Levi

  

'Levi' signifies the affection of truth originating in good, and consequently, intelligence. 'Levi' signifies truth in practice, which is the good of life. in a negative sense, this signifies the evil of falsity which is opposite to the good of charity. (See Genesis 49:5-7, and Luke 10:29-37) 'Levi,' in the highest sense, signifies love and mercy, in a spiritual sense, he signifies charity in practice, which is good of life, and in a natural sense, association and conjunction.

In Malachi 2:5, 'Levi' represents the Lord regarding divine good.
