Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 11. The soul must not be clothed with truths from diverse origins at the same time; thus not from those derived from the love of good, which is celestial; and those derived from the love of truth, which is spiritual (Arcana Coelestia 9470). [Note (verses 10-11).—These verses also signify that those who are in the love of good ought not to regard good and truth as separate things; in fact, to them truth is only truth so far as it is good, in its origin, in the end regarded, and in its effects. (See Arcana Coelestia 5895.)]
