Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 18. And the soul has a clear perception from Divine truth in that state, that the Divine goodness and wisdom have gifted it with power to attain spiritual life in the natural mind, and that these newly-acquired powers should advance to combat with evil with all their might as far as they are enabled, and so go before the other faculties of the mind and prepare the soul for the reception of true love and charity in the internal mind.
