10082. And thou shalt put all upon the palms of Aaron, and upon the palms of his sons. That this signifies the acknowledgment in the heavens that these things are of the Lord and from the Lord, is evident from the signification of “all” that was from the ram, as the fat, the kidneys, and the right hind quarter, and of “all” that was in the basket, as the bread, the cake, and the wafer, as being the Divine goods and Divine truths which are of the Lord because from the Lord (on which see n. 10070-10080); and from the signification of “the palms,” as being those things which are from one’s own power, thus one’s own (of which below); and from the representation of Aaron and his sons, as being the Lord as to Divine good and the Divine truth thence proceeding (n. 9806, 9807, 10017). That “the palms” denote those things which are from one’s own power, and hence that to be “put upon the palms” denotes the acknowledgment that all these things are of the Lord and from the Lord, is because the palms belong to the hands, and by the “hands” is signified power, and “to put upon them” denotes to ascribe, thus to acknowledge; for it is said that they were to be “waved upon them,” by which is signified life thence from the Divine, and life from the Divine is given through faith, the first of which is acknowledgment. As by the “hands” is signified power, it follows that by the “palms of the hands” is signified full power, because the palms grasp fully; hence when the palms are predicated of the Lord, and of the Divine truth proceeding from His Divine good, as here, omnipotence is signified. From this it is plain that by “putting upon the palms of Aaron and his sons” is signified the acknowledgment of the Lord’s omnipotence, thus that all things are His, because all things in the heavens are from Him. (That the “hands” denote power, see n. 4931-4937, 5327, 5328, 6947, 7188, 7189, 7518; that “hand” and “right hand,” when said of the Lord, denote omnipotence, n. 3387, 4592, 4933, 7518, 7673, 8050, 8153, 8281, 9133; and that the Divine truth proceeding from the Lord’s Divine good has all power, n. 6948, 8200, 9327, 9410, 9639, 10019)
