神
主是爱本身，以智慧本身的形式表达。爱是他的本质，也是他的全部。智慧-对如何将爱付诸行动的热爱理解-稍微有点外在，为爱提供了一种表达自我的方式。 当圣经说“耶和华”时，它代表的是至高无上的爱，这是主的本质。那爱本身就是一个完整的整体，而爱也是一个，只适用于主的名字。然而，智慧表达在各种各样的思想和观念中，这些著作统称为神的真理。也有许多虚构的神，有时天使和人也可以被称为神（耶和华说摩西将成为亚伦的神）。因此，当圣经称上帝为“上帝”时，多数情况下是指神圣的真理。 在其他情况下，“上帝”指的是所谓的神圣人类。情况是这样的： 作为人类，我们不能直接将主作为上帝的爱来参与。它太强大了，太纯净了。相反，我们必须通过神圣的真理了解他来接近他。因此，神圣的真理是人类形式的主，这是我们可以接近和理解的形式。因此，“上帝”也被用来指代人类这一方面，因为它是真理的表达。

战争
道上的战争代表着试探性的战斗，当善的东西被恶的或假的东西攻击时。攻击的邪恶来自于地狱的众多社会中的一个，它的运作方式是唤起我们心中的自私的爱，而这种爱是与我们所知道的正确的东西相反的。然后，我们自私的爱攻击滋养着希望成为一个好人的爱，于是我们的心中就有了战争。这以以色列人的子民在迦南地及其周围的战争为代表，在旧约圣经中有很长的历史。自私的爱从我们的遗传中在我们的心中泛滥成灾，而善良的爱随着我们的良知的发展而长久地伴随着我们的良心而来。如果我们没有良知，我们就不可能受诱惑，我们会立刻顺着私心的意愿而屈服。但最终的结果是，我们会被地狱所奴役，为所欲为。

骨
骨头是强壮和支撑性的，为我们的身体提供了一个框架，使运动和行动成为可能。它们也是我们身体中最没有 "生命力 "的部分，它们的大部分结构是由矿物基质构成的。因此，它们代表着我们的精神构成中一个强大的、支持性的、功能性的、但天生近乎于死亡的部分：文字中所说的 "本体"。 本体是我们中感觉到生命是我们自己的一部分，感觉到我们的爱和我们的思想来自于我们自己。这是做人的一个重要而有力的方面；因为它，我们要承担起改革自己的思想和指导自己行动的责任，并感到有能力接近主。这就是 "强大的、支持性的功能 "的部分。但这种自我感觉也是错误的、受骗的，因为事实是，我们的生命来自于主，主是我们爱和思想的源头。这就是 "先天近乎死亡 "的部分。 如果我们只是跟随本体而不仰望主，就会把我们引向地狱般的境界，在这种境界中，我们认为自己是万能的，完全否定了主的存在。骨头，靠着自己的力量，会变得干枯，变脆，完全死亡。然而，如果我们承认主并跟随他，就像在骨头上装上肉，就像在骨头上装上了肉，就有了生命。在这种情况下，骨头--强壮、支持、保护、保护，并尽可能地活着--就代表了本体与智力的关系，也就是我们中把自己的思想视为自己的那部分，但又把它们转向主的那部分。骨头上的肉代表了本体的爱的一面，那部分人把我们的欲望当作自己的欲望，但又利用骨头提供的结构来服侍主。
