Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 4. These things are revealed to the soul by Divine truth, and it is perceived that these are the heavenly states promised in the Word to all things in the mind derived from the celestial, spiritual, and natural principles of the Lord's Divine Humanity (see chap Deuteronomy 1:8, Note); this is perceived by means of Divine truth, but that principle alone cannot conduct the soul thither.
