8858. A person's whole character is determined by the nature of whatever dominates his life; this is what marks him off from others. His heaven is formed in accordance with it if he is good, or his hell if he is bad. For it constitutes his true will and so the true being of his life, which is unchangeable after death. From all this one may see what the life is like in a person who has been regenerated, and what it is like in one who has not been regenerated.
Arcana Coelestia #9287
9287. 'You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread' means worship and thanksgiving on account of purification from falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'the feast' as worship of the Lord and thanksgiving on account of deliverance from damnation, dealt with immediately above in 9286; and from the meaning of 'unleavened bread' as purification from falsities, for 'yeast' means falsity, 7906, 8051, so that what has been made without yeast or is 'unleavened' means good purified from falsities, 2342, 8058. Regarding this feast, which was also called the Passover, see below in 9292, 9294.
Arcana Coelestia #7240
7240. 'And so it was on the day Jehovah spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt' means the state of the Church at that time, when the command was given through the law from God to those who belonged to the Lord's spiritual kingdom, when they were still in close proximity to those in hell. This is clear from the meaning of 'the day' as the state, dealt with in 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, 2788, 3462, 3785, 4850, 6110, here the state of the Church since that is the subject; from the meaning of 'Jehovah speaking' as the command, here the command given to those who belonged to the Lord's spiritual kingdom; from the representation of 'Moses' as the law from God, dealt with in 6771, 6827; and from the meaning of 'the land of Egypt' as the place where those who belonged to the Lord's spiritual kingdom were molested by falsities. This place was on the lower earth, which is next to the hells, see 7090. 'The land of Egypt' where the children of Israel were, and which was called Goshen, means that lower earth; but the place where the Egyptians were means the surrounding hells, the source of the molestations by falsities.
