22
Sapagka't may apoy na nagalab sa aking galit, At nagniningas hanggang sa Sheol, At lalamunin ang lupa sangpu ng tubo nito, At paniningasan ng apoy ang mga tungtungan ng mga bundok.
Deuteronomio 32:22
Explanation of Deuteronomy 32:22
Napsal(a) Alexander Payne
Verse 22. And the influx of the Lord's love into the soul is turned into self-love, which contains in itself infernal hatred against good, and consumes the external man and all that is spiritual within it, when it becomes the ruling and fundamental principle in the soul.
Arcana Coelestia # 6375
6375. 'He binds his young ass to the vine' means truth in the natural for the external Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'binding' as being joined to; from the meaning of 'the vine' as the spiritual Church, dealt with in 1069, 5113, here the external spiritual Church since the description 'the outstanding vine' immediately after means the internal church; and from the meaning of 'an ass' as truth in the natural, dealt with in 2781. From this it is evident that 'he binds his ass to the vine' means a joining through truth in the natural to the external Church.
