Loins
The loins, as in Ezekiel 29:7, signify the marriage of truth and good. In general, loins signify love, and when referring to the Lord, divine love. They can also signify the interiors of conjugial love. In Isaiah 11:5, they signify people in the divine good of love, and reins signify people in love towards their neighbor.

Heaven and Hell # 59
59. ALL HEAVEN IN THE AGGREGATE REFLECTS A SINGLE MAN.
That heaven in its whole complex reflects a single man is an arcanum hitherto unknown in the world, but fully recognized in the heavens. To know this and the specific and particular things relating to it is the chief thing in the intelligence of the angels there, and on it many things depend which without it as their general principle would not enter distinctly and clearly into the ideas of their minds. Knowing that all the heavens with their societies reflect a single man they call heaven the Greatest Man and the Divine Man; 1 --Divine because it is the Divine of the Lord that makes heaven (see above, 7-12).
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. [Swedenborg's footnote] Heaven in the whole complex appears in form like a man, and for this reason heaven is called the Greatest Man (Arcana Coelestia 2996, 2998, 3624-3649, 3741-3745, 4625).
