Apocalypse Explained #123
123. That ye may be tried, signifies consequent increase of longing for truth. This is evident from the signification of "being tried," as being to be infested by falsities (of which see in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem 197, 198). But here, since it is said, "the devil shall cast some of you into prison," by which such infestation is meant, so "being tried" signifies increase of longing, and as a consequence, increase of truth, since temptations effect this. (That through the temptations in which man conquers there come illustration and perception of truth and good, see Arcana Coelestia 8367, 8370; that intelligence and wisdom are therefrom, n. 8966, 8967; that truths increase immensely after temptations, n. 6663; with many other things that may be seen in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem 187-201.)
Arcana Coelestia #7269
7269. 'And Aaron your brother will be your prophet' means doctrinal teachings derived from it. This is clear from the meaning of 'prophet' as the truth contained in doctrinal teachings, thus teachings derived from the Word, dealt with in 2534. For more about the representation of 'Aaron' as the teachings of the Church or teachings derived from the Word which present what is good and true, see 6998, 7009, 7089. Since 'prophet' means doctrinal teachings, its meaning in a more precise and limited sense is, in accordance with what has been stated immediately above at the end of 7268, a teacher.
