亞倫
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。

火
火，在精神意义上，根据上下文，既可以意味着爱，也可以意味着恨，就像自然之火既可以让你感到舒适，让你感到温暖，也可以让你感到害怕，让你的房子烧毁。我们的语言也反映了这一点--我们使用的概念，比如燃烧的仇恨或燃烧的爱。所以，火就是爱，要么是对邻居和对主的爱，要么，在不好的意义上，是对自己的爱，如果不受良心的约束，会导致对任何反对它的人的仇恨。

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。

眼睛
当我们明白一件事的时候，常说 "我看见了"。而事实上，"看见 "在圣经中代表了对属灵事物的把握和理解。所以，让我们看见的眼睛代表智力，让我们理解属灵的东西，这是有道理的。 当然，这也可以用在消极的方面，《圣经》中讲到人有眼睛，却不肯看，主在世的时候就劝拔掉一只犯眼。这些都代表着拒绝承认真理，或被假象误导。

門
从一般意义上讲，《圣经》中的门代表了人们最初的向善欲望和对真理的概念，将人们的爱和理解引入新的层次，甚至是主自己。 不过根据背景，有很多具体的内容。因为 "房子 "代表了一个人的欲望、情感和激情，门的作用是引入真正的想法，可以把这些欲望付诸行动。在更广泛的情况下，门是通向天堂本身的。 而在某些情况下，其含义被带到了一个非常具体的层面。例如，圣经时代的住宅往往有内门和外门来保护。创世记19章中，当罗得试图说服所多玛的人不要调戏探望他的天使时，他其实是去了内门外，但却留在了外门内。外门代表着对善的渴望，对所多玛男人所代表的虚假有抵抗力；内门代表着从善的渴望中涌现出来的真实想法。培养善的欲望的人可以从第一道门进入，但在从第二道门进入之前，必须学习如何表达这种欲望的真理。 提到门柱和门楣，也要区分介绍性商品和介绍性真理。
長老
圣经中提到长老主要有两个方面。首先是以色列的长老，其次是启示录中24位坐在神宝座旁的长老。在这两种情况下，他们都是指智慧，智慧来自于我们在日常生活中运用所学到的真理去做正确的事。以色列的长老指的是称为以色列的教会中智慧的主要事物。启4章提到的长老指的是最高天的智慧，进而指的是整个天的智慧。 就像圣经中的大多数含义一样，这可以根据上下文的不同而改变为一个被扭曲成相反的含义。这种爱不是充满知识和爱邻舍的心，而是可以被扭曲为对自己的自我智慧的骄傲，并导致走向邪恶而不是善良。在该亚法家坐着审判耶稣的长老和祭司长，显示了代表的另一面。

亞倫的
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。
聖
'To sanctify' denotes being led by the Lord. 'To sanctify' denotes being incapable of being violated.
壇
圣经中提到的第一个祭坛是挪亚从方舟中出来后所建造的。在那祭坛上，他把洁净的动物献给了耶和华。山代表着耶和华，因为山是高高在上，我们在与主 "说话 "的时候，必须把自己的思想抬高到属世的事物之上。祭坛是一座小小的人造山，但当用在敬拜的时候，就能唤起这种思想的升起，火和烟被送上来，象征性地送上主。祭坛大多是用未切割的石头做成的。石头代表真理，未被人塑造的石头代表真理，未被人塑造的石头代表来自于道的真理，未被掺杂的真理。清净的兽代表着善事，代表着因为正确而做的慈善行为，而清净的鸟代表着对教义和行为的思考，代表着什么是正确的。所以呈现这些东西，就是承认我们从主那里得到了这些东西，并为这些东西感谢祂。 在以色列人的会幕中，燔祭坛代表善的承认，香坛代表真理。因此，这个大一点的祭坛在门外，是用黄铜做的，代表自然的善，而香坛是用金子做的，代表对耶和华的爱，从耶和华那里来的是真理。

Coming (Gen. 41:14) denotes communication by influx.
四
圣经中的数字 "四 "代表着事物被联系在一起或连接在一起。这部分是因为四是二乘以二，而二代表了我们对美好的愿望和对真理的理解之间的最终联系。我们也可以从大多数建筑都是长方形的事实中看到，四条边连接在一起，成为一个整体。我们也把方向分为北、东、南、西四个方向，谈到某件事情的 "四角 "就是指全部。所以我们的特殊思维很自然地把四条边看成是连成一个整体。
