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。

回來
在《圣经》中，有很多描述人回头看、回头看或回去的例子。在大多数情况下，这是一种消极的，有时是毁灭性的（就像罗得的妻子，当她回望所多玛的毁灭时，变成了一根盐柱子）。一般情况下，这代表着我们的状态，当我们进入到一个新的精神境界，发现自己希望得到旧的安逸和轻松时，回去代表着回到更早的低级阶段。 当 "回 "与物联系在一起的时候，"回 "的意义更多的是字面意义。当有人拿东西回来或给东西时，其精神意义大多是以物与行为人为中心。
