내가 네 곁으로 지나며 보니 네 때가 사랑스러운 때라 내 옷으로 너를 덮어 벌거벗은 것을 가리우고 네게 맹세하고 언약하여 너로 내게 속하게 하였었느니라 나 주 여호와의 말이니라
에스겔 16:8
에스겔 36:23
23
열국 가운데서 더럽힘을 받은 이름 곧 너희가 그들 중에서 더럽힌 나의 큰 이름을 내가 거룩하게 할지라 내가 그들의 목전에서 너희로 인하여 나의 거룩함을 나타내리니 열국 사람이 나를 여호와인 줄 알리라 나 주 여호와의 말이니라
Arcana Coelestia # 1022
1022. Verses 9-10 And I, behold I, am establishing My covenant with you, and with your seed after you, and with every living soul that is with you - with birds, with beasts, and with every wild animal of the earth with you; from all that are going out of the ark, even every wild animal of the earth.
'And I, behold I am establishing My covenant' means the Lord's presence in charity. 'With you' means a regenerate spiritual person. 'And with your seed after you' means those who are being created anew. 'With every living soul that is with you' means in general all things which with a person have been regenerated. 'With birds' means specifically the things of his understanding. 'With beasts' means specifically the things of his new will. 'With every wild animal of the earth' means lower things of the understanding or will which derive from these. 'With you' here, as previously, means the things that reside with a spiritual regenerate person. 'From all that are going out of the ark' means members of the Church. 'Even every wild animal of the earth' means people outside of the Church.
