when however husband and wife are mentioned, husband denotes good or evil, and wife truth or the false ; the reason is, because in the celestial church the husband was in good and the wife in the truth of that good, but in the spiritual church the man is in truth and the wife in the good of that truth ; this expresses what actually is in each case, for the interiors are thus bent or formed, 4823, 4843; compare 5946 ; and see Woman. Men of the house denotes the truths of good, in the opposite sense the falses of evil, 5011. Man of understanding is truth, man of wisdom good, 5287. A man saying to a brother denotes common perception, 5498. Man, and the title of lordship, denotes the spiritual conjoined with the celestial, 5510, 5518. Man denotes the spiritual principle, or truth flowing in from the in- ternal, 5584, 5591. Man over the house (meaning a steward or cham- berlain) denotes the truth or doctrinal of the church, 5652. Egyptian men denotes scientifics, 5871. A mans servant denotes the natural man ministering to the spiritual, 7998. Men of stoutness denotes truths strong and powerful from the conjunction of good, 8710, 8725 ; compare 6086, 6087. Servants or men denotes those who are in the science of truth and good ; maid servants or women, those who are in the affection of truth and good, 8994. When man occurs in the Word the angels do not perceive person, but the intellectual faculty from which he is man, and when called homo the voluntary faculty ; hence these terms denote respectively the understanding or truth (vir), and the will or good (homo), 9007. When man and servant, or man and companion, are mentioned, they do not denote two persons, but the things signified in one, 9058, 9149. When by man one of the sons of Israel is understood, it denotes one who is in spiritual truth, thus, who is of the church, 9034. Man is the truth of faith, woman the good of faith, 9065. Man and neighbour denote truth, and good with which truth is conjoined, 10,555. The expressions, a man to his brother, a man to his neighbour, &c., denote mutually, or the conjunction of truth and Mkl good, 4725, 5468, 10,555.

The affection or desire of truth for the sake of life is the affection of conjunction which produces the heavenly marriage, ill. 9206. The conjunction of good and truth is represented in the Word by two conjugial partners, and also by two brothers ; by the former when derivative goods and truths are implied, by the latter when the ministerial functions of judgment and worship are understood, ill, 9806 ; see above, 2173. See Conjunction, Initiation, Good, Truth. , ,.i. /.i 14. The Marriage of Charity and Faith, produces the life of heaven in man, neither of which alone are adequate to that effect, ill. 7022. Unless charity be united to faith, the latter will either be dissipated or conjoined to evil, which conjunction is profane, ill, 6348. They who are in the good of charity and the corresponding truth of faith are men of the internal church, and such only are free, 8974. Spiritual good cannot be conjoined to those who are in the truths of faith alone, and are not at the same time principled in good, or in the heavenly life, 8981,8987. . ,. . i 15. The Marriage of Evil and the False, takes place in the natural man when the good of infancy and of early boyhood is indrawn, 3793. The evil and false are conjoined in an infernal marriage opposed to the heavenly marriage of good and truth, and this marriage appears in the Word, 5138, 9188. The Jews were in the impure marriage of evd and the false, and hence they could not be in any conjugial love, 8809. Evils and falses must be removed by temptation before any one can come into the marriage of good and truth, 8888. How the conception of the false is prevented by the marriage of good and truth, 3665. 16. The Marriage of the Will and Understanding. In the most ancient times the understanding of the spiritual man was called male, and the will female; and their acting together as one was called a mar- riage, 54. Whatever of good proceeded from the marriage of the will and understanding was called fructification, whatever of truth, multi- phcation ; also by fructifications was understood daughters, by multipli- cations, sons; and of such quality as are the will and understanding such are the sons and daughters, 55, 568. The marriage of man and wife actually resembles that of the understanding and the will; for the man is so formed that the understanding rules, but the woman so that the will or cupidity rules; such is the respective disposition of their fibres, and such their nature, 568. In the minutest things of thought and affec- tion, and even in the organical parts of the body there is a marriage as of will and understanding, 718, ill. 917, 1432. The marriage of will and understanding causes the resemblance of a marriage in all things MAR 685 as male and female, 749. voluntary, which are discriminated 17.

See Fitches. ^ MIND [mens-]. The two parts of the Mind, The two faculties of will and understanding ought to constitute one tnind and one lite, mu they are separated, 35. The will and understanding constituted one mind in the most ancient people, from the seed of celestial love which alone gave them the perception of truth, 310. The will and under- standing are interior and exterior, or rational and natural, 6^/6. ine will and understanding become one when the truth of the mind nows from its good, 3623. The will and understanding are one when man thinks and speaks as he reallv wills and acts, ill. 4574. Ihe separa- tion of the will from the understanding has caused an alteration in me distribution of the nerves, which is described, 4327, 8250. The volun- tary and the intellectual parts taken together are called the mind, and they constitute the verimost life of man, thus, the man himselt, t^^ 5302, 6158, 7848. The life of the will is spiritual heat, the life ot the understanding spiritual Hght, ill. 6032. The will and understanding predicated of the exterior mind, good and truth of the interior, oi do. The will is formed to receive the good of love, the understanding to receive the truth of faith, and these together should constitute one mind; in like manner evil and the false with infernals, 7179. Witn those who are in truth and at the same time in evils of life, or m taise principles and apparently in the good of life, the will and understanding So not make one mind, 7179. [Eventually], man is not allowed to divide his mind and draw asunder these two faculties, tJ"t//^e.^^l;,*JJf understanding make one either in the Ufe of heaven or of hell, 7l»u, 8250. See Miracle (1), Will, Understanding, Man, Life, in- flux (5). . , J. J. L-u 2. Goods and Truths in the Mind. The human mind as to truths is called a city, and the goods that live in the truths are called inha- bitants, 2268. Truths in the memory or in the thoughts without goods, are like a city without inhabitants, 2268. It is the rational mind that is compared to a city, from the goods and truths therein, 2851. The union of good with truth makes one mind, and the provi- dence of the Lord is particularly operative to effect such union, 3623, 395 1 . Goods are proper to the will, truths to the understanding, 4574. The natural mind as to good is called a house, and truth (represented by a man, &c.) is in its house when conjoined to good, ill. ^^\^//^V^^ natural mind and the rational mind are equally a house, m which the husband is good, the wife truth, the sons and daughters affections ot good and truth, maid-servants pleasures, and men-servants scientifics, 5023. Goods and truths in the interiors of the mind are really its tood, without which man would perish, 5302 end. See Man (23). The ancients compared the mind to a house, its interiors to the vanous chambers, its exteriors to courts, and things without, but coherent, to porches, 7353. The will is more especially signified by a house, because the will is the subject or faculty of good, 7848. See Good, Truth, Influx (3), House, Field, Ground. , mi ^- i 3. The Mind distinguished as Rational and Natural. Ihe rational mind is in the midst, between the influx of good and truth on the one hand, and of evil and false on the other, ill. 2851 . The rational mind is open above to goods and truths which flow-in from heaven, and below to evU and the false which flow-in from hell, 2851 .

His hand not put on the separated sons of Israel, denotes those who are in the external separate from the internal without the power of truth, 9409—9410, 9421. They saw God, and they ate and drank, denotes faith, and therewith the con- junction and appropriation of good and truth, 9411—9412. Moses commanded to ascend alone into the mountain, and be there, denotes the presence of the Lord by the holy external of the Word as a niedium, 9414 9415. Moses and his minister Joshua now said to arise, de- notes the holy external of the Word and its ministering representative, which mediate between the Lord and those who are in externals, 9419. Moses (alone) going into the mountain of God, denotes the holy exter- nal which ascends to heaven, 9420, 9426. The elders to remain below, and Aaron and Hur with them, denotes those who are in the external sense only, and the doctrine of truth from the Word with such, 9421 9423, 9424. A cloud covering the mount, and the glory of Jehovah upon it, denotes the divine interiors of the Word in heaven, and its obscurity in ultimates, 9429—9430. The cloud covering the moun- tain six days, and Moses called up on the seventh, denotes the state of labor and combat when in truth only, and the state when truth is con- joined with good, 9431—9432. The glory of Jehovah seen by the sons of Israel, &c., denotes divine truth in heaven resplendent from the t'ood of love, but appearing to those in externals like a consuming fire, 9434. Moses entering into the midst of the cloud, and ascending into the mountain, denotes the degrees by which the holy external of the Word is elevated to heaven, 9435—9436. In the mountain forty days and forty nights, denott's a plenary state as to information and influx, 9437. The instructions given to Moses in the forty days (chap. xxv. xxxi. inclusive), denote all that constitutes heaven and the church, thus the all of mediation between the Lord and man by the representa- tives of the Word; summaries of each chapter, 9455, 9592, 9710 — 9712, 9804, 9985, 10,175J, 10,326.

The people seeing that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, denotes no apperception of the influx of divine truth from heaven by the Word, 10,396. The people gathering together to Aaron and demanding that he should make gods, denotes their state in the externals of the Word, of the church, and of worship, and falses of doctrine, 10,397-10,399. This Moses, that man who made us to come up from the land of Egypt, we know not what has happened to him, denotes the state of doubt and denial in jnn "Vu "*^'i> "^^.^^ T"" *' ^^"^^^^^ ^° internals, is anything, 1U,4U0. Ihe golden calf fashioned, denotes worship from self-intelli- gence according to the delight of the external loves, 10,406, 10,407 Moses commanded to go down, and his deprecating the wrath of Jeho- vah, denotes intuition into the state of the external averted from the divine and mercy 10,418-10,420, 10,433, 10,441, 10,448. Moses descending from the mountain, and the two tables of the testimony in his hand, denotes the Word sent down from heaven, 10,450—10,451 Ihe noise of the people shouting heard by Joshua, and called by him the voice of war in the camp, denotes the apperception of their interior state when explored by truth from the Word, and evils and falses seen in opposition to goods and truths, 10,454—10,455. Not the cry of vic- tory, nor of those that are overcome, but the voice of a miserable cry. denotes the lamentable state of their interiors, 10,456—10,457. Draw- ing near the camp, and the calf and the dancing provoking the wrath of Moses, denotes hell and infernal worship, whence aversion from the divine, 10,4o8-10,460. Moses casting the tables from his hand, and breaking them beneath the mountain, denotes the external sense of the Word changed, and another given for the sake of that nation, 10,461. His burning the calf with fire, and reducing it to powder, denotes the love of self and the world, and falses from infernal delight manifested in their worship, 10,462—10,464. His sprinkling the powder upon the faces of the waters, and the sons of Israel drinking thereof, denotes that such falses were mixed together with truths and thus appropriated by that nation, 10,465—10,466. Moses seeing the people to be disso- lute or naked, and then stationing himself in the gate of the camp, denotes the state of the external deprived of the goods and truths of taith, and the internal not received, 10,479, 10,483. The sons of Levi gathering together to Moses and every man of them commanded to put his sword upon his thigh, denotes those who were in truths from good communicating with the internal and hence combating the false from evil, 10,485, 10,488. Their passing from gate to gate in the camp and slaying the people, denotes the closing of the influx of truth and good To 4*89— 10 ''^ ^^^ *" opening between the internal and external, 25. The altered conditions of the journey and Renewal of the Tables (chap. xxxu. ver. 30-35; xxxiii.— xxxiv.) The mediation of Moses ll H i 742 MOS between Jehovah and the people, denotes the provision now miraculously made by which those in externals only could communicate with heaven, and the Jewish nation permitted to represent the church, though it could not be a church, 10,500, 10,507. Moses commanded to lead on the people, who are called stitF-necked, denotes instruction concerning the church now to be represented, and no receptivity of divine influx, 10,523,10,525—10,526, 10,532, 10,537—10,540. The people com- manded to strip off their ornaments by Mount Horeb, denotes the deprivation of divine truth in externals, 10,536, 10,540, 10,542— 10,543. Moses pitching the tent far away from the camp, and the people going out from the camp to inquire of Jehovah, denotes the external of the Word, of the church, and of worship, remote from the internal, 10,546, 10,548. The people standing at the entrance of their own tents aud looking after Moses when he entered the tent of the con- gregation, denotes that they only saw the externals of the Word, of the church, and of worship, 10,549 — 10,550. A cloud at the gate of the tent when Moses had entered, denotes the obscurity in externals as the Word vanished from their understandings, 10,551, 10,552. Every man bowing himself at the door of his tent, denotes their idolatrous worship of the external in which they were, 10,553. Jehovah's speak- ing face to face with Moses as a man to his neighbour, denotes con- junction in the divine interiors of the Word, which is that of good and truth, 10,554 — 10,555. The discourse between Moses and Jehovah (ver. 12 — 17), denotes that the divine could be in their worship such as it is in itself separated from them, 10,523, 10,558 and following numbers; particularly, 10,571. Moses entreating to see the glory of Jehovah, first denotes the genuine external of the Word, of the church, and of worship, afterwards the external in which that people were, 10,574, 10,578. Put in a fissure of the rock and seeing only the back parts of Jehovah, denotes the obscure and false state in which the Israelites were as to faith, and only the externals of the Word of the church, and of worship seen by them, 10,582, 10,584. Moses com- manded to hew out two tables of stone, upon which Jehovah would write the same words that were on the former, denotes the new external of the Word, but the celestial and spiritual interiors the same as before, 10,603 — 10,604, 10,613. Moses to ascend Mount Sinai in the morn- ing, denotes the beginning of the new revelation of divine truth, 10,605, 10,611. Not any one to ascend with him, or be seen in the whole mountain, denotes the state of the Israelitish nation in externals utterly separated from internals, 10,607 — 10,608. Neither flock nor herd permitted to feed in the neighbourhood of the mountain, denotes their inability to be instructed in any good of the church interior or exterior, 10,609. Jehovah descending in the cloud and standing with Moses, denotes the external of the Word in which the divine is, 10,614. Moses hasting and bowing himself to the earth, &c., denotes the recep- tion and influx into the external represented by him though not with the Israelitish people, 10,625 — 10,628. A covenant made by Jehovah and his promise to do marvels, denotes the conjunction of heaven and man by the Word, and its divine contents, 10,632 — 10,634. The duties recounted in terms of the covenant (chap, xxxiv. 10 — 27), denote primary truths by which those in external worship are conjoined with tiiose in internal, 10,599, 10,683.

Ihat Jehovah appeared to Moses, in a human form adequate to his reception, which was only external, 4299.

Rebecca called the mother of Jacob, denotes the affection of spiritual truth and ['• 74i MOU the church therefrom, 3583. Father denotes the church as to good, mother as to truth; in the opposite sense, the conjunction ot evil and the false, 3703, 5581. Mother denotes the church, sons the truths ol the church ; hence, to smite the mother upon the sons is to destroy all things of the church, 4257. Father denotes the Lord as to divine good, hence good itself; mother as to divine truth, hence truth itselt, 8»y7. By father is signified the Lord, by mother his uuiversal kingdom, thus the church, which is called his bride and wife, 8897. 8900. Father denotes interior good, mother truth adjoined with it, 9199. To honour father and mother is to love good and truth, thus, the Lord himseit from whom they proceed, and his kingdom in which they are, 3090, 3703, 8897—8900. Father, mother, brethren, and children, and other names of relationship, denote goods and truths ; in the opposite sense evils and falses, 3703, 10,490. In general, mother and wife denote the church when the internal and external are together ; passages cited, 10,402. See Marriage (13, 19, 21, 23) : as to the human from the mother in the doctrine of the Lord, see Lord (25); as to the sense in which he spoke to his mother and addressed his disciples concerning her, 2649. That man derives his internal, thus his soul or life from the' father ; his external from the mother, 1815, 2005. See Man. MOTION [motus], denotes change of state because there is no idea of space and time in the other life. 1273—1277, 1376-1382, 2837, 3356, 5605, 8397, 9440, 9927. See Place, Time. By a motion ot the earth, or earthquake, is meant a change in the state of the church, sh. 3355. All motion in natural things is from the spiritual world act- ing into the natural, ill, 5173. The motion of the muscles producing action, is from the endeavour of the thought and will, and that endea- vour ceasing, action ceases, 5173, 8911, 9293, 9473. Sensation and voluntary motion in the human body is conveyed by fibres from the cerebrum, 4325. The motions of the heart and lungs are from corres- pondence with the respiration of heaven or the Grand Man, ill. from experience, 3884. The heart and lungs are the two fountains of all corporeal motion and they correspond to the two kingdoms of heaven, celestial and spiritual, 3635. When the actions are one with the will, they are so many forms of the will presented visibly to the eye ; but when not in agreement with the will, they are only as the motions of an inanimate machine, 9293. Conatus or endeavour is internal motion, which in human actions is predicable of the will, ill. 9473. To move and to go, denotes to live ; hence, the dictum of the ancients, * In God we move, and live, and have our being,' denotes life in three degrees, external, internal, and inmost, 5605 end. The spirit of God moving itself upon the faces of the waters, denotes the mercy of the Lord pro- ceeding to regenerate man, 7, 19. The moving to and fro, or waving of the sheaf of first-fruits, denotes the vivification of truths by good, 9295. See to Shake. MOUNTAIN [mons]. 1. By a mountain in the most ancient times was understood the Lord, and all that is celestial from him, as the good of love and charity, sh. 795, 854, 1250, 1451, 4210, 6435, 6829, 6872, 7056, 8327. The most ancient people, and all the an- cients, even the Gentiles, worshipped on mountains from this origin, sh. 795, 796; see below, 2722. In the opposite sense mountain de- notes self-elation, thus the love of self; a hill, the love of the world, II MOU 745 795, 1687; sh. 1691. As the external sense of the Word ascends to the internal, the idea of a mountain first perishes and leaves the idea of altitude, then from altitude the idea passes to that of holiness, 1430, 6435 end. A mountain denotes love in every sense, celestial, spiritual, infernal; also good, because all good is referable to some love, 2460. So long as the ancient church was iu its simphcity, worship on moun- tains and in groves was holy, because by mountains and hills they un- derstood love and charity, and by leafy and fruit-bearing trees all that was spiritual therefrom, 2722; further ill. 4288. The most ancient people who lived before the flood, perceived the celestial and spiritual things of the Lord's kingdom from mountains, hills, plains, valleys, gardens, groves, &c., the ancients also worshipped in such places from a traditional knowledge of their signification, but in the time of the Jews such worship had become idolatrous and was prohibited, 2722, 4288, 6435. Mountain denotes the good of love, because what is interior ap- pears to man who thinks from space, as if it were high; it is thus heaven appears to him, also the Lord, who is called the Most High, 4210. A mountain denotes the good of celestial love; hill, the good of spiritual love; hills of an age (or everlasting hills), the good of mutual love, which is the good of the celestial church, ill. and sh. 6435. Mountain of God denotes the good of love, or the good of truth according to the subject; the former, 6829, 7056; the latter, 8658; see below, 9420. The mountain of Jehovah's inheritance denotes heaven where the good of love is, or the life of truth and good, 8327. Mount Sinai denotes good in which is truth, 8658 end. In the supreme sense. Mount Sinai denotes divine truth from divine good; in the internal sense, the truth of faith from good; but before the law was promulgated the truth of faith to be implanted in good, 8753. A mountain denotes divine celes- tial good, and hence the good of celestial love, 8758; in other words, divine good in heaven; heaven itself from good, 8761, 8795; the inmost heaven, 8797. Mount Sinai denotes heaven, also divine good united to divine truth there, 8805, 8818, 8819, 8822, 8826, 8916. Mount Sinai called the mountain of God, denotes the law or divine truth from the Lord, the Word as received in heaven, heaven itself from divine truth, passages cited, 9420. The summit of Mount Sinai denotes the inmost of the law or Word, hence the inmost of heaven; the mountain below the summit, the internal as received in heaven; the parts below the mountain where the elders and people remained, the external, 9422, 9434. See Horeb. Mountains denote the good of celestial love, hills the good of spiritual love, rocks the good of faith, and in each case the corresponding heaven or dwelling-places of angels and spirits; this from appearances in the other life, 10,438, 10,580, 10,608. The rocks upon which those who are in faith dwell in the other life appear of stone, but the mountains are elevations of the earth, 10,580. The more interior and perfect the angels are the higher they dwell in the mountains; while those not yet become angels dwell in the plains be- tween the rocks and mountains, and infernal spirits under them, 10,608. The cloudy and dark spheres which exhale from the evils and falses of infernal spirits also assume the appearance of mountains or rocks, under which they hide themselves, 4299, 8265; see the same numbers cited below. 2. Harmony of Passages. All the high mountains covered with h *» 746 MOU the waters of the flood (Gen. vii. 19), denotes that all the goods of charity were extinguished by falses and persuasions of the false, 79o.

They that remained flying to the mountains, after Abraham's victory in Siddim (Gen. xiv. 10), denotes the love of self and the world against which the Lord fought from his love for the whole human race, 1687, 1 690— 1691. Lot said to ascend from Zoar and dwell in the mountain (Gen. xix. 30), denotes the obscure good of those who are without the truths of faith, 2459— 2460.

Jacob sacri- ficing a sacrifice in the mountain (Gen. xxxi. 54), denotes worship from the good of love, 4210. The angel of Jehovah appearing to Moses in the Mount of God (Ex. iii. 2), denotes the divine human manifested in the good of love, 6829—6831. Ye shall worship God by this moun- tain, said to Moses (Ex. iii. 12), denotes the perception and acknow- ledgment of the Divine from love, 6872. Aaron meeting with Moses in the mount of God (Ex. iv. 27) denotes the conjunction of truth immediately from the divine and truth mediate in the good of love, 7056. Israel to be planted in the mountain of Jehovah's inheritance, (Ex. XV. 1 7), denotes regeneration, and heaven, from the life of truth and good, 8326—8327. The Israelites encamped at the mount of God (Ex. xviii. 5), denotes the new arrangement of truths when about to be conjoined with good in the second state of regeneration, 8658. Moses communicating with Jehovah in Mount Sinai (Ex. xix., &c.), denotes generally the revelation of divine truth or the Word from heaven, 9370. See Moses (19, 21, 23). Jehovah came from Sinai, he shone from Mount Paran (Deut. xxxiii. 2), denotes the procedure of divine truth, or the law, from divine good, 9420. Mount Ephraim called a wood, and given to Ephraim and Manasseh (Josh. xvii. 15, 18), denotes in- telligence, 1574.

Tearing the hair when they mourned, thus baldness, represented the deprivation of the intelligence of truth which causes spiritual grief, 9960. * MOUSE [mus]. The sordidly avaricious in the other life seem to 1« 748 MOU be infested by mice and similar things according to their kind of ava- rice, '938, 954. The sphere of the avaricious [Jews] smells hke the stench of mice, 1514,4628. . . ^ i j MOUTH [os-oruf]. In the heart denotes what is internal and proceeds from good; in the mouth what is external and proceeds from truth ; hence, venison in the mouth of Isaac, denotes the good of lite in natural affection, 3313. The mouth according to usage in the Word, is put for the voice, or enunciation, of which it is the organ ; the tongue for speech, of which it is the organ ; the difference between which is relatively the same as between hearing and perception, 698o, tU. 09»7. Moses called heavy in mouth and tongue, denotes that truth imme- diately from the divine cannot be heard or perceived; but Aaron called his mouth, and afterwards his prophet, denotes that it is accommodated to human understanding, 6985, 6998, 7004-7007, 7009, 7268 end, 7269—7270. The mouth and the Hps correspond to interior speech, which is active or speaking thought, and is the immediate cause of ex- terior speech. Who hath made man's mouth, &c., denotes that thought and speech are caused by the influx of life from the Lord, 6987, 6991. In the mouth (or discourse) is understood of both parts of the mmd, intellectual and voluntary; "the law of Jehovah in thy mouth," denotes the divine truth in all that proceeds from the understanding and the will, 8068. The organs and parts of the mouth are formed to the double office of nourishment and speech ; also, that they correspond to the affection of knowing, and to the affection of thinking and producing what is thought, 4795, 6057, 8910. From the mouth and from the heart, denotes from the understanding and the will, also from truth and good; because the mouth, the lips, the tongue, &c., correspond to thought, and the heart to afl'ection; passages collated, 3313, 8068, 8910. The parts of the mouth correspond to the intellectual part of man, because the mouth utters both the voice and the speech, 8068, 9384. The Israelites journeying according to the commandment [mouth] of Jehovah, denotes according to truth divine, or the providen- tial means by which man is led to accept life from heaven, 8559—8560. The words of the Lord concerning defilement by that which goeth out of the mouth, not by that which entereth in, denotes that guilt accrues to man when evil which first enters the thought passes into will and act, ill. 8910. All parts of the face have reference to the affections, with which their functions and uses correspond; the parts of the mouth to whatever regards the enunciation of truth, 9049 end. The manna to be collected to the mouth of every one, according to his eating, denotes the good of truth to the full capacity of reception, 8467. Joseph said to sustain his father, his brethren, and the whole house of his father, to the mouth of an infant, denotes the influx of good from the celestial internal into spiritual good conjoined with the truths of the church in the natural man, according to the quality of innocence, 6107. The mouth of the sword, when Hamor and Sheckhem were slain, denotes the false and evil combating ; when the Amalekites were de- feated, truth combating, 4501, 8617. The silver of every one of Joseph's brethren returned in the mouth of his sack, denotes that truths are given to all according to reception, first in the entrance of the natu- ral memory, 5657. The opening in the robe of the ephod called its mouth, and worked round with woven work lest it should rend, denotes MUR 749 ^99"?"' Irt/^^^^^^^ &c 9913 MOVE, to. See Motion. MUCUS.

In ancient times they performed sacred music on various kinds of instruments, as timbrels, psalteries, flutes or P'P<^«; '''"■Pf;.*^:' some of which belong to the celestial class and some to the spiritual, 4138. The glorification of the Lord by vocal and instrumental har- mony affects the angels with joy by reason of * V^rrHnlT 8^6^1 the choirs of heaven, and with the rythmical speech of the angels, 8261. Musical instruments correspond to the delight and sweetness of s,..r,ual and celestial affection, and actually excite them, 8337. ^md ins u- ments express affections of good, stringed instruments affections of ruth 8337. 8802. Accordingly, the former have reference to celestial, the fatter to spiritual thing!, 418. Songs and /""^ical mstrumcnts -ere of old accompanied with the chorus or dance, because the delights which they preferred before all others were spiritual, and they thus nriamfested their spiritual affections, 8339, 8340. Angels and spirits distinguish the sounds of speech as well as of vocal and instrumental -"usic accord- ing to differences of good and truth, 420. See Choir, Singing, ^'''tJe Harp [ceMaro] and similar instruments signify the spiritual things of faith, 418; or the truths of faith, 420.

Aaron as H"Kh Priest signifies divine good, his sons, divine truth proceeding from d^ ine good, 9807. Divine |ood in the inmost heaven, or the voluntary part of man is called celestial good, which is also represented by Aaron 9810.

His son Terah denotes the idolatrous worship into which the Hebrew, or second ancient church, had thus declined and also the nation practising it; his other sons and daughters canons idolatrous rituals, 1 354. In the family of Terah, the name of Jehovah was for- gotten, and they worshipped Schaddai, and other gods, or Teraphim. !992 5628. Notwithstanding their idolatry, the family of Terah were more capable of receiving the goods and truths of/aith than others m Syria, with whom the knowledge of such goods and truths had been pre- served 1366. When the representative Jewish church began with Abraham, the son of Terah, the whole family became representa ive characters, 1375, 3778, 1361 end. Before they became representative Terah denotes idolatrous worship in general, 1367; but afterwards, the common stock or beginning of churches, 3778, 4207. Nahor. together with Abram and Haran, the three sons of Terah, were themselves idolaters and the fathers of idolatrous nations, 1355. 1360.

From the signification of ^^^^^ in those parts of the Word which appear nothing but ge^ealogies^^ beautiful meaning and sequence arises in the internal sense, 1224, 1204, 4642 cited below The names before Eeber were not those of real per- sons, but of real nations forming the ancient church to whom those sig- nificant names were applied, 1140, 1238. When a name IS mentione^ in the Word it marks that something is to be pa'-^^cularly observed this because name denotes quality, 1896 ; see below, 6674. The names given to their sons and daughters by the ancients were significant ot the state of the parents, but especially of the mothers, either when they conceived, during the time of gestation, or at both; otherwise, they denoted the state of the infant when bom, 1946, «A. 2643. It was a customary man- ner of writing amongst the ancients to introduce things, e. ^., wisdom, intelligence, and science, as historical personages, and to g^^^ them sig- nificant names ; such were the gods and demigods of antiqmty, 4442. The derivations of divine good in the Lord's natural man, are treated ot under the names of the nativities of Esau, because the subject exceeds all human understanding, ill, 4642. When several names occur together in the Word, they represent various things, but all in one and the same person, 5095. In the prophecies mere names often occur, whether ot per- sons, kingdoms, or cities; these are various in the external sense but one in the internal, 5095. The idea of person in the letter is always turned into the idea of some spiritual thing in the internal sense, thus the idea of a man, a husband, a wife, a woman, a virgin, into the idea ot truth or eood. 5225. Nothing is known in heaven of any person, nation, or people mentioned in the letter of the Word, but the thing or quality Represented by them, 5225, especially 10,216. Names in the Word comprehend in a summary the whole quality and state of the thing un- derstood by them, 6674.

By the borders of the Canaanitish nations are described the talses and evils in which such idolatries terminate; and they are called sons of Ham, because they all spring from corrupt mternal worship, 1212, 12i^. Thes^ nations expelled from the Land of Canaan, and the similar expul- sion of the Jews afterwards, denote the evils and falses which are re- moved by regeneration, in order that goods and truths may take their place 1868. The Hittites, with whom Abraham sojourned, were among the upright nations of Canaan, and by the transactions between them and Abraham was represented the spiritual church among the nations, 3470. The Hivites and Gibeonites (including Hamor and the people of Sheckhem), were among the better natix)ns of Canaan with whom the interior truths of the ancient church still remained, ^f 1' . IJ^^/'^^^^ were forbidden to contract marriages with the nations lest they should become idolaters and should conjoin evils and falses with goods and truths, but it was not forbidden with those Gentiles who conformed to their ritual, ilL 4444. When the sons of Israel came into possession of Canaan, they represented heavenly goods and truths, and the nations there infernal evils and falses; on this account the latter were devoted to destruction, and it was forbidden to enter into any covenant with them, 6306; further ill. 9193. The Canaanites generally, represented evil from the false of evil; Hittites, the false producing evil; Amorite, evil which produces the false; Hivite, the idolatry in which something of good remains; Jebusite, the idolatry in which something of truth re- mains ; these nations being in Canaan, denote those who are in evils and falses occupying the region of heaven, 8054 ; compare, 9332. Divine truth combating against the evils and falses of these nations was represented by Joshua, as captain of the people, and by the angel which appeared to him with a drawn sword in his hand, 8595. The nations out of the church were designated as enemies, haters, &c., to denote spiritual dis- agreement, yet the angels do not treat them as enemies, but instruct them and lead them to good, 9255 ; and that such chanty ought to be exercised towards those who are out of the church, 9256. The nations of Canaan represented aU falses and evils in the complex which infest the church, 9316, 9327, 9332, 10,638. The Jews were permitted to Slav the Canaanites, because they were themselves only the representa- tive of a church, indeed, they were the worst ot all nations, 9320. Ihe destruction of the nations represented the removal of evds and the talses of evils, because those who are in goods and truths never destroy those who are in evils and falses, 9316, 9320, 9333 ; also, that the expulsion NAT 761 butt rh?:3«K3iri7r;r -^ '"^ '"''^^ °^ -'^ -^ f-^-.

The general opinion is that the nations or Gentiles are not saved, wherefore the Lord in his mercy has allowed the author to become acquainted with their lot in the other life, 2589. All the Gentiles are saved who have lived the life of good, and the angels are very solicitous to instruct them in the goods and truths of faith, 2590. The difference in the other life between the GentUes and the Christians explained, that the latter are received in preference, if they are in corresponding good, but not otherwise. 2590. Amongst the Gentiles there are the wise and simple, but not so many wise at the present day as m ancient times. 2591 .

Unless natural good conform to rational eood, and all to the Lord, there can be no perception. 2181. ««J'1»»- Cne eood in the natural man. is the delight perceived from charity; Ws trutl^rhatever scientific favours that delight. 2184 end; see below SI 14 3167 3293. The first affection of truth in the natural man is not that of genuine truth, but this comes successively by the former as means^ 3040. The affection of troth in the natural man exists by influx trom the affection of good in the rational, 3040. Good flows in from the rational man in celestial freedom, and unless the affection of truth is re- ceived from it the natural cannot be conjoined to the rational, 304J. The influx of good is into the scientifics, knowledges, and doctnnals ot the natural, which it illustrates and disposes in order; hence the attec- tion of truth. 3086. The truths of the natural man are scientifics, namely, whatever may be comprehended in the extenwl memory ; but his giods are delight's, especially such as are of the affection of those truths, 3114; hence, that scientifics are the proper f(K.d of the natural man 56—57. 3114.

The work of charity is done by the natural man, but unless the spiritual and the celestial be in it, it has no life from the Lord, ill. 880. A life according to natural good is not saving, but a life according to the truths and goods of faith ad- mitted as the principles and rules of action, ill. 6208. Without the truths of faith, the natural man is like a reed shaken by the wind, tor there is no stamina by which the angels can hold him to good and truth, 7197, 8002. There are no truths in the extremes of the natural mind, but the whole is occupied with the false and evil, 7645, 7693. Spiritual good, which is alone saving, derives its quality from the truths of faith, their copiousness and connection, but natural good is a thing of accident and can easily be bent to evil, 7761. To do good from natural temper alone, is to act as from blind instinct, and such cannot be m heaven, til. 8002 ; the whole further ill. S772. See Good (3). 10.

The interior natural communicates with the miomd mind and forms the plane of natural life after death; the exte nor natural consists in the life of the senses and actions 3293 Sm pare the three parts, 1589. The external natural is from the s^S , ( 1:; I I 778 NAT of the body, and they who live and think in these are called sensual men; the internal natural consists in analogical truths and conclusions elevated out of the exterior, 4570, ilL 5094. When the natural is con- sidered in three parts a medium between the external and internal is predicated, by separating the external natural from the sensual, whicb is then called the extreme, 4570, 9215-9216. The natural man con- sidered in three parts, internal, middle, and external, is denoted by the feet, the soles of the feet, and the heels, respectively, 6844 end, 7 7^ J. See Foot. The external sensuals are in two classes under the will ana understanding respectively, and unless they are subject to the internal sensuals man is lost, 5077; see below, 5157. The external sensuals of both kinds together with their recipient vessels, are, properly speaking, the exteriors of the natural, or the corporeal part of man; but the inte- riors of the natural are scientifics and their affections, /^^«— ?"'^^.; The exteriors of the natural are all that man puts off by death, tor all that he has thought, said, or acted in the body, and all his natural affec- tions and lusts, thus, all the interiors of the natural, are retained, oO/ 9, 5094. The interior natural communicates with the rational, and the rational flows into it ; the exterior natural communicates with sensuals, and into that the world flows, 5118, further ill, 5126. The exterior natural is constituted by all that enters through the senses into the natural mind, namely, into the exterior memory and the imagy^atf ° ^ how the interior natural and the rational are successively opened, 5rJb. The interior natural receives ideas of truth and good from the rational, and by these the exterior natural ought to be illustrated ; also that such illustration takes place when charity is the uniting medium, 5133. The exterior natural is composed of scientifics subject to the intellectual part, and of delights subject to the voluntary part, all of sensual origin ; the former can be brought into correspondence with the interior natural, but not the latter, 5157, 5160—5167; see below, 6844. The exteriors of the natural, which are sensuals, serve as a plane and as it were a tace, in which the interiors are brought to view ; unless the interiors thus imaged themselves in exteriors man could not think, ilL 5165, further ill 5168. The interior and exterior natural, act as one by conjunction, and are spoken of together in the Word, 5263, 5276, 5282, 5333. It is from the exterior natural that a boy thinks while he is yet a stripling ; when he approaches manhood he begins to think from the interior natural, in other words he begins to reason; but in manhood, if he culti- vates his rational faculty, he rises to intellectual and immaterial ideas; finally, if he receives good from the Lord, he comes into the light of heaven, 5497. Men have no knowledge of the difi*erence between the exterior and interior of the natural, but the angelic societies to which they correspond know it well, and also how truth is received in either part, ill. 5649. The exterior lives from the interior, and when they are separated the exterior dies, 5707. The interior lives in a sphere so much purer than the exterior, that it is capable of receiving distinctly a thousand and a thousand things, which appear to the exterior as one general form, 5707. The externals of the natural man (meaning sensuals) must be removed (in other words man must be elevated out of them), if he would approach the Divine, ill. 6844; the reason further ill. by the falses and evils which occupy the extremes, 7645, 7693. The exterior goods and truths of the natural man are conjoined to evils and falses NAT 779 because they look outwards and downwards, thus to self and the worid ; but his interior goods and truths are related to the Lord and his kine- T^y because they look inwards and above himself, ill. 7601, 7604, 7b{}7. The natural man is distinguished as interior, exterior or middle, and extreme or outermost; by the interior he communicates with heaven, by the extreme or outermost, which is the sensual part, with the worid, and the exterior or middle mediates between them, 9215—9216, 10,236. All the interiors close-in together and rest upon the exterior and extremes, thus upon the sensual or ultimate of man's life ; ill, by the skin which contains all the interiors of the body and holds them in connection, 92 1 6. By the ultimate or external sensual is not meant the senses themselves of the body, but the proximate faculties of the man, who is called sensual if he thinks and desires according to those appe- tites, ilL 9730. That the sensual part or ultimate of the natural man is not regenerated at this day, but the regenerate are elevated from it into the light of heaven, 6183, 6454; passages cited, 7442 end. 14.

The Interiors of the Interior Natural, are also called spiritual, because from the light of heaven; and in this light are truths adjoined to good, 5344. The spiritual interiors in this light correspond to the angehc societies of the second heaven, and man communicates with this heaven by remains, 5344. When man receives good from the Lord, his understanding comes into the light of heaven, because all truths are housed in good, 5497 end. ^ 1 6.

The spiritual-natural is so called when the natural is rendered subservient to the spiritual, and acts from it as an eff'ect from its cause, 56ol. The natural, predicated of angels, is the natural made spiritual because conjoined and subject to the spiritual, 5649. 17. The Celestial-Natural, is the same as natural good, or good in the natural, br. 2184 end; represented by "the son of an ox tender and good, 2180, 2183. The celestial is predicated of the natural man as well as the rational, namely, when good is received; in Hke manner the spintual, when truth is received, 4570. The celestial principle itself and the spiritual itself, dwell in the interiors of the rational, but they also flow into the exterior of the rational, and into the natural, ill. 5150. The celestial man is so powerful by truth in the natural before he puts off that state, that he can combat with the hells; that this was repre- sented by the Nazarite, 3301. The spiritual of the celestial is the intermediate between the internal of the natural and the external of the rational, 4585. 18.

See Thought, Idea, Illustration, Understanding. 20. That it is not the Natural Man that thinks, but the rational in the natural, and this from good, ill. 2004, 3086, ill. 3679, 4015. When the rational and natural correspond, man thinks spiritually, because the communication is open for influx, but otherwise when they do not corre- spond, 3679; compare 9702, 9703. The natural man, thinking from the rational, may know natural good and truth without revelation, but not spiritual, 3768. The spiritual or internal man can see what is done in the natural or external, but not contrariwise, because influx is from the spiritual into the natural, 4667, 5119, 5259, 5427, 5428, 5477, 6322,9110. See Thought, Illustration. 21. The Imaffination of the merely Natural Man, is material, and his affections resemble those of brute animals, 3020, 3337, 4408. When however, the natural man sees, thinks, and lives from the internal or spiritual, he is the subject of a genuine illumination, which is ill. 3493, 5128, 5270, 5422—5423, 5427—5428, 5477, 541 1, 5700. See Illus- tration, Imagination. 22. The Natural or External Memory, is the memory of particulars or material things, which are scientifics and knowledges, and which serve as objects to internal sight, 1639, 1900, 2470, 3679, 4588, 4901, 9222, 9394, 9723. See Memory (2). 23. The Natural Man predicated of the Lord. The natural man can only be conjoined to the rational in freedom; accordingly, when the Lord made his rational divine, he left the natural free, 3043. The con- ception and birth of the divine natural was represented as to good, by Esau, and as to truth by Jacob, hr. 3232, 3279, 3289, 3293, 3294, 3299, 3302, 3303, 3305, 3313, 3314, 3599. The Lord could not make his natural man divine before truth was adjoined to his rational ; because influx is from the divine good of the rational by divine truth, 3283. The divine natural exists from the divine good of the rational as a father, and from the divine truth of the rational as a mother, 3286, 3288. Good cannot be conjoined to truth in the natural man without temptations, which the Lord sustained therefore till the vessels recipient of truth, and even the corporeal part, was made divine in him, 3318, 3490. The Lord willed distinctly from divine good and from divine truth, when he made the natural divine; from the former he chose good as the medium, from the latter truth, 3509; and the passages concern- ing the preference of Isaac for Esau, and of Rebecca for Jacob, cited above (5). Natural good in the Lord represented by Esau, was divine from the father, but human from the mother; in like manner truth, because this is always adjoined to good, 3599. The Lord made his natural divine by goods and truths corresponding with the good and truth of the divine rational, ill. 3660. The Lord made his natural divine by his own power, still, by goods and truths according to order, 4025. The human natural was made divine, and Jehovah, as well as the human rational, so that light, intelligence, and wisdom, proceed from it, 4240.

NAZARITE [Nazir€eus\ A Nazarite represented the celestial man, and every product of the vine was forbidden him because the ce- lestial cannot partake in what is spiritual, 2187; in other words, because the celestial are not regenerated by the truth of faith, like the spintual, 5113 end. The offering of the Nazarite was one he-lamb, one ewe- lamb, and one ram, because the first two denote celestial love and truth, and a ram the spiritual principle, 2830. The Nazarites represented the Lord as to the divine human, especially the divine natural, and, in a lower sense, the man of the celestial church, 3300, 3301, 5247. The long hair of the Nazarite represented the natural man of the celestial, and the great strength of Samson is attributed to his hair because good does not fight, but only truth, in which it is ultimated, 3301, 5247. The holiness of the Nazarite consisted in his hair, because he represented the Lord as to the divine natural, or external divine human, 6437. The crown of the head of a Nazarite has reference to the hair, and de- notes divine truth in ultimates, 6437. The Nazarite represented the divine natural of the Lord, also divine truth proceeding from him in ultimates, which is the Word in the literal sense ; the text of Lam. iv. 7, explained 9470; compare, as to the latter point, 3300, 3812. The power of good and truth in ultimates was represented in the ancient church by the Nazarite, especially by the hair, as appears from Samson, 9836. NEAR [jpropinqms]. See Nigh. NEBAIOTH AND KEDAR.

The doctrine of philosophical necessity is not true, and yet there is most essential order in all things from the Lord, ill. 6487. NECK [collum, cervixl. 1. The neck, being intermediate between the head and the body, denotes influx, communication, and conjunction, Tiz., of superiors with inferiors, ill 3542, 3603, 4352, 5320, 5926, 6033, 8079. Bands \vinculd\ of the neck, or a yoke upon the neck, denotes the interception of good and truth, vastation, slavery, 3542, 3603. Bol- sters, called cervicalioy things of the neck, or capitalia, things of the head, [Hebrew, mareshoth, head-places or things,] denote the outmost, or most common form of communication, 3695, 3725. The neck denotes the con- junction of interiors with exteriors; a chain of gold upon the neck de- notes that such conjunction is by good, 5320. Specifically, the neck denotes the influx and communication of celestial things with spintual ; the knees, of spiritual with natural, 5328; the former only, 5926, 9913, ill. 9914. To fall upon the neck, denotes close and inmost conjunction, 4352, 5926, 6033. The difference between eollutn, the fore part of the neck, and cervix, the hinder part, is not distinctly stated, see, however, 3695, 6365, 9330, 10,429; the latter three cited below. 2.

An affirmative state of mind is necessary betore man can receive the influx of good and truth from the Lord; hence, the affirmative state is introductory to all intelligence and wisdom, 2o68, 3913. They who are in the affirmative confirm divine truths by scientifics; they who are in the negative invahdate them, and at length believe nothing; hence, the learned especially have so little interior sight 4760. The character of those in whom the negative reigns uni- versally, ill. and sh, 6015, 6125 ; and that scientifics collected in this state all tend to denial, 6383. See Doubt, Pharaoh. NEGRO. See Ethiopia. NEIGHBOUR [Proximua]. 1. He who thinks and intends evil ao-ainst his neighbour is among infernal spirits; but he who thinks and intends good is among good spirits and angels, 1680. What is meant by neighbour cannot be known from the doctrinal of faith, but from the doctrinal of charity ; because they only are meant by the neighbour who are principled in good, and abstractly good itself, 2417. It was a part of the wisdom of the ancient church to distinguish those who were neighbour to them in various degrees, according to their spiritual state, with reference to good ; hence the signification of the poor, the sick, the naked, the hungry, the fatherless, the stranger, the widow, &c., 24 1 7, the latter 4956. They who are neighbours to one another are called brothers throughout the universe, because brother also denotes good, or one who is in good, sh, 2360, further ill. 6756. They who are in charity regard all who receive good from the Lord as their neighbours, but the evil deduce the claim to neighbourhood from themselves, accord- ing as others favour and serve them, 2425; see below 6023. The general good is more a neighbour than any individual, and still more the Lord's kingdom in heaven and earth, 2425, 6023. In the supreme sense the Lord himself is the neighbour, and in the respective sense all good from him accordingto its degree, 2425, 3419, 3875. Reason may teach all that the neighbour is to be loved, but only the Word can discover who is the neighbour, namely, that it denotes those who are in good, be- cause in their good the Lord is present, 3768 ; ill, that good in others is the neighbour that we ought to love, 10,336. When they who are in external truths read that the neighbour is to be loved, they think of all without distinction, but they who are in internal truths know that every one is to be loved according to the good that is in him, 3820. Love towards the neighbour is charity, or spiritual love, the same as repre- sented by Levi, 3875. Love to the neighbour is the love of good and truth, because the neighbour denotes those who are in good and truth, and abstractly good itself, and truth itself, 4837, near the end ; further ill, 4956. Ultimate truth is the same in form both to the spiritual and the natural, but is differently understood ; ill, by good to the neighbour, &c., 5028. It is a common truth, or scientific of the church, that every one is meant by the neighbour, but this scientific is filled with ur^Z.f^: according as the neighbour is viewed from good or from self, 0023. Christian charity is good qualified by truth, and there is as much difference between good done for the sake of the Lord and the vT^no 1 i^ V""? ^^'^ ^"""^ Sood done for self, as between heaven and hell, I/O210, further eV/. 10,284.

It IS supposed that every one is alike a neighbour, but there are great dif- ferences, which ought to be known before good can be done? 6703— a: I? i ^^ account the ancients reduced the neighbour into classes, and taught how charity was to be exercised towards each kind ; thus, their doctrines were laws of life, or of charity, 6705. With Christians the Lord is the source of the relationship understood by neighbour, thus it is the good which is from him, 6706, 671 1. The discrimination of one from another in the true doctrine of the neighbour is according to the quality of good, thus according to the presence of the Lord, 6/07, V i ^^ ^. ^^® ^^^^ ^^^ ^^Sree in which any one is a neighbour must be determined, because every one's good is according to the quahtv of his love, 6709, ill, 6710.

Societies are to be the subjects of neigh- bourly love and service on the same principle as individuals, according to the good that is in them, 6820— 6821 . The church is loved as the neighbour when by its truth others are led to good, 6822. The Lord is the neighbour above all, and is to be loved above all, which is done by having regard to him m every degree of neighbourly love, 6819, 6824. It IS a common saying that every one is neighbour to himself, and should first provide for himself; this indeed must be done, but with the end of serving others, 6933—6938. Every one is a neighbour to himself, not in the first place but the last, 6933. Every one should provide tor himself, that he may have the necessaries of life, and be in a state of exercising charity,— but if he provides for himself, as principal, the end is evil, 6934, 6935. Two illustrations of this doctrine, first, that the body ought to be provided for with a view to the mind, and the mind again ought to be imbued with wisdom and intelligence, that it may serve the Lord ; second, that the case is similar to the erection of a house, for the foundation is first in time, but the first and last end is habitation, thus the foundation is for the sake of the house, 6937. The case is similar in respect to woridly honours, which are to be courted, not for the sake of self, but for the sake of the neighbour, 6938. Genuine chanty, or love to the neighbour, is to act prudently for the sake of good as an end, to do right in all things, and strictly to perform the duties of one's office, br, ill, by examples, 8 1 20—8 1 22. A good person is the neighbour towards whom charity is to be exercised ; not so the evil, because charity in its larger sense requires that they should be punished, 8 1 20—8 121. To do what is good and right, for the pure sake of what IS good and right, is to love the neighbour, and to love God, 8123, 10,284, 10,310, ill, 10,336. See Charity. l2 786 NET 3.

That a man and his companion, a man and his neighbour and a man and his brother, denote truth to which good is conjoined, 10, j55. NEPHILIM, the, (translated giants), were those who immersed the doctrinals of faith in their cupidities, and, from the love of selfjconceived dire persuasions of their own eminence, 557, 580 ; see below o82. 1 he Nephihm dwelt in the land of Canaan, where the church had been as appears from the sons of Anak, Num. xiii. 33, who were of their number, 567 4454, end. The Nephilim were such as from the persuasion ot their own height and pre-eminence made truths and all sacred things oXnoB^c- count, 580—581. So direful were the persuasions and fantasies ot the Nephilim that the human race must have perished if the Lord by his advent had not liberated the world of spirits from them, o8 1 , 1 b/ J. l he Nephilim are now in hell, under what appears a cloudy and dense rock be- neath the heel of the left foot, whence they dare not emerge, 581 ; their character and state fully described, 1265-1272, 1673. The posterity of the NephiUm are called in the Word Anakim and Rephaim, 581. Ihe sons of God denote the doctrinals of faith, and the daughters of men evil cupidities, from the conjunction of which the Nephilim were born, 582. The Nephilim were called mighty men, from self love, 583. In the most ancient church truth was known from good, or the will had influx into the understanding ; hence the dire persuasions which cha- racterised the Nephilim when lusts prevailed, for which reason the state was changed, 640, 927. The Rephaim, Susim, and Emim, denote per- suasions of the false, such as the Nephilim imbibed, ill, 1673; and that the Anakim, or Rephaim, were called Emims by the Moabites, 581, 1868 end; see further 2468. The false persuasions infused by the Nephilim, or last posterity of the most ancient church, were so deadly that few could have been saved, if the Lord had not assumed the human; also, that the Lord cast them into hell when he was in the world, /68(); as to the Cauaanites who succeeded them after the flood, see Nations (5) NERVE [nervus]. Truths in good are like nerves in the flesh, or like spiritual fibres which form the body ; hence, fibres denote the in- most forms proceeding from good, and nerves, or sinews, truths, «A. 4303, 5435. The nerve, or sinew, put out in the hollow of the thigh denotes what is false; and it was not to be eaten because the false must not be appropriated, 4303, 4317, 5051 and citations. Ends are repre- sented by the beginnings of fibres, thoughts by the fibres from those beginnings, and actions by nerves, 5189. See Fibre. NEST [nidus].

The grate of network round about NIG 787 the altar denotes the sensual part, or ultimate of man's life, and the same in the Lord's divine human, 9726, 9730. All the extremes of the body are like reticulated forms, which either reject or admit such matters as flow-in from the world, 9726. The grate of network round the altar was of brass, to represent good in that degree, 4489, 9727. The grate of network made up to the midst of the altar, denotes the exten- sion of the sensual part from the head to the loins, 9731. The net, or caul upon the liver, denotes interior good in the external or natural man, or good purified, 10,031, 10,073. NETTLES [urticce]. A place of nettles, relative to Sodom, denotes the vastation of good, and hence the ardour or burning of man's life from the love of self; salt-pits, relative to Gomorrah, the vastation of truth, and hence the desire of the false, 2455, 10,300. NIGELLA. See Fitches. NIGH [j)ropinquus']. The city of Zoar called nigh by Lot, denotes the truth in affinity with good, 2428. The father and brethren of Joseph nigh to him in Goshen, denotes perpetual conjunction, 5911. The way by the land of the Philistines called nigh, denotes that faith separate from charity occurs first when those who have been in evil think of the truths of the church, 8094. To approach and be nigh, denotes conjunction and presence, ill. and sh. 9378. To approach to God, is to think of the Divine by the faith of charity, 6843. To come near, denotes presence, perception, interior communication, 3572, 3574, 5883. It is by good, which occupies the interiors, that man is in heaven, and as to his inmost near the Lord, 7910, further ill, 10,134. See Approach, Come, Conjunction. NIGHT [nox]. 1. The proprium being as thick darkness in man is compared to night, 21 ; see below 9299. States of perception and of faith are called day, states of no faith, night, 221. States of love and charity are called day, states of faith without charity, night, 709, ill, 862. The changes which the regenerate undergo in will are as summer and winter, their changes in understanding as day and night, ill. and sh. 935—936. The night denotes a state of shade, in which apparent good and truth cannot be distinguished from genuine good and truth, 1712, 3438, 3693; see below 5092. The evening followed by night denotes the state of the church when there is no longer any charity, and faith begins to decline; the evening (understood as the morning twihght), followed by day, denotes the state of the new church, or of commencing charity, 2323. Night denotes the total absence of all that constitutes the church, 2323, 2335. The time proceeding from evening to night, denotes visitation and judgment, 2345. Day is a state of good and truth, night of what is merely false and evil, 2353, 6000. The internal sense of the Word is as day, the literal sense as night, ill, 3438. The night denotes the last time of an old church, and the first of a new one, 4638. The state of shade, denoted by the night, is from the false of evil; a second state of shade is from ignorance of truth; a third state is from the obscurity of externals compared with internals, 5092. Every state of spiritual shade, or night, is caused by the non-reception of light from the sun of heaven, which is the Lord, 5092. Night de- notes an obscure state, in which truth does not appear, also, when the false of evil prevails, and when the church comes to its end, sh. 6000, 8199. A vision of the night denotes obscure revelation, sh, 6000. All 788 NIG NIS 789 ill hell are said to be in night, or darkness, and are called angels of the night, or of darkness; they see one another, however, in a light as from a coal fire, 6000. In heaven there is evening and twilight, from the pro- prium of the angels, but not night, which is in hell, ill. 6110, 10,134 ; see also 3340, 3643, 4416, 4418. 4531, 5128, 7870, 8426, 8814. The morning light that succeeds to night in the other life, is from truth, and all darkness from falses, ill. 6829. States of temptation, infesta- tion, and desolation, are evening and night in the other life ; states of consolation and festivity, morning and day-dawn, ill. 7193. Morn- ing, noon, evening, and night, correspond to states of illustration ; when predicated of the evil, to states of perception, 7680, 8106; pas- sages cited, 10,134. Midnight, when the darkness is thickest, denotes total devastation, 7776, 7947. Night denotes damnation, because the devastation of all truth and good, 7851. The several significations of night cited, showing that it denotes a state of evil, because of no faith and charity; thus, total devastation, damnation, hell, 7870; and hence a state of the mere false from evil, 7947. Night denotes the proprium of man, because this is nothing but evil and false, 9299. See Evening, Darkness, Twilight, Morning, Light. 2. Harmony of Passages. The hght, called day, and the darkness, night, distinguishes all that is of the Lord in man, and all that is of man's proprium, 21. Rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights, denotes the state and duration of spiritual temptations between what is good and true on the one hand, and evil and false on the other, 758 — 764, 862. The promise that seed-time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease, denotes the per- petual procedure of regeneration and its changing states, which are de- scribed 930 — 936. Abram and his servants smiting the kings in the night when he rescued Lot, denotes the state of first temptations when evils and falses are overcome in the obscurity of apparent goods and truths, 1652, 1712. We will pass the night in the street, said by the angels who came to Lot, denotes the state of judgment from truth, 2335. Evening and night, understood by the time they were in the house of Lot, denotes the procedure of visitation and judgment, or of inquisition into evil, 2345. Where are the men who came to thee in the night, said by the men of Sodom, denotes the denial of the divine human and the holy proceeding at the end of the church, 2352, 2353. Jehovah appearing to Abraham in the night when he went up to Beer- sheba, denotes obscure perception from the Lord in divine doctrine, 3436, 3438. Jacob passing the night in Luz, as he went from Beer- sheba to Charan, denotes the obscure state of the understanding, remote from divine doctrinals, 3690, 3693. The butler and baker of Pharaoh both dreaming in one night, denotes the state of sensuals, both volun- tary and intellectual, equally in the shade of falses, 5092. Israel at Beersheba, and God manifested to him in the visions of the night, de- notes obscure revelation in a state of charity and faith, or of spiritual good, 5997, 6000. An east wind brought upon Egypt all day and all night, which brought the locusts, denotes the loss of all perception by the evil, and the natural mind occupied by falses, 7679, 7680, 7682 — 7684. The first-born of Egypt, slain at midnight, denotes the state of total devastation in which the damnation of faith separate from charity takes place, 2353, 777(^» 7S70—7S71, 7017. The passovcr eaten by the Israelites that night, denotes the fruition of good enjoyed by the spiritual when they are liberated from infestation by falses, 7822, 7849 — 7851. Pharaoh said to arise that night, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and a great cry made in Egypt, denotes the damna- tion of all and every one who are in the false of evil, and their interior lamentation, 7952—7954. Pharaoh said to call Moses and Aaron in the night, denotes the afflux (or external apprehension) of truth from the divine in that state, 7955. Jehovah going before the Israehtes in a pillar of fire by night, denotes the Lord's presence when the spiritual are in a state of obscurity, which receives illustration from good, 8105, 8108. The one came not near the other all night, said of the Egyptians and Israelites, denotes the state of obscurity as to the truth and good of faith, which succeeds immediately after temptations, 8199. The fat of the sacrifice not to be kept through the night, denotes that the good of worship is not from the proprium, but is always new from the Lord, 9299. The words of our Lord, I must work the works of Him who sent me while it is day, the night comes in which no one can work, de- note the regeneration of man in a state of faith, or of good and truth, and that it cannot take place in a state of evil and the false, 221, 2353, 6000. If a man walk in the night he off'ends, because there is no light in hini (John xi. 10), denotes the state of false from evil, 2353. A cry made in the middle of the night, behold the bridegroom comes, &c., de- notes the mutation of the church when it comes to its end, and hence judgment, 4638. Night in various prophecies explained of the last times of the church, 2353, 6000, 10,134. NILE. See Egypt (8). NIMROD, denotes external worship, in which are interior evils and falses, 1133. His being the son of Cush, who was the son of Ham, denotes the origin of such worship with those who possessed the inte- rior knowledges of faith separate from charity, 1 1 75, 1 1 76. Nimrod is called a mighty one, because such was the religion that prevailed in the church; and a hunter, on account of its persuasive and captivating tenets, 1177, 1178. Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar, are the places where such worship commenced, and they signify the worship itself and its varieties, 1 180— 1 183. This worship declined gradually until it became interiorly filthy and profane, in which profane state it is signified by the land of Shinar, 1182, 1183, 1292, 8540. Asshur going out thence, denotes the commencement of reasonings con- cerning internal worship among those of this quality, 1184 — 1186. Nineveh, and the other cities which he built, denote the doctrinals of faith thus formed, 1184. Specifically, Nineveh denotes false doctrine from the fallacies of the senses; Rehoboth, the same, ruled by the lust of innovation, or pre-eminence; Calah, false doctrine originating in the will, 1187 — 1189. Resen, between Nineveh and Calah, denotes false doctrinals of life, which are generated between the falses of reasoning and the falses of lust, 1190. NINE, NINETY. See Numbers. NINEVEH. See Nimrod. NISSI, my ensign or banner, is added to the name of Jehovah when his protection and perpetual war against evils and falses are treated of, ill, and sh. 8624. 790 NOA NOA 791 '94 NOS ■ I denotes the happy succession of all good and truth in the internal and external man, if these things are observed, 972, 1015 — 1018. 9. The History continued. Gen, ix. 8—17. God said to make a covenant with Noah, and with his seed, and the earth not to be des- troyed again by a flood, denotes the presence of the Lord in charity, and his providence guarding man from the suffocative persuasions which de- stroyed the posterity of the most ancient church, 973, 1023 — 1025, 1032, 1034—1035, 1051. The bow given in the cloud for a sign, and named twice, denotes the state of man receptive of spiritual light, both those of the church who are regenerated, and those not of the church who are yet capable of regeneration, 974, 1042 — 1059. 10. The History continued, Gen. ix. 18—29; briefly, that it treats of the ancient church in general, as developed in the three species denoted by Shem, Ham, and Japhet, 975, 1062. These three, called the sons of Noah, who went out from the ark and overspread the whole earth, de- note the three churches composed of those who were regenerated, from which all doctrines whatsoever were derived, 1065 — 1066. Noah first called a man of the ground (husbandman), and said to plant a vineyard, denotes instruction in the doctrinals of faith, whereby the spiritual church was formed, 1067 — 1069. Noah said to drink of the vine, and become drunken, denotes the investigation of faith by reasonings from self-intelligence, and hence a fall into errors, 975, 1071 — 1072. Noah said to be uncovered in the midst of his tent, denotes the perverse state of the spiritual man without the truths of faith, 975, 1073 — 1074. Ham, the father of Canaan, seeing the nakedness of his father, denotes those who separated faith from charity, and that such see evils only, 1077, 1079. Shem and Japhet covering Noah with a garment, denotes those who are in charity, internal and external, and that such interpret all to good, 975, 1082 — 1088. Noah awaking from his wine, and said to know what his younger son had done to him, for which he cursed Canaan, denotes the state when better instructed, and the vileness of those who are in mere externals perceived, 975, 1089 — 1094. The blessing of Shem and Japhet, denotes good, and the state of illustration of those who formed the true church, 1096 — 1102. The years that Noah is said to have lived after the flood, denotes the duration and state of the first ancient church, 976, 1 104— 1 105. The account of Noah's nakedness explained in a summary, and passages cited, 9960. 1 1 . The Reference to Noah and the Flood in the New Testament, hr, ex., in the words of the Lord concerning the last times, 4334. NOD. Cain said to dwell in the laud of Nod, denotes a state with- out truth and good, ill. 398. NOISE. See Cry, Shout. NOON \jneridies] denotes a state of light, or illumination of the in- teriors from the Lord, 5643, 5672; illustrative passages cited 9684. See Quarters (South). NO ONE OR NONE [nemo, nullusl. Instead of person in the in- ternal sense, some idea of good or truth is understood ; hence, no one or none denotes the pure negation of such an idea, 5225, 5253, 5310. NOPH, OR Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt, denotes those who seek to attain wisdom in divine things from self-intelligence, 273. NORTH. See Quarters. NOSE [nasus]. By the nostrils in the Word is meant whatever is NUM 795 grateful, and this from odour, which denotes perception, 96. Breathing through the nostrils in the account of Adam's creation, denotes the life of love and faith, which is most grateful to the Lord, 96—97. The nose denotes the life of good, on account of respiration by the nostrils, which, in the internal sense, is life, and from odour, which is the pleasantness [gratum] of love, 3103. The wind of the nostrils of Je- hovah, denotes life from the Divine, which is the life of heaven, sh. 8286. The spirit, or breath of the nostrils (Lam. iv. 19), denotes the celestial life itself, sh. 9818, 9954. An ornament of gold put on the nose of the bride in ancient times, denotes good; but an ornament put on the ear (expressed by the same word— monile), denotes good in act, 3103, 4551. An ornament on the nose denotes the perception of good, but an ornament on the ear the perception of truth and obedience, 9930. They who correspond to the nostrils in the Grand Man, excel in percep- tion, 4403, 9048 end ; seriatim passages concerning this correspondence, 4624—4634. They who belong to the province of the nostrils are in common perception, not in the perception of particulars, like those who belong to the eyes, 4624—4625. They who belong to the interiors of the nostrils are in a more perfect state than those who belong to the exteriors; how they were represented to the author, among other things by the appearance of holes and a beautiful yellow light, 4627. The spirits said to look as through these representative holes are of the female sex, and in the clear perception of ideas, 4627. Other spirits des- cribed who are represented by the mucus of the nostrils, how insidiously they try to insinuate themselves among those who constitute the inte- riors, but that such are cast down, 4627. The beautiful light described in which they who correspond to the interiors of the nostrils reside ; that It is of a golden hue, from the affection of good, and Hke silver from the affection of truth, 4627. That perceptions and spheres of life are actu- ally turned into sweet odours, as of fields and flowers, 4626, 4628 4629, 4748, 5621; and that smell denotes the perceptive faculty of in- terior truth derived from the good of love, 10,199. See Odour. NOT [non] remains a negative expression in the series of the spi- ritual sense, see examples 3990, 5256, 5434, 5438, 5439, 5524, 7474 7507, 7515, 7530, 7534, 7554, 7597. No, understood as a refusal, denotes doubt in a state of temptation, 2334. Let your discourse be yea, yea, nay, nay, denotes the clear perception of truth by those who are in good, without reasonings, 9166, 10,124. NOURISHMENT [alimentum]. Spiritual good is said to be nourished or sustained by interior truth, 5960. Spiritual nourishment is from knowledges of good and truth derived from the Word, 5960. Nourishment is represented in the other Hfe according to the desire of knowing and becoming wise; clothing, according to truths acquired from good, 9372. See Food, Garment. NOVITIATE [novitius]. Novitiates or initiates, denote such goods in the external man as can be conjoined to the internal, 1708. Novitiate spirits before their introduction into heaven, are instructed with much solicitude in the true doctrine of the Lord, 3704. NUMBERS. \. Concerning their general signification. Numbers and years in the Word, are not to be understood in their secular appli- cation, but they denote state; and hence celestial and spiritual things, 482, 647, 648, 737, 755, 813. In the most ancient times they com- 796 NUM puted states and mutations of the church by numbers, particularly three, seven, ten, twelve and their compounds, 487,575; later examples br. cited, 493; see below, 6175. It is manifest from the want of con- nection and consistency in the literal sense merely, that numbers have a hidden meaning, «A. 5/5. The signification of a number is not changed by being multiplied into itself, or divided; various examples, 737, 1856, 3960 end, 5291, 5335, 5708, 7973, 9487, 9674, 9716, 10,255. The multiplication of a number which denotes a few, makes it represent still fewer or less of the same thing, 813. A day, a week, a month, a year, denote one whole period, though it may be a hundred or a thou- sand years, because determined by state not time, 893, 1335. Num- bers denote things and states, understood as celestial or spiritual, and it is only such things that the angels perceive whenever numbers occur in the Word, 1963, 1984, 1988, 2075, 2252, 3252, 3272, 4264, 4495, 4617, 4670, 4759 end, 5291, 6175, 7284 end, 9103, 9488, 9529, 9601, 9659, 10,217, 10,253, 10,255, 10,624. Composite numbers are not generally explained by the author, because they involve so much that it cannot be reduced to an intelligible summary, 6175. The meaning of composite numbers was perceived in the most ancient times, but at length only the knowledge of simple numbers remained, such as three, six, seven, twelve, 6175. Number denotes quality, sh. 10,217 end; see below (666). Certain numbers belong to the celestial class of expres- sions, others to the spiritual, 10,262, 10,624; see below (two^ three). The interior meaning of numbers proved by their appearance to the author in the light of the spiritual world, 4495, 5265. 2. Difference between Number and Magnitude. Great is predicated of good, numerous of truth, 2227, 6172. To be fruitful or grow is predicated of good ; to be multiplied, a multitude, and much, of truth, 6172. 3. To Number, spiritually, is to order and arrange the truths of faith and the goods of love, ilL and sh. 10,217, 10,218. In the Hebrew tongue, to number, is expressed by a word which means also to lustrate, to enrol or muster, to animadvert, to visit, to command, all which are involved in its interior sense, 10,217. To number is to determine the quality, which is done by the Lord's arrangement and disposition of things, 10,217. The numbering of Israel imputed as a sin, denotes the assumption of all things of faith and love as one*s own, whereas evils can only be removed by attributing all to the Lord, ill. 10,218. Seven years' famine, three months' flight before the enemy, or three days* pestilence, proposed to David as his punishment for numbering them, denotes the spiritual state which results, 10,219. Jehovah Zebaoth numbering (or mustering) the host of war (Isa. xiii. 4), denotes the arrangement of truths for combat with falses, 10,217. The host of heaven all led forth by number, and called by name (Isa. xl. 26, and similar passages, as Ps. cxlvii. 4), denotes the orderly disposition of the knowledges of truth, 10,217. So teach us to number our days (Ps. xc. 12), denotes the arrangement and disposition of the states of life, 10,217. Numbered, in the Prophecies, (as in Isa. xxxviii. 10; Dan. v. 25 — 28,) denotes a state finished, specifically as to truth; weighed, as to good, 3104, 10,217. Fewness on the one part opposed to number on the other, denotes facility, 4518, cited below (18). 4. Nutnbers distinctly mentioned : One, There is no such thing as NUM 797 one simply, but every one is from the harmony of many formed to one use or end, ff. ^., as the whole heaven is one, Ab7, 687, 1285, 3035, 4149, 5962, 7836, 8003. The oneness of heaven is from its reference to the Lord as the only one in all and everything; and its varieties are all of mutual love and of faith in him, 551, 684, 685, 690, 9828. One predicated of the Lord and man, denotes conjunction with him, or the mystical union by love, 1013. The Lord is called the First Begotten, the Only-begotten, the Only One, because all love and the faith of love proceed from him, 352. The Trine in the Lord, called the Divine Itself, the Divine Human, and the Holy Proceeding, are One, and the celestial perceive them as One, 2149, 2156, 3241, 9866. One, gene- rally, denotes good, 3986, 4149, 10,261; for an illustration of which, as giving subsistence and coherence to all things, see Gold ; especially, 9550, 9568, 9574, 9667, 9863, 9864, 9874. One, understood as the half of two, denotes some degree of conjunction, 9530. One, either expressed or understood by the article, as a day, a week, a month, a year, denotes a whole period of time or state, 2906, 9037. Two, denotes marriage, and when the heavenly marriage is treated of it IS a holy number, 720. Two denotes labour and combat the same as SIX, for it is in the same relation to three, as the six days of labour to the seventh of rest, 720, 755, 900. When two is contrasted with three or seven as a holy number, it denotes what is relatively profane, 720, ill. 900. Twos or pairs denote correspondence, understood of the marriage between truths and goods, evils and falses, or will and under- standing, 747, 779. Two understood as a second, or after a foregoing state, denotes what is successive in order, 1335, 5623, 9037. A second time denotes greater in degree or more of the thing predicated, 284 1 . Two of anything is mentioned with distinct reference to the will and under- standing, or to what is predicable of will and understanding, as good and truth, 3519. Two denotes conjunction, or the marriage of good and truth, to which all things spiritual and natural have reference, ill. 5194, 5291, 5893, 8423, 10,181, 10,188. Predicated of the natural mind, two denotes both parts, interior and exterior, which act as one by conjunction, 5263, 5267, 5282. Double or twofold denotes to the full, 9137, 9152, 9161, 9861. Two denotes all and everything of each part m conjunction, 9166, 9529. Two named three times, denotes conjunction and fulness, 9565. Two, four, and eight, belong to the celestial class of expressions; hence they denote all good or all evil in the complex, 10,624. Two and a half denotes much and full, 9487 cited below (five), * Three, like seven, denotes what is holy and inviolable, 482, 720, 900, 1709, 2109, 2176, 3767; compare 10,127, cited hdow (seven). The third day is used in the same acceptation as the seventh, because of the Lord's resurrection on the third day; hence, both three and seven denote the Lord's coming into the worid and to glory, and his every coming to man, 720, 728, 900, ill, and sh, 901, 2788. A third part denotes what is holy the same, as three, 901 end. Three denotes the full time and state of the church from its beginning to its end; hence the third day, week, month, year, &c., denotes the end of the church, 1825. Three, or a third, denotes the end of a prior state and the begin- ning of a following, 2788, 5159. Three denotes what is complete and full; a third, what is not yet full, 2788 end, 6385. Three denotes what 798 NUM NUM 799 is complete and self-contained, 4010. Three denotes the end of a state of conjunction and the beginning of separation from what cannot be conjoined, 4119; thus, the last and at the same time the first, 4901. Three denotes what is complete or continuous from beginning to end, thus, a whole period whether great or small, ah. 4495, 5122, 5153, 5457, 9286, 9297, 9866; or, again, fulness of time and fulness of state, 6721, 8750; or a complete state, 6904, br. ill. 7715, 8150, ilL 8750; simply, fulness, 9556—9557, 9565, 9718, 9761, 10,127. Three de- notes perfection, because in all nature and in man himself there prevails a successive order of three, as end, cause, and effect, ill. 9825 ; br., that it denotes perfection, 9864. Three, in successive order, are necessary to the existence of a one, corresponding as the three heavens, and the Trine in the Lord, 9866. Thirds and fourths in order, denote fulness in series and conjunction, 8877, 10,624. The third month, or third day, denotes a new state, 4901, 5123. A way (or journey) of three days, denotes the full removal or separation of state, 4010, 6904. Three and a half, namely, three years and six months, or 1 260 days, denotes to the full, even to the end, 9198. One and a half denotes fulness the same as three, 9488, 9508, 9531; or enough, 9637. Two threes, named together, denote respectively all truth and all good, 9556. Anything triangular, or linear, has reference to truth, 8458, 9717. Three, six, and twelve, belong to the spiritual class of expressions, and denote all truths or all falses in the complex, 10,262, 10,624. Four, denotes union or conjunction, because derived from pairs or twos which refer to the marriage of things, 1686, 8877. Four or a fourth, has the same signification in general as forty and four hundred, 1856. Four parts, subtracted from five, denote goods and truths not yet made into remains by appropriation, 6157. Four denotes conjunc- tion and fulness, because it is the double of two, 9103, 9536 — 9538, 9563, 9601, 9674, 9677, 9720, 9728. Four-square denotes what is just, from good in externals; triangular, what is of rectitude from truths, 9717; the former, 9861, 10,180; compare 8458. Four denotes con- junction, three perfection, 9864. A fourth part denotes enough for conjunction, 10,136, 10,137. The four times of the day, the four seasons of the year, the four quarters, the four winds, denote variously all the states of love and faith, or the contrary, 3708, 9642, 9648. Five, and its multiple fifteen, or its diminutive a fifth, denotes some- what, a little, a few, the least in spiritual things to which any effect cnn be attributed, 649 ; so little as to be hardly anything, 798, 813, 1429, 5291, 5335, 6070, 6156. Five when contrasted with four, denotes disunion, 1686. When used for ten, five or a fifth denotes remains, but a little or few compared with ten, a hundred, or a thousand, sh. 5291, 5894, 5916, 6156, 6157, 6166. Five denotes little, from its rela- tion to numbers which denote much, 5291. Five, like ten under other circumstances, denotes much, 5708, 5956, 9102—9103. Two and a half, five, ten, a hundred, a thousand, alike denote much and fulness ; and when understood of the Divine, all, infinite, 9487, 9507, 9716, 10,253. When ten denotes all, five denotes some, or some part, 4638 ; see below, 10,255, When ten denotes all good and truth, five denotes all of one or the other, 9604. Five denotes all of one part, 9663 — 9665. Five, understood of length and breadth, denotes equal fulness, 9716. Five and fifty denotes some part, sufficient, enough, 9689, 9756, 9773. When ten denotes all, its half or five denotes some; when fulness, five denotes a corresponding or sufiicient quantity; when much, five denotes something, 10,255. To quintate, or take a fifth part, has the same general signification as to decimate, viz., to collect goods and truths, to preserve, to make remains, 5291, 6156. The several ages mentioned in Lev. xxvii., to the fifth, to the twentieth, and to the sixtieth year, denote respectively the period of infancy, or the good of innocence and ignorance ; the period of boyhood, or of instruction and science ; and the period of manhood, or the intelligence of truth and good; sixty and upwards, denotes a state of wisdom and of innocence in wisdom, 10,225. Six, denotes labour and combat, understood of temptations, 720, 730, 737, 900, 1709, 1963, 5335. Six denotes the dispersion of what is false, because this is done by temptation-combats, 737. Sometimes, six denotes the holy principle of faith, which is implied in tempta- tions, and this is its genuine derivation, 737 end. When under- stood in this sense it has respect to twelve, which denotes the all of faith, and to three which denotes what is holy; also, to seven, or the Sabbath of rest which is the result of temptations, 737 end. Two and six denote the entire state preceding the holy state of regeneration, denoted by three and seven, 900. Six denotes all the states of labour, combat, and temptation, preceding full regeneration, because there are really so many distinct advances, 6—12, 22, 26, 29 end, 38, 43, 62— 63, 737. When good is acquired, six denotes the remains of labour and combat, 4178. Six denotes the end of every state; seven, a full state or period; eight, the beginning of a new state, 8421. Six working days, before the Sabbath, denote the combats which precede and prepare the heavenly marriage, or the state of peace which arises from the con- junction of good and truth, 8494, 8800, 10,360. Six denotes the reception of truth before conjunction with good, 8506. Six denotes the whole state of man while he is regenerating, in which he is led by the truth of faith; seven, the state of good when he is regenerated, 8510, 9272, 9274, 9431, 10,667—10,668, 10,729. When used for twelve, six denotes all in one complex predicated of truths, of the truths of good, of good, 3239, 3960 end, 7973, 9555, 9561, 9566, 9654; in the opposite sense, the whole complex of evils and falses, 8148. Six days denote the whole state of a former church, to its end, and to the commencement of a new one, because the church is from the conjunction of good and truth, 9741 end. Seven, and all septenary numbers, as seventy and seventy-seven, denote what is holy and inviolable, sh. 395, 433, sh. 716, br. 724, 852, 881, 1429, 1988, 2905, ill. 5265, 6775, 9569. The number seven, like three, denotes what is holy or inviolable in state, 482, ill. and sh. 901 . Seven denotes the celestial man, the celestial church, the celestial of the two kingdoms, the Lord himself, 433, 1988. In the supreme sense, the seventh denotes the Lord, and hence the holy principle of love from him, 716, 5265; see below, 10,360. Seven relative to six has nearly the same signification as three relative to two, 720. Seven and three when thus compared, denote what is holy; six and two, what is respectively profane, 720. In the opposite sense, seven denotes what is profane, sh. 5268 ; and seventy and sevenfold, damnation, 433. Seven, like three, denotes the advent of the Lord in general and par- VOL. II. M 800 NUM NUM 801 ticular, 720, 728, 900. Seven denotes beginning and end, namely, the end of vastation, and the beginning of temptations, or the end of an old church and the beginning of a new one, because this is the consequence of the Lord's coming. 728, 730. Seven always adds a degree of holi- ness to the subject treated of, and such holiness is from celestial love or charity, 881. The celestial and the spiritual man are both named from rest, but the former is denoted by the seventh day, 74, 84 — 88, 737 ; the latter by the seventh month, 850—853. Instead of seven in the Word, the angels perceive an idea of what is holy because the celestial man is the seventh day, the Sabbath, or rest of the Lord, 1988. Seven days or a week, denotes an entire period, as of reformation, regeneration, temptation, &c., and this whether the time really occupied be minutes, hours, days, or any number of years, 2044, 3845, 4177. Seven denotes a whole period from beginning to end, thus, a full state, 7346, 7842, 9226, sh. 9228, 10,128; in like manner seventy, sh, 6508. The Sab- bath or seventh day, denotes the conjunction of good and truth, the heavenly marriage, peace, 8504, 8507—8509, 8515, 8519, 8976, 10,360; or the state when man is in good, 9274, 9279, 9431—9432, 10,368. In the supreme sense the Sabbath of rest, or seventh day, denotes the union of the Divine with the divine human in the Lord ; also the divine human itself in which that union took place; but in the spiritual sense it denotes the conjunction of the Lord with heaven and the church, or with an angel and the man of the church, 10,360. Seven denotes fulness or a whole period when holiness is treated of, but three in any other case, 10,127. Eighty denotes a new beginning, because it follows the seventh which completes an entire state and time, 2044, 8421, 9659. Eight has reference to purification which ought to be always going on as from a new beginning; hence the rite of circumcision on the eighth day, and hence eight denotes every new state or every beginning, together with its continuation, 2044, 2633. Eight denotes something distinct from what precedes it, because the eighth day is the beginning of another seven, 2866. Eight denotes the beginning of the second state in which the regenerate live from good, 9227. The eighth day of the feast of tabernacles is called a Sabbath because it denotes the beginning of a new state, namely, of the conjunction of good with truth, 9296. Eight, and its double, sixteen, but especially eight after seven, denotes fully and in all ways, 9659 — 9660. Eight, like two and four from which it rises, denotes conjunction to the full, 9659. Nine, is related to ten, as ninety-nine to a hundred, and denotes the state before conjunction, or incipient conjunction, 1988, 2106. Nine denotes conjunction, and ninety the same but in a greater degree; this because it is multiplied by ten, which denotes remains, and remains are the means of conjunction, 2075. Nine, ten, and eleven, in the account of Nebuchadnezzar's besieging Jerusalem (2 Kings xxv. 1 — 3), are to be understood in the opposite sense, as denoting the want of conjunction, on account of the defect of faith and charity, 2075. Nine (as the product of three), denotes what is full and complete, 2788. Ten, An age in the Word is ten years, 433. Ten and tenths denote remains, namely of good and truth, which are preserved in the internal man by the Lord, 575, sh, b7(S, 737, 755, 798, 813, 858, 1738, 1906, 2075, 2109, 2280, 2284, 2636, 3048, 4759, 5291, 5335, 7284, 7831, / f^ 10,221. Ten denotes any remaining affection of truth, 2141. Ten denotes a full state, the same as a hundred, 1988, 3107, 3176. Ten, predicated of the Lord, denotes divine goods and divine truths, 3740. Ten denotes very much or very great, 4077, 4179; simply much, 5958, 5959, 9487. Ten denotes fulness, a tenth part sufficiency, 8468, 8540. Tens named after hundreds and thousands, denote much, but in a less degree, 8715. Ten denotes all within the church, both those who are in good and truth and those who are without good, 4638. Ten denotes all, according to the subject predicated, 9416, 9636, 10,221. Ten de- notes all; a tenth, or one understood as a tenth, sufficient, 9595, 10,136. Ten and all its multiples, or quotients, denote much, fulness, the all, and when predicated of the Lord, what is infinite, 9716 and citations, 10,253. When ten is understood as the quotient of fifty, or the multiple of five, it denotes sufficiency, as much as conducive to uses, the same as those numbers, 9757. One tenth deal offered with a lamb, denotes celestial good; two tenths with a ram, spiritual good; three tenths with a bul- lock, natural good, 2180 end, 2276, 2280 end. Eleven, when related to ten, denotes all even to redundancy, 9616. Twelve, denotes faith, or all things of faith in one complex, but pri- marily the all of love, from which faith is derived, 575, 577, 1667, 3239, 3863. Generally, twelve denotes all truths or all things of faith, 2089, 2130 end, 2252,^8368; or all things of faith and charity, 7973 and citations. The number twelve is most holy, because it denotes all the holy principles of faith, 648. Instead of twelve in the Word the angels perceive an idea of all things of faith, this from the twelve tribes, 1988. Twelve denotes all the truths of faith by which the spiritual man is gifted with conscience, and such truths are precepts of charity, 2089, sh. 3272. Twelve is a universal number comprising all things of the church and the Lord's kingdom, in general and particular, 3268, particularly, 3863. When twelve is predicated of the sons of Jacob or the twelve tribes, it denotes all the doctrines of truth and good or of faith and love, understood under so many common or cardinal principles by which man is initiated into the church, or regenerated, 3858, 3863, 3913, 3939, 4603 and citations, 6640, 7973, 9389 and citations, 9404 and citations. In the opposite sense twelve denotes the common prin- ciples contrary to those of faith and love, namely of false and evil, 3926. The twelve tribes denote all truths and goods that proceed from the Lord into heaven, and that make heaven, 6335, 9603. The twelve apostles, like the twelve tribes, denote all things of faith, passages cited 6000, 7973 and citations. The twelve apostles, twelve thrones, twelve tribes, denote the primary truths of faith by which all judgment pro- ceeds, 2129 end, 2130 end. The half of twelve, and all its multiples, as 72, 144, 12,000, 144,000, have a like signification, namely all truths and goods in a complex, 7973. Thirteen, considered as between twelve and fourteen, denotes the intermediate state before temptations commence after the reception of good and truth, 1668, cited below (6). When regarded as the com- pound of ten and three it denotes remains, 2108, 2109, cited below, (6J. Fourteen, the end of a second seven, denotes the beginning of temp- tations, but especially from its following the age of boyhood, 1 670, cited below (6). Fourteen, like seven, or two weeks, like one, denotes a M 2 802 NUM whole period from beginning to end whether it be great or small, 4177, cited below (9), 8400. Fourteen days, or the fourteenth, denotes a holy state the same as seven, 7842, 7900. See also 6024, cited below (11). Fif teeny regarded as the compound of ten and five, denotes so few that it can hardly be conceived as anything, 798, 813, cited below (.5). When it rises from five, (understood as all of one part,) fifteen denotes as much as is sufficient, 9700, cited below (15). Regarded as next to fourteen it denotes a new state, similar to eight after seven, 8400, cited below (12), 9296, cited below (13). Sixteen, denotes what is every way full and complete the same as eight, 9660, cited below (15); see also 6024, cited below (11). Seventeen^ regarded as the compound of ten and seven, denotes the beginning and the end of temptations, also a new state; this from re- mains signified by ten, and holiness by seven, 7bOi 853, cited below (5); 4670, 6174, cited below (11). Eighteen, the product of six and three, denotes the holy things of combat or spiritual temptations, 1709, cited below (6). Nineteen, derives its signification from nine and ten, which see. Twenty, denotes generally the same as ten, but in a superior degree, namely, all the good and truth that the Lord insinuates into man from infancy to the end of his life, 2280. Twenty, regarded as two tens, denotes the good of remains, and the good of ignorance ; thus good, or the affection of good, but without temptations, 2141, 2280, cited below (6). Twenty, also considered as twice ten, denotes fulness, and all, every way, totally, altogether, 2905, 9641, 9747—9748, 9752— 9753, 9764, cited below (15). Predicated of the Lord, twenty denotes the good he acquired to himself, thus, his proprium, 4176, cited below, (9). Twenty denotes holy good and truth (which are remains), or holy truth only according to the subject; in its opposite application, what is not holy, sh, 4759, cited below, (11). Five, ten, twenty, a hundred, &c., have the same signification when regarded as quotients or multiples of the same, 5291. Twenty denotes fulness and all, alto- gether, every way, 9641, cited below (15). In a summary, that twenty denotes all, also the remains of good, fulness, holiness, the proprium of the Lord; passages cited, 10,222. The twentieth year of age denotes a state of intelligence in truth and good, because at that age reflection and rationality commence, 10,225; see also 4263, cited below (9). Twenty-one, the product of three and seven, denotes a holy state ; specifically its end or completion, 7842, 7903, cited below (12). Twenty-four, has the same signification as twelve; hence the twenty- four elders sitting round about the throne (Rev. iv. 2), denote the all of divine truth, 5313. Twenty-seven, denotes holiness, from the number three which rules in it, the signification of which is the same as seven, 901, cited below (5). Twenty-eight, considered as the product of four and seven, denotes the holy principle of conjunction, namely, of good and truth, 9600, cited below (15). Thirty, as the product of three and ten, denotes fulness of remains, hr, 647, sh, 5335, 7984; and fulness expressed generally, 9082, 9617. As the product of five and six^ it denotes somewhat of combat, 2I41« NUM 803 2276, 5335. It denotes somewhat, or a little, generally, 2966. In the opposite sense, it denotes a state of vastation, 2959. The circum- ference of the brazen sea is expressed by thirty, though not geometri- cally proportionate to the diameter, for the sake of its spiritual meaning ; also, that its three dimensions, five, ten, and thirty, denote what is holy, 5291. In the generations of Eber, thirty denotes the beginning of a new state, 1347, 1351. See below (6), 2141, 2276 (9), 4264; (11), 5335; (13), 9082, 5335; (15), 9617; (19), 10,235; (21), 5335. Thirty-three: see 6024, cited below (11). Forty, denotes the duration of temptations and also of vastation, from the beginning to the end, whether the period be long or short, in a word, temptations, sh. 730, 760, 1847, 2141, 2272—2273, 6505, 8537. Forty denotes the duration of temptations of every kind, because the Lord suffered himself to be tempted forty days, and all things in the ancient and Jewish churches had reference to him, 730; see below, 8098. The full number signifying temptation is forty-two, being a multiple of six (the working days) by seven, but the round number forty is used in place of it, 730. 'Forty days and forty nights denotes in general all temptations, in particular the duration of each temptation, 730. Forty days and nights denotes the grievous temptation sustained between the infernal loves of the will and celestial love, 760. Forty nights added to forty days denotes the anxieties of temptation, 786. Forty days without nights is predicated of the state after temptations ; the end of forty days, of the duration of a prior state and the beginning of the following, 862. Forty days and nights considered as the product of four times ten, denotes the full state when the interiors are opened to heaven, and the temptations then endured ; hence, forty also denotes fulness, 9437, 9643, 10,685. Forty, and in a superior degree four hundred, denotes the price of redemption, because effected by tempta- tions, 2966. The Lord was forty days in the desert, because forty denotes temptations, and the desert the state of those who undergo them; for the same reason, the flood lasted forty days, and the Israehtes were in the wilderness forty years, 8098; see below, (Four hundred and Four hundred and thirty) : also, (5), 730, 786, 862 ; (6), 2270 ; (7), 3281 ; (9), 3468; (II), 6175, 6502; (12), 8537; (14), 9437; (15), 9643; (21) 9937. Forty-two, is the full number, the signification of which is generally expressed by the round number forty, 730, cited above. Forty-two, understood as six weeks, has a similar signification to six days of one week ; it denotes the full consummation of a former church, and the com- mencement of a new one, which is as the Sabbath or seventh week, 9741. Forty-five, as the product of five and nine, denotes some degree of conjunction, namely, a small degree of good, yet conjoined with truths, fir. 2141, HI. 2269. Forty-nine and Fifty, see 8802 cited below (13). Fifty, denotes a full state of truths, which are also filled with goods, because it follows forty-nine, the product of seven times seven, 2141, cited below (6), ill. 2252, 9608, 9611, 9623—9624, cited below (15). As the product of five and ten, it denotes extreme fewness of remains, 646, 813 ; the latter cited below (5).

Seventy denotes fulness in order, 6024 end, 6642. It denotes all the good of truth in one complex, the same as twelve, 8369. It denotes fulness, all, accord- ing to the subject, 9376. The twelve princes of the tribes, denote all primary truths, the seventy elders all goods from truths ; personally, all who are in good from truths, or in truths from good, 9404, 94 1 1 ; see below (11) 6024, 6507; (12) 6641; (14) 9376; (20) 6508; (21) 9404, 433. Seventy-two, like six and twelve, from which it rises, and also its multiples 144, 12,000, 144,000, denote all things of charity and faith, or of good and truth in the complex, 5291, 7973. Seventy -five, from seventy added to five, denotes somewhat of holi- ness, or of the holy divine, 1429 cited below (6).

Oaks and oak-groves, on account of their twisted branches, denote perceptions grounded in scientifics, thus the first and earliest, 1442, 1443, ill. 2144, 2831, 4552. Abram said to arrive at the oak-grove of Moreh, denotes the Lord's first perception when the scientifics of boyhood were implanted, 1442, 1443, 1616.

OBAL, one of the sons of Joktan, denotes a ritual of the church named after Eber, 1245—1247. OBEDIENCE, Obey, to [ohedientia, ohedire]. Obedience, when predicated of the Lord, denotes the union of his divine essence with his human essence by temptations; to hearken, understood of hearkening to a voice, has the same signification, sh. 3381. To obey implies to do, or bring into act; hence, it has reference to the existence of actual evils or actual falses, and the contrary, 4551, 5368, 8686, 8690 collated; see below, 9398. Application and obedience is predicated of the natural or external man, which ought to obey the internal, ill. 5368. Obedience denotes reception ; the obedience of the peoples to Shiloh, the reception of divine truths, 6374. Obedience implies consent, but the latter expression is higher or more interior, 6513. Obedience is predicated of the first state in regeneration when the truth is brought into act, be- cause it is commanded, but not yet from affection, 8690. In illustra- tion of the foregoing— that Hebrew servants denote those who act from the obedience of faith or from truths; freemen and lords, those who act from the affection of charity, 8987 ; further ill. and the signification of boring through the servant's ear explained, 8988—8990. Obedience is predicated of the soul, of the understanding, of faith, in which case it is denoted by hearing ; but it is also predicated of the will or the affec- tion of love, in which case it is denoted by doing, 9398; compare 9404. The sons of Ammon are called the Obedience of the Philistines, because of falses received from them, 2468. Description of certain spirits who are called Obediences, 4653. See Ear, Hearing. OBJECTS, the extension of thought from, variously ill. 6601; compare 1389. External objects, the means of thinking concerning internal things, 2143, 2275, 2995, 3857 end. That the objects of in- ternal sight are scientifics and truths, 6084; further ill. 9723. OBLATION. See Sacrifice. OBLIVION. See to Forget. OBOLI. See Weight. i OBSCURE, Obscuration. The life of man in the body is so obscure, compared with his interior life, that myriads of perceptions merge in one, 2367, 2380. Man in the affection of truth is in a state of obscurity compared with him who is in the affection of good, 2708. The state of the spiritual church is obscure compared with the state of the celestial church, 2708, Mh ill. 2715; see below, 6256; passages cited, 6289, 6904, 7313, 8819, '8928. The literal sense of the Word is obscure compared with the spiritual sense, ill. 3438; further ill. by a cloud and glory in the cloud, 8443. Obscurity is predicated in regard both to the understanding of truth and the wisdom of good, 3693. Good incipient, is obscure; when perfect it is lucid, 3708; see below, 3833. The natural mind is obscure, respectively, because in the ulti- mate of order, where all the interiors coalesce together as in one general form, 3720 end. The state of initiation before good is conjoined with truth is obscure; the state of their conjunction clear, 3833. The dif- ference between obscurity in the natural world, and spiritual obscurity illustrated; that the latter in all its kinds is from the non-reception of intelligence, which is hght from the Lord, 5092. The kinds of spi- ritual obscurity are three ; first, that originating from the false of evil, second, from ignorance of the truth, third, from the state of the exteriors compared with that of the interiors, 5092. [Obscurity from ignorance of the truth is more in the external man than in the internal, 5092. E. S.] Scientific truths are obscure unless good from the Lord is received into them, for by no other means can divine truth or divine light be received, 5219; compare 5700. The obscurity produced when good scientifics are exterminated by scientifics of no use may be en- lightened, but not the obscurity arising from falses, 5219. A new state is predicated of the natural man about to be regenerated when he comes into obscurity bv the extermination of truths, 5224 ; com- pare 5207, 5208, 5217, 5222, 5270, and see Ignorance (2682, 4251). The internal is brought into obscurity when truths are exter- minated in the external, but is in clearness when they are received, 5224. Good and truth are obscured by their procedure to externals, and in proportion to their remoteness from the internal, 5920. Spi- ritual good is obscure, because from the natural man, 6256. The light of the world is rendered obscure by the influx of heavenly hght, 6865. Obscuration of the whole natural mind, signified by darkness in Egypt, is caused by the influx of heavenly light, 7645. Obscuration of the Lord is predicated according to the appearance ; while the truth is, all obscurity is in man, variously ill. 1838, 2708, 4060, 5092, 5097. The Lord is obscured in all who do not live according to his commandments, ill. 8512—8516. The state of spiritual obscurity represented by life in a desert, 2708, 6904, 7313 ; by evening and night, 3833, 3438, 3693, 5092; by darkness, 7645, 8928 ; by dreaming, 5219; by the north and west respectively, 3708; bv smoke, 8819; by a cave, and by the fissure of a rock, 2463, 2935, 2971, 6548, 6556, 10,582. The obscure state of the Jews, in their day, and of all who do not receive the interior truths of the Word represented, 8819, 8928, 10,551. See Darkness, Shade. OBSERVANCES. Things to be observed [ohservanda] have refer- ence to the whole contents of the Word in general ; preceptSy to all its internals; statutes, to its externals; and laws, to all in particular. 828 ODO ODO 829 3382. To observe things to be observed is of the same import as to preserve or keep [servare] things to be kept, 3382. OBSESSION. At this day there are not external obsessions as of old, but internal, and this chiefly by sirens, 1983 end; 4/93. The evil, who have no conscience, are thus obsessed, and are internally mad, however decorous in externals, 1983 end, 5990. Obsessions in ancient times were caused by spirits flowing into man from their exterior memory, 2477 end. When this is the case, a man can no longer think from his own memory, or act his own life, 2477 end, 2478. Adulterers, beyond all others, desire to obsess men, and by them return into the world again, but the Lord detains them shut up m their hells, 2752, 5990. Sirens continually endeavour to obsess the interiors, by influx into the taste ; the author's experience ; and that interior obsessions are still eflfected, 4793. Were spirits able to speak by the mouth of man, it would be obsession, which is not permitted, and for this reason they do not know they are with him, 5862. There are very many spirits at this day who seek to enter into the speech and actions of men ; much of the preceding repeated, 5990. How the prophets were possessed by spirits occupying their bodies ; the difi^erence between these and the spirits spoken of above; farther experience of the author, 6212. That there is an obsession by falses and evils, in states of temptation, 6829. See Magic (4, 5). OBSTINATE. See Hard. (7272, &c.) OBSTIPATION, OR Constipation (these words being used by the author in the same sense), is predicated of falses and evils when man is wholly given up to them, and thus closed up against heaven, 8210, 8232, 8334. Obstipations of the brain, and the spirits who cause them described, 4054. OBSTRICTION, or Compulsion, called holy, because, in the case treated of, from conjugial love, 6179. OBSTRUCTION, of the interior vessels by evil, mentioned as the first cause of disease, 5726. Description of certain spirits who cause obstructions, 5718. OCCIPIJT. Description of certain very dangerous and clandestine spirits who act under the occiput and cerebellum, 4227. Good spirits pertaining to the same region, 4403. OCCULT. See Secret; and ^o Hide. OCCULTATION, the, of good and truth, predicated of the state in which it is remotely or not at all perceived, 5962, 5964. OCEAN. See Sea. ODIUM. See Hatred. ODOUR. 1. Sweet Odours, denote the good of love and the truth of faith, because the spheres of love and faith which surround angels and good spirits are perceived as odours, 925. The spheres of charity and faith, when perceived as odours, are most delightful, resembling the smell of flowers, of lilies, and of various kinds of aromas in endless variety, 1519. The perception of truth from good is like the smell of a harvest-field ; and odour, which is the natural perceptivity of what is grateful, corresponds to spiritual perceptivity, 3577. Odour corres- ponds to perception, such as of truth from good, or of faith from charity ; also, perceptions themselves, at the good pleasure of the Lord, are turned into odours, 4748 ; the latter repeated, 5621, 10,254. From the correspondence of odour to perception, aromatics, incense, and odours in ointments, were made representative, 4748, 5621, 9474; see below (7). All aromatics or sweet-smelling odours, signify truths from good, 5621, 9475. Sweet odours denote all that is grateful to the Lord, thus the good of faith and charity; passages cited, 7161, 9475. The smoke from incense denotes the elevation of worship from love and charity; its fragrant odour, the grateful perception and reception of such worship by the Lord, 10,177, 10,298. Odour denotes perception according to the subject treated of; in a high sense, the perceptivity of interior truth from the good of love ; remarks on sensations in general, 10,199, 10,254. Odour denotes perception in both senses, according to the quality of the love ; this, because grateful or ungrateful is predi- cated of perception, from the afiTection of love; passages cited, 10,292. See Aromatics, Incense ; as to the odour of the oil of anointing, see Oil (5). 2. The Sense of Smelling, corresponds to the affection of perceiving, 4404, 4624, 4625. Specifically, the smell denotes perceptivity of in- terior truth from the good of love, 10,199. 3. The Correspondence of Odour or Smell, and the Organ of Smelling, in seriatim passages concerning the Grand Man, 4624 — 4633. In the province of the nostrils they are all in common perception, with a dif- ference as to exterior and interior, 4625, 4626, 4627. Spheres of spiritual life such as they perceive, are turned into odours, in other words, perception may be called spiritual odour, and odour really des- cends therefrom, 4626 ; see also 4748 cited above (1). Odours are from two origins, the perception of good and the perception of evil, these unpleasant and stinking, but those grateful, 4628. Some of the former described, 4629, 4630, 4631; cited below (4). See Nose. 4. That Spheres are rendered sensible by Odours (as well as by other efiFects, which are previously treated of), 1514 — 1520. The odour of hypocritical deceivers is like the stench from vomiting, 1514. The odour of those who study eloquence for the sake of the admiration it draws to them, is like the smell of burnt bread, 1514. The odour of those who indulge in the mere pleasures of life, and of adulterers, is excrementitious ; those of hatred, revenge, and cruelty, is cadaverous, 1514; see below, 4631. The odour of the sordidly avaricious is like the smell of mice, 1514. Those who persecute the innocent, smell like bugs, 1514. The odour of sirens, whose interiors are filthy, but their exteriors beautiful, is described as deadly, 1515. A vinous odour, said to proceed from those who delight in the blandishments of friendship and lawful love, 1517. The rich who have lived in magnificence, with- out conscience, dwell most vilely in the other life, and exhale a sphere like the stench of teeth, 1631; see below, 4630. The sphere of those whose thoughts consist of mere scandals against the Lord, is perceived as putrid water, and like water defiled by things refuse and fcetid, 4629. The sphere of those who are absorbed in worldly business, and are called invisible natural spirits (because they cannot be seen in a spiritual sphere), is like the stench of rotten teeth, and like burnt horn or bone, 4630; the same characters further described 5573. The sphere of robbers and murderers is cadaverous ; that of adulterers excrementi- tious ; that of adulterers prone to cruelty, mixed cadaverous and excre- fr^ 830 OFF OIL 831 mentitious, 4631. That such odours are grateful to those who are in hell, because correspondent with their hfe, 4628, 5387, 7161. Gene- rally, that these odours cannot be perceived by man unless his interior sensations are opened, 1514 end, 4628. Also, that they are not always manifested, but are variously tempered by the Lord, 1520. 5. The Odour of a Corpse when man is resuscitated, is perceived by spirits like the aromatic odour of an embalmed body; this arises from the presence of celestial angels, and its effect is to prevent the approach of evil spirits, 175, 1518. 6. Odour of Rest, which is an expression frequently occurring in the Word, denotes what is pleasant, grateful, acceptable, 925. An odour of rest is to be understood as the odour of peace, or the sweetness of the perception of peace [gratiim pads], 925; or, the perceptivity of peace ; passages cited, 10,054, 10,085. Odour of rest denotes what is grateful, from the good of love, 5943. 7. The Odour of Incense, was introduced into representatives from correspondence with the spheres of love and faith in heaven, 925 ; more particularly, 4748, 5621. To make incense, or odour similar to it, unlawfully, denotes the imitation of divine worship from the pro- prium, 10,309. See Incense, Frankincense. 8. The Odour, or Smell, of his Raiment, like the Odour of a Field, predicated of Jacob (Gen. xxvii. 27), denotes natural good and truth, which is grateful when it accords with celestial and spiritual good and truth, 925 end, 3575—3577. OFFENCE [ofendiculum]. See Scandal. OFFERING, OR Present [munus]. From the custom of offering the first-fruits, &c., in the representative church, a gift or offering denotes worship, 349. Presents offered to kings and priests denote initiation ; those put on the altar, worship, sh. 4262. Presents to kings and priests were made to obtain favours, and they denote such things as ought to be offered to God from freedom grounded in love, 5619, 5671, 5675. The presents offered to Jehovah were testifications of offerings from the heart ; thus they testified to the reception of good and the action of grace, ill. and sh. 9293. Gifts and offerings, which (with the Jews) consisted in sacrifices, holocausts, meat-offerings and the like, denote the interiors of worship, thus states of faith and love, which are really given by the Lord, though they appear to be from man, 9939; in a comprehensive summary, 10,042. See Sacrifice, to Give, Gift. The offering of Cain denotes worship from faith without charity ; that of Abel, worship from charity, 348, 350.

The offerings of the wise men, gold and frankincense and myrrh, denote celestial and spiritual love, or the good of love and the good of faith, and both conjoined in the external man, 4262, 9293. The offerings of the kings of Tharshish and the Isles denote worship from the doctrinals of faith and love; the gifts of the kings of Sheba and Seba, from the knowledges of good and truth, 9293. OFFICER. See Guard, Government. OFFICES OR Uses, in a spiritual expression are goods, because the good of charity consists in use, 6073. See Use. OHALIM, the Hebrew word translated tabernacles, derives its signification from the holy [principle] of good; succoth, translated tents, from the holv [principle] of truth, 4391. See Tent. OHOLAI OHOLIBA. See Aholo (in Supplement). OIL [oleum]. 1. It was with the oil of olives and aromatics that they anointed priests and kings, and it was olive oil they used for lamps, 886. Olive denotes the good of charity; oil, the celestial prin- ciple of love, 886; in general, the good of love, 3728; or the divine good of love, 4582; see below 9780, 10,261. Oil of olives represented all that is celestial, because it is the very soul or essential of the tree ; as the celestial principle, or the good of love and charity, is the very soul or essential of faith, 886. Oil and wine, respectively, denote the good of love and the good of faith, 4581, cited below (3). Oil and wine are both implied in Deut. xvi. 1 3, oil for good from which truth pro- ceeds, wine for truth from good, 9296. Oil to make light, denotes internal love in mutual love and charity, ill. 9473. Oil of olives among the offerings for the tent, denotes the good of spiritual love, which is the good of charity and faith, 9712, 9780.

Oil of olive denotes divine celestial good, which is only one good because infinite, but is yet distinguished as celestial or spiritual according to reception, ill. 10,261. The vine and olive are sometimes named together; the vine for the internal good of the spiritual church, the olive for that of the celestial, 10,261. 2. Olive, and Olive Tree[oliva, olea], denote good, 886, 4197. Wood of the olive tree denotes the good of truth, or the good of the spiritual church, for which reason the doors and posts of the temple were of oHve wood, 7847 end, 9278 end; see below 9510, 10,261. A vine and vineyard denotes the spiritual church and kingdom; an olive tree and olive-yard, the celestial; both as to good, br. sh. 9139; more at large, 9277. Wood of the olive, from which the cherubim were made, de- notes the good of love, the same as oil, 9510, 10,261. Oliveyards, vineyards, gardens, rosaries, and shrubberies, in heaven, represent living states; stony and barren places, the reverse of life, 9841. The olive (fruit) denotes celestial love; olive tree, the perception and affec- tion of that love, sh. 10,261. By the Mount of Olives, is signified the divine good of the divine love, 10,261. See below (7). 3. Anointing [unctio].* Kings were anointed with oil poured from a horn, to represent truth from good, because oil denotes good, 2832; the latter cited, 3009. Statues were anointed with oil to represent the good of love as the life of faith or truth, 3728. Oil was mixed with flour in the sacrifices to represent the celestial principle of love and the principle of charity, 3880, 4581 . By setting up a statue of stone, and pouring wine and oil on it, was represented the process of the glorifica- tion of the Lord and of the regeneration of man, namely, from ultimate * The article, Vol. I., is superseded by its fuller treatment here, and will be omitted in future editions. VOL. II. o 832 OIL |. OIL 833 tl truth, to interior truth and good, and finally to the good of love, 4582 ; see below 9954. Oil in all the anointings represented the good of love from the Lord, 9277 end. The anointing of things was their inaugu- ration to represent the Lord as to divine good, and the procedure of the good of love from him, 9474, but particularly 9954. Stones when set up as statues were anointed because they represent truths, which have no life without good, ill, and sh, 9954. Shields and weapons were anointed because they denote truths combating against falses, and truths without good do not prevail against them, ilL and ah. 9954. The altar and all its vessels, the tent and all it contained, were anointed because they were to represent the holy things of heaven and the church, thus holy worship, which is not such without the good of love, ill, and ah. passages cited, 9954. The priests and their garments, Aaron and his sons, were anointed, because the priesthood represented the Lord as to the whole work of salvation, and all inauguration into the holy things of heaven and the church is by the good of love, ill, and sh, 9954. Prophets were anointed because they represented the Lord as to the doctrine of divine truth, thus as the Word, br, sh. 9954. Kings were anointed, and especially called the anointed of Jehovah, because they represented the Lord as to judgment from divine truth and as to the divine human, fully sh, and ill, 9954. The people commonly anointed themselves and others with oil (but not with the oil of holiness used in all the preceding instances), because common oil denotes gladness and joy, which are of the good of love, br, sh, 9954 end. Anointing the head (of Aaron) represented divine good in the whole human, because the head comprehends the whole man, sh. 10,011. By anointing was represented divine good; by filling the hand, divine truth, and power thereby, t7/. and passages cited, 10,019. By the sprinkling of blood, at the same time that the oil of anointing was put upon Aaron and his garments, was represented the reciprocal union of divine truth and divine good in the Lord's divine human, ill. and^A. 10,067. Whatever was inaugurated to represent the Lord (by the custom of anoiuting), represented him also in the angels of heaven and the men of the church, ill. 10,125. Generally, that anointing was to induce the representation of divine good, and that hence all the holy things of the church, as the altar, the tent, all the furniture of the tent, and likewise Aaron and his sons who ministered, and their garments, were anointed with oil, 10,268 and following passages. 4. That the Sick were anointed with Oil, and thus healed, because oil denotes the good of charity, 9780. 5. Oil of anointing, or Ointment. Aromatics were used in the oint- ments because they denote interior truths, by which good comes to be perceived ; thus, to represent the revelation and very formation of good, 6r. j7/. 9474; compare 9781. The aromatics, from which the oil of anointing was made, belong to the celestial class, that is, they denote celestial perceptions and affections, as distinguished from spiritual, 10,254; but that aromatics of incense belong to the spiritual class, 10,295. Four aromatic spices were used in the oil of anointing, namely, best myrrh [myrrha nobilis']^ which denotes the perception of exterior or sensual truth in the external man; aromatic cinnamon^ which denotes the perception and affection of natural truth, also in the external man ; aromatic calamus [sweet cane]y which denotes exterior truth in the internal man; and cassia, which denotes interior truth; the oil of the olive, with which these were mingled, denotes the one good, from which proceed the affections and perceptions of those truths, 10,256, 10,264. The preparation of the oil of anointing represents the generation and formation of the good of love in man by the Lord; showing that it is formed by truths from the Word, first external, afterwards more and more interior, br, ill, 10,266. This oil called an ointment of ointments, denotes the one good in which all the affections and perceptions are comprehended, ill, 10,264. Called the work of a maker of ointments, denotes its procedure from the Lord; in the highest sense, the influx and operation of the divine itself in the human of the Lord, 10,264, 10,265. Called most holy, denotes the representation of the Lord as to the divine human, which is the all in heaven and the very principle of holiness therein, 10,267. Its sanctifying the things on which it was put, denotes the influx and presence of the Lord in the worship of the representative church, ill. 10,276. The man who should make an ointment like it to be cut off from his people, denotes the separation and spiritual death of those who cunningly imitate the affections of good and truth, 10,284—10,288. 6. That the Lord is called the Anointed or Messiah, because the divine good was in him, and the divine proceeding from that good, in his human when he was in the world, sh. 9954. 7. Harmony of Passages, The dove returning with an olive leaf plucked off in her mouth, denotes some little of the truth of faith from the good of charity, 884—886. Jacob anointing the head of the stone with oil denotes the dominion of good over truth, 3728, 4582.

Aaron and his sons anointed, denotes the state of divine good from the Lord, and of the divine truths of such good, in the spiritual church and kingdom and in the Lord's human, 9951—9957, 10,011. Cakes unleavened, mixed with oil, and wafers unleavened anointed with oil, used in the ceremony of consecration, denote purification respectively in the celestial medium and in the external man, 9993—9994, 10,078, 10,079. The oil of anointing put upon Aaron and his sons, and upon their garments, at the same time as the blood, denotes the union of divine good with divine truth, reciprocating the union of divine truth with divine good, and this in all the heavens, 10,067—10,069. The young bullock of the sin offering anointed, denotes the good of innocence in the natural man purified from evils and falses, and then the influx and presence of the Lord therein, 10,122—10,128. A green flourishing olive tree, fair in fruit, &c. (Jer. xi. 16), denotes the celestial or most ancient church, which was the fundamental of the Jewish Church, 886. His beauty [honor^ shall be as the olive tree, said of Israel (Hosea, xiv. 7), denotes the good of charity in the future church, 886 ; compare 10,261. Two o2 III 834 OLD \l olive trees near the candlestick, called two sons of pure oil (anointed ones, Zech. iv. 3, 11, 14), denote love and charity, or celestial and spi- ritual good, 886, 9277, 9780; compare 10,261. Thy wife like a fruitbearing vine, thy sons like olive plants (Ps. cxxviii. 3), denotes the spiritual church and the truths of faith, which are called olive plants because from the good of charity, 886, 10,261. Gleanings of grapes Hke the shaking of an olive tree (Is. xvii. 6, xxiv. 13), denotes celestial remains, 886; compare 10,261. Thou shalt tread the olives, and not anoint thee with oil; and new wine, and shall not drink wine (Micah vi. 15, and the parallel passages in Deut. xxix. 30), denotes the abundance of doctrinals, both of good and truth, which are nevertheless rejected, 886, 9277. The two witnesses called two olive trees, and two candlesticks (Rev. xi.), denotes celestial and spiritual good and the truths of such good, 4197, 9780.

They make a covenant with the Assy- nans, and oil is carried into Egypt, said of Ephraim (Hosea xii. 1), denotes the perversion of the intellectual part by reasonings, and the defilement of good by scientifics, 9780. His feet shall stand upon the Mount of Olives, &c., predicated of the Lord (Zech. xiv. 3, 4), denotes the divine love from which he fought against the hells, and the good of love and charity upon which the church is founded, 9780, 10,261. The division of the Mount of Olives in the same prophecy, denotes the state of heaven and the church at the Lord's coming, 10,261. The cedar and the oil tree [lignum olet] to be planted in the desert (Is. xli. 19), de- notes spiritual and celestial good given among the nations out of the church, 10,261. Your vineyards, your figs, and your olive trees (Amos iv. 9, and the parallel expressions in Hab. iii. 17), denote the good of the external church, and the good of the internal church, both spiritual and celestial, 10,261 ; compare 9277.

A vineyard in the horn of a son of oil (fruitful hill. Is. v. 1), denotes the good of faith from the good of love in which the church is planted, 9139. OINTMENT [unguentum]. See Oil (5), Aromatics. OLD, OLD AGE, ELDERS [senex, senectus, seniores], 1. In the internal sense, old age denotes the fruition of all good, because none grow old in heaven, but continually tend to a youthful and more perfect life, 1854, 3016; see below 4676. Old age denotes the completion of a state, according to the subject treated of; when predicated of the Lord, the putting off of the human, and putting on the divine, 2 1 98, 2624, 3016. Old men and old women denote confirmed goods and truths; boys and girls, such as are recent; in the opposite sense, evils and falses, 2348, 2465. An old man denotes wisdom in which is inno- cence, ill, 3183. Old age denotes the putting off what is old, and put- OLD 835 1 ; ting on what is new ; thus, a new state or act in the representation of divine things by the patriarchs, 3254, 3492; or the end of a representa- tion, 6257. Old and full of days, denotes a new state of life, 4620, 5804. The spirit or internal man knows nothing of old age ; how this consists with the influx of thought in the body, 4676. Elders denote chief points of wisdom, and chief points of intelligence ; namely, such things of the life as agree with good, and, distinct from these, such as agree with truth, 6524, 6525 ; compare 8578. Elders have this signi- fication because by old men are meant the wise, and abstractly wisdom itself; also, the intelligent, and therefore intelligence itself; the former, sh. 6524 ; the latter, br, 6890. lu the opposite sense, elders denote the contrary of wisdom and its especial verities, 6524 end. The elders of Israel sometimes represent celestial men, in which case they are called wise, intelligent, knowing, according to the order of celestial life, 121. The elders of Israel, especially, denote the intelligent in the spi- ritual church ; or the primary doctrines of intelligence and wisdom, thus, which are in accordance with truth and good, 6890, 7062, 7912, 8578, 8585, 8773, 9376. The seventy elders, considered as the repre- sentative chiefs of the people, denote all who are in the external sense of the Word only, 9421—9422. Generally, elders denote all who are in good from truth, and in truth from good ; abstractly, goods derived from truth, 9404, 9411, 9930. As to the elder-born, see Elder. 2. Harmony of Passages [so many years old is not according to the Hebrew idiom, but a son of so many years ; for such passages therefore refer to the article Numbers, 6, &c.] The men of the city from a boy even to an old man besetting the house of Lot (Gen. xix. 4), denotes falses and evils, recent as well as confirmed, against the good of charity, 2348. Our father old, and not a man in the earth, said by the daughters of Lot (chap. xix. 31), denotes the state of the church in which there is no longer any good or truth, 2465. Thou shalt be buried in a good old age, said to Abram (chap. xv. 15), denotes the fruition of all celes- tial and spiritual good by those who are in the Lord, 1854. Abraham and Sarah called old (chap, xviii. 1 1 ), denotes the human in the Lord as to rational good and rational truth, about to be put off, 2198, 2203, 2204. Isaac born and called the son of Abraham's old age (chap. xxi. 2), denotes the existence of the divine rational in the fulness of state when the human was put off, 2624, 3154. Abraham said to be old and come into days, and Jehovah blessed him in all things (chap. xxiv. 1), denotes the state when the human of the Lord was made divine, 3016. Abraham said to die in a good old age, old, and full (satur, chap. xxv. 8), denotes the end of that representation and the com- mencement of a new one by Isaac, 3253 — 3256. Isaac old and his eyes dim (chap, xxvii. 1), denotes the commencement of a new state of the representation, when the natural man is to be illustrated, because the rational, as yet, has no discernment therein, 3492, 3493, 3497, 3498. Isaac dying, old and full of days, and his sons Esau and Jacob said to bury him (chap. xxxv. 29), denotes the fulness of that state and the resuscitation or newness of life in the natural man, 4618 — 4621. Joseph loved by Israel because he was the son of his old age (chap, xxxvii. 3), denotes the conjunction of the divine spiritual of the rational with the divine spiritual of the natural (the change of state when the life of the one is in the other being now represented), 4675, 4676; see •1 lli I 836 OMN also 5678, 5803, 5804, 5807, 6092—6098. The eyes of Israel dim because of his old age (chap, xlviii. 10), denotes the obscure appercep- tion of the natural man made spiritual, and the representation again about to change, 6256 — 6258. All the servants of Pharoah, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the laud of Egypt said to go up with Joseph to bury his father (chap. 1. 7), denotes the adjunction of scien- tifics, all such as agree with good, and all such as agree with truth, when the church is resuscitated, 6523 — 6525. All the elders of Israel gathered together, to receive the message of Moses (Exod. iii. 16), de- notes the intelligent in the spiritual church instructed by truth divine, or the law from the divine, 6890—6891, 7062. All the elders of Israel called by Moses, and commanded concerning the passover (chap. xii. 21), denotes the illustration of their understanding by the influx and presence of truth divine, when about to be liberated from falses, 7912. Moses to pass on before the people with some of the elders of Israel (chap. xvii. 5), denotes the leading and teaching of the spiritual, from primary truths, 8577 — 8578. Aaron and all the elders of Israel coming to eat bread with Moses' father-in-law (chap, xviii. 12), denotes the truth of doctrine and the primary truths of the church, appropriated from good, 8681—8682. Moses said to call the elders of the people, when they reached Sinai, and to put the words of Jehovah before them (chap. xix. 7), denotes the election of essential or primary truths whereby to form good, and influx from the divine, 8773, 8774. Nadab and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel to ascend with Moses (chap. xxiv. 1, 9), denotes doctrine from the Word in both senses, and the chief truths of the church in accordance with good, 9375 — 9376, 9403 — 9404. The elders commanded to sit down, while Moses ascended higher (ver. 14), denotes the state of those who remain in the external sense, 9421 — 9422 cited above. Four and twenty elders described as sitting round the throne (Rev. iv. 2), denotes the all of divine truth, and the all of faith in the complex, 5313. OLD TESTAMENT. See Word. OLIVE. See Oil (2). OMEGA. See Alpha. OMER. See Measure. OMNIPOTENCE, is predicated of quantity considered as magni- tude, thus, of infinite good, of divine love, of the divine will; but omniscience is predicated of quantity considered as multitude, thus, of infinite truth, of divine intelligence, 3934. It is the good of charity that corresponds to omnipotence, the truth of faith to omniscience, 3934. The acknowledgment of the Lord's omnipotence was represented by parts of the sacrifice put in the hollow of Aaron's hand and the hands of his sons; passages cited 10,082. It would be possible for the Lord to lead man to good by omnipotent force, but it is an inviolable divine law that charity and faith are to be implanted in freedom, 5854. OMNIPRESENCE, the, of the Lord in heaven is the cause of its universal form, which is that of one man, 1276. The omnipresence of the Lord in the holy supper could not be acknowledged in the church unless his human were divine, 10,738. OMNISCIENCE, is predicated of divine truth; omnipotence of divine good, 3934. Omniscience includes prcevidence and providence, and is an attribute of divine good, 8688. Omniscience is predicated of \ OPE 837 the Lord because the divine and the human are reciprocally united in him, 2569; compare 5477. ON, the priest of, denotes good; the subject here being the reci- procal marricige of good and truth, 5332. See Tribes (Joseph), ONAN, denotes evil from the false of evil, in which the Jewish nation came to be principled, 4823, 4824, 4836, 4837. His trespass denotes their aversion and hatred against the good and truth of the church, and the destruction of conjugial love, 4836 — 4838. See Jew (6), Tribes (Judah), ONCE. See Numbers (17), 10,209, 10,211. ONE. See Numbers (417). ONYCHA, denotes the afl'ection of interior truth in the natural man, 10,293. See Incense. ONYX-STONE [schoam-lapis]. See Precious Stones. OPEN, to [aperire\t predicated of opening a sack or a box, denotes observation, introspection, investigation, 5494, 5656, 6735; also, mani- festation, 5768. To open a door of a house or room is to communicate, 5370. To open the womb, has reference to the conception of truth and good, and the production of the doctrinals of the church, 3856, 3967, sh. 4918. To open the womb is to give the power by which truth may be born, and this is done by good; hence the first-born is called the opening of the womb, and denotes good, 4925 end. To open the eyes, denotes internal dictate (which is intermediate between perception and conscience), sh. 212. How the sense of the soul is opened, and solace afibrded in certain states, 2693. 2. The Open Mind. When man is in the true order of his creation, all his thoughts, ideas, words, and actions, are open to heaven, and to the Lord, 99. The ideas of the thought when in this order are like pictured images, opening with inexpressible variety and beauty, one scene within another, 1869. The ideas of children, especially, are open to the Lord, as becomes manifest when they repeat the Lord's Prayer, 229 1 . The nations without the church have their minds open and re- ceptive of truth, Uke children, and hence they receive truth, if not in this life, in the next, 9256. 3. Open Truths. So far as scientifics are loved for themselves alone they are closed against the Lord, but so far as they are regarded for the sake of human society and the Lord's kingdom, they are more and more opened, 1472. Scientific and rational truths are vessels which ought to be open to the influx of celestial and spiritual truths ; hence all instruction is only an opening of the way to interior things, 1495; the former especially, 9922 and citations seriatim. The interaal can- not flow into the external unless its organic vessels are open, the means of opening which are scientifics, knowledges, pleasures, and delights imbibed by means of the senses, 1563. The way of influx for the internal man may be either opened or closed by scientifics, 4156, 8628 ; 9922 cited above. When the scientifics of the natural man are open to influx, they are disposed into order and vivified by light from the inter- nal man, 3086, 4156; 10,067 end. Scientifics are of various degrees, and they open the mind according to such degrees, which are more and more interior, 5934; see below (4), 9594. All truths that are really such are living, and open to the Lord, and this in the other life is manifestly perceived, ill. 8868. The truths of faith and goods of 838 OPE m love are what open and form the internal man, 10,067 end; 10,099 end. 4. The opening of the Interior Mind, can only take place with those who are in innocence, in love to the Lord, and in charity towards the neighbour, 3224, 3427. The interiors are opened by illumination from the Word, for thus influx and communication is received from heaven, and through heaven from the Lord, 3708. Ideas of truth and good, or the interiors of man, are open to heaven when he is in charity, but otherwise they are open to the world, 7506. The loves of self and the world must be removed in order that the way may be opened for the love of the Lord and the neighbour to flow in, 7750. The interiors of the regenerated are open to the Lord, and hence the whole mind is dis- posed in a celestial form from inmost to outmost, 8456. Whatever is done according to divine order is open to the Lord, and contains heaven in it, but whatever is done not according to order is closed against the Lord and heaven, ill. 8513. The intellectual part of the mind is open in all who are in good, and hence in the afl^ection of truth, and such are illustrated when they read the Word, because angels are in consort with them, 8694. The interiors of all are open to heaven if they are prin- cipled in good, and they perceive by virtue of influx from the angels that the Word is holy, 8971, 8975; further ill. 10,551. The internal man cannot be opened in those who know what evil is, and yet do not repress it, hence they cannot have spiritual life, 9075. When the fire of evil passes from the voluntary part into the intellectual part of man, the intellectual is closed above or towards heaven, and opened below or towards hell, ill. 9144. The internal man cannot be opened in those who live evilly, or if it be opened it is by a total inversion of the life, which must occupy many years, ill. 9256. The mind of man can be opened in three degrees, according to his good, corresponding respec- tively to the three heavens, ill. 9594, 9701—9709; see below 10,099, 10,367. The opening of the internal takes place successively from boy- hood to adult age, 9755. So far as the internal man is open to heaven and the Lord, he is so far in the fire of heaven and the will of good ; and the contrary of this, 9798, 9801. The interiors can only be opened successively, and they are opened by divine truths, which are vessels recipient of the good of love from the Lord, 10,099 end; see below 10,367. When the interiors are opened man is elevated by the Lord into the light of heaven, hell is removed from him, the world is subject to him, and he then first knows what is good and evil, ill. 10,156. The internal is not opened by truths of doctrine merely, but remains closed unless man is in good, 10,367. When the internal is opened, man is really in heaven, because heaven is not in place, but in the human interiors, 10,367, 10,578; in further verification of this, that the inter- nal man never comes into hell, 10,483 cited below (6); and still further, how it comes to be closed, 10,492. It is the same thing whether we say the internal is opened and closed, or whether we say heaven^ 10,492 end. 5. The Exteriors opened. The exteriors are opened and the inter- nals closed when man is merely natural and sees all things in the light of the world, ill. 10,156; see also 9801 cited above (4). 6. That all the thoughts of man are openly manifested in the other lifet 4689, 8944. The discourse of the angels is clearly perceived OPE 839 I to be open to the Lord; so likewise all truths in which the Lord is, ill. 8868. 7. Openings of the Hells. A great opening into hell described, as seen by the author, 5715. The opening of the hells for the reception of the damned, ill. 8146. How rarely the profound and direful hells of profaners are opened, 10,287. The openings into hell represented by the gates of the camp, at which the Levites stood to slay the idolatrous Jews, 10,483. The hells are only opened according to necessity and want \indigentia\ and the openings to them are guarded by angels, 10,483. 8. Harmony of Passages. The cataracts of heaven opened (Gen. vii. 11), denotes the extreme of temptations as to things intellectual, 757. The promise of the serpent, that their eyes should be opened (Gen. iii. 4, 5), denotes self-intelligence, 204—206. The eyes of them both opened, and they knew that they were naked (ver. 7), denotes the interior dictate whereby they knew and acknowledged that they were no longer in innocence, 211 — 212. God said to open the eyes of Hagar (chap. xxi. 19), denotes the interior sight or understanding, which is opened by interior influx, 2701. Said to open the womb of Leah (chap. xxix. 31), denotes the conception and birth of doctrinals whereby the church comes to be, 3856. Said to open the womb of Rachel (chap. XXX. 22), denotes the faculty of receiving and acknowledging goods and truths, 3967. Joseph said to open all [the storehouses], when the famine prevailed in Egypt (chap. xlix. 56), denotes commu- nication from Remains, 5370. One of the brethren of Joseph opening his sack, which contained provender (chap. xlii. 27), denotes observa- tion previous to reflection upon scientifics, 5494, 5495. When we came to the inn, and opened our sacks, behold the silver of every one in the mouth of his sack (chap, xliii. 21), denotes introspection in the exterior natural, and then the free gift of truth, 5656, 5657. They opened every man his sack, and found the cup in Benjamin's (chap. xUv, 11, 12), denotes the manifestation of interior truth in the natural man, that it is from the celestial in the midst, 5768 — 5771. The ark opened, and the child Moses discovered in it (Exod. ii. 6), denotes investigation, followed by apperception of the divine law, 6735. All that openeth the womb to be sanctified (chap. xiii. 1,12; xxxiv. 19), denotes all that is of the regenerate life, and hence of charity, or all the good of innocence, 8043, 8074, 8075—10,660; the ass excepted (chap. xiii. 13; xxxiv. 20), 8078, 10,663.* 9. The re-opening of Ancient Truths^ denoted by Isaac returning and digging again the wells of water that had been dug in the days of Abra- ham, 3419. OPERATE, tOy in the sense of * to make,' or work a thing into fashion, is to regenerate, 8329. Signs wrought [operated] in Egypt, * Some passages in the authorised version, contain the verb or adjective "open,** when it does not appear in the original, thus, Gen. i. 20, "open firmament,** pro- perly, *• faces of the expanse;'* Gen. xxxviii. 14, 21, "open place" and "openly," properly, "gate of the fountains,** "at the fountains ;'* Ex. xxi. 33, "open a pit," properly, "dig a pit." These differences of expression, many of which are idiomatic, may sometimes, in many other instances as well as the present, occasion a little difficulty to the English reader in the application of correspondences, but really there is an advantage in them, as they enlarge and vary the terms by which the spiritual idea is expressed, and show the living usage as well as the mere anatomy of the original language. 840 ORA ORD 841 I denotes what is done spiritually to deliver those who arc infested, 7634. OPERATIONS. There are four common operations of heaven hy influx into the body; described from experience, 3884. The conjoint operation of the heart and lungs in the body described and compared with the marriage of good and truth, 3889. The operation of the societies of heaven is upon those parts of the body to which they corre- spond; so of infernal societies who are in the contrary principles, 5060. The operation of angels cannot be perceived by man while he is in the world unless his interiors are opened, and not then unless the Lord gives him sensitive reflection and perception at the same time, 5171. The plane into which the angels operate [not the four common opera- tions of heaven treated of in the above passages,] is formed by the implantation of the truths of faith, 5893. The angelic operation in the plane of truths is by an imperceptible influx, or if perceived, it appears like light flowing in, 5893. All operations of the mind arc variations of form, which variations are more perfect as the forms are purer, and agree with states of the affections, 6326. The influx and operation of the Lord is into all genuine worship, and every act of the mind pertaining to it, i7/. and the author's experience cited, 10,299; also, that there is divine worship in all that man does, when he is regenerated, 10,143. OPERATORS, used in the sense of labourers, meaning those of the spiritual church, 1069, 3820 compared. OPHIR, one of the sons of Joktan, denotes a ritual of the Hebrew church, 1245, 1247. See Eber. OPHIR, GOLD OF. See Gold. OPINION. Description of those who tenaciously adhere to the opinion they have once conceived of anything, 806, 5386. OPPOSITES. Many words and names have an opposite as well as a right sense, because goods and truths become changed into evils and falses, 1066, 3322, 5268; see also, 245. The internal and external of the Word appear like opposites, but the reason is, the external and internal man are opposites, ill. by examples, 3425, 5422. Those are said to be in opposites whose external and internal man are not in cor- respondence, 3425; their opposition ill, 3913, 4104, 4612. The false and evil represented as the opposites of faith and charity, in the pro- phetic description of Simeon and Levi, 6352. The opposition of those who are in falses against those who are in truths represented by the oppression of the Israelites by Pharaoh, 6907. OPPRESS, to [opprimere], is predicated of infestation by evils of life; to afflict, of infestation by the falses of faith; both in reference to those who desire to be instructed in the truths of the church, 9196, 9268. OPPRESSION, the, of the Israelites in Egypt denotes the infesta- tion of the spiritual by infernal spirits, or by those who are in falses, ill. 6639, ill. 6657, br. 6863. OPPROBRIUM, or reproach, applied to what is against the religion of another, in the case of Dinah, 4463. OPULENCE. See Riches. ORACLES [oracula : the author inserted this word in his own Index with a reference to the Treatise on the Sacred Scripture, n. 44, where the urim and thummim, or the signification of the breastplate, is briefly explained]. See Representatives. ORB, denotes the church in a universal sense, earth in a particular sense, sh, 6297, 10,248; more particularly as to the earth, 9325 and citations. ORDER, Arrangement [ordoy ordinatio], 1. That Bivine Truth is Order and Divine Good the essential of Order, 1728, 2258; see below 4839, 7995. Divine truth is order itself in the Lord's kingdom, and all the laws of order are truths; but divine good is the very essential of order, and its whole procedure is a series of mercies, 1728, 2258, 2447 cited below. The Lord is order itself, and from himself he governs all things in order, not only in the universal, but the most singular, 1919 ; see below 5703 — 5704. The Lord when he was in the world was in the perception of all things in heaven and earth, such being their order, connection, and influx, that he who is in the perception of one is in the perception of the other, 1919. Since the human of the Lord was made divine, he is one with Jehovah, and therefore above order in the heavens and the earths; yet, from himself he rules order, 1919. All order is from Jehovah, that is, from the Lord, who rules all and everything from good and truth, but with a difference, namely, from his will, from his good pleasure, from leave, and from permission; each br.ilL 2447. When man separates himself from good, he becomes subject to the laws of order, which are of truth separate from good, and these are such that they condemn all to hell, 2447. The essential of order is good, which elevates all to heaven; but the secondary of order is truth, which con- demns all to hell, 2258, 2447. Divine order is really the perpetual command of God; hence, laws of order, or of good and truth, are signified by the several commands given in the Word, ill. 2634, 3693 ; see below 7206. Divine order is the Lord himself in heaven, because good and truth from him are order itself; good the essential of order, truth the formal, 4839. Divine order when represented in form appears as a man, because the Lord who governs all order is alone man, 4839. Order itself is divine truth from divine good, and all are in that order who are in truth from good, but not who are in the truth or the false from evil, 5076. The Lord is order itself; hence, where he is present, all things are disposed into order; and consequently wherever there is order he is present, 5703. Universal order flowing in from the Lord, comprises in itself singulars, and most singulars, and by its action all things are reduced into order in the heavens ; and it is the same by common influx into the human body, 6338. Divine truths are the same thing as laws of order from the Lord's divine human, or what is called the Word, by which all things were made, 7206; passages cited 9987 end. Divine truths are laws of order in the internal form, as were the statutes which represented them in the external; the complex of which is divine truth from divine good, 7995. Divine truth arranges all order in heaven, hell, and earth ; and by its potency all the miracles of Moses were performed; in short, it is power itself, 8200. Everything is possible that is according to order, that is, to divine truth ; but every- thing against order is impossible, howsoever it may appear otherwise, 8700. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord makes order, and is order itself; consistent with which, divine order is meant by God, which 842 ORD ORD 843 is the expression used when truth is treated of in the Word, 8700 , 8988; but that divine truth having in it divine good is meant, 9336. 2. That Order is the same as the Divine Law, 7186. See above (1), 2634, 3693, 7206, 7995. That the laws of divine order are truths in heaven, 8999, 9290, 9987. That the statutes commanded to the sons of Israel were from the order of heaven flowing in; and that the expres- sion "a statute for ever" denotes the eternal law of order from which they proceed, 7884, 8070. See Law, Judgments, Statutes, Moses (1, 22). 3. The Order of In/lux and of all Existence, is from the Lord to the celestial, from the celestial to the spiritual, and from the spiritual to the natural; in this order all things are derived, and only in this order the Lord is present, 775, 880, 1096, 1495, 1702, 1707, 7270. There are three things which always follow in order of succession, ends, causes, and effects, in which latter the end of the love is imaged either in heavenly order or the contrary, 4104. All things in both worlds, spiritual and natural, exist in order from the first cause or fountain of life, and not only exist but perpetually subsist in such order from him, 4523—4524. Vegetable forms, and whatever things exist from light in the world, are disposed into order by the heat which proceeds from the fire of the sun and is in its light; this, because the sun represents the ^ord; its fire his divine love, and the heat proceeding from that fire, his inflowing good, 5704. Influx from the Lord is by the spiritual world into the natural, and is distinguished as common and particular ; common or general influx into all things that are in order, but particular into all things not in order, 5850; but that natural men are not willing to admit that all influx is from the spiritual world into the natural, because they are in inverse order, 5116. The influx of universal order from the Lord contains in itself the order of all things, to the most minute; unless this were so, heaven, hell, man, and all nature would be involved in confusion, 6338. When universal order acts, it appears that goods and truths, or the subjects receiving it, act of themselves, 6338. Order is so instituted that the first esse is in derived existences both mediately and immediately; thus equally in the ultimate of order as in the first, 7004. See Influx (I) 6063,* 6307, 6472, 6473, 7270, 8719, 9682, 9683, 5147, 5150; (11) all the passages. 4. That the influx of Order from the Lord ruling all things, is yet consistent with man* s freedom, ill, 6487. See Liberty, Man (15). 5. The true Order of life for man, is to love another as himself, but he is in the contrary of this order, 637 end, 2219 cited below. The true order of his life is the same as the order of heaven, celestial, spiritual, natural, 91 1, 5013. The order of his life requires the external to serve, and correspond to the internal, 91 1, 5127, 5305. According to order, the celestial flows into the spiritual and adapts it to itself; the spiritual into the rational; and the rational into scientifics, 1495. It is equally contrary to order for man to wait passively as if he were not able to do good, and to attribute the good he does to himself, 1712. According to the order in which man is created, he should be distin- guished from brute animals by love towards God and towards his neighbour, which also is the order of heaven, 2219, 4219. When genuine order obtains, good is elevated to the highest place in the affections, and truth is loved for the sake of good, 3563 end. The order of the regenerate man is the same as that of truths under good, which is the same as the order of heaven ; hence he is a heaven in its least form, 5704, 6013. The internal man is formed in the order of heaven, the external in that of the world, 6057. The order of heaven consists in a life of uses, and in doctrine or worship so far as derived from a life of use, 7884. 6. The Order of life destroyed or inverted ; that this is the case with all in whom the love of self and the world rules, who are therefore images of hell; and that the love of self in particular is diametrically opposed to the order into which man is created, 911, 2219. Goods and truths in the natural man are in inverse order compared with the rational ; hence, it is impossible and contrary to order to discern spi- ritual truths from the light of the natural man, 4612, 5008 end, 5116. The life of man is utterly contrary to heavenly order, for which reason he cannot be ruled by common influx, but by separate spirits and angels, 5850, 5993. The state of man is such that what ought to rule in him serves, and what ought to serve commands ; his salvation re- quires this order to be completely inverted, which is done by regenera- tion, 8553. See Evil (2). 7. The Order of life before and after Regeneration, is respectively inverse, for in the first state truth is primary, but in the second state good, i7/. 3563, 3679 end, 3726 and citations, 4250, 4612; and the passages cited in Man (26). He who is led of the Lord by good is led according to order, and is in the Lord, but he who is led by truth is not yet in order, 8510, 8512; but that divine truth is to be considered differently, see from a comparison of 8700; and the passages cited above (I); and what is to be done that such may enter into a state according to divine order, 8988. See Rectitude, but especially Regeneration. 8. The Order of life with the Spiritual and the Celestial, respec- tively, is inverse; the spiritual do not perceive that intelligence flows in from the Lord, but the celestial perceive this to be the case, 99. 9. The Order of Celestial Life, namely, that it begins from the Lord, from whom is wisdom, from wisdom intelligence, from intelligence reason, and by reason the scientifics of the memory are vivified, 121, 123—124. 10. Wisdom, Intelligence, and Science, described in Order, 10,331; the same represented by Bezaleel, 121, 9598, 10,326—10,335. 1 1 . Wisdom, Intelligence, and Order, as defined by a wise Gentile, 2592. See Understanding, Wisdom. 12. The Order of teaching and learning in the Word, begins from the most general form of truths, ill, 245. The order of influx and instruction is such that celestial and intellectual truths flow down into and adapt scientifics to themselves; this, notwithstanding the appear- ance to the contrary, 1495. See Idea, 3819, 3820; Education, Initiation, Implantation, Inapplication. 13. The Order of the Lord^s life when he was in the world, resem- bled that of other men; first, therefore, he imbued the affections of celestial love, 1450, 1451, 1458, 1460, 1548, 1556. See Lord (22, 23). The Lord was born as another man, and instructed as another man, but according to divine order, 1414, 1438, 1450, 1457, 1461, n 844 ORD ORD 845 1487, 1489, 1554, 1555, 1557, 1864, 1902, 2500, 2523, 6716. The Lord made his natural divine according to the same order in which he regenerates the natural mind of man, 3726, 3993, 9987 end, 10,052. See Lord (61). The divine had no need of the means used by the Lord, but he willed that all should be done according to order, 4065 ; further ilL 4075. See Lord (21). 14. The Order of Heaven is such, that the Lord by the celestial governs the spiritual, and by the spiritual the natural; thus, he governs the universal heaven as one man, 911, 3739; see below 4939. All the societies of heaven are ordered or arranged according to correspondence with the Lord's divine human, 3189; see below 7206. The arrange- ment of all the heavenly societies is according to the stupendous form impressed on heaven by the Lord; and the same form is impressed on the human brain, the circumvolutions of which correspond to the fluxion of heaven, 4040 — 4043, 6607. The whole heaven represents one man, because its order is from the Lord, who is alone man, 4839; and the passages cited below (23). The relation of superior and inferior principles is the same in man on earth as in the Grand Man of heaven, for the celestial is the first in order and flows into the spiritual, the spiritual is the second in order and flows into the natural, and the natural is third in order, 4939, 6013. Order in heaven rules all the socie- ties there according to the arrangement of truths under good from the Lord, 5704, 9877. It is the influx of universal order from the Lord (containing in itself all things of order even to the most minute,) that arranges the societies of heaven and all angels and spirits into order; so in universal nature, 6338, br. 6470. The laws of order by which heaven is arranged are from the Lord's divine human, and are divine truths, 7206; the reception of which is ill. 7270 \ see below 7931. Heaven is continually reduced into order by the Lord, and by the same procedure the evil are continually devastated, 7710. The inferior heavens are arranged into order by influx from the superior, and all the societies of heaven are disposed according to their respective good, and thence truth ; ilL by the arrangement of the Israelites in tribes, fami- lies, and houses, and by the arrangement of organs in the human form, 7836. See Heaven (7). In the order of the three heavens, three goods succeed each other, like end, cause, and effect ; namely, celestial good, spiritual good, and natural good ; and these three are so con- nected by the successive influx of one into the other, that they make one, 9812, 10,099. See Heaven (5, 6, 7). The order of heaven is to be understood as the order which commenced when the Lord began to arrange all things in heaven and earth from his divine human; hence the elevation of the spiritual into heaven, and the recession of the evil on all sides, 7931. The Lord, when he came into the world, subjugated the hells, and reduced all to order in hell and in heaven, in which order he now holds them to eternity because he has glorified his human, 10,659. See Lord (21). 15. The Order of the Lord's kingdom^ requires that the affection of good and truth be separated from every affection of the love of self, for otherwise profanation takes place, 1326 ; compare 3993. 16. The Order of good and evil, respectively. Goods are arranged in heavenly order in man, the best in the midst ; evil in the order of hell, the worst in the midst, 6028. There is order in hell as well as in heaven, but it is like the consociation of robbers, according to evils, 7773, 8226. See Hell (I), 693, 694, 3642, 6370, 6605, 6626, 7643, 7679, 7681, Evil (3), 9336. 17. The Order of goods and truths in Man, how they are arranged by the Lord so as to hold the centre, while evils and falses are arranged subordinately towards the peripheries, 3993. The arrangement of goods and truths in the natural man, when regenerated, is according to spiritual ends, which are of love and charity, of which they become the images and mirrors, 4104. The arrangement of goods and truths is in a celestial order like that of heaven, in other words it is the same as the arrangement of the angels in societies, 4236; see below 4302; and that this order obtains with the regenerate, but the reverse with the un- regenerate, 5339. Truths are arranged into celestial order, more and more perfect according to the reception of good and its quality, 4250. Heaven is called the Grand Man because of the order in which truths and goods are arranged, 4302. The order in which truths must be when they enter good in the heavenly form is imaged in the human body, ill. 4302. In man who is regenerating there are many falses mixed with truths, which are arranged into order when he is regenerated, and acts from good ; in this order truths occupy the inmost, and falses are re- jected to the last circumferences; but with the evil the contrary takes place, 4551, 4552; see also 3993. The object of thought is imme- diately under the intuition, and in order round about it are such things of the memory as are in aflinity with it, those in less affinity verging to the distance and to oblivion, 5278; the same order in reference to truths which agree with the loves, 5530, 5881; and with scientifics under the internal sight, or intellectual mind, 6068 ; see below 6338. The order of goods and truths in the natural or external mind, is produced by influx from the internal, 5288. All goods and truths with the regene- rate are carried down into scientifics in the natural mind, because scientifics are the ultimate of order, 5373. Scientifics in genuine order are arranged in the form of heaven ; but in inverse order, they are in the form of hell, 5700. Order consists in the right disposition of truths under good, in which good the Lord is present, 5703 — 5704. The order of scientifics and truths under good is more wonderful than man would ever believe, but it is apparent in the light of heaven and is known to angels, 588 1 . The order of spiritual good is in the interior of the natural mind, and in order round about it are goods and truths called natural, 6451. The order of all goods is from the Lord, who is in the inmost, by successive degrees to the outermost, 9683. The order in which all truths are arranged is from the one good, for truths are the form of good, 9863, 9864. See Good (21). 18. Order in the procedure of Ideas. Unless the thoughts of man were arranged universally and singularly under the affections of his love, it would be impossible for him to think rationally and analytically, or to act rationally, 6338; seriatim passages on thought and its ideas, 6598, 6626; and see Idea, 1008 and following passages. 19. Successive and Simultaneous Order explained. Man begins truly to live when divested of corporeals, and he owes his ability so to live, to the disposition of his interiors, distinctly, in successive order, 634; more fully ill. 3691, 5114; compare 9216 cited below. The distinct degrees are three, formed in successive order according to 846 ORD the three heavens, ill. 5114, 5145; see below 9866. The inmost or highest in successive order becomes the middle in simultaneous order, because the interiors flow down and subside together in the external, 5897, 6239, 6451, 6465. Successive and simultaneous order summa- rily explained ; especially that simultaneous order is from the existence of interior things all-together in ultimates, 645 1 . All things in nature exist from interior things, not by continuity, but distinctly, by exser- tions and compositions, formed in successive order, ill. 6803. Succes- sive order is the difference of degree between interior and exterior, as between life and the forms recipient of life, ill. 8603 ; or heaven, spirit, and body, 10,099. The prior or interior in order cannot exist without connection with the ultimate in order, illustrated by the skin, and the connection of heaven with the human race, 9215—9216 ; and by the belt as a common bond, 9828. Things in simultaneous order serve as the plane or fulcrum of things in successive order; and hence the pre- servation and state of the interiors depends on the exteriors or ultimate, of which, therefore, power is predicated, 9836. The supreme, or first, contains all the interiors together in order by means of the last, and subsists together with the interiors in the last, 10,044; see below 10,329. The interiors in successive order are three, which make one when they close together in simultaneous order; thus every three make one in ultimates, and every one comprehends three, 9866, 10,099. From the order here described it follows that the first and the last both sig- nify a//, 10,044, 10,329, 10,335.

The Ultimates or Extremes in which Divine Order is terminated, are the gestures, actions, looks, speech, and external sensations of man, 3632,3721, 5862, 5990, 6192, 6211.

The natural mind of man is the ultimate of order, and the gate by which all things of nature ascend to the divine, and through which the divine flows into nature, 3721 and citations. See Man (29), Natural (14). The ultimate of order is truth, because it is the re- cipient of good, 3726 and citations, 3739. 2 1 . Worship according to Heavenly Order, consists in the exercise of good according to the Lord's commands, not essentially in congre- gational worship, morning and evening, 7884. See External (3), Worship. 22. Maintenance of Order in the world. Order cannot be main- tained in the world without governors (Pra/ecti), having the power of reward and punishment, 10,790. Without governors, and laws to restrain the evil within bounds, the human race would perish, 10,791. There must be order also (secured by the subordination of the inferior to the superior) among governors, who must be skilled in the laws, wise, and godfearing men, 10,792. To secure such order there are governors in ecclesiastical afiairs, or priests, who are appointed to teach and lead men according to the doctrine of their church, and there are governors over civil affairs, such as kings and magistrates; the duties of each respectively, 10,789, 10,793—10,806. See Government. ORD 847 23. Summary of Passages concerning Order (some of the foregoing citations repeated, but differently arranged). The universal heaven, con- sisting of innumerable angelic societies, is disposed by the Lord according to his own divine order; this, because the divine proceeding of the Lord, received by the angels, makes heaven, 551, 1274—1277, 1376—1382, ;?i^.\^^l^' ^^^^' ^^^^' 7211, 8192, 9144, 9338, 10,125, 10,151, 10,157.

It IS in man that all things of divine order are collated, and hence, from creation, he is divine order in form, 4219, 4283, 4523, 4524, 4931, 6013, 6057, 6605, 6626, 9279. See Man (7), particu- larly 9706, 10,156, 10,472; Life (2), Correspondence. Every angel is a recipient of divine order from the Lord, and is in a human torm, perfect and beautiful according to reception, 322, 553, 1880, 1881, 3633, 3804, 4622, 4735, 4797, 4803, 4985, 5199, 5530, 6054, iu ' l^:^'^'^' 10,594. See Angel, Beauty, Life (14), Man (14). Ihe whole angelic heaven also, in its whole complex, is in form as a man, for which reason heaven is called the grand man; this, because the universal heaven as to all the angelic societies there, is arranged by the Lord, according to divine order, 2996—2998, 3624—3649, 3636—3644, 3741—3750, 4218—4228, 4625. See Heaven (7). It is the divine human of the Lord which gives birth to the order and form of heaven, and to the order corresponding thereto, and the forms within forms, of the human body, 2996, 2998, 3624—3649, 3741—3745. See Lord (27), Life (2). Man is not born into good and truth, thus nei- ther into divme order, but against it, and in contrary order; hence, he is born into mere ignorance, for which reason it is necessary that he be bornagam, or regenerated; this is effected by divine truths from the Lord, whereby he is initiated into order, and made really a man. 210, V^hoo^hll^^' ^^^^' 2577, 3701, 3812, 5660, 5786, 8480, 8550, 10 283, 10,284, 10,731. See Man (1, 7, 10, 22, 24, 25, 29); Evil (2), Kegeneration.

It is a law of order in the other life that evil and the false incur their own punishment, 10, 1 1. It is a law of order that no one is cast into hell by the Lord, but that the evil cast themselves in, and this to full consummation, 1857, 2258, 2447, 9320. The law of order by which the evil are separated from the good, and rush into punishment, is a law of mercy lest they should do hurt to the good and destroy the order of heaven, 2258. It is a law of order that no one can enter into heaven except by purification of the heart, and so far as man submits himself to this law the order of heaven is formed in him, 2634. It is a law of order in the Lord's kingdom, that when good spirits are affected by any love of self, they are remitted a little into their natural state, in which they imbue knowledge of good and truth concerning that particular fault, 3693. In the other life, so far as any are in evil or contrary to order, they appear as monsters, but so far as they are in good, or in order, they appear as men; this, because all good is according to divine order, and the Lord from whom all order flows is alone man, 4839. It is a law of order that inferior or exterior things be subject to superior, 5127, 5305. It is according to divine order that the evil who infest should be removed gradually, and the spi- ritual church be delivered gradually, 7186, further ill, 7710; applied immediately to regeneration, 9336. It is according to order in the other hfe that all should be consociated according to the life they have acquired to themselves in the world, 8/00. See Law, pp. 502—503. 26.

The steps and porches of the heavenly palaces described ; how life-hke they are, and how they ever exhibit some new beauty and symmetry, 1627. The angels have magnificent habitations, corresponding to their state, and adapted to their mode of sense ; how dead and comparatively worthless they con- sider our structures of wood and stone, 1628. Tlie habitations of good spirits and angelic spirits generally have a porch or arched court; how beautifully the walls are formed, sometimes decorated with flowers won- derfully entwined, 1629. As good spirits are perfected their habitations are changed into fairer ones; the signs by which they are forewarned of such changes, 1629. Those who were rich in the hfe of the body, but lived without charity or conscience, are at first surrounded with their accustomed splendour, and live in palaces; but soon the scene is changed, tlieir palaces are dissipated, and they dwell in houses, which become viler and viler, till they even ask alms and are rejected from society, 1631. Palaces, like houses, when mentioned in the Word, denote the voluntary part; windows, the intellectual; the text of Jer. ix. 21, ** Death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces," br. ex. 2348. Palaces and also castles denote the internals of the church, and they are both expressed by the same word in Hebrew ; courts, and villages or suburbs, in like manner denote the externals of the church, and are also both represented by one and the same word, 327 1 . Palace (Amos iv. 3) denotes the Word, and hence the truth of doctrine from good; to go out at the breaches (ibid. J denotes by falses from reasonings, 4926. Simile, concerning the divine providence, taken from the manner of erecting a palace ; the design of which is known to the architect, but not to the labourers, who prepare the mate- rials in quite a different order, 6486 — 6487. PALESTINA. See Philistines, especially 9340 (cited 1, 9). PALLAS, PALLADES. The author, in discourse with Aristotle, mentions the appearance of a woman, such, as he was told, often appeared to the wise ancients ; also, that such an one often appeared to Aristotle when he lived in the world, and, with a fair hand, stroked as it were his knee, 4658. PALLIUM. See Robe. PALMER- WORM [eriica'], occurs Joel i. 4, and Amos iv. 9. The devastation committed by this animal, signifies punishment arising from the non-reception of the good of faith and love, 9277; insects of this kind signifying falses and evils in the external sensual, 9331. See Caterpillar, Loclst, Worm. PALMS OF THE HANDS, the, expanded in supplication towards heaven, is a gesture which corresponds to the supplication of the heart, 7596. See Hand. PALM-TREES [palmce'], denote the goods of truth, or spiritual good; also, the affection of good ; holy festivity from good; delight. sh. 8369. Sec Moses ( 1 7). Branches of palms [spathdB palmarum, on which the dates hang] denote the good of faith, 7093, 8369; or, (understood perhaps without the fruit) the internal truths of good, 9296, and citations. The sculptures in Solomon's temple, cherubim, and palm-trees, and open flowers (1 Kings vi. 29), denote the state of heaven ; the cherubim, providence ; the palms, wisdom, which is of good from the Lord ; the flowers, intelligence, which is of truth from him, 8369. The cherubs and palms being covered with gold (ver. 30) denotes the universal prevalence of the good of love in heaven, 8369 end. PALPITATION OF THE HEART, denotes fear, 5501. PANCREAS. The spirits who correspond to it described; also those who correspond to the pancreatic, the hepatic, and the cystic ducts, 5184, 5185. PANNICLE [panniculus] in the Authorised Version bracelets (Gen. xxxviii. 17), denotes outmost or lowest truth, 4875. PANS [lebetes], to receive the ashes of the altar of burnt-offerings (Ex. xxvii. 3), denote the means by which the mere knowledges of good and truth are removed, when all that can conduce to the spiritual life has been extracted from them, 9723. PAPACY. See Religion. PAPS or breasts [uberdjy denote the affections of good and truth, ill. and sh. 6432. Blessings of the breasts and of the womb, predicated of Joseph (Gen. xHx. 25), denotes the affections of good and truth from interiors, and their conjunction, or the heavenly marriage in the spiritual church, 6432—6433. Gird ye upon the loins, beating themselves upon the breasts (Is. xxxii. 11, 12), denotes grief on account of lost good, and lost good of truth, 6432. The breasts fashioned, thy hair grown (Eze. xvi. 7), denotes the affections of good and truth inte- rior and exterior, 6432. Jerusalem and Samaria compared to two women, their breasts said to be pressed in whoredom (chap, xxiii. 2, 3, 8, 21), denotes the falsifications by which the affections of good and truth are perverted, 6432. Let her remove her whoredoms from her faces, and her adulteries from between her breasts (Hos. ii. 2), denotes the falsifications of truth and the adulterations of good and its affec- tions, 6432. Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts (chap. ix. 14), said of Ephraim, denotes no longer the affection of good and truth, but the lust of perverting, 9325. Blessed is the womb which bore thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked (Luke xi. 27), denotes those who hear the Word ; or abstractly, the affections of truth, and those who keep it, or, abstractly, the affections of good, 6432. The appearance of the Lord described as the Son of Man, girded around at the paps with a golden girdle (Rev. i. 13), denotes divine truth; and the good of love, 6432. Thou shalt suck the milk of the nations, yea, thou shalt suck the breasts of kings (Is. Ix. 16), denotes the reception of goods, and instruction in truths ; or, the insinuation of celestial good and truth, 2015, 6745, and citations. See Nurse. PARABLES [parabolcB]. The Lord, like the prophets, spoke by parables on account of the people at that time, who had no regard for internal truths, sh. 2520; and lest they should profane internal truths, 3898. The Lord's parables are not common similitudes, but all is divine in them; and hence celestial and spiritual, 4637. The parable in Eze. «,.:!! 856 PAR xvii. 2, and xxiv. 3, cited 3812, 3901; that concerning the fig-tree (Matt. xxiv. 32), 4231; and concerning the ten virgins, 4638. Various parables in the New Testament which show the state of the Jewish nation at that time, 4314. See Word. PARACLETE. Divine truth proceeding from the Lord's divine human, or from divine good, is called the paraclete or spirit of truth, br. 4673 ; sh. 6788; sh. 8724 ; sh. and passages cited concerning the Lord, 9199; sh, at length, together with the various senses in which the word " spirit " is used, 9818. See Holy (2). PARADISE. The most ancient people represented the state of man as to intelligence by a garden or paradise, 99, 100, 108, 225, 4447. They did not merely compare the state of man to a garden, &c., but they applied such names to him as the proper descriptive terms, 108, 2702. The celestial church is described by the garden of Eden ; its perceptions by all manner of trees ; its goods by fruits, 1069. Para- disiacal representations were shown to the most ancient people in their dreams, accompanied with a sense of their signification, 1122. Celes- tial paradises, exceeding in beauty all human imagination, are the actual products of influx from the Lord into the rational part of man ; hence, the rational mind, when celestial, is called the garden of Jehovah; when spiritual, the garden of God, 1588, 4014, 5376. Paradisiacal scenes in heaven are more real, even to every sense, than similar things in the world, and are of immense extent and variety; everything they contain, likewise, represents somewhat celestial and spiritual, and afll'cts the mind itself with felicity, 1622. Infants walk in paradisiacal places in the other life, the flowers of which blossom with fresh life as they pass by, 2296. When the angels discourse of intelligence and wisdom, their influx into the societies of spirits who correspond with them falls into the representation of paradises, vineyards, woods, and meadows adorned with flowers; hence the signification of such things in the Word, 3220, further ill. 441 1. The character and influx of the spirits described who correspond to the tunics of the eye; such spirits it is stated communicate with the paradisiacal heavens, 4412. The eye, or rather its sight, corresponds especially to those societies who are in the paradisiacal heavens, which paradises are in the first heavens, at the threshold of its interiors; the beauty of the scenes here presented to view described from experience, 4528, 4529. PARALLELISM. Between the Lord and man there is parallelism and correspondence as to things celestial, which are of good, 1831. 1862, 2935; not as to things spiritual, which are of truth, 1832, 3451, 3514. There is a parallelism, and hence communication, between inte- rior and exterior good, but not between interior good and exterior truth, unless the influx of good is according to genuine order, 3564. The intermediate between the Lord and man, when there is parallehsm, is formed by conscience, 1862. See Miracles (1). PARAN. Mount Seir and Mount Paran, denote celestial love per- taining to the Lord's human essence ; in the opposite sense, the hells which were overcome by his first victory, 1675, 1676. Mount Seir, denotes the Lord's human essence as to celestial love; Paran, as to spiritual love, 2714. God came from Teman, denotes the advent of the Lord as to celestial love; the Holy One from Mount Paran, as to spiritual love, 2714. See Seir, Edom, Esau. PAS 857 PARASITE. See Complaisant. PARCHED [exiistus]. Ears of corn parched with the east wmd (Gen. xli. 6), denote scientifics of no use because full of lusts, ill. 5215. Your cities parched (or burned) with fire (Isa. i. 7), denotes the truths of the church, or doctrinals, consumed by the evils of the oves of self and the world, 10,287. Parched places in the wilderness, salt earths not inhabited (Jer. xvii. 6), denote vastated goods and vastated truths, 245o. PARENTS. See Father, Mother. . , , PARNASSUS, and the virgins of the fountain, the horse Pegasus, the wooden horse of Troy, &c., were significatives derived from the ancient church, br. ex. 2762, 4966, 7729. ^ ... PART, used in the sense of lot, or portion, where the words ot the Lord are explained (Matt. xxiv. 42), 4424. Submission in part to the Lord, or a divided mind, not allowable, 6138. Man said to consist of three parts, which are described in order as corporeal, natural, and rational, 4038. The whole man from inmost to outmost described m two parts, the one voluntary, the other intellectual, each of which per- vades every other distinction of his nature, 5072, 5077, 5094, 5110, 5114, 5140, 5144, 5146, 5148, 5163, 5167; 7503. See Man (17). Mind (1), Miracles (1). PART, OR DIVIDE, to. See Division. PARTICULARS. See Common, Memory. PARTITION OF THE ISRAELITES. See Tribes. PARTRIDGE [perdix]. To get eggs as a partridge, and not hatch them (Jer. xvii. 11), denotes the acquisition of knowledges, with- out use as the end, 10,227. PASCHAL LAMB. See Moses (13), Passover. ^ . .' PASS, to [transire]. This word, like come, go, walk, and similar words, is subject to numerous changes of meaning ; where it is said the angels shall pass on, after their entertainment by Abraham, it denotes the end of that state of perception, 2167—2168. Where it is stated that Jacob should pass through all the flock, it denotes knowledge and perception in respect to good, 3992. In the covenant between Jacob and Laban, it denotes influx limited according to good on the one side, and truth on the other, 4205. Where it is said that God made a wind to pass upon the earth, it denotes the arrangement of all things in their order, consequent of course, on influx from him, 842. Most frequently this word occurs in reference to the passage of the Red Sea, and hence it denotes to be saved, 8321, 8323. The spiritual are saved by their nassa»e through the midst of hell, without hazard of infestation, which was represented by the passage of the Red Sea, 7849, 7889, 7939, 8039, 8099, 8125, 8159, 8182-8184, 8200-8206, 8234-8236, 8345* In the place where Moses is commanded to pass on before the people in company with the elders of Israel, it denotes to lead and teach from the primary truths of intelligence, 8577. In other places where it refers to the crossing of Jordan, to pass denotes initiation into knowledges of good and truth, 4255, 6538. When Jacob orders his servants, and flocks, and wives, to pass on before him over the Jordan, it denotes the insinuation of truth into good (signified by the coming of Esau) in the order there treated of, 4266, especially 4271. When Jacob is afterwards said to pass on before them all, to humble himself before Esau, it denotes the ultimate insinuation of all truth into good. 858 PAS 4345 end, 4346. "Where Esau is requested by Jacob to pass on before him, it denotes the more remote action, or the less immediate presence, of good, 4380. Where Joseph is said to pass through Egypt, it denotes the action of the internal upon the external, subordinating all things and reducing them to submission, 5338. Where Jehovah is said to pass through Egypt, to smite the firstborn, &c., it denotes the presence of the divine, which causes the damnation of the evil, 7869, ilL 7926. See Moses (13), 7955, 7964—7965. Where it occurs in the Mosaic ritual, the animals being made to pass before Jehovah, &c., it denotes the affections which are to be attributed to the Lord, and to be sacred to him, 8074, 8078, 8088. Where the Levites are ordered to slay the idolatrous people (pass and return from gate to gate), it denotes a general survey and introspection wherever there is any opening from the internal into the external, 10,489. See Moses (24;. Where Jehovah makes all his good and his glory pass by Moses, &c., it denotes the divine upon the external separate from the internal, 10,575, 10,581, 10,616. See Moses (25). To pass in peace [sa/ely^y and, The way he had not gone with his ieet (Isa. xli. 3), has reference respectively to the will and the understanding, 683. How ideas of corporeal and worldly things pass by correspondence into ideas of celestial and spiritual things. 1430, 2015, 2333, 5648. ^ PASSAGE OR OPENING [iransitus], has reference, generally, to influx; description of those in whom the passage for the influx of light from heaven is closed, 6971. See Communication, Gate, Open. PASS AWAY, to [transire], used in the sense of dying, 5726. PASSED OR EXPIRED, in reference to time, denotes the conclu- sion of a state treated of, 6510. PASS THE NIGHT, to [pernoctare]. To pass the night in the street, said of the angels who visited Lot (Gen. xix. 2), denotes to judge from truth, 2328, 2335. To pass the night in the house (ver. 3), de- notes in the good of charity, 2333. To pass the night, denotes to remain or to abide according to the subject; where the servant of Isaac is pro- mised a place to pass the night in (Gen. xxiv. 25), it denotes the state of the affection of truth, specifically the obscure state in which it begins, 3115. To pass the night, considered as a term that implies rest, de- notes internal peace when nothing evil or false disturbs the affections of good and truth, 3170; 4213 cited below. To pass the night in the forest, said of Arabia (Isa. xx. 13), denotes to be desolated as to good, or to be no longer in the goods of faith, c240. Jacob said to pass the night in a certain place (Bethel), because the sun had set (Gen. xxviii. 11), denotes to live in a state of obscurity as to good and truth, 3693. Jacob and Laban said to pass the night in the mount (Gen. xxxi. 54), denotes tranquility from the good of love; remark on an ancient cus- tom, 4213. Jacob said to pass the night at Mahanaim (Gen. xxxii. 13), before he met Esau, denotes the obscure state of the natural man as to truth before conjunction with good, 4261. To pass the night, denotes a state in the proprium; hence, the fat of the sacrifice and the passover not to be left through the night (Ex. xxiii. 18; xxxiv. 25), denotes that the good of worship is never from the proprium, but always new from the Lord, 9299, 10,679. PASSION OF THE CROSS, the, was the last of the Lord's tempta- tions, by which he fully subjugated the hells and restored the heavens to PAS 859 order, and at the same time glorified his human, 10,026, i7Z. 10,152. All that was merely human died in the passion of the cross, 2818; pas- sages cited 4287. The Lord suffered temptations, and the passion of the cross, which represented the last and direst of all temptations, not as divine truth or the Son of God, but as truth divine or the Son of Man, ill. and «A. 2813. See Lord (47, 48). PASSIONS, the, of the soul are the causes of disease, and corre- spond to diseases, 5712, 5726, 8364. See Disease. PASSIVE AND ACTIVE, that they form as it were a marriage through all the organization, even to the most minute parts, and that this is from the heavenly marriage, 718, 5194. PASSOVER [Pascha], Explanation of the passover anticipated, in a general summary concerning the diet of unleavened bread and the paschal lamb, 2342. The passover represented the glorification of the Lord, and his conjunction with the human race, which is by love and charity, 2342. The chief representative signs in the passover were these — that it was ate in the night ; that the flesh was roasted with fire; that the unleavened bread was ate with bitters [asyma super ama- rihu8\ ; that it was to be roasted whole [caput super crura— the head upon the legs] ; that it was neither to be raw nor boiled ; that no por- tion of it was to be left till morning ; and that the part not eaten [resi- duum — the bones, &c.] was to be consumed with fire, 2342 ; see also 8020. Unleavened bread (which was commanded to be ate all the days of the passover), denotes pure love, purified from all that is false, 2342, 7853, 7886, 7887, 7902, 9286, 9287, 9289, 9292, 9992. The pass- over, in the supreme sense, denotes the glorification of the Lord, and the paschal lamb is the Lord himself; in the representative sense it signifies the regeneration of man, and the paschal lamb is the essential of regeneration, which is innocence dwelling in charity, 3994 ; the latter, 7831 — 7832, 7836. The chapter concerning the passover (Ex. xii.), treats of the deliverance of the spiritual from falses, that is, from damnation, and at the same time of the damnation of the unfaithful, when the Lord was glorified, 7093 end, 7822, 7823, 8038, 9197, 9286 — 9292, 9992. It is called the passover of Jehovah because it repre- sented the presence of the Lord and the deliverance of those who are of the spiritual church by the divine human of the Lord when he rose again, 7867 and citations, 8017, 9197, 10,134 near the end. The manner of eating the passover (so many together, and sometimes more than one family), represented the initiation of the spiritual into a full state of truth and good, and also, consociations as they are in heaven, 7836, 7849, 7997; hence, to eat the passover is to be one with those angelic consociations, or to consociate, 8001 ; not to eat it, the contrary, 7996. The statutes of the passover are laws of order for those who are delivered from damnation, and from infestations by falses, 7995, 8020, 9290. The feast of the passover (including the feast of unleavened bread), was instituted in remembrance of the glorification of the Lord's human, and of deliverance from evil and from the falses of evil ; it also involves thanksgiving for such deliverance, 10,655. See Feasts [festal, Moses (13). PASTOR. See Sheep. PASTURE [pascuuni], denotes that which supports spiritual life ; thus, scientifics in which are the goods of truth, ill. and sh. 6078, 860 PEA 6277. By another mode of expressing the same thing, pasture denotes truth and the good of truth (Lam. i. 6); cited 6413. To feed is to instruct; hence, pastors or shepherds denote instructors; and pasture, instruction ; passages cited, and a remark on the appearance of gar- dens, pastures, flocks, &c., in the spiritual world, 5201. Pastures trodden down, and water defiled (Ezek. i. 18, 19), denotes the good and truth of the Word destroyed by those who are in faith only, 4/83 end. A joy of wild asses and a pasture of flocks (Isa. xxxii. 14), denotes Tastation, predicated of truths and goods respectively, 1949. See Sheep. PATH. See Way. PATHRUSIM. See Egypt. PATRIOTISM. See Lo ve ( 1 8). PAU, the name of a city (Gen. xxxvi. 39), denotes doctrine, 4G50. PAWN [arrhabo]. See Pledge. PEACE [pax]. 1. The State of Peace, such as enjoyed by Me Celestial Man, exceeds all idea of delight, and the external tranquility flowing from it, is described by all that is sweet and healthful in natiite, 92, 93. Peace comprehends in one complex all and everything of the Lord's kingdom; and in the state of peace exist all the happy states flowing from love and faith in the Lord, 925; see below, 5662. By peace is meant the Lord's kingdom, and his kingdom consists in mutual love, in which alone is peace, 1038, 1/26. Peace in the Lord's king- dom is as day-dawn or spring in the world, and affects all there with ineffable and interior happiness, 1726, 2780, 3780, 5662, 8455, 8665. cited below. Innocence in heaven exists in peace, and this peace is such that it affects all things of faith and love with a common blessed- ness, 2780; see below, 5052, 5662. In the supreme sense, peace is the Lord; in the representative or internal sense, it is his kingdom; thus, it is the divine peace inmostly affecting the good in which all in heaven are principled, sh, 3780, 8722. Peace and tranquility are from the good of love and charity, 4213. By peace the ancients^ understood the Lord, also his kingdom and life therein, or salvation; externally, it expressed safety and health in the world, 4681, br, 4712, 4713, 5662. The sweetest peace is in the inmost heaven, for the angels there are the most wise of all, and from innocence appear to others like infants; this, because they are in conjugial love beyond others, 5052; their state of peace represented in a dream, 5051; see below, 8665. They are in peace who accept a celestial proprium from the Lord, for they confide in him, and know that no evil can happen to them ; besides which they are led in freedom from good to good, 5660, ill. 8455. Peace is the inmost of all fehcity and blessedness ; therefore it is the universal of all, which affects every perception of delight insensibly, 5662. Peace can only flow-in when the lusts of self and the world are removed, for these destroy peace, infest the interiors of man, and make rest consist in unrest, 5662. Peace, meant in the Word, immensely transcends every idea of peace on earth, 5662. None but those who are in faith from charity can have peace, for otherwise they continually cast them- selves into anxieties and lusts, 6325. Man is so far in peace as he is in love to the Lord, and this state of peace withdraws him from all evil, especially self-confidence, 8455. When man is in a state of peace the Lord leads him to good, and if he would then lead himself, even by PEA 861 truth, the state of peace is dissipated, 8517. The conjunction of good and truth is effected in a state of peace, 8517, 9278. Man is in peace when in good, because evil spirits fly from him on the first appercep- tion of good; but he is not in peace when in truth, because truth is exposed to their assaults, 8722. Peace is the divine in good, and it makes the felicity of those who are in good, 8722. When peace is predicated of the divine in heaven, the state of the inmost heaven is meant, which is called divine celestial, 8665. Man is in peace when in good because he is then led by the Lord according to the laws of order in heaven, 8993. The first state of the regenerate is to be led by truths to good, and the second to be led by good ; in this state iioan is led by the Lord, and he is then in heaven and in the tranquility of peace, which is denoted by the seventh day, 8506, 9274, 9278, 9431, and citations, 10,668, and citations. 2. Peace represented by the Sabbath. By the seventh day or the Sabbath, is meant peace in the heavens and earths, because it denotes the union of the human and divine in the Lord after his combats with the hells; also the conjunction of good and truth in man after tempta- tions; and the conjunction of man with the Lord, 10,360, 10,367, 10,374, 10,730. The celestial man is especially meant by the Sabbath, because he is no longer tempted, but in good, and therefore in peace and rest, 85—88, 8491, 8494, 8495, 8506, 8510, 8517, 8889, 8890, 8893, 9274, 9296, 9741 end, 10,353, 10,360, 10,367, 10,370, 10,374, 10,668. See Sabbath. 3. That Peace in the Supreme Sense is the Lord Himself, who is called the Prince of Peace, and Shiloh, which means Peace, sh. 3780, 4681, 4712, 4713, 5662, 6373, 8722. See Sabbath (10). 4. The Truth of Peace and of Faith. The truth of peace is like the light of morning, for it is truth divine in heaven, which makes heaven and affects all there with internal felicity, ill. 8455. The truth of faith derives Its life from the^ruth of peace, ill. 84^. 5. Tranquility ; TranquiUty of Peace. Tranquility and delight are predicated^? the external; felicity and peace of the internal, 85 end. Tranquility is predicated when the spiritual man begins to be made qc]estial, and is called the tranquility of peace, 91 — 93. The tranquility of peace is not the mere cessation of combats, but it is a life flowmg from interior peace, 92. The Author mentions a state of tranquillity, almost like a state of peace in one society that he visited, 1275. Man cannot come into the tranquility of peace, or be a whole man, before the rational and natural are conjoined, because the one fights with the other, 2183, 8893. Tranquility is a state of external peace, produced from internal peace when cupidities and falses are removed, 3696. All who become regenerate are in this state of tran- quility at the beginning of regeneration, and they return into it again at the end when temptation combats have ceased, 3696. Those enjoy tranquility and peace who are conjoined as to good and truth, 4213. They are in the tranquility of peace who are principled in interior truths, that is, who have imbued them in faith and life ; such also are in the Lord's kingdom, and they regard the restlessness of exteriors as one who looks from an eminence upon a raging sea, 4393, 4394. They are in the tranquility of peace who are in the perception of the Lord's presence, and their tranquility varies as that perception 862 PEA il ll II varies, 5963, differently expressed, G325 cited. Description of the tranquility and delight of heart which the spirits of Jupiter inspired, 8113. 6. That States of Peace are given to those who sustain the Combats of Temptation, and that such states are signified by Shalem, and by bread and wine brought forth by Melchizedek, 1726. A similar state represented by Jacob*s arrival at Shalem, 4393. 7. Resty Restlessness. Rest is an external expression, meaning in the internal sense to have peace, 3170. All unrest is from evil and the false; all peace from what is good and true, 6r. 3170, 3696, b(}(d2. Rest or peace denotes the Lord, and good from the Lord ; thus, good works done without a view to reward, 6391. Rest, and the seventh day, named together, denote peace, and the good of love which brings peace, 8893. See Sabbath, especially (6). 8. That rest is attributed to the Lord, when man is in good, after the six days' labor of regeneration, because it is not man that fights but the Lord for him, 63, 84, 87, 88, 8506, 8510. An odor of rest to Jehovah, is a common form of expression in the Word, especially in reference to the burnt-oflTerings and sacrifices, and it denotes the grate- ful perception of peace, 925. The rest of Jehovah is peace and safety, enjoyed by angels in heaven and by men on earth, in consequence of his victories over the hells, 10,374, 10,730; the former cited below (1 1). 9. The rest of Interiors in Exteriors, br. ill. 10,567. 10. Rest and peace variously represented in the Word ; by the Sabbath, see above (2); by a covenant of peace, because it denotes the presence of the Lord in love and charity, 1038 ; by passing the night, 3170, 4213; by laying in a place to sleep, 3696; by rising in the morning, 2780; by the morning, the dew and manna on the ground, 8455, and following passages; by avoiding strife, in Joseph's advice to his brethren, 5963. 11. Rest and peace named in the Word. God said to rest in the account of the creation (Gen. ii. 2, and elsewhere) denotes the cessa- tion of temptation combats in the regeneration of man, 83 — 87, 10,373, — 10,374. The dove said to find no rest for the sole of her foot (Gen. viii. 9) denotes that nothing of the good and truth of faith could yet fix itself, 875. Jacob's enquiry, whether it was peace to Laban (whether he were well, ch. xxix. 6), denotes whether the good which Laban repre- sented was of the Lord, 3780, 3781 . He rested and was refreshed (or breathed, respiravit) said of Jehovah (ch. xxxi. 1 7), denotes the state of good when the church is estabHshed, or when man is regenerated, 10,374. Those men are peaceful with us, said by Hamor and Shechem, of the sons of Jacob (chap, xxxiv. 21), denotes agreement as to doctrine, 4479. They hated him and could not speak peaceably to him (meaning Joseph, chap, xxxvii. 4), denotes aversion from divine truth, 4681. Joseph sent to enquire whether it were well (peace) with his brethren, and well (peace) with the flocks (ver. 14), denotes the advent of the Lord, or truth from the Lord, giving perception, 4712 — 4713. Joseph's brethren greeted with peace by the steward of his house, when they were alarmed on account of the silver returned to them (chap, xliii. 23), denotes the perception that all is well, after the state of despair occasioned by the change of state when truth is no longer ascribed to self, but to the Lord, 5662. The enquiry of Joseph concerning the PEO' 863 peace (or health) of his father (ver. 27, 28), denotes perception concern- ing good, and spiritual life therewith in the natural man, 5677—5680. He saw the rest that it was good, said of Issachar described as a bony ass, &c. (chap. xlix. 14), denotes the peace which attends good works when done without a view to recompense, 6391. The locusts said to rest (or lodge themselves) in all the borders of Egypt (Ex. x. 14), denotes the false principle pervading the natural mind to its very ulti- mates, 7684. Everyone commanded to rest, &c. (abide in his place, chap. xvi. 29), denotes the state of peace as represented by the Sabbath, 8517. Moses and Jethro asking each other of their peace (welfare, chap, xviii. 7), denotes consociation in the celestial state, 8665. All this people shall come upon their place in peace, said of the IsraeHtes (ver. 23), denotes the state of the spiritual when in good, 8722. No peace to any flesh (Gen. xii. 12), denotes no good by which the vas- tated church is afilected, 394 1 . 1 2. Peace enjoyed by the Evil, is the delight of their cupidities, which eventually turns to unhappiness, 8455. The evil can never know truly what peace is, because their only rest is in the opposite of peace, 5662. PEARL [margarita']. The precious or beautiful pearl denotes charity or the good of faith, 2967. [Pearls signify knowledge of good and truth both celestial and spiritual. A, R., 727, 899 ; especially the knowledge and acknowledgment of the Lord, ib. 916. As there are pearls of a yellow and red tint, as well as silver-grey, and white, it is probable that ;)emwiiw, translated rubies, Job xxviii. 18; Prov. iii. 15; viii. 11; XX. 15; xxxi. iv. ; and Lam. iv. 7, may mean pearls of a beau- tiful red tinge]. See Precious Stones (Ruby), PECULIAR Treasure [peculium, Ex. xix. 5 ; Ps. cxxxv. 4 ; and peculiar people, Deut. vii. 6; xiv. 2; xxvi. 8], denotes those who have the Word, or who form the church because such are especially the possession of the Lord, 8768. PEG [paxillus']. See Nail. PEGASUS. See Parnassus. PELEG, in the first genealogy of the Shemitic families, signifies the internal of the Hebrew Church, Joktan, its external, 1137; 1240, 1242. In the second genealogy, Peleg denotes the Hebrew Church, when entering upon a period wholly external 1345. See Eber. PELLUCID. The natural mind becomes pellucid when light from heaven is admitted into it, that is, when it corresponds to the rational, ill. 3493. The literal sense of the Word is pellucid from the spiritual sense, ill, 9407. See Illumination, Illustration, Light, Pre- cious Stones. PENIEL, meaning in the original ** the faces of God," denotes a state of the heaviest temptations, 4298, ill. 4299. In the internal his- torical sense, it denotes that representations were commenced ; for " I have seen God faces to faces," denotes that the Lord was repre- sentatively present, 4310. See Jacob (8, 10). PENUEL, denotes a state of truth in good ; Jabbok, mentioned immediately before, denotes the first insinuation of truth, ill. 4301.

Peoples distinguished from Nations, de- VOL. II. a 864 *PEO PEO 865 note truths; in the opposite sense, falses, #A. 1259, 1260, 2349, 3272, 4250. Families predicated of peoples denote truths; but predicated of nations they denote goods, hr, «A. 1 26 1 . A people denotes the truth of faith, or those who are in the truth of faith, 1316, 7108. Peoples denote truths, &c., in a more general expression, whatever is spiritual, as distinguished from celestial, 2069. A people denotes those who belong to the spiritual church, because such are they whose conscience is formed by the truths of faith, 2928, 2950, 7108, 7277, 7439, 7551 and citations; see below, 7789. Peoples denote truth, and also the good of truth, because such good in its first existence, or in itself, really is truth, 3294 — 3295. Truths denoted by people are spiritual truths, called also truths of the church ; but truths of good, denoted likewise by people, are the goods of charity, properly called truths, 3581. In the Hebrew tongue, the word translated people is not the same when the truths of good are signified, as when it denotes truths ; but the two words are in affinity, 3581. People (in this case called men likewise), denote the truths of good, understood as truths pro- ceeding from internal good when it enters the external man, 4385 ; compare with this and with the citations immediately preceding, 4557. People denotes doctrine, because the truth of the church, 4468. When predicated of the natural mind, people denotes the knowledges of good and truth, and scientifics, because these are truths to the natural man, 5312, 6146, 6152 ; see below 6653. In the same sense it denotes the external truths of the church corresponding to internal, 5409, 5418. Peoples in large numbers or multitudes, denotes the indefinite increase of truths, 6232. When all the tribes of Israel are meant by people, it denotes all the goods and truths of the natural man, considered in their order under spiritual good, 6451, 6465. In the right sense, a people denotes truths, or scientifics ruled by truth; in the opposite sense, falses, and also scientifics separated from truth, 6653 ; the latter, 6692; as to falses, 8311. To become the Lord's people, is predicated of the spiritual when elevated into heaven, which was done by the Lord's vic- tories over the hells, 7207, 7277; passages cited 9229 end. People denotes all who are in the truth of good, and in the good of truth, also in truth from the divine ; comprehensively, all of the spiritual church, 7789, 8321, 8805, 10,288. The people at Mount Sinai, denote the spiritual church as to good in which the truths of faith are about to be implanted, 8805, 8816. When a people is called poor, it denotes those who are in need of truth, thus of instruction, 9209. When they who belong to the church are called a people, the spiritual church is meant; when called a nation, the celestial church, 10,288. See Nations (12). 2. Kings and Peoples understood together. By a people in the Word, is meant those who are under a king, and a king denotes truth; people, those who are in truths, 6653; compare 7396. The Jews were at first a nation, but after they had kings they are called a people, 1259 end. 3. The Lord's People, are so called, who have been elevated to heaven, after death ; likewise, all who are in heaven as to their souls, though they are yet in the body, 7207 ; cited above (1). The Israelites were called the people of Jehovah, because they represented those who belong to the Lord's spiritual kingdom, not because they were better than other nations, 7439, 9229 and citations, 10,393, 10,394, 10,396 and citations. That Moses and the people together represented the Lord's spiritual kingdom, 8261, 8645, 8760, 8805 cited in .Moses (4). 4. To be gathered to his Fathers, to he collected to his People, was a proverbial mode of expression among the ancients, because they understood that man really went to his own after death, 3255, 4619 cited below. In the representative sense, it denotes that the person meant ceases to represent ; at those places in the Word, therefore, the re- presentation changes to another, 3255, 3276. As man is in society with spints and angels, even while he lives in the body, to be collected to his people, IS to come among his own associate spirits after death, 4619 In the mternal sense, to be collected to his people, is to be understood as reternng to the truths and goods in which the people or the society is pnncipled; thus, peoples are either the truths in which societies are agreed, or the societies which are in those truths, 4619. To be col- lected to his people, where the death of Israel is treated of, denotes the existence of spmtual good henceforth in the midst of the goods and truths of the natural man, 6451, 6464, 6465. 5.

The people of the fand, thi sons of Ueth (chap, xxiii. 7), denotes those with whom a new spiritual church could be raised up, those who are in truths, 2928.

The people not to have straw [palea], to make bricks (ver. 7), denotes that the lowest scientifics shall not, under the circumstances predicated, be any longer applied to the falses which are fabricated and injected by evil spirits, 7112, 7113. The people dispersing themselves through all the land of Egypt to find straw (ver. 12), denotes inquisition into the natural mind to find some scientific truth, 7130 — 7131.

PERSECUTIONS (Mark x. 30, and other passages), denote temp- tations, ill. 4843, 9048; passages cited concerning afflictions, 1844 1846. See Afflictions. PERSEVERE, to, or endure to the end, is not to be seduced, or succumb in temptations; hence, it denotes the salvation of those who are in charity, 3488. PERSON. The idea of person, whenever it occurs in the external sense of the Word, is changed into the idea of thing in the internal sense; thus, into something of truth and good, 5225, 5287, 5434; see also 5253, 10,133 cited below. The angels always think abstractly from persons, and remain in the idea of the substantial things; this, because r2 882 PHA PHA 883 the idea is fixed and limited when determined to person; also because the idea of person in the other life excites those who are thought of, and even disturbs the societies in which they are, 8343; then in order 6040 end, 8985, 9007. The names of persons and places mentioned in the Word do not enter heaven, but the things signified by them ; passages cited 10,282. Such persons as Shem, Ham, Japhet, and others named in that portion of the Word, never really existed, but the history is significative, 1140, 1238. Persons named in the Word signify divine things in the sense which treats of the Lord, and things relative in man according to the subject treated of, 3979. Several per- sons named in connexion in the Word, denote various things m one person, 5095. Three things must be rejected in order to elicit the internal sense from the letter of the Word, namely, the idea of time, the idea of space, and the idea of person, 5253, 10,133. See Lan- guage (6), Abstraction, Word. PERSUASION. See Principle. PERTUJLBATION of MIND, that it is caused by spirits, whose character is br, described, 5716. See Crowd, Phantasy. PERVERT, tOy in the spiritual sense is to turn truth into the false, and good into evil. 9252. With those who are in natural light not spiritual, truths and the affections of truth cannot be elevated, but are either suffocated, or rejected or perverted, ill. 4104 ; after which read 4214, 9265—9267. • , ^ . , , .. PETER [Petrus]. Peter, James and John, denote faith, charity and the good of charity; preface before 2135, and before 2760; com- pare 3869 cited in Tribes. The keys given to Peter, denote the faith of charity, which is from the Lord alone, and by which heaven is opened to those who love the Lord and the neighbour, preface before 2760; 3750, 3769, 4738 end. Peter denying the Lord three times in the night when he was taken, denotes the state of the church in the last time when faith is taught, but the Lord rejected from the heart, 6000 ; or, when faith without charity rejects the Lord, 6073 end; passages cited ]iiP,134. The words of the Lord to Peter, When thou wast a boy thou girdedst thy loins and walkedst whither thou wouldst, but when thou shalt be old thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thy loins and lead thee whither thou wouldest not (John xxi. 18), denotes the faith of the church in its beginning and in its end, ill. and passages cited 9212; the same passage further explained, including the command addressed to Peter, Feed my sheep, and the reference to John who lay upon the Lord's breast, 10,087.

Phantasies are ascribed to the un- derstanding when not occupied with truths; cupidities, to the will when not occupied with goods, 568. Phantasy takes the place of perception, and appears like it, when all good and truth are vastated, 7680. The antediluvians were in the perception of good and truth, which was lost when they immersed the doctrinals of faith in their lusts ; in place of perception also, there then succeeded a dire persuasion, or a most obstinate and deadly phantasy, sh. 585; its character further ill, 806; and the experience of the author, 1270, 1512. Phantasies are from crowds of evil spirits, whose influx is like an inundation ; such phanta- sies also are dissipated by companies of good spirits, whose influx is denoted by the east wind, ill, and sh, 842. Phantasies which are in- dulged in the life of the body, are turned into others corresponding to them in the other life ; some examples given, 954, 1110, 1270, 1510 — 1512. A spirit described sitting at a mill and grinding, small look- ing-glasses by him ; such are they who suppose all things to be phan- tasies, not real, 1510, 4335. Spirits, by phantasy, induce visions of things which appear as if they were real; especially in shade, or moon- light, 1967; read also 2385, 3224, 6400. The infernals are continually surrounded by phantasies, and they cruelly torment each other by means of them, 1969. Phantasies are believed to be truths by those in whom the interior mind is not opened to heaven, their phantasies also, are mixed up with filthy and obscene objects, 3224. Evil spirits are hardly anything but phantasies and cupidities, 1969. The sensitive percep- tion of spirits is of two distinct kinds, real in heaven, and not real in hell, where all is of phantasy because opposed to the divine, ill. 4623. Evil spirits, from the phantasy in which they are; appear like men, but in the light of heaven like monsters ; this, because evil is against order, thus against the human form, 4839 end. Evil spirits by phantasy form magical rods, and seem to exercise miraculous power; a shoulder is also sometimes represented by them from phantasy, as a sign of power, 4936, 4937. The arts by which truths are made to appear as falses, and falses as truths, correspond to the phantasies of evil spirits, which are a kind of sorcery, 7297. By the phantasy of evil spirits foul things are made to appear fair, and fair foul, 7297. The almost heavenly beauty of the spirits called sirens, and the fair scenes around them are all the effects of phantasy, and they are in- stantly dissipated by light from heaven, which discovers their filthy interiors, 10,286. Illustrated by these phenomena, what it is to imitate divine things by study and art, 10,284, 10,286. That phantasies con- cerning spiritual things are from sensuals, and that such phantasies are described in Isaiah (xxii. 1 — 5) by the valley of vision, 4715; read also 5125, 6400. As to the persuasions from which phantasies arise, see Principle. 2. Spheres of Phantasies, in the other life, appear like clouds; a misty or cloudy rock described, where the antediluvians are, 1512; read also 1510. As to those who are imposed on by the phantasies induced by evil spirits, 1967, 1969, 10,286, cited above. See Magic. 3. The Phantasies and the Cupidities of the Jews, briefly described; also from experience in the other life, 4293. PHARAOH. 1. Signification, In a good sense, Pharaoh and Egypt both alike denote science, 1482, 4789; see below, 6015, &c. In the sense which treats of the Lord, Pharaoh denotes the science of knowledges from the Word, thus, scientifics understood as the vessels of celestial and spiritual things ; in respect to other men, it denotes sci- ence in general, 1462, 1487, 1491, 4789, 4964—4967; see below 6236. Egypt (and consequently Pharaoh), denotes the natural mind, because science ; when regeneration is treated of, the interior natural, or the natural man renewed, 4967, 4973, 5079, 5080, 5094, 5095, 5118, 5147, 5160, 5336, 5799, 5882, 6511. Pharaoh denotes the natural man, in general, or as a whole, because, in the case of the rege- I 884 PHA PHA 885 11 nerate, the iaterior and exterior natural make one by correspondence, 5160, 5192, 5875. Pharaoh, as king of Egypt, denotes science in general, and also the natural mind in general, because truths and the vessels containing truths make one, 5882, 6147 and citations. Strictly, Pharaoh denotes the natural mind, not as to truths, but as to scientifics into which, as vessels, truths are to be initiated and insinuated, 6236. Pharaoh, therefore, denotes the scientifics of the church, or the natural mind in which they are ; but in the opposite sense, scientifics separated, and opposed to the truths of the church, 6015, 6042, 6092, 6145, 6511, 6651, 6673, 6679, 6681, 6683, 7090. In general (continuing the opposite sense), Pharaoh and his people denote falses, and the per- sons themselves who are in falses and from evil infest others with them ; such are all who have belonged to the church in the world, but have remained in faith alone and lived an evil life, 6867, 7097, 7107, 7110, 7126, 7142, 7161, 7187, 7280, 7317, 7429, 7498, 7502, 7506, 7766, 7926, 8049, 8132, 8138, 8146, 8148, 8165, 8275, 8364, 8528. Pha- raoh without his people, called king of Egypt, denotes those who infest by the absolute false, because king in the genuine sense is truth, 6651, 7220, 7228. Pharaoh and his servants, or his people, understood dis- tinctly, denote the natural mind, and all things of the natural mind from which man thinks and concludes, 7331, 7355, 7396, 7562, 7563, 7565. Pharaoh and his people, or Pharaoh and his servants, denote all falses in general and every false principle in particular; or all and each one of the persons themselves who are in falses, 8143, 8147. The servants of Pharaoh denote infesting spirits of the inferior kind, 7652 ; see also 7396. When the last of the plagues is treated of, and the Israelites are about to be delivered, Pharaoh denotes those who are damned, 7766 end. See Egypt (2), 5275; and concerning the hell denoted by the Red Sea; Egypt (7); Moses (15); see also the summary cited below (4). 2. Abraham and Pharaoh. Sarah going into Egypt with Abram, and she passing for his sister (Gen. xii. 10 — 13), denotes instruction in the science of the Word, and celestial truth first appearing to the natu- ral man as intellectual truth, 1402, 1461—1477, 1495. The woman seen by the princes of Pharaoh, and commended to Pharaoh, and taken to the house of Pharoah (ver. 1 5), denotes the influx of celestial truth into scientifics, the mind captivated by it, 1482 — 1484. Pharaoh said to entreat Abram well for her sake, and he had flock and herd, and he- asses and men-servants, and she-asses and maid-servants, and camels (ver. 1 6), denotes the multiplication of scientifics, and all that is service- able to scientifics because of the desire for truth, 1484| — 1486. Pharaoh and his house meanwhile smitten with great plagues because of the word of Sarai, Abram's wife (ver. 17), denotes the destruction of such scien- tifics as are not serviceable to the internal man, 1487 — 1489. Pharaoh said to call Abram, and the words he addressed to him (ver. 18, 19), denotes the awakened attention, or animadvertence, which comes by sci- ence, and which teaches that truth is really celestial, 1492 — 1497. The command of Pharaoh to his men, who then sent away Abram and his wife, and all that he had (ver. 20), denotes the state when scientifics are relinquished, and celestial things, truths and goods, make one, 1498 — 1502; the whole in a summary, 1495. 3. Joseph and Pharaoh, Joseph sold into Egypt by the Midian- ites (Gen. xxxvii. 36), denotes the state in which divine truth is alien- ated, or referred to scientifics, by those who are in the truth of simple good, 4788. Sold to Potiphar the chamberlain of Pharaoh (ver. 36 and chap, xxxix. 1), denotes its reception in the interiors of scientifics, 4789, 4962, 4965. Pharaoh's anger against the chief of the butlers and the chief of the bakers (chap. xl. 2), denotes the commencement of a new state in the natural man, his aversion for the sensual things of the body, both intellectual and voluntary, 5073—5081. Joseph ministering to them in prison, and interpreting their dreams (ver. 4, 12, 18), denotes instruction as to these things, and the influx of perception into the natural man, 5088, 5121, 5142, 5150, 5168. The third day after, called the birth-day of Pharaoh, when he made a feast to all his servants (ver. 20), denotes the completion of the state when the natural man is regenerated, 5123, 5159 — 5161. The prince of the butlers restored to his office, and said to give the cup into Pharaoh's hand (ver. 21), denotes the sensual things of the intellectual part received and rendered subordinate to the interior natural, 5125, 5126, 5165, 5166, 5241. The chief of the bakers, at the same time, said to be hanged (ver. 22), denotes the sensual things of the voluntary part rejected and damned, 5156, 5157, 5167, 5242. Pharaoh, after these events, at the end of two years of days, said to dream, and in his dream to stand by a river (chap. xli. 1), denotes the foresight of the natural man after the state of conjunction (namely of sensual things exterior and interior), that it extends from interiors to ultimates, 5193—5196. Seven kine ascending out of the river, fair in appearance and fat fleshed, and seen to feed (ver. 2), denotes the truths of the natural man, characterised by faith and cha- rity, and instruction therein, 5197, 5201. Seven other kine, evil in appearance and lean in flesh, said to stand by the first seven on the brink of the river, and to devour them (ver. 3, 4), denotes the falses which appear with truths in the extreme natural, and truths apparently exterminated by them, 5202 — 5207. Pharaoh now said to awake, and then to sleep and dream a second time (ver. 4, 5), denotes the state of illustration when truths are apparently exterminated but really drawn into interiors, and presently a state of obscurity, 5208 — 5211. Seven ears of com now seen to come up on one stalk, fat and good (ver. 5), denotes the scientifics of the church conjoined in their origin, and recep- tive of faith and charity, 5212 — 5213. Seven thin ears, blasted with the east wind, said to spring up after them, and to absorb the fat and full ears (ver. 6, 7), denotes useless scientifics, consumed with cupidi- ties, exterminating the good, 5214—5217. Pharaoh said to awake again, and his spirit troubled in the morning (ver. 7, 8), denotes a state of illustration, and disturbance of the interior affection and thought, 5220—5222. The magicians and the wise men consulted by Pharaoh concerning his dreams, and no one able to interpret them to Pharaoh (ver. 8), denotes the reference to interior and exterior scientifics, and no knowledge therefrom concerning the event, 5223 — 5225. The chief of the butlers now speaking with Pharaoh concerning Joseph (ver. 9), denotes thought reflected from the sensual part subject to the intellec- tual, and hence perception concerning the celestial-spiritual. 5227, 5228. Pharaoh sending, and calling Joseph (ver. 14), denotes the new state when the natural man is in the affection of receiving the celestial-spi- ritual, 5244, 5245. Joseph drawn hastily out of the pit, and shaved. 886 PHA and his vestments changed, and he came to Pharaoh (ver. 1 4), denotes the rejection of whatever impedes influx^ the mutation of state as to those things which are of the exterior and interior natural respectively and finally, communication, 5246 — 5249. Pharaoh now said to speak to Joseph (ver. 15, 17, 39, 41, 44), and Joseph to Pharaoh (ver. 16, 25), denotes the perception and thought of the celestial-spiritual out of the natural, and, conversely, of the natural from the celestial-spiritual, 5251, 5255, 5259, 5262, 5308, 5315, 5325. The dreams of Pharaoh called one dream by Joseph (ver. 25), and a dream twice reiterated (ver. 32), denotes their reference to the interior and exterior natural respect- ively, which act as one mind by conjunction, 5263, 5282. The dreams given that Pharaoh might see what God intended towards him (ver. 25, 28), denotes that apperception is given to the natural man, 5264, 5274. Pharaoh to look out a man intelligent and wise, and place him over the land of Egypt (ver. 33), denotes the result of such apperception as to inflowing truth by which all things in the natural mind are now to be ordered, 5286 — 5288. Pharaoh also to appoint officers over the land, and take up a fifth part of the land in the seven plenteous years (ver. 34), denotes the common principle under which all arrangement must take place, and truths and goods (understood as remains), to be stored up, 5290 — 5292. Corn, by this means, said to be laid up under the hand of Pharaoh, and food in the cities (ver. 35), denotes the good of truth in the power of the natural man, in the interiors of the natural mind, 5295 — 5297. The intelligence and wisdom of Joseph acknow- ledged by Pharaoh, and his advancement over all in the kingdom (ver. 37 — 41, 45), denotes the perception of the natural man that truth and good can only be derived from the celestial- spiritual, and hence, sub- mission thereto, 5306, 5307, 5310—5312, 5316, 5324, 5329, 5333, 5338. The words of Pharaoh, ** Only in the throne will I be greater than thou," (ver. 40), denotes the appearance that such order and au- thority are from the natural, because from the celestial-spiritual by the natural, 5313. Pharaoh said to take his ring from off" his hand, and to put it upon the hand of Joseph (ver. 42), denotes the abdication of power by the natural, and confirmation in power of the celestial-spi- ritual, 5317 — 5318. Vestures of fine linen given to him, and a chain of gold put upon his neck (ver. 42), denotes the external state of the celestial-spiritual resplendent from divine truths, and the conjunction of the interiors with exteriors by good, 5319 — 5320. His riding in the second chariot of Pharaoh, and the people commanded to bow the knee before him (ver. 43), denotes the doctrine of good and truth in which the celestial-spiritual is acknowledged and adored, 5321 — 5323. Joseph now said to be a son of thirty years when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt (ver. 46), denotes the fulness of remains necessary for the presence of the celestial-spiritual in the natural, 5335 — 5336. Said to go out from before Pharaoh, and to pass through all the land of Egypt (ver. 46), denotes the procedure of the celestial-spiritual through all the natural, reducing all to order and submission, 5337—5338. The Egyp- tians and the house of Pharaoh mentioned again when Joseph discovered himself to his brethren (chap. xlv. 2), denotes the ultimates, which are scientifics, and the whole natural mind affected by the manifestation of love when the good of the internal is conjoined with the truths of faith in the external, 5874—5875. God hath made me a father to Pharaoh, PHA 887 lord of all his house, and master [dominor], of all the land of Egypt, said by Joseph (ver. 8), denotes the state of the natural mind, and all therein, now formed by the influx of good, 5902 — 5904. The report that Joseph's brethren were come, said to be heard in the house of Pharaoh (ver. 16), denotes the conjunction that takes place between the truths of the church and the celestial internal man, causing that such influx fills the whole natural mind, 5933. Their coming said to be good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants (ver. 16), denotes the joy that is now difi^used through the natural man, even to his lowest scientifics, 5935—5936. Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say unto your brethren, &c. (in reference to the settlement of Jacob and his family in Egypt, ver. 17), denotes the perception of the natural man from the celestial internal concerning the truths of the church which are now to possess the scientific mind, 5937, 5938 and following num- bers. The wagons of Pharaoh conveying Jacob, and the infants, and the women (his sons' wives), into Egypt (chap. xlvi. 5), denotes doc- trinals from the scientifics of the church, now occupied with truth, and all things of innocence and charity, 6012—6015. The wagons previously said to be given by Joseph at the command of Pharaoh (chap. xlv. 21), denotes the origin of such doctrinals from the internal man, or internal good, according to the pleasure of the external man in them, 5952. Pharaoh told by Joseph concerning the arrival of his father and brethren, their flocks and their herds, that they came from Canaan and were in the land of Goshen (chap, xlvii. 1), denotes perception in the natural from the presence of the celestial internal, that now spiritual good, and all the goods and truths of the church are in the natural mind, in the midst of its scientifics, 6062—6068. Five men, from among his brothers, taken by Joseph and stood before Pharaoh (ver. 2), denotes the insinuation of the truths of the church, in some measure, into scientifics, 6070 — 607 1 . Pharaoh's inquiry concerning their works (occupation), and their reply. We are shepherds, &c. (ver. 3), denotes perception concerning the uses of such truths, and the conclusion that they lead to good, 6073—6074. Pharaoh's name mentioned a second time in their reply. To sojourn in the land we are come, &c. (ver. 4), denotes the continuation of such perception, now as to life in scientifics, 6076—6077. Pharaoh now off'ering to Joseph the best of the land for the use of his father and his brethren (ver. 5, 6), denotes the state of the natural mind under the auspice of the celestial internal, to which spiritual good and the truths of the church are elevated out of the natural, 6081—6085. Jacob brought to Pharaoh by Joseph and stood before him and said to bless him (ver. 7, 10), denotes the insinuation of common or general truth (as distinguished from particulars) into the scientific mind, 6089—6091, 6099. Jacob afterwards said to go out from before Pharaoh (ver. 10), denotes apparent separation between the periods of insinuation and conjunction, 6100. The silver of the Egyptians, and all their possessions, and the people themselves, and their land, all become Pharaoh's, in exchange for food (ver. 14, 17 — 20, 23), denotes that all applicable scientific truth, all the goods of truth, and all that is receptive of such good and truth, thus, the whole scientific mind becomes subject to the natural under the auspice of the celestial internal, 6112, 6115. 6119, 6121—6128, 6135-6138, 6143, 6145. Pharaoh not allowed to buy the land of the priests, but said 888 PHI to give them an appointed portion of food for their sustenance (ver. 22, 26), denotes that the original faculty receptive of good and truth is not in the power of the natural man, but exists by immediate influx from the internal, according to the arrangement and submission of all besides in the external, 6148—6151, 61 67. A fifth part of all the land or its produce when it was again sown by the people, to be Pharaoh's (ver. 24, 26), denotes the storing up of all remains of good and truth in the interior natural, under the auspice of the celestial internal, as the means of future salvation, or regeneration, 6156, 6164 — 6166. The part of Pharaoh, and his servants, and the elders of his house, and the elders of Egypt, in the solemnities of Jacob's funeral (chap. 1. 1 — 13), denotes the ascent and co-operation of the natural mind, and all therein that agrees with good and truth, in the resuscitation of the church, 6497,6509,6511,6517,6519,6523,6535,6554. 4. Pharaoh and the Israelites (commencing Exod. i.). First, the restored church is treated of when good is primary, and it is fructified by the multiplication of truths ; afterwards, when those truths are in- fested by evils and falses in the natural man, 6634, 6635. For particulars, see Egypt (6), Moses (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16), Miracle (7), Numbers (12) p. 816. 5. Passages concerning Pharaoh in the Prophecies^ generally, that Pharaoh denotes those who have faith in scientifics, not in the Word (Is. xix. 11; XXX. 2, 3; Jer. xlvi. 25; xlvii. 1—3; Ezek. xxix. 2—4; xxxii. 2, 3, 7, 8), 6015. PHAREZ and ZARAH, the sons of Tamar, denote the strife whether truth or good is prior in the church, 3325 ; thus, the manner in which truth and good or faith and charity are produced in that state of the church, 4918. See Marriage (36). PHICOL, the chief captain of Abimelech's army, denotes those who are in doctrinals, and are indifferent with regard to charity, 3447. See Abimelech. PHILAUTIA (from the Greek), used to denote the love of one's own selfhood, or the proprium, 1326. PHILISTIA. See below (Philistines), 9340, &c. PHILISTINES [Philist€ei\ 1. Their signification in various senses, Pelisthim, or Philistim, according to the Book of Genesis, belongs to the same family as Mizraim, 1197, cited in Egypt (1); but especially 1198. The Philistines are generally meant where the uncir- cumcised or foreskinned are mentioned in the Word, 4462 end. In the ancient church, all those were called Philistines who talked much of faith and salvation by faith, but had little of its Ufe ; for which reason, they were also especially called the uncircumcised, that is, devoid of charity, 1197; see below, 3412. In consequence of this character, the Philistines denote all those who make the knowledges of faith consist in things of the memory; abstractly, the knowledges themselves, or the science of such knowledges, understood as distinct from the science of natural things, 1197, 1198, br, 2726, 3365, 3410. The Philistines denote those who are in the science of knowledges only, not in the life, and who have rejected the doctrinals of charity and acknowledged the doctrinals of faith ; all such, because they are in the loves of self and of gain, are called the uncircumcised, 3412, 3413. The Philistines denote those who are in the science of knowledges, by which is meant the doctrinals of faith; and not the truths of knowledges or of doctrinals, PHI 889 which are all of the life, 3420. In a good sense, the PhiUstines denote those who are in the doctrinals of faith, and as to life in the good of truth; because they make faith the essential, and the good they do is from the doctrinals of faith, 3459, 3463; see below 9340. In brief, the Philistines denote those who are in doctrinals of faith, and not in a life according to them, 4855, 5897. In words to the same effect, the Philistines denote those who are in faith alone ; thus, who are in truth not from good; also, that the same thing in different periods is denoted by Cain, by Ham, by Reuben, by Simeon and Levi, by Tyre and Sidon, cities of the Philistines, and lastly by Peter when he thrice denied the Lord, 8093. The Philistines denote those who believe in salvation by faith alone separate from good; their errors of doctrine ill., also their quality as manifested in the other life, 8313. In a good sense the Philistines, and the Sea of the Philistines, denote the interior truths of faith ; Tyre and Sidon, which were situated on that sea, in the border of Philistia, knowledges of good and truth ; the land of Philistia, the science of the interior truths of faith; and all Canaan, of which it formed a part, the Lord's kingdom, ill. and sh. 9340. The proper signification of Philistia and the Philistines was derived from the ancient representative church existing there ; hence, like all the nations of Canaan, they first represented the goods and truths of the church, afterwards its evils and falses, because the church was perverted and destroyed among them, 9340. 2. The Philistines in the other Life (understood in a good sense, to mean those who are in the good of faith or of truth,) are separated from those who are in the good of charity; this because their good is not communicative, so that they are not in heaven, but at its threshold, 3459 end. The habitation of the evil Philistines, who oppose them- selves to the good of faith or charity, is in hell, in a plane under the soles of the feet, but in front, to the right; here they dwell in a sort of city, at the present day, in great numbers, 8096. The situation of the hell of the Philistines relative to the hell represented by the Red Sea [Mare Suph] fully described, 8099; see also 8137 cited in Egypt (7). How they infest the well-disposed, 8096; and were therefore cast into hell at the Lord's Advent, 8311. 3. Tgre and Sidon, cities of the Philistines, denote those who pos- sess celestial and spiritual riches, which are knowledges, 1156, 4453, 10,199, 10,227. Abstractly, Tyre and Sidon denote such knowledges themselves; Tyre, the interior; Sidon, exterior,*^. 1201. Sidon called the first-bom of Canaan (Gen. x. 15), denotes exterior knowledges which occupy the place of faith, when the internal of the church is wanting; hence it is named in connection with Egypt, br. 1199, sh. 1201, 1202. Sidon is called the border of Israel, because it denotes exterior knowledges, 1201 end. Zidon in the way to Gerar, and as far as Assam (Gaza), named as the border of the Canaanites (ver. 19), denotes, as above, exterior knowledges, the extension of which among those who were in external worship without internal is here treated of, 1207 — 1211. Zidon named as the border of Zebulon (chap. xlix. 13), denotes the extension of the heavenly marriage of good and truth to knowledges of good and truth, 6386. By Tyre (Ezec. xxvii. 8) is meant the ancient church as to knowledges of good and truth, 4453, 5319; see citations above (1) 9340. Tyre denotes the church as to If 890 PHI PHI 891 knowledges of good and truth; the merchants of Tyre (ib, ver. 22), those who have such knowledges and communicate them, 10,199. The daughter of Tyre (Ps. xlv. 12), denotes the aflfection of truth; king (ver. 13), the truth itself, 10,227. In the opposite sense, the Prince of Tyre, or Tyrus (Ezec. xxviii.), denotes those who are in principles of the false, 4728. Hence, the gain of whoredom, and fornication or whoredom with all the kingdoms of the earth imputed to her (Isa. xxiii. 17), 2466. See Hell, Nations (5). 4. Gerar in Philistia and Ahimelech the King ofGerar, denote faith and the truth of faith, 2504, 3365. Gerar, named in the border of the Canaanites (Gen. x. 19), denotes what is revealed concerning faith; in general, faith itself, 1209—1211. Ahimelech, King of Gerar, denotes faith as received in the rational mind; thus, all who are in the doctrine of faith, who regard spiritual truths, or the rational form of truths, in knowledges, 2504, 2505, 2509, 2510, 3365, 3391, 3392, 3447. In the supreme sense, Ahimelech denotes the Lord himself as received in doctrine, 3393. As to the valley of Gerar, the men of Gerar, and his- torical passages concerning it, see below (5). 5. Abraham in the Land of the Philistines, denotes the instruction of the Lord in doctrinals of charity and faith; as his sojourn in Egypt signified instruction in scientifics, 2496. Abraham said to journey towards the land of the South (Gen. xx. 1), denotes progression in the goods and truths of faith, 2500. And he dwelt between Kadesh and Shur (ib.j, denotes his specific state characterised by the affection of truth interior and exterior, 2502—2503. And he sojourned in Gerar (ib.), denotes instruction in the spiritual things of faith, 2504. Said to address Sarah his wife by the name of sister (ver. 2), denotes that spiritual truth is first thought of as rational truth, or from the rational mind, 2506—2508. Ahimelech King of Gerar, then said to send and to take Sarah (regarded by him as the sister and not the wife of Abra- ham, ver. 2), denotes the first thought of the Lord concerning the doc- trine of faith, that the rational mind should be consulted, 2509—2511. God said to come to Ahimelech in a dream by night, and say to him (ver. 3), denotes perception concerning the doctrine of faith, but as yet obscure, and thought from perception, 2513 — 2515. Behold thou shalt die because of the woman, for she is married to a husband {quod ilia maritata marito, ver. 3), and if thou restore her not thou shalt die (ver. 7), denotes that the doctrine of faith must become naught if the rational is consulted, for that it is really spiritual truth, which also is one with good, 2516—2517, 2537—2538. But Ahimelech had not come near to her (ver. 4), and. Therefore, I suffered thee not to touch her (ver. 6), denotes that the doctrine of faith (though first thought of otherwise,) derived nothing from consulting the rational, 2519, 2531. And Ahimelech said. Lord, wilt thou slay also a just nation (ver. 4), denotes the providential reason why the doctrine of faith should appear such as it was first regarded, lest good and truth should perish toge- ther, 2520. He said unto me, "she is my sister;" and she herself said, "he is my brother" (ver. 5), denotes that the Lord had so thought, and the rational mind itself had so dictated, 2523—2524. Ahimelech said to have acted with rectitude of heart, and purity of hands (verses 5, 6), denotes that such thought with the Lord was from innocence, and from the affection of truth, 2525 — 2526, 2529. Ahime- lech to restore Sarah to the man (Abraham) who is here called a pro- phet (ver. 7), denotes that the spiritual truth of doctrine is to be yielded up undefiled by the rational mind, as the "Word teaches, 2533 — 2534. The promise that Abraham should then pray for him, and he should live (ver. 7), denotes that revelation is then given by influx into the perception and thought, and thus there is life from the Lord in the doctrine of faith, 2535 — 2536. Ahimelech said to rise up early in the morning, and his expostulation with Abraham (verses 8 — 10), denotes a state of clear perception, and the light of confirmation from celestial good, hence a process of reconsideration and conviction [redarguitio'}, 2540, 2546. Ahimelech afterwards said to take flock and herd, and men-servants and maid-servants, which he gave to Abraham and re- stored to him Sarah his wife (ver. 14), denotes that now the doctrine of faith is filled full with rational and natural goods, and with rational and natural truths because it is ascribed to the Lord, 2565 — 2569. The words of Ahimelech, "Behold my land is before thee, dwell thou where it is good in thine eyes" (ver. 15), denotes the perception of the Lord concerning the doctrine of love and charity thus understood, and his presence wherever good is, 2571 — 2572. And to Sarah he said, "Behold, I have given a thousand of silver to thy brother" (ver. 16), denotes perception from spiritual truth and the infinite abundance of rational truth adjoined to good, 2575. The same called a covering of the eyes, &c., whereby Sarah was vindicated (ver. 16), denotes that rational truths are as the vailings or clothing of spiritual truths, so that no fault or hurt is predicable, 2576 — 2578. So Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Ahimelech, and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bare (children, ver. 17), denotes revelation, and, concurrent with it, the wholeness of doctrine as to good, and as to truth, and as to the affections of doctrinals; hence fertility, 2580 — 2584. For Jehovah had closed up every womb of the house of Ahimelech, because of Sarah, Abra- ham's wife (ver. 18), denotes that good could not produce itself through the rational mind if the conjunction here treated of had taken place, 2586 — 2588. A covenant afterwards made between Abraham and Ahimelech (the story of Hagar and Ishmael intervening, chap, xxi.), denotes that divine doctrine is nevertheless invested with appearances taken from human thought and affection, for the sake of the spiritual church, 2719. Summary of the process (its fuller elucidation being reserved for the explanation of the similar covenant entered into be- tween Isaac and Ahimelech), 2720; the reason stated 2719 end. 6. Isaac in the Land of the Philistines. The occurrences between Isaac and Ahimelech (chap, xxvi.), which resemble those between Abraham and Ahimelech, have reference in the internal sense to ap- pearances of truth taken from the rational mind, which serve as the investiture of divine truth, or doctrine, 2719 end, 3362. The relation that Isaac went to Ahimelech king of the Phihstines, to Gerar, because of a grievous famine (ver. 6), denotes the divine rational, admitting doctrinals of faith, or appearances of truth to be adjoined, because of the defect of knowledges of faith, 3365, 3384. The command that he should not descend into Egypt, but should sojourn in Gerar (ver. 2), denotes elevation above scientifics to human rational truths, otherwise called appearances of truth, and instruction therein, 3368 — 3369, 3384. The men of the place said to ask Isaac concerning his woman, and he 892 PHI PHY 893 I II said. "She is my sister" (ver. 7). denotes the i°^^^ ^Id, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things. (Joel iii. 5), denotes the perversion of truths and goods which are pro- faned by those who are in faith when they apply them to evils and falses, 9340. They shall fly upon the shoulder of the PhiHstines towards the sea, said of restored Israel and Judah (Isa. xi. 14), denotes that those who are in the good of faith and the good of love, shall receive and take into possession the interior truths of faith, 9340. Philistia and Tyre to share in the glory of Zion, the city of God (Ps. Ixxxvii. 4), denotes the science of the truths of faith, which receives life from the doctrine of faith, which is of the Word, 9340. PHILOSOPHY. There are three classes of those whom the an- cients called serpents; viz., such as assign sensual, scientific, and philo- sophical reasons, respectively, for denying the existence of the human spirit, and generally, of heavenly things, ill, 196, 259 end, cited 5128. Philosophers think it more sublime to believe that the providence of the Lord is universal than that it is particular ; yet it is a philosophical truth, that no universal providence can exist without a providence in particulars, 1919 end. Intellectual good begins to perish in the church in our day, because of philosophical reasons against divine things; also, that volun- tary good perished in the time of the most ancient church, 2124. Phi- losophy so called (meaning, as in the author's time, metaphysics and loffic especially), draws down the understanding into the dust, and sub- stitutes mere terms for things; the terms "feculence" and "froth" applied to such subjects by the spirits of another earth, 3348. Meta- physicians and logicians described, as they were known to the author, in the other life; also, remarks on the scholastic or philosophical method generally, in a conversation with them; finally, concerning Aristotle, whose state is described as very difl^erent from that of his followers, 4658. The procedure from thoughts to terms, as in the case of Aris- totle himself, is not contrary to order, because the terms are but formu- laries which embody interior things ; but the procedure from terms to thoughts, especially as it rarely goes beyond the terms themselves, is the means of becoming insane rather than wise, ill. 4658. The faculty of right reasoning (thinking well) is from the spiritual world, and to learn thinking by artificial means is destructive of it ; comparatively as dancing is natural, and the dancer would only be impeded, if anxious about the movements of the fibres and muscles when about to dance, 521, 4658. The science and philosophy of the present day are alto- gether different from the scientifics of ancient times, which had reference to the correspondence between natural and spiritual things; the scien- tifics of the present day, on the contrary, rather withdraw the mind from such things, and often consist in mere words, 4966; compare 259. How impossible it is for sensual and scientific reasonings to lead into the doctrine of faith, 2588 ; instances from discourse with spirits who had been philosophers, 6317, 6326. See Learned. PHINEHAS [Pinchasus'\, with whom it is said, Jehovah made an everlasting covenant (Num. xxv. 12, 13), denotes love, or the all of love, as represented by the priesthood, 1038. PHLEGM, OF THE Brain, [pituita, phlefftna]. Brief description of the spirits who correspond thereto in the Grand Man, 5386, 5724. PHYSICIAN [medicus^. Physicians, medicines, &c., denote the means of preservation from evils and falses, which are the truths of faith, ill, and sh, 6502. See Medicine, to Heal. 894 PIL PHUT [Puth]. See Lybia. PIA MATER. See Brain. PICTURES. Truths without good correspond to the mere pictures of flowers and fruits, which however beautiful externally, are nothing butclav, 10,194. PIECES l/rustra]. To be broken into pieces, where the calf of Samaria is treated of (Hos. viii. 6), denotes that good not from the Lord will become nought or be dissipated, 9391. See Broken, Segments, Part, Division. PIETY [pietas]. A life of pietv, without a life of charity, con- duces to no good, but piety and charity conjoined conduce to all that is good, br. 8252. The duties of piety and of charity respectively, defined, 8253. That the worship of the Lord is essentially a life of charity, or the love of the neighbour; but piety without charity, is the love of self, 8254 PIGEON. See Dove. PILDASH. See Nahor. PILES [hcemorroides]. See Em e rods. PILL, to. See Peel. PILLAR [columnd]. 1. That its signification is derived from its use as a support, because the natural of which it is always predicated is the basis or support of the spiritual; passages cited (Jer. i. 18; Ps. Ixxv. 3 ; Rev. iii. 12 ; Job ix. 6), 8106 end. Pillars denote the goods of love and of faith, because it is by these that heaven and the church are sustained, sh. 9674, hr, 9747, 9768. Pillars denote goods sustain- ing; bases of the pillars, truths sustaining, 9757. See Numbers (15) ; 9674, 9677, 9689—9692, 9747—9753, 9757; Moses (23), 9388— 9391. 2. The Pillar and Cloud of Fire, between the Israelites and Egyp- tians, denotes the Lord's presence with those who are in good and truth, and with those who are in evil and the false respectively, 7989, 8197. A pillar of cloud by day and of fire by night, relative to the Is- raelites only, denotes his presence with the regenerate in their recurring states of illustration and obscurity, ill. 8105—8110; br. 5923. A pillar of cloud in the daytime, denotes the state of illustration, tempered by the obscurity of truth, 8106. A pillar of fire by night denotes the state of obscurity, tempered by illustration from good, 8108. When the pillar went from before the Israelites and stood behind them, it represented the presence of the Lord, guarding the voluntary part, as previously the intellectual, 8195. Jehovah said to look out from the pillar of cloud and fire, denotes influx from divine good and divine truth, 8212—8213. Jehovah said to speak in the pillar of cloud, denotes divine truth in the literal sense of the Word, 9406. The pillar of cloud said to stand at the door of the tent when Moses had entered, denotes the dense obscu- rity of the Jewish nation in respect to the Word, 10,55 1 . See Cloud, Fire. 3. Pillar of Angels. The author mentions his descent into the lower earth surrounded by angelic spirits; and that such is the wall of brass mentioned in the Word (Jer. i. 18; xv. 20), 699, 4940. When the spiritual are delivered from infestation, they are led safely through the midst of hell guarded by a pillar of angels, of which the author was an eye-witness, 8099. By the pillar that went before the Israelites, a PIT 895 company of angels is to be understood, in the midst of whom was the Lord, 8192 — 8195. A pillar of cloud by day, and of fire by night, represented the state of heaven, because the angels are continually per- fected by variations and changes of state, 8108. 4. A pillar descending from heaven^ described by the author as representing by its cerulean hue the good of the celestial church, 4328. PILLOWS OR BOLSTERS. See Neck. PINE \t(Bda\ See Fir-tree. PIPE ^fistuid\, Tabrets and pipes (Ezek. xxxviii. 13), denote affec- tions and the joy thereof, 8339. See Music. PIPE \tibiciL\, The speech of certain spirits described, that it resembled the single note of a pipe, being void of all rationality, 2605. PIPES [ca/a/we], in the description of the golden candlestick, denote truths from good, 9551, 9555, 9556. See Representation. PISON \^Piiichon\y denotes the intelligence of faith, originating in love, 110. See Eden, Havilah, Man (43). PIT \_foved\. Places of vastation in the lower earth are called pits, and are always meant by pits in the Word ; this, because pits de- note falses, and the bound in a pit those who are in falses, and are wil- ling to be liberated from them, fully sh, 4728, br. sh. 5037, 5038, 5246, 6854. The casting of Jeremiah into a pit has the same signifi- cation as that of Joseph, namely the rejection of divine truths among falses, 4728 end. Pits said to be empty and without water, denote falses, by which is meant doctrines of faith in which there is no truth because no good, br. ill. 4736, sh. 4744. A pit denotes the state of vastation, and temptation ; release from a pit (or a prison), the state of deliverance from temptations, 5246, 5249. A pit denotes the false ; opening a pit, the reception of the false; digging a pit, the fashioning of the false one's self; falling into a pit, perversion of the truth, falHng by error, 9084 — 9086. Moab shall be as Sodom, the sons of Ammon as Gomorrah, a place for the breeding of nettles and salt-pits (Zeph. ii. 9), denotes good v«istated, or evil, and truth vastated, or the false, 2455. They came to the pits and found no water (Jer. xiv. 2), denotes doctrines without truths, 2702. Israel a lion's whelp, the nations said to be against him, he was taken in their pit (Ezek. xix. 3, 4, 8), denotes the spiritual church fallen into evils, and the false of evil, 9348. The Rock whence ye were hewn, and the pit whence ye were dug, here used in a good sense (Isa. li. 1), denotes the Lord as to Divine Truth, 3703. See Prison, Bound, Snare, Custody, Earth {last paragraph, p. 138—139). (MosES, 13, 17). Tribes, Vastation. PITCH [piXy bitumen^ Noah commanded to make an ark of Gopher wood, mansions in it, and pitched within and without, denotes the man of the church, distinguished as to will and understanding, and preserved from the inundation of lusts, 602, 638— 645; particularly 645. The rivers of the land turned into pitch, the dust into sulphur, and the whole land burning pitch (Is. xxxiv. 9), denotes dense and dire falses, or phantasies, and dire lusts, 643 end, 1299, 1861; more fully, 2446; cited also 6724. Bitumen for clay, in the building of the tower (Gen. xi.), denotes the evil of cupidity which took the place of good, 1299. The valley of Siddim, full of wells of bitumen (chap. xiv. 10), denotes the uncleanness of falsities and cupidities ; the wells falses, because they contained unclean waters, and the bitumen cupidities from vol. ii. s 896 PLA PLA 897 the sulphurous stench in such water, 1688. Bitumen denotes good mixed with evils; pitch, good mixed with falses; hence Moses put in a coffer of bulrushes bituminated with bitumen and pitch, denotes the comparatively vile exteriors, and the good mixed with evils and falses, in which the divine law is first received, ill. 6724. Pitch when named with sulphur, is mentioned in place of fire, and fire in the opposite sense denotes evil, 2446, 6724. See Sulphur; also Noah (5), Moses (6), Language (6), 645. PITCHER [cadus']. See Water Pot. PITHOM AND RAAMSES, treasure cities built for Pharaoh by the oppressed Israelites, denote the quality of doctrines from falsified truths, 6661 — 6662. See Rameses. PLACE, OR Put, to, [ponere]. See Place (14). PLACE [locus]. 1. Phenomena of place in the other Life. How unreasonable it is to deny that the spirit is substantial, and that it can be in place, 446, 4622. In the other life, changes of place, distances, relative situation, presence and absence, &c., are changes of state, 1273 •—-1277, 1376 — 1381, cited below (4). Changes of place in the other life^are changes of state, while the body remains in the same place, ill. 1273 — 1278. The idea of place and distance is not real with spirits, but is varied according to their state of thought and affection ; not so with the angels when they think from state, 1376, 1379. Place, muta- tion of place, and distance in the world of spirits, are appearances; and under certain circumstances, they are fallacies, 1376 end, 1377, 1380; see below 3356. All souls and spirits whatsoever keep the same place eternally, notwithstanding that places and distances change according to state; this, because the common state rules the particulars, and after such changes the original situation returns, 1377. Space and time are proper to nature, but are of no account in the other life; they appear something in the world of spirits, because spirits recently separated from the body retain their natural ideas, 2625. All things in the other life appear as in space, and succeed as in time, but such spaces and times are in themselves changes of state; hence, fallacies caused by changes of state are induced on others by evil spirits, 3356; the latter fact repeated 3640. It appears to spirits and angels that they move ' from place to place, in all respects like men, yet such appearances are really mutations of their states of life ; hence, by places or spaces, and by times, are always to be understood states, 4882. There are no spaces and times in the other life, but states, which states produce in externals a real and altogether living appearance of progression and motion, as through space, 5605. The appearance of space and time in the other life, is as real as the appearance that life is in man, when yet the fact is, that it flows in, 5605. The appearance of place in the other life is according to the state of life, and, in itself, is state; passages cited 9305 end. Spaces, distances and progressions, in the other life are appearances derived from changes of state of the interiors ; such changes of state also are the first cause of spaces and distances in the natural world ; hence it is, that a man as to his spirit, can be transferred to any earth in the universe, 9440. Remoteness of place is an appearance produced by difference of state, and changes of state are according to differences of the interiors; the author's experience of this when he was led by the Lord to an earth remotely situated in the universe, 9967 ; another illustration also from experience, 10,734. All presence, and all idea of space in the other life is determined by affections of the love, and the affinities belonging to such affections, ill. 10,146. All turn themselves and thus come into place according to their loves; also, all things are communicated, received, and rejected, according to loves, 10,130; fur- ther eV/. 10,189. 2. Places of Vastation in the other Life. See Pit. 3. Distances in the other Life, are appearances, which denote diver- sity in the state of life, 9104, 9967. The societies of heaven appear at a distance from one another according to the difference of their affection as to truth and good, 6602. Motion, change of place, journeying, &c. in the other life, are all so many mutations of the state of life, 1273 — 1275, 1377, 3356, 5605, 9440, 10,734. Distance, understood spiritu- ally, has for its object the divine instead of space ; hence, all idea of space is relative to truth and good from the Lord ; and to be far off is to be remote from the divine, or the internal in which the divine is, ill, and^A. 8918. 4. Situation in the other Life, treated in the seriatim passages cited above, 1273—1277, 1376—1381. Among the wonders of another life, these five are mentioned ; firsts that spirits and angels are distinct as to situation, though places and distances are only varieties of state ; secondly, that their situation is constantly the same relative to the human body, in whatsoever direction a person turns himself; thirdly, that no distance can render an angel or spirit invisible, yet only so many are seen as the Lord concedes; fourthly, whatever the distance, a spirit can be instantly present when called to mind, so as to be heard, and even ioMch^A.', fifthly, in the world of spirits there is no idea of time, 1274. The phenomena of place were manifested to the author by his being led, simply by changes of state, from place to place \jper man- siones\^ 1273, 5605. The general situation of spirits in the other hfe is such, that angels are at the right hand of the Lord, evil spirits at the left, the middle sort in front, the very evil \maligni\, at the back, the aspiring above the head, and the hells under foot, 1276. The rela- tive situation of spirits is constantly the same to eternity, not only in respect to the Lord, but to every man and angel, in whatsoever direction he looks, 1274, 1276. The place and situation of spirits relative to the human body, is briefly described from the author's experience, 4403 ; and the similar situation of those in heaven, 10,189. It is from this constant order that all are most present to the Lord, 1277; for none are too distant to be seen, and societies are most distinctly situated, 1274 cited above. The situation of men as to their souls is the same as that of spirits in the Lord's kingdom; and hence, however distant they may be from each other in the body, they can discourse together, and come into association, if only their internal sight be opened, 1277; see below 3644, 4067. There are two kinds of changes of place in the other life ; the/r«^, which keeps them in the same situation relative to the human body, which is an appearance ; the second, that spirits can present them- selves in places where they have really no situation, which is a fallacy, 1376 end, 1377, 1378, 1380 end, 3356; see below 3640. The true situation of spirits is constantly the same ; hence, as to the organical substances of their bodies, they really are not where they appear in situation, 1378. Souls and spirits not yet allotted to their constant situation in the Grand Man, are seen in various places, now here now s2 898 PLA there; a comparison of such- wandering spirits with fluids in the body, 1381. Repeated statement of the above-named phenomenon, that the societies of heaven preserve the same situation constantly, in whatsoever direction a man, spirit, or angel may turn himself, 3638, 3039, 4321, 4882, 10,379. The hells resemble the heavens in this particular, that their situation is constantly the same, but it is beneath the soles of the feet; also, that the appearance of some in other places is a fallacy, 3640. All in hell are in a situation and position, opposite to those in heaven, having the head downwards and the feet upwards, 3641. Every man in existence is situated as to his soul, either in the Grand Man, which is heaven, or out of it, in hell, 3644. The situation of man in the society of spirits, is such that all his changing experience when regenerating is according to the change of societies, ill. 4067. Every one in the Grand Man holds a constant situation according to his state of truth and good; hence situations in the other life are states, 4321. The situation of all in the Grand Man is from the Lord, who constantly holds the centre, and is the source of life to all, 4321. .5, The Situation of the Vessels recipient of Life in Man, is contrary to the true order, 3318. 6. The Situation of Sacred Buildings, namely, east and west, derives its origin from representatives in the other life, 9642 end. See Quarters. 7. Places in the Land of Canaan, derive their signification from the existence of the most ancient church, and afterwards of the ancient church, there, 567, 3686,4447,44,54,4516—4.517, 4580, 5136, 6516; especially the summary, 9340. To be led into the land of Canaan, here called a place, denotes introduction into heaven understood as a state, 9305. 8. A Holy place, or Sanctuary, denotes a state of love and faith, 3652; celestial love; the Lord as to his divine human, 3210, 6502; also, the good of love in which the Lord is present, 10,105, 10,129, 10,130. The holy place, the holy of holies, and the vail between them, represented heaven, 9678, 9680. See Holy. 9. To be led by the Spirit into another Place, is predicated of a peculiar state of vision ; the author's experience, 1884. The spirit of man can go to any place, however remote, while his body remains in the same place, 9440, 9967, 10,734. 10. The Places in which the Sun and the Planets appear in the idea of Spirits, is constantly the same, br. ill. 12\1, 7358, 7800, 9755. 1 1. Signification of place or Space. Generally, place denotes state, 2625, 2837, 3356, 3387, 4321, 4882, 5605, 7381, 9440, 9967, 10,146; all cited 10,580; from experience, 1273—1277, 1376—1381, 4321, 4882, 10,146, 1058, all cited above (1, 2). Place or space de- notes state as to esse; time, as to existere, br. ill. 2625; see below 8325, 8722. The name of a place in the literal sense of the Word denotes the quality of a state; and this, by a change of ideas from natural to spiritual, 2837, 3111, 3115. Space and time denote state ; and motion, being successive progression in space and time, change of state; this because there is no idea of space and time in the internal man, 3356. Places, distances, and all ideas relative to them in the Word, are appearances of truth, so expressed in accommodation to human ideas; but they denote states, sh. 3387. It is impossible for PLA 899 man to have the least thought but what partakes of space and time ; angels however think of state as to esse instead of place, and state as to existere instead of time, 3387, particularly 3404, 3857, 4882, 7381, 8325, 8918. Time and space denote state, because as the former are derived from the apparent revolution of the natural sun, so the latter from the sun of heaven, ill. 7381. Space denotes state as to esse, or as to good; time, as to existere, or as to truth, 8325. Place denotes state, here predicated as to good, 8722. Modified by other expressions, place may also denote state as to faith and charity, or faith, understood of charity, 8938. In order to a right understanding of the Word in the internal sense, all idea of place, of time, and of person, must be rejected, and states conceived of, 10,133. 12. Passages in which Place is mentioned. Look from the place where thou art, northward and southward, and eastward and westward, said to Abram (Gen. xiii. 14), denotes the state of the Lord when illu- minated, his perception of the states of all in the universe, past, pre- sent, and to come, 1604, 1605. Sodom twice called a place, instead of a city, in the intercession of Abraham, (chap, xviii. 24, 26), denotes the state of those whose truths could be filled with goods, these being the fifty just, 2251, 2253, 2262. Abraham said to return to his place, after pleading for Sodom (ver. 33), denotes that the Lord ceased to think from the maternal human, and that he returned to the state in which he was before, 2288.

Surely there is no fear of God in this place, said by Abraham when he caused Sarah to pass for his sister in the land of the Philis- tines (chap. XX. 1 1), denotes the state in which there is no regard for spiritual truth, 2553. Sarah to pass for his sister at every place in Philistia to which they should come (ver. 13), denotes that celestial truth is received for rational truth, in every conclusion from rational thought, 2562. Abraham said to lift up his eyes and see the place afar off, when he was about to offer up Isaac (chap. xxii. 4), denotes the Lord's intuition from the divine, and foresight in regard to state (the state here treated of being the unition of the human to the divine and the salvation of the spiritual), 2789, 2790. Abraham said to give a name to the place, when he offered up the ram instead of Isaac (chap, xxii. 14), denotes the state of the spiritual, the quality of which is from the Lord's divine human, 2836. Is there in thy father's house a place for us to pass the night, in the questions addressed to Rebecca (chap, xsiv. 23), denotes exploration of state as to the good of charity, and in particular as to the affection for truth (which is only to be found in the good of charity), when truth is about to be initiated into good, 3111, 3115. Surely Jehovah is in this place (chap, xxviii. 16), how terrible is this place (ver. 17), said by Jacob, denotes the divine in the state there treated of, which is one of illustration, and the holy fear which characterizes such a state, 3716, 3719. Jacob said to call the name of that place Bethel, which before was called Luz (ver. 19), denotes quality from the in-dwelling of good, whereas the prior state had its quality from truth, 3729, 3730. All the men of the place collected by Laban, and he made a feast, on the evening of Jacob's marriage (chap. xxix. 900 PLA 22), denotes all the truths of that state now passing through initiation, previous to conjunction, 3831, 3832. Send me away and I will go to my place and my land, said hy Jacob after Joseph was born (chap. XXX. 25), denotes the desire of the natural man, after he has acknow- ledged spiritual good, tending to conjunction with the rational (under- stood by Isaac), 3973. Laban said to return to his own place, after parting with Jacob and with his sons and daughters (chap. xxxi. 55), denotes the end of the representation by Laban, and the prior state resumed, 4217. Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, where he had wrestled with the angel (chap, xxxii. 30), denotes the state of temptation previous to the conjunction of natural truth with celestial- spiritual good, 4298. God said to ascend from upon Jacob in the place where he spoke with him (chap. xxxv. 13), and Jacob set up a pillar in the place (ver. 14), and called the name of the place Bethel (ver. 1 5), denotes an interior state which is predicated of elevation to the divine, the holy principle of truth therein, and hence, the state of the divine natural, 4578, 4580, 4583. The men of the place questioned by Judah concerning the supposed harlot (chap, xxxviii. 21), and the men of the place answering him (ver. 22), denotes the consultation of truths concerning the state there treated of, and afterwards perception from truths, 4889, 4896. Joseph put into prison into a place where the king's prisoners were bound (chap, xxxix. 20), denotes the tempta- tion to which spiritual good is subject in the natural man, especially among falses, 5035, 5038. The place upon which thou standest is holy ground, said to Moses when Jehovah spoke with him out of the midst of the bush (Exod. iii. 5), denotes the state in which the holy proceeding from the Lord can be received, 6845. The promise of Jehovah to lead the Israelites to a land good and broad, to the place of the Canaanites and Hittites, &c.

No man saw his brother, and none arose from their place [et non mrrexerunt de-sub se] during the darkness of Egypt (chap. x. 23), denotes no perception of the truth of good, and no elevation of mind with those who are in falses, 7716, 7717. Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thy inheritance in the place thou hast made for thee to dwell in, O Jehovah (chap. xv. 17), denotes the introduction of the spiritual into heaven, and their continual regeneration, in a state of good which is from the Lord alone, 8325 — 8328. Abide ye every man in his place [quiescite quisque sub «e], let no man go out from his place, on the seventh day (chap. xvi. 29), denotes the state of peace when the Lord leads by good, in which state the regenerate are enjoined to remain, 8517, 8518. The words of Jethro after his advice to Moses, "All this people shall come upon their place in peace " (chap, xviii. 23), denotes the change of state when the regenerate are led by good, previous to which judgment from truths is predicated, and truths must be arranged, 8722. In all places in which I put the memory of my name, I will come to thee and I will bless thee, said by Jehovah (chap. xx. 24), denotes every one's state of faith receptive of divine influx, 8938, 8939. A place of refuge appointed for him who should kill a man, without premeditation (chap. xxi. 13), denotes that no guilt, and consequently no punishment of guilt, accrues because of hurt done to the truth of PLA 901 faith when it is not done from the will, 901 1. Behold I send an angel before thee, to bring thee into the place which I have prepared (chap, xxiii. 20), denotes the Lord as to the divine human, by whom the faith- ful are introduced into heaven, according to their state of life, 9304, 9305; the similar passage (chap, xxxii. 34) explained 10,507, 10,508. The flesh of the ram of fillings to be seethed in the holy place (chap. xxix. 31), denotes the preparation of good to the uses of life, which is done by truths of doctrine in a state of illustration from the Lord, 10, 105. Behold there is a place with me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock, said to Moses, when he desired to see the glory of Jehovah (chap, xxxiii. 21), denotes a state of faith in God, 10,580. 13. To put or to place [ponere~\, meaning one thing upon another, is, in the spiritual sense, to adjoin, 2798. To put on, understood of garments, is to apply, namely, truths to goods, or scientifics to truths, 6918, 6919. To put upon the shoulder, in order to bear or carry, denotes preservation, 9836. Note : to put, is idiomatic, and has there- fore many nice shades of meaning in the spiritual sense; generally it has reference to order, arrangement, application, influx, and one thing put in another may even denote the discovery of one thing existing in another; see 6725, 8712, 9933. 14. To place, set, or appoint [^eonstituere^, has reference to the arrangement in order of good and truth, 5288.

See Pestilence; and see Moses (12). PLAIN [planities]. A plain generally denotes whatever is of doc- trine or truth, sh. 2418, br. 2450, 4236. Lot said to lift up his eyes, and look upon all the plain of Jordan (Gen. xiii. 10), denotes the ex- ternal man when illuminated, and his perception of goods and truths, 1584 — 1585. Look not behind thee (to the cities) neither stay thou in all the plain, said to Lot (chap. xix. 17), denotes that doctrinals are not to be regarded, but love and charity (signified by the mountain whither he was to escape), 2417—2419. The cities overthrown, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities (ver. 25), denotes the separation of truths and doctrinals, and every good that was in truth, from the evil, 2449 — 2451. No city shall escape, and the plain shall be destroyed (Jer. xlviii. 8), denotes false doctrine and whatever per- tains to il, 2418. Gog and Magog said to go up on the plain of the earth (translated breadth. Rev. xx. 9), denotes the vastation of all truth of doctrine by those who are in external worship void of internal, 2418, 4236. The Mount of Esau, and the plain of the Philistines (Obad. ver. 1 9), denote the good of love and the truth of faith, 9340. PLANE [planum]. 1. General Description of Three Planes pro- vided for Man's Regeneration, 1. The formation of the will from infancy to boyhood. 2. The formation of the understanding by sciences and knowledges, which takes place in youth and adult age. 3. The conjunction of the celestial remains of infancy with truths and goods, 1555. The regeneration of man begins from infancy, and continues to the last hour of his life in the world; yet all this is only to provide a plane for the continued perfection of his life to eternity; passages cited, 9334. 2. General Description of Three Planes by which the Lord rules 902 PLA all Men. 1 . The interior conscience (when it exists), which is formed of spiritual truth and good. 2. The exterior conscience, which is formed from natural good and truth, the sense of what is just, equit- able, moral, and right in civil society. 3. The outmost plane, by which even the evil are ruled, consisting in a sense of fear for the sake of reputation and self-honour, gain, self-love and the love of the world, 4167; further ilL .5145 cited immediately below; 6207 cited below (5). The three planes described above act as one with the regenerate, because the one flows into the other, and by the interior the exterior is disposed into a corresponding form, 4 1 67. The three general planes which form the order of man's life are the terminations of so many distinct degrees, corresponding to the three heavens; how they are formed and by what terms they are distinguished, fully ill, 5145. The third, or outmost plane, by v\hich the Lord governs man in the world, namely, that formed by his own loves, is of no account in the other life, because he is then remitted into his interiors, 6495. When man is regenerated, however, the pleasures of the body and mind, serve as the ultimate plane in which spiritual good, with all its felicity and blessings, is ter- minated, 8413. See Man (19). 3. The Plane Receptive of Good and Truth in Man, is the internal freedom which he acquires by compelling himself to act according to the Lord's precepts, ill, 1937. The plane or ground receptive of good and truth is called conscience, and must be acquired while man hves in the world, 3957. The plane receptive of spiritual and celestial things is in the interior natural, and this man carries with him into the other life, but the exterior natural is put off by death, ill, 5079. The plane for celestial and spiritual things, is derived from sensuals, but it is by the action of the internal man upon them, whereby they are drawn into the service of the internal, ill. 5081. The plane in which good from the Lord is received and in which it rests, or is finished, is the interior conscience; without this plane it flows down into the exterior and is turned into vile delights, ill. 5145; see below, 6845. The plane of interior thought and aff*ection is in exteriors, in which the interiors are reflected as in a mirror; hence, the formation of this plane com- mences from infancy; ill. by the face, the eyes, and the speech, 5165. The first plane when man is regenerated is formed by scientifics, from which truths are afterwards concluded and in which they are termi- nated; in this way the understanding is formed which receives the truth of faith; in which faith, again, is received charity, 5901, 6750. When the influx of faith and love from the Lord is received by man, he is elevated above sensual things, and the divine no longer flows down into them but is received in the interior plane to which man is elevated, 6845. 4. Innocence Described as the Plane in which Love and Charity from the Lord are received^ 4797. External innocence, such as that of infancy, is the plane of the new life, when man is regenerated; the difference between external and internal innocence described; passages cited in seriatim order, 10,021. Innocence, or the good of innocence in infancy, is preserved in man till adult age, and unless destroyed by a life of evil, it serves as the plane in which truths are received in order to nian's regeneration, Itr. ill. 10,110. See Man (23). 5. The Plane of Communication between Ileave^i and Man, is in the PLE 903 exterior man, but the communication itself is by the interiors; hr. ill, and the diff'erence in the case of the Jewish church explained, 4288. They who arc in natural good not spiritual, have no plane in which heaven can operate, ill. 5032, 77^ 1 ; this, and the preceding citation both ill. 5036, 8002. The plane into which the angels operate is formed by the truths of faith, rooted in the aff^ection for truth, and become of the life by act, ill, 5893; further ill. and shewn to be the same as the interior conscience, 6207, 6213, 8002. 6. The various Planes in which Spirits and Angels appear, with reference to the human body, described from the author's experience, 4403. See Man (32),^ Influx (7, 8), Heaven (7). 7. The Genuine Face of an Angel Described as the Plane upon which other faces are induced, according to his communication with societies, 4797, 6604; the similar case of evil spirits, 4798, 5717. Sec Face. 8. That there are two Planes from which all the Colcmrs are re- flected, namely, opaque white, and black, 1042, 3993, 4530. See Colours. PLANET. See Universe. PLANE-TREE \^platanus\, or chesnut, denotes natural truth, 4014. See Fir-tree. PLANKS, the, \asseres\, of the habitation, or tabernacle, denote good sustaining heaven, 9634, 9636, 9642, 9649. See Numbers (15), p. 821. ' PLANT, to, [plantare, Ex. xv. 17], denotes to regenerate, ill. by comparison with a tree, 8326. To plant vineyards and drink the wine thereof (Amos ix. 14), is to cultivate whatever is of the spiritual church, and to appropriate its truths, 5117. See Man (25); Perception (48). PLATE OF Pure Gold, the, [bractea], on which was inscribed * Holiness to Jehovah,* denotes illustration from divine good, 9930 — 9932. See Priest. PLATTER. See Cup, Vessel. PLAY, to, OR MAKE Sport of, [ludere, illudere'], denotes derision, predicated of those who are in truth and not at the same time in good ; the case of Lot and the men of Sodom, 2403; that of Ishmael and Isaac, 2654; used in the sense of anger and indignation by the wife of Potiphar, 5014, 5026. To deceive by a lie, in the case of Pharaoh, expressed by the same word, 7467. How hurtful it is to quote the Word in sport, 961. PLAY AND TO Laugh [ludere, ridere'], in a good sense denotes love, the affection of truth, the joy or festivity of the interiors, 3392 ; ill, and sh. 10,416. See Dance. PLEASURE [yoluptas], 1. The State of those who have lived in Pleasures contrary to order. They who make life consist in the indul- gence of pleasures, appetites, and sensual things, are images of hell, because the order of heaven is destroyed in them, 911. They who have lived in mere pleasures, are first introduced into similar delights after death; but soon the scene is changed, and they are carried down into an excrementitious hell where they appear carrying filth, and lamenting their lot, 943, 4948, 5395. Women of low condition who have become rich and given themselves up to pleasures, when they meet in the other 904 PLE POI 905 life, treat each other Hke furies, beat each other, and tear each other's hair, 944. Whatever phantasies have been indulged in the life of the body, are changed into corresponding dehghts hereafter; they whose highest good has consisted in pleasures, especially adulterers, dwell in places stinking as from urine, &c., 954, 1514, 4464, 5059. The num- ber of those who have lived in mere pleasures is very great at this day in the other life; their influx is all in favour of self and the world, 6201. 2. The Idolatry and Dominion of Pleasures. There are three uni- versal kinds of idolatry, namely, the love of self, the love of the world, and the love of pleasure, br. 1357. When man is in such a state that the pleasures of the body and the senses are regarded as the sole end of life, and the external dominates over the internal, he is said to be in freedom from the proprium ; this state contrasted with that of heavenly freedom from the Lord, when the internal has the dominion, 5786. 3. Indulgence in Pleasures a cause of Disease, 5712, 8378. 4. That Good from the Lord is turned into mere Pleasure and Voluptuousness, namely if it be not terminated by conscience, or, in a higher degree, by perception, ilL 5145. See Man (19), Plane (3). 5. That Apperception is rendered obscure by Pleasures, because the life is then in externals, with only sufficient influx from interiors to restrain from unseemly actions, 5141. They who live in mere plea- sures, adulterers and others, cannot be elevated above the sensual lumen, which prevails in hell, and is replete with scandals against heavenly and divine things; from experience, 6310; further ill. 6564, 8378. 6. That Pleasures were relinquished by the Lord, which also are here attributed to the voluntary part only ; the sensuals of the intellec- tual part being described otherwise, 1542, 1547; comparison with man, 2204. See Lord (22). 7. Pleasures allowable when not inconsistent with Order. Pleasures are not denied to man provided only they are not regarded as an end, and the interiors are good, 945, 995, 997, 3951. It is the interior affections that become manifest in pleasures, which also derive their quality from delight, either as heavenly or infernal, ill. 994, 995. The delight in pleasure is from use, for which reason conjugial love affords the greatest of all delights, its use being the most eminent, 997. Plea- sures are of two kinds, those of the voluntary part, and those of the intellectual part ; they are also distinguished as clean or unclean ; or, into such as agree, and such as do not agree with celestial love, 994, 1547; see 1542, 1547 cited below (3). Pleasures are denoted by creep- ing things ; and such as have good in them by creeping things that have Ufe, sh. 994. Pleasure and what is pleasurable \yolupe'] in the body, exists from delight, which delight is called the good of the natu- ral man, and when in order is from charity, 2184 end, 3951. The de- lights of the regenerate partake in some measure of worldly and sensual delights, but they are tempered by spiritual good from the Lord, 2204 cited below (3). The regenerate are first introduced into the good of the sensual part, or the pleasurable [ro/Mpe], which good is denoted by Mount Gilead, and the healing truths conjoined to it, by balm in Gilead, 4117, 4124, 4748. The regenerate are not finally deprived of the pleasures of the body and mind, but enjoy them more fully ; the difference is, that they no longer constitute the end of life, but spiritual good and its feli- city is received and terminated in them, ill. 8413. Pleasures and worldly delights without good and truth, contrasted with the same plea- sures when receptive of spiritual good ; also that the use and end in pleasure renders it spiritual or not spiritual, 5025. That the pleasurable [volupe^ to those who are in good is to render their good perfect by truths, hence their desire for them ; the pleasurable to the evil, on the contrary, is evil confirmed by falses, 5623. See Delight. 8. The Good of Pleasure ; how it is to be understood in a proper sense, 2184 end, 3951, 4117, 4124, 4748 cited above (7). In the oppo- site sense, it is the good of the natural hfe separated from the celestial, 8410 ; the two states ill. 8413. PLEDGE, OR Pawn, a, [piynus, arrhabo], denotes certainty, 4872, 4873, 4877. The pledge of conjugial love is innocence, hence it was an ancient custom when intimacy with a wife was renewed to send her a kid, br, sh. 4871. The pledge given by Judah, was not one of conjugial love, but of external conjunction, because he regarded Thamar as a har- lot ; on this account she did not receive the kid, 4871, 4874, 4910. The raiment of another taken in pledge for something lent, and restored again (Exod. xxii. 26 ; Dent. xxiv. 10—13), has reference to the recep- tion and communication of truth ; the law of order concerning which is ill. 9212—9213 ; from what occurs in the other life, 9213 end. PLENUM. See Full. PLEURA. Description of spirits who refer to diseased tubercles in the pleura and other membranes, 5188. The pleura mentioned by way of comparison with the peritonaeum, 5378. PLEXUS. Intermediate angels between the celestial and spiritual, bv whom the two heavens are conjoined, correspond to the cardiacal plexus, 9670. PLOUGHING [aratio], translated 'earing,' but meaning when the ground is prepared for seed (Gen. xlv. 6), denotes preparation from good to receive truths; thus, it denotes, in a general sense, good, sh, 5895. Ploughing, here translated * earing-time ' also, but meaning especially 'seed-time' (Exod. xxxiv. 21), denotes the implantation of truth in good, ill. and sh. 10,669. The law against ploughing with an ox and an ass together (Deut. xxii. 10), was derived from the ideas of angels, who cannot endure to think of good and truth as separate things, 5895. This law also denotes that states of good and truth are not to be confounded one with another, and has reference to the dis- tinction of the Lord's kingdom into celestial and spiritual, 10,669 end. PLUMMET OR Plumbline [perpendiculum']. See Line. PNEUMA. See Soul. POISON [venenum']. The ancients called those who reasoned against faith serpents; and their reasonings the poison of serpents, sh, 195. Poison denotes hypocrisy or deceit, and poisonous serpents the deceitful themselves, sh. 9013. Deceit is like a poison, which pene- trates to the interiors, and destroys the all of faith and charity, even Remains, 9014 ; evil generally, compared to poison, 2438 ; the poi- sonous sphere of the antediluvians described, 1512. The malignity of the Amalekites, or genii so called, described ; that it resembles a subtle and most deadly poison, 8625 end; farther on this subject, and that the sphere of such really is spiritual poison, and themselves serpents, 9013. Concerning the hell of those who commit murder by poison, 816, 817. See Uell (3). 906 POO POLL AND Shave, to, [tondere, radere]. See Hair. POLLUTION, in the history of Dinah and Sheckhem, denotes conjunction not legitimate, 4433, 4439, 4460. Dinah regarded by her brothers as one polluted, as a harlot, denotes the truth of faith defiled, and finally the affection of falses, 4504, 4522. Pollute the house and fill the courts with the slain (Ezek. ix. 7), denotes the profanation of goods and truths, 4503. Polluted, filthy, or defiled garments in which Joshua stood before the angel (Zech. iii. 4), denote truths defiled by falses from evil, 5954. A few in Sardis that have not polluted their garments, and they shall walk with me in white (Rev. iii. 4), denotes truths not defiled with falses, 5954. POLYGAMY, was permitted to the Jews, and the fathers of that nation, because they were not internal men, and the church could not be represented in their marriages, 3246, 4837. By several wives or concubines was represented the conjunction and subordination of various affections under one spiritual truth, 9002. Such connections were un- known in the ancient church, and were permitted to the Jews, and the Word written accordingly, for the sake of that nation, 10,603. POLYTHEISM. See Religion. POMEGRANATES [malogranata] of the candlestick (translated knops, Ex. XXV. 31), denote scientifics of good; its flowers (i6.) scienti- fics of truth, sh, 9552 — 9553. Pomegranates in the robe of the ephod (xxviii. 33), denote as before, scientifics, which are to be understood as doctrinals from the Word, br. ill, 9918. Golden bells were ordered to be put in the midst of the pomegranates on the fringe of the ephod, because bells signify the hearing and perception of doctrine and worship which is from the interiors of scientifics, 9922, 9923. See Priest, Cormorant. POND OR Pool [staynum]. See Lake. PONTIFF. See Pope. POOR [pauper]. By the poor and rich are meant those who are such spiritually, 2129. By the poor and others to whom good is to be done, is meant the neighbour in various degrees, estimated from good and truth, 3688. To give to the poor without discrimination of their quality, is often to give the evil the means of injuring the good ; also to regard every one as a neighbour in the same degree, is often to expose one's self to be seduced to evil, 3820. To be poor and needy [egenus]^ in the sense of the Word, is to be rich and abounding, because it means that nothing of wisdom and power is from self, but from the Lord ; such poor, in the other life, also really possess the riches of heaven and dwell there magnificently, 4459. By the doctrines of the ancient church, every form and degree of charity was taught, and also in what degree one was neighbour to another; hence the signification of the poor, the miserable, the blind, the lame, the hungry, the thirsty, the stranger, &c.; the Lord's words (Matt. xxv. 34 — 36), explained 4955, 4958. Natural truth, not spiritual, teaches that good is to be done to the poor, the widow, and the orphan; but truth which, at the same time, is spiritual, teaches who are really meant by the poor, ill. 5008. The poor denote those who know and confess in heart that all the good and truth they can have is from the Lord as a free gift, 5008. To do good to the poor is the external of the church, to do good to those who are in spiritual poverty is the internal of the church, and in doing good POR 907 regard should be had both to the internal and external, 9209. The poor denote those who are in good, but only in a small degree, because igno- rant of truth; the needy those who are in little truth, because of igno- rance, who, nevertheless, desire to be instructed; to these therefore the Gospel is preached, according to the words of the Lord (Luke vii. 22), 9209; signification ofthe needy (translated poor, Ex. xxiii. 6, 11), cited, 9260, 9275. The poor and the needy, of whom deliverance is predi- cated (Ps. XXXV. 10), denote those who are in little good and little truth respectively, and are infested by evils and falses, 9209. The poor man m the parable of Dives and Lazarus (Luke xvi. 19), denotes those withm the church who are in little good because ignorant of truth, and who desire to learn truths from those who have abundance, 9231; also those out ofthe church who have not the Word, 10,227. The poor (Ex. xxui. 3), denote those who are in few truths, and in falses, because of Ignorance; some of whom are in good and desire to be instructed, but others in evil and opposed to instruction, br. ill. 9253. The rich and poor all to bring the same offering, the rich not more and the poor not less (Ex. XXX. 15), denotes that all, whatever their faculty, are to attri- bute the all of truth from good to the Lord, 10,227. They who say they are rich and know not they are poor (or wretched, miser), and miserable, and needy, and blind, and naked (Rev. iii. 17), denotes the state of those who possess knowledges, but are not in the good of life, 10,227. The hungry, in the prophetical words of Elizabeth (Luke i. 53), arc the same as those elsewhere called poor, namely, such as are without the knowledges of good and truth, and still desire them, 10,227. How it is to be understood that heaven is for the poor and mise- rable, when yet there are in heaven both the rich and dignified, 10,227. VOVE \^pontifex\. Concerning a Roman pontiff seen by the author in the spiritual world; his imaginary inspiration when presiding in the Consistory described, 3750. See Religion. POPLAR-TREE [populus arbor], the white poplar being meant (Gen. XXX. 37), denotes the good of truth, 4013. In Hosea iv. 13, it denotes the same falsified, 4013 end. PORCH. See Temple. PORT OR HAVEN, «, [partus], denotes the station where scien- tifics terminate and commence, or where there is a conclusion of truth from scientifics, 6384. See Tribes (Zebulon). PORTENTS OR SIGNS [portenta], denote the means of power, 7030. See Miracles. PORTION, in the sense of spoil, given to the men who went with Abram (Gen. xiv. 24), denotes the infernal spirits who are given into the power of angels, 1753, 1755. Is there now any portion and inhe- ritance for us in our father's house, said by Rachel and Leah (chap. xxxi. 14), denotes the first state of separation, or conjunction ceasing with the good represented by Laban, 4097. Jacob said to buy a portion of a field at Shalem (chap, xxxiii. 19), denotes the appropriation of good from interior truth, 4397. Portions of food sent to his bre- thren by Joseph, and the portion of Benjamin multipled (chap, xliii. 34, translated mess), denotes the merciful application of good to every one, and the great abundance or superiority of good imparted to the medium, or interior, 5706—5707. One portion more given to Joseph than to his brethren, which Jacob said he took out of the hand of the 908 POT POW 909 li Amorite (chap, xlviii. 21), denotes what is superior or essential in the church after victory over evil, G305 — 6306. The breast of the wave- offering to be the portion of Moses (Ex. xix. 26), denotes the commu- nication of divine truth in the Lord's spiritual kingdom, 10,090. POSSESS, to [possiderej. To possess is predicated of celestial good; to inhabit or dwell of spiritual good, sh. 2712. To possess by hereditary right is predicated when good or the celestial is treated of; to inherit, when the subject is truth or the spiritual, 2658; further sh. 9338. To inherit or possess when predicated of man is to receive the life of the Lord; hence, a possession denotes a station of the spiritual life, 2658, 6103. Cattle and possessions (Ezek. xxxviii. 13) denote truths by which good is acquired, and such good itself, 6049 end. The land of Canaan called a possession, and an eternal possession, denotes the Lord's kingdom, given to those who are in love and faith, 2028, 2029; sh. 2658, 6233. To give possession has reference to good, and to have the good of the land involves the idea of possession, 5942. Jehovah called Possessor of the heavens and the earths (Gen. xiv. 19, 22), denotes the conjunction of the internal and external man, which is effected by good, 1733, 1746. Inheritance and possession, in the sense which treats of the Lord, are predicated of his human essence, because as to the divine he was the possessor of the universe, and of the celestial kingdom from eternity, 1817. The sons of Jacob invited by Sheckhem and Hamor to dwell in their land, and trade therein, and get possessions (Gen. xxxiv. 10) denotes oneness with the ancient church, entrance into its knowledges, and community in the same good, 4451—4453. The Israelites are called the possession of the Lord (translated the purchase, Ex. xv. 16), because they represented the redeemed and saved, who are in good and truth, 8323. See Heir, to Inhabit. POSSESSED, to be. See Obsession (6212). POST-DILUVIANS. See Nations (2, 3, 4, 5). POSTERIORS, or Hinder Parts [posteriora], denote the ex- teriors, and they who see the exteriors of the word without the interiors see nothing of the divine, 3416. The hinder part of the tabernacle over which the curtain was to hang (Ex. xxvi. 12) denotes the ulti- mate of heaven and its proceeding, 9628. To see the hinder parts and not the faces of Jehovah, is to see the externals of the word, of the church, and of worship, and not the internals, ill. by the people as they stood looking after Moses when he entered into the tent (Ex. xxxiii. 8), 10,550, 10,551; and by the words of Jehovah when Moses desired to see him (ver. 23), 10,584, They see the back parts of Jehovah who believe and adore the Word in externals; but they who deny the Word, do not so much as see his back parts, but are turned away from him, 10,584; compare 3416 cited above. POSTS. See Doors, 7847, 8989. POT [olio]. Where the flesh pot of Egypt is mentioned (Ex. xvi. 3), pot denotes the corporeal or natural part of man; flesh the evil thereof; in a more universal sense, the man, the people, or the city, of which good or evil is predicated, sh. 8408. The pots like the other vessels of the altar were made of brass (chap, xxxviii. 3), because they signify the recipients and containing vessels of good, and natural good is denoted by brass, 8408. A pot for holy use, denotes doctrine, be- Muse doc trme contains the good and truth of the church, 8408- and by the boding of flesh is meant the preparation of good, namely for the use of hfe. 10.105.

By power attributed to the Lord is meant as to the divine natural, 6425. By the divine power of the Lord 910 POW is meant divine truth proceeding from him, predicated of the divine rational and the divine natural, 6947—6948, 6954, 7011. The all of power is contained in divine truth, insomuch that it is power itselt, nay, the veriest essential of all things, ill. 8200, 9327, 10,182; hence, omnipotence is predicated of divine truth, 9410; and the angels are called powers or powerful ones from its reception, 9327, 9410, 9639, 10,182 cited below (7). By divine truth to which power is attributed is to be understood divine truth conjoined to divine good, especially in ultimates, 9498—9500, 10,019. All power is the Lord's, and neither angel, spirit, or man can have any other, 10,019. The divine power of the Lord, is the power of saving the human race, and this is etfected by subjugating and removing the hells, and reducing the heavens to order, ilL and sh. 10,019, 10,152, 10,239. The Lord acquired to himself power over the hells and the heavens to eternity, by making the human divine, 10,152, 10,182; by which is to be understood, especially, divine truth, 10,182; passages cited 10,367. See Lord (62)- ,1 11 2. That Power is predicated of Truth from Goody and hence, like- wise, the hand, the arms, and the shoulders by which power is signified, 3091, 9327; passages cited, 10,019. Truth from good is the power by which the interior arranges all things into order in the exterior, 4015. All who are in the truth of faith from good are in power from the Lord, and this in the degree that they attribute all power to him, and none to themselves, 4932. Truth has no power except from good, but its power from good is incredibly great, ill 6344 ; ill. by an example, 6423, 8200. Power in the spiritual sense, is to be understood as effec- tive against infernal spirits, which can only be by truths, 8304. AH power in the spiritual worid is from truths proceeding from good, thus from the Lord; whence it follows that falses have no power at all, ill. 9327; the latter especially, 10,481. The faculty or power itself is good, but it comes into actuality or is determined by truth, sh. 9643. The power of truth from good is so exceeding great, that if man were inspired by divine truth from the Lord, he would have the strength of Samson, ill. 10,182. Truth is in its power from good, in the ultimates or extremes, as denoted by the horns of the altar, the correspondence of which is similar to that of the arms and hands of man, 10,136. 3. Power ascribed to Man. Man attributes power to himself, though the truth is, that all power to resist evil and the false is from the Lord alone, 1661. By the power of any one, and by the hand which corresponds to power, is be understood the man himself, 9133. See Man (18), Hand (1), especially 4933, 9133,9249, 10,019, 10,023, 10,241. „ , 4. Power of Angels and Good Spirits. The angels are called powers or powerful ones, with especial reference to the truth of faith from good, such in the Grand Man also, correspond to the hands, arms, and shoulders, 4932, 6344. The power of the angels is such that even one can put to flight myriads of infernal spirits, 5428, 6345, 6677, 10,182. Angelic power is not of the same kind as power exercised in dominating over others in the worid, and it is greater in the degree it is less attri- buted to self, 5428. The celestial angels were in power before the Lord's advent, and their power is still great but only so far as they are in the divine human by love to the Lord, 6371. The celestial angels POW 911 were in power by truth from good, but when man had so far removed himself from good this power was insufficient for his salvation and was therefore assumed by the Lord, 6372-—6373. The angels are powerful against infernal spirits, because in good, and in all good the Lord him- self is present, but not in truth without good, 66/7. There are some in the other life possessed of such power from truth, that they can pass safely through the hells, going from one hell to another without danger, 6423, 8200. ^ 5. That there are the Rich and Powerful in Heaven, as well as the poor, 1877. 6. The Power of Evil Spirits. Evil spirits are deprived of their power when the man with whom they are is confirmed in good and truth, 1695. Evil spirits when deprived of their power, still think themselves all-powerful, and imagine they contribute to the government of the universe by the Lord, 1749. Infernal spirits imagine they have power to sustain a conflict with the divine, but the least manifestation of divine power is sufficient to subjugate myriads of them, 8626; the same thing affirmed of evils and falses from hell, 10,481. That there are infernal spirits who exercise magical power by truth from the divine. 8200. See Magic (6). or/ 7. Powerful or Mighty [potens'], is predicated of faith in both senses, sh. 1 1 79. The word by which mighty or powerful one is ex- pressed in the original, is predicated of those who are in truth from good, and in the opposite sense of those who are in the false from evil, 8315. Angels are called powers, or powerful ones, from divine truth, in which is omnipotence from the Lord, 9327, 9410, 9639, 10,183. See Mighty. 8. Power Represented in the Word. Power of thinking the false denoted by all the food of Sodom and Gomorrah, Gen. xiv. 11, 1695. Power of submission as to scientifics, denoted by Rebecca letting her pitcher down upon her hand, chap. xxiv. 18, 3091. The Lord's own power in the supreme sense, or the labour and study of man in the respective sense, denoted by one serving, chap. xxx. 29; xxxi. 6, 3975, 4075. The Lord by his own power, when he made the human divine, denoted in the supreme sense, by Joseph alone in the house, chap. xxxix. 12, 5005. The Lord's own power in the supreme sense, or the power of interior truth as to arrangement, in the respective sense, denoted by Jacob peehng the sticks, chap. xxx. 37, 4015. Power first manifested by truth, denoted by Reuben called the beginning of my strength, chap. xlix. 3, and parallel passages, 6344. Glory predicated of the truth of faith, and power of the good of charity, denoted by excelling in eminence and excelling in valour, ver. 3, 6345. The power of the Lord's celestial kingdom before his advent, denoted by the sceptre which should not depart from Judah, ver. 10, 6371. The power of doctrine or truth combating, denoted by the bow of Joseph, &c., ver. 24, 6423, 6424. The power of the Lord's divine human, as to the rational and as to the natural respectively, denoted by the hand, and the rod in the hand, of Moses, Ex. iv. 2, 6947. The flowing of power from the divine natural into the sensual, denoted by the rod cast upon the ground, when it became a serpent, 6948. Power from the divine by which the sensual is elevated, denoted by the serpent becom- ing a rod again in the hand of Moses, ver. 4, 6954. Power from divine VOL. II. ^ 912 PRE order which the magicians of Egypt abused, and that power taken from them, denoted by their rods, which were swallowed up by the rod of Moses, chap. vii. 12, 7298, 7299. Power from falses, by which the spiritual church is infested, denoted by the rod of Aaron stretched over the waters of Egypt, verses 19—25, 7316, 7322, 7330; continued in Hand (p. 302), Moses (12). Divine power, or the Lord's omnipo- tence, denoted by the right hand of Jehovah, Ex. xv. 6, 8281. Dif- ference of power or faculty for receiving and appropriating the good of truth, denoted by the greater or less number of the family for whom the manna was collected, chap. xvi. 18, 8472. Power from the hea- venly marriage predicated of good and truth, denoted by staves or bars of Shittim-wood for the tabernacle, chap. xxv. 13, 9496. The power of the divine sphere (viz., of divine truth conjoined to divine good), denoted by the staves put in the rings, ver. 15, 9498, 9500. The sustaining power of truth, denoted by sockets or bases of silver for the boards of the tabernacle, chap. xxvi. 21, 9643. Inauguration to repre- sent the power of divine truth from divine good, denoted by filling the hand of Aaron and the hand of his sons (consecrating them), chap, xxix. 9, 10,019. The power of truth derived from the good of love in ultimates, denoted by the horns of the altar, chap. xxx. 2, 3, 10,182, 10,186. Power in both senses, viz., of the truth against the false, and of the false against truth, denoted by horns in numerous other pas- sages, 10,182. The power of divine truth, denoted by the voice of Jehovah upon the waters, Ps. xxix., 10,182. The power of faith in the Lord, denoted by the keys given to Peter, by the keys of hell and of death, and by the key of the house of David, 8304, 9410, 10,182. 9. Power named in the Word, Nimrod called a powerful one in the earth, powerful in hunting (Gen. x. 8, 9), denotes the prevalence of the religious persuasion there treated of, 1177, 1178. The hands of the powerful one of Jacob (chap. xlix. 24), denotes the omnipotence of the Lord's divine human, 6425. The powerful ones of Moab (Ex. xv. 1 5), denotes those who are in the life of the false from the love of self, 8315. The powers of the heavens shall be shaken (Matt. xxiv. 29), denotes the state of the church when the influx of good and truth is no longer received, 4060. The Son of Man in the clouds of the heavens with power and much glory (ver. 30), denotes divine truth in the Word, clouds having respect to the literal sense, power to good therein, and glory to truth, 4060. PRAYER [oratio']. See Worship. PR/EVIDENCE. See Providence. PREACH, to [pradicare']. To be preached in the series of the internal sense (Matt. xxiv. 14), is to be made known (the sense of which is more universal), 3488. The preaching of false doctrine within the church, is denoted by false prophets (ib. ver. 14), and derivative falses, by those they seduce, 3488. Preachings are denoted by prophe- cyings, and by prophetic dreams; hence, the two dreams of Joseph, which treat in a summary concerning the Lord's divine human, or the reception of divine truth in such a church as his brothers represented, 4682. Preachings [preedicationes] in the ancient times were from dreams and visions, and from open discourse with angels, by all which means divine truths were manifested, 4682. How preachers still dis- course in the pulpit of angels and spirits, good and evil, &c., 5979. PRE 913 PREACHERS [priBdicatores]. Some mentioned by the author who were famed for their eloquence and assumed devotion, but in the other life manifested their hatred to the Lord, and persecuted the faith- ful, 724; the quality of such further described, 9366, 10,286, 10,309. One in particular, who was well known as a pathetic writer and preacher, fully described, 10,735—10,736, 10,752—10,757. That their dis- course is inspired by infernal spirits, 10,309; see also 4311. PRECEPTS [prtBcepta], All things of love by which man can be conjoined with the Lord, thus all the truths of faith, are called pre- cepts, 1038, 1298. All things of divine order are called precepts or commands, for divine order itself is a perpetual precept, 2634. Pre- cepts signify the internal of the Word, statutes its external, and laws the whole specifically, 3382, 8362. To hearken to the precepts of the Word, denotes obedience, thus a life according to the goods of faith, 8362, compare 8881. Precepts or commandments, are distinguished from statutes and judgments by their relation to the life, sh. 8972, 9282, 9417. Man lives according to the precepts of faith before regeneration, and according to the precepts of charity after, 8013. The precepts of doctrine received by those who are in spiritual good form a plane into which heaven operates, 5032. Precepts, statutes, and judgments, are called in one complex, laws; and the particular laws are called precepts ; thus law denotes truth in general, and precept truth in particular, 9417. The commands and precepts which are to be observed and done are such as the doctrine of charity and faith teaches, 10,645 end ; and that these are all comprised in love to God and love to the neigh- bour, 3773. In general, precepts denote the eternal truths themselves, and not their temporary forms, 10,637. See Decalogue, Law, Moses (21), Statutes, Judgments. PRECIOUS [pretiosvm]. Precious things given by the servant of Isaac to Laban and to the mother of Rebecca (Gen. xxiv. 53), denote spiritual things, which are here the truths of good, 3166. Precious things (as in Deut. xxxiii. 13—16), denote various kinds of spiritual things, for in this expression are included precious stones, pearls, balsams, aromatics, and the like, 3166. By the precious things of heaven (ibid.) the dew is meant, which denotes the truth of peace, ill. and sh. 3579. The truths of the internal sense of the Word are most precious to angels, notwithstanding they are liffhtly esteemed by many, 2540,2551,2574. o .^ J J PRECIOUS STONES [lapides pretiosi], signify and represent the truths of faith derived from love, 114. Stones in general denote truths; precious stones, truths which are pellucid from good, 3858, 9863. By the lucidity and colour of precious stones, the distinct quality of truths is represented, 3858, 9865; for there is but one good, from which all the variety of truths is derived, 9863; compare 9476. Precious stones of all kinds denote divine truths translucent in the ultimate of order, as in the natural sense of the Word, 9407. The precious stones in the breastplate denote the truths of the church, or divine truths from divine good, represented in one complex, ill. and sh. 9863, 9865. The order m which the stones of the breastplate were arranged, denotes the order of goods, and truths in heaven, 9868, 9873. Three stones in every row was to represent the oneness of a trine, grounded in the divine Trinity, 9866. The two rows on the right of the breastplate, represented the t2 M 914 PRE Lord's celestial kingdom, internal and external respectively; the two rows on the left, his spiritual kingdom, internal and external, 9866; the general order of goods and truths represented by all the four rows br. ex. 9864, 9868, 9873. The stones of the breastplate (called stones of fillings), denote spiritual goods, or the goods of faith; those of the ephod (onyx stones), truths of faith, 9476, 3858. Answers obtained from the breastplate were given by an audible voice attending the miraculous lights and changing colours which appeared in the precious stones, caused by the light of heaven; hence, the words Urim and Thummim, which denote Lights and Perfections, 3862, 9905. See Breastplate, Ephod, Ornament, and the author's work entitled Apocalypse Revealed, 915. Ruby [rubinus]. The stones of the first row in the breastplate, the rubv, topaz, and carbuncle, signify the celestial love of good, on ac- count of their red, flaming colour, 9865, 9868. Ruby, in the original, is derived from a word which signifies ruddiness, and denotes, the inter- nal good of the inmost heaven, 9865. [The original (aodemj, occurs Exod. xxviii. 17; xxxix. 10, and Ezek. xxviii. 13; another word (peni- nim)y translated rubies in other passages, more probably means pearls. See Pearl. The sphere of divine love and wisdom, appears in the celestial kingdom red, like a ruby. Ap. Rev. 232]. See Colours (purple). Topaz [topasius]. The origin of the Hebrew name is unknown, but it probably signified red or flame colour, 9865. [According to Jose- phus and the Septuagint iht pitdah, which is the Hebrew name of this stone, was either green or fine golden yellow; a ruddy yellow might be called the colour of flame, and would have a similar signification to gold. The Indian topaz is by some conjectured to be the same as the chryso- lite of Rev. xxi. 20; respecting which, see Ap. Rev. 915 and compare Gold. Leonardus remarks that topasion, in the Arabic tongue, is the same as search]. Carbuncle [carbunculus]. The original is derived from a word which signifies effiilgence like that of fire, 9865. [Uier&Wy, fashing. The bedolah or bdeUium of Genesis ii. 12, is translated anthraka a car- buncle, by the Seventy, as is the Hebrew nophek (chrysoprasusj ; but see Bdellium]. Chrysoprasus [Hebrew, nophekl. The stones of the second row of the breastplate, the chrysoprasus, sapphire, and diamond, take their signification from blue derived from red, and denote the celestial love of truth, 9868, or the external good of the celestial kingdom, 9873. See Colours (Hyacinth). The colour of this stone cannot be ascertained from the original, but its signification is shewn by the connection in which it is mentioned in the Word, 9868. [The only places in which it occurs are Exod. xxviii. 18, and xxxix. 11; Ezek. xxvii. 16, and xxviii. 13, where the Authorized Version has emerald. In the version of the Seventy it is rendered by anthraka on the supposition that it resembled a burning coal, and in the Vulgate by carbunculus. It is supposed by some that the chalcedony is meant, which is of various colours, ranging from a dull white to opaque red]. Sapphire [sapphirus^ The colour of this stone is cerulean or sky blue; it signifies what is translucid from interior truths, which are the truths of celestial love, 9868. In a common or general sense it denotes f PRE 915 the external of the celestial kingdom (which is the good of mutual love, 6435), and involves in itself the signification of the other stones of this row, sh. 9873. Sapphire work denotes what is translucid from internal truth, thus the literal sense of the Word in which the internal sense is apperceived, 9407; or divine truths translucent in the ultimate of order, 9407. Diamond [adamas']. This stone was the last in the two rows denoting the celestial kingdom ; it signifies the truth of celestial love, on account of its brilliancy and almost bluish hue, 9868. A light spark- ling like diamonds described, 1526. [Comparison of the intellect with the diamond, cut and polished, T. C. R., 110. The Word represented by precious stones, especially the ruby and diamond, ibid. 2 1 6, with which compare 34, 642]. Azure-Stone, or Lapis Lazuli [cyaneus]. The stones of the breastj)late, the lazul, the agate, and the amethyst, take their significa- tion from blue derived from white, and denote the spiritual love of good, or the internal good of the spiritual kingdom, 9870, where the word has been improperly translated ligure. [The sphere of divine love and wisdom appears in the spiritual kingdom of a blue or azure colour like the cyaneus, Ap. Rev., 232. The original word, leshem, only occurs twice, Exod. xxviii. 19, and xxxix. 12, and is rendered hyacinth or jacinth by Castellius, in opposition to most of the learned. See blue, and hyacinth, in Colours]. Agate [achates]. It is not known what species of stone is meant by this word in the original, 9870. The agate is a semi-pellucid stone, of which there are many distinct kinds. The Indian achates is varied with colours and veins, which often form representations as of trees, clouds, &c.] Amethyst [amethystus], briefly mentioned, as a stone of a blue colour, 9870. Beryl [tharschisch]. The stones composing the fourth row of the breastplate, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, approach to a kind of whiteness derived from blue; they signify the spiritual love of truth, 9872; or the external good of the spiritual kingdom, 9873. This sig- nification belongs to the beryl in particular, sh. 9872. The beryl is a sparkling, precious stone, which denotes the good of charity and faith, 6135; compare 9476. See white, blue, green, &c., in Colours. Onyx [schoham]. Onyx stones denote spiritual truths, or the truths of faith grounded in love, 9476, 9872. The two onyx stones on the shoulders of the ephod have a similar signification to the precious stones in the breastplate, but in a less degree, 3858. The names of the children of Israel engraved on the onyx stones, and carried on the shoulders of Aaron, denote the perpetual preservation of good and truth, 9836, 9848, 9849. Onyx stones denote truths of faith derived from love, and the names engraved on them (being those of the children of Israel), the interior memory, 9841, 9842. In a common or general sense, the onyx (in the breastplate) denotes the external of the spiritual kingdom, and involves the signification of all the other stones of- the row to which it belongs, sh. 9873. [The alabaster of Scripture is sup- posed to be a species of onyx] . Jasper [jaspis], the last stone in the breastplate, denotes the truth of faith, the spiritual love of truth, the external good of the spiritual 916 PRE PRE 917 t kingdom, 8988, 9872, but especially 9873. The first stone in the breastplate was the ruby, which is red, and denotes the good of love ; the last was the jasper, which is white, and denotes the truth of faith ; both these stones were pellucid, 9873. [By a jasper stone, is denoted the divine truth of the Word in its literal sense, translucent from divine truth in its spiritual sense, Ap. Rev., 897, 932. See Crystal.] Sardine, Sardonyx. By jasper and sardine, or sardius (Rev. iv. 2), as by other precious stones in the Word, is signified divine truth, 5313. [The author remarks, Ap, Rev,, 231, that the sardine is a red stone; it is probably the ruby, which see above. The sardonyx is supposed to derive its name from participating in the qualities of the sardiue stone and the onyx; see under each name above, and Ap. Rev,, 915.] Emerald [smaraffdus]. Briefly mentioned, that the sphere of divine love and wisdom, in the natural kingdom of heaven, appears green like an emerald, Ap, Rev. 232. See Colours (green). PREDESTINATION, FATE. There is no such thing as a pre- destined or fated course of action, but man is free, and the providence of the Lord does not of necessity follow the order which man proposes to himself; ill. by the building of a house, when the architect alone knows the design, and the materials are brought together in a very different order from that which he intends them to assume, 6487. Fur- ther, the author mentions a discourse he had with spirits about predes- tination, when he was told from heaven that no one is predestined to hell, but all to eternal life, 6488. See Providence. PREDICTIONS, concerning the future, even when delivered by the evil, are from the divine, ill. and sh. 3698. See Inspiration (3), Magic (1). PREFECTS OR OFFICERS. See Governor. PREMIUM. See Reward. PREPARATION. Man has to be prepared before he can be regenerated, namely, by instruction in truths and goods; ill. by pas- sages in the history of Noah, 711. The preparation and illustration of the natural man, must precede conjunction with the rational; ill. by passages in the history of Isaac and Rebecca, 3138. The natural man is prepared to receive truths and goods by temptations; ill. by forty days' mourning for Israel, 6505. Preparation or initiation into the state of receiving good and truth is predicated because man must be guarded from the influx of evils and falses; ill, by the circumstances before the paschal supper was eaten, 7849, 7939. Man is prepared for heaven by temptations, whereby truths and goods are confirmed; ill. by the return of the Israelites towards the Red Sea, because they represented a state not prepared, 8129. The preparation for heaven, or the state of good corresponding to heaven, is by truth; ill. by the journeyings of the Israelites in the desert for forty years before they were introduced into Canaan, 8539. A particular preparation is neces- sary in order to the revelation of truth ; ill. by the arrival of the people at Sinai, and the circumstances previous to the delivery of the Law, 8748, 8786, 8790—8791, 8805, 8811. The truths of doctrine received in illustration from the Lord are necessary in order to the preparation of good for the use of life; ill. by the flesh of the sacrifices ordered to be cooked in the holy place, 10,105. The generation and formation of the good of love is by truths from the Word, first external, afterwards more and more interior; ill, by the preparation of the oil of anointing, 10,266. PREPARE, to, when it refers to goods appropriated, denotes their disposition or arrangement into order; ill. by the manna prepared on the sixth day, 8422. To prepare, when heaven is treated of (Matt. XXV. 34; Mark x. 40 ; John xiv. 2, 3), denotes that it is given out of pure mercy to those who are in the good of life and of faith ; this, be- cause to prepare heaven is to prepare man for heaven, 9305. The way is prepared for angels, by spirits who are sent before; hence, the sense in which this expression concerning John the Baptist is to be under- stood, 8028. The sanctuary, O Lord, thy hands have prepared (Ex. XV. 1 7), denotes heaven where those are who are in the truth of faith, ill. 8330. PRESENCE. 1. The Presence of the Lord. The Lord is so far present with man as he is principled in love to him, and charity towards the neighbour, 904, 905, 981, ill, 1096, 1036, 1038, 1050, 1051, 1 153; ill, by the signification of a covenant as denoting his presence by reason of conjunction with the regenerate, 665, sh. 666, 1023, 1032, i7/. and sh, 1038, 1059, 1616, 1864, 1996, 2003, 2021; ill, 2064, 6804, 7195. See Covenant, Conjunction, but particularly Lord (11). What is meant by his being representatively present, 431 1, 9320 end, 9380, 9480. See Representation. Concerning his presence by an intermediate, 9415; see Moses (23). 2. The Presence of the Lord in Heaven, that it is by influx, ill, and passages cited 9682, 10,153. That it was represented by the priest- hood of Aaron and his sons, 9946, 10,152. That it is by light and heat which proceeds from him as the sun of heaven, fills heaven, and in fact, makes heaven, 10,106. See Lord (17), Heaven (8), Influx (2, 3), Life (2), Light (3). 3. The Presence of the Lord, or of Truth Divine with the Evil, vari- ously t7^. 7463, 7721, 7989. That the presence of the Lord delivers those who are in good from damnation, but brings those who are in evil into damnation, 7681, 7710, 7926, 7989, 8017, 8137, 8214, 8226, 8227, 8264 end, 8265, 8286, 8305, 8306. See Lord (11, 60), Moses (12), Hand (p. 302). 4. The Presence of Spirits and Angels. Spirits are present and can speak with another the instant they are thought of, whatever the dis- tance, 1274, 5229, 6893 7498. Angels are present with man when the Word is read, because they are in the internal sense while naan is in the external, 5329. Presence and knowledge of one another in the other life is caused by similarity of state, absence by dissimilarity, 6806 end. Not only friends but enemies become present to one an- other when thought of in the other life, and hence occasion sufl'ering, 6893. They who are in evil and the false, cannot sustain the presence of those who are in truth and good, 7964. See Place (1). PRESENT [munus]. See Gift, Offering. PRESENT TIME, with the angels, comprehends at once the past and the future, because the infinite and the eternal of the Lord is contained in it, br. ill, 1382. See Heaven (10). . PRESERVATION [praservatio]. Preservation from the conta- gion of evil, denoted by the physicians who were commanded to embalm Jacob, and by his embalmment, 6502t-6504, 6596; see also next article, 10,232. 918 PRI PRI 919 PRESERVATION [conservatio]. The preservation of truth ad- joined to good in the interiors of the mind, denoted by food stored up in Egypt, 5340. The perpetual preservation of truth and good denoted by the names of the sons of Israel engraven upon onyx stones, and placed upon the shoulders of the Ephod, 9836, 9850, 9855 end. The preservation of all goods and truths, of heaven, and of all therein, according to the tfiree distinct degrees, natural, spiritual, and celestial, represented by the manner of fastening the breastplate upon the Ephod, 989 1 . The preservation of the church, or of goods and truths received from the Lord in man, is predicated in the internal sense when the expressions in the letter treat of evils removed, br, ill, 10,232. PRESTIGE. See Providence. PRETENCE [simulatio]. See Deceit, Simulation. PREVARICATION, See Evil (1), 9156. PREY. See Spoil. PRICE OF REDEMPTION, the [pretium RedemptioniaX is pre- dicated of truth received by man; also of the Lord's merit and justice, who by his own power, united the human to the divine, and the divine to the human in himself, and thus saved the human race, 2959 ; but particularly, 2966. PRIDE [auperbia]. See Love (7, 11), 86/8. PRIEST, VlME^TYiOOJ} [Sacerdos, Sacerdotium\ 1. Significa- tion of the Kingship and Priesthood distinguished. The Lord, as king, governs all from divine truth; as priest, from divine good ; and it was this government of truth and dominion of good that was represented by kings and priests in the Jewish Church, 1728, further ill 2015 near the end, 36/0, 3858, 3969, 6148, 8625, ill, and sh. 9809. A priest, and the priestly office, denotes the holy [principle] of love, or holy good, in other words, the divine celestial; but a king, and the kingly office, respectively, the divine spiritual, 1728; see below, 8625. Au the laws by which the Lord governs the universe in his character of priest are goods, for truths which are not ruled by good condemn all to hell, 2015. All kings and priests represent the Lord (according to the foregoing distinction of the kingly and priestly office), but so far as they attribute to themselves what is holy in their office, so far they are spiritual thieves ; and so far as they act against good and truth, so far they cease to represent the holy principle of the kingship and priesthood, and represent the opposite, 5670; see also 4311, cited below (11). Priests represented the Lord as to divine good, and hence they denote goods in man ; kings in like manner represented the Lord as to divine truth, and they denote truths in man, sh. 6148. A priest denotes the good of love; daughters of a priest, the church from that good, ^77b. Kingship and priesthood attributed to the Lord, or the divine celestial and divine spiritual, are involved in the name Jesus Christ, Jesus having respect to divine good, and Christ to divine truth, 8625. The office of the priest represented the Lord as to the whole work of salvation, and a priest the divine good of divine love from which is salvation, lY/. and «A. 9809, 9989, 10,152, 10,279. Briefly, that the priesthood has reference to celestial or divine good, 1097. 3969. ^ 2. A Kingdom of Priests, denotes spiritual good, which is the good of truth, ill, S770, See Good (1 1). 3. The Symbol of Melchizedek ; the Priesthood in Ancient Times, Melchizedek was at once king and priest because divine truth in the Lord is conjoined with divine good; hence, the appointment of kings was contrary to divine order, sh. 2015 ; more fully 6148. In the re- presentative church, the office of priest and judge were also conjoined in one person, and the Lord is called a judge in both these senses, be- cause he cannot act from truth separate from good, ill. 2258 ; see below, 8770. Melchizedek, in the original tongue, means King of Jus- tice, with reference to the conjunction of good and truth, and he offered bread and wine to Abram, because these, in the ancient church, were symbols of the good of love and truth of faith, 6148. The Lord is called " a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek," because divine good and divine truth proceed from him as one, 6148; and be- cause he was made Justice, 9809. In the representative church instituted among the posterity of Jacob there was first the kingdom of judges, afterwards the kingdom of priests, and lastly the kingdom of kings; by the kingdom of judges was represented divine truth from divine good ; by the kingdom of priests (who were at the same time judges), divine good with its proceeding divine truth; and by the kingdom of kings, divine truth without divine good, 8770; further ill. 9806. 4. The Priest in Ancient Times called a Father. Divine good and divine truth are distinguished as father and son; hence priests were called fathers, and this even by kings, because kings represented truth, sh 3704. 5. Aaron and the Levites in the Priesthood. Aaron represented the Lord as to the priesthood or as to divine love; and the Levites were given to him in place of all the first-born, because Levi represented the Lord as to love, br. sh. 3325; where the birth of Levi is recorded, 3875. As Aaron represented the divine priesthood of the Lord, his clothing also represented divine celestial and divine spiritual things; the breastplate especially all things of faith and love, 3858, 4677. All that was commanded concerning the high priest and the Levites had respect to divine good. 1. The high priest alone entered into the holy of holies. 2. All that was appointed for the priests was called holy. 3. They had no inheritance in the land, but Jehovah called himself their inheritance. 4. The Levites were given to Jehovah in place of the first-born, and Jehovah gave them to Aaron. 5. The high priest and the Levites occupied the midst of the camp. 6. No one of the seed of Aaron, in whom was any blemish, was allowed to offer burnt-offerings or sacrifices; in all these and many similar appointments the divine good of the Lord was represented, and, in the respective sense, the good of love and charity ; but the holy garments of Aaron represented divine truth, 6148; see below, 9809. The priesthood of Aaron and his sons represented the Lord as to the divine celestial, that is, divine good in heaven; but their garments represented the divine spiritual, or truth proceeding from good, br. 9804 ; see below, 9946. Aaron was appointed to the priestly office because he was the brother of Moses, and the fra- ternal conjunction of divine truth with divine good in heaven could thus be represented; understand divine truth by Moses as lawgiver, and divine good by Aaron as priest, 9806. All the appointments of divine worship connected with the priesthood had reference to the work of sal- vation by the good of love from the Lord ; such is the signification of 920 PRI all the burnt-ofiPerings and sacrifices, the shew-bread, the incense, and the appointment of the Levites in place of all the firstborn, 9809. The priesthood of Aaron represented divine good in heaven ; that of his sons, divine truth from divine good there; this because divine good and divine truth as they are in themselves above heaven cannot be repre- sented, 9946, 9950. The priests and their garments, Aaron and his sons, were anointed with oil, because the priesthood represented the Lord as to the whole work of salvation, and all inauguration into the holy things of heaven and the church is by the good o( love, fulli/ ah. 9954, 10,268 and following passages. See Oil (2). The priesthood of Aaron, of his sons, and of the Levites, represented the Lord as to the work of salvation in successive order, celestial, spiritual, and natu- ral, corresponding to the three heavens, 10,017, br. 10,279. See Aaron (in Supplement) ; and see Tribes (Levi). 6. Passages before the Appointment of Aaron to the Priesthood, Bread and wine brought forth by Melchizedek king of Shalem, called a priest to God Most High (Gen. xiv. 18), denotes the state of peace and of recreation from celestial love after temptations, 1724 — 1729. Ase- nath, daughter of Potipherah priest of On, given to Joseph (chap. xli. 45), denotes the quality of the marriage of truth with good and of good with truth, 5330 — 5333. Two sons (Manasseh and Ephraim), which the daughter of the priest bare to him (ver. 50), denotes the new will and the new understanding from that marriage, 5350 — 5354. The ground of the priesthood alone not bought up for Pharaoh (chap, xlvii. 22, 26), denotes that the faculty of receiving good is immediately from the Lord, 6148, 6167; see below (Lev. xxv. 34). The priest of Midian and his seven daughters, in the history of Moses (Exod. ii. 16), denotes the good of love and the church as to good among the simple who receive the Word in externals, 6775. The flock of Jethro, priest of Midian, kept by Moses (chap. iii. 1), denotes the instruction of those who are in the truth of simple good by law from the divine, 6827. Jethro the priest of Midian advising Moses after the deliverance of the Israelites (chap, xviii.), denotes divine good under which the arrange- ment of truths in the order of the spiritual life is effected, 8641, 8643, 8701 — 8728, 8731. The promise at Mount Sinai, Ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation, denotes the spiritual kingdom in two classes, those who are in good primarily, and those who are in good from truth, 8770—8771. The priests of the Israelites (for such there were, it appears, before Aaron and the Levites were appointed,) commanded to sanctify themselves, and not to pass the bounds that were set round the mountain (chap. xix. 22, 24), denotes the state of those who are in spiritual good, separated by the veiling of their inte- riors from those who are in celestial good, 8832, 8842. The call of Aaron to the priesthood (chap, xxviii. 1), denotes the divine celestial, or divine good in heaven, now to be represented, 9804 and other passages cited above (5). 7. The Clothing and Consecration of the Priests, The command to make holy garments for Aaron, to be for glory and for beauty (Ex. xxviii. 2), denotes a representative of the spiritual kingdom adjoined to the celestial, in order to exhibit the quality of divine truth, internal and external, 9814, 9815. Such clothing to be made by the wise in heart, filled with the spirit of wisdom (ver. 3), denotes those who are in PRI 921 the celestial kigdom, because it is by influx from them that the spiritual kingdom exists, 9816, 9819. These are the vestments they shall make (meaning the ephod, the robe, and the embroidered coat, ver. 4), de- notes divine truths in their order, 9822. A breastplate first mentioned (ver. 4), denotes divine truth shining [elucens] from divine good, 9823, 10,007. An ephod (the outmost of the three garments, ver. 4), denotes divine truth in external form, in which therefore all the interiors close together, 9824, 10,006. A robe (pallium, ver. 4), denotes the middle degree of the spiritual kingdom, or divine truth in its internal form, 9825, 10,005. An embroidered coat (ver. 4), denotes divine truth in the inmost of the spiritual kingdom, thus, as derived immediately from the celestial, 9826, 9942, 10,004. A mitre (ver. 4), denotes intelli- gence and wisdom, because for the head, by which the interiors are signified, 9827, 10,008. A girdle (baltheus, ver. 4), denotes the com- mon bond which contains and firmly holds all the interiors in connec- tion, 9828. Gold first mentioned among the materials for these things (ver. 5), denotes good universally reigning throughout the whole spi- ritual kingdom, 9832. Blue next mentioned (hyacinthinum, ver. 5), denotes the heavenly love of truth, 9833. Purple also (ver. 5), denotes the heavenly love of good, 9833. Scarlet double dyed (ver. 5), denotes spiritual good, 9833. Fine linen (byssinum, ver. 5), denotes truth from a celestial origin, 9833. The ephod to be made with gold, and blue [hyacinthinum'], and purple, and scarlet, and fine-twined linen (ver. 6), denotes the external of the spiritual kingdom from the good of charity and faith, signified by all these colours in one complex, 9834. The ephod to be made with cunning work (opere excogitatoris, ver. 5), denotes that the spiritual kingdom with all its truths and goods is from the intellectual part of man, 9835. The two shoulders of the ephod conjoined, &c. (ver. 7), denotes the preservation of good and truth for ever provided for by their unition everywhere and in all ways, 9836. The girdle to be of the same kind of work and the same colours as the ephod (ver. 8), denotes the external bond [colligamentimi] from the same good of faith and charity continued outwards, 9837 — 9839. Two onyx stones, with the names of the sons of Israel engraved upon them, for the shoulders of the ephod (verses 9 — 12), denote the interior memory, truths and goods impressed therein, and their perpetual pre- servation, 9841, 9842, 9848, 9850. Sockets of gold (translated, ouches) to set the stones in, and chains of pure gold, of wreathen work, for connection with the ephod (verses 13 — 14), denote subsistence and coherence by the good of love, 9851 — 9854. The breastplate of judg- ment to be made of cunning work, like the work of the ephod (ver. 1 5), denotes divine truth from divine good manifested in ultimates, and this from the intellectual part, because still the spiritual kingdom is treated of, 9857 — 9859. Gold, and blue [hyacinthinum^, and purple, and scarlet double dyed, and fine-twined linen for making the breastplate (ver. 15), denote, as before, the good of faith and charity which form the spiritual kingdom, br. 9860. The form of the breastplate de- scribed as four-square, doubled, a span in length, a span in breadth (ver. 1 6), denotes what is just and perfect, in equal measure as to good and as to truth, 9861, 9862. Precious stones set in it, which are described in order, one stone for each of the tribes (verses 17 — 21), denote the quality and order of truths and goods which form heaven 922 PRI and the church, 9863, 9865, 9868, 9873. All the stones of the breastplate to be set in gold (ver. 20), denotes the derivation and pro- cedure of all truths and goods from one good, which is that of love to the Lord, 9874. Chains of wreathen work, of pure gold, upon the corners of the breastplate (ver. 22), denote conjunction, indissoluble, from the good of love, in extremes, 9879—9881, 9884. Two rings of gold several times mentioned for the breastplate and for the ephod (verses 23 — 27), denote the sphere of divine good by which conjunction is effected, 9882—9884, 9889, 9892. A lace of blue [hyacinthinum] to bind the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod (ver. 28), denotes the heavenly love of truth, by which all things of heaven are secured in their connection and form, 9896—9899. Aaron to bear the names in the breastplate for a memorial, &c. (ver. 29), denotes the eternal preservation of good and truth, predicated of the divine mercy, 9900 — 9904. The Urim and Thummim to be put in the breastplate (ver. 30), denotes judgment from divine truth which is resplendent in ultimates from the good of divine love, 9905. The robe [pallium] to be naade all of blue [hyacinthinum, ver. 31], denotes the internal form of divine truth in the Lord*s spiritual kingdom, existing by influx from the good of the celestial, 9912. A hole in the top of it [os capitis ejus] in its midst (ver. 32), denotes influx from the celestial into the spiritual, 9913. A binding round the hole, woven, like the hole of an habergeon or coat of mail {os loricce, ver. 32), denotes the course of influx, guarded, and this by celestial means, securing it from hurt like the influx of life from the head into the body, 9914—9916. Upon the hem or border of the robe [fimbrias, skirt, or fringe] pomegranates of blue [hyacin- thinum], and of purple, and of scarlet double-dyed (ver. 33), denotes in the extremes, where the natural is, scientifics of good from the good of charity and faith, 9918—9920. Bells of gold alternate with the pome- granates in the hem of the robe (ver. 33—34), denotes the all of doc- trine and worship from good, everywhere in the midst of the scientifics of good, 9921—9923. The bells to be so placed that the sound [voice] of Aaron may be heard when he entereth into the holy place before Jehovah, and when he cometh out (ver. 35), denotes the influx and reception of divine truth in every state of good and of truth in worship, 9926—9927. A plate of pure gold, engraved with * Holiness to Jeho- vah,' to be upon Aaron's forehead (verses 36, 38), denotes illustration from divine good of the Lord's divine human, 9930, 9932, 10,009. A blue lace [hyacinthinum] for fastening the plate to the turban (ver. 37), denotes influx into the truth of celestial love (in other words, the per- ception of the divine human in that sphere of heaven where they are in the love of good for the sake of good), 9933. The coat of fine hnen commanded to be woven (translated embroidered, ver. 39), denotes the inmost of the spiritual kingdom proceeding from the truths of celestial love, 9942. The turban to be of fine linen (ver. 39), denotes intelli- gence from divine truth, 9943. The girdle to be of needlework (ver. 39), denotes the external bond containing all things of love and faith in connection and form composed of interior scientifics, or knowledges of good and truth, 9945. All these to be clothed upon Aaron and his sons (ver. 41), denotes the state of divine good in the Lord's spiritual kingdom, and in externals thence proceeding, 9952, 9953. Linen breeches also [/emoralid] to cover the flesh of their naked- PRI 923 ness (ver. 42), denotes the external of conjugial love, lest the de- filed interiors should appear, 9959 — 9960. Aaron and his sons to be anointed, their hand to be filled (translated, consecrated), and to be sanctified or hallowed, in order to minister in the priestly office (ver. 41; and chap. xxix. 1, 9), denotes inauguration whereby the Lord is represented as to the good of love, as to the truth of faith, as to the divine human, and as to the whole work of salvation, 9954—9957, 9988, 9989, 10,019. A young bullock and two rams in the ritual of consecration (chap. xxix. 2), denote respectively the puri- fication of the natural and spiritual man, 9990, 9991; the particulars (verses 10 — 35), 10,020 — 10,120. Unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil (ver. 2), denote the purification of the celestial in the inmost, in the middle, and in the external respectively, 9992 — 9994. All these to be put in one basket (ver. 3), denotes the sensual part, because the interiors are all together in ultimates, 9996, 9997. Aaron and his sons to be washed with water when all this was prepared (ver. 4), denotes purification by the truths of faith, 10,002. Aaron to be anointed with oil, poured upon his head, having been first washed, and clothed with the holy garments (ver. 7), denotes a representative of divine good in the Lord, in the whole human, succeeding to the representation of divine truth, 10,01 1 . Note: the parti- culars concerning the holy garments for the priests repeated in chapter xxxix. are not further explained by the author, see 10,807. 8. Detached passages concerning Priests. The priest to wave the sheaf of first-fruits before Jehovah (Lev. xxiii. 9), denotes the vivifica- tion of the good of truth by life from the Lord, 9295. The field of the Levites not to be sold, but to be their eternal possession (Lev. xxv. 34), denotes good from the Lord, called the good of the church, which no man is to claim as his own, 6148 end. The rod of Aaron, put for the tribe of Levi, said to blossom and bear almonds (Num. xvii. 8), denotes that all fructification is from love, or divine good, 3858. Jehovah hath despised the king and the priest (Lam. ii. 6), denotes the good of charity destroyed, 2015. The king, the princes, the priests, and the prophets mentioned in various senses (Jer. iv. 9; ii. 26; viii. I), de- note truths and goods, and teaching from truths, 6148. Thou hast made us to our God kings and priests (Rev. i. 6; v. 10), denotes those who are in truths and goods, 2015, 6148. 9. The Office of the Priesthood called a Warfare, Because the Lord alone fights for man in temptation combats, and the priests repre- sented the Lord, their office is called a warfare (militia — Hebrew «as, translated service. Num. iv. 23, 35, 39, 43, 47), br. 1664. 10. To Minister, understood of the Priestly Office, denotes worship and evangelization, because the Word treats of the Lord alone, 9925. 1 1 . Bad Men serving as Priests, are surrounded with evil spirits even when engaged in ministrations which appear in externals holy, ill. in a description of the Jewish nation and worship, 4311; further ill. where the state of heaven infested by evil spirits is described, 6914 ; and where the Jesuits are especially mentioned, 8383. That the most ardent preachers are often inspired with a persuasive faith by the love of self and the world, but have no real faith, 9365 — 9366. See Preachers. 12. Government by Priests. Governors [prcefecti] over ecclesias- 924 PRI PRI 925 tical things are called priests; here the author gives a short series of doctrinal precepts concerning the priesthood [doctnnae fsacerdoHo] as a part of his general doctrine of charity and faith, IO'789-IO 99 The necessity of governors to preserve order in the worid br. stated , dso that uch governors ought tS be wise, God-fearing men and are to be kept in order themselvesV subordination of one to another and of all to the laws, 10,789-10,792, 10,803. Governors over the things of heaven in man, or ecclesiastical things, ^'^^ ^^"'^ PVf ^^^ /.^^^^^^^^^^^ office the priesthood; governors over things of the worid magif ates 10,793. Priests are to teach truth, and lead to the good of life; that is to say, they are to teach men according to the doctrine of tbeir church, and they are to lead them into a life conformable with such doctrine, 10 794, 10,798. Priests have no right to claim for themselves any power over the souls of men, much less the power of opening and closing heaven, 10,795. A certain dignity accrues to P^^ts becau e of the holy things which they administer, but they ought to attnbute all honour to the Lord, not to themselves; this because honour per- tains to the function, and is adjoined or separated from the person with the function, 10,796, 10,797. Priests have no right to compel any one, but simply to teach truths, and by truths lead to good; if any one make a disturbance, however, he is to be separated, because this is necessary to preserve order, for the sake of which the pnesthood exists 10 798. As priests are appointed to administer those thmgs wh ch are of the divine law and of worship kings and magistrates are appointed to administer those things which are of the civil law and of judgment; seriatim passages concerning the duties of the latter. ' PRIMOGENITURE. The firstborn of worship signifies the Lord ; the firstborn of the church, faith, 352 end. Love is really the first- boru, and faith is so called from love, 352 Charity is the brother of faith and their fraternity is represented by brethren; hence the dispute as to which is the firstborn ; reference to Cain and Abel, Esau and Jacob Ephraim and Manasseh, 367. Faith is always the firstborn of he church, and faith without charity, which is mere knowledge, of the :^;iupt church; reference to the firstborn of Egypt, to Reuben cajed the firstborn, and to Zidon the firstborn of Canaan, 1063, 1201. Faith is the firstborn of the church in appearance, but charity is such in reality, ill. 2435. It has been a matter of dispute from the most ancient times whether charity or faith is the firstborn, and al who have Dfeferred faith before charity have fallen into heresies and falses; refer- Lee to the crimes recorded of Cain and Reuben. 2435; passages col- lected in series to show how faith and charity or good and truth are related to each other, and that all life, and consequently priority, is vested in good, 3324. By priority, or the pnmogeniture, is meant superiority in degree and dominion; not simply what is pnor in time, 3325. The Lord is the firstborn, and from him those are properly so called who are in love to the Lord, also who are in charity towards the neighbour; thus, good is really the firstborn, although at first to the spiritual man who is regenerating, it appears to be the truth of faith, Mh 3325. In the spiritual church, when commencing, the first-born is the truth of doctrine, or what is the same, faith itself m the internal man; but in the external, it is the doctrine of truth or faith, 3325. When the church actually exists, the first-bom is no longer the doctrine of faith in the external man, but the good of charity, and in the inter- nal, charity itself, 3325. When the church ceases to exist, or regene- ration fails to be effected, faith without charity rules first; as represented by Cain who slew Abel, by Reuben who polluted his father's bed, by Canaan who made a mock of Noah, and finally by Pharaoh and the Egyptians who oppressed the Israelites, 3325; the case of Reuben in particular, 4601, 4605; 6344 cited below. The first-born of Egypt were slain, because the Egyptians in that state represented faith alone when charity is extinguished, and the first-born of the Israelites were afterwards sanctified that the true representation might continue, 3325 ; see below 3519, 4335, 7039, 8038, 8042. Because the first-born repre- sented the Lord, and those who are principled in love to him, the tribe of Levi was accepted in place of all the first-bom of Israel, for Levi denotes conjunction, which is of love, 3325; see below 8080. Good in affection and in life, is the first-born or greater son represented by Esau; reference to the fact that all infants are first in good, namely in a state of innocence and of love towards their parents, and in a state of mutual charity towards their infant companions, 3494. The first-born of Egypt being slain, denotes the good of love and charity extinguished; and the Israelites being saved on this occasion (by the blood of a lamb or kid) denotes the protection of those who are in a state of innocence, 3519. The first-born of Egypt denote truths of faith separate from the good of charity, which truths become falses, 4335; see below 7039. The ancients concluded from the appearance that truth is the first- born, because it is first learnt, before the good of life is manifested; but they did not know that it is good received from the Lord in the internal man which adopts and gives life to truth, 3863. The first-born in the opposite sense denote the false of the church, because the ancients understood by the first-born the trath of faith; here, the false represented by Er the first-born of Judah, 4821, 4830; the office of a brother-in-law, and the naming of his first-born expL 4835. The birth of Pharez and Zarah explained, showing that good is actually prior and superior, and has the primogeniture, but truth apparently, 4923 — 4930. The primogeniture of good represented by Manasseh the first- bom of Joseph; and the appearance that trath has the primogeniture represented by Jacob's treatment of Ephraim as the first-bora, 5351, 6269 — 6300. The first-bora was called by the ancients the father's strength, and the beginning of his strength; because in the genuine sense, the first-born denotes the good of charity, and in the apparent sense the truth of faith, which two are the fundamentals of the church, 6344. Israel is called the Son, the first-bora of Jehovah, from the faith of charity, because the spiritual church is meant; and the spiritual were adopted, and acknowledged for sons, by the coming of the Lord into the world, 7035. The first-born of Egypt slain when the Israelites were delivered, denote faith without charity, which is the mere science of faith, and such faith is damned, 7039, 7763, 7766. The death of the first-born in Egypt denotes the total devastation of truth, or damna- tion of faith, because separated from charity; or of those who are in such faith, 7039, 7778, 7871. The first-born of Pharaoh seated upon his throne, denotes the truths of faith falsified, which are in the first place or in highest esteem as the essentials of the church, 7779. The 926 PRI first-born of the handmaid behind the mills, denotes again the truths of faith falsified, but such as are in the last place, or most external, 7780. The first-born of beasts, denotes the adulterated goods of faith, which goods are adulterated when applied to evil uses, 7781 ; see also 7949 — 7951. The first-born of the Israelites sanctified to Jehovah, denotes faith in the Lord, or the acknowledgment and confession that all faith is from him, 8038, 8042. The first-born denotes faith, when the spiritual church is predicated, because the spiritual esteem faith or truth as the essential, and their good considered in itself really is but truth, 8042. When the spiritual man is regenerated, his truths of faith are derived from the good of charity in which he is principled, and such verimost truth, having their nativity from good, are denoted by the first-born, 8042. All generations have reference in the internal sense to regeneration or the new birth, and hence again the first-born denotes faith, by which man is led to charity, 8042. The first-born of an ass was not to be set apart, but redeemed with a lamb or a kid, because it denotes faith merely natural, which is not from the Lord and is not to be ascribed to him, 8078. The first-born of men were to be redeemed, and the tribe of Levi was substituted in their place, because the truths of faith are not to be ascribed to the Lord, but its goods, ilL 8080 ; further ill. 9224. Note: the primogeniture taken from Esau, and the blessing of which he was defrauded by Jacob, denotes, in the internal historical sense, the obstinate determination of the Jews to represent the church, 4290 end. See Jew (6). PRINCE. See King (3). PRINCESSES. See King (2). PRINCIPAL [principale]. Life from the Lord described as a cause principal, and man the recipient of life as a cause instrumental; it is argued, therefore, that as the principal and instrumental act together as one cause, life is perceived in the instrumental as its own, which it is not, 6325, cited in Life (2), Influx (I); the same argument in refe- rence to soul and body, 10,738. See Instrumental. PRINCIPALITY. Angels are called principalities because in truths, for spiritual angels are meant, 2089. The principality (or government) upon his shoulder, is predicated of the Lord because divine truth is from him, 5044. PRINCIPLE [principium]. 1. False Principles. The difference of intelligence consequent on beginning from faith in the Lord as a principle, and from no faith, but from self-intelligence, br. ill, 128 — 129, 2568, 2572, 2588. Preconceived principles, even if most false, rule all things in their favour, and draw them into consent and con- firmation, 129, 206, 362, 794; see below 1510. It is easy to confirm false principles from the Word, when explored from self-intelligence ; not when the Word is believed in simplicity of heart, ill. 589 cited below. The sphere of principles of the false and persuasions of the false (see 794, 1192 cited below), continually excites such things as confirm, namely, falses instead of truths and evils instead of good, 1510, 1511. They who are in preconceived false principles cannot even see truths, 1017, 2682 near the end. There are several kinds of false principles or persuasions; the origins of which are ill. 1188, 1673, 1675 end, 1679, 4729. Persuasions of the false from the love of self are more infernal than persuasions of the false from the love of the world; the PRI 927 difference br. ill, 1675 end. Falses are not so injurious unless from evils, and unless they are confirmed, 589, 845; see below, 1106, 1109. Principles of the false, and still more persuasions of the false, such as prevailed with the antediluvians, prevent the operation of remains, (535, 798. Persuasions of the false are hurtful because they form the intellectual life, which then makes a one with the voluntary life, or the cupidities, 794, 806. They who imbibe false principles, as to faith, from simplicity and ignorance, are vastated in the other life, and to this end are kept in the lower earth; afterwards they are instructed and receive the truths of faith, 1106, 1109. The sphere of phantasies and persuasions is like a mist, and it so appears in the other life, especially where the antediluvians are, 1512; see Phantasy, and the passages cited below (7). 2. That Principles rule. False principles being assumed, men do not suffer themselves to be persuaded against them, even by truths, but the truths become falsified, br. ill. 2385. In this case, it is the love of self and the world that flows into the rational part, with a kind of lumen derived from the fire of evil, in which lumen falses appear like truths, 2385. Innumerable ideas enter into the principles or persua- sions of the false, whereby falsities are continually confirmed; but with the regenerate they are bent to goods and truths, 2364, 2380, 2388, 3986. False principles maybe confirmed by numerous arguments, so as to become doctrinals, which appear like truths, 2385, 2490; in like manner, and by as many reasons and illustrations from the memory, truth may be confirmed, 2388, 2490. See False. 3. Principles^ or Eternal Truths, received in the Most Ancient Church ; some briefly mentioned, and that they were confirmed in nume- rous ways by perceptions, which comprehended particulars, and singu- lars of particulars, 597. 4. The Principles of Intelligence with the Angels, are briefly these — to know and perceive that all life is from the Lord; that the whole heaven corresponds to his divine human, and consequently all angels, spirits and men to heaven ; also, to know and perceive the quality of this correspondence, 4318. 5. That the Principles of Sense and Motion are in the Brain, 9656, 10,044. 6. The Principles or beginnings of many Diseases, ex. 5718. 7. Persuasions distinguished from Principles ; Persuasive Faith. Nothing but what is false can proceed from the proprium, and yet it may be accompanied with a strong persuasion that it is most true, 215; read also 362. Man*s very life is from what he persuades himself, or acknowledges and believes, to be true, 303; ill. 803 cited below. The antediluvians (called Nephilim, Anakim, and Rephaim), were imbued with such persuasions as never existed before or afterwards, the destruc- tive nature of which is br. ill, 562 — 563 ; further ill. 570 ; but particu- larly 581. The perception of truth and good was extinguished by the persuasions of the antediluvians, 573, 579, 581, 635 ; their direful and horrible character described from experience, 1268—1271, 1673, 7686. Persuasions or false principles are of siich a nature when rooted in man as to obstruct the operation of the Lord, so that regeneration is impos- sible till they are extirpated, 635, 778; 3463 end, cited below. Deadly persuasions are imbued when truths are perverted to favour the loves of vol. II. IT 928 PRl self and the world, 794; 562 — 563 and following nunnbers. Falses are described in two kinds — principles of the false, or the doctrines which conduce to systems ; and persuasions of the false, which are truths made to favour the loves of self and the world, 794, 1192; compare 5128 cited below. The persuasions of the antediluvians are fully de- scribed by birds, and beasts, and creeping things ; for all the affections denoted by them in the opposite sense (thus, whatever pertains to the understanding and the will), are contained in the persuasions of a man, notwithstanding his ignorance of the fact, ill. 803; see also 778. Persuasive faith described in general — that it takes so strong a hold of the life, it can be loosened only by despair ; and no truth, that is really true, can enter into it, 2682, 2689 end, 2694. Persuasive faith has the outward semblance of faith ; but it becomes manifest in the other life, that it is only a thing of the memory, 3865. Those are in persuasive faith who profess the doctrines of faith, but are not in the good of life, and so far they are the reverse of intelligent, ill. 3427 ; compare 2715; ill. 8148; seriatim, 9363 — 9369. It is diiiicult to be introduced into the good of charity, when persuasions which are not truths are rooted in the mind ; such persuasions therefore have first to be eradicated, 3463 end. Unless the life agree with the doctrines held to be true, infemals dwell with man in his affections, and his faith becomes a per- suasive one, 3464. The evil sometimes have a persuasive conviction of the truth, and when they first come into the other life fancy themselves angels, while, in fact, they are devils ; how such condemn others from apparent zeal for truth, 3895. A false principle is received as truth when good is in it ; on the contrary, truth is rendered false when good is not in it ; hence, the doctrine of faith alone saving is untrue, 4736. Principles confirmed in doctrine and life remain to eternity, for by doc- trine the intellectual part is imbued, and by life the will, 4747. They who are in good natural not spiritual, are easily persuaded that the false is true, and thus led to evil, ill. 5032 — 5033; compare 5554. They who are in the persuasion of what is false (understand those who are confirmed in the false), are interiorly bound ; but it is otherwise with those who are not confirmed, ill. 5096. Observations concerning the persuasion of the false, the signs by which it may be known whether any one is in such persuasion, how it closes up the rational mind, &c., 5 1 28. Falses arranged in order from evil make a persuasion, which order is that of hell ; also, that it is opposed to the order of truths under good, which is that of heaven, ill. 5704, further ill. 6907, 7437. Man is easily led to persuade himself that the evil he delights in is not evil, by influx from hell, ill. 6203. Persuasions of the false and cupidities of evil are inseparable ; ill. by the correspondence of a great hail and fire with the hail, 7577. That they who reason from false persuasions, and thus deceive the simple, are denoted by serpents, 6949, 7298. In connection with the dire persuasions of the antediluvians, see an account of the spirits of Mars ; one described ascending from beneath, through the loins and breast; that such believe themselves to be in the Lord, and that whatever they do, however wicked, is from him, 7621, 7622. See Nephilim. 8. Persuasive Truthy that it is hard, unyielding, and without exten- sion, wherefore it is contrary to order for any one to be persuaded con- cerning the truth in a moment, 7298. PRO 929 PRIORITY. See Primogeniture. PRISON [career]. By the sick is meant those who are in evil; by the bound, or in prison, they who are in the false, 4956, 4958. To be put into prison, and kept bound therein, denotes temptations as to false-speaking against good, 5036, sh. 5037. By the house of the pri- son (where Joseph is treated of), is meant the part under the soles of the feet, where those who undergo vastation as to falses are held, 5037. To be bound in prison denotes the state of those who endure temptations in order that what is false may be vastated, because as to intentions they are in good, 5037. The bound in prison denote those who are in falses from ignorance of truth, 5037. The place in which the bound of the king are bound (meaning Pharaoh) denotes the state of those who are in falses, and are therefore in vastation, 5038. The same places are called pits, and by a pit is meant the place of vastation in the other life, mentioned above, 5038. The governor or keeper of a prison house, denotes the truth which rules during a state of temptation, ill. 5044. The butler and baker of Pharaoh put in the house of the prison, where Joseph was bound, denotes the state of temptation by reason of falses, now predicated of exteriors, which before was predicated of the interior only, 5085, 5086. They are called bound and in prison who are in falses, but especially who are in evils, thus who are in falses derived from evils; such also are really bound interiorly by their persuasions, 5096. To be bound or imprisoned, and given into custody, denotes separation and rejection, 5083, 5089, 5101, 5452, 5456. The bound in a pit denote the spiritual who, before the coming of the Lord, were detained in the lower earth, and were afterwards liberated and elevated into heaven, 6854. PROCEED, to [procedere]. See to Go Forth, 5337, 7124, 9303. PROCEEDING [procedens]. See Holy (2). PROCESSION OR PROCEDURE, predicated of truth, and ill. 9407. PROCURATOR. See Steward. PRODIGY [prodiffium]. See Miracle (5). PRODIGAL. The prodigal son in the parable (Luke xv. 11—32), denotes those who waste heavenly riches, which are knowledges of good and truth, br. 9391. PRODUCE or INCREASE [proventus, Gen. xlvii. 24], denotes fruit derived from the good of charity and truth of faith, 6155. The land to be sown six years, and its fruit or produce gathered in (Exod. xxiii. 10), denotes the state when man is instructed in the goods and truths of faith, and the appropriation of the goods of truth, sh. 9272 — 9273. See Food. PRODUCED, to be [produci], denotes ulterior increase predicated of good, 6647. To be produced when the church is treated of (here represented by a woman with child), has reference to the production of good by truth, and such production of good takes place when truth passes from the understanding into the will and from the will into act, 4904. When good has the dominion, produce is predicated of truth, for good not only multiplies truths about itself, but produces truths from truths in series, represented by children, grandchildren, &c., 5912. That good produces itself by truths, ill. bv the action of the u2 930 PRO prolific virtue in the seeds of plants, 9258. See Fruit, to Fructify, to Grow, Increase, Multiplication, Generation.

PROFANE, to [prophanare]. 1. Pro/aners and what Pro/ana- tion consists in. They who would profane the truths of faith are kept in ignorance of them, for otherwise they would bring damnation upon themselves, 301—303; see below 3398. Only those are capable of pro- faning who first acknowledge truth, but not those who do not acknow- ledge, still less they who do not know, 302 end, 303, 593, 1008, 1059, ill. 1327; also 3398, 3757, 4289, 6595, 10,287 cited below. The truths of faith are profaned when immersed in the lusts, and such pro- fanation causes a kind of clot [callus'], which absorbs the goods and truths of remains, so that they can never be produced, 571, 582; pas- sages cited 5128. Men are permitted to live in pleasures and cupidi- ties, and thus remove themselves from internal things, lest they should profane them by acknowledgment; hence, the Gentiles are least of all liable to profanation, 1327. They who are within the church can pro- fane holy things, and accordingly are in greater peril of damnation than the Gentiles; hence the necessity of their purification from every love of self and the world, which purification was represented by cir- cumcision, 2051. Divine good and truth cannot be profaned except by those who have first acknowledged them, because they are thus im- pressed in the internal memory, and are recalled to mind at the same time as evil and the false, 3398. They whose Uves are such that good and truth must be profaned in them, are withheld as much as possible from the acknowledgment and faith of what is good and true; for this reason internal truths were not discovered to the Jews, 3398, 4289. More decidedly expressed, that none are admitted into good and truth, that is, into acknowledgment and aflTection, further than they can be preserved therein, because of the peril of eternal damnation, 3402; but that some cannot be withheld, 3402 end. They who belong to the celestial church are able to profane holy goods ; the spiritual, holy truths, 3757, see below (3). They are profaners who first acknowledge in heart holy things, and afterwards deny them ; not such as do not acknowledge in heart ; passages cited 4032, 4289. Profanation con- sists in acknowledging and believing truths and goods, and at the same time in willing and living contrary to them, 4601. Profanations take place in those who have known and acknowledged internal truths in boyhood but denied them in adult age, 4868 end, especially 6959, 9188, the latter cited below. To prevent profanation men are permitted to be in evil and the false, and withheld from faith and charity, because profanations are from the conjunction of good and evil, 6348. Extenor profanation is ascribed to him who knows internal truths but does not acknowledge or believe them, and this can be removed; but interior profanation takes place in one who believes yet lives against the truth, or who first believes and afterwards denies, 6963 end. If a man relapse to his former evil life after repentance, he profanes, because he conjoins evil to good, and in this case his latter state is worse than his former, 8394. To profane is to turn truth into evil, that is, to believe what is PRO 931 true and yet live in evil; it is also to turn good into the false, that is, to live holily, and yet believe nothing, 8882; see below 10,208. Pro- fanation takes place with those who have acknowledged the truth of faith when they apply it to evil, because thus the truth of faith is commixed with the false of evil, ill. 9020; passages cited 9021, 10,287. Profanation is the infernal marriage, opposite to the heavenly marriage, 9188, Within the church, man is with difficulty withheld from the conjunction of what is false and evil with truths; this because he imbues the truths of faith in boyhood, 9188. Truths from good are not commixed with falses from evil, so long as they are in the memory only and without life; but if they are falsified to favour evil then they are commixed, and the profanation of truth takes place, 9298. The holy things of the church are profaned by sins, because sins remove the divine from them, and nothing is holy in which the divine is not pre- sent, 10,208. The conjunction of divine truth with the false from evil is profanation, and this conjunction takes place with those more espe- cially who have acknowledged the Lord and afterwards denied him, 10,287. The whole art and study of hypocrites and profaners is to teach and do good, while interiorly they think and will evil, 3987. Hence, profaners internally are devils, and externally, appear as angels of light, 3987, 5120; see below (10). 2. Pro/anatioH distinguished into several kinds. There are several kinds of profanation; generally, they profane the truths of faith who, while they know, acknowledge, and even preach them, nevertheless indulge in evil, ill. 1008. Adulteries and whoredoms in the Word denote variously adulterations of good and falsifications of truth; but conjunctions within the prohibited degrees (Lev. xviii. 6 — 24), denote various kinds of profanations, 6348. There are many kinds of profana- tion, and many varieties of each kind; some of the principal enume- rated, 10,287. 3. Profanation predicated of the Celestial and Spiritual respectively. The spiritual cannot adulterate good so far as to profane it, because they have no perception of good; but they can profane truth, because able to acknowledge it, yet not in the last times of the church, 3399, 3402. Good could be profaned by the celestial who had perception, and it was so profaned by the antediluvians, who are therefore detained in a hell separated from those of others, 3399. The profanation of good takes place when faith is separated from charity in understanding and thence in life; for in such, evil is conjoined with truth; and good with the false, 4601; see below, 6348. In order that the spiritual might be saved, the Lord miraculously separated their intellectual part from their voluntary part; a brief explanation of the manner in which the profane conjunction of evil with truth and of good with the false takes place in such, 4601. Unless faith be conjoined to good it becomes no faith, or is conjoined to evil, whence comes profanation; for this reason they who cannot be regenerated are withheld from faith and charity ; passages cited, 6348. The spiritual in boyhood and early manhood receive the truths of the church on the credit of others, and if they recede the pro- fanation is light and may be removed by divine means ; but afterwards when they have confirmed the truth in themselves, the denial of it, and a life contrary to it, causes grievous profanation; and they have so little life that they appear like skeletons, 6959, 6963 end. The lot of those 932 PRO f PRO 933 who profane good, which only the celestial can do, is much harder than theirs who profane truth, 6959 ; compare 10,652 cited below (4). 4. The Profanation of Good, is the affection of evils conjoined to truths, and the profanation of truth is the conjunction of truths with falses, 8h. 10,652. The first conjunction of the affection of evil with truth is not profanation, but the second, viz., when evil is apphed to truth and truth to evil, by the interpretation and application of truth to evil, thus, by the insertion of the one in the other, 10,652. As to the profanation of good by the celestial who have perception, see above (3). 5. Profaned Truth, is the false conjoined to the true; falsified truth is the false, not conjoined, but adjoined to truth and ruling over it, 7319. In the other life nothing is so abominable and stinks so much as profaned truth, 7319. 6. Profane Worship. Worship which appears holy in externals, but is internally profane, is denoted by Babel ; also, br. ex, that the quality of worship in externals is altogether according to the interior state, 1182. All profanation of worship is from the love of self, or the proprium, to which love is attributed every evil, as hatred, revenge, cruelty, adultery, deceit, hypocrisy, impiety, and the like, 1326. When these and similar loves rule in man, worship becomes more and more external lest the internal should be profaned, ill, and sh. 1326, 1327, 3757. The state of the first ancient church was changed, and the nations who composed it became idolaters, so that they should be with- held from profanation ; this represented by the dispersion at Babel, 1328. Worship is internally profane when the Lord is acknowledged in externals, while the heart is devoted to self and the world, 3899. To profane is predicated of worship from the proprium, which is no wor- ship, ill, 8943. To conjoin what is divine with the proprium, thus with evil, is to profane, 10,117. When worship is applied by man to his own uses, his own loves, it is rendered profane and infernal, 10,307, 10,309. The imitation of divine worship, and of affections from the proprium, as if they were celestial, is infernal, 10,309. That the evil believe all things are from the proprium, or of their own prudence, not so the good, 10,779. 7. Profanations of the Word and of holy things are most dangerous, ill, 571, 582; passages cited seriatim, 3398 end, 3757, 4289, 6959, 9021. 8. The Damnation of those who profane holy things; briefly, that it is caused by the commixture and association of ideas, which occasion infernal torment, 301. When the truths of faith are immersed in the lusts the profane and holy cohere together in every idea, and this pro- fane commixture can never be resolved or extirpated, br, ill. 582, further ill. 1009, 3398. The profanation of holy things is a cause of eteraal damnation, because those who profane have that which damns continu- ally in themselves, thus their hell, 1327, 2426, 3398. The providence of the Lord is operative to prevent good and evil being commixed, and therefore so far as man is in evil he is removed from good ; nevertheless the deceitful within the church are in great peril of this profane com- mixture, 2426, 3398, 3402, 9188. Deceit and profanation are two things which render it impossible that man should become rational ; for thus, the goods and truths remaining from infancy are mingled with evils and falses; passages cited 5128, see above (1), 571. Opposite truths and falses cannot subsist together in one subject, but falses applied to truths and thus associated with them constitute the profane state, 5217. Evils of life and persuasions of the false close up the way, so that remains cannot be produced, but denial of the truth, previously acknowledged in affection, consumes remains; for this is the mingling of the false and the true meant by profanation, 5897, see below (9). 9. The Interiors destroyed by Profanation. The denial of divine truth previously acknowledged in heart and life, is the sin against the Holy Spirit, which cannot be remitted, because it destroys the interiors of man, 9818 end. By the interiors thus destroyed is to be understood remains, 5897, cited above (8), 6348. By the destruction of the inte- riors is to be understood an actual dilaceration and loss of life, in con- sequence of the opposite communication, by truths with heaven, and by the falses of evil with hell, 10,287. 10. The Lot of Profaners in the other life ; br. sh, that it is much worse than the lot of those called Gentiles who have lived in ignorance of the truth, 593. When they who profane the Word come into the other life, they exhibit hatred to one another and to the Lord, and to all the goods of love and the truths of faith, however piously they had lived in the body, 1010. The hell of profaners is the most grievous of all, 4031, 6348, 6960. Description of some amongst pro- faners, who defile spiritual truths by applying them to terrestrial things; anything concerning conjugial love, for example, to whoredoms and adulteries, 4050, 5390. The lot of profaners is so bad because remains are destroyed in them ; the situation of their hell br. described, and that they appear like skeletons, 6348, 6959, 10,287. The hells of pro- faners are numerous and distinct, according to the varieties of profana- tion ; the profaners of good are situated at the back ; those of truth are under the feet and at the sides, 10,287. The hells of profaners are more profound than others, and are rarely opened, 10,287. 11. That the Gentiles cannot profane holy things, 1327, 1328, 2051. Even the denial of the Lord by those born out of the church, as the Gentiles, Mahommedans and Jews, is not profanation, 9021 end. 12. The Jews guarded from Profanation, The Jews have always been kept in ignorance of the interior truths of faith lest they should profane them, 302, 303. At the time of the Lord's advent the Jews were in a state of vastation, and could no longer acknowledge any truth, hence interior truths could be revealed because there was no danger they would be profaned, 303. The Jews are still held in a state of vas- tation by their cupidities, especially by avarice, and hence they acknow- ledge and believe nothing concerning the Lord, even though they live in the midst of Christians, 303 end, 1327, 4751, 6963. In order that internal truths might not be profaned the Lord came in the fulness of time, when even natural good had perished, for it is good that receives truth, and when not received and acknowledged it cannot be profaned, 3398 ; passages cited seriatim, 3757, 4289, 4751. The internal truths of the church were preserved lest they should be profaned by the pos- terity of Jacob; this denoted by the embalmment of Joseph, 6595. The Jews and Israelites were in danger beyond others of profaning truth, for had they known the interior truths represented in the ritual of their church, and yet lived according to their own especially evil nature, they 934 PRO must have profaned them ; for this reason, they vvere withheld as far as possible from such knowledge; and hence their leprosy, 6963. They who have just acknowledged divine truths, and afterwards denied them, are profaners ; but they who have been brought up in the denial of them, as the Jews and others, do not profane ; also, that the greatest care is taken by the Lord to prevent profanation; passages cited 10,287. 13. Profanation represented in the Word, The providence of the Lord, guarding the celestial from profanation, denoted by the casting of Adam out of the garden, 301, 306, 3399 end. The truths of the church profaned by conjunction with the lusts, denoted by the sons of God taking them wives of the daughters of men, 569 — 571, 582. Profana- tion by the commixture of what is holy with the propriura of man, denoted by eating flesh with the soul or blood in it, 1001, 1003, 1008, 3757. Profane worship denoted by the building of Babel, 1 182, 1183, 1325—1328, 4868 end, 5120. The prevention of profanation by puri- fication from evils and falses denoted by circumcision, 2050 — 2053, 7049. The profanation of truth, denoted by lying with a woman, in the history of Abraham and Abimelech, 3398, 3399, 3402. The pro- fanation of good, denoted by Reuben lying with his father's concubine (also by Cain, by Ham, and by the Egyptians immersed in the Red Sea), 4601, 6348. The internal of the church preserved from the con- tagion of evil, thus from profanation, denoted by Joseph being em- balmed and put into a coffer in Egypt, 6595, 6596. The profanation of truth when it takes place in the spiritual church, denoted by the hand of Moses made leprous, and by the laws concerning leprosy among the Jews, 6959 — 6963. Profane truth, denoted by the river of Egypt when it stank, 7319. Profanations and blasphemies of the good and truth of faith, denoted by taking the name of God in vain, 8882. Worship profaned, because from self-intelligence, denoted by the build- ing of an altar with hewn stones, 8942, 8943. Damnation because of profaning the truth of faith by its application to evil, denoted by steal- ing a man and selling him, 9017 — 9020. The profanation of all the good and truth of the church, and hence damnation, denoted by the cursing of father and mother, 9021. Profanation of worship, and of the truth of the church, denoted by sacrifices offered with leaven, espe- cially of blood and leaven, 9298. The profanation of good in worship, denoted by leaving the fat of the sacrifice during the night, 9299. The profanation of what is holy by its commixture with the proprium, denoted by eating of the flesh and bread of the sacrifices the day fol- lowing, 10,117. The profanation of divine truth by its conjunction with those who deny the Lord, denoted by anointing a stranger with the holy oil, 10,287. The profanation of good and truth, denoted by whoredoms with the daughters of the Canaanites, 10,652. Damnation because of the profanation of worship, denoted by the hanging of the princes when the Israelites whored after Baalpeor (Num. xxv. 4), 5044. Truths profaned, denoted by the hanging of princes, mentioned after the ravishing of women and virgins (Lam. v. 12), 5044. The false of interior evil, veiled with outward holiness, and hence profane wor- ship, denoted by Babylon called a golden cup, and by a golden cup filled with the abominations and filthinesses of her fornications ( Jer. li. 7 ; Rev. xvii. 4), 5120. The profanation of interior goods and truths in the last times of the first Christian church, denoted by the words in PRO 935 Matthew (xxiv. 19 — 22), Woe to them that are with child and to them that give suck, &c., 3754 — 3757. The profanation of divine truth im- planted in the life of man, and hence the interiors destroyed, denoted by the sin that can never be forgiven, 98 1 8 end. 14. To profane the Sabbath; that, in the internal sense, it is to be led by self and by its loves instead of the Lord, 10,362; for full par- ticulars, see Sabbath. PROPITIATION, OR EXPIATION, is protection from the mun- dation of evil; ill. by the protection of the ark with pitch, 645, The pardoning of sins, expiation, propitiation, and redemption, are only so many ways of denoting purification from evils and falses, the implanta- tion of truth and good, and their conjunction, thus regeneration, 10,042. 10,122, 10,127, 10,128. See Expiation, Evil. PROPITIATORY or MERCY-SEAT, the [propitiatoriuml or- dered to be made of pure gold (Ex. xxv. 17), denotes the hearing and reception of the all of worship that is from the good of love, 9506, 10,196. It denotes, therefore, the cleansing from evils or remission of sins, understood of expiation, because only those who are thus expiated can be heard in worship, ill. and sh. 9506; 10,122, 10,127, 10,128 cited above; for particulars, see Tent. PROPRIUM. 1. That the Proprium of Man is all the Evil and False, springing from the love of self and the world, 39, 41, br, 154, 164, br. ill. 210, 215, 633, 731, 987, 1049. From the proprium, man believes only in himself, and takes evil for good, and the false for the true, 210. From the proprium man believes that nothing is real, but what he receives sensually, hence he has no belief in the Lord, or in the Word, 210. It is the proprium and this alone that ever deceives man, and nothing else is here meant by woman, 152; and previously, by the rib or bone, 147, 148, 149, 153, 157. Even in the most celestial angel the proprium is nothing but what is evil and false, for the all of good and truth is from the Lord alone, 633; see below 987. As heaven is from the Lord by mutual love, so hell is from the proprium of man by the love of self and the world; and as heaven from this love makes one man, so hell from this infernal proprium makes one devil, 694. In his proprium man is called dead, because it is nothing but evil and falsity ; how it is softened and vivified by the Lord by means of temptations, 731. From his proprium man can do nothing good, and think nothing true ; for though his thoughts were occupied with truth, it would still want the good of faith, and hence would not be truth unless from the Lord, 874 — 876. Evils are from the proprium predicated of the will, falses from the proprium of the understanding, 878, 1042; see below 1047. Every man, spirit, and angel, as to his proprium, is mere evil, described as vile excrement; and left to himself, breathes nothing but hatreds, revenges, cruelties, and filthy adulteries, 987. From the volun- tary proprium or part of man, which is nothing but evil, falsity con- tinually flows into the intellectual part, 1047. The proprium is two- fold both as to the intellectual part and the voluntary part; the one infernal, or from hell; the other from the Lord, 3812. The whole pro- prium of man is nothing but evil, and hence no one can believe that evil is from hell who is given up to the love of self; passages cited 381 2. The proprium of man is acquired to himself by his own actual evils, and is not imputed his from hereditary evil, ilL 4171. The pro- 936 PRO prium is mere evil; and study from the proprium is the false proceed- ing from evil, ill. 10,284. See Evil (2), Man (21, 22). 2. Historical Notices concerning the Proprium. The proprium is first mentioned by the author where he is treating of those who are about to be regenerated ; it is described as the selfhood of man, which is inanimate, and wholly occupied with what is false and evil till it receives life from the Lord, 39, 41. The posterity of those who were regenerated and constituted the most ancient church, are described as inclining to their proprium, or no longer content to be led by the Lord, 132. They who first inclined to the proprium were of a good genius, wherefore a proprium was conceded to them, such that it was their own in appearance only, 140 ; see note below (15). It was given them to know, and sensibly to acknowledge, their quahty as to affections of good and truth received from the Lord, still their inclination to the proprium continued till it seemed to them that they lived, thought, spoke, and acted altogether from themselves, 142, 146, 147, 150. In this state of the proprium man is treated as fallen, and the proprium before described as a woman created or made for man, is now described as a rib taken from him and built into a woman, 153, ill. 155. In his proper state the celestial man had distinct perception of the internal and external, but in the changed state of his posterity the internal was perceived as one with the external; such being the quality of perception when a pro- prium is desired, 159. This posterity of the most ancient church was still in a good state, but they desired to live in the proprium or external man, and this was permitted by the Lord, who also mercifully insinuated the celestial-spiritual, or a state of innocence, 161, 164, 165. After this, a third state of the most ancient church is described in which they loved the proprium; in this state however they had suflicient perception remaining to know they were in evil, and were still distinguished by natural goodness, 190—193, 194— -233. At length, at the end of the most ancient church the voluntary proprium had become altogether corrupt, and then the intellectual proprium was miraculously separated from it, 1023. With the celestial of the most ancient church the volun- tary proprium in which was good, and the intellectual proprium in which was truth, made one; but in the ancient or spiritual church, the voluntary proprium had perished, and only the intellectual proprium remained whole ; ill. by a representation from heaven, 4328. See Man (43). 3. Its various quality in Men, Spirits, and Angels. The worldly and corporeal man is nothing but proprium; the spiritual man is similar except as to a better knowledge (for he knows that the all of life and intelligence is from the Lord) ; the celestial man perceives and acknow- ledges this, and does not even desire a proprium, 141 ; cited below (5). The proprium dear to man has so little life in it that it is signified by a bone of the breast; but the proprium vivified by the Lord is signified by flesh, 147—149; see below 999, 3812. The proprium has no life of its own, of which fact even evil spirits were convinced by experience; the author also testifies that for years he was conscious of the influx of every idea, and whence and in what manner it flowed in, 150. The proprium is so utterly evil and false, that the author testifies he had only to know that spirits spake from themselves to be assured that they uttered nothing but falsity, 215. Both spirits and men when they PRO 937 speak from the proprium speak falsely, however strongly persuaded that they speak the truth, 215. The proprium is infernal and diabolic when from self, but celestial and angelic when from the Lord, 252. The reception of charity and innocence not only excuses, but may be said to abolish the proprium, 164 ; but that it only ceases to appear and is not really abolished, 633, 731, 1581. In the spiritual man the intellectual proprium is as a cloud or obscurity which receives light from the Lord; how fair it then appears, according to reception, as represented by colours, rainbows, &c., 731, 1042, 1043, 1048. The voluntary pro- prium, after the celestial church had come to its end, is described as altogether corrupt, and is signified by flesh, 999, 2041; passages cited 10,035. Truth is predicated of the intellectual proprium, which is denoted by bone ; good of the voluntary proprium, which is denoted by flesh; this in both senses, 3812, 10,035, 10, 283. The proprium is softened and its pride reduced by temptations, and then good is received, which brings with it a new will and a new proprium, 5773 ; also 1023, 1044 cited (8). It is in order the proprium may be subdued that wor- ship is claimed for the Lord alone ; for in the same proportion that the proprium recedes the divine is received, 10,646. In further illustration of this — that he who is led of himself and his own loves cannot be saved; passages cited 10,731; and that all good in man is from the Lord, all evil from self, 10,808. 4. The Proprium of the Corporeal Man; briefly described as infer- nal, because nothing from the Lord is received therein, 141. The pro- prium in itself is infernal and already damned, 210. By his voluntary proprium man communicates with hell, and he would cast himself into hell if not withheld by divine means, he is such a devil, 1049. 5. The Celestial Proprium; the Heavenly Proprium. The celestial man does not desire a proprium, yet a proprium is given to him by the Lord, conjoined with every felicity and perception of good and truth, 141, ill. 155; see below 1594. The angels have a celestial proprium, which is such that the Lord rules them by it ; this proprium is the celestial principle itself, 141, The heavenly marriage takes place in the proprium, and the proprium vivified by the Lord is called his bride and wife, 155, 252, sh, 253 ; see 1023, cited below (8). When the proprium is receptive of innocence, peace and good, from the Lord, it appears like a proprium still, but a most happy and heavenly one, 252. A hea- venly proprium being given to man (if only he is principled in mutual love), it appears as if the internal man were his, when yet it is of the Lord himself in man, 1594 near the end. No one can receive a heavenly proprium from the Lord but by doing good and thinking truth as from himself, 2882, 2883, 2891. The heavenly proprium is the voluntary proprium of man vivified by divine good from the Lord, 3813; see below 5660. All who come into heaven put off their proprium and self-confidence, also their merit and self-righteousness, and put on the heavenly proprium from the Lord, 4007 end. The proprium of man consists in thinking of himself in all things ; the heavenly proprium, in thinking of the neighbour, the public, the church, the Lord's kingdom, and the Lord in all things, 5660. They receive a heavenly proprium who, in freedom, prefer to will, and think, and act from the Lord; he who is in this proprium trusts to the Lord, and is blessed and happy to eternity, 5660. The heavenly proprium exists from the new will 938 PRO PRO 939 I which is given by the Lord, 5660, ill, 8179. Good from the Lord has inmostly in it heaven and the Lord; but good from the proprium con- tains within itself hell, ill. 8480. Good and truth from the Lord cannot be appropriated to any angel or man as his own any more than life from the Lord; hence they are given to the regenerate who receive a heavenly proprium, as if their own, though not actually so, ill, 8497. Life (and good and truth, which are of life,) appear as if they were of man's pro- priuna, because the love of the Lord is such, that he desires to give all that is his to man; hence the heavenly proprium, 8497. They who have the Word, thus, where the church is, are called the Lord's pro- prium or peculiar treasure [peculium], sh, 8768. All that is from the Lord in man is holy, all that is from himself is evil, because his pro- prium is nothing but evil ; passages cited, 9229. Divine good from the Lord cannot touch or communicate with man's proprium, because it is nothing but evil, 10,283. 6. The Proprium vivified by the Lord; that it has a perception of all the good of love and truth of faith, thus, all intelligence and wisdom conjoined with ineffable felicity, 155, 164, 252 ; see above (5). 7. The Proprium seen from Heaven is inanimate like bone, and most deformed, 149. The proprium of man seen in the world of spirits is deformed beyond description; but if vivified by charity and innocence from the Lord, most beautiful, 154, 164, 731. The intellectual proprium when regenerated, appears resplendent with colours from the light of heaven, and the more beautiful the farther it is removed from the volun- tary proprium, 1042, 1043. 8. The Distinction of the Proprium into Intellectual and Voluntary; that it was the means provided for the salvation of man, when the voluntary proprium had become altogether corrupt, 1023. The heavenly marriage is in the voluntary proprium with the celestial ; and in the intellectual proprium with the spiritual, 1023. The new will, which is conscience, is formed in the intellectual proprium, 1023. So far as the voluntary proprium can be separated from the intellectual, so far the Lord can be present with man, 1023; see below 1044. Temptations, and similar means of regeneration, have the effect of quieting the volun- tary proprium, so that it is rendered as it were dead, and then the Lord is able to operate by charity in man, and enter into covenant with him, 1023 ; see below 1044. The intellectual proprium, or the false, is as an obscure ground, or an opaque whiteness, in which the rays of spiritual light are modified ; the voluntary proprium is a blackness which absorbs and extinguishes light, 1042, 1043. The intellectual proprium in the spiritual man, when he is regenerated, is of the Lord ; the voluntary proprium of self, because the latter cannot be regenerated, 1044. The intellectual proprium when regenerated is heaven, but the voluntary proprium is hell ; hence so far as the Lord is present in the intellectual proprium so far the voluntary is removed, or so far man is elevated from hell to heaven, 1044. Falsity, by which the intellectual proprium is characterised, flows in from the voluntary, 1047. The voluntary pro- prium in the spiritual is destroyed, and a new voluntary is formed in the intellectual part by the truths of the church; passages cited, 7233. Generally, that the proprium of man is nothing but evil; that there is a voluntary proprium and an intellectual proprium, and that the latter is the false proceeding from evil ; ill, and sh, where the sig- nification of flesh and blood, and of anointing, is treated of, 10,283, 10,286. 9. The Proprium of Innocence ; that it exists when a man knows, acknowledges, and believes in heart that nothing but evil is from self, and that all good is from the Lord, ill. 3994, 4001, 4008, 4023. 10. Freedom from the Proprium ; its state contrasted with the hap- piness of freedom from the Lord, 5660 end, 5786 end. All freedom from the proprium or from man himself is infernal, 5763. Freedom from the proprium is nothing but evil, consisting in pleasures of all kinds and in contempt and hatred of others, except they are subservient to one's self, 5686. He who is in freedom from the proprium is a devil in human form, 5786. See Liberty. 11. As if from the Proprium, yet not from the Proprium, That man ought to do what is good and true from the proprium, or exactly as if the power to do so were his own, ill, 1712. If man first compels himself to do good, he receives from the Lord a heavenly proprium, and what he does from the proprium is done from freedom, ill, 1 937, 1947, 2882, 2883, 2891. In the other life, they who are first instructed concerning influx hang down their hands and lose all delight in thinking and acting, because of the deprivation of their proprium ; afterwards, those among them who are regenerated receive a heavenly proprium from the Lord, and live in blessedness, 5660. Man ought to fight against evils and falses as from himself, nevertheless acknowledging in heart that it is from the Lord; in this case good and truth are appro- priated, and a new and heavenly proprium is given to him, which is the new will, 8179. The author speaks of vast numbers in Christendom, who believe that all things are from themselves and their own prudence, not from divine providence; their acknowledgment of this in the other life, saying that it is borne out by experience, because the evil and impious more often obtain wealth and honour than the good; the author's reply, that such reasoning is from self- intelligence or the pro- prium, these supposed blessings being often curses, and that these things are obtained because men are led by the intellectual faculty, which is left in freedom; the hell of such and their study of magical arts briefly mentioned, 10,409; see also 7007, 8717. Briefly repeated, that the evil attribute all to their own prudence, not so the good, 10,779. See Prudence, Providence. 12. To believe from the Proprium, is to believe not from truth, ill. 4137; see also 3812 cited above (1). 13. Truthsfrom the Proprium; Worship from the Proprium, Truths that are shaped by man's own intelligence, do but appear as truths, for they have no life in them, 8941 ; see below 8944. Truths from which the Lord is to be worshipped are to be taken from the Word only, for in every such truth there is life from the Lord, 8941. There are two kinds of religious worship derived from the proprium; one in which the love of self and the world is all, denoted by Babel ; the other in which the lumen of the natural man, and own intelligence is all, denoted by idols and strange gods, ill. and sh. 8941. No other is to be worshipped but the Lord, because he who worships the Lord is in humiliation, and in this state of humility there is a receding of the proprium, 10,646, cited above (3). It is supposed by some that the knowledge of divme things originated in man's own intelligence, but all such knowledges are 940 PRO derived from ancient revelation ; in proof of this, those who are most learned have the least living view of spiritual things, and are prone be- yond others to worship nature, ill, 8944. 14. That the Lord alone has a Proprium, because he alone is life, and man is but a recipient or organ of life, ah, 149. The Lord was born into a church that was fallen into an infernal and diabolic proprium, in order that, by his own power, he might unite the divine celestial pro- prium to the human proprium, in his human essence, so that in him they should become one, 256. The Lord's proprium was divine good itself, and whatever is said to be given by the Father to the Son, is to be understood as derived to him from his proprium, ill, and ah, 3705. The proprium of the Lord, understood as divine good predi- cated of the divine human, is signified bv his flesh, by the bread in the Holy Supper, &c., ill, and sh, 3813. The proprium of the Lord, sig- nified by his flesh and blood, is the divine which he acquired to himself in the human ; the flesh divine good, the blood divine truth, ill. and ah, 4935. See Lord (39), Good (23). 15. Paaaagea in which the Proprium ia repreaented.

Where straw and provender for camels is mentioned (Gen. xxiv. 25), straw denotes scientific truths of the natural man; provender, goods, 3114. To give straw and provender to camels (ver. 32), denotes instruction in truths and goods, 3146. One said to open his sack, to give provender to his ass (chap. xlii. 27), de- notes observation, followed by reflection upon scientifics, 5495. To give provender to asses denotes instruction concerning good, because proven- der denotes the good of scientifics, and feeding instruction, 5670, com- pare 5576, and see Food, Corn, Produce. PROVIDENCE. 1. Doctrinal Tenets concerning Providence, in series with the Doctrine of Charity and Faith. Providence is the government of the Lord in the heavens and in the earth, and it per- vades all things tnat conduce to the salvation of the human race, 10,773. The divine providence of the Lord extends to the veriest minutire of man's life, 10,774. They who think of the divine provi- dence from worldly things, believe it to be universal and not parti- cular, especially as they see the evil enjoy honours and wealth beyond the good, and also that evil arts are successful ; such do not consider that divine providence has respect to what shall succeed to eternity, 10,775. They who think aright may know that eminence and opulence in the world are not real divine blessings; but that life and happiness in heaven to eternity are such, 10,776. Evil arts are successful because it is a law of order that man should act from reason, and in freedom, and no one can be compelled to good, 10,777. To leave man in freedom to do evil, is to permit (or permission instead of providence), 10,778. Nevertheless a particular providence leads the evil as well as the good, for though it appears that all is from their own prudence, providence is active in permitting and in leading from evil, 10,779. This cannot be comprehended from the lumen of nature, for from that lumen the laws of divine order cannot be known, 10,780. There is prsevidence (foresight), as well as providence ; for good is provided, and evil is foreseen, because good is from the Lord but evil from man, 10,781. 2. Providence treated of in series mth the Doctrine of Influx ; first, because the Lord not only flows into the will and thought of man, but also, at the same time, into many things that happen to him, 6480. There is immediate influx from the Lord, and also mediate influx from the Lord through heaven and the spiritual world, into the veriest minutiae of all things pertaining to man, 6058, 6474 — 6478, 8717. The providence of the Lord acts by influx, and it is universal because in things most singular, 4329, 5122, 5904, 6480—6487, 6490. Several fallacies are opposed to this idea, especially because it is permitted to the evil to attribute all to their own prudence, for the sake of use, 6481, 6484. The Lord governs the world by the evil as well as by the good, leading them by their loves, 6481, 6495. They who think that provi- dence is universal according to the order impressed on the universe at its first creation, are advised to reflect that the subsistence of things is their perpetual existence, thus, that preservation is perpetual creation ; also that the universal cannot exist except by the particulars which enter into it, 6482. The universal is not only dependent on singulars, but it is more and more universal, or more elevated, in the degree that more singulars compose it, 6483. The prudence of man is represented as a mote in the atmosphere, but the providence of the Lord as the universal atmosphere itself, 6485. All accidents as they are called \contingentia] are of providence; also providence acts tacitly and secretly, for if it acted openly men could never be reformed, 6485 end. Descrip- tion of a spirit who had believed that nothing was of providence, but all of his own prudence, and that when heaven flowed into his delight it became hell to him, 6484. Discourse of certain angels concerning pro- vidence, who confirmed that it extends to the veriest minutiae of things, but that it rules them according to its own order, not the order that man proposes to himself, 6486. The same discourse continued, and others speaking who believed in predestination or fate; it is replied that man has freedom, and that things do not follow from necessity; the action of providence being compared to the skill of an architect, who makes his building from materials which are prepared in a very dif- ferent order, 6487. As to predestination it is stated that all are pre- destined to heaven, none to hell, 6488. As to evil, foresight is con- joined with providence; evil is foreseen, and good provided, such evils being continually bent to good, 6489. Unless the providence of the Lord were thus in the most singular of all things man could not be saved, nor indeed live ; for every moment of his life has its series of consequences which reach to eternity, 6490. To illustrate that provi- dence is infinite, the formation of the embryo in the womb is adduced, how every part has reference to what shall follow, and finally to the complete form ; that the same providence is continued after birth in regard to the spiritual life, 6491. Speaking of providence, the author reflects that that the Lord is thp Father of all, and he mentions a discourse with his own deceased father in a dream ; telling him that when a man comes into the exercise of his own judgment the Lord is his father, and he has no longer a natural father as before, 6492. As to fortune or chance, that even this is providence in the ultimate of order, thus, even the throw of dice, for not a hair can fall to the ground without the will of God, 6493, 6494 see Fortune ; Influx (especially 6982, 6985, 6996 concerning mediate influx from the Lord through heaven ; and 7004, 7007, concerning immediate influx, by which influx into the ultimate of order, the Lord holds all things in series and connection). 3. Providence Universal and Particular. The providence of the Lord is universal in virtue of being in things most singular ; how strange that philosophers deem it more sublime to think otherwise, 1919 end. They who attribute all to their own prudence and little or nothing to divine providence, cannot be persuaded that providence is universal for the very reason that it is most particular, for if convinced by the weight of argument, they almost instantly return again to their notion of self- prudence, 2694. Perception is more perfect and universal in the degree that it comprehends particulars and singulars ; so the providence of the Lord, which cannot be universal unless it be in singulars, 4329 end. Aflirmed, therefore, that the divine providence, and also foresight, is in the veriest minutiae of things, and unless it were so the human race would perish, 51 22 end, 5894 end ; further, as to the distinction of fore- VOL. II. X 944 PRO PRO 945 sight and providence, 5155, 5195, cited below (5) ; passages in series, 7007, 8478. That the Lord governs all things by divine truth pro- ceeding from him, not like a king in the world, but as only God can govern, who sees all, knows all, and provides all from eternity to eter- nity, 8717. How difficult it is for men in the world to comprehend these things, 8717- 4. Distinction between Permission and Providence, The Lord per- mits evil and the punishment of evil, but does not provide either, nothing but good being from him, and the permission of evil for the sake of good, 592. The Lord foresees and sees all and every particular thing, and provides and disposes all and every particular thing ; but some things from permission, some from admission, some from leave, some from good pleasure, some from will, 1755, 2447 ; see below 9940. The spiritual angels perceive manifestly whether a thing' be from the will of the Lord, or from leave, or from permission, 1384 end. Whatever is from the Lord's will and good pleasure— much that is from leave— and s'ome things that are of permission, are from laws of order as to good ; other contingencies are from laws of order as to truth, ill. 2447. Evils which are attributed to the Lord come to pass from permission, thus, that one devil in hell punishes and torments another ; yet these permissions are from laws of order as to truth sepa- rate from good, 2447. When permission of evil is attributed to the Lord it is not to be understood that he concurs in what he permits ; thus in temptations, his only concurrence is in leading man so as to deliver him from evil and lead'him to good, 2768, ilL 3854, 3869, cited below (5). The permission of evil by the Lord, thus of hell and the torments of the damned therein, is not as the permission of one willing it, but of one not willing it, who, nevertheless, cannot bring aid ; this from the urgency and resistance of the very end of providence, which is the salvation of the whole human race, 7877 end. Whatever exists is from the First and Supreme, thus from the Lord, because the all of life is from him; nevertheless, evils and falses are not from the Lord, •because not from above, ill. 9128. Whatever is from the Lord is more immediately or more remotely from him, in this order: 1. From will; 2. From good pleasure; 3. From leave; 4. From permission: such are the degrees of divine influx and reception, 9940. In all these degrees the arcana of wisdom concerning divine providence, far exceeds human understanding; but the arcana of permission are few compared with those of leave, good pleasure, and will, 9940 end. That leave to man to do evil is permission, which permission is necessary that he may be in freedom, and his freedom necessary that he may be disposed to receive good, 10,777—10779 cited above (1). 5. Distinction between Foresight (Prcevidence) and Providence. The Lord has foresight and providence ; foresight in respect to man, that he may be in freedom; providence in respect to the Lord that he may rule that freedom, ill. 3854. To hear, in the supreme sense, denotes provi- dence, as to see in the supreme sense denotes prsevidence; br. ill. what is meant by the Lord seeing from eternity to eternity, and providing from eternity to eternity, 3869. Prsevidence has reference to evil which the Lord foresees ; providence to good, which he provides, br. ill. 5 1 55, 5195, 6951. Where there is foresight, there is also providence, for the one cannot be supposed without the other; but prcevidence or foresight is not predicated of good, because good is in the divine, and exists from the divine, 5195, 6951. 6. Providence in the Regeneration of Man ; that it disposes goods and truths in order, and so leads man that domestic good is the means of introduction to genuine good, &c., 3556. All the conjunction of good with truth, and of truth with good in man, is provided by the Lord, whose providence is especially operative to effect such conjunction, ill. 395 1 . The Lord leads man by his affections, and bends him to good by a tacit providence, that he may be in freedom, 4364; the same thing called the invisible action of providence, and ill. 5508. Providence in respect to evil is nothing but its direction and determination to a less evil, and so far as possible to good, 5155, compare 5195 cited below (5) ; how this is done in temptations when infernal spirits intend evil, 6574. If the providence of the Lord in man's regeneration did not extend to the veriest minutiae of things, or were remitted for the shortest moment, man would perish; this, because his state is filled with innu- merable particulars, every one of which is fraught with consequences, extending in series to eternity, 5122, further ill. 5195. The number of providential effects concurring in every moment of man's life is incre- dible; this because providence extends to the particulars and singulars ; and to most singulars, from the first moment of life to eternity, 5894 end; ill. 6491; cited 8478. The providence of the Lord does not respect temporal things but eternal, and it is according to eternal ends that men in the world are rich or poor; to the good also, whom honours and riches would injure, contentment without them is given, 8717 end. Marvellous things are mentioned of the divine providence, as involved in the successive states of instruction and regeneration, 10,225. 7. The Stream of Divine Providence. They are in the stream of divine providence who have faith in the Lord, and attribute all to him ; with such also everything that occurs conduces to eternal happiness ; this, because divine providence extends to the particulars and singulars of all things, 8478. They who confide in themselves, and ascribe all things to their own prudence, are not in the stream of providence, but in the opposite, 8478. The two cases further ill. 8480; especially 10,409 cited in Proprium (11). 8. That Contingencies or Accidents^ so called^ are from Providence, ill. 5508, 6493, 6494. See Fortune, Prudence. 9. To Provide, to do, to be with another, ^c, by which Providence is denoted. To be with any one, predicated of the Lord, denotes his divine providence; for to provide is to be at hand, and to be defended from evils, 4549. God doing, denotes providence, because all that he does involves in it the eternal and infinite, br. ill. 5264, 5503. To know [cognoscere^ is predicated both of foresight and providence ; because to foresee is to know from eternity to eternity, and to provide is to do accordingly, 5309. To provide or give bread, denotes sustenance of the spiritual life, by good flowing in from the internal, 6128. To say, predicated of Jehovah, denotes foresight and providence, br. ill. 6951. To keep or guard denotes providence, because the Lord pro- vides and leads to good; also praevidence, because unless he foresaw evil he could not guard from it, 9304. 10.

PROVINCES. See Heaven (5, 7), Man (32).

Provision loaded upon asses denotes truths collated into scientifics, 5492. To buy provision is to appropriate truth, 6114. See Corn, Food, Produce. PROVOKE. See to Vex, Anger. PRUDENCE [prudentia]. Certain spirits described in a dark chamber, who were such as attributed all things to their own prudence, 949; see below 6484. Prudent care attributed to those who are in good, lest the good of charity should be violated, 2356, 2364. Remarks on the state of unbelief of those who ascribe all to their own prudence, and do not acknowledge a divine providence, 2694. Men think it pru- dent, for the sake of society, &c., to look, to speak, and to act other- wise than they think and feel ; but they who did so in the age of the celestial church, were cast out of society as devils, 3573. Exhortation to prudence because of false teachers and hypocrites in the church, cited in the words of the Lord, 3900. Prudence and circumspection in exter- nals, denoted by the same words cited in the preceding reference, " Be ye prudent as serpents," 6398. A dissembHng which has good for its end, whether it be good to the neighbour, to one's country, or to the church, is prudence ; but if evil be the end, it is craft and hypocrisy, 3993 near the end; compare 6655 cited below. The prudent and the foolish, in the parable of the ten virgins denote, respectively, those who are in truths in which is good, and those who are in truths without good ; the whole parable ex, 4638. The prudence of man corresponds to the providence of the Lord ; but in the text here explained, that which is from providence is to be understood as not from prudence, 5664. Description of a spirit who believed that nothing was of provi- dence, but all of man's own prudence ; that he wished for no heaven but one of his own forming ; but when heaven flowed into his delight, that it became hell to him, 6484. The evil call their craft by the name of prudence, but such prudence within the church communicates with hell ; those who are truly of the church utterly abhor it, and would desire, if possible, their thoughts to be openly manifested to every one, 6655. They who are most firmly persuaded that all things are of their own prudence, and especially those who have applied themselves to rise above others, are of all persons most addicted to magical arts in the other life, 6692. Prudence in a good sense, indicated in the passage where Moses is said to look this way and that way before he slew the Egyptian, br, 6760. Man's own prudence is like a mote in the atmos- phere, but divine providence respectively like the whole atmosphere itself, 7007. Remarks on those who confide in their own prudence, who reason against belief in providence because they see the evil in external prosperity, and do not consider that providence regards eternal ends ; passages cited concerning providence, 7007, 8717, 10,409. Cunning, dissembling, hypocrisy, and all the arts of what is called prudence in our day produce internal deformity, and destroy the internal life; from experience of the appearance of spirits, 8250.

In hell they delight to punish and torment one another, which they have the art to accomplish far beyond what is possible in the body, 695, 1322; see below 957, 967. There are various kinds of punishment in the other life, in general there are punishments by laceration, discerption, by the vail, 955. The punishment of laceration described, among the subjects of which are certain malignant women; that it is continued until they become as a rag, 956. The various punishments of discerption or rending asunder, how they are inflicted, and on what characters, 957 — 959, 961. Another kind of punishment is that of conglutination, the torment of which is horrible, and the more those who undergo desire to separate the more strongly they are bound, 960. There is also a punishment of discerption as to the thoughts, like a conflict of the inte- rior with the exterior, accompanied with interior torment, 962. One of the most frequent punishments is that of the vail, induced by phantasy, this is experienced by those who see the truth and are kept from acknowledgment by the love of self, 963. One mode of punishment by the vail is like being wrapped in a sheet, the endeavour to get free, and the continued wrapping, producing desperation, 964. The punishment of circumrotation, and that they who suff*er it were accustomed to arti- fices, deceit, and lies, 5188. The spirits who punish by discerptiou have said it so delights them, they could go on punishing to eternity ; angels, however, though they cannot remit punishments, are present to moderate them, 957 end, 967. Punishments in the other life are not suffered for hereditary evils but for actual evils, and unless they were permitted those who suffer them would have to be detained in some hell to eternity, for otherwise they would infest the good, 966, 967.* All punishment and torment is turned into good, and into some use by the Lord; but punishment itself is from evil, and is inherent in it, 696. Infernals cannot be tormented by remorse of conscience, for they have had none, all who have conscience being among the happy, 965; for other punishments and the state of life in particular hells, see Hell (3). That infernals cannot desist from evil unless compelled by punish- ments, the pain of which exceeds the delight of doing the evil, 7188, further ill. 7280. 2. That Evil punishes itself, and anything to the contrary is so written from the appearance ouly, 689, 696, 967, 1311, 1683, 185 7i * See errata at the end of this volume. 948 PUR r PUR 949 JLs mis f,^'^,' "^^.^'/^'t '223. 8226, 9048, and other pas- Kn ™n7.i ^ ^"uT '"'•' '" ^^"' (^)- Not only does evil contain narv mi /*° ; but as soon as any infernal spirit exceeds his ordi- BlanaZ „f tK° 7'' P"''',^'""^ ^P^t^ "« «' hand. 5798.

The east wind so often named denotes influx by which phantasies, or evil spirits who are the cause of them, are dispersed, sh, 842. The east wind thus understood is itself from companies of spirits, and after the evil spirits are dispersed it produces a state of most serene peace, 842; see below 7679. The east denotes the Lord, and hence celestial love; a mountain in the east, charity, 1248, 1249, sh. 1250, 1593, 1837. The east denotes charity from the Lord, 1289—1291. The east denotes Jehovah himself as to love, and not only so but he really is the east, 1451 ; see below 2441, 3708. When predicated of the Lord sojourning in the world, the east denotes his internal man, which was divine, 1 593. The east denotes those who were, and also celestial love; the west, those who will be, who are not in love, 1605. The first time of the Church is denoted by the east or day-dawn, its last time by the west or close of day, 1837. The sun and the east equally denote the Lord; the sun's rising, his presence, or advent, 2441. Land of the east denotes the good of faith, or charity towards the neighbour, which is nothing else but a life according to the precepts of the Lord; hence they who had knowledges of good and truth are called sons of the east, and the wise; also that the land of the east was Aram or Syria, 3249, 3762, 10,177. East and west denote states of good; north and south, states of truth, ill. andM. at length, 3708. The east denotes the Lord, and the good of love and charity from him; this, because he is the sun of heaven, whose light is intelligence and wisdom; passages cited, 3708, 3900, 5097; see below 9668. The east wind is used to express a means of destruction, because it was a dry, tempestuous wind, very destructive in its effects; hence its application to express the efl^ect of divine power ; also because influx from the Lord loses its grateful character when it falls into hell, because there it is turned into the opposite of love, and produces torment, 7679. The cessation of influx from the Lord (as described by the east wind), is denoted by the west wind, or wind of the sea, which is its opposite, 7702. The wise men, or sons of the east, who came with offerings to the Lord, were of the ancient church, and were acquainted with the sci- ence and wisdom of the olden time, 3249, 3762, 9293. The situation of temples, east and west, was derived from representatives known in ancient times, 9642 end; that of the tabernacle br. ex. 9668. The entrance to the tabernacle was at the eastern side, because it is by the good of love that the Lord enters heaven, sh. 9668. In heaven, the east is where the Lord constantly appears as a sun ; in a line from east to west are those who are in the good of love ; to the south, those who are in the light of truth ; to the north, those who are in shade, 9668. The Lord is the east, or the morning because he is the sun of heaven, and this sun never sets but is always in its rising, 10,134. 3. West [occidens]. The west denotes obscurity of state, and this in contrast to the east which denotes clearness, 1453. The setting of the sun, or its westing, denotes the time and state of the church before its consummation, 1837. The setting of the sun, or evening, denotes obscurity, predicated of intelligence as to truth, and of wisdom as to good, ill. and sh. 3693. In a more opposite sense, the setting of the sun denotes the state of those who are in no charity and faith, which is predicated as false and evil, 3693. From east to west is predicated of state as to good; the west good in obscurity; in the opposite sense, a QUA 953 fnH f« li?7^' *^- ^708. The east denotes the Lord, and the good of love and faith from him ; the west, a state in which these cease to be thus no acknowledgment of the Lord, no good of love and faith, 3900! Th^ tunes of the day from sunrise to sunset denote states and their muta- tions ; sunset when the state predicated ceases, 8615. Sunset denotes thltnJ f 1 -'"^ the delights of external loves, 9213. East denotes the good of love m its rising, or with those who are in clear perception ; west, the good of love m its setting, or, with those who are in obscur^ perception, 9642 end, 9653. The west denotes good in obscurity, and good IS m obscurity when in the natural man, 9755. When the sea is put for the west, it denotes scientific truths, ill, and sh. 9755. The west m heaven exists from what is opposite [ex adverse] to the sun of heaven or the Lord, and where somewhat dusky appears in place of the sun of this world when it is thought of, 9755. ^ ^ 4. South or Mid-day [meridies]. The south denotes a state of life predicated of wisdom and intelligence from the Lord, ill. and ^IhsS belL^'^OO SI 04 Tv! ^*g":S^^ g^^d' «lto light, truth, 1458; see InXi ' }^ ' T^^ '^"^^ "^'"^^"^ ^ ^^^^d s^^te of the interiors, and there are two such states, one into which man is introduced by the celestial loves of infancy, the other by knowledges, 1548.

North [septentrio]. The north is put for darkness to indicate a state devoid of truth, 1326 end. The north denotes a state of ignorance Church, that is, who are m darkness as to the truths of faith, also lGnro'Jo''''^J '" '"u" ' ^}^ '°"^h' those who are within the church, 1 G05, 9642. The north and south are predicated of state as to truth !f /''??'/.? obscure state in a good sense; and a dark state, thus a state ot falsity, m the opposite sense, sh. 3708. Land of the north denotes ignorance of good, caused by ignorance of truth; thus, in a fu^^'l'^ni the upright Gentiles with whom a new church can be insti- tuted, 3/08, 9642. In the opposite sense, the north denotes both the false from evil already existing, and the false which produces evil ; the one signified by Babel the other by Gog and Magog, 3708. The north denotes the sensual and corporeal part of man from which evil springs, and the end of the church when the sensual predominates, 8408. Land ot the north, denotes obscurity predicated of state as to faith, 9042. liy the north is meant distance from the interiors, consequently, where Ii 954 QUA QUA 955 truth is in its shade, and of this distance length is predicated, 9642. The north denotes the exteriors where truth is in obscurity, thus the exteriors of heaven and of the external man, 9648. 6. Passages in the Word, A garden planted by Jehovah God in Eden, eastward (Gen. ii. 8), denotes the intelligence of the celestial man, which flows in by love from the Lord, 98, 101. Cain said to dwell in the land of Nod towards the east of Eden (chap. iv. 1 6), de- notes the state of those who formerly were celestial, now without truth and good, 397, 398.

Abram said to pitch tent in a mountain east of Bethel, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east (chap. xii. 8), denotes a state of the Lord in his boyhood progressing in celestial love, but as yet in obscurity, 1449 — 1453. Abram afterwards journeying towards the south (ver.* 9 and chap. xiii. 1), denotes his further progress now in a state of light, 1456—1458, 1548. His journeying still further described «* from the south even to Bethel " (chap. xiii. 3), denotes from the light of intelligence into the light of wisdom, 1555. Lot said to journey from the east, when he parted from Abram (ver. 1 1), denotes the state of the Lord as to the separation of the external man from the internal or divine, 1593. Abram commanded to look northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward, after the separation of Lot (ver. 14), de- notes the state of universal perception into which the Lord came when the cupidities of the external man were removed, 1605. The sun in the west, or going down before Abram* s vision [ad occidendum, chap. xv. 1 2], denotes the approaching end of the church when there is no longer any charity, 1836, 1837. Abram said to journey towards the land of the south, now on his way to Gerar (chap. xx. 1), denotes the progres- sion of the Lord in the goods and truths of faith, 2500.

The promise given to Jacob, Thou shalt break forth to the west (ad mare—to the sea), and to the east, and to the north, and to the south (chap, xxviii. 14), denotes infinite extension predicated of good and truth respectively, thus, all states of good and truth, 3708. Jacob said to go towards the land of the sons of the east (chap. xxix. 1), denotes elevation to celestial truths, here called the truths of love, 3762. The quarters mentioned in the description of the tabernacle; twenty boards for the south side, twenty for the north (Ex. xxvi. 18, 20), deuote sustaining good, where truth is in light, and where it is in obscurity, 9641, 9642, 9648, 9649. The two legs or side toward the sea, or the west (ver. 22), denotes where good is in obscu- rity, 9653. The golden candlestick to be set over against the table towards the south side in the tabernacle (ver. 35), denotes the illumina- tion of the Lord's spiritual kingdom by divine truth in its light, 9684. The table with the shew-bread at the northern side (ver. 35), denotes good in obscurity, 9685. Hangings for each side of the court, south and north (chap, xxvii. 9, 11), denotes the truth of faith as received in the ultimate heaven, some in light, some in obscurity, 9742, 9750. Hangings for the breadth of the court on the west side (seaward), and for the breadth of the court on the east (verses 12, 13), denote scien- tific truths in the ultimate heaven, and the good of love, 9755, 9758.

RACHEL, one of the wives of Jacob, denotes the affection of inte- rior truth; Leah, the affection of exterior truth, br, 3758, br, 3782, ill, 3793. Rachel is called the lesser or younger daughter of Laban; and Leah the elder, because the affection of interior truth is later in deve- lopment than the affection of exterior, 3819. Rachel is called fair in form and fair in aspect from the spiritual quality of interior truth com- pared with exterior, 3821. Rachel denotes interior truth, or its affec- tion; her sons, interior truths, namely, such as are most nearly under the intuition of the rational, 3907, ill, 4342—4343; compare 4607 cited below. In the supreme or genuine sense, predicated of the Lord, Rachel denotes the human affection hereditary from the mother, br. ill, 4593. Rachel and her sons denote the internal of the church; Leah and her sons the external, 5469 ; compare 409, 422. Jacob on his way to the house of Laban, and enquiring concerning him, &c., denotes the natural man in a state of elevation, and his inquisition into the origin of charity, 3760—3762, 3776. Rachel with her father's sheep said to come into the field, denotes the affection of interior truth, and interior doctrinals derived from good, 3782, 3783, 3793, 3794. Jacob when he saw her, said to roll the stone from the well that the flock might be wa- tered, denotes the opening of the Word, and instruction from its interior truths, 3798, 3799. Jacob said to kiss Rachel, and then to weep, de- notes love towards interior truths, and conjunction from love, also the ardour of love, 3800, 3801. Jacob said to tell Rachel of his affinity, and she said to run and tell her father, denotes mutual acknowledgment predicated of good and truth, 3803, 3804.

RAIN \_pluvia]. Rain, immediately afterwards called vapour or mist, in the account of the creation (Gen. ii. 5, 6), denotes the tranquil- ity of peace flowing from the internal man into the external, 90 — 93; see below 8416. To rain, in the account of the flood (chap. vii. 4), denotes temptation and also vastation, 729; see below 739. In the genuine sense, rain denotes blessing; in the opposite sense, cursing and damna- tion, sh, 2444; cited 7553. Sulphur and fire said to be rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah, denotes the opening of hell with those who are in the evils of self-love and of falses therefrom, 2443 — 2446. A rain of hail in Egypt (Ex. ix. 23), denotes falses destroying the truths of the church in the natural mind, 7553 — 7576, 7580; reference in Ps. cv. 32, 2445. In the proximate sense, raining denotes influx, and hence blessing which descends with divine good from heaven; bread made to rain from heaven, therefore (Ex. xvi. 4), denotes celestial good flowing in, 8416 ; see Dew, Manna (especially 8455). No rain upon the earth during the time of famine, predicated of Judah (Jer. xiv. 4), denotes no influx from heaven, 10,570. An overflowing or inundating rain (Ezek. xiii. II); storm and rain, (Is. iv. 6), denote the desolation of the false, damnation, 739, 2445. Pestilence, and blood, and inundating rain, denounced against Gog (Ezek. xxxviii. 22), denote falses from evil causing damnation because opposed to the truths and goods of the church; other passages concerning hail, 6r. ex. 7553. See Flood, Hail, Moses (12), Hand (2). RAINBOW [iris]. The state of the spiritual man when regene- rated, is represented by the rainbow, for which reason it became the sign of a covenant between God and man, ill, 1042, 1043, 1053. The angels who appear with rainbows are those who have been regenerated by water and the spirit ; the celestial angels are those who have been regenerated by fire, 1042. The bow in these representative appearances becomes more beautiful in proportion as the will of man is more remote, 1042. The appearance of rainbows, or halos, about spirits, is produced from the proprium, into which innocence from the Lord has been insinuated, 1043, 868. It is the sphere of man's life that is seen vari- \ VOL. II. 960 RAM REA 961 ously coloured like the rainbow, 1053. The rainbow heaven described, appearance of a great rainbow, and smaller images of it, 1623 — 1625, 4528. The quality of such rainbows shown to the author even in their least forms, by analogy with the greater, 1624, 1625. That the rain- bow about the throne of God, denotes truths pellucid from good, 5313; and that the rainbow seen by Ezekiel denotes divine wisdom and intel- ligence which are of divine truth from the Lord, 8427. See Noah (9), Man (pp. 663 — 664), Light (3), Colours, Sphere. RAM [ariea]. Rams are enumerated among animals of the flock, which denote afifections of good and truth in the internal man, 2805, 5913, 8937, 9391. A calf, a she-goat, and a ram, each of three years old, to be sacrificed by Abram (Gen. xv. 9), denote the celestial, exte- rior and interior, and the celestial-spiritual, 1823 — 1825. A ram caught in a thicket, and offered up by Abraham in place of his son Isaac (chap, xxii. 13), denotes the spiritual of the human race, and, in the supreme sense, the divine spiritual of the Lord ; the liberation of the former, and their sanctification from the divine human, 2805, 2830, 2833, 2834. Sheep denote goods; rams, truths of good; the rams of thy flock I have not eaten, said by Jacob (chap. xxxi. 38), denotes that he had not appropriated such truths to himself, 4170. Two hundred ewes and twenty rams, among the presents that Jacob sent forward for Esau (chap, xxxii. 14), denote divine goods and truths, 4263. One young bullock and two whole (unblemished) rams, in the ceremony of conse- cration (Ex. xxix. 1), denote purification, first of the natural man ; secondly of the spiritual or internal; bread unleavened, in the same sacrifice, denotes purification of the celestial in the inmost, 9990 — 9992. The particulars concerning the sacrifice of the two rams (i6., verses 15 — 35), fully ex.; first, that the ram denotes the good of innocence and charity in the internal man, 10,042, and following num- bers. A bullock oficred in sacrifice represented the purification of the external man; a ram, the purification of the internal; a lamb, of the inmost; general explanation of the burnt-offerings and sacrifices, 10,042, 10,132. The two rams differently sacrificed, represented two states of the regeneration; the first, when truths are implanted and conjoined to good; the second, when good proceeds by truth, 10,057. The first ram (verses 10 — 18), represented the first state of the Lord's glorifica- tion ; the second, or the ram of fillings (translated, ram of the conse- cration, verses 19 — 35), his second state; to which the two states of regeneration correspond, 10,060. The whole ram burnt upon the altar (ver. 18), represented the union of the divine good of divine love with the internal human in the Lord, 10,052. The right arm of the ram of fillings, denotes inmost good, ill. 10,075. Rams denote the good of innocence and charity in the internal man because they are the male of sheep, and by sheep and lambs are meant those who are principled in charity and innocence, 1 0,076. The ram of fillings is said to be for Aaron, and it was a representative of the divine power of the Lord, pro- ceeding by divine truth from his divine good ; its communication and reception in the heavens, 10,076, 10,088; for other passages of the Word in which rams are mentioned, see 2830, 10,042. RAMAIL See Gibeah. RAMESES, where Pharaoh made the family of Joseph dwell (Gen. xlvii. 12), was a tract of country, the best in Goshen, and it denotes the t 4- i inmost of the spiritual state established in the natural mind, 6104. The sons of Israel first journeying from Rameses (where they had dwelt, here translated Raamses), to Succoth (Exod. xii. 37), denotes the first state of separation when the spiritual are delivered from infestation, 7972. See Moses (13), to Journey (p. 45). Pithom and Raamses, treasure cities which they were compelled to build for Pharaoh (Exod. i. 11), denote the quality of doctrines from falsified truths, 6661 — 6662. RAMPARTS, also walls, gates, bars (Lam. ii. 8 — 9 ; Isa. xxvi. 1 — 2), denote doctrinals, 402. RANSOM. See Expiation, Propitiation. RAPHATH. SeeGoMER. RAPHAEL, and other names, do not belong to any particular angel ; but denote angelic functions, and the divine of the Lord as to that function, 8192. RAPINE [rapina]. See Spoil. RATIOCINATION.

The Rational Part of Man [rationale^. Wisdom, intelligence, reason, and science, are not from man but from the Lord, 124. In the rational there is some resemblance to intelli- gence and wisdom, but intelligence and wisdom cannot really be predi- cated of it, 265 ; see below 1588. The true order of life is thus described, — from the Lord wisdom, from wisdom intelligence, from intelligence reason, and by reason the scientifics of the memory are vivified, 121, 657. The rational pertains to the external man, and it acts as a medium between the internal and external, unless it consent to evil, in which case it separates between them, 268; ill. 978 cited. The rational part is still the medium of influx with the evil, and such influx from the Lord causes that man can reason and reflect, 657. The rational is intelligence, but predicated of the external man, and when receptive of the celestial-spiritual from the Lord it is called a garden, a paradise, 1588. The external man consists of three parts, called the rational, or interior, the scientific, or exterior, and the sensual, or out- most, 1589. The rational is nothing in itself, unless affection flow into it from the internal man, and give it activity; in which case, it conjoins the external to the internal, 1589. The interior man is the medium between the internal and external, and is called the rational ; its communication with either part br. ill. 1702; further ill. 1707, 1732. Everyone has an internal man, a rational man, which is y2 a 962 REA ^■» l! it the medium or middle part, and an external, 1889, 1940, 2181, 218:^. The rational in itself is also distinguished into internal, external, and middle; also, the natural, 4570. The intellectual, the rational, and the scientific, are most distinct, 1904, cited below (8). The existence of the rational is from the influx of intellectual truth, and it is not genuine unless goods and truths be conjoined, 1901. 2. The Offices or Uses of the Rational, are to render the external man obedient to the internal, ill. 1944. To this end, the rational in its turn must be subservient to the spiritual and celestial, 2541, 2542. How the purification of the rational is represented, 2632, see below (43). 3. The Age at which Rationality commences, ill, 2280. See Age, Education. 4. That Man would be horn Rational, if order were not destroyed in him, 1902, cited below (5); further ill. 2557; and see Evil (2). 5. How the Rational is conceived and born. Summary explanation of the conception and birth of the rational, first by influx from the internal man into the life of the affection of sciences in the external ; afterwards, by the influx of good and truth from the Lord, of which influx the internal man is the medium, 2093 end. The good of the rational is from divine good, yet the truth of the rational is not from divine truth, but from sciences and knowledges into which good flows, ill. 2524. The rational therefore is conceived and born from the inter- nal as a father, and from the affection of sciences in the external as a mother, 1895; 1902, 1910 cited below; further ill. 2093, but especially 2557. Life itself is in the internal man, the influx of which is into the knowledges and sciences of the external, by means of affection, and by this influx the rational is produced, 1 900. If hereditary evil did not impede, the rational would be born immediately from the marriage of good and truth in the internal man; and by the rational, the scientific would be produced according to the order of influx, ill. 1902, ill. 2557 » The rational is now formed inversely by sciences and knowledges acquired sensually; thus, man is miraculously made rational by the Lord, not according to original order, 1902. The affection of sciences and knowledges gives, as it were, a body to the rational; the life of the internal man received into which is its soul, br. ill. 1910. The rational mind could never be formed, except by scientifics and knowledges; but these have use of some kind for their end, and such as the use is, such is the rational, ill. 1964; compare 1909, 1940. Understand, that the rational is not born from mere sciences and knowledges, but from the affection of them; passages cited. 3030. 6. JVho are and are not Rational. The rational man described as the medium by which the external is united to the internal; ill, also that men are not rational merely because they can reason, 1 944. They are not rational who have no conscience, for the very function of the rational is to think good and truth, and be averse to all that is evil and false, 1914 end, 1944, 4156. The rational man is most distinct, and conscience first exists when the natural is subjugated by the rational, and becomes like to it, ill. 2183. The truly rational man is none other than the regenerate man, whose affections and thoughts are arranged in an order corresponding to that of heaven, br. ill. 2556, 3288; compare 6240 cited below (18). By what successive openings man becomes rational; or how, on the contrary, he renders himself irrational, ill. REA 963 5126. The signs by which the rational and the irrational may be known respectively, 5128. The law of influx when man is rational, and the stoppage of influx when not rational, ill. 5828. 7. That a New Rational is given by Regeneration ; its state before and after ill. and examples adduced, 2657. But that man would be born rational if order were not destroyed in him, 1902 cited above (5). 8. Intellectual Truth, Rational Truth, and Scientific Truth, de- scribed in order, 1904. Intellectual truth is internal (where it makes one with good), rational truth is middle, and scientific truth is external, 1901, 1904. Intellectual truth is said to be childless until the rational is produced, because it has no medium by which it can flow with truth into the external, 1901. Intellectual truth continually approaches by the internal way, that it may meet with knowledges insinuated by the external, in order that the rational may be born, 1901. The first con- ceived rational makes light of intellectual truth, because it does not apprehend it, ill. by examples, 1911, 1936; see below (9). No one but the Lord ever thought from intellectual truth, not even the angels of the third heaven who think from the interior rational, 1914. The fathers of the most ancient church, who had perception, thought from the interior rational ; the fathers of the ancient church, who had not perception, but conscience, from the exterior rational; while they who have no conscience, think from the sensual and corporeal, 1914 cited above (6). 9. That the Rational cannot apprehend the Divine. Rational truth, or the human rational, which is such as to truth only, cannot appre- hend what is divine, ill, by examples, 2196, 2203, 2209. The rational, if consulted, would say that the divine could be in the human of every one which is not true, ill. 2520 ; 2531, cited below (12). Truth divine illustrates rational truths, or the appearances of truth which form the rational mind, and only apparent truths thus illustrated can be predi- cated of the rational, 3368. The spiritual sejjarate the divine from the rational, and are willing that the doctrines of faith should be simply believed; this, because they have not perception, and therefore cannot perceive how divine truth can at the same time be rational truth ill. 3394. 1 0. That the Rational is in Appearances of Good and Truth only 2516, 2520, 2524, 2654, 2719, 2723, 3207, 3362, 3368. How beaul tifully represented by Rebecca when she came veiled to Isaac, 3207. And that the same thing is meant, whether called rational truths, appearances of truth, or celestial and spiritual truths, 3368; see the same number cited below (30), and see Appearance. 11. That there is an Affiection of Rational Truth, and an Affection of Scientific Truth, which are most distinct from each other, ill. 2503; cited, with other passages concerning the rational, 3030. 12. Good and Truth predicated of the Rational; that they are as brother and sister respectively, br, ill, 2508, 2524, 2556. In the rational, truth is chief, yet the affection of good is contained in truth as its soul, otherwise it is not the genuine rational, 2072, 2180, ill. 2189 cited below; especially 3030 cited below (29). The affection of good, predicated of the rational, is really the affection of truth, because the rational mind is formed from knowledges, and knowledges of good are truths, 2072. The marriage of good and truth pervades every part ! ■ ■ < ■ 964. REA of man, the natural as well as the rational, hr. ill. 2184. The life of rational good, or charity, is according to the quality and quantity of truth implanted in it, and by which it is formed ; in this sense truth is said to predominate in the rational, 2189. Life is not in truth, but in good, and truth is the recipient of life, because of good, 2189, ill. 2388; see below 2531. The man whose rational mind is occupied with truth only, even though it be the truth of faith, is morose, impatient, unmerciful, and unyielding, ill, 1949—1951, 1964. When the rational is formed from good, on the contrary, the man is of a clement, mer- ciful, and yielding disposition, ill. 1950. That rational truth is not apparent when in good, because it becomes as good, and good is trans- lucent through it, 2190. That the initiation of truth into good is done in the rational mind, 3108 ; see below (29). And that the divine is received in the rational according to truths therein, thus, differently in diflTerent persons; by the divine, understand the divine human, 2531. 13. Inferior Rational Truths named, which are otherwise called external appearances of truth, 3417; see above (10). 14. That Rational Truths are not Knowledges, but are contained in Knowledges, 3391. 15. That the Human begins in the Inmost of the Rational, and that it extends to the external, 2106, 2194, 3161, 3175; see also 3020 cited below (21); see also Human, Man, and the signification of Laughter, especially, 2072, 2216. 16. That Rational Truths pertain to the Interior Memory, and from these are the ideas of thought which are the means of communi- cation between spirits from all parts of the Universe, 2471, 2476; fur- ther ill. 4038, 4247, 9394, 9723. The rational is distinct from the natural, and the scientifics of the exterior memory serve as objects to the rational or interior, 3020, 3679, 9394, 9723; seriatim passages 9922. That the higher can discern whatever is in the lower, but not contrariwise, ill, 2654. That rational truths rarely come to the percep- tion of any one living in the body, except as a kind of light illuminating the natural mind, 3057. See Memory (3). 17. That Rational Truths are as the Failings or Clothing of Spiritual, ill, 2576; see below (18). 18. The Celestial, Spiritual, Rational, and Natural, in order. The celestial and spiritual in man, correspond to the angelic heaven; the rational to the heaven of angelic spirits ; the interior sensual to the heaven of spirits, ill. 978; see below 5145. Genuine goods and truths (called the celestial and spiritual), form the internal man ; rationals, the interior or middle; and sensuals (not of the body, but elevated from bodily things), the external, 978, The order of succession is described as celestial, spiritual, rational, scientific, and sensual, which are subor- dinate in this order one to another, 2541. Hatiohal truths are as the vailings or clothings of spiritual, ill, 2576. The spiritual exists in the rational, and they little differ; also, the differences among the spiritual are simply according to the quality of reason and of life therefrom, 3264; see below 4980. Illustrated, how the spiritual acquires existence in the rational, and hence the state of the rational before and after regeneration, 2657. The celestial and spiritual are predicated both of the rational and natural, from the reception of good and truth, 4570, 4980. The celestial-natural is good in the natural corresponding to REA 965 T ri» good in the rational, 4980. The celestial-rational is good contained in divine truth received in the rational mind, 4980. The spiritual in the rational is divine truth received by the rational, 4980. The interior rational is the first degree in mau corresponding to the third or the celestial heaven ; the exterior rational is the second degree correspond- ing to the second, or the spiritual heaven ; the interior natural is the third degree, corresponding to the ultimate or first heaven, which is the heaven of good spints; the exterior natural or sensual is the fourth de- gree, in which mau is, 5145. The celestial and spiritual dwell eminently in the interior rational, nevertheless they flow into the exterior rational, and even into the natural, br, ill, 5150. By the celestial is meant divine good flowing in; by the spiritual, divine truth, 5150. By the rational and natural is meant the man himself as formed to receive the celestial and spiritual ; but by the rational is meant his internal, and by the natural his external, 5150. It is the intellectual part of the internal man that is called the rational, and the same of the external man that is called the natural, 6240; compare 7130. The rational is predicated of the celestial man, who has a perception of good, and from good of truth ; but not of the spiritual man, because he only knows truth by instruction, and is properly called interior natural, 6240. The celestial internal is in the rational, but the spiritual in the natural, 6240. 1 9. The necessary Combat of the Natural tvith the Rational, Unless rational good and natural good make a one, so that conjunction is pre- dicated of them, there can be no perception, 2181. Before the natural and rational are conjoined, man cannot be a whole man, or enjoy the tranquility of peace, for the one combats with the other, ill. 2183. In this combat, either the natural or the rational overcomes ; if the former, the rational man becomes natural ; if the latter, the natural becomes rational, 2183; see below (31). 20. That the Rational has Discernment in the Natural, and can chastise Evil therein, 218S. See Perception, Thought. By com- inunication with the internals, the rational man is able to think of celes- tial and spiritual things, or to look upwards ; but by communication with the external, it looks downwards to corporeal and worldly things, 1702; see below (31). 21. That the Rational Mind is most distinct from the Natural, ill. 3020. To the rational mind appertain such matters of knowledge [cogtiitiva] as are imperceptible to men while in the body, for they are of the interior memory ; also, the all of thought perceptive of what is just and equitable, as well as of truth and good ; and all spiritual affec- tions proper to man, or properly and distinctively human, 3020 ; con- tinued below (32). 22. 2'hat the Doctrine of Faith is Celestial and Spiritual, not from the Rational, 2497, 2510, ill. 2516, ill. 2519, 2531, 2543. It is allow- able, nevertheless, for those who are in the affirmative concerning divine truths, to enter into the doctrinals of faith by scientifics and rational truths ; but not for those who are in the negative, ill. 2568, ill, 2588 ; see below (23). Also, the doctrines of faith for the spiritual church are necessarily invested with appearances of truth from rationals and scien- tifics, br. ill, 2719, 2723. 23. That Truth is to be received rationally, not persuasively without 966 REA doubt; ill. by tlie manner of instruction in the other life, 7298. See Doubt. 24. Reasons and Ideas of Thought. Reasons arc trutlis; but rea- sonings, falses, 1186. Reasons are derived from the interior natural, 5497. Intellectual reasons are predicated of the rational mind; scien- tifics of the natural; also, the former are seen in the light of heaven, the latter in the light of the world, 7130. See Idea, Understanding. 25. Reasoning or Ratiocination; that, with the unregenerate, it takes the place of reason, 977. Mere reasonings concerning the doc- trinals of faith lead into error, ill. and sh. 1071 — 1073, ill. 2371, 4031, 4768, ill. by the men of Sodom, unable to find the door of Lot's house, 2385. Eeason and ratiocination are from scientifics, and hence Egypt is so often named along with Assyria, 1186, 1888 end; the inverse order in this case, 5700. Reasoning from scientifics, by which truth is perverted or falsified, is denoted by whoredom, 1 186. The manner in which truth is falsified by reasons, ill. by examples, 7318. Keason- ings from falsified truths, and reasonings from mere falses, are distinct things, 7351 ; examples of the latter, 7352. To be able to reason is not to be rational, iU. 1944, 3833, 4156, 4214, 10,227. Various fallacies enumerated arising from sensual persuasions and reasonings, 5081, 10,409. 26. Rational Truth without Good, described, 1949. 27. Rational Good merely Human y described, 2204. 28. The Quality of the Rational from Truth implanted in Goody ill. 2189. That its quality is derived from the affection, whether good or evil, that flows into it from the internal man, ill. by colours of objects derived from light, 1589. See Man (7), Life (15). 29. Influx by which the Ratiotial is formed ; in continuation of the citations given above (5). The genuine rational consists of good and truth, 2813. The being of the genuine rational is from good; its exis- tence from truth, ill. 3030. The rational as to good is formed by influx received by an internal way; as to truth by an external way, 3030; compare 2524 cited above (5). By the influx of love, and of the affec- tion of truth from love, into scientifics, truths are made to appear, and are elevated from the natural mind into the rational, 3074. By such influx truths are continually elevated out of the natural, and implanted in the good of the rational; but the process is one of divine wisdom, and almost incomprehensible to man, ill, 3085 — 3086. When truth is appropriated to good in the rational it opens that degree of the mind, and rationalizes man; but when the false is appropriated to evil, it closes the rational mind, and makes man irrational, 3108 end; as to the procedure when truth is initiated and joined to good, 3012 — 3014, 3108, 3110, 3128, 3179, 3206. See Initiation, Good, Truth; and see below (30, 44). 30. Infux by the Rational into the Natural; that it is twofold, by goods and by truths, ill. 1707. Influx by good has place with the regenerate; by truth, with all men, 1707, 1725; see below, 2004. There is no communication of the external with the internal, except by means of the rational, 1732, ill. 3368, cited below. Intellectual truth cannot enter with any truth into the external man, except by means of the rational, 1901. There is a continual influx of life into the rational REA 967 '_ ' m* 7 part, and hereby into the scientifics and knowledges of the external, which this inflowing life arranges in order; and unless the Lord were thus conjoined with man, no one could think, much less become rational, 2004. Truths from the Lord (called truths divine) flow in through the rational mind into the natural, and are thus presented to view as an image of many things seen together in a mirror; to angels, however, they are not so apparent in the natural, but they appear by representations in the world of spirits, 3368, cited 3391. Rational truths flow in with good into the natural; but this is obscure to man, because the distinction between the rational and the natural is not known at all to the unregenerate, and to very few of the regenerate, 4341. See Influx (6). 31. The Regeneration of the Natural by the Rational; in which procedure good is as a father, truth as a mother, and all the goods and truths of the natural man as their offspring, 3285, 3286, 3288, 3299, 3314, 3570, 3573, 3616, 3671, 3677. When the natural man is rege- nerated, he owes his conception to the rational, and thus in order to the spiritual, the celestial, and the divine itself, such being the order of influx, 3304. The rational receives truths before the natural, and this providentially, because it is to be the means of regenerating the natural, 3321 . The rational man is regenerated before the natural, and the latter with much difficulty afterwards, because the natural is nearer to the world and the body, but the rational nearer to the divine, 3321, 3469, 3493, 4612. The good of the rational does not immediately flow into the good of the natural and regenerate it, but mediately by truth, 3509; compare 3570, 3573. Before the natural is regenerated, and thus brought into correspondence with the rational, it is as darkness in which the rational appears to itself unable to see anything, 3493, further ill. 3620, 3622, 3623, 3629. Nevertheless, that the rational has commu- nication both with the external and internal, 1702. See Natural (6), Regeneration. 32. Further, concerning the Life of the Rational in the Natural; see first, 3020 cited above (21). The rational is so distinct from the natural, that it can live a life separate therefrom; not so the natural without the rational, 3498. While man lives in the body it appears to him that the rational lives in the natural, 3498. The rational does not appear to be distinct from the natural, but, indeed, to exist only so far as the natural corresponds to it, 3498 end; see also 4341 cited above (30). In the natural are common or general goods and truths, in the rational their particulars; thus, the natural mind is formed from the particulars of the rational, 3513, 3579; see below 4667. The form of the natural is an image either of heaven or hell, according as goods and truths, or evils and falses, enter into it from the rational, 3513. The rational in the natural is as the soul in the body, and the formation is similar, ill. 3570. Good and truth in the natural are from the rational by influx; thus, from rational good existing inmostly, 3573, 3576, 3579, 3616. Goods and truths from the rational are as seeds, and they are planted in the natural as ground; passages cited, 3671. It is the rational or internal that thinks, but this in the external or natural, and with a difference according as the natural corresponds or not to the rational, 3679. The natural mind communicates with the world bv sen- suals, and with heaven by rationals, thus there is ascent and descent. 968 REA 4009. Three parts or degrees are named, the corporeal, natural, and rational, corresponding to which are goods and truths; their communi- cation br, ill, 4038. The scientifics of the natural man, are the means either of cultivating and perfecting the rational, or of destroying it, ill. 4156. The natural must be regenerated before it can make one with the rational; and to this end in the course of regeneration the rational receives goods and truths before the natural; passages cited 4612. The rational lives by its reception in the natural, and not otherwise; hence the need of regeneration, ill, 4618. The natural lives in subordination under the rational, and if they agree, it becomes the common form of all the particular goods and truths that compose the rational, 4667* Objects of rational sight when they enter the natural mind occupy the interior, and sensuals, the exterior ; also, man is so far rational or sensual as he thinks from the one or the other, ill. 5094; compare 5497. Man proceeds from the sensual to the rational by successive openings from infancy to adult age; ill, how the way is opened or closed, 5126, 5128, 5497. Common truths are received first, next they are filled with particulars, and from the intuition of these by the internal man exists reason or understanding, 6089. See Natural (4), Inter- nal (7), External (2), Good (3, 15), Truth, Regeneration. 33. That the Rational Mind consists of two faculties, Will and Understanding, 3509. See Man (17, 18), Influx (5), Faculty. 34. That the Rational is both Internal and External, 4570. In the interior rational the forms are more perfect, and better accommodated to receive the celestial and spiritual, 5 1 50. The interior forms are so much purer, that they comprehend thousands and thousands of things which appear as one in the exterior, 5707. 35. Two Classes of the Rational described ; those made rational from truth, called the spiritual; and those who are rational from good, called the celestial, 2078, 2085—2087. 36. The Rational predicated of the Lord ; that it was first conceived and born as with another man, but that he afterwards made it divine, in common with the whole human, by his own power, 1893, 2083, 2093. The divine was united to the rational, when to the human essence, because the human begins in the inmost of the rational, 2106, 2194, 2625, 3161; how it was and existed, more especially, 2625. Rational good in the Lord was divine, and therefore different in quality from good in any angel, though described by similar terms, 2189 end. The Lord made his rational divine, as to good, by influx by the internal way; as to truth, by the external, ill. by the similar manner of man's regeneration, because good is the very ground which receives truth, ,3030. See Lord (35, 36. 78). 37. Doctrine concerning the Rational in a Summary, 3030. 38. State of some in the other Life ; Reasoners, Reasonings, ^e. Certain spirits described, who for a time, are deprived of their ration- ality, and Hve as in a dream. 948. Spirits of the skin, who substitute reasoning for all wisdom, and cannot apprehend how there can be any perception of good and truth, 1385, 5555 — 5556. Spirits belonging to the dura mater, also to the external skin of the head; the latter accus- tomed to reason from sensuals concerning spiritual and celestial things, 4046. Certain spirits called reasoners, mentioned, and their reasonings concerning life, 4417. Certain spirits who held a council, and reasoned REA 969 concerning divine things, faith, &c., all which they rejected, 5721. That evil spirits can reason acutely in their own light, but become stupid in the light of heaven, 4214. That spirits who reason much have little perception; an example given of such, 6324, 8628. 39. How the Rational Mind is represented in the Word, The rational part of man is compared to a garden, from representations which actually appear in the other life, 1588 end. The immense num- ber of rational truths is denoted by the stars; of natural, by the sands of the sea-shore, 2850. The rational part is called the heaven of man ; the natural, his earth, 8764. The rational faculty is represented by an eagle, by the wings of eagles, 3901, 8764. Rational truths are denoted by boys and by men, 2782, 4341. The celestial, the rational, and the natural in order, are denoted by the head, the breast, and the feet of the statue, 21 62. The rational is denoted by the windows of the temple, 658. The rational mind is denoted by the cedars of Lebanon, 118. When its state from the conjunction of good and truth is treated of, it is denoted by the vine, 5117. In the prophecies especially, it is denoted by the Assyrians, 1186. The sensual separated from the rational is denoted by a serpent, 6949, 6952, 6971. Reasonings from sensual things are denoted where Dan is called a serpent by the way- side, 6398 and following passages. False reasonings against the goods and truths of the church are denoted by frogs, 7265, 7295, 7351 — 7352, 7398. The intellectual, the rational, and the natural, in order, are denoted by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, 2083. The human rational is denoted by Ishmael; the divine rational, or intellectual, by Isaac, 1890, 6003. The rational is denoted by Isaac and Rebecca; the natural by Jacob, together with Rachel and Leah; the sensual, by their sons, 4009 end. The external of the rational is denoted by Joseph, 4570. Rational truths conjoined with good, are denoted by the men who came with Esau when Jacob met him, 4341. True rationality as distin- guished from vain reasoning, is denoted by the words of the Lord, Let your communication be Yea, yea. Nay, nay, 10,786. 40. Historical Passages before the Representation of the Rational by Ishmael and Isaac, The scientific and the rational, predicated of the celestial man, denoted by the shrub and the herb produced from the ground after it was watered with a mist, 75, 90, 95, 102. Reason, or the clearness [perspicacial of reason, denoted by the third river, called Hiddekel, which went out from Eden, 78, 118. The rational mind, or the rational (so called in the abstract), denoted by Assyria (Aschur), towards which it is said the river Hiddekel flowed, 78, 1 18, 658. The rational again, in the decline of the most ancient church, denoted by Adam now called a man [mr]; and self-love, or the proprium, by the woman, 191, 207, 238, 261, 265, 267, 268. The rational consenting with the proprium, and thus drawn down into sensuals and scientifics, denoted by the man eating when the woman gave to him, 192, 207, 238, 265, 267 — 271. The rational now dominating, and truths not produced without the combats and pains of temptation, denoted by the judgment upon the woman, 237, 261—266. Genuine reason lost, and ratiocination only remaining, denoted by the judgment upon the man, 238, 267—271.* The scientific, the rational, and the intellectual, when the spiritual church began, denoted in order by the several stories of the ark, lowest, second, and third, 602, 657—658. The man of the 970 REA spiritual church fallen into errors of faith by reasonings, denoted by Noah, when he drank of the wine from his vineyard, and was drunken, 1071. The truths of faith vanishing when explored by reasonings from sensual things, denoted by Noah when he lay in his tent uncovered, 1073. Reasonings concerning internal worship by those who are in external only, productive of false doctrines, denoted by Aschur said to go out from Schinar, and build cities, Nineveh, Rehoboth, &c., in Assy- ria, 1184 — 1191. The external man, rational, scientific, and sensual when in order, denoted by the plain of Jordan compared to the garden of Jehovah before the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, 1588—1590, 1598. Scientifics instead of rational truths, because the external sepa- rate from the internal is treated of, denoted by the men of Sodom, 1600. A state of perception from the rational, when the internal is adjomed, denoted by Abram the Hebrew dwelling in the oak groves of Mamre, 1700, 1702, 1704. The state of the rational man as to the external, the quality of its goods and truths, denoted by Eshcol and Aner the confederates of Abram, 1705, 1752. The rational man, and whatever is subservient to it, delivering the external from evils and falses, denoted by Abram and his servants fighting to rescue Lot, 1713. The rational man receptive of good, and his state of interior peace, de- noted by Melchizedek king of Shalem, 1725—1726. Note, that the rational man as to the communication of celestial things is denoted by Melchizedek; as to spiritual, by Abram the Hebrew, 1732—1741. 41. The Rational represented by Ishmael and Isaac, The rational man of the Lord, how conceived and born, by the influx of the internal into the external, represented in the history of Abram and his Egyptian handmaid, 1889, 1890, 1891. The rational man as yet nonexistent from truth adjoined to good in the internal, denoted by Abram and Sarai being childless, 1892—1894. Perception concerning the rational, that It IS to be born by influx from the internal into the external, denoted by the words of Sarai concerning Hagar, 1897 — 1901. The certain assu- rance that now the rational cannot otherwise exist, denoted by Abram hearkening to Sarai, 1902. The first life of the rational from the affec- tion of sciences, denoted by the conception of Hagar, 1908—1910, 1944. The first rational when in the womb denoted by Hagar herself, but after its birth, by Ishmael, 1920. Intellectual truth, or truth adjoined to good, lightly esteemed by the rational when first conceived, denoted by the contempt of Hagar for Sarai, 1908, 1911. The rational first conceived in the power of truth adjoined to good, denoted by the words of Abram to Sarai, Behold thy handmaid is in thy hand, 1920, 1921. The rational subjugated by the intellectual, and indignant against intellectual truth, denoted by the flight of Hagar when she was humbled by Sarai, 1223, 1933. The rational to be fructified when submissive to intellectual truth, denoted by the promise to Hagar when enjoined to return, 1938-1941, 1947. The quality of the rational man who is such as to truth only, not good, denoted by Ishmael where called a wild- ass man, 1948—1949. Rational truth contending against falses, and always victorious in contentions concerning the things of faith, denoted by the hand of Ishmael against every one, and said to dwell against the faces of all his brethren, 1950, 1951. At first, rational truth only, without good, because from the affection of sciences of the external man, denoted by Ishmael called the son of Abram, which Hagar bare to him. REA 971 1959—1961, 1964. The divine rational, filled full with truth and good, denoted by Isaac called the son of Abraham, and the blessing upon him, 2066, 2067. The affection of truth, predicated of the true rational, denoted by Isaac's name, which signifies laughter, because Abraham and Sarah laughed when he was promised, 2072. The first or human rational of the Lord denoted by Ishmael ; the rational made divine, bv Isaac, 2083, 2093, 2661, 2664. They who are made rational from truth only, distinguished from those who are made rational by good, denoted by Ishmael; the rational as to good, by Isaac, 2078, 2085, 2087, 2088, 2100, 2108, 2661, 2664, 2691. The con- junction of those who are rational from good with the Lord, and in the supreme sense, the union of the rational with the divine in the Lord, denoted by the eternal covenant with Isaac, and with his seed, 2084 — 2085, 2092. The salvation of those who are rational from truth, denoted by the blessing promised to Ishmael, on the intercession of Abraham, 2087 — 2088.

The puri- fication of those who are rational, and yet not of the church, as well as those who are of the church, denoted by the circumcision of the stran- gers of Abraham's household, together with those born in his house, 2113 — 2116. Rational good conjoined to truth in the Lord, denoted by Abraham and Stfrah when visited by the angels, 2170—2173, 2198. The conformity of the natural to the rational, denoted by the food pre- pared for them by Abraham, 2144, 2178 — 2184. Rational truth not apparent because in good, denoted in the inquiry concerning Sarah when she was in the tent, 2189. The rational made divine in the Lord, rational truth meanwhile unable to perceive how the state could be thus changed, denoted by the promise of a son (Isaac), and bv the unbelief of Sarah, 2139, 2194, 21 95, 2201—2204. The Lord's perception that his rational was still human, denoted by the inquiry why Sarah laughed; and the certainty that it would be made divine, denoted by the promise repeated that she should bear a son to Abraham, 2139 end, 2207, 2213, 2216. 42. Represented in the History of Abraham and Abimelech ; with especial reference to the doctrine of faith, 2496 — 2497, and the eluci- dation of that entire chapter; for particulars, see Philistines (5), Abraham (in Supplement), 43. The Purification of the Rational^ and the Spiritual Church existing therefrom^ represented in the subsequent History of Isaac and Ishmael, 2610 — 2614, also the elucidation of that entire chapter; for particulars, see Isaac (2), Ishmael (2), 2654 — 2718 inclusive; sum- mary and passages cited, 3264. 44. The Initiation of Truth into Good, and their Conjunction in the Rational, represented in the History of Isaac and Rebecca, 3012 — 3014; also the elucidation of that entire chapter. See Isaac (2), 3012 — 3282 inclusive, particularly 3207; see also Rebecca, Laban. 45. The Investiture of Divine Truth with Appearances of Truth taken from the Rational Mind, represented in the History of Isaac and Abimelech, 3357 — 3362, and the elucidation of that entire chap- ter; for particulars, see Philistines (6), Isaac (2), 3385—3459 inclusive. 46. The Rational when regenerated, and Life commencing in the 972 EEC Natural, represented in the History of Isaac* s Old Age^ 3490, and the chapters following. See Isaac (3), Jacob (9). REASONINGS. See Reason (25). REASONS. See Reason (24). REBECCA, denotes the affection of truth hegot with those who are not in the church, or, in other words, from the good of the Gentiles, 2865; see Nahor. The history of Isaac and Rebecca represents the whole process of the initiation and conjunction of truth with good in the Lord's divine rational, 3012, 3013. Rebecca, before her espousal, denotes the aifection of truth from doctrinals; afterwards, she puts on the representation of truth divine conjoined to divine good in the Lord's rational, 3012, 3013, 30/7, 3507. Rebecca represented the Lord's divine rational as to truth, Isaac as to good, 4614. She is called the woman and not the wife of Isaac, because there is not a real marriage, but only a covenant resembling it, between rational good and truth elevated from the natural, 3211. Deborah, the nurse of Rebecca, denotes the hereditary evil which the Lord derived from the mother ; her death, its rejection, 4563. Her sons, Esau and Jacob, denote the good and truth of the divine natural, both conceived together, 3299. See Esau, Jacob. RECEIVE, to, RECEPTION [redpere, reception']. The very being of men and angels consists in the reception of life from the Lord, ill. 3938 and other passages cited in Life (14). There is a correspon- dence between life and the recipients of life, and this so perfect that the recipients appear to live of themselves, ill. 3001, 6325 end. To receive or accept [accipere'] is predicated of affection, 2511. The reception of truth must precede the will to do good [benevolentia], and is predicated of the understanding, 2950, 2951, ill. 2954. Divine truths cannot be received, but only appearances of truth, which are of three degrees, 3362. Truths are said to be received when they are acknowledged, because adequate to the rational understanding, 3385. The spiritual receive truth, first, because it is called divine ; afterwards, because they discern the divine in it, 3392. The spiritual cannot re- ceive good, so as to perceive it, like the celestial, but they can receive or acknowledge truth, 3399. No one can really receive knowledges of truth from the mere description of them by others, but their own intuition is required, 3803. The reception and acknowledgment of truth is understood in the spiritual sense by conceptions and births, 3919; see below 4904. The Lord is present with every one according to reception, and reception is according to the hfe of truth and good, 4198; see below 4219. Truths are the receiving vessels of good, and the influx of good is according to reception, thus according to truths, ill. 4205. Man is really man so far as he receives from the Lord, 4219. Inferiors are provided for the reception of superiors, thus the Lord is received in heaven, the higher heavens are received in the next lower, and all together are received in man, hr. ill. 4618, 6013. None but those who are in the life of charity can receive the truths of heaven and the church, ill. 4776. The reception of truth is denoted by con- ception, and this takes place when it passes from understanding into will, ill. 4904; see below 9393. The reception of divine truth is not to have faith merely, but it is to act faith, and judgment is passed on man according to reception, 5068. Man is so organised that he can EEC 973 receive the divine, and also appropriate the divine by acknowledgment and affection, for which reason he can never die, ill. 5114. All in heaven receive the divine, that is, divine good and divine truth, 7208. Good is received immediately from the Lord in the inmost part of man,' whence it flows by successive degrees to the exteriors, ill. 5147, further ill. 9683. It is the voluntary part of man that receives good, and the intellectual part that receives truth, and the one cannot be received without the other, ill. 5147; see below 5354. The sensuals subject to the intellectual part are said to be received into the regenerate state, when reduced into order, and made subservient to interiors, ill. 5165. Man cannot receive good from the Lord except he remove evils, but so far as he removes evils he is the subject of influx,- whereby he is gifted with a new will and a new understanding, 5354. Good from the Lord continually flows in, but it is in the pleasure of man to receive it, or not receive it; his state in each case, ill. 5470; further ill. 5651. When man receives good from the Lord, truths are also given him, whereby he is perfected in intelligence and wisdom, 5651 end. Truths given by the Lord are first received as if not given, but as self-acquired, 5747. Unless good be received, and be conjoined with truth, mercy cannot be received because it flows in by good, 5816; further i//. 8700. The faculty of receiving good, called the receptibility, and in its ultimate form a receptacle, exists by influx from the Lord, ill. 6148; compare 10,124. It is the internal that procures to itself the faculty of receiv- ing good out of the external; ill. by the ground of the priests in the history of Joseph, 6148. Influx from the Lord is received by man variously according to the quality of every one, because the Lord com- pels no one, 6472. They who are in good experience a holy tremor preceding the reception of the Lord, but the e\il tremble with fear at his presence, 8816. The understanding is the recipient of the truth of faith, and the truth of faith of the good of charity; hence, the scientific is the first plane when man is regenerated, 6750. The reception of truth is illustrated by the ceremony with the blood of the sacrifices ; how it passes from the memory into the understanding, from the under- standing into the will, from the will into act, 9393, further ill. 9399, 10,645. The hearing and reception of worship by the Lord, is predi- cated after man is cleansed from evils and falses, ill. by the propitiatory commanded to be made of fine gold, 9506. The implautation of good by the Lord, and its reception by man, are predicated after the removal of evils and falses, ill. 10, 1 24. The quality of reception, predicated of truth from good, is denoted by various measures, and man is vivified by divine truth according to the quality of reception, 10,262. RECEPTACLE [receptaculum]. The natural man as to scientifics is denoted by a receptacle, because the good of truth is received in scientifics ; ill. by the sacks in the story of Joseph and his brethren, 5489, 5494, 5529, but particularly 5531. Common truths have each their receptacle in the natiiral man, within which every common truth is empowered to actuate itself, and thus changes its state, br. ill. 5531. The common truths in their receptacles when man is regenerated are as numerous as the societies of heaven, and in similar order, 5531. The receptacle of good in a general sense is denoted by body, the receptacle of truth by ground ; hence the meaning of body in the Lord's Supper, and of being in the Lord's body, ill, and sh. 6135—6138. The re- 974 RED RED ceptacles of good and truth, or of spiritual life, are called dead when there is no spiritual life in them, 61 .'36. By receptacles is to he under- stood the very forms which compose a man, because he is really nothing but a recipient of life from the Lord, 6138. The external or natural is the receptacle of the internal ; hence the need of its regeneration, ill. 6299. Heaven, as the receptacle of the good of love from the Lord is denoted by the table for the shew-bread, 9527, 9529. Rings called receptacles (namely, of the bars by which the tabernacle was carried) denote divine spheres, 10,191. See ^o Receive, Recipients. RECHOBOTH. See Rehoboth. RECIPIENTS OF LIFE. See to Receive, particularly, 3001, which is further ill. 8778; see also Influx, Life, Lord. RECIPROCALITY, chiefly, that it is predicated of the union of the divine and human in the Lord, or of divine good and divine truth, ill. 2004, 2011, 8691, 10,067. By reciprocality, predicated of acknow- ledgment and reception, the divine is appropriated to man, br. ill, 5114, further ill, 8778. Reciprocality is always predicated when conjunction by love and charity is treated of, 2177, 5002, particularly 6047 cited below. A similar reciprocality is predicated of will and understanding, of good and truth, 3090, 3155, 5365, 5928, 5931, 9300. A kind of reciprocation appears in the expressions of the Word, where goods and truths are spoken of in opposition to evils and falses, 2240 end. The connection of the internal and external by influx is called reciprocal, yet it is not meant that the external flows into the internal, dr. ill. 5119. All conjunction requires reciprocality, and hence consent on either part, ill. 6047. Reciprocality is predicated of action and reac- tion, and when the conjunction of good and truth is treated of, it must be understood that good acts and truth reacts, 8691 ; further ill. 8778. RECIPROCATIONS, a mode of torment by, 958, 5389. RECOMPENSE [remuneratio]. See Merit, Reward. RECOMPENSE [merce*]. See Reward. RECREATION, is predicated of the state of celestial and spiritual things enjoyed in peace, upon every cessation of temptation-combats, 1726. Recreation, respectively celestial and spiritual, is denoted by the bread and wine brought forth by Melchizedek after Abram's victory, 1727. When man is in temptation he hungers for good, and thirsts for truth, and when he emerges from temptation he draws them in and receives them like food and drink, 6829. A state of illustration and recreation is predicated of the spiritual when they are first elevated from states of desolation, or from darkness to light, 2699. The first state after temptation is consolation; the second, is illustration and recreation, 2699. Recreation, hope, and victory are from the influx of angels, and also from the immediate influx of the Lord, by which the good are delivered from the assaults of evil spirits, and thus from the temptations into which they are led, 6574. See Consolation. RECTITUDE denotes innocence and simple good, and in the original Hebrew, is expressed by a word which signifies integrity, per- fection, simplicity, 2525, 2529. A right [rectum], perfect, or whole heart, denotes good in which is innocence, 2526. Rectitude (riffht- eousness, Isa. xlv. 8—19) is predicated from the truths of faith; justice from the good of love, 9263. See Right. RED [ruhrum]. See Colours. 975 REDEEM, to, is to deliver from evil or hell, 6279; passages cited 6458, 7205, 7445, 8308. See Redemption. REDEEMER. See Redemption (6281), Lord (55); passages in which the Lord as to the divine human is called the Redeemer and Saviour, 7091. REDEEMING ANGEL, denotes the divine human, 6276, 6280. REDEMPTION. 1 . The Son of Man said to give his soul for the redemption of many (Matt. xx. 28; Mark x. 45), denotes love itself by which the Lord saved the human race, 1419. The Lord is called the Saviour and Redeemer because he delivered man from the power of infernal spirits, 2025, ill, and sh. 6280—6281, 7205, 8866. The spi- ritual are redeemed by truth ; and this is denoted in the Word by being bought with silver, br, ill, 2937, 2946, 2954, 2959. Redemption is the same as reformation and regeneration, by means of which man is liberated from hell, 2954. The redemption of the man of the spiritual * church is by truth ; but the redemption of the man of the celestial church by good, br, ill. 2954. They are specifically called the redeemed who emerge from vastation ; hence, the price of redemption by truth is denoted by forty pieces of silver, sh, 2959, 2966. The price of redemp- tion is the Lord's merit and justice, and it is predicated of man in the measure of his reception from the Lord; passages cited, 2966. Re- demption is the separation of guilt, or sin, effected by good from the Lord; and this was represented by the expiation wrought by the priest- hood, 3400 ; further ill, 6368. By the bought or redeemed of Jehovah those are meant who receive good and truth, thus to whom is appro- priated what is of the Lord, 5374 end; passages cited, 6458, 6461; Is. li. 1 0, cited, 8343. Redemption is predicated of deliverance from slavery, from death and from evil, and this redemption is wrought by the divine human of the Lord ; hence it is as to his divine human that the Lord is called the Redeemer, sh. 6281. 7205. Redemption is the deliverance of those who belong to the spiritual church, from infestation by those who are in the neighbouring hells, 7445. The spiritual were redeemed or delivered from infestation at the Lord's resurrection, 6945, 9197. The Lord redeemed the whole human race by the subjugation of hell, and he ever after saves all who sufl'er themselves to be rege- nerated by a life according to his precepts ; also, how it is to be under- stood that he redeemed man by his blood, in each sense, external, internal, and inmost, 10,152; see also 10,655, 10,659. 2. Passages in which the word Redemption is applied. The first- bom of an ass to be redeemed, and the firstborn of man to be redeemed, denotes that a merely natural faith, and even the truths of faith are not to be ascribed to the Lord, but something else in their place, which something else is afterwards shewn to be the good of faith, 8078—8080, 10,663 — 10,665. Expiation or redemption of the soul is predicated (in the sense of a deodand) in the case of an ox kilHng a man or woman, because it denotes repentance as the means of deliverance from damna- tion, ill, 9076—9077. See Expiation, Justice, Merit. RED SEA [mare suph^. See Egypt (7), Moses (15). REED {arundo, calamus']. See Cane. Staflf of reed denotes the supposed power of exploring spiritual truths by scientifics, 1085. Reeds and flags denote the lowest scientifics, 6726; see Grass. Those who come into a state of infestation and temptation are shaken like a reed VOL. II. r. 976 REF in the wind, from doubt to affirmation, and from affirmation to doubt, until they emerge and arc illustrated, 7313; sec further concerning such infestations, 7197 and the passages there cited. The Word is compared to a reed shaken with the wind when it is explained at plea- sure, 9372. The Word in the letter, or truth in ultimates, is also sig- nified by a reed, 9372. Those who think insanely about the mysteries of faith, in consequence of endeavouring to enter into them by scienti- fics, are denoted by the beast of the reeds, 9391. See Egypt, Pha- raoh. Not to break a bruised reed, is not to destroy fallacies, but to bend them to truth, 95. REFLECT, to, is to purpose [intendere] intellectual sight, denoted by lifting the eyes, 5684. REFLEXION, denoted by persons sent anywhither returning again, 4864. All reflexion is predicated of scientifics of the memory, which are regarded by the internal sight, 5498. All reflexion and thought are from the interior thought apparently in the exterior, 5508. Reflexion is briefly described as the regarding of a thing, in the ground of perception, 3661; see below, 2770. Reflexion is denoted by one commanding; perception by saying, 3661, 3682. The true order is, perception which gives to think, and thought which gives to reflect, 2770; compare 6836, 6839. The faculty of reflecting is from the life of the Lord, flowing-in by remains, 977, 2280. Sensitive reflexion and perception, are the con- ditions necessary to perceive the influx and operations of spirits, 5171. See Perception, Thought. REFORMATION. Reformation and Regeneration are treated of in six states corresponding to the six-days' creation, 6—13, sqq., fully cited in Regeneration (39); Man (43). Man can only be reformed in freedom, in which he compels himself, ill, 1936; passages cited, 4029, 8209. Man cannot be called reformed or regenerated before he acts from charity, 654. The states of reformation, from first to last, are represented in the narrative concerning Hagar and Ishmael in the desert (Gen. xxi. 13—21); these successive states hr, described, 2671, 2673 end. The first state of reformation is compared to immature fruit, in which all the means are prepared for its future ripeness, 2679; com- pare 2760. They who can be reformed are held in an affirmative state towards good and truth, which state is otherwise called, the affection of good and truth, ill, 2689. The affection of good and truth, is the means by which those who are reformed are introduced into heavenly freedom, 2874. All who are reformed and become spiritual, believe, in their first state, that the means of reformation are from themselves, and attribute it wholly to their own will and understanding, 2946 ; compare 874, 880, 2960. In their second state they are reduced to despair of knowing any truth, in order that the persuasive light which equally illuminates falses and truths, may be extinguished, 2682 ; compare 880, 2960. In their third state, they believe that they are reformed by the Lord, still they will that it should be from themselves, 2960; compare 889, 890. In the fourth state they perceive that all is from the Lord, but this is the angelic state, which few attain in the life of the body, 2960. The first, second, and third states of regeneration are most distinct; namely, to know, to acknowledge, and to have faith, 896. The reformation of man consists in the implantation of the truth of faith, and its conjunction to the good of charity, 2265 ; further ill. REG 977 .5270, cited below. The reformation and regeneration of man is an image of the Lord's glorification, for man is thus made new, and re- ceives, as it were, the divine, 3043, 3057. When man is reformed, common truths are first arranged in order, so that his rational mind is brought into correspondence with the order of heaven ; thus, mere doc- trinals or scientifics arc removed, 3057. An image of the reformation of man may be contemplated in his first formation in the womb; in fact, he is actually formed by good and truth from the Lord even in the womb, ill. 3570. Summary of the successive states of refor- mation ; shewing that truths are first multiplied, and then, apparently, extirpated before they can be conjoined to good, 5270 ; further ill. 5280. When man has arrived at adult age, and commits evil, if he is then grieved and anxious about it, it is a sign he is capable of being reformed, if not, it is a mark that he cannot be, 5470. Those who are reformed are held internally in good and truth, while externally they are in evils and falses ; ill. by the coffer covered with bitumen, and placed among the reeds, in which the child Moses was, (i72A—G72Q. The external spiritual, who do good from obedience to the truth of faith, not from the affection of good, cannot be regenerated even to eternity, 8991; but they are said to be reformed, 8974 end, 8977, ill. 8987. They who are led by the truths of faith to the good of spiritual life, are called the regenerated ; but they who are led so far as the delight of natural life only, are said to be reformed, 8987 ; see further parti- culars in Regeneration. REFORMED CHURCH. See Religion. REFUGE, A PLACE OF, denotes the state in which man is guiltless of evil because not done from depraved thought and will, 9011. REFUSE, to [renuere], predicated of Joseph when solicited by Potiphar's wife, denotes aversion; understand, the aversion of good natural-spiritual, to be conjoined with truth natural not spiritual, 4990. Refusing to let the people go, predicated of Phafaoh, denotes obstinacy in the delight of doing evil, 7032, 7038 end, 7501. Refusal of a father to espouse his daughter to one who had seduced her, denotes the state of interior good not admitting conjunction in such a case, 9185. As to refusal when it terminates in assent, 4366. REGENERATION. 1. Why Regeneration is necessary. All men whatsoever are born into evils of every kind, so that their proprium from nativity is nothing but evil, 210, 215, 694, 731, 874—876, 987, 1049, 2307, 2308, 3518, 3701, 3812, 8480, 8549—8552, 10,283, 10,284, 10,286, 10,731. So far as he derives from his hereditary nature or from his proprium, man is worse than the brute animals, and of himself continually tends to hell, 637, 694, 987, 1049, 3175, 8480. So long as a man is led by himself and his own loves he cannot be saved ; passages cited; 10,731. According to the order in which man was cre- ated, the natural and the spiritual made one, but by the fall the natural was first separated from the spiritual, and then began to domineer over it; hence the need of regeneration, 3167. The life of the natural man is so contrary to the life of the spiritual, that the very good he does from his proprium is not good, 874—876, 8478; as to the contrariety especially, 3913, 3928. On account of evils inherent in the nature of man, it is necessary for him to be regenerated and accept new life from the Lord, 3701. To this end, may's proprium (in other words, his z 2 978 REG evils and falses), must be removed, and they actually are removed by the Lord, when he is regenerated, 1023, 1044, 9334—9336, 9452— 9453, 9938. Summary account of such regeneration, and how man is prepared that truths may take the place of falses, 653, 875. See fur- ther as to the hereditary state of man, Evil (2) ; Proprium (1, 8) ; Man (17, 18, 22, 24). 2. The Regenerate and Unregenerate State compared; that in the man who is not yet regenerated the external dominates over the inter- nal, 977, 986, 3167, 8743. Before regeneration, man has no know- ledge of the distinction between the external and the internal, or what is of the Lord and what of self in him ; the knowledge of this distinction is the first state of regeneration, ill. 24. The difference between the two states ill, by examples; first, the regenerate man acts from con- science, but the unregenerate for the sake of self and the world; the regenerate man also has a new will and a new understanding, the unre- generate has cupidity in place of will, and reasoning in place of under- standing; the regenerate lives a spiritual life, the unregenerate a worldly life; finally, the regenerate knows what the internal man is, the unre- generate does not and cannot know, 977; see also passages cited below (27). Before regeneration, the good that a man does is for the sake of his own happiness ; after regeneration, it is for the sake of good itself, 3816. While regenerating, man acts from truth or faith, but when regenerate from charity; sh, how the regenerate state begins in works, and when completed ends in works, 3934; further concerning the latter, 5 1 22. The state of man before regeneration, when the external dominates over the internal, is contrary to true order, and unless it be inverted he cannot be saved, 8553, ill. 9258. See Inversion, Order (6, 7) ; Man (26, 30). The end of regeneration is, that the internal or spi- ritual may govern, and the external or natural serve, for thus alone order is restored in man, and he becomes an image of heaven, 911, 913, 5128, 5159, 5161. Hence, the new or regenerate state is one in which the old order of things is inverted, and exteriors are made to serve interiors; this, indeed, is the case at a particular period with all men, but the end in view is different, according as man is regenerated or not, 5159; see also 5376, 8995. Hence again a regenerate man is altogether another, a new man, and he is said to be born anew, created anew; this is really the case, though he remains the same as to the fea- tures of the body, 3212 ; nevertheless, that every evil remains, and is only removed from sight, 4564, 5113; compare 5134. The fact that the regenerate as to externals, appear like the unregenerate, while as to internals they are altogether different, ill, by a comparison between the love of the body for its own sake, and for the sake of the mind, and by the love of the' mind for the sake of good and truth, 5159. Briefly, that a man before regeneration does good from obedience; afterwards, from affection, 8505, 8690, 8701 . That before regeneration he is in wor- ship from truth ; afterwards, from good, 8935. That the spheres of the regenerate appear like rainbows, and the unregenerate state or the intel- lectual proprium is like a cloud; the two states compared, and the way in which spiritual light is received, 1042—1043, 1048, 1053—1055. 3. Spirits and Angela that are with Man in either state. While undergoing regeneration a man is in continual combat with evil spirits, but when regenerated good spirits and angels draw near to him and the REG 979 combat ceases, 50, 55 end, 59, 63, cited below (40); further ill, 653, 5280. Evil spirits dare not assault a regenerate person, because from the sphere they instantly perceive a reply and resistance ; nevertheless, they are still with him, but in a state of subjection and servitude, 1695. Before regeneration man is possessed as to his natural part by evil spi- rits and genii, and all his delights are really infernal, howsoever holy they appear, 3928. Man as to his internal is in the midst of spirits and angels, by whom he is influenced, respectively, to good and evil ; also, the changes by which he is led in the regenerate life are changes of spirits, ill. 4067. Good imparted to man as a means to genuine good is not derived from the spirits associated with him, but is received by or through them, 4077; see below, 4099. All thought and will are from the societies of spirits and angels adjoined to man ; thus, all good from the Lord during regeneration, 4096. Good from the Lord thus flowing in through the angels associated with man, is received and fashioned in his knowledges; and the reception of such good causes that the thought is held in truths until the man is affected by them, 4096. It is by societies of spirits dwelling in worldly things with him that a man is held in middle good, previous to receiving genuine good; but it is by societies of angels dwelling in heavenly things with him, that he is introduced into affections of truth, 4099. Unless the former (societies of spirits) are removed when man is initiated into heavenly things, truths are dissipated; by such removal, however, the external is made to agree with the heavenly or internal, and truths are multiplied in the natural man, 4099. Further ill. how the removal of spirits attendant on man is effected; sh. also that there are three kinds of spi- rits associated with those who are being regenerated, and that they are separated in freedom according to delights, 4110, 4111, 4136. Angels are in their felicity when the Word is read by man, because it treats in the internal sense of his regeneration, and they are thus brought into the delight of serving as mediums, 5398. There are with every man two spirits from hell and two angels from heaven, who are respectively near or remote according as the man inclines to evil or to good, ilL 5470. Truths rooted in the mind by affection for truth, form the plane into which angels operate, and by which they withhold man from evil, br. ill. 5893. Angels fight against infernal spirits, when their influx excites evil in man; examples given from experience, and that man i& thus regenerated, 6202. So long as man lives, the ideas of his thought are continually extending to societies, either of infernal spirits or angels; in the latter case, which obtains with the regenerate, particulars are continually filled into generals, and singulars into particulars; thus new truths are given, and the mind illuminates, 6610. For further particu- lars as to the operation of spirits and angels, see Influx (8, 10) ; Heaven (9); Hell (2); Man (12, 13, 14, 27); Spirit; Society. 4. That Man cannot be regenerated unless he be first instructed in Goods and Truths; this, because goods and truths in the memory are as the life's food by which the Lord operates, 677, 679; further ill. 711, 4538; br. 8635, 8638—8640, 10,729. Goods and truths are first received in the memory, and are then implanted in the conscience by faith; after which, when the internal man acts, goods are fructified and manifested in the affections, and truths multiplied, 984. The process of regeneration by knowledges and intellectual truths described, but this 980 REG REG 981 after a first plane has been formed in infancy by celestial affections, wherefore it commences from boyhood, 1555. The ground for regene- ration must be prepared in the intellectual part, because otherwise man acts from his voluntary proprium, which is damned, and is therefore miraculously separated, 875, 895, 896, 927, 1023, 1044; see below (6). Man IS regenerated intellectually, as to scientific, rational, and intel- lectual truths, that his mind may be prepared as ground to receive chanty; and until he thinks and acts from charity, he is not regene- rate, 654. In order to regeneration, the truths of faith must be received with genuine affection, because when this is the case, truth is reproduced or returns together with the affection, and the affection together with the truth adjoined to it; in this way the man can be withheld from evil by the angels, ill. 5893; see also 3336, and other passages cited below (11). That the reception of truth into the memory and under- standing, in order to regeneration, is predicated of the spiritual, not of the celestial, 5113; see below (23, 38, 39); see also Man (2, 43); Life (7); Understanding, Will, Mind. 5. That no one is regenerated except hy Charity ; here, because it is only in charity that the seed of the Word, or the truth of faith, can take root, ill. 880. No one can be regenerated unless he acknowledge that charity is the primary of his faith, for it is by charity the Lord operates, and by which the new will is formed, 989. They who do the works of charity from obedience are regenerated in the other life, pro- vided they do not attribute merit to themselves on account of their works, 989 end. States of charity and no charity succeed alternately both with those about to be regenerated and with the regenerate, ill, 933; see below (7). Man is not reformed or regenerated until he thinks and acts from charity, but his mind is previously prepared by scientific, rational, and intellectual truths, 654. Instruction in the truths of faith precedes regeneration, because otherwise it cannot be known what spiritual good or chanty is; but when charity rules, and all the delight of man is m doing good, he is regenerate, 4537. The procedure of regeneration IS such that the last becomes first, the end becomes the beginning ; thus commences the procedure of charity when the state is inverted, because chanty is the end for which faith is given, 5122; further ilL u- u .?^^^HA^JTY, Conscience; as to understanding and will, of which faith and charity are respectively predicated, see below (22) ; Man (17, 18); Love (19, 24); Life (1, 8, 10); Light (5); Pro- PRiUM (8); Influx (5). , ,?; P^ Proprium of Man when he is regenerating; that it is vivified by life from the Lord; ill, how fair it appears, by colours, 731. It is the intellectual proprium that is meant, and it appears the more beau- titul the farther it is removed from the voluntary proprium, 1042, 1043. As to the proprium generally, man ought to do good exactly as if the ^;?^^^*o ^f ® ^^^ ^^"' y^^ acknowledging that it is from the Lord, lU 1712; see below, 1937. As to the proprium, man is nothing but what IS false and evil; and though he be regenerated, evils and falses remain, but they are tempered, 868; especially 4564, 5113, 5134. Man ought to compel himself to truth and good, otherwise he is without propnum or self-determination; but a heavenly proprium is given to him K^i o^I^ i^J^ ^® ^^"^ submits himself, 1 937; further ill, 1947 ; see below, 2657. Man is led in the regeneration even by the fallacies of his I proprium; thus, he is not compelled by the Lord, but his ideas are bent to truths and goods, 24, 25, 2657. There is a proprium before regeneration, and a proprium after regeneration; the former consistent with the first rational, the latter with the new rational, 2657. ^Jf\l man is regenerated he acknowledges and believes that good and tnith by which he is affected are not from himself but from the divine and that from himself or his proprium there is nothing but evil, 5354. Man is so entirely evil that he cannot be fully delivered so much as from one sin to eternity ; but by the mercy of the Lord, if only it be received, he is withheld from sin and held in good, 5398. bee Pro- prium (3, 5). , 1 ^' 11 7. The Changing States of the Regenerate ; that such continually occur ; ill. by alternate changes of cold and heat, which correspond to alternate states of charity and no charity, 933, 934. The changing states of the regenerate as to the new will, are represented by summer and winter ; as to the new understanding, by day and night, 935— 9^b. Every one in the course of regeneration must undergo changes and in- versions of state ; something simUar indeed takes place with the unre- generate, ill by examples, 5280; see above (3), 4110—4111 ; see also ^ a! That Regeneration is progressive to Eternity. Goods and truths that enter into the regenerate state are so innumerable, and comprehend so many changing states, that it is impossible for man to know how he is regenerated? 675, 894. Such is the variety and succession of states, that man cannot be regenerated so that he can be c^led perfect to eternity, 675 ; 5122 cited below. Regeneration is of such a nature that man may be called more perfect as to certain states, but as to innume- rable others not so ; in fact, those who are regenerated in the life ot the body, go on perfecting to eternity, 894. The penods and progressions of regeneration are indefinite, both in the rational or mtenor, and in the natural or exterior; hence, the intermission of divine providence for the least moment would so disturb the progressions, or series of conse- quences reaching to eternity, that the human race would perish, 5122. Regeneration cannot be done in a moment, for it consists in the forma- tion of a new will and a new understanding; this work goes on from earliest infancy to old age, and is continued afterwards to eternity, 5354 ; passages cited, 9334 end. The regeneration of man m the world U but a^lane to perfect his life to eternity, and all who have lived m good are^ thus perfected, 9334 end. So little is known concerning regeneration at the present day, because an idea prevails that sins are inftantly and absolutely remitted, and that faith alone, or the confidence of a single moment, justifies man ; when yet, the arcana of regeneration are innumerable and ineffable, and persist through the whole life-time yea, to eternity, 5398. The regeneration of man persists to eternity Lcause it is the work of the Lord, whose providence and FOTidence have reference to eternal duration m all that he does, br, i/Z. 10,048. 9 narL oL is Regenerated after Death, 8858. Even those who do good, if it be from obedience, not from affection, cannot be regenerated to eternity; but they are called tbe reformed 89/4 end 8977, ill 8987, especially 8991. It is impossible for the lite to be changed, and the evil to be admitted into heaven after death ; for t^^^^^ would become as helpless as new-born infants if the life of the love of 982 REG self and the world were taken away from them ; the author's experi- ence, 2871, 9225 end; br, 10,749. See Life (11). 1 0. Temptations necessary in order to Regeneration ; first, see below (20, 21). Temptation is the beginning of regeneration, 848. The ground for regeneration is prepared by temptations, ill. 848. The effect of temptations is to render the external man compliant to the interna], ill, 911 — 913. By temptations, the vessels of truth are softened and rendered capable of receiving good, 3318, cited below (11). Temptations take place when good assumes the priority over truth, and until this is effected no one can be called regenerate, 4248, 5773. They who are regenerating, commence in a state of tranquihty ; afterwards they come into temptations, and after temptations into a state of peace, in which they remain, ill. 3696. To be regenerated it is necessary to endure temptations, which are described as combats between evil spirits and angels ; it is also stated that no one can be saved without regene- ration, 5280. No one can be admitted into temptations, thus no one can be regenerated, until the state of remains is full, 5335, 5342. Not only is it true that man cannot be regenerated without temptation, but he must endure many temptations, because the varieties of evil are many, 8403. Men come into temptation when the delight of pleasure is removed which makes the natural life; the difference of such delights before and after regeneration, 8413. After temptations the faithful receive consolations, and in both respects the regeneration of man is an image of the Lord's glorification, 7193. Temptations, however, persist even to desperation, because the truth of faith cannot be implanted until the false and evil are overcome; hence the church of the Lord is called fighting or militant, 8351. For further particulars, see Temp- tation. 1 1 . The Process of Regeneration ; first, that it is by instruction in goods and truths; passages cited above (4). Reformation and regene- ration are effected only by the truths of faith, because the truths of faith form the conscience, and discriminate between what is pure and impure, 2046. No one, however, is regenerated by truth alone, but by the good of truth, because truth without good is without hfe, 2697; see above (5). In explanation of this, — when man is regenerating, the Lord insinuates good into his truths, so that truths or knowledges of faith are vessels recipient of good, 2063. The good of charity increases and perfects itself by truth, and such truth is spoken of as implanted in charity, or clothed over it, or as forming the vessels by which it pro- ceeds, 2189. In the case of the spiritual, good and truth are implanted by the Lord in the affection of sciences, so that good manifests itself as an affection for truth, 2675, 2697. In order to regeneration, influx from the Lord continually flows into the rational part of man, and by the rational as a medium into the scientifics and knowledges of the ex- ternal, 2004. By such influx the scientifics and knowledges of the ex- ternal man are adapted to the reception of life, and man is conjoined to the Lord, 2004. Such conjunction is reciprocal, namely, of the Lord with man and of man with the Lord, 2004. To explain the reciprocity of conjunction between the Lord and man, understand that life is not predicable of truth or good abstractly, but of the affection for truth or for good, 1904; see below, 3101. Understand also that man is rege- nerated by the affection of truth, and that only when regenerated he REG 983 acts from the affection of good, 1904. In the process of regeneration, man receives new life from the Lord, who dwells with him in the good of charity; and so far as the regenerate man is in good or charity, he can be in truth or faith, 2343. In order to regeneration, the fallacies of the senses and the cupidities are not violently broken, but bent by the Lord to truths and goods, 24, 25, 2657; 4364 cited below. By this process, the first rational, which consists in self-intelligence, is extir- pated, and a new rational is given from the Lord, by which man is affected with truth and good for their own sake, 2657- Before man can be thus regenerated he is prepared by states of innocence and charity, and by knowledges of good and truth, during many years, 2636; see below (20). All the various affections, and the simple truths, or the errors taken for truths, with which man is imbued from infancy, are as means to the spiritual life attained by regeneration, ill, 2679. In the procedure of regeneration, correspondence is effected between the ra- tional and the natural man, and to this end regeneration is effected in freedom, 2850, 2876; further as to freedom, 3145, 3146; 4364 cited below. Every one also is regenerated according to his faculty and state of understanding, 2967, 2975. The procedure of regeneration is by truth, until the regenerate person acts from good, 2979, further ill. 3882; see also the passages cited below (18, 19). In the process of reformation, common or general principles are first arranged into order, and hence mere doctrinals are removed, ill, 3057 ; further ill, 3203 ; 4345 cited below. In further illustration of this, the first affection of truth with those about to be regenerated is impure, and order requires that it be successively purified, 3089. Instruction also is according to the affection of truth, and unless received in affection, thus in freedom, truth cannot be implanted, and elevated to the interiors, 3145, 3146. The elevation of truth is its initiation and conjunction to good, and be- cause this is according to affection, comparison is made with a virgin when she is betrothed, and finally joined to a husband, 3153, 3155, 3179. Regeneration is effected by the reciprocal conjunction of good with truth and of truth with good; their conjunction ill. 3101, 3102, 31 10, 3179, 3180, 4358, 9079, 9495. The arcana of regeneration, by such conjunction, and its likeness in marriage and offspring, are innu- merable, of which hardly anything is known to man, 3179, 5398. The case is similar with one about to be regenerated as with an infant, who must be taught to walk, to think and to speak, but afterwards all this flows spontaneously; so with truths, until good becomes of the very life, 3203 ; see below, 3665. At first, while man is regenerating good is done from doctrinals; but afterwards, when he is regenerated, it is done from good, ill. by examples, 3310; see below, 3332, 3336. At first, during regeneration, doctrinals are in the memory as a chaotic or undi- gested mass; afterwards, in the course of regeneration, they are reduced to order by good flowing in, 3316. The influx of good is into truths such as are in the rational and natural man respectively, and these truths (which are here called vessels), are softened by temptations, that they may receive good, 3318. The rational receives truths before the natural, because the natural can only be regenerated by influx from the rational; consequently, at a later period, and with more difficulty, 3321, 3469, 3493, 4612; see also 9103, and passages cited, 9325 end. The spiritual, when regenerating, proceed from doctrinals to the good of 984 REG REG 985 doctrinals, next (by intuition in doctrinals) to the good of truth, and then (by living accordingly) to the good of life ; but when regenerated, the order is reversed, and all truths and doctrinals are regarded trom good, 3332 ; see belove, 3860, 8772. The several orders of good here treated of are most distinct, the good of doctrinals being predicated ot science ; good of truth, of the understanding ; and good of life, of the will, 3332. In explanation of the priority and superiority of good, it is shewn that affection is always adjoined to whatever enters the memory, otherwise there is no apperception, and that the object in the field ot the memory, and the affection, are reproduced together when the affec- tion is excited ; so it is with the affection of good adjoined to truths when man is regenerating, for by this affection truths are reproduced, and thus, by its ulterior procedure, falses and evils are removed, 3336 ; further ilL 0893. He who is regenerating is led by the Lord first as an infant, next as a boy, afterwards as a youth, and at length as an adult ; also, the truths which he learns as an infant boy are altogether external and corporeal, such as historicals and rituals, 3665, further ill. 3690, 3982, 3986; 4377 cited below. The procedure of regeneration from the infancy of the regenerate life to adult age is described, first from the external, or from truth in the ultimate of order, to the internal, and afterwards from the internal to the external ; thus, that there is ascent and descent as by a ladder, 3701, 3726; also 3882 cited below. The order in which man is regenerated is almost unknown at this day, for few reflect upon it, and but few are capable of being regenerated ; here it is repeated, that this order begins from external truth and as- cends to internal good, 3761. In further explanation of this, know- ledges of good and truth are implanted in the natural mind as in their ground; but this, only by a life according to them, otherwise they remain in the memory as historicals, 3/62. Knowledges of good and truth must necessarily precede before man can be regenerated; so m general, before a new church can be established, 3786. Hence (as ah, above, 3332, 3701), all conception and birth, predicated of the regene- rate man, is from external to internal ; namely, from the truth of faith to truth in the will, and finally to charity, when man is affected with truth • also, these successive developments are contained one within the other,' 3860, 3862, 3863, 3868, 3870, 3872, 3876, 3877, 3882; see below, 8772. Hence, again, they who are regenerating first know in- ternal truths, but they do not acknowledge them by faith, nor yet by act, ill. in what such acknowledgment consists, 3906. Hence, too, eenuine truths and goods are introduced by mediate truths and goods, which are afterwards relinquished, 3665, 3690, 3974, 3982, 3986, 4063, 4145; see below, 4063. In agreement with all these principles, influx from the Lord is received in the good of the interior or spiritual man, and by truth there it passes into the exterior or natural man, and arranges all into order, namely, by the power of truth, 4015; see below, 4104. Regeneration, however, is not effected by a power which man cannot withstand, but by dehghts, which delights are the mediate goods spoken of above, whereby the man is gradually introduced into a new state of life, and made a new man, ilL 4063. By truths and goods in the regeneration are to be understood truth and good from the Lord, by means of the societies of spirits and angels associated with man ; how the spirits are changed, &c., 4067, 4077, 4096, 4099; particulars cited J above (3). Truths, and the affections of truth, are subject to a process of arrangement and elevation in the regenerate man ; but in the unre- generate they are suffocated or perverted, 4104. All arrangement is done according to the ends of man's life, thus when love and charity are the ends, all that pertains to the natural man is arranged in subser- vience thereto ; br, ah. what is to be understood by ends, causes, and effects, 4104. Statement resumed, that during regeneration, truth ap- parently takes the precedence, but when regeneration is accomplished, good precedes manifestly (3995, 5354 end) ; also, that this change of state is accompanied by temptations (4248, 5773); and that it produces another arrangement of truths and goods in the natural mind, 4250, 4251, 5871. The preceding repeated in a summary; also, that the arrangement of truth in the natural mind when good assumes the first place, is from the Lord, and is described as the arrangement, initiation, and submission of truth before good, 4269; see Initiation, Implan- tation, Inapplication. In this arrangement and initiation of truth into conjunction with good, common truths are first insinuated, next, the less common, or the particulars which form these generals, and so on, more and more interiorly, ill. 4345 ; further ill. 4377, 8773 cited below. In effecting such conjunction, the freedom of man is regarded by the Lord, and all freedom is of affection or love; hence, regeneration is effected by special means, by which the Lord in his providence, tacitly leads man, ill. 4364. He who is regenerating, passes through ages answering to those of his natural birth; his infancy is when com- mon truth is insinuated into good without particulars or singulars, 4377; see below, 4904. Spiritual Hfe comes forth from every age of the regeneration as from an egg; and the preceding age is as the egg of the succeeding one; this, in further illustration of the insinuation of good into truths, 4378 — 4379. It is truth in general, or common form, that is compared to an egg, namely, when it receives life from good; but it contains particular and singular truths, which are produced successively in incomprehensible series, 4383. The reception of truth is spiritual conception, for seed is the truth of faith; hence, when truth passes into the will it is in its womb, from which it can be produced in act, 4904; further t7/. 8043; see also 9042 cited below. By his natural birth man passes from the kingdom of the heart into the kingdom of the lungs ; but if regenerated by the truths of faith, he passes again as it were into the womb, and from the kingdom of the lungs into the kingdom of the heart, 4931. The process of regeneration by good and truth is described by the process of remains, which are first reserved in the interiors of the natural mind, and are afterwards the means of sustaining man in temptation combats, 5342, 5365, 5373, 5376; cited below (20). The procedure of regeneration is described in three pe- riods, 6396; cited more at length below (18). In course of regenera- tion former pleasures are removed, yet the regenerate man is not deprived of pleasures, but they form the plane in which spiritual good is terminated, 8413; see Pleasure (7). It is spiritual good, formed by truths of faith in the process of regeneration, that confers on man eternal life ; natural good does not effect this, ill. 8772. The procedure by which spiritual life is acquired by the truths of faith, thus, by which man is regenerated, is br. described ; first, the truths of faith are to be 936 REG known, then adtnowledged, and at length believed ; in this case they are conjoined with good by reception in the interiors, which good draws them to itself, and is afterwards produced through them into the life, Ul. 8772; further i7/. 9258, cited below (18). When good is formed by truths, the various primary or common truths are first insinuated, and afterwards the less common, which are arranged under those in a heavenly form; thus man is gradually formed into an image of heaven, and the understanding and the will are brought into consociation with angels, because with goods and truths, 8773. Regeneration thus effected, has charity and love to the Lord for its end (8856, 8857) ; hence, all the delights of self and the world must be inverted that they may serve as means, and not as the end for which man lives, 8995. Rege- neration (here called the generation of spiritual life,) is effected by the conjunction of good and truth ; also, the formation of good from truths is like the formation of the child in the womb ; whence it appears that to be born again is to be regenerated; passages cited, 9042, 10,021 cited below. The procedure of regeneration from the infancy of spiritual life to its fulness br. described; how indispensable are knowledges of spiritual things which can only be derived from revelation ; how truth is dis- cerned, &c., 9103. The implantation of the life of heaven (understand the initiament of the new will, cited below (19), 9296), commences in infancy, and continues to the end of Hfe ; indeed, the regenerate man goes on perfecting to eternity ; passages cited, 9334 end. The regene- ration of man is, in fact, only a plane, in order that his life may be per- fected to eternity; and all who have lived in good are thus perfected ; citations concerning infants and the gentiles, 9334 end. As regenera- tion proceeds, falses and evils are removed by goods and truths being implanted; this is a slow and gradual work, because if it were done hastily, falses would creep in and fill the mind, indeed the Hfe of man would perish, ill, 9334 — 9336. Evils and falses have such a connec- tion, and are so rooted in man, that it is incomprehensible even to angels; accordingly, there are thousands and thousands of arcana con- cerning the way in which the regenerate are led by the Lord, that hell may be removed and heaven implanted in them, br, ill, 9336. Falses and evils are removed, so far as truths are disposed into order, by good; because it is by good that the Lord flows into man, 9337. Goods, which are called the fruits of faith, are really first and last in the regenerate life; sh, from comparisons in the Word with the leaves and the fruit of trees, 9337. Man is called regenerate when he is in good from the Lord, also, he is then in heaven; it is thus only that the Lord can be with him, because he dwells in his own, and not in the proprium of any man or angel, 9338, especially the end. The begin- ning of regeneration is from a state of external innocence, resembling, through conception and birth, the state of infancy; it persists however to a state of internal innocence, and in both respects is an image of the glorification of the Lord; seriatim passages, concerning innocence vari- ously understood, 10,021. See Man (43); Lord (13). 12. The Regeneration of the Rational and Natural, respectively. The rational mind is most distinct from the natural, and it is to the rational part that truth and good are properly attributed, ill, 3020, 3498, 3573, 3576, 3579, 3616, 3679, 9394, 9723, 9922 ; see Reason REG 987 (12). When regenerated a new rational is received from the Lord; its quality before and after regeneration ill, and examples adduced, 2657; cited above (11). Previous to its regeneration the life of the natural man is altogether contrary to the life of the spiritual (or rational), ill. 3913, 3928. Before regeneration the interior (or rational man), as to truth and good, is as it were dead ; this because there is no cor- respondence with the truths and goods of the natural, 3969. When man is regenerating the Lord brings all things rational and natural into correspondence with each other ; hence, no one is regenerated until the natural man is regenerate, in other words, until such correspondence is effected, 2850, passages cited 9325 end; see below, 3493. The natural is regenerated by the rational, and this so far as they are no longer at variance, 3286. When the natural man is born anew, he owes his con- ception to the rational, and thus in order to the spiritual, the celestial, and the divine itself, such being the order of influx, 3304; see below, 3570, 4904. In the procedure of regeneration, good in the rational is as a father, truth as a mother, and from these are produced goods and truths in the natural, as offspring, 3285, 3286, 3288, 3299, 3314, 3570, 3573, 3616, 3671, 3677. The rational man, therefore, receives truths and is regenerated before the natural, and the latter, with much difficulty, afterwards, variously ill, 3321, 3469, 3493, 3855, 4612; see below, 3573. The good of the rational does not flow immediately into the good of the natural and regenerate it, but mediately by truth, 3509; see also 3502, 3563, 3570, 3573 cited below. Before the natural is regenerated, and thus brought into correspondence with the rational, it is as darkness, in which the rational appears to itself unable to see anything, 3493, further i7/. 3620, 3622, 3623, 3629; cited 3969. The natural cannot receive life from the rational except by doctnnals, or knowledges of good and truth, and such knowledges can only be ap- propriated by delights, 3502, further ill, 3508, 3512; see below, 3518. The celestial man is regenerated by knowledges of good; the spmtual, by knowledges of truth, 3502. The rational mind consists of will and understanding, from which, respectively, good and truth flow into the natural; but, before regeneration, the will and understanding do not act together, 3509. Genuine good, received from the Lord in the natural man, is called good of the natural, to distinguish it from natural good, which is described as mere delight; natural good, however, serves to introduce truth, especially while regeneration is proceeding, ill. 3518; see also 3665, 3690, 3974, 3982, 3986, 4145 cited above (11). Genuine good flows down into the natural at the commencement of re- generation, by the medium of truth, and manifests somewhat similar to good, but it is in inverted order, 3563; and the passages concerning the apparent priority of truth cited below (18, 27). The procedure of good flowing in by means of the rational man, whereby regeneration is effected, is like the procedure of the soul when the child is formed in the womb, ill, 3570, 4904. Good and truth of the natural are formed from good and truth of the rational, by influx; and this, by innumer- able means, which are treated of in the internal sense of the Word, 3573, br, 3616. Good from the rational occupies the inmost part of the natural; thus it conjoins itself with good, first or immediately, and with truth mediately, 3576. By the common form in which good first presents itself, it disposes the natural mind into order, and forms truths. 988 REG REG 989 It- by which, again, it produces goods, and so on; this, almost the same as life constructs the fibres of the body, 3579. Without the conjunc- tion of truth with good, and the unition of good with truth in the natural man, good and truth in the rational are as parents without off- spring, and regeneration cannot take place, hr. 3617; further ill. 3793; see also 4588 cited below. The regeneration of the natural commences from the ultimate of order, and it proceeds even to conjunction with the Lord by means of the rational, 3657, 3679 near the end ; see also 3868; cited above (11). Until the natural is brought into cor- respondence with the rational, it is impossible to think spiritually ; but when regeneration has progressed thought is predicated of the rational by its intuition in the good of the natural, ilL 3679. In every man who is regenerated, the good of his natural man is first conjoined with common good by the affection of interior truth, and afterwards with rational good and truth, 3825. Further explained, that the natural man can never be regenerated except from the interior (or rational), because all arrangement in the exterior is effected from the interior, by truth, 4015. Man is regenerated by this, that good is conjoined with truths in the natural mind, and then the natural is conjoined with the rational ; this procedure ilL 4353; see below 4612. Unless the natural be regenerated the rational cannot produce anything of good and truth, because there is no other receptacle for them, 4588. The preceding repeated, ill, also that the natural must be regenerated before it can be conjoined to the rational, 4612. Illustrated, how the interior natural, and the rational, are successively opened in man, or otherwise, how they are closed in case he is not regenerated, 5126, 5128; see also 5133. Further illustration of the order into which truths and goods are re- duced in the natural man when he is regenerated; how seusuals are all subordinated to the rational, and truths and goods occupy the centre, where they are in light, 5128 near the end, 5134. Rationals, naturals, and sensuals, must be reduced into correspondence in order to the recep- tion of divine influx; consequently, in order that a man may be reborn, 5131 end. The natural mind is not regenerated by scientifics, but by influx from the divine, 5398. The natural man at first shrinks from, and rebels against, submission to the spiritual, for it seems to him that, in such case, he is utterly to perish ; but afterwards he comes to think otherwise, 5647, 5650, 5660. In this connection it is repeated that, in order to man's regeneration, the natural must lose all its own power and become subject to the spiritual, 5651 ; further ilL 6567 cited below. When this takes place a new rational is given to man, called the natural spiritual, because the spiritual acts by it, 5651. All this takes place because the natural mind is the plane in which influx terminates; and either the spiritual must govern the natural, or else whatever flows in is turned into evil, 5651; further ill. 8351; see also 7442—7443 cited below (16). Some are regenerated only so far that their spiritual life is in the exterior natural, and such are in the external church ; others go beyond, and are elevated above scientifics and sensuals to interior thought and affection, and such are in the internal church, 6183. The natural or external man must be wholly submissive to the spiritual or internal, in order that the church may exist in him ; this submission consists in the predominance of good over truth, 6567; see below 8351. When the natural or external is regenerated, all therein is subjected in order to the interiors, and the interiors flow in as into their common vessels, 7442. Unless the external be subject to the internal, faith and charity cannot be implanted, but so far as that subjection or subordina- tion exists, they are implanted; repetition concerning influx, 8351. The internal man is regenerated by thinking and willing according to faith, but the external by a life corresponding to that thought and will, which is a life of charity, 8747, cited below (29). Natural life and natural good do not give salvation and eternal life, but spiritual life, which is the life of Christian good formed by the truth of faith, ill. 8772. The good of charity, which gives spiritual life, must have full existence in the interior man, or else it cannot restore good in the na- tural or external man ; the procedure by which such restoration is ef- fected ill 9 1 03 . The natural man is in hell, and the spiritual in heaven ; hence, the man himself is in hell unless he is regenerated or made spi- ritual, ill, 10,156. That regeneration, predicated of the internal and external respectively, is denoted in the Word by the creation of a new heaven and a new earth, 9336 end, and the explanation of Genesis i., ii., cited below (39, 40, 41). See Natural (4, 6, 13, 25), Good (3, 20), Perception (13, 25), Reason (19, 21, 30, 31). 13. The Rational mind before and after Regeneration, or the first and second rational ; their quality ill. 2657. See Reason (5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 29). 14. The Natural, before and after Regeneration ; first, see above (12), 3913, 3928, 5128, 5131, 5647. Before the natural is regenerated, and thus brought into correspondence with the rational, it is as dark- ness, in which the rational can see nothing, 3493, further ill. 3620, 3623, 3629. The natural, when not regenerated, turns goods and truths, which flow in from the rational, into evils and falses ; but, when regenerated, it is like a face in which these goods and truths efiigy themselves in corresponding forms, 5118, 5165, 5168. See Natural (4, 6); Man (24). 15. Submission of the whole man necessary in order to Regeneration; in other words, that the Lord must have the whole man, and not the man be partly his own, ill. and sh. 6138. 16. Thai the sensual part is not regenerated in our day ; the reason sh. and that man by regeneration is elevated from it, 7442 — 7443 ; see above (12), 6183. The faculty of elevation from the sensual part is the especial gift of the Lord to the regenerate ; in this passage the author's various statements are resumed in a clear summary, 7442. As to the regeneration of the sensual part, compare 10,028; also 9996, 9997, cited in Priest (7); and 6949, 6953—6954, cited in Moses (8), Power (8).

That some are external, some internal, when regenerated; the difference ill. 6183; see Internal (5). 18. Good and Truth with the Regenerate. It is according to the appearance and to the procedure of regeneration with the spiritual man, that truth is held to be prior and superior to good, but this appearance is a fallacy, fully ill. 3324, 3325, 3330, 3336. Hence, truth is appa- rently in the first place when man is regenerating; but the good of life 990 REG is in the first place when he is regenerated, 3539, 3546 — 3548, 3550, 3563, 3570, 3576, 3593, 3601, 3603, 3610, 3701, 3726, 3863, 3995, 4247,4248,4256,4337,4925, 5342 end, 5351, 5354, 5747, 5773, 5804, 5827, 6247, 6396; and the additional passages cited below (27). After regeneration the fructification of good and the multiplication of truth take place in the external man; the fructification of good in his affections, the multiplication of truth in his memory, 9 1 3, further ill. 984; see below 5270, 5365. Truths and goods appertain to the in- terior memory; hence, they are retained by the good, and they can be further instructed in them when they come into the other life, 2490. In virtue of truths and goods pertaining to the interior memory, the re- generate also come into angelic intelligence and wisdom in the other life, 2494, 6931. The consociations of good and truth in the regene- rate correspond to the arrangement or consociations of the heavenly societies; thus, the regenerate man is a little heaven, and heaven is a grand man, 1900, 1928, 3584, 3612, 4154, 4302, 5704, 5709, 8370, 9079, 9473, 9670, 9673, 9680, 9682, 9683, 9741, 9807, 9812, 9873, 9891, 10,270, 10,303; especially the summary 9079; see also below 9846. Good natural to man is not spiritual good, or the good of faith and charity; natural good is from the parents, but spiri- tual good is from the Lord by regeneration, 3470, 3518; especially 3603. Natural good is vastated, and spiritual good is formed in course of regeneration by truths, to which end truths not genuine are first insinuated, 3470; see below 3665. In the procedure of regeneration truths adjoined to natural good are as fibres which are led and applied into form by interior good ; but this with much grief from combat, 3470, 3471, 3579. Good thus formed in the natural or external man is as a texture woven and formed by the internal man from the Lord, who is the Former and Creator, 3470, 3494, 3513; see also 8043 cited below. Good is manifested at a later period than truth, because it is the inmost in all the affections of man ; ill. by the twofold involuntary faculty, which spontaneously produces evil before man is regenerated, but good when he is regenerate, 3603 ; see also 5342 end ; and see 5827 cited below. Good from the Lord is the essential life of truth, but essential life is not received until self-derived life is vastated, 3607. Truth is first deprived of self-derived life, when good begins to be regarded in the first place, and thus, to have the dominion in all things, 3607; see below 4248. Truth is said to have self-derived life when any delight from the love of self and the world is adjoined to it, and it is the first receptive of essential life, when the life of the love of self and the world is extinguished, 3610. The quality of the life when truth is regarded as prior and superior to good, compared with the sordid life of brute animals ; also, that there is a continual endeavour in good to restore the state that truth may be subordinate, 3610 ; see below 4248. Good into which the regenerate are first introduced is called the good of sensuals, or pleasure [ro/upe], and this was repre- sented by mount Gilead, ah, 4117. Mediate truths and goods serve to introduce genuine truths and goods during regeneration, and afterwards are rehnquished, 3665, 3690, 3974, 3982, 3986, 4063, 4145. Good from the Lord is received by the mediumship of angels into the know- ledges of truth which man has, and its effect is to hold him in truths REG 991 until he is affected by them, 4096, 4099. Mediate goods (spoken of above) are varied and changed with those who are regenerating; but with the unregenerate it is not goods that are changed, but affections and their dehghts; for want of knowledges, however, these things can- not easily be comprehended, 4136. Good and truth from the Lord form the interior conscience, or the interior plane, by which the Lord rules those who become regenerate, ill. 4167. When good assumes the first place, or the dominion over truth, regeneration is accomplished, and this change of state is accompanied by temptations, 4248, 5773, 8351. In this case another order is produced among the truths and goods of the natural man, which order is from the Lord, who now arranges, initiates, and forms all, 4250, 4251, 4269; see below 5704; and the citations concerning the new will and new understandings (22). The order here spoken of is such that incongruous and opposing scientifics are rejected from the midst to the sides, or from light to shade, 5871; see below 455 1 . The natural man being thus regenerated, the conjunction of good with truth can be effected more and more interiorly, ill. 4353; see also 4345 cited above (11). Truths are accepted and implanted when the man is led, in freedom, to good ; ill. also by examples, that truths are insinuated into good by special means, 4364. Common truths are implanted in good, or receive life from good, when man is first born anew and is au infant of the regeneration; afterwards, particulars and singulars are conjoined as he advances from age to age, 4377—4379, 4383. By good is to be understood spiritual good, which consists in willing and doing good to others from no selfish motive, but from the delight of affection ; also, no one can have such good except by regene- ration, which is efJFected by the truths of faith, 4538. Before man receives good from the Lord by regeneration, he has many falses mixed with truths, which are arranged into order when he is regenerated, and acts from good; in this case truths occupy the inmost and falses are removed to the circumference; but, in the unregenerate, falses occupy the inmost and truths are removed, 4551, 4552. Evils and falses are removed only, not actually extirpated, by regeneration, yet the regene- rate are held in good by the Lord, ill, 4564. Interior truths are from the rational man, but their reception is in the natural; wherefore, if the receptacle is not prepared by regeneration, truths and goods are extin- guished, or, it may be, perverted or rejected, 4588 ; further ilL 4612; 5126, 5128 cited above (12); also 5376. During man's reformation truths are copiously received in his natural memory, but during rege- neration he is apparently deprived of truths, because they are indrawn ; when this takes place the natural mind is illuminated from the interior, and in the measure that evils and falses are removed, those truths are produced forth and conjoined to good, 5270 ; further ill. 5365 cited below. The state of instruction which precedes regeneration yet further ill., also the apparent privation of truth, and especially the necessity of temptations in order that evils may be removed, and that truths may appear in light in their proper order under good, 5280. Goods and truths that are stored up together in the interior of the natural mind are called Remains ; and such remains are produced-forth in states of temptation, by which means the regenerate are sustained, 5342, 5363; further ill. 5376 cited below. Truth is conjoined to good, and good to truth, reciprocally ; this conjunction constitutes the heavenly marriage, VOL. II. A A 992 REG and when it is effected truth is fructified from good and good from truth; the process iV/. 5365; see below 5928. The multiphcation of truth precedes, and the fructification of good follows; hence, there are states of spiritual indigence or hunger, and hence again, the conjunction of truth and good is according to desire, ill, 5365. The same thing expressed otherwise, viz., that truths are multiplied before regeneration, and afterwards they are conjoined to good in desolation at the time; this ill. and the state of desolation exhibited in passages from the Word, 5376. There is no conjunction of truths without good, because there is no end to which they all alike tend, and no origin from which they all alike come; thus, they are not pervaded and ruled by any universal principle, 5440. Good arranges truths in its own likeness, thus, into the form of heaven, for there is a living force in it, because the Lord himself; thus the whole application of truth is in subordina- tion to good, ill. 5704, br. 5709; see also 8370. Truth is manifested before good, because it is nearer the light of the world; but good is in the spirit of man and in the light of heaven, ill. 5827, compare 8648. Good, when it has the dominion, multiplies truths around itself, also around every individual truth, and makes it as a little star, and thus produces truths from truths in succession, 5912; see below 6004. The reciprocality and reaction of truth is from good, for truths with good in them are Hke blood vessels containing blood, and without good they are empty and lifeless, 5928, ill. by the same and other comparisons, 8530, 9154, 10,555; and by the conjunction of the heart with the lungs, 9495. Truths again, in order to man's regeneration, must be initiated into scientifics; this, in order to the conjunction and correspondence of exteriors with interiors, and in order to the extension of thought and communication with many societies, 6004, 6023, 6052; see also 6610 cited above (3); and see below 8725, 9723. Neither truth nor good can be received except in the intellectual part of man (the spiritual man being understood), ill. 6125. The affection of truth is described in two kinds, the one prior, in course of regeneration, when the man looks at good from truth ; the other, later or posterior, when the man is rege- nerated, and he looks at truth from good, br. ill. 6247. The course of regeneration is described in three periods; the first, when man is in truth, but not in the good of life; the second, when he is in the good of life from truth but not from good; the third, when he is in the good of life from good, 6396. All spiritual good proceeds either from faith or from love ; when man is regenerating it is from the truth of faith, but when he is regenerated it is from affection, thus from love ; how totally distinct the two states are, 7857, further ill. 8013. By good (of the spiritual) is to be understood truth, that has passed from the understanding into the will, and from the will into act; such is the good of charity, from which, then, proceed truths, which alone are the genuine truths of faith, 8042. Faith thus produced, called the faith of charity, is the new birth, from the procedure of which the man is said to be conceived and born anew ; from which, also, the Lord is called the Maker, and the Former from the womb, ill. 8043. Truths that are capable of being made goods (see above 5365, 5704, 5928) are br. de- scribed as to their quality; viz. that they must be confirmed truths, in manifold consociation, and held in affection, 8725. The procedure by which truths are conjoined to good ill., that, in the first state they are REG 993 simply known, in the second acknowledged, and in the third they are believed; also their quality in the first and second state, br. ill. 8772. Passages cited concerning regeneration ; especially that it is the con- junction of good and truth, 8983 end; but especially 9042, 9043; passages cited 10,237^; further t7/. by the signification of the Sabbath, 10,360; also, that such conjunction is the same as the conjunction of the new will and new understanding, 9055. Goods and truths are dis- tinguished as interior and exterior, which proceed in diverse order ; namely, from truth to good in the internal man, and from good to truth in the external, 9135. When the state before regeneration is treated of, the order in which they are named is ** truths and goods ;" but when the regenerate state is predicated, the order is "goods and truths,'* 9135. Good is made good by truths, or takes its quality from truths, and therefore is known for good by desiring truth ; wherefore when truth perishes, good also perishes, 9206, 9207. He who knows what the formation of good from truths is, knows the veriest arcana of heaven, for he knows the secrets of man's creation anew, or regenera- tion, which is the formation of heaven within him, 8772. Good and truth form a connection and constitute the life in man ; hence, the necessity that falses be extirpated and truths implanted by the Lord, or that falses be such as men hold innocently, which are capable of being bent to good; the procedure of good compared with the prolific essence in seeds, etc., 9258. Good and truth, and indeed the very form of all things in the regenerate man, is according to use of life ; also, that his use or end is his good, the formation of which is by truths, 9297. Knowledges of good and truth, or scientifics from the Word, serve as objects of internal sight, from which the internal man elimi- nates whatever is agreeable to his love ; that it is in this way the regene- rate become more perfect, ill. 9723. The truths of faith in those who become regenerate are disposed in a form corresponding to the spiritual heavens, while the good of love corresponds to the celestial heavens, 9846. Regeneration is effected by divine truths from the Word received more and more interiorly ; and, finally, all such truths exist together in order, in the ultimates of man, 10,028. The difference between truth and good in the internal and external man ; that in the external both are apparent, but not in the internal ; especially that truths implanted in the life do not appear, 10,029. In the first state of regeneration truth is implanted and conjoined to good ; in the second state truths proceed from good, because it is from good that man regards them, speaks them, and does them, 10,060. The conjunction of truth and good, or of faith and love, is reciprocal, and is called the heavenly marriage, or heaven itself in man; it is in this marriage union that the Lord dwells with man, because all good, and all conjunction of truth with good, is from him, ill. and sh. 10,067; the former only. 10,237^, 10,367. It is the Lord alone who effects the conjunction of good with truth, and of truth with good, and not man at all; ill. by the conjunc- tion of will and understanding ; and further ill. that conjunction is by love, which becomes of the will, 10,067. Good is implanted in men of both classes, celestial and spiritual, by truth, but in a different manner; with the celestial, in the will part, because truth is at once received in the good of love ; with the spiritual, in the intellectual part, because truth is first received in the memory as science ; hence, the different A A 2 994 REG procedure of regeneration in the two cases, 10,124 ; compare 10,787 cited below (23). Regeneration by truths from good was represented by the altar of burnt-offerings ; worship, by the altar of incense, 10,206 end; see below (36). Further, as to good and truth predicated of the regenerate, see Good (20); Influx (3); Life (15); Man (27); see also Implantation; as to celestial and spiritual good, see below (23); Good (16); Heaven (5, 6); Order (17). 19. Concerning the two states of those who become Regenerate; first, when they are led by the truths of faith to the good of charity ; and secondly, when they are in the good of charity, 9274; see also the numerous passages cited above (18); and continued (22). The knowledge of these two states is sufficient to shew that a new understanding and a new will are given by the Lord to those who become regenerate, and that man is not made new until he has both, 9274 ; see also, 9055. These two states are distinctly treated of in the Word, and it is a law of order, that when a man is once introduced into the latter state, he should not return to the former; passages cited, 9274, 10,184, near the end. Truth and good predicated respectively of these two states, or of the new will and new understanding, make the spiritual life of man ; the formation of either state is here treated of as the implantation of truth and the implantation of good, 9296. It is further explained how the implantation of good, or the initiament of the new will, dates from infancy, and increases with the life of innocence, in the succeeding ages ; also, how this new voluntary part is the dwelling of the Lord in man, and is perfected by the implantation of truth, 9296, 9297 ; the former part concerning the implantation of life in infancy cited, 9334, end. That man is not in heaven until he comes into the second state, or is led of the Lord by good; passages cited, 9832, end; cited again, 9845. Illustration of what is here said concerning the two states of regeneration by the circle of life in man ; first, that the truths of faith enter by sight and hearing into the memory, and after their reception in thought and affection become of the will ; secondly, that man speaks and acts from the conjunction of the good of charity with such truths, 10,057; further, 10,060. That when man is in truths he is in com- bats, and when in good he is at rest; in like manner as the Lord was divine truth when in combats, and divine good when at rest, which rest is meant by the Sabbath, 10,360. That man enters heaven when he is in good; that he is led by truths to good; and that truth is made good when it becomes of the will or love; how this is effected, 10,367; cited above (18). That this conjunction of good and truth is the heavenly marriage, and that they who are only in truths, and not at the same time in good, cannot be regenerated, 10,367. The two states of regeneration again described, and br. ill, by action and reaction ; that every active requires to be conjoined with a reactive, in order to make a one ; accordingly, that good acts, and truth reacts, so far as it receives from good, 10,729. Further, as to the conjunction of these two states, or of good and truth, see Marriage (13j; as to the signification of the two states, by labour and rest, respectively, see Sabbath. 20. Fulness of state predicated before man is regenerated ; that such fulness consists in states of innocence and charity, also of know- ledges of good and truth, all which are meant by Kemains, 2636. Further shewn that there are in every man, goods and truths stored up REG 995 from infancy, which goods and truths are signified in the Word by Remains; passages cited, 5128. Truths joined to goods and reserved in the interiors of the natural mind, are called Remains; and regenera- tion cannot be effected until this state is in fulness; passages cited, 5335; further i7^. 7984. The procedure of regeneration by Remains ill., especially, their use in temptations, 5342, 5365. The conjunction of good to truth, and of truth to good, which may also be called the procedure of Remains ilL 5365. When the uatural man is regene- rated, the truths and goods of Remains are brought together into the scientifics of the natural mind, because they are then in the ultimates of order, br. ill, 5373. See Fill, Full, Implantation. 21. Remains necessary to Regeneration, See above (20); Man (23); but especially Remains. 22. That a new will (voluntarium), and a new understanding (intellectuale), are given by Regeneration ; the procedure a little ill. and that it continues from infancy to old age, indeed to eternity, 5354. The new will and new understanding exist by influx from the Lord, 5354. The truth of faith is predicated of the intellectual part, and this is apparently in the first place when the regeneration proceeds ; but the good of charity, predicated of the voluntary part, is really the first, and it manifestly appears so when regeneration is effected; pas- sages cited, 5354 end, 8036. The implantation of faith and charity, thus, the formation of the new will and new understanding is effected by temptations, which are combats against evils and falses, 8351. A new understanding is given to the regenerate by the truths of faith, and a new will by the good of charity; it is shewn also that both must be conjoined in order to regeneration, 9055, 9274. The new will is first implanted in infancy by good from the Lord, ill. 9296; cited above (19). The truths which make the new understanding in man are truths from good, in which the Lord is present, ill, 9297. The intellectual part of the regenerate man corresponds to the spiritual kingdom in heaven ; the voluntary part to the celestial ; this because the former is the receptacle of the truths of faith, the latter of the good of love, 9835; cited, 9846. See Mind; and as to the two parts of the mind, voluntary and intellectual, in those about to be regenerated, see Pharaoh (3). 23. Regeneration of the Celestial distinct from regeneration of the Spiritual ; that the former are regenerated as to the will proprium, the latter as to the intellectual proprium, 5113. The man of the celestial Church was regenerated as to the voluntary part, by the good of charity imbued in infancy, which grew to perception, and thus produced in the intellectual part, as in a mirror, all the truths of faith ; with the spiritual, on the contrary, a new will is given in the intellectual part when its state is formed by instruction and the reception of truth, 5113; further ill, 10,124 cited below. When the spiritual man is regenerated, the will proprium still remains in evil; but it is then miraculously separated, and the regenerated person is held in good by superior force, 5113. The celestial man is regenerated by the good of love, or by seed implanted in the voluntary part; but the spiritual by the truth of faith, or by seed implanted in the intellectual part, 5113; further lY/. 10,124. The spiritual man cannot possibly receive any- thing of good and truth except in the intellectual part, 6125. The 996 REG procedure by which the regeneration of man is carried on till he be- comes celestial, is described in the ceremony of expiation ; the same br, ex. and passages cited concerning the difference between the celes- tial and spiritual, 90/0. The celestial and the spiritual are relatively the same as the two faculties of will and understanding, or as good and truth, 9835; cited, 9846. Good is implanted in the celestial as well as the spiritual by truth, but in a different manner, ill, 10,124 ; cited above (18); compare 2954, cited in Redemption. They who are regenerated by the Lord, and commit truths immediately to the life, come into interior perception concerning them ; but they who receive truths first into the memory, then into the understanding, and finally into the will, are in faith, and act from conscience, 10,787. See Love (13); Good (16); Sabbath (1, 2); Profanation (3); Order (8); see also below (38, 39, 40, 41). 24. That no one can be reformed and regenerated except in free- dom, 1937, 1947, 2876, 4029, 4031, 7007; ill. by the separation of spirits in freedom, according to delight, 4110, 4111, 4136. That the natural man shrinks from conjunction with the spiritual, because he fears that he should lose his freedom and all the delight of his life, 5647. See Liberty; or, briefly, Man (15). 25. That the regenerate are led by goody and therefore live accord- ing to order, thus, in the Lord, 8512. The same further i7/., also, that in him who lives according to order, the way is open to the Lord ; but in him who does not live according to order it is closed, 8513. Man is first led by truth to good, and before this he cannot know what good or charity is ; afterwards the Lord leads him by good, and good adopts the truths that are in agreement with its quality, and joins them to itself, 8516. The conjunction of good and truth here spoken of is effected in a state of peace, because all who are led by good are in peace, 8517; ill. by the six-days' labour and the Sabbath, 8539; con- tinued below (27). 26. Regeneration treated of in series with the doctrine of Charity, 8548 — 8553, 8635 — 8640. He who does not receive spiritual Hfe from the Lord, that is, who is not regenerated, cannot be saved, 8548. Spiritual life (received by regeneration) is to love the Lord above all, and the neighbour as oneself; but natural life (which is all that we receive from our parents), is to love self and the world. 8549. Every one is born into the evils of self-love, and the love of the world ; and these hereditary evils are from our parents and ancestors, traced to remote generations, 8550. Besides this proneness to evil, man con- firms himself therein by continually adding evils of his own, 8551. These evils are so contrary to spiritual life, that the man needs to be created anew, and unless this be done he is damned, 8552. Further stated in explanation of this, that the order of life is completely inverted by evil, and order can only be restored by regeneration, 8553 ; con- tinued below (27). 27. The inversion of life with the Unregenerate continued ; that for this reason, man does not come into heaven until he is in such a state that the Lord can lead him by good, 8516, 8539, 8721—8722, 8773, 9832; see also, 9139. That the prior or first state of regeneration is to be led by truth, the latter to be led by good ; passages cited above, (18); after which, 7923, 7992, 8505, 8506, 8510, 8512, 8516—8517, REG 997 8539, 8643, 8648, 8658, 8685, 8686, 8690, 8701, 8726, 8935, 9135, 9224, 9227, 9230, 9274, 9832, 9845. That only he who is regene- rated knows the distinction between what is of the world and what of charity, or spiritual good, 8635—8640, 8685 end, 8690. This, be- cause man of himself can only know such things as are obvious to the senses, therefore such as relate to the world and self, 8636. Certain truths br. recited which a man cannot know of himself, but must be instructed in from revelation, 8637 ; further as to the inversion of state, see Order (7); Man (26). 28. Influx from the Lord during Regeneration, Every one receives influx from the Lord mediately and immediately, but the conjunction of truth proceeding mediately, with truth proceeding immediately from him, rarely takes place, ill. 7055, 7056, 7058. In the first state of regeneration, while man is led by truth, he is governed by immediate influx from the Lord ; but in the second state, when he is led by good, he is governed by influx both mediate and immediate ; citations con- cerning influx of both kinds, 8685, ill. 8701. See Influx, as to good and truth (3); as to the terms Mediate and Immediate (11). 29. Regeneration further treated of in series with the doctrine of Charity ; first, that man is internal or spiritual, and external or natural, and that he is not regenerate until the natural man is regenerated, 8742 — 8747. With the unregenerate it is the natural that rules, and the internal that serves ; but with the regenerate a contrary order takes place, 8743. The natural man, when not regenerate, makes all good consist in pleasure, gain, &c.: but when regenerate, in serving the neighbour, &c., 8744, 8745. The natural is regenerated by the inter- nal, and this by the life of faith, which is charity, 8746. The regene- rate man as to his internal is already in heaven, among angels there, with whom he lives after death, 8747. The very end or purpose of man's regeneration is that charity, and love to the Lord, may rule in him, 8856 — 8857 ; this, because the life of every one is according to his ruling love, which cannot be changed after death, 8858. See also, as to the Natural Man, the passages cited above (12 — 14). 30. That Worship is acceptable so far as Regeneration has pro- ceeded; because, it is only so far that it proceeds from the truths of faith and the good of love, 10,206. See Love (10). 31. That the Jews were ignorant of Regeneration^ sh. 4904. See Profanation (12) ; Jew (5). 32. The difference between Purification and Regeneration ill., how they were represented by washings in the Jewish ritual, 10,233, 10,237, but especially 10,239. See Purification. 33. That Regeneration is represented by Baptism; also the words of the Lord explained, " He that belie veth and is baptized shall be saved,'* 9032. To be regenerated is to be led into the good of love and charity by the truths of faith (passages cited, 9032) ; hence the signifi- cation of washings formerly, and now of baptism; because water denotes truth, by which man is interiorly cleansed from evil, 9088. Every form of expiation by washings, burnt-offerings and sacrifices, repre- sented purification from evils and falses, collection of passages to shew that all purification is done by the truths of faith, 9959. Passages cited concerning purification and regeneration by the truths of faith ; that this is denoted by water, and is done in the natural man, 10,238 end. 998 REG REG 999 " E^eeneration was represented by washing the whole body, called baptizing ; the Lord's words ex.

See 35. That Regeneration is an image of the Lord's Glorification, 1 502, 1554, 2093, 3017, 3043, 3057, 3138, 3141, 3200, 3212, 3296, 3471, 3490, 4237. 4353, 4377. 4402. 4538, 5688, 5827. 7193, 10.021, 10,060, 10,067. 10,076, 10,239. The regeneration of man is similar to \he glorification of the Lord, also the first conception of his rational mind, but the formation of the new rational is difi'erent, 2093. The procedure of regeneration is similar to the procedure of the Lord when he made his human divine; indeed, so far as man is created anew he has the divine, so to speak, in himself, only that nothing is done by his own power. 3043; cited, and further i7/. 3057, 3138. Because of tins similitude the same passages of the Word treat in the representative sense of man's regeneration, and in the internal sense of the Lord's glorification, 3296. 3490. 3656. 3657. 4353. 5688. The Word is generally explained of man's regeneration, because this is adequate to our ideas; not so the glorification of the Lord, which transcends human understanding, 4353, 10,021. The glorification of the Lord is by a procedure according to divine order; so, the regeneration of man, by which he is made spiritual and celestial, and which is an image of the Lord's glorification, 4402 ; further ill. 4538. The glorification of the Lord's human till it was made divine good is described in the internal sense by the process of expiation in the Levitical ceremonies ; the same process, in the relative sense, describes the regeneration of man to celes- tial good, which is the good of the inmost heaven, ill. 9670. The pro- cess by which the Lord glorified his human, and by which he regenerates man. is fully described in the ritual of the burnt-oflTerings and sacrifices; the same described and illustrated by the circle of life in man. com- mencing from the will in the inmost. 10,057. The first state of the glorification was the implantation of divine truth, which is described by the sacrifice of a young bullock, and the burnt-offering of the first ram in the ceremony of consecration; the second state was the procedure of divine truth from divine good, which is described by the offering of the second ram, called the ram of fillings; also, that the two states of rege- neration are similar; passages cited, 10.060; further ilL 10.076. See Lord (53. 61). 36. How represented in the Burnt-offerings and Sacrifices; citations given above (35) 9670. 10.057. 10.060. 10.076.

That all the appointments of divine worship connected with the priesthood had reference to salvation by the good of love from the Lord ; that such is the signification of all the burnt-offerings and sacrifices, the shew-bread, the incense, and the appointment of the Levites in place of all the first-born, 9809. In a summary, that sacrifices and burnt-offerings in general signified rege- neration by the truths of faith, and goods of love ; and this according to the various things used in the representation. 10,042. Especially, that the sacrifices and burnt-offerings denote purification from evils and falses, followed by the implantation of good and truth, and their con- junction; passages cited, 10,143.

Who are capable of being regenerated, and who are incapable. They are capable of regeneration who are in the affirmative state with regard to truth, and are confirmed in it even to affection; but they are incapable who cherish doubt, and denial till the false is preferred in affection, the cause of which is evil of life, 2689. If a man who has turned to evil experiences anxiety when he reflects upon it. it is a sign that he is capable of being reformed; it is also explained that they who experience such anxiety, acknowledge their evils, and that such internal acknowledgment produces confession and repentance, 5470. To be reformed is not to be regenerated, and they who do good from obedi- ence only, and not from affection, cannot be regenerated to all eternity; passages cited' above (9). That truth and good conjoined make the regenerate state, 8983 end. That the reception of truth is attended with difficulty, see below (38). 38 The reception of truth by the Spiritual in order to regenera- tion ; of how little they are capable, ill, by the bottle of water given to Hagar, 2674. In their first state, the spiritual are relinquished to the proprium, for they do not yet perceive that all good and truth is from the Lord, but attribute it to themselves, 2678. In their first state of reformation they are carried into various errors, denoted by the wan- dering of Hagar in the wilderness, 2679. Before they can be regene- rated, they are reduced to mere ignorance, or despair of perceiving good and truth, which is called the desolation of truth, denoted by Hagar when she left her child Ishmael to die, 2682 ; ill and examples given, 2694. They who are in the affection of truth come into states of anxiety when thus deprived of truths, but not so the evil, 2689, cited above (37). After the state described as the desolation of truth, the spiritual come into a state of illustration and joy, denoted by the consolation of Hagar, 2699. A state of first instruction when the spiritual are illustrated, is described by Hagar's eyes being opened ; in this state the truth is known from interior sight, ill. and sh. 2701. In the next, or second state of instruction, denoted by the boy drinking of the water discovered to Hagar, truths are easily received because from affection, 2704. But that the spiritual have not perception hke the celestial, 2708.

The successive states of Regeneration, by which man was made spiritual; described in the order of the six-days' creation, 0—1 J. 'Iht first state precedes regeneration, and is called emptiness and dark- ness; in this state the mercy of the Lord is denoted by the spirit ot God moving upon the face of the waters, 7, 17—19; see also, 8/4. 880, 2946, 2960, cited in Reformation. The second state is when a distinction is made between what is of the Lord and what is ot man s 1000 REG REG 1001 propnum, denoted by the distinction of the h'ght from the darkness ; this state rarely exists without temptation, misfortune and grief, by which those things which are of the body and the world are reduced to quiescence, 8,20—24; but particularly, 24; see also, 880, 2()82, 2960, cited in Reformation. The third state is one of repentance, in which good works are produced, but attributed to self, for which reason they are as yet inanimate ; such good productions, however, are denoted by the tender herb, the herb yielding seed, and the tree yield- ing fruit, 9, 29; compare 889—890, 2960. The fourth state is when the external man is affected with love, and illuminated with faith, such love and faith being denoted by two great luminaries, 10, 30—38; compare 2960. The fifth state is when he begins actually to live from faith, and this living state is denoted by the fishes of the sea, and the hirds of the heavens, 1 1, 39—43. The sixth state is when the ex- ternal man is occupied with truths and goods, and he begins to act from faith and love conjointly; this state is denoted by the Hving soul and beasts produced on the earth, 12, 49—53. The spiritual man thus produced by six successive states of regeneration, and his domi- nion from external to internal, is denoted by man said to be created in the image of God on the sixth day, and power given to him over the fishes of the sea, the birds of the heaven, &c., 12, 49—53. Note: the greater number of those who are regenerated at the present day only arrive at the first of these states; some at the second, third, fourth, and fifth ; a few at the sixth, and hardly any at the seventh (next treated of), 13. 40. Description of the Regenerate State when the Spiritual Man was made Celestial. The dead man is made spiritual by regeneration ; but the spiritual is made celestial, 73, ill 81. The state of the spi- ritual man about to be made celestial is denoted by the sixth day, when, as we read, " Finished were the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them," 83. When man is become spiritual, and while he is being made spiritual, he is kept in a state of combat against evil spirits; but at the end of the sixth day evil spirits retire, and good spirits take their place, so that he is introduced into the celestial paradise, br, 55 end, 63; after which read 50, 59, 653. The celestial man is not in a state of combat, but in a state of continual rest and victory; this state is denoted by the seventh day, which is called the rest of the Lord because he alone worked, and fought for man, in the previous states, 74, 81, 84—88. The formations of the celestial man begin from the internal, whereas the spiritual began from the external; hence a change in the expressions, and the words with which the second account of the creation com- mences, * These are the nativities of the heavens and the earths, 89. The first state in which the formation of the celestial man commences is one of tranquility, because now combats have ceased; this state is denoted by a vapour or mist ascending from the earth, and watering all the faces of the ground, 90—93. The life of faith in the external man made celestial, distinguished as the scientific and rational which form the understanding, is denoted by the shrub and the herb growing out of the ground thus watered, 75, 90, 9d. The celestial life of love in the external man is next described by man formed from the dust of the ground, because ground denotes the external man, and the life of faith only prepares him to be man, but the life of love makes him really man. -jii^ 94—97. The intelligence of the celestial man, and its influx by love from the Lord, is now denoted by the garden in Eden, eastward ; trees desirable in aspect are perceptions of truth; trees good for food, perceptions of good; in this garden also, love is called the tree of lives, faith the tree of science, 77y 98—106. Wisdom from love, as the source of all intelligence in the celestial state, is next described by a river; the four streams of which are the intelligence of good and truth, as distinctly predicated of the internal and external man, 78, 107 — 121. The conscious acknowledgment of man in this state that all is from the Lord, is denoted by the trust conferred upon him, viz., to cultivate and to keep the garden, but not to claim it as his own, 79, 122 — 124. The celestial order described in a summary, 121; and its opposite in the uuregenerate, 130. 41. The Procedure of Regeneration, when the Celestial Church had jyerished; the new spiritual church denoted by Noah, 599 — 604, 701— 704, 832—837, 971—976, and the entire explication of those chapters. That all men were become corporeal, but those meant by Noah could be regenerated, 628, 664. As to the necessity of a new church, or the regeneration of the race at that time, 530—531, 559, 560—563, 598 ; particulars cited in Noah (4). The state of those who could be rege- nerated previous to their regeneration, their preparation, the tempta- tions to which they were subject, and their protection, 599 — 600, 603 —605, 701—703, 832—836, 838; particulars in Noah (5, 6). The state after temptations, and the order of life when regenerated, 832— 836, 838, 971—972; particulars in Noah (7, 8). The first, second, and third states after temptations, distinctly treated of, 874, 880, 889 —890; described in a summary; first, to know; second, to acknow- ledge; third, to have faith, 896; see Reformation. As to the ancient or spiritual church in general, thus formed by regeneration, 973—976 ; see Noah (10). Note here, that the bow given in the cloud for a sign, and mentioned twice, denotes the state of man receptive of spiritual light, both those of the church who are regenerated, and those not of the church, who are, nevertheless, capable of being regenerated, 974, 1042—1059. See Rainbow; Man (U); but particularly Sphere. 42. The Law of Regeneration represented in a special Command- ment; viz., that life received from the Lord is not to be mixed with the evil life of man's proprium; denoted by flesh not to be eaten with blood in it, 999—1003. That in this case, there can be conjunction with the Lord, by the new life of the regenerate (spiritual) man; denoted by the covenant of the Lord with every living soul, 1049, 1050, 1059. See Life (18); Man (43); Noah (8, 9). 43. The Regenerate Life represented in the History of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob ; first, all that really lives in man in the obscure state preceding regeneration, denoted by the soul they made in Charan going up with Abram and Lot, 1436, 1502 compared. The reformation and regeneration of a certain class represented in a portion of the history of Lot; namely, how they are withheld from evil and held in good, if only they resist in temptations, 2343; see Lot (2). Those who receive life from the Lord forming his kingdom, and not those who are only in ex- ternals, denoted by the son of Abram to be his heir, and not the son of his steward, 1 799, 1801—1804. The first state of the rational, or spi- ritual man, viz. when he is such from truth only, not from good, and his 1002 REJ existence from the affection of sciences, denoted by Ishmael born of the Egyptian handmaid, 1890, 1893, 1895—1907, 1909—1910, 1915, 1949, ill. 1950, 1964, 2078, 2085, 2087—2090, 2100, 2108, 2601, 2669, 2691, 2699, 4189 and citations; see Ishmael. The new life of the rational with the regenerate, viz. when good is conjoined with truth, denoted by Isaac the son of Abraham and Sarah, 1890, 1893, 1899, 1950, 2066, 2083—2085, 2092—2095, 2610; see Isaac. The regene- rate life, when the internal man is entering into a state of celestial order, denoted by Abraham when it is said that he was come into days, 3016, 3017. The conjunction of truth with good in the rational mind flowing from this order, denoted by the marriage of Isaac with Rebecca, preceded by initiation, 3012, 3013, 3030, 3048, 3077, 3085, 3086, 3098, 3108, 3116, 3125, 3128, 3138, 3153, 3155, 3188—3192, 3196 — 3200, 3202. The new life of the natural man corresponding to the marriage of good and truth in the rational, and rational life terminated therein (on the principle that the interiors exist all together in ultimates), denoted by Esau and Jacob born to Isaac, and by Isaac dying, 3232, 3286, 3288, 3289, 3293 and sequel, 3498, 4618; see Esau, Jacob. The affection of truth internal and external, the natural affections ad- joined thereto, and finally, all the states of life through which the rege- nerate are led, denoted by the two wives of Jacob, by their handmaids, and by his twelve sons; as to the wives, 3822—3826, 3846, 3852, 3845 — 3848, 3852; as to the handmaids, or the natural and corporeal affections in which the affection of truth is quickened, 3835, 3849, 3913, 3917, 3919, 3925, 3931—3933, 3937; as to the sons of Jacob, 3913 ; see Jacob, especially (6); see also. Life (18); Abraham (in Supple- ment). 44. That the Regenerate are denoted by Man, the Son of Man, and similar expressions in the Word ; this, because the Lord is the only man, and others are so called from the reception of his life, sh. 49; see Lord (19). 45. That Regeneration is especially represented in the flouoering and fruiting ofTrees^ 5115, ill. 5116; see Tree, but especially Man (43). REHOBOTH \Rechohoth\ As to the city of this name, built by Asshur; see Nimrod. As to the well dug by Isaac, Rehoboth in the original signifies breadths, and breadths in the internal sense of the Word are truths, 3433. REIGN, to \regnare\. To reign is predicated of truths, and thus of the understanding ; to rule, or to have dominion of goods, and thus of the will; the same difference exists between kingdom and dominion, sh, 4691, 4973; see Government, King, Dominion. REINS. See Kidneys. REJECTION. In order to a right understanding of the Word in the internal sense, all idea of place, of time, and of person must be rejected, and states conceived of, 10,133, other citations in Place (11). Communications of affection and thought, of delights, &c., treated of ; how instantly the removal of sadness or other impediments is effected, 1393. Removals or rejections again treated of in illustra- tion of certain words in the Lord's Prayer (lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil) ; with what inexpressible velocity ideas are purified as they ascend, by rejecting whatever savors of temptation or evil as coming from the Lord, 1875. Good and truth descending from REL 1003 heaven are turned into their opposites in hell; and conversely, evil and the false are turned into good and truth by the same process of rejection treated of in the above passages, 3607. The elevation of truths and affections of truth treated of; the contrast of this state with their rejection, or perversion by those who are not in heavenly loves, 4104. The knowledge of spiritual things is rejected in heart by those who are in the loves of self and the world, ill, 4585. The rejec- tion of prayers is mentioned, viz., because the things prayed for are not consistent with the salvation of the human race, 4227. The rejection and removal of falses represented in the Word, 4551. The rejection of sensuals treated of; by which is not to be understood the senses of the body, but conclusions from them concerning interior things, 5094 end ; compare 5700, 5990. The rejection of evils and falses briefly explained, by which is meant their removal to the sides when goods and truths are collected in the midst, 7984. The rejection of the Old Church at several periods, and the institution of a new one spoken of, 4333, 4423. The rejection of the evil under the Lord's feet, 3633. REJOICE, to. See Joy. RELAPSE. Concerning the state of the unregenerate who relapse into their cupidities, notwithstanding there are times when they see how evil they are, 2041. The refluence or relapse of the falses of evil treated of, ill, by the return of the waves which drowned the Egyptians, 8223 — 8226, 8334. Every one of sound mind is in the faculty of understanding what is true and good, as becomes manifest in the other life ; but the evil being averse to truth and good, relapse into the falses of their evil, 9399. Truth is said to be received by man when it is made of the life ; otherwise, it may indeed be elevated to the internal sight, but again, it inevitably relapses into the memory, ill. 9393. RELATE, to \narrare\. See to Narrate. RELATIONS. See Relatives. RELATIONSHIP \consanguinities\. See Affinity. RELATIVES. All perception is relative to the contrary modes or opposition of things; thus, of good and evil, 7812; and it is so in heaven, 5962. The sphere of perception, and the extension of its limits, is actually formed from relatives; thus, all perception of good, all happiness, and felicity, are proportionate to the experience of their opposites, 2694. RELAXATION, of the bonds in which man is held ; if this were possible, how madly would he rush into evil, even to hell, 987, 1304, 7515 ; passages cited, 8678; see Evil (2). RELEGATION, a term used by the author, to express the return of evil spirits to hell, &c., after temptations, 6762. RELENT. See Repentance. RELIGION. 1. The Jewish Religion; that internally it contained the truth; similar, with respect to the external rites of the Christian Church, instanced by the Holy Supper, 4700. It was not a church that was instituted with the Jews, but the representative of a church, properly called a religious corruption [religiosum\y 4706 ; compare 4440, 4444 ; passages cited, 4852. As to the word religiosum, in a good sense, 2864—2869, 5757. See Church (3); Jew (4); Nations (6). 1004 REM REM 1005 2. The Roman Catholic. The origin of the papal authority briefly mentioned; that before it could be established, the distinction between the divine and the human in the Lord was decreed, 4/38. The Roman Catholic religion is like that of the Jews, external without internal ; hence, it is of the divine providence that the priests alone drink the wine in the holy supper; br. ex. how profanation is thus guarded against, 10,040. Concerning a Roman pontiff seen by the author; his imaginary inspiration when presiding in the Consistory de- scribed, 3750. 3. That there are two Religious Corruptions [bina religiosa\ both from self-intelligence, one characterized by the love of self and the world, the other by the light of nature; in the latter class some ac- knowledge the Word, but only to confirm their own views, 8941. The duty of persons belonging to the various religions shown ; that they ought to search the Word prayerfully for themselves, 5432. See the numerous citations under the word False ; see also Church. 4. Good done from Nature and from Religion distinguished y 5032 ; and that religion must be formed by truths from the Word, 8941. See Good (3). 5. Religion of the Gentiles, All throughout the world, who live according to their religion are saved, and the special Church of the Lord is as the heart and lungs to the rest of the viscera, 9256. Among those who do not live according to their religion, the lot of Christians is the worst, because they have rejected the truths of the Word, 69/1. See Nations (7, 8, 9). RELINQUISH, or Leave, to [relinquere\ The spiritual mean- ing of this word is nearly the same as its literal acceptation, for it means to be separated; the boy (BenjaminJ unable to leave his father, ill. 5812, 5813. Where it is said Joseph and his brethren went up to bury Israel, and left their infants, their flocks, and their herds in Goshen, to relinquish or leave, predicated of the latter, denotes that they were there, viz., in the inmost of scientifics (because, here, separation is not really treated of), 6532. He who regarded not the Word of the Lord, said to leave his servants and cattle in the field, where they perished (Ex. ix. 21), denotes the destruction of goods and truths because not of the Lord, and therefore not reserved in the interior, 7565. The ques- tion of Reuel, ** Wherefore have ye left the man?" (meaning Moses, Ex. ii. 20), denotes the doubt into which the conjunction of that truth with good was now brought, 6789. The flesh of the passover not to be left till morning (Ex. xii. 10), denotes the duration of that state (namely, of deliverance from infestations), and its complete cessation, prior to the state of illustration, 7860. The state of man relinquished or left to his proprium ill, 2678, 2946, 5650. The man to relinquish father and mother, and adhere to his wife ill, 160. That to relinquish on the part of one, may imply something abstracted by another, ill. by Joseph leaving his garment in the hands of Potiphar's wife, 5008, 5028 compared. RELISH, or Taste. See Tongue (I); Mouth. REMAIN, to \manere\ is explained in the sense of detention, predicated of truth (here denoted by Rebecca), when it is about to be elevated to the rational mind, and is not easily separated from the natural, 3175. To make to remain (when Joseph detained Simeon as a hostage), denotes to be separated, here predicated of faith in the will, 5520. To remain in the river (meaning the plague of frogs), denotes the cupidity of reasonings which becomes inherent in the natural mind occupied by falses, 7398. REMAINS [reliqui(je'\. 1. What is meant by Remains. By Re- mains, generally speaking, is to be understood whatever is of the Lord in man ; where first treated of, they are described as the knowledges of faith, or of truth and good, upon which the mercy of the Lord operates, 8, 19; see also the latter number cited below (3). Remains consist, not only of goods and truths impressed upon the memory from infancy, but also of the various states of innocence and charity, of love towards relatives, brothers, teachers, and friends, of mercy towards the poor and needy, &c., all these are reserved in the internal man by the Lord, separated from the evils and falses of the proprium, 561 ; see below, 7^^^' Remains are of the Lord alone in man; they are in the internal man; and by them all charity is communicated, 57^, By remains is meant all that man possesses of innocence, of charity, of mercy, and of the truths of faith, with which he has been imbued from the age of infancy, 661, 1050. Remains are affections of good and truth in the internal man, by which the Lord flows in, and operates against cupidities and falsities in the external; hence temptations, 857. First remains are states of innocence and the good of love given in infancy; the second state is that of introduction by knowledges, 1548; see below, 1906. By remains is meant the entire succession of states of the affections of good and truth from infancy to the end of life ; the use of which states in the other life is here ill, 1906, cited 2280; see below (10). Remains of good are received from infancy, remains of truth afterwards; general explanation of what is meant, and that such remains form the real man, and are of the Lord in him, 1050, 1906, 1560. There are three kinds of good signified by Remains, namely, the good of infancy insinuated to the tenth year, the good of ignorance insinuated during instruction, to the twentieth year, and the good of intelligence acquired by reflecting upon good and truth, and by temptations, 2280. By remains is meant all the good, and all the truth, that lie concealed in a man's life and memory; by which (it is further explained) is meant, in the interior man ; also that all good and truth are from the Lord ; passages cited, 2284 ; as to the production of such good and truth in exteriors, compare with this passage, 6156 cited below. By remains is meant all that man receives from the Lord before regeneration, in order to prepare him ; hence, all by which he is regenerated, 2636. Re- mains are goods and truths stored up [reposita] in the interior natural; br. explained, how they serve for use, and how, on the contrary, they may be consumed by application to evils and falses, 5135; the defini- tion of remains, and passages, cited, 5291, 5335, 5342, 5894, 5897, 6156, 7556, 7601, 10,221. Repeated, that remains are truths and goods stored up in the interior of the natural mind, but more defini- tively, that they are truths conjoined to good ; also, that the verimost life of the spiritual man, consists in such goods and truths as were repre- sented by the food stored up in the cities of Egypt, under the admini- stration of Joseph, br, 5297; further ill, 5340, 5342, 5344. That Remains, thus understood, correspond to the societies of the second heaven, 5344, further ill, 5897 end, both cited below (3). Repeated, 1006 REM that remains are goods joined with truths, which are stored up in the interiors by the Lord, and that remains or residue of a nation denote abstractedly such goods and truths, and hence the middle and inmost of the church, sh. 5897. Before good is made manifest, acknowledg- ments and affections of truth are sometimes to be understood by remains, 5894 ; see also first citation above. Stated negatively, that goods and truths to which evils and falses are not adjoined, thus, which are not vastated, but are reserved in the interiors by the Lord, are meant by remains, 7556 ; further i7/. 7601 ; cited below (17). Stated again (in language slightly differing from the preceding), that the reservation of good and truth in man by the Lord is meant by Remains (sometimes remnant, residue, &c.), in the Word; passages cited, 7556. That Remains are reserved to the end, that there may be something human, because it is only by good and truth reserved in the interiors that man can have communication with heaven, 7560. That goods and truths which are of the Lord are stored up ; but not the goods and truths, so called, which are of roan ; the difference ilL 7564. Sum- mary statement of the doctrine of Remains, 7984 ; cited below (12). See also Regeneration (20). 2. How Remains come, and Regeneration by them, in a summary, ilL 5342 ; further ill. in respect to conjunction with angels, 5344 ; especially, 5897 end. 3. When produced or manifested. Remains are said to appear in the second state of regeneration when a distinction is made between what is of the Lord and what is of self, or between the internal and external ; to this state few are brought without temptation and sorrow, 8. Remains (which are knowledges of good stored up in the internal man by the Lord) never come to light before externals are vastated, 19. Remains, which are goods and truths, are never produced so as to be acknowledged, before man is regenerated, 737. So far as a man extinguishes the remains of innocence and charity when he comes to adult age he is dead ; and so far as he is regenerated it is by remains, 1050. Before man is regenerated he is prepared by remains of inno- cence and charity, and knowledges of good and truth, during many years; even till his state is full, 2636. When the time arrives that man can be regenerated, then the Lord inspires the affection of good, and thus excites whatever remains adjoined to that affection ; this being done, the affections of other loves can be successively removed and the state changed, 3336. In order to reformation man is in- structed in goods and truths, to which in his first state evil loves attach themselves ; in order to his regeneration, therefore, the affections of good and truth, insinuated from the time of infancy, and called Re- mains, must also be excited ; hence the combats of evil spirits and angels, which are experienced as temptations, 5280. Remains arc remitted into the natural man during regeneration, and in the degree he is regenerated; first, common goods and truths, afterwards, par- ticulars and singulars, 6156 ; compare 2284. 4. That in the meanwhile goods and truths called Remains are especially guarded ; a little sh, 259. 5. That Remains being destroyed, man perishes ; this, because the very existence of the spiritual and celestial life is in remains, 468, 560; the latter 5898. Understand, that he perishes as man, and exists in a REM 1007 condition much viler than that of brute animals, 530, hr, ill, 560, 665, 660, 1738; but compare 1050 cited below. In other words, if man had no remains, he would necessarily be in a state of eternal damnation, 561 end, 6348; the same confirmed by the signification of escaping, which denotes deliverance from damnation by remains, 5899. Se- riatim, that remains are really the cause that man lives, 1050; that without remains he perishes, 468 ; that he perishes when the way is closed up against the operation of remains, 660; and that the way is closed by falsities, which exist when truths are applied to confirm the lusts, 798; compare 794; as to the antediluvians who perished, see below (7). Generally, as to the consumption, or destruction of re- mains, 5135, 5897. See Thief. 6. In like manner the Church in general ; which is therefore always preserved with a few, called the remnant, the residue, and said to be in the midst of the land; first cited, 407, passages cited, 468. 7. Instanced in the case of Churches that have parsed away ; first, in the case of the most ancient church, 407. The preservation of doctrine derived from the most ancient church, or all that remained of the goods and truths of faith is thus denoted by Noah, 468; but especially 530. This remnant consisted of a residue, not of perception, but of integrity, and of doctrine derived from the subjects of perception of the most ancient church, 530. The celestial church perished, be- cause the goods and truths of faith were destroyed by immersion in the cupidities, insomuch that hardly any remains were left, in which state they were suffocated, as of themselves, because it is only by remains that life can be given, 560 ; further ill, 561 — 565 ; especially, 562, 563. The influx of phantasies and cupidities from evil spirits is the flood which destroyed the most ancient church; argued, that this took place when remains could no longer be produced, and man could no longer be guarded by angels, 660, 661 ; compare 737 ; and see Noah. 8. The Remains of the Most Ancient Church; that it existed in the land of Canaan, especially among the Hittites and Hivites, 4429, 4447, 4454, 4493, 4517. As* to the remains of the ancient church, 4516, 4517. See Nations. 9. Further, concerning the use and procedure of Remains ; first, the fewer they are the less can man be illustrated as to rationals and scientifics; this, because the light of good and truth from the Lord flows in by remains, 530. It is by remains that the life of man is distinguished from that of brute animals, by which, in a word, he can be called man at all, br, ill. 560 ; further, 565 ; see above (5). By remains, man is prepared to undergo temptations, thus to be regene- rated, for they are the truths and goods, which oppose evils and falses in him, 711; further ill, 7^7, 857. States of infantile good and inno- cence remain to man when he is introduced into the world and its pleasures, and these remains are used to temper his evils ; how vile he would be without them, 1906; further ill, 3793, 5135. By remains of innocence from infancy to boyhood man is introduced among celes- tial angels ; by remains of charity, from boyhood to adolescence, among spiritual angels, who are of the second heaven, 5342 ; the latter especially, 5344 ; repeated, concerning the conjunction of angels, and further ill, 5897 end. Remains are remitted from the interior into the exterior, or natural man, in every state of good, but they are instantly vol. II. * B B . 1008 REM REP 1009 withdrawn and hidden when the state is evil ; this, to prevent the profanation of good and truth, G156; compare 2284; and as to profana- tion which consumes remains, and causes damnation, 6348. Gene- rally, as to the implantation of good and truth, where remains are again treated of under other terms, see Regeneration (19). 10. The use of Remains in the other li/e, ill.; this, because all the states of man return even to the least minutise, and these states of evil and the false are tempered by remains of good and truth, 561, 1906. Man's felicity in the other life is proportioned to the quantity and quahty of remains with him, 2284. 1 1 . The reservation of Remains with the TJnregenerate and the Regenerate respectively , hr, explained, 6156; compare 7560. The same further ill. showing that goods and truths in the exterior natural may be adjoined to evils and falses, and thus vastated, but not goods and truths in the interior natural, which are reserved for use in such a case, and the communication closed, 7601. The vastation of good and truth with the evil, and of evil and false with the good, br, ill., the collection of goods and truths in the midst understood by remains, 7984 ; see also 9296, and the citations in Regenera- tion (19, 20). 12. Fulness of Remains, or a full state {plenum reliquiarum), is predicated when man is admitted into temptation combats ; also, that this state is signified by thirty, and hence the priests were thirty years of age when they entered upon their office, David began to reign when he was thirty, and the Lord began his manifestation when he was thirty; passages cited, 5335. Fulness of remains further ill., that it refers to every one's capacity for good or evil, which cannot be ex- ceeded, and that it is predicated when goods and truths in this fulness are collected together in the midst; vastation explained, 7984. 13. Remains with the Lord. The Lord was introduced into states of celestial love, and afterwards into knowledges, like other men, 1 450, 1451. Remains with him, were his acquisitions of celestial good, pro- cured by combats and victories, and by which he continually united the human to the divine, 1738, 1906, 1963. Remains with the Lord are not to be compared with remains in man, for they were his own, and divine, 1 906 near the end, 4670 end. Remains with the Lord were divine goods and divine truths, which he acquired to himself by his own power, 1988, 3048, 3740; passages cited, 3975. Fulness of remains is predicated of the Lord when he was thirty years of age, at which time he began to manifest himself, 5335 ; further ill. 7984, both cited above (12). 14. Remains represented or signified in the Word; first and chiefly, by a remnant or residue; passages cited, 468, 576, 5897, 10,249 end. By numbers, chiefly by ten and tenths, 575, 576, 737, 755, 798, 813, 858, 1738, 1906, 2075, 2109, 2280, 2284, 2636, 3048, 4670, 4759, 5291, 5335, 7284, 7831, 10,221-.10,225 ; but also by various mul- tiples often, thus by eighty, 1963; by five and ten, or by five alone, 5291,5894,5916,6156—6157,6166; by fifty, 646, 813; by three and ten, or their multiple thirty, 647, 5335, 7984; by sixty, 5335; by seventy, 4670; by a hundred, 2636, 5335; by one hundred and twenty, 572, 575—579, 647; by three hundred, 646, 1709, 5955; by four hundred and thirty, 7984, 7986. See full particulars in Numbers, especially in the explanation of passages, (pp. 806 — 825.) Remains are also denoted by the living soul in the flesh, 1050. Re- presented historically, they are denoted by Noah, 468, and following passages ; afterwards by the Hittites, the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, 4429, 4447, 4454, 4493, 4516, 4517. See Nations. In the history of Joseph, the collection of remains is denoted by food stored up and guarded in the cities of Egypt, 5297, 5340, 5342 — 5344, 5897 ; and their fulness, by the age of Joseph, 5335. In another series, they are denoted by the cattle, &c. in the fields, ordered to be collected into the houses, 7556 — 7560, 7563 — 7564. 15. Goods and Truths not yet made Remains, are such as man has not yet appropriated, that is to say, which he has not yet received from affection in freedom, 6157. Thus understood, they are de- noted by four parts out of five, the fifth being taken to signify remains, 6157. REMEMBER, to \recordari\ See Memory (7). REMINISCENCE. See Memory (7), 8620. REMISS, OR Idle. See Ease. REMISSION OF Sins. See Evil (5).

See Remains (6, 7, 8); ill. and sh, at greater length, 5897, cited in Remains (1).

They who are in good desire no remunera- tion but the liberty to do good ; not so those who are in truth, 4788. The same further ill. where the name of Issachar is explained, which denotes reward or remuneration; and hence, that remuneration in its genuine sense denotes mutual love, 6388 — 6394. See Reward. RENAL SPIRITS. See Kidneys. REND, to. See Garment. RENEW, to. See Renovation. RENOVATION. The beginning of renovation is predicated after temptations, 840. The renovation of the natural man is spoken of as regeneration, 3768. The natural man is said to be renewed, when he is in the affection of receiving influx from the spiritual, 5244. REPAIR, to (Isa. Iviii. 12), denotes to amend what is false, a breach being predicated of the separation of good from truth, which is the origin of all that is false, 4926. REPAY, to [rependere]. To repay with silver, denotes emenda- tion or restoration efl'ected by truth, 9087, 9170. To repay ox for ox, denotes restitution, predicated of natural affection, 9097. Repayment or restitution also denotes punishment, because it cannot be effected without the pain of temptation, 9102. To repay double, in the same legal enactments, denotes restitution to the full, 9161. Repayment not to be made for ox, or ass, or sheep, left in trust (as to a herds- man), if it be torn (by a wild beast), denotes freedom from punish- ment when evil is done without fault, 9173. B B 2 1010 KEP REP 1011 REPAY OR RETURN, to [retribuere]. To return evil for good denotes the aversion from good of those who are ih evil, 5740. Sec Reward. REPENTANCE [pcetiiteniia]. 1. That Repentance cannot be predicated of Jehovah; because he foresees all and everything from eternity, 587. Repentance is attributed to Jehovah where compassion is meant, because in all human mercy there is a relenting or repent- ance, 588. Passages cited in which repentance is attributed to Jeho- Tah ; explained that in all such cases mercy is denoted, for the above reasons, 10,441. See Lord (72). 2. Repentance predicated of Man ; that it cannot exist without humiliation of heart arising from the acknowledgment of evil; hence the meaning of repentance in sackcloth and ashes, 4779 end. Repent- ance treated of in series with the doctrine of charity ; its commence- ment in the confession of sins, humiliation of heart, and a new life, 8387 — 8389. The confession of repentance is not the general con- fession of being a sinner, but it consists in self-examination, by which man is led actually to see his sins, 8390. They who are in the life of faith repent daily, acknowledge their evils, carefully guard against them, and supplicate the Lord for help ; the difference between the good and evil in this respect, 8391 — 8392. Repentance must take place in a state of perfect freedom, and not in a state of compulsion from lowness of spirits, illness, and the fear of death ; in such states the evil repent, but their evil life returns, 8392. Repentance must be of the life itself to avail anything, not of the lips ; and only as man thus repents, and lives according to the precepts of faith, can his sins be remitted, br. ill. 8393. If a man relapse into evils of life after repentance, his latter state is worse than his former, for then good is conjoined to evil, and he is guilty of profanation; the words of Matt, xii. 43 — 45, cited, 8394. The doctrine concerning repentance cited, and further ill, 9088. Briefly, that it is to shun all that is evil and false, from aversion thereto, 9448.

See to Answer. REPRESENTATION, Representatives. 1. What is meant by a Representative^ a Representative Church, ^c, ill. 1361 ; passages cited, 10,276. All persons and things in the world may become repre- sentative, insomuch that hardly anything which is an object of the senses can be excluded, 1361. In the Word, historical truths, which commence with the call of Abram, are equally representative with the previous made history (historica facta) ; thus, whatever is contained in the sense of the letter is such, 1403, 1404, 1408, 1409. The histori- cal facts themselves are representative, and all the words which express them are significative, thus every expression of the Word, 1408, 1409. The representatives of the Word were derived from similar things in heaven, which is full of them, 1619, 6398; see below, 2179. All things in nature are representative, because supported by the Lord's influx through heaven, 1632 ; further ill. 3483, 3484. There is nothing in heaven or earth but what is representative in some measure, of the Lord's kingdom, because all things exist and subsist by influx from the Lord; hence, those who are in divine ideas see internal things from external, so with regard to the Word, 1807, 1808, 1881; see below (20). Representatives in the Word and in rituals are derived, primarily, from similar things seen in visions and dreams by men of the most ancient church, 2179, 9457, 9481, 9577, 10,276 ; other passages cited below (17). A representative may be simply described as an image of that which is represented, as the language and gestures of a man represent his thought and will ; application of this to the Word, 3393, 4044. Representations are simply the images of spiritual things seen in natural things, and when they are truly represented, then the spiritual and natural are said to be in correspondence, 4044. Representations and significatives were well known in ancient times, not only in the church, but among the wise Gentiles, whose fables are of that character ; how much the science of representations and cor- respondences excels other sciences, 4280, 7729, 10,252 ; cited below, (7). A representative church, and a representative of the church, are similar in external form ; but in the former there is correspondence between the internal and external, in the latter there is no such cor- respondence ; ilL by examples, and passages cited, 4288. Internal things are represented, external represent; ill. by the likeness of the aff^ections and thoughts of the soul in the body, 4292. Internals that are represented are states of love and charity, which terminate in natural forms, which are representations, in the ultimate heaven, ill, 9457 ; passages cited, 9739. The church is called representative when its holy internals,- which are all things of love and faith, are exhibited in visible forms ; ill. by the discourse of Moses concerning such forms, 9457. To represent the church, without really being a church, is to regard the externals as holy and divine, without percep- tion from faith and love, 10,560. 2. Representatives and Correspondences treated of seriatim, 2987 — 3003, 3213—3227, 3337—3352. Between all things spiritual and natural there is correspondence, and those things which exist from the spiritual in the natural are representations, 2987 — 2991, 3002; ill. by expressions of the face and actions, 2988, 2989. All things in the natural world exist by influx from those which are in the spiritual world, 2990, 2999. The existence of the natural from the spiritual, and the representation of the one by the other, does not imply simi- larity of form always ; but when that is the case, they are correspond- ences also, 2991. The Author mentions his abundant experience of such a representation of spiritual things in natural ; thus, when he was thinking of the viscera, the angels followed the connection through spiritual ideas, not knowing of what he thought, 2992. In like man- ner, all things of the vegetable kingdom are from a spiritual source; and all derive their origin from good and truth, which are from the Lord, 2993. So long as man lives in the body, he cannot know much of this wisdom, because representatives and correspondences in the external appear so unlike the things in the internal man to which they correspond, 2994. The men of the most ancient church, however, could communicate with angels, because heaven had not been closed against them by evil ; hencff, in natural things they saw celestial and 1012 REP spiritual, 2995. It is well known in the other life, though quite an arcanum in the world, that heavenly societies correspond to all things in the body, insomuch that heaven is a Grand Man, and man is a little heaven, 2996—2998, 3021. This correspondence may be known from the influx of the internal man into the external, the former being celes- tial and spiritual, the latter corporeal and natural, 2997. All things in the universe, also, represent somewhat in the Lord's kingdom ; this kind of representation is ill. by worms which become butterflies, 2999, 3000. To account for this representation, there is only one life, and between this one life and its various recipients there is correspondence ; by men who are in love and charity it is received adequately, not so by those who are in the contraries, 3001. In the world of spirits repre- sentatives exist in innumerable variety, and appear almost continually ; especially, because the ideas and discourses of angels are exhibited in representatives before spirits, 3213. Such representations are given in long series, accompanied with great delight, and with a knowledge of what each particular thing signifies, 3214. For example, cities are represented when angels discourse concerning doctrinals, 3216 ; horses are represented when they discourse concerning intellectual truths, 3217; animals of various kinds, when their discourse relates to the various aff^ections, good and evil, 3218; birds, when knowledges and the mflux of thoughts form the subject of conversation, 3219 ; para- dises, vineyards, woods, meadows, and similar scenes, when the sub- jects relate to intelligence and wisdom, 3220 ; clouds of all kinds, bright or obscure, when the affirmative and negative are signified, 3221 ; flames, to represent the loves and their aff^ections ; lights, to represent truths, 3222. As a particular instance of these representations, the Author mentions a vision in which two birds appeared, noble and beau- tiful, but one other obscure and deformed ; at the same time, certain spirits who held a false opinion concerning influx (represented by the deformed bird), fell from an angelic society, 3219. Repeated, that there is correspondence between the light of heaven and the light of the world, and that all things which exist in the world's light are representatives of the heavenly, 3223, 3225. That man in the other life enjoys the faculty of perceiving the sense of representatives, and also of exhibiting them when he discourses, 3226. The general sub- ject resumed, 3337—3341; especially, the representative speech of spirits and angels, 3342—3345. See Language (3). That the human mind was represented in form by spirits from another earth on a cer- tain occasion, 3348. That a chorus of angels formed a golden crown set with diamonds, about the head of the Lord, by representations, 3350. 3. Passages concerning Representatives cited in another order; first, the above passages are referred to, 3349. The author then continues, that all things m the literal sense of the Word are representative and significative of things in the internal sense, and refers to 1404, 1408, 1409, 2763. That the Word given by Moses and the Prophets, is written by representatives and significatives, and could not be written in any other style so as to have an internal sense, and effect a commu- nication between heaven and earth, 2899. That for the same reason the Lord spake by representatives ; this additional reason being assigned that he also spake from the divine itself, 2900. That representatives and significatives in the Word, and in religious rituals, originated from REP 1013 visions enjoyed in the most ancient times, 2179; cited above (1). That representatives took their rise from the significatives of the ancient church, and these again from the perceptions of the most ancient, who had their representatives from dreams, 920, 1409, 1977, 2896, 2897. That those who collected the perceptives of the most ancient church, are signified by Enoch, 2896. That representatives of the Lord and of his kingdom continually appear in heaven, 1619. That the heavens are full of representatives, 1521, 1532. That the ideas of angels are also turned into representatives in the world of spirits, 1971, 1980, 1981. That infants in the other life are intro- duced into intelligence by representatives, 2299. That representatives in nature are from the influx of the Lord, 1632, 1881. That repre- sentatives of the Lord's kingdom exist in nature universally, 2758. That in the external man there are things which correspond, and things also which do not correspond to the internal, 1563, 1568. 4. A third collection of passages cited in order ; first, that all things in the world, in its three kingdoms, are representative of the celestial and spiritual things of the Lord's kingdom, cited 9280. That this is the case because they are all correspondences, cited 9280. That representatives appear in heaven, their origin ill., thus their quality, and why they appear, 9457, 9481, 9576, 9577. That they appear in spiritual light, and are seen by the eyes of spirits, 9574. That conjunction of the Lord with man is effected by representatives, for which reason the representative church existed, 9481; and the Word is written by representatives, 9457 end; 10,276. That all representatives in nature have reference to the human form, ill. 9496. In further illustration of this, that there is an estabhshed correspond- ence between man, and all things in man, and the heavens ; collection of passages cited, 10,030 end. That with the Israelites and the Jews there were appointed representatives of the interior things of heaven and the church, 10,149. That the Word of the Lord is heaven in ultimates, so to speak, ill, from representatives in the other life, 10,126. 5. The general law of Representation explained, viz. that nothing is reflected upon the person or the thing that represents, but upon what is represented, 665, 1097, 1361; cited below, (8) ; 4515. Any king, however bad, and of whatever country, could represent the Lord, such representation being involved in the anointing, 1361, 3670, 4281. All kings and priests at this day represent the Lord in virtue of the kingship and priesthood itself, but they become spiritual thieves if they attribute anything holy to themselves ; if they do evil at the same time, they cease to represent the kingship and priesthood of the Lord, and represent the opposites, 3670 ; cited, 3686. Passages cited, shewing that representatives had respect to holy (spiritual and celestial) things, not to persons, 9229 ; and that material things (as well as persons) were only holy representatively, 10,128, 10,149, 10,276; cited below (8). 6. Beginning of Representatives in the Church, RepresenUtives arose from scientifics or doctrinals of the ancient church, and these again from the perceptions of the most ancient, 920, 1409. The men of the most ancient church had internal worship only, and were in communication with heaven, whence all nature was to them a living theatre of the Lord's kingdom ; this state having changed, their pos- 10]4 REP REP I w tenty, signified by Caiu and Enoch, collected the doctrinals of those better times, and commenced the era of significative writing; at length, worship was commenced on mountains, or in groves, and finally, '^he altar was set up, derived from those significatives, 920; see below, 2896. In the period of the ancient churches, a certain signification was attached to every object that met the senses, and when that sig- nificative church no longer existed, the objects were made representa- tive, 1361, 1409. The representatives and significatives of the ancients were derived for the most part, from angelic representatives, seen by the men of the most ancient church in their dreams or visions, who also had a perception of what they signified, 1977 end; 2179. When representatives were adopted for worship, all internal worship had perished ; nevertheless, all that was done according to the prescribed ntual, appeared before spirits and angels, and thus effected a con- junction between heaven and earth, 1361, 4288. Representatives as ^o^ming a church commenced with the call of Abram, previous to which the state of idolatry from which the representative church was raised up is treated of, 1361 end; 1401. A summary of the develop- ment is given : first, the celestial, or the most ancient church, to whom nature was dead, except in so far as they thought of celestial and spiritual things by means of its objects; secondly, doctrinals de- rived from their ideas which formed the Word of the ancient church after the flood ; thirdly, representatives commencing from the time of Abram, when knowledges had perished, and the church became idola- trous ; lastly, the institution of such representatives with the posterity of Jacob, 1409. In the idolatrous period, or early period of Abram, the Lord (Jehovah) revealed himself by the name of Shaddai, and even the plural, ^ods, is used ; such is the nature of representations, 1992; and particularly, 2559. Representatives and significatives were derived from the most ancient church when men conversed with angels, and perceived celestial and spiritual meanings in universal nature; at length, when that communication began to cease, thev were collected by those whom Enoch represents, 2896. It was welf known in the most ancient times also, that every part of man corresponds to the brand Man of heaven, and hence certain rituals among the ancients, by QH ?r^ ^^b ^®P^^s^"^atives and correspondences were highly esteemed, 3021. Things that were held significative by the ancients, became representative with the Jews ; the difference 6r. ill., and that such representatives served to keep something of the church extant laliquid ecclesicB ^stere] till the Lord's coming, 3147. The ancient church was properly a representative church, because the internal state cor- responded with the external worship ; thus they were in a state of celestial love when they worshipped on mountains, &c., this was not the case with the representative of a church that existed among the Jews, who were only in externals, 4288. The remains of the repre- sentative church, or the church derived from the ancients, existed in Canaan among the Hittites and Hivites, when the Jews entered upon the mere representation of the church, 4429, 4431. The difference between the men of the most ancient church and of the ancient church lully described, and passages copiously cited ; shewn also that the former had no external worship, and could not have received an exter- nal ritual unless their internals had been closed, 4493. 1015 7. Representatives in the Ancient Church ; first, see above (6) 920 1361, 1409, 2896, 3147. When internal worship had ceased, or when there was no longer any charity, among those who constituted the ancient church, there still remained a representative of the church, 3268 end. The ancients had a knowledge of representatives and sigl nificatives such as are in the Word, and by their wisdom in such things they could speak with spirits and angels, 3419. These representatives were turned into magic, especially in Egypt, because the good of charity had then perished, and a communication was opened with evil spirits, ill. 6692. All that was commanded to be done in the church before the advent of the Lord was done by representatives, ill. 7417; and power was actually exercised by such representatives, 7673. The existence of the science of representations and correspondences was common in the East, as shewn by the offerings when the Lord was born,^ but that science was afterwards obliterated, especially in Europe, 8. Representatives in the Jewish Church. The posterity of Abra- ham, Isaac, and Jacob, could not be regenerated, but covenants with them were representations of regeneration; in hke manner these fathers themselves, and all the kings and priests, were representative, 665. Whatever was done in the Jewish church was changed in heaven, into corresponding representatives, 1003. Judah and Israel represented the internal church, distinguished as celestial and spiritual ; Jacob the external church ; other nations, such as make worship consist merely m externals, 1097 ; see below, 6304. The Jews were anything but celestial men, Israel was anything but a spiritual man, yet they repre- sented these things, because it is a law of representations that nothing is reflected upon the person or thing that represents, but only on what IS represented, 1097, 1361. The Jews, beyond others, made worship consist only in externals, yet this did not prevent them from represent- ing internal worship, 1097 end; 10,526, 10,560. The essential things represented were the Lord and his kingdom, thus all things of love and faith, or whatever can be predicated of the church, 1361, 3652. Kings, however base, and even beasts (as in the sacrifices), nay, inanimate objects, and all parts of the ritual, were representative, 1361, 1409. All the kings of Judah and Israel, whatever their character, represented the royalty or kingship of the Lord; all priests, m like manner, his sacerdotal oflSce, 665, 1409, 3671, 4281. The laws enacted concerning servants are cited, to shew that all such laws, and in short, the whole economy of the Jewish church, was derived from laws of truth and good in heaven, partly by correspondences, partly by representatives, and partly by significatives, 2567 near the end. Washings are mentioned as significative in the ancient church, but representative among the Jews, because the latter regarded them as means of religious purification ; the Jews, therefore, were strictly held in such rituals, in order that all conjunction of heaven with the worid might not cease, 3147; see also 4545. The Author's experience concerning representatives like those of the Jewish church which he saw in the light of heaven, viz., a tabernacle with the ark and all its furni- ture, every part of which, to the very hooks and rings, was seen to be significative, 3478. The Jews were able to represent the church in externals, for the very reason that they had no knowledge of, and no 1016 REP m will for, internal worship, ilL 3479, 10,256, 10,560. A merely representative church (as with the Jews) is only the likeness of a church, not a church really, 3480; see below, 4281. Canaan was given to the posterity of Abraham, in order that a representative church might be instituted, not because they were better than others (for they were the worst of all nations), but because they were merely in externals, and could be held to the representation, 3686, ill, 4208, 4281 ; see also 10,526, 10,560. The ritual of the Jews in regard to themselves was idolatrous, because they were in externals separated from internals; nevertheless, the genuine principle of the church could be represented, because representations have no respect to the person, but the thing represented, 4208. The church instituted with the Jews was only the representative of a church, for which reason it is called (in general terms) a representative church ; it is observed also that kings and priests, however wicked, can represent the Lord, 4281 ; see above, (5). The difference between a representative church (strictly so called), and the representative of a church, is tVZ., and it is shewn that the former existed among the ancients, but only the latter among the posterity of Jacob, 4288. The posterity of Jacob were not allowed to enter Canaan until the genuine representation had departed from them, otherwise they would have profaned holy things ; for this reason they were kept in Egypt, etc., 4289; the fuller explanation anticipated by a brief statement, 4282 ; see below, 4429. An exter- nal representative of the church was commenced in full form when the posterity of Jacob entered Canaan, because there all the places and boundaries had been representative from ancient times, 4289 end ; see below (9). It was the posterity of Jacob especially that represented the church, but not of Isaac especially, because in the latter case Esau must have been included ; still less could it have been all the posterity of Abraham, ill, 4292. The name of Jacob was changed to Israel for the sake of the representation, viz., that the internal of the church might be represented as well as the external, ill, 4292. When the Jews were in worship, their holy external was miraculously elevated to heaven, by the Lord out of them, not within them, 431 1 ; further ill, 4545. The Lord could only be representatively present with the Jews, for, in fact, they were idolaters in heart, and surrounded by evil spirits, 4311. Before the Jews were admitted to represent the church, they had lost all knowledge of interior truths, in other words, they were utterly vastated ; such truths, however, still survived among the remain- ing posterity of the ancient church in Canaan, especially those called Hittites and Hivites, 4429; compare 4516, 4874, cited below. In external form, the rituals received by the Jews were similar to those of the ancients ; the statutes, judgments, and laws which they were com- manded to observe were known in the ancient churches, 4444 ; but particularly 4449. Such representatives considered in themselves really had good in them, but in respect to the Jews they had no good, for that people were in evil, and opposed to the truth of the church, ill, 4444. When they declined to manifest idolatry their state was worse, for they no longer represented celestial and spiritual things, but the opposite infernal things ; indeed, in this case they worshipped a certain devil called up from hell, to whom they applied divine repre- sentatives, 4444, 4449. The internals signified by the representations REP 1017 of the Jewish church were those of the most ancient church the remams of which still existed among the Hittites and Hivites, 4489 Hamor and Sheckhem, with whom those remaining goods and truths existed, were descendants of the most ancient church ; but the pos- terity of Jacob were descendants of the ancient church, called the Hebrew, 4489 end ; see also, 4517. The representative of the church could be instituted with the posterity of Jacob, notwithstanding their evil quality, on the single condition that they strictly observed the statutes m external form; passages cited, 4515, 6304; see below, »o88. feuch a representative, however, could not be instituted so long as any renjams of the ancient church existed; hence, the Israelites were not admitted into Canaan, until the inhabitants of the land had consummated their iniquity, 4516; see also, 9316; cited below (9). Ihe sons of Jacob denote the mere representation of a church, but their tather Jacob the ancient representative church, ill, 4680 The representative imparted no holiness to the persons representiner, but the holiness, abstracted from the things or the persons, affected the spirits who were with them, and remotely the angels, ill, 4307. 4545 • see below, 8588. The internal as well as the external of the church was represented by the Jews, but internal things were not received; this. ?//f !.o^^? '"mJ^'® ^^'^'y ""^ "^"^^^ »"d Thamar, 4831 ; further ill, 4347, 4874. The representatives of the Jewish church were not abso- lutely the same as those of the ancient, but they were for the most part similar to those of the Hebrew church, in which burnt-offerings and sacrifices had been instituted; these representatives were not known in the genuine ancient church, with whom the internal of the church was more closely conjoined, 4874. The institution of the Jewish representatives is denoted by the return of that people to the land of their fathers (so expressed when they were in Egypt); it is repeated here also that the Jewish nation represented the celestial kingdom, and the Israehtish the spiritual kingdom, 6304. The bones of Joseph taken with them when they went up from Egypt, denote the repre- sentative ultimates, which was all that remained to them of the church ; this also shews that the external representative was not instituted amongst them until the internal was vastated, 6592. The sabbaths and festivals were instituted for the sake of the representation ; see below (11). The Jews, also, could represent holy things more perfectly than any other people, because they worshipped the externals them- selves as divine; passages cited, 8588 end; see also 8006. By such representations the holy external was miraculously elevated to heaven ; first, by nieans of simple angelic spirits, who correspond, in the Grand Man, to the skin; and secondly, by interior angels associated with the latter, but not with the Jews, 8588; see also 4311 ; cited, 9457. In order to such elevation, the evil interiors of the Jews were veiled over, so as not to appear to the spirits; and this veiling was their Q^^cfi r ^*^"* without which the representative would have perished, 8788 ; further as to sanctification, 9229 ; and in the genuine sense more particularly, 10,128, 10,276. General statement repeated con- cerning the representatives of the Jewish church; some of them enumerated ; and that they were holy representatively, not essentially, as those believe who are in mere externals, 10,149; the whole subject further tU. especially from representatives appearing among spirits. 1018 REP REP 1019 10,2/6. That the representatives of the Jewish church were truths ia the ultimates of order, and were commanded because they represented heaven with all its truths and goods, 10,728. That they were similar to representations which appear in the ultimate heaven, but less per- fect, 10,276. 9. The land of Canaan representative, viz., of the Lord's kmgdom ; the internal man represented by mount Zion and Jerusalem ; the external, by the boundaries of Canaan, the plain and river of Jordan, tiie Euphrates, and the sea, 1585. The spiritual church was formerly represented by Kiriath Arba, afterwards called Hebron, in the land of Canaan; but when Hebron was possessed by the Anakim, the repre- sentation was transferred to Jerusalem and mount Zion, sh. 2909 ; see also 2916. The most ancient church was in Canaan (567), and the ancient church was partly there and partly in many other kingdoms (1238, 2385), hence all the nations of Canaan, and all its lands and rivers became representative ; for this reason also Abraham was ordered to go into that land, and it was given to his posterity, in order that a representative church might be estabhshed, 3686, 4289 end ; passages cited, 10,276; 10,526, 10,560. The representative of heaven and the church was instituted when they entered into possession of Canaan, and at the same time the nations (Canaanites, etc.), became repre- sentative of evils and falses infesting the church, 9316. The church was instituted in Canaan for the sake of the Word, Jhat it might be written by representatives and significatives, ill. 10,276. 10. The Tabernacle representative. The tabernacle, and all things contained in it, were so ordered as to exhibit a representation of the three heavens, br. ill. 9457, 9481, 9485, 9576, 9577, 9784 ; more especially as to the representation of the Lord's presence and of worship 9784, 9963. See Tent. 11. The Sabbath representative. Sabbaths and festivals were ordered to be celebrated by the posterity of Jacob that they might be in a full representative state ; for this reason no work was allowed to be done which had respect to worldly and terrestrial things as an end, 7891 — 7893, 8886. The sabbath was the primary of all representa- tives, 10,728. See Sabbath. 12. That the principal Representatives in all Worship were the Altar and Burnt-offering, 920, 921; but particularly 9714, 9739, 10,129, 10,130. See 10,728, cited above (11). 13. Representatives since the Lord's Advent, External rites ceased to appear in heaven at the Lord's advent, man no longer being regarded from externals, but from internals, 1003. Iq ancient times it was known that the ceremonials observed at the coronation of kings were all representative, but now they are regarded as mere emblems ; a proof that the knowledge of representatives has perished, 4581. In con- sequence of the Lord's advent, the representatives of the church ceased to be ; ill. by the putting off of the body when the man comes into his spiritual state, etc., 4835. In the ancient church it was well known what internal truths were represented, but the knowledge had perished in the Jewish church ; hence, the Lord abolished representa- tives, and taught the internal truths themselves ; in place of all former representatives, he did, however, appoint baptism and the holy supper, 4904. Before the Lord's advent, the representatives of the church '^^'\''iT*"x ^f conjunction with heaven; when that couiunction perished the Lord came, and opened the internals themselves that M thi Wo?r945'7 ' ' °°^^ ™^''°' ""^ conjunction at this day is 14. Representatives in the Word, Representatives consisting of real history commence with the 12th chapter of Genesis, or the call of Abram, previous to which the history is made for the sake of the repre- sentation of heavenly things, 1361 end, 1401.

In thrancient anS'nr^nV"^"^ existed from this origin, consisting of made hS and prophesies written by representatives and significatives; some par- iculars given, 2897, 2898.

The men of the most ancient church had no written Word, and those of the ancient church in the beginning had no other than could be collected from the wisdom of the most ancient; at length the representatives and significatives which formed this Word were committed to writing, etc., 3432. Seriatim passages concerning correspondences and representatives in the Word, 347?^ i ..^P^"^s are sometimes favoured with experimental evidence of the reality of the divine representations which form the Word; one is mentioned who was elevated to the entrance of the first heaven, while the Author read the first chapter of Deuteronomy, 3473—3474 Re. presentatives increase in perfection according to degree, so that those in the first heaven are but the common form of those which appear in the second; hence in whatever degree the external representative appears. Its quality is perceived according to the internal, U75, They to whom the representatives of the Old Testament are opened, possess the key to the secrets of the Lord's church upon earth while they live in the world, and hereafter to the secrets of his kingdom in the heavens, 3478 end. AH that is recorded in the Word of the Israelites is representative, and the Lord when in the world also spake by representatives, other- wise the angels who attend men could not have understood, 3652 Itepresentations are varied according to the varying states of good and truth, and the mutations of good and truth are according to the muta- tions ot spmts and angels who are in such good and truth, ill, 4073. Ihe Lord is so variously represented in the Word, not because of varia- II I 1020 REP REP 1021 h tions in himself, but because the divine is variously received by men, 4206. The Word and its Representative are treated of distinctly under the figure of Moses and Joshua his minister; it is explained also how the literal sense of the Word is presented representatively in heaven, 9419; further concerning the holy connexion of the internal and exter- nal sense, 9430. Conjunction with the Lord is effected by the repre- sentatives of the Word, 9457 end, 10,276 end; and from such repre- sentatives the Word may be called heaven in ultimates, 10,126; compare the account of man's state, which is also built up from ultimates, 10,225. See Heaven (9). i n • • 15. Representative Images in the Mind. Divine truths flowmg-m from the Lord by the medium of the rational mind, are presented to view in the natural, as an image of many things seen together in a glass; a similar influx through heaven, causes that representatives appear in the world of spirits, 3368. Scientifics are as mirrors in which in- terior truths and goods appear representatively, 5201. See Idea, Science, Reason. 16. Representatives in the other Life, Whatever exists in nature appears also in the world of spirits, not actually as in the world, but representatively, 1807, 1808; compare 1881 cited below. The Author mentions, from experience, into what representations the various lusts are turned among evil spirits, 954. Representatives in the other life exist by influx from the Lord, and are real; for thence are all things derived in nature, 1881; see below 3485. Animals of various kinds appear before spirits, some which are merely representative and are never seen in the world; in general terms, they represent aff*ections of good and truth, or of evil and the false, 2179. Useful animals appear in the other life, when good afl'ections are spoken of, 5198; passages cited 9280. Representations in the other life could not be given except by discriminations of light and shade, the former from the Lord, the latter from the proprium of man, 3341. Representations in the other life are appearances, but alive and real because from the light of heaven, which is wisdom and life; on the other hand, things seen from the hght of the world are not real except so far as they are conjoined with those which are of the light of heaven, 3485. Examples of representative appearances connected with certain spirits seen by the Author, 5060. The beautiful representations that appear about good spirits, accord- ing to correspondence with their interior state ; even houses and palaces refulgent with gold and precious stones ; and, on the con- trary, what filthy appearances surround evil spirits, 10,194. That representatives that appear in the other life can only be seen in the light of the other life, thus, by the eyes of the spirit, which are adapted to that light, ilL 9577, 9739. See Light (2, 3), Heaven (10), Lord (16). 17. Representatives in Heaven, especially. The Author speaks of the second and third generation of the most ancient church, how mag- nificently they dwell, all around them being representative, but still, in their estimation, most real, 1116. He speaks of the mode of com- munication between spirits and angels, by discourse, and especially by ideas accompanied with ineff*able representations, 1391 ; see below, 1764. The world of spirits and the heavens are full of representatives, such as were seen by the prophets, and all such things appear in mar- vellous hght, 1521, 1522, 1619, 5313 near the end. Nothing exists in heaven but what is representative and significative ; hence, the visions of the prophets were an opening of their internal sight to perceive such representatives, and hence the representatives and significatives of the Word, because it is given from the Lord through heaven, 1619 Spmts have discoursed with the author by visual representatives every part of which was significative, 1 764. Things that exist before the angels m heaven, when received in the world of spirits, appear there as representatives ; the Author calls them visions, or things seen, 1971, 2179, cited below. The Author's experience of a similar state: he traces a dream, composed of representatives, to angelic spirits and dis- courses with them ; remark concerning the men of the most ancient church who had similar representations from dreams with a perception of what they signified, 1977. 1980, 1981 ; 6319 cited below. Sub- jects of discourse among the angels become known to spirits from representatives appearing ; thus, when the angels discourse about intel- lectual truths, horses appear, etc. 2179. Angehc speech falls into representatives and significatives when it comes down to man; to the natural sphere, 3419. In like manner there are superior representa- tions within inferior according to the heavens; thus, whatever appears m the first heaven contains inwardly what is in the second; and what- ever appears in the second, contains inwardly what is in the third; finally, those who are in the third heaven see, in place of these repre- sentatives, the Lord himself, 3475. The paradisiacal heavens are in the first heaven, at the threshold of its interiors, and they correspond to the eyes ; the gardens, flowers, and trees which appear in them, are representatives from the discourse of angels in the superior heavens ; passages cited concerning such representations in heaven, 4528. An- gelic influx causes representatives to appear, and their appearance or reception is the cause of such influx continuing [br, quod influx ange- hcus flat per representativa apparentice], 6319; compare 10,728. There are three heavens, an inmost in which the good of love reignsi a middle in which the good of charity reigns, and an ultimate in which all that is thought, said, and that exists in the prior heavens appears representatively, that is to say, as paradises, woods, fields, cities, palaces, houses, flocks and herds, &c. 9457, cited 9466, 9577, 10,276. Divine things are exhibited in visible forms in the heavens (as well as in the world), and such visible forms are representatives, 9481; re- peated, and passages cited, 9739. See Heaven (10). 18. Representative Dreams. The ideas of angels are turned into beautiful representations which are seen in vision by good spirits, and by man during sleep, 1 971, 1980, 1981. The men of the most ancient church had their dreams accompanied with a perception of what they signified, from the same source, 1977 end. The angelic spirits from whom such dreams come belong to the province of the cerebellum, because the cerebellum is wakeful when the cerebrum is asleep, 19. That Infants, in the other Life, are instructed by Representa- tives; with what beauty and delicacy this is accomplished, 2299. See Education. 20. That universal Nature is a Theatre representative of the Lord^s Kingdom, 2758, 3000, 3483. Between all things that exist in the light 1022 KES III of heaven and the light of the world correspondence is predicated, and those correspondences which exist in the world's light are representa- tions, 3225, 3226; cited, 3337. Whatever exists in nature is an ulti- mate image of somewhat in the Lord*s kingdom, because nature only exists by continual influx from the Lord, 1807, 3483; further til. 3484, 5116; see also, 10,728, cited below. All things in nature, m its three kingdoms, are correspondences, and according to such corre- spondence, they were in ancient times made representative of celestial and spiritual things ; passages cited, 9280. All things in heaven and the world have reference to good and truth, and represent more or less remotely the marriage of good and truth, 9806. The celestial and spiritual things of heaven are really terminated m the three kingdoms of nature, and hence all nature is representative of such things, br, ill. 10,728. See Influx (13), Life (2), Heaven (9). 21 . The reference of all Representatives to the Human Form, 1 he universal heaven represents one man, 7396. The externals of man are formed in the image of the world, but the internals in the image of heaven; passages cited, P279. All representatives in nature have reference to the human form, and bear a signification derived from that form and its correspondence; ilL and passages cited, 9496, 10,030 end.

In the most ancient times. The men of the most ancient church had internal respiration, and not external, except tacitly, 607. Their internal respiration, and the changes to which it was subject, were according to their state of love and faith in the Lord, 97; see below, 1118, 1119. Having only internal respiration, they RES 1023 did not speak by words, but like the angels, by ideas, which they ex- pressed by changes of the face and countenance, especially of the lips, 607; see below, 1118. This mode of expression far exceeded in power the language of words, besides which they also thought more pro- foundly, 607. In course of time internal respiration ceased, and the power of expression was lost, or became so deformed, that all that pos- terity of the most ancient church perished, 607 end; see below, 805. With the cessation of internal respiration, there occurred a total change in the state of man, for external respiration now succeeded in its place, and the ideas of thought were terminated in words, 608. The loss of internal respiration was accompanied also by the loss of perception, and as the ideas of thought were now terminated in words, man was no longer capable of instruction by the internal way ; hence doctrinals took the place of revelations, 608. The internal respiration of the men of the most ancient church is meant by the breath of lives ; also, it was such as agreed with the respiration of angels, and was varied according to every state of the internal man, br. 97; further ill. 805, 1119. The posterity of the most ancient church perished (as men- tioned above) or were suffocated, because they could no longer respire in correspondence with angels, 805; see below, 1120. With internal respiration they enjoyed also a tacit speech (besides the language of expressions mentioned above) ; the nature of this speech br. explained, and how it entered the ear by the Eustachian tube, 1118. This tacit speech was caused by the influx of internal respiration into external (so to call it), and was perceived by another in his interior man ; repeated, that it necessarily corresponded with the respiration and speech of angels, because the man of the church had communication with heaven, 1119. Explained also that this internal respiration proceeded from the navel [umbilicus] towards the heart (1118), or interior region of the breast ( 1 1 20), and that in the posterity of the most ancient church it receded towards the back part [versus regionem tergalem'], and the abdomen; also, that in their last posterity who lived immediately before the flood, internal respiration had almost entirely ceased, and when it finally receded from the breast, they were of themselves suffocated; that then external respiration and articulate language commenced with some, 1120, 7361; see Principle (1, 7); Nations (1); Percep- tion (1). 2. Respiration distinguished as Voluntary and Spontaneous; distinct choirs in the province of the lungs, in the Lord's spiritual kingdom, pertaining to each, 3351. Further experience on this subject, ex- plained also that the involuntary respiration commences as soon as man sleeps, 3893 cited below (3). 3. Respiration of Heaven; correspondence of the Heart and Lungs; seriatim, 3883 — 3896. The Author sensibly perceived four genersd operations from the influx of heaven, first, into the left part of the brain, common to the organs of reason; secondly, into the respiration of the lungs, the correspondence of which with the respiration of heaven was made evident; thirdly, into the systole and diastole of the heart; fourthly, into the kidneys, 3884. The influx into the heart was by regular pulsations, and the times of its pulse to the breathing were as three to one ; yet these pulsations were so governed that the recurring pulses of the heart coincided [se insinuabant] with those of vol, ii. c c 1024 RES RES 1025 im il the lungs at the end of every respiration, 3884. It is proved by this experience, that there is a pulse of the heart and a respiration common to the whole heaven or Grand Man ; and that these motions correspond to those of the heart and lungs in the human body, 3884 end. The common respiration of heaven was further ill. by a particular experi- ence, in which the Author observed its interior and flowing quality ; also that its times, compared with his respiration, were as three to one; his similar observation on the pulse of the heart, 3885. Nevertheless, continual variations exist according to state, and hence there are mani- fold respirations and pulses in heaven, as many in number as there are special societies, and states of love and faith, 3886, 3887. In general, heaven is distinguished into two kingdoms ; the celestial, which per- tains to the province of the heart, and the spiritual, which pertains to the province of the lungs; there is also an influx of the celestial into the spiritual, like that of the heart into the lungs, 388/. The heart and lungs rule together in every part of the body and mutually flow in, but according to the state of the parts ; the heart, also, is analogically the same as love or will, and the lungs, as faith or understanding; the latter in each case being the causes of all spiritual sensation and action, as the former of all sense and motion in the natural body, 3887 — 3890; for further particulars, see Heart. In further proof that the respiration of man corresponds with that of heaven, and that spirits and angels really breathe and live as men, the Author mentions much additional experience ; his own respiration in correspondence with heaven ; the testimony of the men of the most ancient church in con- firmation of it, 3891, 3892 ; see above (1); and the quality of those who govern the respiration, voluntary and involuntary, 3893 cited above (2). Repeated, that the respiration of spirits and angels is altogether according to their particular states of love and faith ; also, that the wicked cannot respire in heaven, or even among good spirits, but are, as it were, suflbcated, 3893, 4225, 9108, 9281 ; compare 7411 cited below (6). That the well disposed, on the other hand, are in- augurated into the respiration of heaven, by introduction into societies or choirs, where one respires as another, and perceives as another, but all in perfect freedom, 3894. That the sphere persuasive of what is evil and false in the other life, and even if it be of truth conjoined with evil, produces a suffocating effect; the Author's experience, 3895. See Principle (7). 4. Respiration of the Popes in the Consistory; its quality de- scribed, when they believe themselves to be influenced by the Holy Spirit, 3750. 5. Respiration in other Planets, The inhabitants of the moon do not speak from the lungs, but from the abdomen, because they are peculiarly circumstanced in regard to an atmosphere, 9235. The inha- bitants of Mars have internal respiration, and also speak tacitly like the men of the most ancient church, 7362. The inhabitants of one of the earths in the starry heavens are remarkable for their similar respira- tion to the inhabitants of our earth, at the same time that they have no articulate language, 10,588 ; see Language (5). 6. Signification of Respiration, or Breathing ; chiefly, that it de- notes the life of faith, 94—97, 1119, 1120, 3883—3895, 9221, 9281. The Lord breathing upon his disciples when he said, " Receive ye the Holy Spirit," denotes vivification by faith and love ; the similar mean- ing of the "breath of lives" in Genesis; generally that breathing, respiration, and therefore inspiration, denotes the life of faith, 9229. Soul [anima'] has the same signification as breathing, because derived from animation, which is, in fact, respiration ; the similar meaning of spirit, so called from wind, 9281. Jehovah, said to rest and respire on the seventh day (Ex. xxxi. 17), denotes the union of the divine itself with the divine human, when the hells were subjugated and the heavens brought into order, and hence when there was peace in heaven, 10,374. In the contrary sense, Pharaoh seeing there was respite {quod facta respiratio — a cessation — pause for breathing — Ex. viii. 15), denotes the cessation of what is undelightful and tedious in that state of evil, 7411; compare the statement above (3), 3893; see Inspira- tion, Holy (2). 7. That man respires internally as well as externally, but that his internal respiration is tacit and imperceptible to him while he lives in the world, 9281. RESPOND. See to Answer. REST [quies']. See Peace (4, 5). RESTITUTION, predicated of good and truth, 9032, 9103, 9133. RESURRECTION. 1. Experience concerning the resuscitation of man from the dead, and his entrance into eternal life; seriatim pas- sages, 168—181, 182—189, 314—319. The Author speaks from his own actual experience, not from hearsay (168), having been reduced to the state of dying, except as to thought and memory, 169. He ob- served that celestial angels occupied the province of the heart (170), and besides these, two angels were seated at his head, as occurs to every one, 1 72. The angels seated at his head were scrupulously still \tacitissimi\, only communicating their thoughts with the face ; and they judge that the person is dead when their faces are received, 173. They next induced certain changes about the province of the mouth, and thus communicated their thoughts; by this means the Author was enabled to perceive their cogitative speech, 174. He then became sensible of an aromatic odour like that of an embalmed corpse, caused by the presence of the celestial angels, the effect of which was to pre- vent the approach of evil spirits, 175. In the meanwhile the province of the heart was held strongly united with the celestial angels, of which the Author was made sensible by its beat (see Respiration), and it was given him to know that the thoughts of the dying are kept fixed upon eternal life — rarely upon salvation and happiness, 176 — 177. Having held them a sufficient time in such thoughts, the celestial angels recede, and the resuscitated spirit is associated with spiritual angels ; meantime, he is not yet aware but that he lives in the body, 178. As the interior corporeal vessels grow cold, the vital substances are separated from every part of the body : it matters not how laby- rinthine the tissues in which they were enclosed; such is the efficacy of the Lord's mercy, which the Author perceived as a strong living attraction, 179. He perceived, also, that the celestial angels at his head remained some time after he was, so to speak, resuscitated, and conversed with him tacitly, or by thought-speech ; this being the lan- guage in which they first speak to souls, 180. After this, the celestial angels being no longer present, it becomes the office of the spiritual c c 2 102G RES angels to communicate the use of light; and in doing so, the appear- ance is, that they unrol, as it were, the tunic of the left eye, towards the nose, though this is not really done ; an obscure light is then seen, and perhaps a blueish-looking cloud with a little star, 182 — 184. It then appears that something is softly removed from the face, and per- ception is induced, the angels being careful that no idea is communi- cated but what partakes of gentleness or love ; at this juncture the resuscitated person is made aware that he is a spirit, 185. He then enters upon a life which is at first delightful to him ; some of its first phenomena mentioned, especially the appearance of sitting on a horse, and the necessity of instruction manifested, 180 — 189. After this, perhaps, the spirit is not willing to be instructed, and if this be the case, he separates himself from the society of angels, and if he be evil, from that of good spirits also, and finally, associates himself with his like; thus, some are gradually conveyed to heaven, but others to hell, 314 — 316. The Author mentions two instances of spirits who were conveyed to heaven immediately after death; their first surprise and anxiety br. described, 317, 319. Repetition in a summary of some leading points in the above passages concerning the resuscitation of man, and his relapse into his own proper life, connected with seriatim passages on the Last Judgment, 2119. 2. Doctrinal and other general passages concerning the Resurree^ tion. Few at this day believe in the fact of a resurrection after death, and the learned are worse than the Sadducees of old, for they profess belief while they deny it in heart ; the Author, therefore, argues against their unbelief from his own actual experience when in the spirit ; Pre- face before^ 1886. Several things are mentioned concerning the state after death, which men may know to be so from their own reflection, if only they will use their reason, 3957. The much clearer light in which spirits live, and their enjoyment of every sense, demonstrated from the Author's conversation with some shortly after their decease ; notwithstanding, how many beheve the soul to be mere thought, or a mere phantom, and others, that they shall rise again with their bodies at the Last Judgment, etc., 4527. In the other life, also, the quality of the life of every one is openly manifested, even to the most secret ends of his thought, speech, and actions, 4633 ; repeated, with remarks concerning the Last Judgment, 4663. The Lord's words concerning the judgment are again referred to ; the judgment signified being that which is passed on every one at his resurrection, which takes place immediately after the death of the body, 4807 end. Man rises with a body, in all respects human, immediately after death, for the internal man is the human itself that lives in the body, and when separated from it enjoys all its faculties in more exquisite perfection ; also, that the body cannot again be resumed, ill. 5078; further, as to the spiritual body, 5079. Man, after death, appears such as he was in internals, not such as he was in externals, 6495 end. The state after death is determined by the whole course of the past life ; ill. by the perpetuity of the covenant made with a Hebrew servant, 8991. Recapitulation of doctrinal tenets concerning the resurrection, in seriatim passages, 10,591 — 10,597. That man can believe in God, and love God, and hence be conjoined to him by faith and love, which is really to live for ever, 10,591. That he has an internal, called the soul, which RES 10^7 receives the faculty of faith and love, and an external, called the body, which gives it effect, 10,592. That the external body in the world is accommodated to uses there, but the external in the other life is also accommodated to uses in that world, and does not die ; this external it is, that taken together with the internal, is called spirit, 10,593. That the spirit appears in a human form similar to the body with which it was clothed in the world, which is left behind never to be resumed, 10,594. That this continuation of life is the resurrection, and that there is no other resurrection to take place, as erroneously supposed, at the Last Judgment; the reason why it is so believed, 10,594. That the life of man after death is the life of his love and faith ; the quality of those briefly described whose life is respectively of hell and of hea- ven, 10,596. That man lives after death, confirmed by the Word; the case of Lazarus, of our Lord's words concerning Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and of the robber on the cross adduced, 10,597. That man immediately after death lives as a man, although it is not so believed on our earth, because men think sensually that their bodies alone live ; nevertheless, in a state of mind not influenced by doctrine concerning the Last Judgment, people believe they shall live immediately after death, variously ill. 10,758. That the souls of men after death are led into heaven, if the life had been good, in some cases slowly, in some quickly, two examples, 317, 318, 319, cited above (1). 3. The Resurrection of the Body. No man arises with the body which he had in the world ; but the Lord arose with his body, because he had glorified it, or made it divine, 5078 end ; further ill. 5079. Belief in the resurrection of the body has been permitted in order that men might have some kind of belief in the life after death; for those who make all life consist in the body, can have no idea of another state of existence derived from the knowledge that there is an internal man, 4459, 5078, 7802 end. 4. The Resurrection of the Lord ; chiefly, that it involves all that is holy, and the resurrection of all, 901. The resurrection of the Lord on the third day, has reference to the holy signification of that number, in common with seven, sh. 901; but particularly 2405, 2813, 2917 ; cited below (6). In the Lord all is divine, not only the internal and interior man, but the exterior and the very body, wherefore he alone arose into heaven as to the body, sh. 1729; or (as it is also ex- pressed) arose from the dead as to the body, 2083; or (again) from the sepulchre, 5078, 10,825; see Lord (41). 5. The Bead that arose at the Lord's Crucifixion (John xxvii. 52, 53) ; explained, that they were seen in vision, and that their appear- ance signified the salvation of those who belong to the spiritual church, and their elevation into the holy Jerusalem, which is heaven, 8018, 9229 end; see also 2916. 6. Signification of Rising. To rise denotes entrance into life, by which is to be understood the life of faith in the Lord, sh. 290. The rising or resurrection of the Lord on the third day has reference to his continual rising in the minds of the regenerate, in whom he operates the good of love and faith, 2405 end. His resurrection on the third day also involves the resuscitation of truth divine in the consummation of the age ; hence, that the Lord would appear as the Son of Man, 2813. To bury signifies to arise, in the sense of resurrection into life ; 1028 RET REV 1029 and to rise from the dead, denotes from the state of shade or night, that is, of ignorance; such is the emergence or resurrection of the Lord in man, and so he arises in all who are regenerated, 2917. To die, denotes resurrection into hfe and regeneration, and to sicken for death, the procedure [succesivum] of regeneration, ill. and confirmed from common experience, 6221. RESUSCITATION. See Resurrection. RESUSCITATION OF THE CHURCH; that there is no hope of it if there be no internal, as represented by Joseph, no medium as represented by Benjamin, and no charity, or faith in the will, repre- sented by Simeon, 5551. RETALIATION. The injury which any one desires to do to another reverts upon himself; this, according to the law of order, that evil and the false carry with them the punishment of evil, 391, 696, 967, 101 1, 1857, 6559. It was from this law of order that the ancients derived their jus talionis or law of retaliation, 101 1, 8223. This law of order, illustrated by a particular instance in the history of the Israelites when pursued by the Egyptians; stated also, that Q\ery good has its own recompense as well as every evil, 8214; further t7/.'and ah. 8223, cited 8226. Statement of the general law, in its application both to good and evil repeated; the meaning of a "law of order" explained; and our Lord's words concerning the old saying, " An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," etc., unfolded in their spiritual signification, 9048 or 9049 (the regular succession of the numbered paragraphs being in- terrupted). A particular instance of the operation of this law with those who belong to the societies of interior friendship in the other hfe, 4805. RETRACTION. As to the retraction of the natural man, how he shrinks from coming under spiritual subjection, 5647, 5650. As to the retraction of divine influx in accommodation to the states of angels and men, 5479. RETRIBUTION. See Reward. RETURN, to [revertt]. To return, where it is said Abraham re- turned to his place (Gen. xviii. 33), retains the same general meaning in the spiritual sense, but refers to state, 2288. To return back, or look wistfully back [respicere], predicated of Lot's wife (Gen. xix. 26 ; Luke xvii. 31, 32), denotes aversion from good, and a preferential re- gard for mere doctrinals, 2454. To return to feed and guard the flock, predicated of Jacob when he was shepherd to Laban (Gen. xxx. 31)] denotes application to use, namely, the good represented by Laban admitted to use in the introduction of genuine good, 3991. To return to the land of his fathers, and to the land of his nativity, predicated of Jacob (Gen. xxxi. 3, 13), denotes the nearer approach to divine good, and conjunction with the good of truth, 4069, 4094. Laban said to return to his place, after parting with Jacob (Gen. xxxi. 55), denotes the resumption of a prior state, or the end of the representation by Laban, 4217. Esau returning to Seir, after he had m
