39
Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the isles, shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
Jeremiah 50:39
Arcana Coelestia # 9679
9679. 'And you shall bring the ark of the Testimony in there, within the veil' means the coming-into-being of the inmost heaven within that uniting intermediary. This is clear from the meaning of 'the veil' as the intermediary uniting the two heavens, dealt with in 9670, 9671; and from the meaning of 'the ark of the Testimony' as the inmost heaven, dealt with in 9485; its coming-into-being is meant by 'bringing the ark in there'.
