2166. 'That you may refresh yourselves' means insofar as it is in keeping. This is not so clear from the proximate meaning of these words in the internal sense, though it is nevertheless clear from the whole train of thought. The subject here is Divine perception - that it might draw nearer to the perception possessed by the Lord's human as it was at that time, and that it might bring itself down nearer to His intellectual concepts, by taking on something natural, and also something heavenly or celestial to go with that something natural, insofar as it is in keeping, meant by 'refreshing oneself'. In the proximate sense 'refreshing oneself by means of bread' means being revived, and so enjoying what little of the celestial is in keeping.

2736. I have been informed that genuine conjugial love is innocence itself, which resides in wisdom. With those who have lived in conjugial love wisdom exists more than with all others in heaven, yet when looked at by others they are seen as little children in the bloom and springtime of life; and whatever happens, it is joy and happiness to them. They are in the inmost heaven, which is called the heaven of innocence. Through that heaven the Lord flows into conjugial love, and angels from it are present with men and women who live in that love. They are present also with little children in the first years of their life.
