53. Verse 27 And God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him. 'Image' is mentioned twice here for the reason that faith, which resides in the understanding, is called 'His own image', while love, which resides in the will, is called 'the image of God'. The latter comes second in a spiritual man but first in a celestial man.
Arcana Coelestia #2109
2109. 'A son of thirteen years' means sacred remnants. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'ten' as remnants, dealt with already, in 576, 1988, and from the meaning of 'three' as that which is sacred, dealt with in 720, 901. Consequently the number thirteen, being the sum of ten and three, means sacred remnants. That numbers in the Word mean real things, see 482, 487, 488, 493, 575, 647, 648, 755, 813, 893. What the remnants residing with man are has been stated in 468, 530, 561, 660, 1050, 1906.
