10068. 'And over his sons and over the garments of his sons' means a reciprocal uniting of Divine Good and Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Human in the lower heavens. This is clear from the consideration that since the sprinkling of the blood taken from the altar and of the anointing oil over Aaron means the reciprocal uniting of Divine Good and Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Human in the higher heavens, 10067, a like sprinkling over Aaron's sons and their garments means a similar uniting in the lower heavens. For what is Divine and the Lord's in the lower heavens is represented by Aaron's sons when what is Divine and the Lord's in the higher heavens is represented by Aaron himself. The reason for this is that the lower heavens spring from the higher ones, like sons from their father, see 7004, 9468, 9473, 9680, 9683, 9780. It should be remembered that the Lord's celestial kingdom is meant by the higher heavens and His spiritual kingdom by the lower heavens, and that the heavens in both kingdoms are distinct and separate, as stated and shown many times. In each kingdom what is Divine and the Lord's is the same, yet different so far as reception by the angels there is concerned.

The foot, as in Deuteronomy 33:3, signifies an inferior principle. To set the right foot on the sea and the left on the earth, as in Revelation 10:2, signifies that the Lord has the universal church under His intuition and dominion.
