2114. That 'all the men of his house, he that was born in the house and he that was the purchase of silver' means all those at that time inside the Church is clear from meaning of those 'born in the house' as celestial people, and from the meaning of 'those purchased with silver' as spiritual people, dealt with above in 2048, 2051, 2052. The fact that they are people inside the Church has also been stated in those paragraphs, for all who are inside the Church, that is, all who constitute the Church, are either celestial or spiritual. But who exactly are celestial and who spiritual, see above in 2088. This final verse of this chapter sums up all that has been stated above, namely that those who have been purified from self-love and love of the world, those inside the Church and also those outside, are made righteous by the Lord. Both groups of people are called 'men of the house' because 'house' in the internal sense means the Lord's kingdom, 2048.
