10226. 'Shall give the offering of Jehovah' means attribution to the Lord alone. This is clear from the meaning of 'the offering of Jehovah' as that which is the Lord's alone, dealt with in 10093 1 . It is all truths and forms of the good of faith and love, and the arranging and setting of them in order, as is evident from what has gone before, that belong to Him alone.

Fusnotat:

1. The Hebrew word rendered offering at this point has been rendered heave offering in Chapter 29.

9744. 'From fine twined linen' means coming out of the understanding. This is clear from the meaning of 'fine linen' as truth from a celestial origin, dealt with in 5319, 9469. Consequently 'fine twined linen' means the understanding since this consists of and has been so to speak twined out of truths from a celestial origin. For there are two realities with which everything in the whole of creation has connection, truth and good. This is why a person has two mental powers, one dedicated to the reception of truth, the other to the reception of good. The power dedicated to the reception of truth is called the understanding, and the power dedicated to the reception of good is called the will. To the extent therefore that the understanding has been formed from real truths it excels and is 'fine twined linen'; for 'fine linen' is truth from the Divine, 5319. As regards 'fine twined linen', that it therefore means the understanding, see also 9596.
