10098. 'And the holy garments which are Aaron's' means the Divine Spiritual emanating directly from the Divine Celestial. This is clear from the meaning of 'Aaron's garments' as a representative sign of the Lord's spiritual kingdom lying adjacent to His celestial kingdom, dealt with in 9814, thus also the Divine Spiritual; for the Lord's spiritual kingdom owes its existence to what is Divine and the Lord's there, which is called the Divine Spiritual. The whole of heaven consists in nothing other than what is Divine and the Lord's, for angels there know, acknowledge, believe, and perceive that all the good of faith and good of love which compose heaven originate in the Lord, and none at all in themselves. Aaron's garments are called 'the holy garments' because they represented Divine and holy things which originate in the Lord.

The Lord alone is Holy, everything holy originates in Him, and every ritual sanctifying some person or thing represented Him, see 9229, 9680, 9818, 9820, 9956, 9988.

Heaven is therefore called a sanctuary or especially holy place, 9479.
