9667. 'And you shall overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings from gold, houses for the bars; and you shall overlay the bars with gold' means a representative sign of the good from which and through which everything derives its existence. This is clear from the meaning of 'overlaying with gold' and 'making from gold' as a representative sign of good, dealt with in 9510, in addition to which good that lends support is meant by 'boards', 9634, good and truth joined together by 'rings', 9493, 9495, and the power of truth from good by 'bars' or 'poles', 9496. The reason why everything should derive its existence from and through the good is that everything throughout creation has connection with good and with truth, and good is that from which truth and so from which everything derives its existence. And good has its origin in the Divine Himself. The Lord's Divine Love constitutes Divine Good; for all good belongs to love. Divine Love itself and so Divine Good is Being itself (ipsum Esse), which is called Jehovah and also the Lord, and the Manifestation (Existere) of that Being is Truth. From all this it may be seen that everything derives its existence from good.

In Genesis 22:13, this signifies with all power as to the truths of faith. (Arcana Coelestia 2832) Horns are mentioned in the Word here and there, and signify the power of truth from good, or, in the opposite sense, of falsity from evil. Here they signify that the spiritual are entangled in external knowledges of the natural with all power as to truth; but are deprived of the power of receiving truth. (Arcana Coelestia 2832)

In Revelation 8:11, this signifies power in speaking, teaching, and writing, consequently, in reasoning and arguing.

'The little horn that rose up,' as mentioned in Daniel 7:3-8, signifies the full perversion of the Word by the application of its literal sense to the confirmation of the love of dominion. It is called 'little,' because such perverted application is not sensibly apparent to the understanding of a person, or to the sight of his spirit.

When spoken of the Lord, a 'horn' signifies omnipotence. It also stands for the power of truth from good.
