3037. 'And who spoke to me, and who swore to me, saying' means the Divine itself from whom came His Divine will and understanding. This is clear from the meaning of 'speaking' as perceiving, dealt with in 3029, and also as willing, 2626; and from the meaning of 'swearing' as confirmation from the Divine and as that which has reference to truths which belong to the understanding, 2842. When Jehovah is referred to as 'speaking' the meaning in the internal sense is that He wills, for whatever Jehovah speaks He also wills. But when Jehovah is referred to as 'swearing' the meaning in the internal sense is that He understands it to be true. Thus when used in reference to Jehovah, 'swearing' means understanding, as becomes clear also from the places quoted from the Word in 2842.
'Man of war' signifies truth fighting falsity and destroying it. It also signifies truth derived from good, and destroying falsity.
