The head is the part of us that is highest, which means in a representative sense that it is what is closest to the Lord. Because of this the head represents what is inmost in us, the thing at the center of our being. In most cases this means intelligence and wisdom, since most of us are in a state of life in which we are led by our thoughts and reason. In the case of the Lord, however, it often represents His perfect love. And in many cases the head is used to represent the whole person.

7860. 'And you shall not leave any of it until the morning' means the duration of this state before the state of enlightenment in heaven. This is clear from the meaning of 'the morning' as heaven and the state of enlightenment there, dealt with in 2405, 3458, 3723, 5740, 5962. 'Leaving nothing of it until that time' plainly means the duration of that state, for at that time the prior state will come to an end. As has been shown already, the subject in the internal sense is the deliverance of those belonging to the spiritual Church from molestations. The state of their deliverance is represented by the Passover, and the state of their being raised to heaven by being led into the land of Canaan, this latter state being meant by 'the morning'. These two states are entirely different from each other; they are like the state of the means to the end, and that of the end itself. When the state of the end itself is reached what belongs to the state of the means will have been accomplished. From this it is evident why they were commanded not to leave any of it till morning.
