10091. 'And you shall sanctify the breast of the wave offering' means the Divine Spiritual acknowledged in heaven and in the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'sanctifying' as representing the Lord and holy things that spring from Him, dealt with in 9956, 9988; from the meaning of 'the breast' as the Divine Spiritual in heaven, dealt with in 10087; and from the meaning of 'the wave offering' as endowing with life through acknowledgement, dealt with in 10083, 10089. The Divine Spiritual is Divine Truth in the middle or second heaven, the heaven that is also called the spiritual kingdom.

8103. 'And they travelled from Succoth and encamped in Etham' means the second state after they were delivered. This is clear from the consideration that the travels and encampments of the children of Israel after they had departed from Egypt mean the spiritual states of those delivered by the Lord, who have been the subject above. A change of state is meant by each journey from one place to another, and by each stopping-place. The second state is meant here by travelling from Succoth to Etham, since the first state was meant by travelling from Rameses to Succoth, 7972. Also by 'travels' in the internal sense of the Word states and established patterns of life are meant, 1293, 3335, 5605, and arrangements of truth and good which have to do with life by 'encampments', 4236.
