6379. 'His eyes are red from wine' means that His Intellect or Internal Human is nothing else than good. This is clear from the meaning of 'red' as the good of love - a meaning that is derived from 'fire' and 'blood', which are red, dealt with in 3300 - so that 'red from wine' means that it is nothing else than good; and from the meaning of 'eyes' as the intellect or understanding, dealt with in 2701, 3820, 4403-4421, 4523-4534. And Since the Lord is the subject here, His Internal Human is what is meant here by His Intellect; for His External Human is meant, as now follows, by the words 'teeth white from milk'.
