亚伦
亚伦是摩西的兄弟。他象征着两件事，一是在出埃及记的前半部分，他是摩西的代言人，二是在大帐幕建成后，他被任命为大祭司之后。 在故事的第一部分中，摩西代表了道的真实面目，就像在天上所理解的那样，而亚伦则代表了道的外在意义，就像人在世上所理解的那样。这就是为什么他为摩西说话，耶和华对他说："他要为你们作口，你们也要对他作神。"(出埃及记 4:16). 后来，当亚伦穿上他的礼服时（见利未记各章 8, 9他被任命为以色列的大祭司。在这个角色中，亚伦代表耶和华，代表神的善，而摩西代表耶和华，代表神的真理。
天
"空气 "在《圣经》中代表了思想，但以一种非常笼统的方式--更像是我们感知思想的能力和我们倾向于思考的方式，而不是我们对具体事物的具体想法。 仔细想想，这也是有道理的。我们通过空气看到周围的世界，看到对应于理解。我们通过空气听到，而听觉对应着被教化和服从。鸟儿在空中飞翔，它们代表着具体的思想和观念。而呼吸本身--吸进空气，将氧气传递到血液中--代表着我们对真正的精神理念的理解。

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。
