100. In what way the Lord is the Word is something few people understand, for they think that it is possible indeed for the Lord to enlighten and teach a person by means of the Word, and yet not that He can for that reason be called the Word. But be it known that everyone embodies his own love, and so his own goodness and his own truth. A person would otherwise not be human, and nothing in him would be human.

It is because a person embodies his own goodness and own truth that angels and spirits are human. For every good and every truth emanating from the Lord is, in its form, human.

The Lord, however, is Divine goodness itself and Divine truth itself. Thus He is supremely human, on whose account every person is human.

That every Divine good and Divine truth is, in its form, human, may be seen in the book, Heaven and Hell 460. And it will be seen still more clearly in treatises to follow, which will have as their subject Angelic Wisdom.
