네 화려함을 인하여 네 명성이 이방인 중에 퍼졌음은 내가 네게 입힌 영화로 네 화려함이 온전함이니라 나 주 여호와의 말이니라
Conjugial Love # 118
118. 2. The Lord is also called Father, and the church, mother. That the Lord is called Father is apparent from the following passages:
...Unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given.... And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, God..., Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
You, Jehovah, are our Father; our Redeemer from of old is Your name. (Isaiah 63:16)
(Jesus said,) "He who sees Me sees (the Father) who sent Me." (John 12:45)
"If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him." (John 14:7)
Philip said..., "...Show us the Father...." Jesus said to him, "...He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?" (John 14:8-9)
(Jesus said,) "The Father and I are one." (John 10:30)
"All things that the Father has are Mine." (John 16:15, cf. 17:10)
"...the Father is in Me, and I in the Father." (John 10:38, cf. 14:10-11,20)
(We showed in full in The Apocalypse Revealed that the Lord and His Father are one as the soul and body are one; that God the Father descended from heaven and assumed a human form in order to redeem and save mankind; and that His human form is what is called the Son who was sent into the world.)
Arcana Coelestia # 6422
6422. 'And hate him, do the archers' means with utter hostility. This is clear from the meaning of 'hatred' as utter hostility, for one who hates another treats him, so far as he can, with utter hostility; and from the meaning of 'the archers' here as those who are opposed to members of the spiritual Church. For one who shoots with the bow or an archer is the spiritual man, for the reason that 'a bow' means matters of doctrine which the spiritual Church possesses, 2686, 2709, and therefore in the contrary sense one who shoots with the bow or an archer is he who as an enemy fights against the spiritual man. For the meaning of one who shoots with the bow or an archer as the spiritual man, see 2686, 2709. From this it is evident that 'hate him, do the archers' means that those led by falsities treat with utter hostility the member of the spiritual Church.
