61. Everything that has to do with cognitions of faith is called spiritual, and everything that has to do with love to the Lord and towards the neighbour is called celestial. The former belong to man's understanding, the latter to his will.

2848. 'Your seed' means spiritual people who, having that good within them that springs from faith, are saved by the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'seed' as faith that is the expression of charity, dealt with in 1025, 1447, 1610, 1941, or what amounts to the same, those members of the human race who possess faith that is the expression of charity, that is, who are spiritual people. They are also called by the Lord 'the seed' and 'the sons of the kingdom', in Matthew,

He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man, but the seed are the sons of the kingdom. Matthew 13:37-38.
