4300. En de zon rees hem op; dat dit de verbinding van de goede dingen betekent, staat vast uit de betekenis van het verrijzen van de zon, namelijk de verbinding van de goede dingen; dat door het opgaan van de dageraad wordt aangeduid dat de verbinding nabij is of aanvangt, zie nr. 4283; hieruit volgt dat het verrijzen van de zon de verbinding zelf is; want de zon betekent in de innerlijke zin de hemelse liefde, nrs. 1529, 1530, 2441, 2495, 3636, 3643, 4060; dus de goede dingen, want deze zijn van die liefde; wanneer de hemelse liefde zich bij de mens openbaart, dat wil zeggen, wanneer zij wordt bemerkt, dan wordt er gezegd dat de zon hem verrijst, want dan worden de goede dingen van die liefde met hem verbonden.

Face

“The eyes are the windows of the soul.” That's a sentiment with roots somewhere in murky antiquity, but one that has become hopelessly cliché because it is both poetic and obviously true. We feel that if we can look in someone's eyes, we can truly know what they are inside. And it's not just the eyes; really it is the face as a whole that conveys this. As Swedenborg puts it, the face is “man's spiritual world presented in his natural world” (Heaven and Hell, No. 91). Our faces reveal our interior thoughts and feelings in myriad ways, which is why psychologists, poker players and criminal investigators spend so much time studying them. It makes sense, then, that people's faces in the Bible represent their interiors, the thoughts, loves and desires they hold most deeply. We turn our faces to the ground to show humility when we bow in worship; we turn them to the mountains when seeking inspiration; we turn them toward our enemies when we are ready to battle temptation. When things are hard, we need to “face facts,” or accept them internally. When the topic is the Lord's face, it represents the Lord's interiors, which are perfect love and perfect mercy. And when people turn away from the Lord and refuse his love, it is described as the Lord “hiding his face.”
