Arcana Coelestia # 10010
10010. 'And you shall take the anointing oil' means a representative sign of Divine Good in the Lord 1 . This is clear from the meaning of 'oil' as the good of love, and in the highest sense as the Divine Good of Divine Love in the Lord; and from the meaning of 'anointing' as consecrating to represent that good, dealt with above in 9474, 9954.
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. In his rough draft Swedenborg first wrote words meaning a representative sign of the consecration to Divine Good; this was then altered to a representative sign of the consecration of Divine Good. cp 9999; also 10019 and the explanation of that verse in 9999.
