2003. I, behold, My covenant is with thee. That this signifies the union of the Divine Essence with the Human Essence, is evident from the signification of a “covenant,” as being conjunction (see n. 665, 666, 1023, 1038). That here “covenant” signifies the union of the Divine Essence with the Human Essence, is evident from this signification, and also from the internal sense of what precedes, consequently from the very words, “My covenant is with thee.”
