Heaven and Hell #59
59. THE ENTIRE HEAVEN, AS ONE WHOLE, RESEMBLES ONE MAN
That heaven in its whole complex resembles one man is an arcanum not yet known in the world, but it is very well known in the heavens. To know this and the specific and particular things relating to it, is the chief thing in the intelligence of the angels there. Indeed, on it many things depend which, without it as their general principle, would not enter distinctly and clearly into the ideas of the angels' minds. Since they know that all the heavens with their societies resemble one man they therefore call heaven the GRAND AND DIVINE MAN 1 -Divine because it is the Divine of the Lord that makes heaven (see above 7-12).
Примітки:
1. [Swedenborg's footnote] Heaven in its entirety appears in form as a man, and hence heaven itself is called the GRAND MAN (Arcana Coelestia 2996, 2998, 3624-3649, 3636-3643, 3649, 3741-3745, 4625).
