5605. They have the Word of the ancient Church, which Moses mentioned, calling it "the wars of Jehovah" [Num. 21:14], and the prophetical enunciations, about which [he speaks] 1 . They said that this Word has been written so that they can be instructed in the details. It was also inspired, but because it ceased to be suitable to subsequent people another word (sic) was written. The nature of this Word is evident from the first Books of Genesis, which are taken from it.

4220. In the next life those who during their lifetime have been receiving Divine things which are the Lord's - that is, who have been receiving His love towards the whole human race, and so those who have been receiving charity towards the neighbour, also those who have been receiving reciprocal love to the Lord - are granted intelligence and wisdom, and indescribable happiness. For they become angels and thus human beings in the truest sense. But the lot in the next life of those who during their lifetime have not been receiving Divine things which are the Lord's - that is, those who have not been receiving His love towards the human race, let alone reciprocal love to the Lord, but have loved, indeed worshipped, only themselves, and as a consequence have had as their end in view the things which belong to self and the world - is different. After a few short periods there those people are deprived of all intelligence and become utterly stupid, being among the stupid ones in hell.
