Arcana Coelestia # 10007
10007. 'And the breastplate' means Divine Truth shining forth from the Lord's Divine Good. This is clear from what has been shown regarding the breastplate in 9823, 9863-9873, 9905. 1
Сноски:
1. Swedenborg failed here to provide any explanation of the words you shall gird him with the girdle of the ephod. J.F.I. Tafel, editor of the second Latin edition, suggested - on the basis of what appears in 9828, 9944, 9948, 10005 - a wording that may be rendered a general bond holding all things of love and faith in connection and form within itself, in order that they may all have the same end in view.
