And God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. (Genesis 1:31).

1. All order is from the Lord.

2. It exists in all of creation, spiritual and natural.

3. Disorder is the perversion of order, and it exists in hell and in the world.

4. Order is a matter of essence, having to do with love and wisdom, and of form.

2956. Verses 14-15 And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him, My lord, hear me; the land [is worth] four hundred shekels of silver; what is that between me and you? So bury your dead.

'Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him' means a state of receptivity. 'My lord, hear me' means the initial state of receptivity. 'The land [is worth] four hundred shekels of silver' means the price of redemption by means of truth. 'What is that between me and you?' means that he gave his assent yet still wished to achieve it by himself. 'So bury your dead' means here, as previously, emergence from night and consequent rising up again.
