9299. 'And the fat of My feast shall not remain through the night until morning' means the good of worship, which does not originate in the self but comes from the Lord and is always new. This is clear from the meaning of 'remaining through the night' as that which originates in the self, for 'the night' in the Word means evil and falsity, 221, 709, 6000, 7776, 7851, 7870, 7947, thus also the self since the human self or proprium is nothing other than evil and falsity, 210, 215, 694, 874-876, 987, 1023, 1044, 4328, 5660, 5786, 8480; from the meaning of 'the fat' as the good of love, dealt with in 353, 5943, at this point the good of love present in worship since the words that are used are 'the fat of [My] feast' and worship is meant by 'a feast', 9286, 9287, 9294; and from the meaning of 'morning' as the Lord and His coming, as becomes clear from what has been shown regarding 'the morning' in 2405, 2780, 5962, 8426, 8427, 8812, so that 'the morning' here, where the good of worship originating not in the self is referred to, means that which comes from the Lord and is always new.

Arcana Coelestia # 7851

7851. 'On that night' means when the damnation of the evil takes place. This is clear from the meaning of 'night' as a state of devastation of truth and good, dealt with in 221, 709, 2353, 7776, and so damnation. For when truth and good are no longer present, only falsity and evil, there is damnation, at this point the damnation of the ones who molested those belonging to the spiritual Church.
