Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 12. And all things in the soul must act from them as one; both the understanding, the affections, the undeveloped faculties, and the external things of the memory that serve the spiritual man, that they may attend to and receive the instructions from heaven, and fear to act contrary to Divine goodness and truth, and make it their chief study to conform their life to the Divine law;And that the innocent and undeveloped faculties of the mind which have not yet been receptive of either good or evil may thus receive influx from heaven, and thus be taught to fear to act against Divine goodness and truth in all the new internal states to which the soul is progressing.
