Arcana Coelestia #5312
5312. 'And all my people shall kiss you on the mouth' means that everything there shall obey it. This is clear from the meaning of 'kissing on the mouth' as accepting and carrying out what is commanded, and so being obedient; and from the meaning of 'all my people' as everything in the natural. 'People' means truths, see 1259, 1260, 3581, 4619, and so cognitions of good and truth, also factual knowledge, present in the natural, since these are truths as they exist within the natural, 5276.
Revelation 20:4
4
I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as didn't worship the beast nor his image, and didn't receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived, and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
