Seed

  

'A seed' signifies the ultimate and primary levels in a person. It also signifies good and truth from the Lord. In an opposite sense, it signifies falsity of doctrine and hellish falsity. 'A seed' signifies everyone who constitutes the Lord's spiritual kingdom and faith grounded in charity.

In Genesis 12:7, 8:15, 16, 'a seed' signifies love and everyone who has love.

1026. 'With every living soul that is with you' means in general all things which with a person have been regenerated. This becomes clear from what comes before and after, and also from the meaning of the Living One. The expression 'living' is used for everything that has received life from the Lord, and 'living soul' for everything with the regenerate person which lives from Him. For it is according to the life that a regenerate person receives that every part of him has life, every part of his rational thought as well as of his affections. This life as it exists in every part of his thought and speech is visible to angels but not to man.
