5320. “把金项链戴在他的颈项上” 表一个外在标志, 表示内层事物与外层事物的联结; 实现这种联结的, 是良善. 这从 “颈项” 的含义清楚可知, “颈项” 是指流注, 以及高层事物与低层事物的联系, 或也可说, 内层事物与外层事物的联系 (参看3542节); 因此, “项链” 由于环绕脖子, 故是表示这些事物联结起来的一个标志. “金项链” 表示经由良善的联结, 或通过良善实现的联结, 因为 “金” 表示良善 (113, 1551, 1552节). 以西结书中 “戴在颈上的项链” 就表示一个标志, 表示内层真理与外层真理的联结

我用妆饰打扮你, 将镯子戴在你手上, 将项链戴在你颈上. (以西结书 16:11)

In general, mothers in the Bible represent the Lord's church on earth. In some cases "mother" more specifically refers to the truth of the church, the true teachings the church has about the Lord and about life. This makes sense if you think about it. Mothers are the vehicles through which new people are created; the church (in a broad sense) is the vehicle through which new ideas about the Lord and new good actions are created. And just as a mother is filled with love -- for her children and husband -- so also is the church filled with love, both for its ideas and uses and also for the Lord.
