Arcana Coelestia # 10651
10651. And thou take of his daughters for thy sons. That this signifies the conjunction of the affections of evil with truths, is evident from the signification of “taking,” when said of marriage, as being to be conjoined; from the signification of “daughters,” as being the affections of good, and in the opposite sense the affections of evil (see n. 2362, 3963); and from the signification of “sons,” as being truths (n. 489, 491, 533, 1147, 3373, 4257, 9807, 10490).
Arcana Coelestia # 491
491. The same things are signified by “sons” and “daughters” in this chapter (verses 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 26, 30), but such as is the church, such are the “sons and daughters” that is, such are the goods and truths; the truths and goods here spoken of are such as were distinctly perceived, because they are predicated of the Most Ancient Church, the principal and parent of all the other and succeeding churches.
