Arcana Coelestia #1924
1924. Verse 7. And the Angel of Jehovah found her by a fountain of waters in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur. “The Angel of Jehovah found her,” signifies the thought of the interior man; “the Angel of Jehovah” is here the interior thought from the Lord’s internal; “by a fountain of waters in the wilderness,” signifies natural truth that had not as yet attained to life; “by the fountain in the way to Shur,” signifies that that truth was from those things which proceed from memory-knowledges.
Revelation 21:12
12
having a great and high wall; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
