10055. 'A fire offering to Jehovah' means all things springing from Divine Love. This is clear from the meaning of 'a fire offering to Jehovah' as that which springs from Divine Love; for 'fire' in the Word means love in both senses, and when used in reference to Jehovah or the Lord it means Divine Love. For the meaning of 'fire' as love in both senses, see 4906, 5215, 6314, 7324; and for its meaning - in the highest sense, in which Jehovah or the Lord is the subject - as Divine Love, 6832, 6834, 6849. A burnt offering is called 'a fire offering to Jehovah' because when the Divine took on the Human, from that Human fought against and subdued the hells, and at the same time united it to the Divine, in order to save the human race, He did so out of pure love. That uniting is meant by a burnt offering, see 10042, 10053.
7011. 'And you are to take this rod in your hand' means Divine power in these [two kinds of truth]. This is clear from the meaning of 'rod' as power, dealt with in 4013, 4015, 4876, 4936, especially when it is held in the hand since 'hand' means spiritual power and 'rod' natural power.
There is no power at all in the natural unless it receives it from the spiritual, just as a rod has none unless it is held in the hand; and that is why it says that he was 'to take it in his hand'. Used in reference to the Lord 'hand' means the power going forth from His Divine Rational, and 'rod' the power going forth from His Divine Natural, see 6947. Divine power is said to be in these - the kinds of truth dealt with above - because power has reference to truth, 3091, 6344, 6427, 6948.
