Arcana Coelestia # 137
137. THE INTERNAL SENSE
The first three chapters of Genesis deal in general with the Most Ancient Church, which is called Man, from its earliest down to its final period when it perished. The foregoing section of this chapter dealt with it in its absolute prime when it was a celestial man. The present section deals with those people, and their descendants, who set their heart on the proprium.
Seven angels
'The seven angels,' as in Revelation 15:1 and 16:1, signify heaven and the Lord in the highest sense.
