664. "Quia justae et verae viae Tuae, Rex sanctorum," significat quod omnia quae procedunt ad Ipso sint justa et vera, quia est Ipsum Divinum Bonum et Divinum Verum in Caelo et in Ecclesia. - Per "vias" significantur vera ducentia ad bonum (176); et per "Regem," cum de Domino, significatur Divinum Verum, et per "Regem sanctorum" Divinum Verum in Caelo et Ecclesia ab Ipso; per "sanctos" enim significantur qui in Divinis veris a Domino sunt (173, 586); inde per "justae et verae viae Tuae, Rex sanctorum" significatur quod omnia quae procedunt a Domino justa et vera sint, quia est ipsum Divinum Verum in Caelo et in Ecclesia. Dominus vocatur "Rex" in Divino Humano Suo, quia Hoc est Messias, Unctus, Christus, Filius Dei; quod "Messias" in lingua Hebraea sit "Christus" in lingua Graeca, et quod "Messias" seu "Christus" sit Filius Dei, videatur supra (520); quod "Messias" significet et Regem et Unctum in lingua Hebraea, notum est. Quod Dominus ut Rex sit Divinum Verum, est quia, "Rex" significat illud (20, 483); inde est quod per "reges" significentur qui in Divinis veris a Domino sunt, (Apocalypsis 1:6; 5:10),; Ex eo est, quod Caelum et Ecclesia dicantur "Regnum" Ipsius; tum quod Adventus Ipsius in mundum dicatur "Evangelium Regni." Caelum et Ecclesia dicuntur "Regnum Ipsius," (Daniel 2:44; 7:13-14, 27; Matthaeus 12:28; 16:28; Marcus 1:14-15; 9:1; 15:43; Luca 1:33; 4:43; 8:1, 10; 9:2, 11, 27; ¹ 10:11; 16:16; ² 19:11; 21:31; 22:18; 23:51);

et Adventus Ipsius dicitur "Evangelium Regni," (Matthaeus 4:23; 9:35; 24:14).

Sed plura de his videantur in Doctrina Novae Hierosolymae de Domino. Quod Dominus dicatur "Rex," patet ex his locis:

"Illi cum Agno pugnabunt, sed Agnus vincet illos, quia est Dominus dominorum et Rex regum," (Apocalypsis 17:14);

Sedens super Equo albo vocatur Verbum, et Nomen Ipsius est "Dominus dominorum et Rex regum," (Apocalypsis 19:13, 16; ³ Daniel 2:47);

"Dixit Nathanael, Tu es Filius Dei, Tu es Rex Israelis," (Johannes 1:49); ⁴

"Quando venerit Filius Hominis in gloria Sua, sedebit super Throno gloriae Suae; et dicet Rex illis qui e dextris et qui e sinistris," (Matthaeus 25:31, 34, 41); ⁵

"Clamarunt, Osanna, Benedictus Qui venit in Nomine Domini, Rex Israelis," (Johannes 12:13);

Pilatus quaesivi Jesum, num esset Rex; "Respondit Jesus, Rex sum Ego, Ego in hoc natus sum, et in hoc veni in mundum," (Johannes 18:37);

"Regem in pulchritudine Sua videbunt oculi tui; Jehovah Rex noster, Ille salvabit nos," (Esaias 33:17, 22);

"Ego Jehovah Sanctus vester, Creator Israelis Rex vester," (Esaias 43:15);

"Sic dixit Jehovah Rex Israelis, ex Redemptor ejus Jehovah Zebaoth, Ego Primus et Ultimus, et praeter Me non Deus," (Esajas 44:6);

"Jehovah erit in Regem super totam terram," (Sacharias 14:9; Psalm. 47:3, 7-9 (B.A. 2, 6-8));

"Attollite portae capita vestra, ut ingrediatur Rex gloriae: Jehovah Zebaoth Hic Rex gloriae," (Psalm. 24:7-10);

"Suscitabo Davidi Germen justum, Qui Regnet Rex, et faciat Judicium et Justitiam in terra," (Jeremias 23:5; 32:15).

(Praeter alibi, ut Esaias 6:5; 52:7; Jeremias 10:7, 10; 46:18; Ezechiel 37:22, 24; Zephanias 3:15; ⁶ Psalm. 20:10 (B.A. 9); Psalm. 45:12, 14, 16 (B.A. 11, 13, 15); ⁷ Psalm. 68:25 (B.A. 24); Psalm. 74:12).

Poznámky pod čarou:

In Genesis 14:1, kings signify apparent goods and truths having the upper hand. In the next verse, they stand for the dominant evils and falsities against which the Lord fought as he passed He grew up on Earth.

In Genesis 14:3, we see that these evils and falsities were unclean; and in Genesis 14:4, that they burst forth later. (Arcana Coelestia 1661-1664).

In Genesis 14:14-15, this signifies that the Lord gained victory over them the evils represented earlier in the chapter. (Arcana Coelestia 1711-1715)

In Isaiah 33:17, a king signifies seeing genuine truth. (Apocalypse Explained 304[31])

In Revelation 9:11, a king signifies one who is in truth from an affection for what is good, and abstractly that truth itself -- here, in the opposite sense. (Apocalypse Revealed 440)
