2765. The Lord's severest and inmost temptations are described in verses 1, 3-6, 9-11; the uniting together by means of these of the Human Essence with the Divine Essence, which uniting is Glorification in verses 2, 11-12, 16; the salvation effected from the Lord's Divine Human of those who are spiritual - of those within the Church who have charity and faith, in verses 2, 7-8, 13-19, and of those outside the Church who have good in mind, in verses 20-24.
