10118. 'And thus you shall do to Aaron and his sons' means this whole process, representative of the glorification of the Lord and of His influx into the heavens and into the Church. This is clear from the representation of 'Aaron' as the Lord in respect of Divine Good that is celestial, dealt with in 9809, and from the representation of 'his sons' as the Lord in respect of Divine Good that is spiritual, dealt with in 10068; and from the meaning of 'thus doing' - that is, anointing them and filling their hands, and thereby consecrating them to the priestly office - as in order that they may represent the Lord's glorification of His Human, and the influx from His glorified Human into the heavens and into the Church. For 'anointing' was representative of the glorification of His Human, and 'filling the hand' was representative of His influx from the glorified Human into the heavens and into the Church.

Anointing represented the Lord's Divine Good within His Divine Human, see 9954, consequently the glorification, that is, the uniting of the Divine Human to Divinity itself, called the Father, 10053.

Filling the hand represented the Lord's Divine power exercised through Divine Truth in the heavens and in the Church, and the transmission and reception of that Truth there, 10019, and so represented the influx of it.
