Nurse

  

In Genesis 21:7, this signifies to implant truth from good, or something spiritual from a celestial origin. (Arcana Coelestia 2643)

In Psalm 8:2, this signifies that praise can come to the Lord only through innocence, for this alone effects all communication and all influx. (Arcana Coelestia 5236[4]) 'The nurse,' in Genesis 24:59, signifies a state of innocence. 'The nurse,' in Genesis 35, signifies hereditary evil. 'A nurse,' as she feeds and nurses an infant, properly signifies the introduction of innocence by the celestial spiritual. But when 'Deborah, the nurse of Rebecca died and was buried,' it signifies that hereditary evil which the Lord received from His mother, which was nourished from infancy just like with other people, was later totally expelled forever.

Love correspondence

  
tiny hand my love, by Jenny Stein

To some degree, there really is no spiritual meaning to the word “love” in the Bible. Why? Because if you truly love another, that is already a spiritual state. To put it simply, the Lord is Love Itself, a perfect and infinite love that is the source of all actual life and substance in the universe. Thus everything we are and everything we experience is a product of the Lord's love; there is no way for us to have any love from ourselves that is not ultimately the Lord's love, because the Lord's love is everything. When we feel love, what we're really doing is opening ourselves to be a conduit for the Lord's love -- truly a spiritual state. This also means that the more we can align our love with the Lord's love, the stronger our experience of love will be. The Lord's love is a constant desire to be conjoined with us, to be able to love us fully while protecting our right to choose. So the more we try to love that way, the more in harmony with Him we will be and the more powerful our feelings of love will be. In a general sense, then, most uses of “love” in the Bible represent a desire for union, connection, powered, and enriched by the Lord.

In Matthew 6:24, this signifies celestial of love. (Arcana Coelestia 3875[3])

In Malachi 2:11, this signifies to conjoin oneself with falsity. (Arcana Coelestia 4434[3])
