Verses 1-2. Instruction is given to the man of the church that in the insemination, conception and birth of truth with him there is impurity in the proprium, and purity internally, even as is the case in the course of regeneration

Verses 3-4. But when the state of regeneration is completed there is purity even in the ultimate; and this state of purification is accomplished according to the laws of Order.

Verse 5. Also in the reception and acknowledgement of good the state of purification involves the conjunction of good with truth, and is according to the laws of Order

Verses 6-8. And when the state of purification and regeneration is completed, then the Lord will be worshiped from the good of innocence; there will be reconciliation with the Lord, or of the External with the Internal; and this takes place both with celestial and spiritual men.
