Heaven and Hell # 214

214. The form of government in the Lord's heavenly kingdom is called justice, since all the people there are intent on the good the Lord's love does in and through us, and anything that results from this good is called just. This government belongs to the Lord alone. He leads them and teaches them in matters of life. The truths that we associate with judgment are engraved on their hearts. Everyone knows them, grasps them, and sees them. 1 So matters of judgment never come into dispute for them, only matters of justice that are matters of life. The less wise ask the wiser ones about them, and they in turn ask the Lord and bring back the responses. Their heaven - their deepest delight - is to live justly from the Lord.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. [Swedenborg's footnote] Heavenly angels do not think and talk on the basis of truths the way spiritual angels do, because they enjoy a perception of all matters of truth from the Lord: 202, 597, 607, 784, 1121, 1387 [1384?], 1398, 1442, 1919, 7680, 7877, 8780, 9277, 10336. Concerning truths, heavenly angels say, "Yes, yes," or "No, no," while spiritual angels consider whether they are true or not: 2715, 3246, 4446 [4448?], 9166, 10786; where explanation is given of the Lord's words, "Let your conversation be 'Yes, yes,' 'No, no'; anything beyond this is from evil" (Matthew 5:37).

Arcana Coelestia # 7291

7291. 'You shall say to Aaron' means influx and communication - of the law of God, represented by Moses, with the doctrinal teachings, represented by 'Aaron'. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', when done by Moses to Aaron, as influx and communication, as in 6291. Here 'saying' is similar in meaning to 'speaking', namely both influx and communication, which is meant by 'speaking', see 7270. The only way that this influx and communication can be expressed in the historical narratives of the Word is by the words 'saying and 'speaking'. The reason why the law of God, represented by 'Moses', was to flow into the doctrinal teachings, represented by 'Aaron', is that the law of God is internal truth, while doctrinal teachings are external truth; and it is a general rule that internal things flow into external, not the other way round, for the reason that internal things are more refined than external, whereas external things are grosser, being generalized expressions of the internal ones.
