Silver from Tarshish and gold from Uphaz
In Jeremiah 10:9, 'silver from Tarshish' signifies the truth of the Word in its literal sense, and 'gold from Uphaz,' the good of the Word in the literal sense.

The New Jerusalem and its Heavenly Teachings # 159
159. Repentance, and the Forgiveness of Sins
IF we want to be saved, 1 we must confess our sins and repent.
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. The Latin phrase here translated "If we want to be saved" is Qui vult salvari (literally, "he or she who wants to be saved"); it has a creedal ring to it, in that it closely echoes the opening Latin words of the Athanasian Creed, Quicunque vult salvari (literally, "whoever wants to be saved"), and is actually identical to Swedenborg's Latin wording of the creed in The Lord 56 and in his rewording of it in §58 there. His use of this phrase at the beginning of a chapter on repentance implies that repentance is of fundamental importance to a Christian life. For more on the Athanasian Creed and Swedenborg's use of it, see note 1 in New Jerusalem 288. [JSR]
