9988. 'To sanctify them' means to represent the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'sanctifying' as representing the Lord's Divine Human, dealt with in 9956. 'Sanctifying or 'making holy' has this meaning because the Lord alone is holy, and because everything holy emanates from Him, and all sanctification represents Him, 9479, 9680, 9820.
