Arcana Coelestia #10209
10209. 'Once a year' means everlastingly. This is clear from the meaning of 'once a year' as for the whole year; for the expiation on the horns of the altar of incense once a year implied expiation for the whole year. 'A year', like all references to time, means a state and its duration, and also everlastingness. In this instance it is a state of purification from evils by means of the truths of faith; for this state is meant by expiation on the horns of the altar of incense once a year, and all purification from evils, which is regeneration, persists everlastingly not only in the world but also in the next life.
'A year' means that which is everlasting and eternal, see 2906 (end), 7828.
So do 'yesterday', 'today', 'tomorrow', and like references to time, 2838,
Purification from evils, or regeneration, persists to eternity, see the places referred to in 9334, and what has been stated in 10048.
Arcana Coelestia #6984
6984. 'Nor indeed from now as You speak to Your servant' means that he will for that reason lack it into eternity, although the Divine flows into the Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'from now' - that is, from today - as what is eternal or lasts forever, dealt with in 2838, 3998, 4304, 6165, so that it means into eternity since subsequent time is implied; from the meaning of 'speaking' as influx, dealt with in 2951, 5481, 5743, 5797, an influx from the Divine being meant by 'as You (Jehovah) speak'; and from the meaning of 'servant' as the Lord's Human when it had not yet been made Divine, dealt with in 2159 (but because when it had been made Divine it was one with Jehovah, it was then the Lord and Master).
