6430. 'Who will bless you with the blessings of heaven from above' means blessing with goodness and truth from a source within. This is clear from the meaning of 'the blessings' as the multiplication of truth and fruitfulness of good, for nothing else is meant in the spiritual sense by 'a blessing'; and from the meaning of 'heaven from above' as from a source within, for a person's heaven exists in him interiorly. Indeed a person who leads a good life is as to his interiors living in company with angels, thus in heaven, while as to his exteriors he is living in company with men, thus in the world. When therefore a person accepts goodness and truth which flow in from a source within, coming from the Lord by way of heaven, 'he is blessed with the blessings of heaven from above'.
