9819. 'And they shall make Aaron's garments' means through whom the spiritual kingdom exists. This is clear from the meaning of 'Aaron's garments' as a representative sign of the Lord's spiritual kingdom lying adjacent to His celestial kingdom, dealt with above in 9814. The reason why the wise at heart, filled with the spirit of wisdom, were to make those garments is that by these people those in the celestial kingdom are meant, and the spiritual kingdom is what springs from and so what covers that celestial kingdom like a garment next to the body, as also becomes clear from the things that have been stated in 9818.
Matthew 13:47-50
47
"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,
48
which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.
49
So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous,
50
and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth."
