'Wood' signifies good, as well the good of love to the Lord as the good of charity towards our neighbor.

(Odkazy: Arcana Coelestia 3969)

2812. 'And laid the pieces of wood in order' means the righteousness that was allied to it. This is clear from the meaning of 'the pieces of wood for a burnt offering' as the merit of righteousness, dealt with above in 2784, 2798, and of 'laying the pieces of wood in order on the altar' as allying it to the Divine human. The merit of righteousness is allied when it is present, and there is from truth the conviction that it belongs to Him.
