10115. 'You shall burn what is left with fire' means dispensing with them. This is clear from the meaning of 'anything of the flesh and bread that is left' as that which has not been made their own, as above in 10114; and from the meaning of 'burning with fire' as dispensing with, at this point by means of the loves that belong to the human self, thus by means of the evils which go with those loves. For love in both senses is meant by 'fire'; here the love belonging to the self is meant, which is self-love.

Self-love is meant by 'fire', see 1297, 2446, 5071, 5215, 6314, 6832, 7575.

The human self is nothing other than evil, 210, 215, 694, 874-876, 987, 1023, 1044, 3812(end), 5660.

Love belonging to the self is meant here because 'what is left until the morning' means what has not been joined to good, 10114, and what cannot be joined comes not from the Divine but from the self. The fact that this was unclean, and so was evil, is clear in Moses,

Whoever eats what is left till morning shall bear his iniquity; and that soul shall be cut off from his people. Leviticus 19:7-8.

In the same author,

If any of the flesh of the eucharistic sacrifice is eaten at all on the third day, the one offering it will not be accepted, nor will it be imputed to him. It will be an abomination, and the soul that eats of it will bear his iniquity. Leviticus 7:16-18.

The same thing is likewise clear from the statement that what was left of the manna produced worms and became putrid, Exodus 16:20.

6314. As it is with light, so it is with the heat that is vital to a person's existence. In no way at all does that vital heat originate in the heat radiated by the sun in the world; rather, it originates in spiritual heat, which is love and radiates from the Lord. This heat is what angels have. Consequently the amount of vital heat a person has is determined by the amount of love he has. His body however is warmed by worldly heat, as is his sensory awareness within it; yet vital heat flows into that worldly heat and imparts life to it. Differences in the purity and intensity of this heat are akin to variations in the clarity of the light. This vital heat is what one should understand by the holy fires mentioned in the Word, and therefore heavenly loves are meant by those fires. But in a contrary sense that worldly heat is what one should understand by the fires of hell, and therefore hellish loves and the desires that go with them are meant when these fires are mentioned in the Word.
