Jehovah

  

The Lord, in the simplest terms, is love itself expressed as wisdom itself. In philosophic terms, love is the Lord's substance and wisdom is His form. Of course, we feel the Lord's love and hear His wisdom in many different ways, depending on our state in life and how receptive we are. That's why the Lord has so many different names in the Bible, and is referred to in so many different ways.

9427. 'And a cloud covered the mountain' means the outward aspects of the Word. This is clear from the meaning of 'a cloud' as the outward aspect of the Word or its literal sense, dealt with in the Preface to Genesis 18, and in 4060, 4391, 5922, 6343 (end), 6752, 8106, 8443, 8781, 8814, 8819; and from the meaning of this mountain, which the cloud covered, as Divine Truth emanating from the Lord, thus the Word. And since Divine Truth emanating from the Lord makes heaven, heaven too is meant by that mountain, 9420. So it is that 'a cloud covered the mountain' means the outward sense of the Word covering the inward, as well as meaning heaven.
