Arcana Coelestia #3997
3997. And my righteousness shall answer for me. That this signifies the Divine holiness the Lord had, is evident from the signification of “righteousness,” as being predicated of good (n. 612, 2235); but when, as here, it is predicated of the Lord, it signifies the Divine holiness; for all spiritual and celestial good proceeds from the Divine holy of the Lord.
Jeremiah 22:3
3
Thus says Yahweh: Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to the foreigner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in this place.
