Տեսան նրան նաեւ փարաւոնի իշխանները, գովեցին նրան փարաւոնի առաջ ու նրան տարան փարաւոնի պալատը:
Ծննդոց 12:15
Arcana Coelestia # 1300
1300. 'Clay' means the good from which the mind or the member of the Church is formed. This too is clear from the Word, as in Isaiah,
But now, O Jehovah, You are our Father, we are the clay, and You are our potter; and we are all the work of Your hands. Isaiah 64:8, 9.
'Clay' stands for the member himself of the Church who is being formed, and so stands for good stemming from charity by means of which the formation, that is, the reformation and regeneration, of every man is achieved In Jeremiah,
Like the clay in the hand of the potter so are you in My hand, 1 O house of Israel. Jeremiah 18:6.
Here too 'clay' has a similar meaning. Whether reference is made to building with clay or to forming from it, it amounts to the same.
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. The Latin means so are we in Your hand, but the Hebrew means so are you in My hand, which Swedenborg has in another place where he quotes this verse.
