21
At iyong ilalagay ang luklukan ng awa sa ibabaw ng kaban; at sa loob ng kaban, ay iyong ilalagay ang mga kinalalagdaan ng patotoo, na aking ibibigay sa iyo.
Exodo 25:21
Arcana Coelestia # 9567
9567. 'Their pomegranates and their branches shall be of one piece with it, all [shall be part] of it' means that the factual knowledge of good and the powers must spring from the Divine Spiritual, which comes from the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'pomegranates' as factual knowledge of good, dealt with in 9552; from the meaning of 'branches' as truths derived from good, and consequently powers, also dealt with above, in 9555, 9558; and from the meaning of the lampstand, which they 'shall be of one piece with', as the Divine Spiritual from the Lord in heaven and in the Church, dealt with in 9548. From these meanings it is evident that 'the pomegranates and the flowers shall be of one piece with the lampstand' means that the factual knowledge of good and the powers must spring from the Divine Spiritual, which comes from the Lord. What all this implies, see immediately below.
