9939. And it shall be upon Aaron’s forehead continually. That this signifies a representative of the Lord’s love to eternity, is evident from the signification of “the forehead,” as being love (see n. 9936); from the representation of Aaron, as being the the Lord, (n. 9806); and from the signification of “continually,” as being to eternity. That “continually” denotes to eternity, is because all things that belong to time, when said of the Lord, signify eternal things; therefore also “continually.” For “continually,” “daily,” and “always,” are predicated of time. From this also it is that “yesterday,” and “today,” when said of the Lord, likewise signify that which is eternal (n. 2838).
