3
Et tu parleras à tous les hommes d'esprit, à chacun de ceux que j'ai remplis de l'esprit de science, afin qu'ils fassent des vêtements à Aaron pour le sanctifier, afin qu'il m'exerce la Sacrificature.
Exode 28:3
Arcana Coelestia #9808
9808. 'From the midst of the children of Israel' means in heaven and in the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'Israel' as those who belong to the Church, thus in the abstract sense the Church itself, dealt with in 4286, 6426, 6637, 6862, 6868, 7035, 7062, 7198, 7201, 7215, 7223, 8805, 9340. And since 'Israel' means the Church it also means heaven; for heaven and the Church make one, and also the Church is the Lord's heaven on earth. Every member of the Church furthermore has heaven within himself when truth and at the same time good which come from the Lord reside in him.
