10606. 'And you shall stand with Me there on the top of the mountain' means coming from the inmost heaven, where Divine Love is. This is clear from the meaning of 'Mount Sinai' as heaven, from which revelation comes, dealt with in 8805, 8931, 9420; and from the meaning of 'the top' or the peak of it as the inmost heaven, dealt with in 9422, 9434. Where Divine Love is is meant because celestial love, which is love to the Lord that has been received from the Lord, reigns in the inmost heaven, while spiritual love, which is charity towards the neighbour, reigns in the lower heavens, see 10438. From this it is evident that 'be ready by the morning; and you shall come up to Mount Sinai, and you shall stand with Me there on the top of the mountain' means a new beginning in the revelation of Divine Truth coming from the inmost heaven, where Divine Love is, thus coming from Divine Love. From there also the Word, which is Divine revelation, comes down.
