Arcana Coelestia # 10091
10091. And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the waving. That this signifies the Divine spiritual acknowledged in heaven and in the church, is evident from the signification of “sanctifying,” as being to represent the Lord and the holy things which are from Him (see n. 9956, 9988); from the signification of “the breast,” as being the Divine spiritual in heaven (n. 10087); and from the signification of “the waving,” as being vivification through acknowledgment (see n. 10083, 10089). The Divine spiritual is Divine truth in the middle or second heaven, which heaven is also called the spiritual kingdom.
Numbers 17:2-8
2
"Speak to the children of Israel, and take of them rods, one for each fathers' house, of all their princes according to their fathers' houses, twelve rods: write every man's name on his rod.
3
You shall write Aaron's name on the rod of Levi; for there shall be one rod for each head of their fathers' houses.
4
You shall lay them up in the Tent of Meeting before the testimony, where I meet with you.
5
It shall happen, that the rod of the man whom I shall choose shall bud: and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against you."
6
Moses spoke to the children of Israel; and all their princes gave him rods, for each prince one, according to their fathers' houses, even twelve rods: and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.
7
Moses laid up the rods before Yahweh in the tent of the testimony.
8
It happened on the next day, that Moses went into the tent of the testimony; and behold, the rod of Aaron for the house of Levi was budded, and put forth buds, and produced blossoms, and bore ripe almonds.
