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.

9810. 'Aaron' means in respect of the Divine Celestial, that is to say, that which is representative of the Lord in this respect. This is clear from the representation of 'Aaron' as the Lord in respect of Divine Good, dealt with above in 9806. The Divine Celestial is what is Divine and the Lord's in the inmost heaven; for the angels there are called celestial angels, being recipients of Divine Truth in the will part of their mind. Divine Truth emanating from the Lord that has been received in that part is called celestial good, whereas that received in the understanding part is called spiritual good. As regards the nature of each kind of good - celestial good and spiritual good - and what the difference is between them, see the places referred to in 9277, 9543.
