16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

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.
