7082. Sunt duo in mundo naturali quae faciunt ibi vitam, nempe calor et lux; et sunt duo in mundo spirituali 1 quae faciunt 2 ibi vitam, nempe amor et fides; calor in mundo naturali correspondet amori in mundo spirituali, et lux in mundo naturali correspondet fidei in mundo spirituali; inde est cum dicitur calor seu ignis spiritualis, quod intelligatur amor; et cum dicitur lux spiritualis, quod intelligatur fides; etiam amor actualiter est calor vitalis hominis, quod enim ex amore incalescat homo, notum est; et fides actualiter est lux hominis, quod enim ex fide illuminetur homo, 3 notum esse potest.

4518. ‘Et ego mortales numeri 1 ’: quod significet quod facile, constat ex significatione ‘mortalium numeri’, quod sint pauci; at cum quale loco quanti in sensu interno secundum seriem intelligitur, tunc significatur facile; nam pauci, cum contra illos ‘congregantur multi’, ut sequitur, ' facile perduntur.

Footnotes:

1. Hebrew [ מַת מִסְפָּר] (methe mispar) =men of number, ' i. e. , men to be counted or few men: Swedenborg usually translates methim by homines. Mortales is probably due to association with Hebrew [מוּת] (muth) to die.
