5076. That they sinned' means that order had become turned around. This is clear from the meaning of 'sinning' as acting contrary to Divine order, anything whatever contrary to that order being sin. Essentially, Divine order is Divine Truth grounded in Divine Good; and this order exists with everyone whose truth is grounded in good, that is, whose faith is grounded in charity, truth being the essence of faith and good the essence of charity. But everyone acts contrary to that order whose truth is not grounded in good, consequently whose truth or else falsity is grounded in evil. Nothing else than this is meant by sin. Here 'they sinned' - the cupbearer and the baker - means that the order in which the external senses existed in relation to interior things had become turned around, so that the former were not in accord or did not agree with the latter.
Napsal(a) Jonathan S. Rose
