Ja muutamat heistä olivat määrätyt pitämään huolta kaluista, kaikista pyhistä kaluista, sekä lestyistä jauhoista, viinistä, öljystä, suitsukkeista ja hajuaineista.
Heaven and Hell #145
145. The angels see the Lord one way, and the Lord sees the angels another way. The angels see the Lord through their eyes, but the Lord looks at the angels in the forehead. The reason for this is that the forehead corresponds to love, and it is through love that the Lord flows into their will while it is through the understanding to which the eyes correspond that He causes Himself to be seen. 1

1. [Swedenborg's footnote] The forehead corresponds to celestial love; therefore in the Word the "forehead" signifies that love (Arcana Coelestia 9936).
The eye corresponds to the understanding, because the understanding is internal sight (Arcana Coelestia 2701, 4410, 4526, 9051, 10569).
For this reason "to lift up the eyes" and "to see" signifies to understand, perceive and observe (Arcana Coelestia 2789, 2829, 3198, 3202, 4083, 4339, 5684).
