That this signifies that thus there would be correspondence, is evident from the signification of “ye are upright,” as being that they were in truths; for “uprightness” is truth (see n. 5434, 5437); and as they are then in truths not for the sake of their own advantage, when there is correspondence, therefore this also is signified by, “ye are upright.”
