20 Mira, oh Jehová, y considera á quién has hecho así. ¿Han de comer las mujeres su fruto, los pequeñitos de sus crías? ¿Han de ser muertos en el santuario del Señor el sacerdote y el profeta?

Palace

  

'A palace,' as in Psalm 144:12, represents the understanding in which truths have a beautiful form. They have a beautiful form when they are from affection for truth. 'A palace,' as in Amos 4:3, signifies the Word, and consequently, the truth of doctrine which is from good. 'A palace,' as in Isaiah 32:14, signifies the whole church regarding truths from good.

7207. 'And I will take you to Myself as a people' means that they will be added to those in heaven who serve the Lord there. This is clear from the meaning of 'taking as a people', when said by Jehovah or the Lord, as receiving among those who are in heaven. For those in heaven are called the Lord's people, which they are also called when they are in the world because so far as their souls are concerned they are at that time too in heaven, see 687, 697, 3255, 4067, 4073, 4077. The reason why the words under consideration here mean that those who belong to the spiritual Church will be added to those in heaven who serve the Lord there is that before the Lord's Coming those people were held back on the lower earth, and were raised into heaven when the Lord rose again, at which point they were added to those there who serve the Lord, see 6854, 6914, 7090 (end).
