Voice

  

'Voice' signifies what is announced from the Word. 'Voice' often refers and is applied to things that cannot have a voice, as in Exodus 4, Nahum 3:2, Psalms 93:3-4.

A 'voice' signifies annunciation, and in a positive sense, annunciation from the Word, which is called 'the voice of Jehovah,' as is shown in Psalms 29:3-9 and Psalms 68:33, where 'voice' denotes divine truth, so the Word and annunciation from it.

'Voice' signifies the quality of interior things.

'Voice,' as in Revelation 19, signifies joy in worship, confession, and celebration of the Lord.

'A great voice heard in heaven,' as in Revelation 12:10, signifies the joy of the angels of heaven from the light and wisdom.

'A great voice,' as in Revelation 16:1, signifies the divine command.

'A great voice out of the temple of heaven,' as in Revelation 16:17, signifies a manifestation from the Lord out of the inmost of heaven.

'A great voice,' as in Revelation 21:3, signifies speech proceeding from love.

'One voice,' as in Revelation 9:13, signifies a divine command.

10001. 'You shall bring to the door of the tent of meeting' means the joining together of the two, in heaven. This is clear from the meaning of 'bringing' as presence and togetherness, as above in 9997, at this point the joining together of Divine Good and Divine Truth from the Lord, in heaven; from the meaning of 'the door' as introduction, dealt with in 8989; and from the representation of 'the tent of meeting' as heaven, dealt with in 9457, 9481, 9485, 9963. The reason why the young bull and the rams, the unleavened bread, cakes, and wafers in the basket, and Aaron together with his sons were presented at the door of the tent of meeting, and why the latter were then clothed with the garments and anointed there, and the former were offered on the altar there, was that the place where the door of the tent of meeting was, represented the marriage of Divine Good to Divine Truth. For the altar, which also was positioned before the door of the tent, represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good, while the tent of meeting represented the Lord in respect of Divine Truth. Consequently the place before the door of the tent represented the joining together of goodness and truth, a joining together that is called the heavenly marriage. Regarding the altar of burnt offering, that it represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good, see 9964; and regarding the tent of meeting, that it represented the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, 9963. The fact that the altar was positioned there is clear in Moses,

And Moses placed the altar of burnt offering at the door of the tent. Exodus 40:29.

As for the joining together of goodness and truth, that this is the heavenly marriage, and that in that marriage heaven consists, see 2173, 2508, 2618, 2803, 3004 and following paragraphs, 3132, 952, 4434, 6179. From all this it is now evident that bringing Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting means the joining together of the two, that is to say, of Divine Good and Divine Truth from the Lord, in heaven.
