5076. That they sinned. That this signifies inverted order, is evident from the signification of “sinning,” as being to act contrary to Divine order: whatever is contrary to this is “sin.” Divine order itself is Divine truth from Divine good. All are in this order who are in truth from good, that is, who are in faith from charity, for truth is of faith, and good is of charity; and they are contrary to this order who are not in truth from good, consequently who are in truth from evil, or in falsity from evil; nothing else is signified by “sin.” Here by their “sinning”—the butler and the baker—is signified that external sensuous things were in inverted order relatively to interior things, so that they did not accord or did not correspond.
