At tumindig si Moises, at si Josue na kaniyang tagapangasiwa: at si Moises ay sumampa sa bundok ng Dios.

Arcana Coelestia # 9384
9384. 'And all the people answered with one voice' means an acceptance with the understanding by those who truly belong to the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'answering with one voice' as an acceptance with the understanding, for 'answering' means receptivity, 2941, 2957, and 'voice' means the affirmation (confessio) which comes forth from the understanding (things which belong to the mouth, and consequently to speech or voice, correspond to the understanding part of the mind; this is also the part from which voice or speech emanates, whereas the actual affection within speech, which has its origin in the end that is intended or in the love that enlivens, emanates from the will part); and from the meaning of the children of Israel, to whom 'the people' refers here, as the Church, dealt with in 9340, thus those who truly belong to the Church. From all this it is evident that 'the people answered with one voice' means an acceptance with the understanding by those who truly belong to the Church.
Mark 12:29-31
29
Jesus answered, "The greatest is, 'Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one:
30
you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment.
31
The second is like this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
